A Wrestling Match.

D. A. Mcmillan and John Ludihee, both
well known in Butte sporting circles, have
signed articles OF agreement for a mixed
wrestling match, for $1,000 a side. to take
place on June 16 at Salt Lake City. The
Salt Lake Tribune says that both men are
powerful and scientific wrestlers, having
appeared in contests with Muldoon and
Whistler, who were lighter men than either
Cudihee or Mcmillan. As regards weight
the two men are as evenly matched as
could be wished. Mcmillan weighing 211
pounds and Cudihee tipping the beam at
210 a~voirdupois. In build they are vastly
different, Cudihee being more square and
compactly shaped in body, while Mcmillan,
with his broad shoulders, seems to tower
above his rival. The boys of Park City
are willing to ''go broke" on Mes gaining
the stakes and rightful claim to the cham.
pionship OF the Coast. Cudihee has a host
OF admiring friends, who have confidence
in his ability to worst Mcmillan and walk
off with the spoils. The affair ifgive ad.
miring ones an opportunity to witness a
splendid wrestling match.

A Tinge OF Romance.

Mr.. Chris Houser, who is well known to
many readers of this paper, got married
the other day, says the Butte ccrrespon-
dent ri the Helena Independent. There is
nothing particularly startling in this fact,
but there is a slight tinge OF romance con-
nected with it. Twenty years ago, when
Chris was a younger. but not a better man.
he boarded with a Mr.. and Mrs. Berry, in
Alder Gulch. Berry was his mining part
ner. A few years after Berry died. leaving
Mrs. Berry with several cbildrent to rear and
educate. Being a lady OF extraordinary
business capacity, she gathered together
considerable property, and q few years ago
removed to Highwood, not far from Ben
ton, where she purchased a ranch and went
into the stock business. During all these
years Chris, who held in kindly remem-
brance the loving wife and afiectionate
mother whom he knew in Alder Gulch, kept
up a correspondence with Mrs. Berry. The
respect which zach entertained for the 9TH
er ripened into love, and-we know the
rest.

who achieve greatness are married long
before the word knows them, and their
w~es are usually as good as they are if
not better. It frequently happens also,
that the very steps taken by the men in
their ascent to fame are made possible by
tls self-denial and devotion OF their
wives. With success achieved and new
friends formed the man may imagine
that he can then find no fit companion

that the pride which leads him on will
