PETER MAHER WINS.


Boston, MASS. May 2S.-Peter Maher,
the Irish champion, defeated George
Godfrey, the colored boxer Of this city,
in six rounds, before $500 people at the
Casino in this city tonight. II was a
contest replete with hard hitting, in
which Maher had the best of it.
In the first round Maher had it all his
own way, landing lett jabs, while God
frey could not land, leal'or counter 1t
looked as if Maher would win easily in
one or two rounds more. Maner con.
tinued on the aggressive, landing left
jabs and right swings, forcing Godfrey
around, the ring.
In the next round Godfrey took a
brace, and he met Maher with some
good jabs. In the fifth Godfrey landed
some hard left BLOWS and right swings
and counters, cleverly escaping Makers
leads, and il looked as thought he would
last ten rounds. Godfrey had all the
best OF this round.
In the nextround, however, the battle
was decided against Godfrey. Maher
started in with "a right and left swing,
staggering Godfrey. He was not slow
in following up his advantage, and he
forced Godfrey around the ring, finally
flooring him. Godfrey got up, but was
dazed, and Maher landed again with
both hands on face and jaw and God.
frey went down. He rested on one
elbow and was counted out The last
round lasted two minutes and So seconds.
