Peter.

NEW YORK, July 25.-The benefit of
the Mothers Seaside Rest at Coney Is
land, held under the auspices of the
Coliseum A. C. in Harlem last night. was
a success. Five thousand men and wom-
en- helped to make it SO. The crowd OF
spectators was probably the most elite
that has ever seen two boxers pummel
each other in the ring, albeit the pum-
melting was of the brotherly kind.
Only one thing happened to cast mo-
mentary gloom over the proceedings.
That was when Kid Mccoy hit Peter
Maher too hard in the second round.
causing the redoubtable Peter to hit the
floor The gallant Kid Immediately apol-
ogized for his carelessness and was pre-
scented with a large bouquet of roses.
Among other pugiistic celebrities who
contributed toward the success of the
benefit by appearing in action in the ring
were Philadelphia Jack OBrien and Jim
Donovan, Leach Cross and Battling Hur-
ley. Charlie Murphy and Jack Goodman
and others. Mae Harris and May Nc
Gregor wrestled for fifteen minutes with
out either being able to gain fall.

Fi1ht.

NEW YORK. July 25.-When Billy
Papke. the Illinois Thunderbolt. and
Sailor Burke get in the ring next Monday
night at the Coliseum A. c., the members
will have no complaint on the score Of
condition. Papke intends to show the
Gotham fight fans that although Stanley
Ketchel won from him in Milwaukee. he
is far from a dead one. The rumor that
they would not be able to do 15S pounds
has been set at rest. as they are now
ready to step on the scales.
Matty Baldwin. the clever lightweight,
after a trip to Papke's training quarters
at New Dorp yesterday. said: "Papke
10 as fit as fiddle and will put up the
fight Of his life. He is sparring with the
colored heavy. Joe Jeanette, and when
they put on the gloves 1t means a real
battle. Papke has gained in strength.
and when Burke gets up against him he
will have to do his prettiest to get the
prize"
The Sailor is just as confident. He
knows that he will meet tough custom
er in the fighter from the west and is
leaving nothing undone that will help
him to win.
