The Frisco idols totti of Gresgaina arc very anxious to secure a photograph of Champion Williams in fighting fettle and attitude.

Who is Freeman t Captain Lauge answered the popular question ques-tion rather vaguely this morning w hen he said he was the (trapping young Idahoau who had knocked out Jim Noole. Who is Noble ! A big tellow who at one time "slun!j" jrin in the mills of this city.

Frank EL Itndy says he lias 81000 to bet to $5(K that Williams can defeat Lange, the match to take p.ace thirty days after the Binning of articles. The enthusiastic admirer ad-mirer of the champion will be afforded an opportunity to bet some of his money on the ITtn, at which time Williams will undertake the feat covered :n his :Jl(ioo proposition.
