Crescent Club Ope.Iing.

New ORLEANS, Dec. 90 The opening
event of the new Crescent City Athletic
club is to take place this evening and
both men are reported to be in splendid
condition for the contest. The fighters
are Joe Fielder aud Andy Bowen and
they are to meet for purse of 5000, of
which $500 goes to the loser and are to
weigh in at 1873 pounds. Bowen has been
beaten three times; once by Jimmie
Carol. once by Billy Myer and
once by Austin Gibbons. He has whipped
every other man he ever fought and ibis
string of victories is a big one. Fielden
is an Englishman who has for several
years been making his home in Washing
ton where he is considered an extremely
clever boxer. He has no record OF note,
and his boxing exhibition against Bob
Fitzsimmons in New Orleans some years
ago is the only criterion by which the
sporting fraternity judge him. He made
a splendid showing against the middle
weight, even though it was only a. friendly
bout. Fielden has been trained Tor this
fight by Prof. James Robertson. The
odds are on Bowen.
