The Palace Athletic Club will give its
patrons a twenty-round contest at the
regular weekly show next Wednesday
night, between two of the cleverest lit
tie men in the business. Danny Mcbride,
the famous ~hard-hitting, game Bowery
lad, will be one of the contestants, while
his opponent will be Sam Boland, a well
known choeolate-eolored exponent of the
fistic art. Boland has gained a well de-
served reputation for pluck and clever
ness by many a hard fought contest.
Among his rnany battles are several
draws with George Dixon. In matching
these boys Charlie White has selected
two youngsters who will put up a con-
test that will be fast n furious from
start to inish Two good bouts have
also been arranged to proceed the star
attraction. Frank Patterson of Brook
lyn will spar ten rounds with Jerry Bar
nett of New York at 122 pounds. Benny
Leon of New. York will meet Frank
Smith of California at 116 pounds. This
bout promises to be a very lively one,
and is scheduled for ten rounds.
