Articles Of Agreement Signed Las t
Saturday, and $5Oa Side Paid rs
Forfett.-The "Scrap" to Come on the
goth Instant.
According to the announcement
published In the TIMES George Geo.
CHAN, alias Owney, and William H.
White met in the Theater saloon last
Saturday evening, and arranged the
preli,ninaries of their fight. The fol.
lowing articles of agreement were
drawn up and signei by the parties
whose names are appended:
HALEY, Dec, 18th, 1883.
To WHOM IT May CONCERN:
Know that we, the undersigned, do
hereby agree to HARD GLOVE fight
for the sum Of two hundred and fifty
dollars side, the fight to be governed
by the rules of the London Prize Ring,
under the following conditions:
LIST. The fight shall take place at
the Haley Theater, on Saturday even
ing, Dec. 29th, 1888. If either of US
fail to appear at the required time the
one making such default will forfeit
his final deposit to the one appearing.
The said final deposit to be made the
day before the fight.
End. That d. A. Quantrell be APP
pointed final stakeholder and all
moneys shall be deposited in his hands
until the match is decided.
3rd. The fight must be decided in
favor of the best man, as it cannot be
a DRAW. The winner to take all the
gate money, less expenses.
SIGNED: WILLIAM H. WHITE.
GEORGE GEOGHAN.
WITNESS:
q. w. Taylor.
JOHN CONDRON.
AS soon as the articles of agreement
were signed, the editor of the TINES
paid over to Mr.. Quantrell the 800
that had been deposited with him as
forfeit.
William Rabjohn will act as second
for Geoghan, but White has not de-
cided upon his second. The referee
will be chosen the night of the fight
The contestants have both been in
the ring before, but White prefers
that his record be not published, and
that he remain "The Unknown" until
after the fight.
After the articles had been signed,
Geoghan and White were weighed.
The former tipped the beam at 1871
pounds, and the latter at 1851. Since
then the men have been in active
training, SO that they probably do
not weigh over las pounds each.
Their fighting weight will probably be
1876 or Whereabouts.
Both men are ambitious to win,
and the "scrap" will be we'll worth
seeing.

HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

In a SOLID GOLD WATCH, aside from
the necessary thickness for engraving and
polishing, large proportion Of metal is
needed only to stifien and hold the engray-
ed portions in place, and supply strength.
The surplus gold is actually needless. In
james BosS Patent Gold Watch Cases this
WASTE is saved, and soLIprrY and
STRENGTH increased by simple process
at one-half the cost. A plate of SOLID
GOLD is soldered on each side Of plate
Of hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this the cases, backS
centers, bezels, etc, are cut and shaped by
dies and formers. The gold is thick
enough to admit Of all kinds Of chasing,
engraving and engine turning. These
cases have been worn perfectly smooth by
use withoL; removing the gold. 71is is
