Cake-walk Attractions.

Booker Washington says that ono
reason why colored people migrate to
cities is that there are more schools.
Another reason is that there are more
cake walks. The colored rural citizen
is no more oblivious than the white
man to the social allurements OF
metropolitan life.

BAKER To MEET
ATTELL'S BROTHER
Manager Maginnis Announces
His Next Attraction.
LITTLE PAST HISTORY GIVEN
so THE FIGHT FANS MAY KNOW
THE TRUTH.

Jack McGinnis. who is manager at
the present time Of the old armory
fighting club which is controlled by
some OF the same parties who killed
the sport In this city last spring, has
announced that his next exhibition viii
be between Caesar AtteI Of San Fran
cisco and George Baker Of Bakers
Vile. Cal. The bout is advertised as
being between two clever fighters, ana
the public is promised one Of the
greatest contests that was ever seen Ia
the city.
OF Caesar Atten nothing is known
locally. except that he is "a brother OF
Abe Atteu one of the cleverest lighters
that ever d0nned a init, and a pugillst
of national reputation. OF Baker the
least said the better. He has abso-
lrtely no science whatever and is about
as clever I'm handling himself as bull
calf with his front legs hobbled. Hs
appeared ia one contest here with kld
Oglesby last spring, which. in the opln-
Son Of nearly everyone who witnessed
the contest was nothing more than a
fake. pure and simple
It was announced before the contest
that the men had agreed 10 call the
bout a draw if they were on their Iett
at the end of twenty rounds, and all
accounts of the so published az tht
lime show that they took very good
care 90 see that both men were sum
on their feet. Not a single knock
down occurred. not "a single drop OF
blood was spilled during the Wnole
twenty rounds, and at the end Of that
time both men were fresh enough 20
keep up the same style Of fighting until
overcome by sleep. This fight as mucn
as any of the other numerous fakes
that occurred under that management
helped 20 put the game out in salt
Lake.
Tt also appears that Baker has a
very unenviable record in other parts
OF the country, judging from the fol-
lowing from the Butte IntermOuntain:
eft was about the middle Of last sum-
mer that the Butte Gymnasium club
matched Kid Oglesby and George Ba-
ker 90 fight ten rounds at the Family
theatre. The writer, as manager ana
matchmaker OF the club, telegraphed
Bakers transportation, This, with
some money advanced for training eX-
penses. amounted TO $50.
''The night of the fight came round
There wasn't a big crowd on hand, but
there was $500 in the house that night.
The time came for getting into the
ring Ogiesby crawled through the
ropes and waited Baker looked over
the house. sized up the crowd, turned
up his nose and curtly refused 90 go on.
Il won't go on for the amount OF
money on hand. he said.
III you viii go on you can have the
first $780, win or lose. and you needn'
pay the club "a cent of the $50 you owe
st. was told him.
but Baker was Obdurate. He either
had the swelled h-od or cold feet so
bad that he couldn't have been dragged
into the ring with a team of oxen.
Howard Opie was present that night
and he offered % fight Oglesby. ale
though he had not trained for the
contest. They put up q great scrap
and the crowd went away satisfied"
