MURNANE WANTS SERIES.
Little Likelihood of Inter-Leagut
 Games However.

Efforts are to be made by T H. Murnane, president of the New En- gland league, to arrange post-season series between the Holyoke and Wat erbury clubs of the Connecticut league and the Worcester and Lynn clubs of the New England league. According to the Worcester Telegram President Murname will get into communication with the officials of the Nutmeg organization and en- deavor to arrange for a series.
 There is but slight possibility of such series being played at this late date as both the Holyoke and Water bury clubs have other plans.
 The Holyoke management has said right along that it was opposed to these post-season games as two sucn series by Champion City Paper teams have proven financial failures. Di- rector A. E. Dewolfe of the Holy oke club In a long article in a Brocton paper. rekviews these series and shows thatthey are unproftsble and have failed to arouse as much interest in the New England league as they have in this league.

THE PUGlLISTS
PRIVATE FIGHT
 YESTERDAY
Young Shea Proved to Be the Master of Le Blanc in Six
 Rounds.

One of the liveliest fights between light amateurs witnessed in this vii cinity in some time was that pulled off yesterday morning in lct over looking the town of Prospect, Won der what the natives of the good old town would have done if they were aware that not more than a mile from their churches on the Sabbath morn, about fifty sports were on hand witnessing a couple of little fellows pummel each other as best they knew how. Undoubtedly they would have thrown up their hands in holy horror.
 The fight, which was between Young Shea, brother of Kid Shea, and youth, Le Blanc by name, who is seeking pugilistic honors, was stopped in the sixth round by the referee, a well known citizen. Young Shea had much the better of the bout and would in all probability have put his opponent away had not the referee had the sense to bring the exhibition to a close.
 The fight was arranged and carired out so that very few with the eXcep- tion of those on the inside knew what was to take place. The trip to the field where the bout was pulled off was made without any suspicion being aroused and the event vas nut disturbed in the least. The spscta- tors, once the ring had been formed, kept back well and gave the fighters plenty of room. There was 6 little money het on the result as it was the consensus of the majority O.. those present that Shea wouli te too strong for his opponent. .-s
