An Each of Their Battles Either
Luck Or Science Has been

oo~>A NAOAuiiiIe, the lightweight cham
p1on pugilist of the world, and Jimmy
carroll, his old-time rival and three

In all their battles previous to tonight
McAul1He has been the victor, though
never without a hard fight The last
time the men met was in this city
March Il, 1890, when McAuliffe, who
was all but put out in the forty-Sev-
enth round, rallied under the clever
handl1ng of Jack Dempsey and put
carroll out, when the latter was fight
Ing strong. Although Carroll has
passed his fortieth year, he is a well
preserved man and has trained long
and faithfully for this, perhaps his
last fight. 1t may be said he has been
in training for years to defeat Nc
Auliffe and entered tonight in prime
condition.
The opening bout was a, ten-round
contest between Dial Hawkins, who re-
Gently fought a draw with Joe Cans
In New York, and Joe Finnick, known

kansas Kid" Referee George Green
stopped the bout in the middle Of the
second round and awarded the decision
to Hawkins. It was too one-sided to
be of interest

roll appeared first and was we'll re-
ceived, but judging by the enthusiastic
n he
faVorite with the patrons Of boxing.

as berry. There was noticeable alb

battle of his life. Jacks flesh was
was too much plumpness of the chest,
arms and shoulders. Both men ex-
ceeded the lightweight limit
