The Nah r-Sharkey Bout.

The bouts this week OF interest TO the
sporting men OF this vicinity are the ones
between Maher and Sharkey and o. Don
nell and Greggains OF course the former
bout tops everything, as both men hold
prominent positions In the pugilistic
world. Maher is tipped as sure winner,
but Sharkey will give him harder game
than most people expect Under the
careful tutelage OF .Ioc Choynski the
marine has improved I'm science, but il
remains to be seen how much his hitting
powers have been benefited under the
guidance OF such clever man as
Choynski. The marine Is tough fellow,
and the amount Of punishment he can
stand is something remarkable.
When Sharkey was fighting on the
Pacific coast the patrons Of the ring In
the East felt confident thar Maher could
trim him I'm three rounds at the least but
thoy do not think so now. and the lowest
estimate yet made on tho number of
rounds he will stand before Maher is Is.
No reason is given for such change of
opinion, for Sharkey has not done any
thing since he fought Fitzsimmons.
If Mahcr is not discouraged at not
S ttling Sharkey with one of his terrific
punches he ought to win. A defeat for
Maher means that his chance OF getting
Gn opportunity 10 fight for the cham
pionship is very slim. Should Sharkey
leave the ring winner Fitzsimmons will
have another man on his trail.
