REILLY MclARLEY ToNIGHT-KID NELSON GGrs A
CHANCE-IRoQUoIs" TERRY TO WITH MCDONALD OF THE
TENNEssEE-CREAM OF LOCAL BOXERS MATCHED WITH
FLEETS BEST GLovEMEN.

The park is an ideal place for fistic
encounters and no effort will be spar
ed so far as the accommodation OF
patrons and the furnishing of sterling
sport is concerned.
There are any quantity of boxers
with the fleet and they seem to have
been getting in shape for the Honolulu
game for some time past
Charlie Reilly, the recently-arriyed
San Francisco lightweight, appears to
be the objective point of the naval
lightweights and challenges to box
him are being hurled in all directions.
The heavier divisions are also to
the fore with defis and Hurricanes
and "ThunderOolts," are as thick along
Hotel street as bin collectors round
the government buildings on the day
when the ghost walks.
The gentlemen who are after Mr..
Reillys scalp will be accommodated to
the limit. Charlie says that he came
down here to box and that he is ready
and willing to go into the ring livery
night this week if necessary and he is
able to do So
There will be three bouts tonight.
! The main event will be ten rounds at
1873 pounds between Reilly and Jack
McKarley ON the U. 5. S. West Nir-
ginia.
McKarley is one of the best light
weights with the fleet and boxed lot
round san Francisco under the nomme
de guerre Of Jack Evans He fought
three battels with Johnny Murphy, Sc
curing two draws. In all he has had
sixty-seven battles and in the great
majority of them he has pulled down
the long end of the purse.
Another attraction tonight will be a
90 between Kid Nelson of Honolulu
who recently issued a sweeping chal-
lenge, and Harry Scholl of the U. 5.
S. California. Nelson is said by those
who have seen him box to be the goods
and Scholl is a crackerjack at lOo
pounds. Perhaps his best go was a
six-round Graw with All Wing, the
Chinese wonder, at Sacramento, to
whom he was conceding several
pounds. Tomorrow night the boys
will box at 1O5 pounds.
Scholl is said to be one of the best
men Of his weight in the country and
has been in the habit of tackling men
several pounds bigger than himself in
order to get match.
The other preliminary tonight Will
be ten rounds at 1870 pounds between
Kid Terry of the U. 5. S. lroquois and
Macdonald OF the U. D. S. Tennessee.
Kid Terry is one of the most pro-
A missing local youngsters in his diyi-
sion and should be able to make the
sailor hustle. He has improved a lot
since Jack Mct adden beat him and
has spared no effort to learn all he
could about the fistic game
TonighLs card is a most attractive
one and should draw big crowd OF
civilians as we'll as the men of the
