was . tslegrsphic communication
between the hall .nd Modjeska's
apartments and she was in fever
of excitement all the evening and
kept the wire warm with inquiries
sent along at the rate Of about ten

wild with excitement, and ~hen it
became known that he was not
thrown, but had contested the
match to draw, the Count and his
wife rushed down in = carriage to
the wrestIsr's drsssing-room to EN-
brace him. These facts came to ua

San Francisco who further Ass rts
that Modjsska and her husband have
offered t., back Muldoon against any
wrestler living with $4,000. This
offer Muldoon has declined A. he 10
