mare sired by Peter the Great, gave
the tatent one of the worst upsets of
the year on the Grand Circuit by
winning the D. and C. stake at Dev

Pearl Benboe, Tommy Murphy's
mare, which has been beaten but once
this year, was a topheavy favorite,

over Pearl Benboe at Columbus, was
the one to give Taurida a fight, and
won the second heat.
Anna Bradford Girl won the Devon
shire sweepstakes In straight heats
without difficulty. In each heat the

break.

second money when Vic Flemming
won the first and third heats with

Dempsfcy Will Not

Champion Says He Wants the
Money and Has No Thought
of Quitting Ring Un
defeated.
By DAMON RUNYON.
ARATOGA. N. T.,
Aug. 6.—"Do you
ever think of re
tiring with the
title?" the writer
asked Jack Demp
sey last night.
"No," replied
the cha/npion. "1
never do. I'll re
tire only when
some fellow hits
me on the chin
and taken the
champions hip
away from me.
Maybe I won’t re
tire even then, unless I’m too old
to fight any more.”
We were sitting on the veranda of
Luther's hotel at White Sulphur
Springs, looking out over Saratoga
Lakp. The moonlight was gleaming
on the placid water of the mountain
basin.
It was a night for romance and all
that sort of thing. A low murmur
of cooing voices came from the dark
corners of the veranda, w.th an oc
casional sharp exclamation and a
slapping sound, as a vocarlous mos
quito spueezed through the veranda
and snatched at an exposed ankle.
Likely to Talk of Retiring.
What Dempsey said about retiring
is unimportant, although it is the
first expression the writer has ever
heafd from ^him on the subject. Most
champions are g.ven to the conversa
tion about retiring. Of course, they
rarely retire, but they love to talk of
retiring.
The only retired champion on record
is in Saratoga at this very writing.
He paid us a visit today. He is Jack
McAuliffe. once lightweight, who
quit the game with his t.tle intact.
McAuliffe Is now pursuing the races,
but he does a little writing on the
side, and will pay considerable at
tention to Dempsey from now on.
"Why should I retire?" Dempsey
asked, to get back at last to the topic
with which this tale opens. "My idea
In taking up professional boxing was
to make money. Why should I retire
as long as (I can continue to make
money. If I beat Flrpo there are
at least two other good shots in eight
for me, one with Harry Wills, an
other in a return bout with Tom Gib
bons.
"These two bouts will mean s lot
of money. Wouldn't I be foolish to
retire with all that money in sight?
Anyway. l ift not tired of fighting
I'm still young, and I want to keep
going.
"I'll guarantee I'll never lay off
again as I did after the Carpenuss
fight. I'll fight as often as Kearns
can get me the matches from now on.
until someone knocks* me over. Then,
and only then, will I think of retiring,
and It depends a lot on circumstances
if I retire even then."
"But don't you ever think of get
ting married and settling down?" the
writer asked, to draw the story out a
little longer.
"I wouldn't get married as long as
I'm in this game.” said Dempsey
firmly.
"After I'm through, maybe—but,
anyway, I'm not going to retire until
I get retired. Just remember that."
