THE WRESTLING MATCH.
Wiseonsin'S Champion Defeated
i'm Five Rounds,
Giving lack Curkeet, of Michigan, the
victery,
But Lewis Offers to Meet Him in
the Ring for 10000

Last Monday Dodgeville was the
scene of much excitement in the
event of the wrestling match, Cor
nish style, for $500, between Evan
Lewis, of this county, and Jack Cur
keet, of Michigan.
Early in the day the streets were
crowded with men discussing the
merits of the two men who were to
meet in the struggle, and the prob
able chances of who would come out
winner in the contest. Betting was
rather quiet; however few bets
ranging from 81 to $50 were made.
A Michigan man, one OF Curkeet's
hackers, was offering two to one on
his man; this, along with the known
fact that Curkeet had been in the
ring for some ten years, and bore the
reputation of being almost invinci-
BILE in that style of wrestling, had the
effect of discouraging Lewis hackers,
making the bets lighter than might
have been expected.
Long before the time, 3 O'Clock,
every available seat and place was
taken. There were 604 tickets sold,
which with those who held compli-
mentarles numbered nearly 700.
Promptly at 3 o'clock, the time
set, the two men stripped ready for
action entered the ring, and as each
came in received hearty applause.
Both men exhibited much GOODNESS,
each seeming confident of coming
out victorious. No two men per-
haps or better muscle and finer build
ever stepped in ring.
w. d. Pascoe, of Dodgeville, was
chosen umpire for Lewis, and R.
Nichols, of Darlington, for Curkeet,
and Stephen Northey, Esq, of
Dodgeville, as referee.
In the first round, though Lewis
got the best of Curkeet it was evil
dent that while Lewis fully equalled
Curkeet in strength the latter was
far superior in the science of that
style of wrestle; in the second round
Lewis brought Curkeet on his knees
which caused slight dispute be-
tween the umpires, and Lewis,
whose attention was turned to the
dispute, and being off his guard,
Curkeet took the first fall three 9TH
er rounds were had, lasting about
half an hour, being in favor of Cur
keet, the second fall being gained in
the last round. Mr.. Northey, referee,
declared the match won by Curkeet,
when he was loudly cheered, as was
also the remarks of Curkeet before
leaving the ring, that Lewis was the
strongest man he had ever met,
The crowd Immediately dispersed,
going down town where they linger-
ed in groups until late in the even
ing.
Curkeet weighed on the day of.
the wrestle 1877 pounds; is % years
of age; measures feet 10 inches in
height, and has been in practice as a
wrestler since a boy Is years old.
Lewis is % years old; weighs 100
pounds; is 5 feet 81 inches tan, and
has been in the ring less than two
years, in which time he has been in
some eight or ten wrestling contests,
coming out victor in all previous to
this.
Lewis offered to meet his victor
that evening in catch-as- catch can
match for $4,000 a side. The offer
was not accepted, as Curkeet does
not profess to wrestle any but Cor
uish Stvle.

The race for the counties of Iowa,
La Fayette, Grant, Green and Jo-
Davies in the programme OF
the Driving Park associations, for
the 4th of July, will be a grand
event. There are horses in training
in every county named and from
the reports the winner will have to
be flyer.
The train was spinning along to-
ward New York, and two men, who
were evidently from the west, were
engaged in conversation. Finally
one said to the other, "You came
from-?" and paused for his COM
panion to fill out the sentence.
From Wisconsin, sir. "What part?"
continued the first speaker. 'O-s-h-
k-o-s-h" was the reply; "and your
"I'm from Michigan" Central
part?" "K-a-l,a-m-a-z-o-om For a
moment the two men glared at each
other, and then there was a battle.
The train men separated the combat
ants, and it was not until the next
day that they learned that one was
actually from Oshkosh and the other
from Kalamazoo.-Ex.
Many years ago, in the early his
tory of the State, c. C. Washburn
and Cyrus Woodman were partners
in business at Mineral Point, engaged
in real estate and banking. The
firm was widely known and respect
ed wherever known. In 1854, Mr..
Washburn was elected to Congress,
few years later the firm Dissolved
and Mr.. Woodman after spending
some years in Europe, made his
home at Cambridge, Mass. The
names of Washburn and Woodman
are now brought together again by
the recent endowment of an astro-
nomical library by Mr.. Woodman,
to be known as the Woodman As
Economical Library, in connection
with the Washburn Observatory
endowed with such munifcence by
Gov. Washburn and presented to
the State University at Madison.
On the 14th inst, Mr. Woodman
placed in the hands of Chief Justice
Cole, Col. W, F. Villas and Prof
Holden as trustees, the sum of 5000
for library in connection with the
observatory. The terms of the gift
are that one halt of the income shall
be used for the purchase of books
as it ACQUIRES, the other half to &C
cumulate for period of years and
be applied then for books or suit

Oh,MyBack!

That's a common expires

meaning. How much suf-
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
is occasioned by so many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver COM
plant, consumption, cold,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, over
work, nervous debility, &c
Whatever the cause, don't
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will SO quickly and surely
cure such diseases (

it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and max
ing the blood pure and rich.
VIM P. Marshall, of Logans-
port, Indiana, writes: " My wife
has for many years been trou-
bled from pain in her back
and general debility incident
to her sex. She has taken one
bottle of Browns Iron Bitters,
and / can truthfully say that
she has been so much benefited
that she pronounees it the
only remedy of many medi-
cines she has tried"
