WRESTLING. BETS ARE
 COMING IN Each of the Matches Thurs. day Night Will Carry a Whole Pot of Money Good Word From Train. ing Camps.

Two bets of S1O0 each were record ed today on the outcome of the Ed O'Connell and Dan Pickett match. One bet was made that Dan Pickett would not get a fall in the one hour of wrestling and another one hundred was bet that O'Connell would not get two falls in the hour. On the Swan son and Cnakl match $750 has already been placed at every old kind of ! way. Most of the bets are even up but one wager Is made that Swanson will beat Cnaki inside two hours. An other bet is a peculiar one. It is that there will be no fall by either one at the end of two hours but the referee will decide who has the better of the match up to that time on points. On the Gresham and Brennan contest for a half hour the betting is in small sums but 1t is just as plentiful.
 Everything is about in readiness Tor the three matches on Thursday night and the demand for ringside seats still continues. The platform will be ersct. ed in the center of the floor and just high enough for all to get good view of the men working on the mat The platform will be roped in also to pre- vent any accidents by being thrown from the mat. On the stage there will be about fifty seats at the same price as the ringside seats Everything possible will be done to accommodate those who desire 10 see the matches.
 The word that comes from fhe train ing camps of all the wrestlers is that each one Is in the pink of condition. Never in the history of wrestling be- fore in New England have six men been forced to get into training Tor their matches. Usually the prelimin- aries are patched up in order to create a little excitement for the big contest. In this tournament however each match is for blood and for purse money. It will he the biggest feast Of wrestling ever digested by any publh. and the promoters are deserving of every commendation for bringing the wrestlers together.

his favorire stamping ground and all the boys in the neighborhood felt the sting of Jacks knockout blows. George Dixon began life in a photograph gal lery. He met another negro, from whom he tried to glean some important information. The negro deceived him and Dixon made up his mind that If ever he met the fellow again he would give him thrashing. Fate brought the pair together again and the feather weight kept his word with such dis patch that the negro never deceived any one else afterward. DIxon's sue cess prompted him to take up boxing. and before long the colored boy started the sporting world with his wonder ful ring achievements.

THE PUCILISTS.
BUSY TIMES

Jack Johnson Made a Chump of hunroe- Abe Attell and Corbett Fight in the Woods.

Philadelphia. June 27.-Before the National athletic club last night, Jack Johnson, the champion colored heavy weight, made life miserable for six rounds for Jack Munroe, the Butte miner. Munroe was outclassed from start to finish, and 1t was only his awkardness that saved him from be- ing put out. He was badly beaten man and never had look-in.
 Johnson had the best of the first landing hard on Munroe's body. They were clinched at the bell.
 As far as exchanging blows went. Munroe made better showing in the second round. but he was sent to his knees by right hook to the jaw and Johnson landed another hard one in the same place just as the bell rang. This was also the black mans rouiid.
 There was nothing to the third round but Johnson. Munroe could not land single good blow. and he was the receiver for every sort of swing and uppercut Johnson tried to deliver.
 Munroe put couple of jolts into Johnson's stomach in the fourth. but Johnson did not seem to notice them and landed frequently on the white mans head and body. Just before the bell rang he sent two hot ones into Munroe's jaw and the round ended as the others had done. in Johnson's fa- vor.
 Johnson tried very hard to put his man out in the fifth and hammered Munroe at will Once he staggered him with right swing fo the jaw. buT his blows lacked the sleep producing quality. Munroe was a very tired man ct the end of this round
 Munroe clinched all through the last round to save himself. and that was about all he managed to do. His right ere was bleeding and closed and he was hammered and battered from bell to bell
 Nunroe was seconded by Tommy Carey and Frank Spalding. while Gecrre Furey. ~Black BIT and Ar chic Price assisted in the opposite cor ner.
 The house was packed from top to bottom when the main bout was an nounced. and the crowd which came early. IVES treated to some lively scraps before the major attraction
