he can fighting any one else. still he
ducks away from the match and
hides himself up in the mountains.
Let him come out and do business.
We are ready any time. If he is a
fighter, let him fight If he is a
poser or a mountain climber let him
announce that fact to the public. If
he is afraid of Savage, let him say
so. It's no disgrace. Only let him
make himself clear so that everybody
will know where both sides stand.

In a conversation yesterday Vein
ert said he would fight Savage, and
expected that there would be some
thing doing around here in the way
of a fight club in a week or so. He
also said he was after Gunboat
Smith. and he intimated that he was
not satisfied with his present man
ager. His partner-incrime, Bert
Papp, said that Weinert wouldn't
stick to John Weismantel, who has
been doing his business recently un-
less his manager secured for him
Gunboat Smith or some other fellow
oe like Importance. Managers ana
Weinert do not hitch very well, evil
IDENTIFY, for he has had about SIX OF
them. and he hasn't been in the game
very long at that; but the question
is. Will Weinert fight Savage or will
he continue to pose for the movies
in the Oranges? Percy Woodruff
would like to know the answer ana
the fight fans would like 70 know
how about it.
AS manager of the Madison square
Garden fight club Jimmy Johnston
will do well to keep his eye on Jer-
sew boys. There are dozen or more
boxers around here who have large
foIlowings. and Johnston should not
forget this fact as fight manager.
Johnston has been a big success, ana
he is sure to make good in his new
nosition. But we warn him again to
keep the Jersey boys in mind, ana
we feel sure he WILL for he has al
ready two native sons in his stable
Kid Boonton, of Orange, and Eddie
Nugent, of Nutley. incidentally, we
wish Sir Jaimes all the good luck in
the world.

The Puritan A. c. is taking big
interest In Joe Cassidy, one of its
members, who meets Jack Coyne at
the next boxing show of the Bay
View Wheelmen.
"At the next show of the Bay
View" writes member of the Puri-
tans, Joe Cassidy meets Jack Coyne,
who recently beat Harry Thomas in
q ten-round bout at the Broadway
S. c., of Brooklyn. Cassidy has
fought some good boys and has yet
to taste defeat" the letter says He
is training at both the Puritan A.
C. and st. James's Club, and should
he win this bout, which we are sure
he will, he will be in line to meet
any of the topnotch lightweights
around here. Let's see who will
fight the winner" the letter goes on.
Young Gradwell, no doubt, would
take on such match, for IL Cassidy
wins they would draw a record crowd
in a ten-round bout at Browns or
a four-round set-to at the Bay Views.
Among the many boys who are
afraid of Cassidy is Kid Boonton,
who says Cassidy is too heavy--a
poor excuse for getting out of
match"
The writer of the above letter might
have better left unsaid his remarks
about Boonton. To boost your own
is fine; to knock others isn't nice at
all, especially for such a big club
as the Puritans. When there is any
knocking to be done, allow me to do
1t and you will feel better for it.
Boonton says Cassidy is too big for
him. If that is so, it is sufficient.
Boonton is a light lightweight and
can make 129 pounds ringside. If
Cassidy can make 1873 ringside, I'll
bet Boonton will fight him in min
ute. What do you know about that!
