MCAuline's Crowd.

Jack McAulifie, Billy Madden, his trainer,
and the usual galaxy of bad men from Bode
landed in StreatOr on Sunday night, and on
Monday evening the head punching talent OF
Streator was in its glory. Just think Of it,
it. the head pounding talent, was actually
delegated to entertain the redOubtable Jack
McAuliffe and the unlocked Billy Myers At
one breadth. Was the talent proud? Did
the plugulies who had wadei around Strea.
tor on their uppers for the past two years,
hoping against hope, that they may now and
then absorb ray of Myers glory, feel very
proud? Well hum!
Of course the business men and attorneys
and the city council and the--and the
whole town wanted to see McAuiTe. SO
when the hall in which he was to exhibit
was thrown open, the standing room only
sign adorned the door. A long line OF
doughty amateurs pounded one another, and
at length McAulifie and Madden "put up
their dukes McAuli1'e wasn't in the
mood to give himself away" and the sport
was rather tame.
The final arrangements for the fight were
made at the Plumb House. The spot is to be
located by Kennedy, Myers hacker, and
Madden, somewhere within 200 miles oil
Chicago. The fight is for $500 per side
and the gate receipts, and the winner is
almost certain to carry away about $1,000.
Each is TO weigh one hundred and thirty
three pounds or within two pounds Of the
others weight, and the Marquis Of Queens.
bury rules will prevail. 1t is said that when
Myer called on McAulife at the Plumb
House, hot words passed between them over
taunt given by McAuliffe upon Billy's in
ability to secure prominent trainer. There
fore the fight will be for "blud,' red, red
"blud."
