Ketchel, it is said, will easily make
the weight of 15S pounds. He may
make it, but few believe he will do il
easily, as his handlers so confidently
announce. 1t is known that he has
had to work valiantly to get down tC
the proper weight, but this very fact
is thought likely to have put him ir
| first class shape.
| Papke will make the weight without
difficulty. The distance is set for 2(
rounds, and Jack Welch has beer
agreed upon as the referee.
Betting is mostly in small wagers
from to 5 to 10 to Z, with Papke the
favorite.

eye and he has barred no one from
his quarters except when the crow,
became too dense. Ketchel, on tn,
other hand, has done much of his worl
in retirement. He seems the pictur,
of health, but good deal of his spar
ring has been done behind closet
ldoors. While it has been necessar!
for him to work strenuously to ge
off weight, this may put him in goo'
shape, or it may have weakened him
