auspices of the united trio'' or Columbus
Club was continued at Woods Hall last
night. There was a fair attendance,
and the sport was the finest that has
been witnessed for many months. There
was one clean knockout and several
quits The boxers were in good form,
and every one of them put up a good
fight for the prizes, which are offered
by the club. 1t was about nine O'Clock
when the sport began. TIL best of or
der was preserved by the police, under
Captain Farrier, and everything passed

in favor of Fagen- At the
conclusion of the third ronnd he was
declared a winner. The second bout
brought J. Pitts of New York and f.
Mayo of the Biff Club together. Both
were clever, and in the first two ROUNDS
,Iayo appeared to be a sure winner. In

ton of cleverness of the evening.
In the third bout C. Rich of the West
Sides stacked up against E. Goodbody
of the Empires. Goodbody is a clever
boy, and he forced the fighting. Rich
brought the "claret" first, but his OPP
p~onent's WIND and strength were too

practically had his man out in both the
first and second rounds, but he let gold
en- opportunities glide BY, End in the
third. evidently believing he had a sure
thing, let McVey force the fighting. He
did it with a vengeance. Doughertys
eye was closed, and his head was sent
back on his shoulders with a rush sew
eral times. McVey won the bout.
The sixth team to go on was E. Car
roll of the Cathedral Club and J. Browne
of the Standard. For the first half
OF the first round Carroll did all the
fighting and MINDED himself. A chance
blow on the jaw put him off his guard.
Browne who it was believed was a soft
hitter, suddenly let go and he ham
mered Carroll at will. He saved his
wind in the first half of the second
and again went at Carroll. In the third
round Carroll was groggy, Browne
est boxer in the 105 pound class, with the
exception perhaps of j. Pitts OF New
York, who has lodging down to a sci
ence.
of the Emerald's and F. Radley of the
Olga Club, in the f~eatherWeight class.
The go lasted one round, Cooper had a
walkover. He punched Radley all around
the ring and would have put him out
before the call of time had not the ref
cree stopped the bout.
The eighth go brought on two more
1S0 pound men, They were z, Sehantz
Club. McVey won. The bout was unin-
teresting.
The ninth bout was the go of the even
ing. H.. Augell of the Summit Club took
the left hand corner, which had been
occupied by all winners, and then waited
the appearance of his opponent. An
nouncer Murphy said that O.. Watson
OF New Brunswick had come in from
New Brunswick on a freight train to
meet Augell, and that there would be
a little delay while he arranged his toilet.
That duty performed, Watson sprang on
the platform. He was colored and as
finely formed as a man could wish. His
muscles were like iron. He is a second
edition OF George Dixon. When he faced
Augell he took two or three blows, then
let go a straight swing. The bout was
over. The swing landed on AugelPs
Jaw. He saw stars and then dropped in
a heap in his corner. Watson was de-
clared the winner. Augell came to a
few minutes later and remained to see
the show over.
The tenth bou was a lively one be-
tween F. Collyer of Brooklyn and w.
McGriel of the Loyal Club. Fierce in
fighting characterized the bout. McGriel
won, although he was badly punished.
The eleventh go brought 7. Ryan of
the Elm Club of the rs pound class, and
t. MCGEE of the Clinton's, of the 1870
had to tell the men that he would put
them out of the ring unless they fought
a little. The bout was awarded to Ryan.
The twelfth brought H. Voehl of Eliza
beth against J.. Jarvis of the Mercury
Club together. What Voehl does not
He is a dummy of the worst kind. He
can't hit ten pounds when he is at his
best. Jarvis is another one of those
blackboard fighters who disgust every
body. He don know the first thing
about fair fighting. As a wrestler he
would be a success. The three rounds
were a series of clinches and fouls. Jar
Wis was given the fight. The manage
ment decided not to attempt to run off
the finals, as it would have kept the
take place at Turner Hall, First street,
tonight. The finals will be all right, and
lovers of good sport Will miss it 1t they
fail to take them in.
