NEIHART, Feb. 1l.-Considerable in
terest in athletic circles is being taken
in the contest between Jack Foley of
Neihart and Whitaker of Monarch,
which is to take place at Crawford's hall
on next Monday night. The prospects
for a good fight are favorable, as each OF
the contestants has Hitherto been vic
torious in all pugilistic encounters.
The fight is to take place under The aus
pieces of the Neihart Athletic society for
a purse of 500 and the gate receipts.
Both men are reported to be in excellent
condition and will enter the ring weigh
ing about 1S5 pounds. The boys are
prepared to back Jack to win, and as the
Monarch delegation will bring a con
siderable amount of money to place on
their champion, the betting, which is
now quoted about even, may be expected
to tie pretty lively.
