BATTLE.

THE MACE AND coBURN PRIZE F1GHT-A DRAWN
BATTLE.
MONTGOMERY STATION, MISS, Nov. 30.-The
prize fight between Mace and Coburn took
place here to-day. About 500 persons were pres
ent. The affair resulted in drawn battle, and
all bets are off. Neither man seemed anxious
to fight At the close of the eleventh round
the referee ordered them to their corners, and
advancing to the centre of the ring said: ''This
crowd came here to see fight. You have had
every chance offered but seem afraid of each
other therefore declare the fight draw and
all bets off,
After the referees decision, Mace crossed
over to Columns corner and patted Joe on the
back, saying, s'Cobum is the best man 1 ever
met in the ring"
Mace has severe confusion just above the
left lip, and acknowledges that Coburn struck
him there ten times Coburn has short cut
above the left eye and scratch on the nose I'M
der the right eye. Otherwise they show no
punishment. In the second round Mace injur-
ed two fingers Of his left band whom he hit Co
burns head He gives this as the reason for
hugging his corner and acting on the defensive.
Mr.. Hunt gives the time of the fight as three
hours and thirty-eight minutes. The specta-
tors seem well satisfied with the referees de-
ciSiOn.
