This may account for the many desertions to the | East of exponents of the manly art.

As the National and Birmingham clubs ‘have already n for the en- | gagement, there is no doubt it will take | place.

Granville and Otts are both two- handed fighters, with science enough to please the most seasoned ring-goer. The boys will weigh in at 130 pounds, and will compete for a valuable trophy. As very meager telegraphic reports were received in this city of the Daly- Lavigne battle last week, The Call pub- lishes a report of the fight by rounds. Although the laws of Philadelphia do not permit a decision being given, the opin- ions of those who witnessed the exciting contest were divided as to who had the best of {t. The main question to be de- cided was, whether the Kid's body blows or Daly’s constant tattoo on Lavigne's face did the most execution. Following is the report of the fight by rounds: First round—No time was lost sparring for an opening. Both men led, landed lefts, and then clinched. Lavigne again ,used his left hard. Then Daly got in his work in the shape of a right-hand uppercut, almost flooring La- vigne. “Lavigne stopped an uppercut. A mx- up followed, both exchanging rights and lefts.

Fourth round—Lavigne looked wicked as he came up, and before the round was finished almost had the Wilmington delegate on_the road to defeat. After a clinch, and after both had landed blows on the neck, Lavigne put a hard right on the face and left on the jaw. He followed this up with a left body blow. The Kid again got in a terrific body punch, so hard that he almost fell from the effort. Both men exchanged blows, but Daly had the better of it. Doth'landed on the Jaw as the round closed.

Jeffries Had a Nice Picnic and Referee Wand Saved a Life. The Call was not far off the mark when it sald that Mexican Pete, the ‘*‘cham- pion” of Montana, was a ‘“‘dub” of the worst kind imaginable, and that the Olympic Club showed very rank judg- ment when it matched him against Jeff- ries—a powerful man who has already proven his ability as a prize-fighter. But this is not the first time the club has disappointed its members, who last evening left the big gymnasium thor- oughly disgusted with the show and the men who are selected by themselves as the club’s fighting match-makers. Poor old Peter Jackson should never have been signed to fight Jeffries. There is not another club in America that would have been guilty of making such a stapid | blunder. But the Olympic’s able-bodied match- makers, not- satisfled with the ridicule they had been subjected to after the Jack- son-Jeffries farce, actually fell into an- other mud hole when they signed Jeffries and Mexican Pete for a twenty-round lb'llppodr?me. (How thankful Jeffries must e, too. The match-makers had seen Pete “tried- out” before he was booked for the big game, end they expressed an opinion that he was a “‘coming man” and would give his. MF opponent “a hard argument.” Well, he did in a way, but not just ex- actly as the men who paid $3 had ex- pected. The man from Mama.nagtve up all hope of life when he had a good look at his op- ponent in fighting rig. An account of the fight cannot be given for the very good reason that there was no fight to report. Pete sheltered his dark-skinned face with his gloves each time Jeffries made an attempt to land, and although spun about like a top from cuffs and pushes, the Mexican kept his face and neck al ways guarded. In the third round Jeffries determined to knock the spots out of Pete's guard, under instructions from Captain Djunoy, ADVERTISEMENTS. i The Kentuckian’s gift to the rest of the country is the imous Burley leaf, from which is manufactured -BOOT JACK the K —(therefore the most expensive). ‘Mall 38 silver g 1] Boot Jack to PLUGC TOBACCO high grade chewing tobacco per strips from 5-cent cuts of ‘manufacturers and receive in. in return a handsome aluminum pocket tobacco case.

FriEND., What was the matter with L. I gave a handful of Ripans Tabules to an old gentleman of Brooklyn, and he said their effect upon him has beea him, anyway ? He is a weigher, and works about the wharves and ware- houses. He said that always after eating he would be troubled with gases, and there would be a sensation as of a load on the pit of his stomach which made him very uncomfortable. Well, what good did the Ripans do hira? I don't know how they did it, but he says they were effect- ive from the start, and he was surprised to see how quickly one would give him relief. I think it is quits remarkable, for he is a confirmed dyspeptic and he positively smeered when I gave him the Ripans. He § didn’t seem to think anything could reach his case.
