The recent talk of a fight between
Tom Sharkey and Frank s;avin in the
klondike reveals the fact that there is
u select bunch of sports at DAWSON City
who are wiling to put up 10000 for
some kind of pugilstic encounter. "A
local expert who has advised Sirirkey
to stay away from the land of golden
frosts has figured out that it would cost
the sailor $4,000 for food during n short
stay in Alaska: that seconds would ask
$1,000 apiece for their services at the
ringside; that he would have to buy
the drinks II he won AT an estimated
cost of $1,000 and that other incidentals
would crmp his pocket book 10 the cx-
tent of 81 500 more. This would foot up
an expense account of $4,000, which
Thomas would have to stand. AS Shar-
key knows something of finances, lit is

cred the offer of the klonGike bene-
factors.
