James H. Alldredge, of Sioux CITY, is
visiting his uncle Watson Cain south.
east of Leon and his cousin James M.
Cain near Grand River. Mr.. Alldredge
enjoys the title of champion heavy
weight pugilist of Iowa, and also of the
northwest, and has justly earned the
title. He has appeared in the ring in
numerous engagements all over the
country, his last fight being with Jack
Fagin at Charleston, s. G. on Nov. Is,
who he defeated in 6 rounds. Other
notable contests in which he has been
engaged were an 8 round draw with
Denver Ed Smith, at St. Louis; at Pitts
burg, Penn, he won in II, rounds from
Jack Davis, o. Omaha, in a battle for the
heavy weight championship of the
northwest; he defeated Jim. Hall at Dial.
las; Texas, in rounds, and knocked
out Harry. Covert, of Chicago, at Scran.
ton, Penn, in 6 rounds. He also knock,
ed out Jack O'Donneli, of. Pittsburg in
the 9TH round at Scranton, Penn.
Mr.. Alldredge lisa very pleasant gentle
man and would hardly be taken for a
prize fighter. He is % years old, weighs
218 pounds and can go into the ring at
1873 pounds. He has been fighting for
the past five years, but has never vet en-
gagged in a brutal contest, as he says a
prize fighter can be a gentleman just as
we'll as anyone and insists that q ring
contest is not nea as brutal as a foot
ball game. 1t is barely possible that an
exhibition sparring match may be ar
ranged to be held in this city between
Mr.. Alldredge and Jack Stelxner, who
trained Bob Fitzsimmons for his famous
battle with Jim Corbett at Carson CITY.
