Mr. Corbett. Aside from his being the champion boxer of the world, Mr. Corbett is a gentleman and a scholar—he certainly merits the name "Gentleman Jack." He spoke mostly in regard to his training, which is kept up to a certain extent all the time. On account of his late hours, he sleeps some during the day. He is always careful in regard to his diet, eating but little which is rich. He usually spars with O'Donnell, wrestles with McVey, takes runs and walks and devotes a good part of his time to his favorite, the punching bag. By his general appearance and by the development of the muscles one may readily see that Corbett is in good condition and that he will be ready to defend the championship against "Fitz". Mr. Corbett has made a host of friends and it is hoped that the management of the opera house will secure him after he has conquered Fitz and is the retired champion of the world. As he says this will be his last fight.

Saturday the streets of Lawrence had a livelier appearance than they have had for a long time. It was a crisp sunny morning and everybody seemed to be on the street. The Indians as is their custom on Saturday morning, and a large crowd of people were down from Topeka, among them quite a number of pretty girls. But the thing that gave color to the crowd was the herds of buxom lassies and bashful swains from Baldwin and vicinity. Great crowds could be seen staring in show windows, particularly around a window of bright colored "galuses" were these honest, awkward guiltless sons of toil noticed pensively eating peanuts by their large handfuls. They undoubtedly enjoyed their visit in town to their utmost. Not an accident was reported during the day. A company of militia having defended them from any raids of the light fingered gentry. Our country cousins are always welcome.
