At the Theatre tonig-:t, our local re- presentative ‘‘siugger’’ will ‘meet “"BONEY”’ the famous West Indian Champion in the roped-Arena in a return match.

The ‘'Big Slug- ger’’ got in some very hard and good ones on- the ‘‘Champ.”” who proved him- self to be made of- if we should be plain some other flesh than the ordinary human being. Boney’s hardness is one of his strong forts not to mention Promenade Goneert - will be held at ’ St. Joun’s School House on Oct. 11th. and 12th.
