LOCAL PUGS HAVE A
SCRAP

Some anonymous writer has handed in
the following account OF prize fight
which is reported to have occurred in
town on Monday night:
The Sharkey- Cunning fight which was
scheduled for Monday night was pulled
off without hitch. Up to 6 o'clock the
betting was to on Sharkey, but when
the men entered the ring the odds
jumped to Z to on Sharkey, with no
takers.
Sharkey was the first to enter the ring.
He wore his red sweater, which he usual
ly has on such occasions.
Cunning crawled through the ropes
about five minutes after.
The men stripped to weigh in. Mr..
Sharkey looked the picture of health and
tipped the scales at LIS, and chose the
east corner as it was shaded by the cor
ner of the high arena. Cunning was
next on the scales. He looked in great
shape and trained to the minute. He
tipped the scales at 155, and took his
corner.
There was some dispute regarding
bandages, but Sharkey finally agreed to
Cunning wearing them. The ring was
cleared and the men posed for their pic
ture. They could not agree on an UNI
pire so the fight was pulled off without
one, the crowd to be the judge.
The Fight by Rounds.
The gong.
Round Like fash both men were
in the center of the ring, sparring for all
opening. Sharkcy led off with a right to
the solar-plexus. Cunning dropped his
guard and received a hard left on the

eight. He got up very groggy, anc
started in to force matters, swinging {
hard right for the head, but the blow
went wild and he slipped to his knee. III
