Boxing at Taylor
Stephen Judge and Michael Kane Lightweights, Will Meet Tonight
A large crowd of sports from Scranton and vicinity will attend tonight's boxing tournament at Taylor, to be given under the management of the Columbian Athletic association. The star event of the evening will be Michael Kane of Minooka and Stephen Judge of Scranton, a brother of James Judge, the city's undefeated lightweight.
Kane and Judge will box at catch weights. They were matched to meet several weeks ago, but there arose a dispute about conditions and the event was postponed. Since then there has existed quite a little feeling between the men and a lively bout will be the result.
The introductory mills(?) will be as follows: Louis Weibel of Taylor and John Abplanalp of Old Forge, eight rounds at 115 pounds. James Jackson of Old Forge and "Dick" Quinn, colored, brother of the famous "Scaldy Bill" Quinn of Williamsport, six rounds at ??? pounds. John Powell and Thomas Lydon of Taylor four rounds at 125 pounds.
Weber's rink will be the scene of the turney. The ring officials will be Michael Beatty of Wilkes-Barre, referee; A.C. Rose of Scranton, timekeeper; and Larry Kettrick of Scranton, announcer. The first even will be called at 9 o'clock sharp.
