New York Sun.

"That's about as lively as you can see it anywhere" remarked veteran attendant at prize fights recently.
 The veteran and about 50 other spectators were looking on at a box ing match in the back parlor of the brown-stone house at Fifth avenue and Thirtieth street. The visitors had gathered on an invitation from Mir. William Muldoon for the purpose of witnessing scientific work in his new school of athletic exercises, where, as he announces, fiat and corpulent men can be reduced to normal weight and size, and perfect training quarters furnished to all professional athletes"
 In the middle of the floor stood Prof. Austin, stripped to the waist; facing him was John Cash, also bare to his Aips. The men were each of middle Wbight, and wore the regula- ton boxing gloves. They were press ing against each others arms while regaining breath after a fierce ex- change of blows, which had brought a crimson flush to both their faces and breasts.
 Il wouldn't have missed this for fifty dollars" continued the frosty haired sport. "When Cash gets his blood up he must fight, and the Pro- lessor has to display all his science to keep him off"
 At it the pugilists went again. The Professor struck out the straighter and possessed the better wind. In the second round he gave Cash three fla cers in succession. Cash closed in and returned them. Then the Professor gave blow which sent Cash down on line of men who were sitting on a rolled up mattress at one side of the room. Two gentlemen keeled over, and two silk hats were smashed.
 Cash resumed operations, hammer and tongs, the Professor closing in on him with rattling counter blows. Break, break ? shouted Mir. Robert Smith, master of ceremonies. The men broke, shook hands, and retired after three as spirited rounds as ever took place on Brussels carpet.
 George Fullames and Patrick Jor- dan, naked to the waist, were the sec ond. pair to spar with gloves. Full james is light weight, while Jordan is heavily-built slogger. Both are game prize fighters. Although Full james is suffering from rheumatism in his limbs, he dashed at his opponent like hornet, striking him over the right eye and swelling it badly in the first round. Jordan got in a few facers and heavy body blows, which made FulGames ejaculate "Ugh," while he was playing lively tattoo on Jordan face. In the second round, FulIames made effective double hits, Jordan retaliating with occasional smashers on breast and head. A fierce wind up ended with both men gasp ing for breath.
 Henry McDermott and Michael Null lery, good-sized, strong-hitting fel- lows, boxed in undershirts and tights. They spared carefully at the start, but when their counter blows took eff feet they seemed to shake the house. Warming up to his work, Mullery struck out with his right, aiming a hot blow for McDermott's head with such force that when McDermott lodged with the agility of cat, Mullery went head-long into a group of men in a corner.
 Come, boys," said Mir. Smith" wind up by showing the gentlemen what you can do.'
 Give and take, with hot counter hits were in order, until Mr. Smith shouted: Break, break, and shake hands,"
 Messrs. Muldoon and Cash wrestled ill bout of catch as catch can. It was soon seen that Cash was no match for Muld6on. In a short time Mul. doom raised Cash in the air until his feet struck into and jingled the pend- ants of the large chandelier which hung high in the center of the room.
 To show his immense strength, Null doom bridged his body by resting on his heels and the back of his head, palms up. Cash placed foot on each of Muldoon's hands, and then the mighty wrestler raised him from the floor over his head.
 Other feats of strength filled the time to late hour.
