Dallas cooking main men in hopeful
| spirits Tor their respective sides coming
out winner In the general main. The
cocks were in good trim for their davis
labor. The score stood this morning, st.
Louis ., Dallas 6. In the first engage
ment st, Louis won, making the score
even. In the next engagement Dallas
won, and in the third engagement st.
Louis won again, making them even in
the general main. AS they were now
even, and the next fight was to decide the
general main, there was more excitement
and anxiety crowded into this
one engagement than had been
IN all the others together
The Dallas cock in this engagement was
an expert. When the st. Louis cock
would make the charge the Dallas con-
testant would sit down and allow ST.
Louis to pass completely over MIN and

charges were made until the Dallas cock
Killed ST. Louis, after which there was an
applause rent the air that could be heard
