BOXING.
TheBux-Perkins Test On Saturday Evening.
It is some considerable time since any boxing event has caused so much gossip locally as the Bux-Perkins fight which is to take place at the City Hall on Saturday evening, and the partisans are looking forward to the night that is expected to decide which of the two is the superior man. It has been a long and constant. hope that those two lade would be brought together, ond boxing patrons are well pleased that there is to be an opportunity of seeing them mix things. Bath men are, according to the latest information we receive, hard at work for the event. The booking | which has now commenced, if it is the true pulse finder that it is generally accepted to be, re- gisters good prospects for a full house and those who are anxious to witness the night's sport will be ill-advised to leave the booking until late id the week. Although on form Perkins looks a likely winner, be has an opponent in Box who quickly embracea any opportunity that might be flying around, It is perhaps fairer not to hazard any opinion at the moment as to the resp.ive obances of the men as so much can be done and so much can be vadone in the train- ing period. Given nothing un- toward, however, a good show an be expected.
There are two other events which go to make up the bill, but if Bux and Perkins put up the fight they are expected to do, then the supportare of M-F. E.
Hall will be well ratiefied, how- ever the other arrangements turn out.
