Female Prize Fight.

fight according to the rules of the ring,
except hair pulling and biting allowed,
took place between two women at Som
erville, Massachusetts, at an early hour
this morning. The contestants on their
appearance in the ring were clad in the
conventional costume of CATERS, stock
ings and drawers, wearing nothing else
to speak of beyond waterfalls and mag
meta curls. AT the very first round one
of them named Sarah Chapman, became
frightened and jumped out of the ring,
but her hackers drove her in again, and
she eventually won the fight. AT the
twenty. first round her opponent, Mollie
Jones, both of them having been severe
ly punished, begged her seconds in
Gods name to take her away, and so
the fight and the money, fifty dollars,
were awarded to Sarah.
