Prizefghts Becoming
Popular in Mexico

Mexico City, Sept. 9.-As recently
as three years ago former heavy
weight boxing champion attempted
20 make boxing popular in Mexico
City and fsiled. Today the sport is
intensely popular and the bouts
which are held regularly every Fri
day night in Mexico City attract
crowds that fill the Fronton, huge
structure in which the Spanish game
of pelota is played.
The promoters are so enthused
over the prospects of the fight game
here, that they are planning a com
blnation gymnasium and arena, and
they have already set up school
for boxers in which Mexican youths
are given free instruction in fisti-
cuffs. These students, in return for
this instruction, furnish all the pre-
liminaries to the main bouts and that
they do well is attested by the fact
that the popular verdict so far has
always been that the youngsters are
better than the older principals.
Invitations have been sent to sew
eral well-known boxers in the United
States inquiring as to terms for a
fight here, and the word has evidently
been passed around that the game is
looking up in Mexico, because dur
ing the past few weeks there has
been great invasion of "ham and
egg" fighters who are perfectly will

ships" and as the Cinnamon. were
paid off they either went back to
China or to some other country where
their labor was In demand.
The result was that Chinese trnd-
ers in Chinatown began to suffer, and
one after another had to put up their
shutters. Then suddenly there came
boom. A beautiful actress died
while attending an opium smoking
party. Stories were printed about
the thrills to be experienced in Chi
nese opium dens and public atten.
ton was focused on the sinister al
leys and by-ways Of Chinatown.
Restaurants in which Chinese dishes
could be obtained opened here and
there in Chinatown. Many Ameri-
cans visited them to see how they
compared with similar places in their
own Chinatown and curiosity led a
number of English folk and various
European visitors to do likewise. Al
night they were often filled to over
flowing.
Commercially minded Orientals in
vested their money in the exploita
tion of what was new craze and
for time they prospered exceeding

off, the glamor faded, and people
came to the conclusion that there
were all sorts of cooking that was
really much nicer than Chinese cook
ing. Visitors became fewer and few

shabby restaurants left in London's
Chinatown. What remains of it is
