Barker Will Fight.

Although the secret has been jealously guarded for the past five years of Earl Barker's residence in Bemidji, the fact that Mr. Barker is a real heavy weight pugilist has leaked out and an order for a pair of gloves received a few days ago by a St. Paul firm confirms the belief that a fight between Mr. Barker and another well known ring man will be arranged in the near future. The date when the mill will be pulled off has not yet been decided upon, but it is understood that the combatants will begin hard training exercises at once.
