From a convict in a debtor’s prison
to a iriilllonaire. a member or partial
meat and a winner of the Derby-this
summarizes the career of John Gully,
in many ways the most remarkable
man who ever held the title of cham-
pion of England. Gully was the first
professional pugilist to attain promi
nence as a lawmaker, but at a later
period John Morrissey, the American
exchamplon. was elected to the Unit
ed States: congress, and there have
been and are a number of former box
era in state legislatures.

Used New Gun.
The fact that be attained his great
est derire, by capturing the event is
more remarkable because he used a
gun that he had never used in any
contest. There was nothing particu-
larly new in this circumstance so far
as Henry was concerned, because.
among his own friend's. his proclivity
to change guns in contests was hiatu-
td for the fact that he was never able
to get above the RS per cent class.
ilut it seems that the Elkhart barber
knew what he was about. all the time.
He was just looking for the ”kill
gun. the one first was suited to the
physical and phyohologloal John Dean
Henry. He found it a tow hours be

To win the handicap. the i-liithari
man had to defeat Henry J. Pender»

four times in succession. won the trap
shooting championship of New York
state. Pendergast was back on the
22 yard line but he was sure and con-
fident. Henry, shooting from the H
yard mark. was nervous and doubtful
of his chunk. llut he won the event
with the new gun. and now he's
through changing guns.
