F'it2simm0ns, eX-champion heavy
weight of the world, will engage in q
bout after an absence from the ring of
many months. His prospective OPP
ponent is Con CoughIin, the Irish
giant" Coughlin has been tOuted as
a pugilistic wonder, but so far as
actual facts go he is an unknown
quantity and Fitzsimmons and his
crowd apparently regard him as

who comes along.
Nevertheless the bout is attracting
considerable attention and Il large
crowd is expected to be at the
ringside.

citizens by the city council.
In addition to this 20 permits have
been granted for repairs, making in
