| The event OF tho week. from tile stnndpoine;
| Of tho honest sporting man. who wants others
| to be rs honest as he and give him the wQrtnV
OF his money. was TIE matching OF Petef'
Maher, the Irish champion. and Jack Demp-]
sey. the ex-middle- weight champion. who has
ever held a high place in tho respect OF New
Workers.. whether victorious or defeated.
Makers exact calibre has been In doubt up to1
| now. notwithstanding his quick work with
| Jack Smith and Sailor Brown. His style has
been universally acknowledged 10 be Of high
| order 1t was seen ut the Madison Square
Garden that 1t was simply play for him ~
| beat tho two men who wore pue
against him. He did not have to exert
| himself to knock those follows out for they
| were each unable to make any show OF defonco|
| against the clever Irishman. Still. IL is noel
known how Peter will do with fellow who can
| give good punch and at tho same time take
| humping without n grunt. When jack
| Dempsey goes against him, Maher will find no.
| He will gaze upon an experienced boxer and
| fighter. who. In almost every contest has,
given away from four to seven pounds. and
whose skill and pluck are known the world
over II Maher clearly outclasses Dempsey.
Messrs. Mitchell and Slavin will be laughed
at II they again say. that Peter has
| no business with either Of them. Maherl
has already become q favorite with
the patrons OF boxiana. as was evinced by the1

proba ly he will have many supporters on Jan.
IA. but Dempsey has been under inspdctioni
for 80 long. and has made It clear that he
possesses such sterling worth. that few viii
believe it possible that Potter Maher or any.s
body else can defeat him without question hi
four rounds This should be great exhibit.
