The Raeey stock in Swampoodleville

washineton's star miadleweight which
were struck at the Spa Athletic Club re-
Gently. when Nick Burley scored an uneN
pectea victory over the East End pet, are
once raore dauying with the zepiyrs OF
the Um. Tie reason and whyfor Of this
sudden rise in the market is the matching
OF Mr. Patricio Raedy against the Western
rniddlew eight. Dics Moore Raedy and
Moore are old enemies having met about
q year ago in a tweuty-round ma tinee
sShich was decided q toss up when the nien
lad gone the lfnit. This battle Is down IN
tie annals OF local boxing affairs Is one
of the fiescest and hloodiest contests that
was ever pulled OFF in this vicinity
It's case of six OF one and halt a dozen
OF the other q 10 the scrapping abilities
OF the two men. Moore is slightly more
scientific than the SwanpcOdle pet, but
he has no advantage in the way OF strength
or gansenes.. The 10Th or next month has
l,eei. set H. the date Of the bout, and Tim
Hurst viii come down from Buffalo where

Nike Haley, who looks after the bfsineSs
affairs OF the local man, and trains hIia

scrub Eleven OutplayN Them and
scores Touchdown.
Princeton, y. j.. oct. 2s.-The varsity
team took most discouraeiug slump
ia their practice work this afternoon.
The scrubs outplayed them al every point
aud scored a touchdown with goal while
the first eleven could not get near enough
TO the scrubs goal line TO make the game
exciting. There was a large number of
fumbles made by the varsity backs which
discouraged the hHemen. AS result the
entire team went all TO pieces and pfuved
an easy mark for the scrubs. The scrubs
touchdown was made by sharp line buck
ing for short gains from the center OF
the field.
Capt Cochran was utterly disguised with
the 'varsitys playing, and, despite the Oh
jecjions OF Trainer McMasters, ne peeled
OFF his sweater and jumped into the game
at right end His presence awaited moth
ing, however, for the scrub buck could not
/ be stopped. Booth played miserable
/ game at center. He is the weakest spot on
lie team and something must be done at
| once TO strengthen his point. Edwards
/ was given trial in the place today. Arm.
/ strong was ta-en out Of the game with 4
/ twisted knee, and TileSon, right guard OH
| the scrub, was Knocked completely out 10y
| an accidental blow on the head.
The management is much alarmed at
! the team's weak showing and has sent

Brown Knox, Taylor, Langdon, Lea and

lack OF interest shown by the under
