CREIGHTON AND EWIN.

Perhaps the pluckiest fight seen at the City Hall since the memor. able bout between "Jim" Cartlidge and Ewin, was that between Creighton and Ewin for the middle weight championship of the Colony. Both men were in perfect condition and eager for the decision. Creigh- ton was undoubtedly the favourite Although Ewin was also given rousing cheer on entering the ring. Creighton was the stronger man. but Ewin was prettier to watch and the more scientific boxer. He kept remarkably cool throughout the 13 rounds and only towards the end. while attempting to gain a quick decision, did he come out of his shell" and attack Creighton. The latter, adopted bull charges, with head down to escape Ewins' deadly left. These rushes were very ex pensive and Creighton suffered tre mendous punishment. But he seem- ed undefatigable and towards the end, his rushes proved effective and Ewin appeared at a loss to stop them. Time and again, he was hurled against the ropes, Creighton raining a shower of punches. Many went wide, but the few which gut heme, proved the undoing of Ewin.

Ewin Warned.

A good many clinches were forced by Creighton, and Ewin get into a habit of holding Creighton tight in the American fashion, He Way cautioned three times in one round and was spoken to by the referee, Mr. Logan. For the next fow rounds Ewin held both arms aleft after a clinch. Towards the end of the bout, however, he was noticed to fall back into his bad habit..

RAWLINGS. MORRISEY.

Fighting a six two-minute round contest" in the Bantamweight class A. B. Rawlings (Hermes), 1184 lbs., and.A. B. Morrisey (Cornwall) 114) lbs, provided an excellent opening fight. They started off very fast, with Morrisey attacking but leaving himself open. Rawlings had the longer reach and used it to advan- age. He was a stronger puncher and soca established himself, the better man. The pace was very fast and it was feared that they would not be able to keep it up. Morrisey though getting the worst of it was very game. He kept out of reach of Rawlings for the fourth round and gave some nasty purches in the fifth when both men were slogging hard for a knock out..

Morrisey was chased around the ring in the last round and Raw- linge succeeded in getting his man groggy. Everyone expected Mor riasy to be floored at any moment, but he held out to the end and was heartily applauded for his plucky stand. Rawlings was the winner.
