to meet Johnny Howard in a ten
round bout at the Broadway Sporting
| Club In Brooklyn next Tuesday night.
This should be good fight The
men have met three times. On one
occas sion Weinert won beyond
doubt, but in the other two contests
there was a difference of opinion.
This bout next Tuesday night should
be more decisiv than any of the pre-
ceding ones. Howard is a sturdy fell
low and can hit hard with either
hand. He is not as clever as Weinert.
who seems to lack a punch. 1t is said
that Weinert is training for the con
test, and it is well, for if he goes
into the ring in poor shape with
Howard he will likely get some of the
swelling of his head reduced
G
Now that Weinert has again given
UP posing and become a fighter, per-
haps he will find the time and the in
clination TO give Jim Savage a bat
tie, This. it is hoped, he will do soon,
for there are any number of sports
around here who would like to see
the mill. There isn't any doubt IN
Weinert's mind. | am told, but that
he can whip Savage, yet somehow
or other he isn't very anxious TO
face Jim in the ring. Savage, of
course, feels sure that he will knock
Charley out if he is ever given the
opportunity, but Jim says there is
no such luck i'm store for him. Wei
merit is interested in Savage's pugil-
istic welfare. He was much put out
at the poor showing Jim made in his
bout with Perky Flynn a week ago
and said: whats the matter with
that fellow? He put up rotten
fight ] was in hopes he would make |
a good impression. There's no use
of me lighting him now. He wouldn't |
draw anything" As a drawing card, |
Weinert hasn't anything on Savage. |
AS a fighter it remains to be seen |
just where he stands. AS a poser, it |
is said that Weinert has taken Saw
ages place up in the Oranges, and |
this has created a bad feeling.
Weinert fight should take
place by all means-but they do say
that Weinert is afraid.

Weinert is sending around his
latest protos and they are very
well done He is not in the usual
pugilistic attire. He wants to be the
gentleman and he evidently thought
A few pictures in tuxedo effect would
not look bad in print We hope to
have the opportunity soon to use one
IF Weinert's latest creations. These
pictures were taken at the suggestion
IF Sam Fitzpatrick, the famous old
of fighters, when Weinert
was contemplating trip to Austria
ia. The plans miscarried and Vein
srt compromised with a voyage to
Eagle Rock. He is back home again
and he will be busy from now until
next Tuesday night, when he will
meet Howard.
Freddie Welsh comes to New York

lever, but he never could draw
zig house. If he is no better card as
In actor the stage will soon suffer a
great loss. Welsh isn't going to fight
n hurry and he hasn't decided who
lie will box next. He has given his
xcrd and even signed articles to
meet Ritchie, but his demands are SO
nigh that no one will put on the
bout. Welsh wants the same amount
% fight Ritchie as Ritche demanded
when he fought Welsh, which, in
'ound figures. was $260O0 There
sn't a club in this country which
would think of giving Welsh that
sum and then meet Ritchie's de-
hands besides. The Welsh Richie
light was big bloomer and the pro-
noters lost money. Richie got his,
out Welsh didn't get a cent for win
ming.
