No Crowd Present.

New Haven, Feb 13.-Manager J. J. MacSherry, who for the past few days has been promoting the wrestling bout between Charles Reinecke and M. R. Yokel, which was to come off in Eagles hall last night, was compelled to postpone the affair owing to the fact that the expected attendance did not materialize. There were quite a number present, but not nearly enough to meet expenses and despite the dis appointment Manager MacSherry was obliged to call the match off and re turn the money. The. latter gentle man. who has worked hard the last few days to make the affair a success, was very sorry to disappoint his friends, but stated last night that some time in the near future he would offer the same attraction to the New Haven public, but would take sufficient time to properly set forth its merits to those interested in the sport. Charles Rein ecke. who is middleweight champion of the west. is thinking Of getting on match with Edward O'Connell of New Haven the champion lightweight of Connecticut, and will offer to throw O'Connell fivo times in an hour. A formal challenge will soon be issued.

WRESTLING. PRELIMINARIES
 ARE CORkERS.
The Two for the Tourna- ment Next Thursday Night Creating Much In- tereSt.-The Main Bout.

The first preliminary of the wrest- ling tournament which takes place next Thursday night will be worth the price of admission alone. Dan Pickett of the Washington Hill Ath- letic club will tackle Young Perigard of the South End Social club. There is said to be hard feelings between the two and the friends Of each will be on hand to back them to victory.
 Then the match between Jack Roach Of this city and Ed O'Connell of New Haven will be corker for the second preliminary. It will be at catchweights and each is training hard for the contest. This will be as scientific match as any that has been seen in this city. Roach has never had chance to demonstrate just what he could do and he will be up against tough little lad in O'Con- nell.
 The principal contest, now that ev- erything has been settled satisfactor- iIy, will be a warm one and no m1s- take. Kelly is getting as fit as a fiddle and from the camp of Cnaki in Bridgeport comes word that he will be ready to wrestle the match or his life. This match will be to & finish and it will be work ali the time,

A Marvel Exploded.

The best thing that ever came 6f in the arena of the Chicago Athletic As sociation was when George Dawson, the boxing instructor, discovered a marvel named Dooley. Dooley came up in the gymnasium one day ana put on the gloves with Dawson. Dool- ey was 6 feet 10 and weighed l2o hounds. Dawson couldn't hit him with either hand, and Dooley held hlm OH in great style. So Dawson announced that he had discovered wonder ana that he would back him against any body in the lightweight brigade. lie matched him with Otto Sieloff for one of the fortnightly shows, and when they squared off the crowd went wlid with glee. Otto looked at the steplaa- der and then rushed in. He swung and missed. 4> Then he took running i,,mp and caught Dooley on the chin. Down went Dooley. and as he sat OH the mat he was as tall as Sleloh standing up. / ..r,o

Bob Gray. the Louisville poAlhs sharp. tells the story:
 "When Peter Jackson was at ms best he was touring the country With a variety company. He, Of course was meeting all corners, and ms man agers offered $50 to anyone who coulo stay four rounds before the big piack.
 .'Some of the boys threw rev shooters into q big negro named Stua Montgomery, a Louisville terror, ana persuaded him to take chance Wltn Jackson.
 "Stud weighed over 200 pounds ana was as hard as nails. When he step- ped into the ring with Jackson he showed up great, and the crowd cheer- ed him to the echo.
 Jackson went along easy with Stud for the first round, touched ms nlurih up lively in the second. and in the third rained blows at will all over ms body from head to foot. All could see Jackson was waiting for the last round to polish the negro up right ana give the audience run for their mon ey.
 "When they came up for the last round Stud was looking tired. Jack son sent in a few straights to the nose, jaw and body. All at once Stud threw I'D both hands and exclaimed:
 ".LooS heah. niggah, jes scattah yoah licks. The boys told me 1t was all tixt fer me to stay. If it ain't, heah's my gloves ,.....

THE PUGlLISTS.
SLENDER LEGS
 GOOD BOXERS
The Scrappers With the Thin ,Underpinning Are the Most Clever-Peter .JacksOn'S Opponent.

The best professional boxers have slender underpinning. Mccoy, Cor bett, Tommy Ryan, Fitzsimmons, all have thin legs.
 When Fitz first made a bid for pu- gilistic recognition in this country. everybody laughed at his legs. They certainly did not look like preconceiy- ed ideas of what a gladiator should stand on. But those toothpicks soon proved that they could take care of the massive trunk above them.
 Sharkey, Ruhlin and Munroe have thick legs, the kind of props that brace wrestler, but not the kind that make man shifty to avoid danger or speedy enough to carry the hands to accurate punching.
 It is Corbett's legs that gave him that wonderful mastery of distance that enabled him to work in and out of the burly Sullivan's guard and step into John LIS championship shoes. Mccoy has the legs of a dancing master. It's his jig steps that keeps his body from being abused when he is in the ring with men twice his size.
 There is no better teacher of modern boxing in the country than Professor Billy Elmer The first thing he teach es his pupils is how to employ their feet. He doesn't allow them to put on glove until they are familiar with footwork.

Brush Denies This.

Before the meeting of the national commission in Chicago to decide the Ridgewood Sunday base ball question President Ebbets of the Brooklyn club was credited with making the surpr:s- ing statement that the New York American league club had secured the h4agewood park for Sunday base ball with the consent and advice of An- drew Freedman and President John T. Brush of the New York National league club. Brush was shown this statement and said: "The New York club has not consented to nor advised the American league clubs playing Sunday ball in Rideewood, nor has it objected to their doing so. The New York club has taken absolutely no part in that controversy nor does it intend to do so. That is about the first base ball imbroglio the New York club has not been connected with in any way. unless Ebbets made the statement.
