Where the Crowd Haw the Two Great ,
PuglllMt Meet—The Seating.
Carson, Nev., March 1H.—The arena i
Is situated about one-third of a mile ]
from the main street of the town and |
is located in the center of the race !
track. The structure is entirely of j
undressed lumber and has no top. Ar-
rangements were made for a canvas ,
covering in ease of inclement weather,
but otherwise the fighters were to be
compelled to battle practically in the
open air.
The arena is a twelve-sided affair,
each of the sides being a section and
each section containing about 1,500
seats. The seats in each section were
divided into three classes, those near-
est the ring l eing held at $♦«> each,
those next above them at $'20, ami
those at the top, which were not num-
bered. at 85. All of them were good,
although the view from the cheapest
ones was somewhat distant, and the
fine points of the tight could not be
seen from them
The ring was raised about four feet
above the floor of the arena and at
cach corner was an iron post, which
was carefully bound up in cotton bat-
ting to protect the men in the event of
their falling against it. The floor of
the ring was covered with canvas,
although Corbett preferred to tisrht on
the bare boards, as the canvas, he said,
was likelv to hinder the foot move-
ment of the fighters.
The entrance to the grounds was
through one gate only, and this was
