GOLDFIELD, Feb. 11.-Seats for the
ten-round boxing contest Thursday
night at the Hippodrome theater be
tween Frank Mantell of Sacramento
and Bob Graham of Goldfield, cham
pion middleweight of Nevada, are
being sold like the proverbial hot
cakes" at the local places of sale.
Reports from Tonopah are to the eff
feet that the space in the ringside
and parquet division of the theater
allotted to the fans of the silver camp
is being taken UP in rapid fashion.
There is every reason to believe that
the only tickets that will remain for
sale when the doors of the theater
open will be those emitting purchas-
ers to seats in the gallery.
Both Graham and Mantell have
rounded themselves into excellent
condition and the contest promises
to be the most notable pugilistic af-
fair held in Goldfield or southern
Nevada since the famous Gans-Nelson
| lightweight championship fight here
September 3, 1906. They are working
out every afternoon at the Northern
saloon and their stunts are always
witnessed by large aggregations of
local fans Reports from Tonopah
say that "F'reck" Lydon, who is to
meet wildcat" Altman in ten
round preliminary to the main event
is wonderfully developing the power
behind his punches and will give
the local boxer the mill of his life
