everything horrible occurs during fair

both in luck. Tom Keene is placarded as
the boss of all Richard-the-Thirds in Chi
cago. and the other Tom is running a
frst-class gymnasium at No. 1913 Blocker
street, New York. The last time Tom was
in Eureka, something over two years ago,
he introduced the quiek-stepper Johnny
| Oddly against Freeman's Kate Lorenzo, in
q walking match. Tom couldn't make a
raise, as the girl got mad and wouldn't go.
Then be gave lessons in the manly art -
but the gun and the knife being favorites
in those days, Toms revenue from that
source was barely sufficient to keep body
and soul together /; SO he got up a series OF
| tournaments, wherein wildcats, dogs,
badgers, etc., took part, and where the
bows could wrestle and box. In n Of
these entertainments Billy Lynn and Matt
| Sleeves had a lively set-to. Kean was a

ports are circulated OF new proposals for treaty
