NOTWITHSTANDING the fact that
IN Danny Savage, OF Orange, failed
to put In an appearance at the
bouts held at the Central Institute last
night. the substitute, Billy Lewis. Of
this city, put up a good bout with Ray
Hatfield, and the patrons left perfectly
satisfied. 1t may be stated here that
the bouts furnished by Gus Troxler are
about the best that can be seen here
abouts. There Is an absence of the
rowdy element at this place. Troxler
insists upon order at his establishment
and the results obtained are gratifying.
In the hall last night were prominent
business men, physicians, lawyers and
in fact men from every walk Of life.
Such a gathering would hardly call for
police protection, but, nevertheless, Off
GERS were on hand to see that all went
we'll. Troxier deserves great credit for
the manner in which the bouts are con-
Quoted and the methods he has Of Sc
lecting men TO perform who are equally
matched.
Danny Savage failed to notify the
management why he failed to put in an
appearance to box Hatfield. The bout

The generous applause given both con-
testants was well deserved. Lewis,
while a bit heavier, was better all the
way, using his skill and left hand to
advantage. Hatfield several times
landed telling blows, which, had they
been delivered with more heft, would
have slowed up the fighting Lewis. At
any rate, Lewis was easily the winner.
The second star bout OF the evening.
between Young Lipp, of Elizabeth, and
Jack Nadine, Of Newark, was another
treat. Both boys gave a good account
of themselves and showed the crowd
what mitigating really is. This is the
second time that Lippe has showed here.
and il is positive that he will receive
another chance.
Nadine was a bit heavier, but his
weight did not keen Lipp from wading
in all the time. The bout terminated
with a shade for Lipp.
The first semi-finai, between Young
Stanzo and Young Diamond, lasted but
two rounds, OF account OF Stanzo re-
ceiving q bad cut over the left eye.
Young Diamond was in elegant condi-
ton and gave Stanzo a good drubbing
1t Is positive that the me will meet
again. Joseph Tierney. OF. Elizabeth,
and Adam Duane, from the same
burg" put up a classy fight for four
rounds, and at the finish Tierney had a
shade OH his rival. Tlerney has a left
that will not down, and keeps working
like a piston rod.
Tho preliminaries furnished great
sport. Young Kane and Young Dona-
hue put up something new in the game
Of boxing. Their antics kept the audi
ence in laughter. and at the end neither
man was able to stand UP. so hard had
they been hitting the atmosphere. 1T
should be called a draw, so that neither
hoy will get angry. Elmer Bennett was
outclassed by Charles Burnett, but
stayed four rounds and took several
healthy wallops. Young Mack and
Young Burge put sup a classy argl-
,nent Burge had all the pest UP to the
fourth round. when a straight left sent
him to the floor. He was up at the bell.
but not in condition to finish. 1t was a
good bout for youngsters.
