BOXING NOTES.

Jack Mccormick, feeling sud
he would get good stiff punching fiCIn
Sharkey, objetted against going into
the ring TUESDAY with the sailor I'M
less he received few hundred dollars
more than was promised him, and
rather than disappoint the big crowd,
the club officials gave him an extra 5000
and he went on, getting $3.50 alto
gether.
The probable reopening Of the Coney
Island and Broadway athletic clubs is
taken to mean that there will be some
lively bidding for bout of some kind
in which Fitzsimmons may tigLre. If
Sharkey covers Fits forfeit and asks
for a finish fight, New York clubs will
be out of the bidding. But if Fitz and
the sailor agree to meet in a limited
round bout, the latter's manager is eX-
pected to insist on the LenoX club and
to refuse an offer from the Coney Is
land club. In such an event two bids
of Importance will probably be made.
The Lenox club will hang up a purse
for Sharkey and Jeffries, while the
Coney Island club will probably try
for FitZsimmons and Jeffries. The
latter's manager, Brady, will undoubt-
eddy play two ends against the middle
by announcing that he will accept the
largest purse offered either for Sharkey
Dr Fitzsimmons. Whatever may be
the result of the bidding, sporting men
are inclined to the belief that an op-
portunity will soon be afforded to see
FitzsimmonS in contest with
somebody. The Cornishman believes
that he can draw big money, and it is
believed that he will soon come along
with bushel basket in which he can
stow away the coin.
Frank Erne, the pugilist, writes that
he had narrow escape from being
killed on January Goth while on his
way to San Francisco to fight Dial Haw-
kins. In the party with Erne were
Jim Kennedy and Jim Hurst. The
train collided with cattle train. The
engineer and fireman were killed.
Erne received a good shaking up, while
Kennedy sustained an ugly cut in the
head. Erne says that the accident hap
pened at A o'clock in the morning and
that the scenes about the wreck were
very pitiful. Erne is now in Frisco
resting, but will soon begin training for
his mill with Hawkins on March 1st.
Jimmy Barry says he will come East
in a few weeks and that he will take

one, but like Uncle Toms Cabin" it
always pleases the theatre-going pub
lie. In the dual role of Lady Isabel
and Madame Vane, both are taken by
Miss Gertrude Shipman, and it is but
just to add that she is an actress
whose peer is seldom seen in compan-
les presenting plays of this order.
Miss Dorset also made a very salts

he did when Sharkey was measured a

ever, that Jeffries' weight was 227
pounds, and he stood feet inches
stripped. DR.. Sargent said that he pre-
scented q great contrast to Sharkey, be-
ing a much bigger man all around.
While lacking the sailors almost aD-
normal physique, he is finely developed
and gives promise as being very active.
Sharkeys characteristic is broadness
and fatness, while Jenries is more
