scales at 19O pounds, but he was appar-
emily far inferior to his antagonist in point
of strength. w. n. Bingham umpired for
Dufur and c. T. Abbott acted in that
capacity for Dunbar. At S:35 the men
donned their jackets and took their holds.
WINNING THE MATCH.
First Bout-Dunbar hoped over the can
vas in lively manner, showing considerable
activity, and he at once assumed the agrees
i've. Several attempts were made by each
man to eaten a hip lock on his antagonist
without effect. Dufur at last caught an in
side grapevine and struggled to turn his man,
but the unknown held him and
the attempt proved a failnre. After
several minutes wary sparring Dunbar at
last suddenly caught hip lock and threw
his man, but he struck on his side and rolled
Dunbar. The referee decided 1t no fall and
the men resumed their work. Dunbar tried
to get hip lock two or three times without
success, but at last succeeded in getting an
inside grapevine and by terrible wrench
threw his man fat. The referee declared il
fall. Time, IL minutes.
The cheers of the audience shook the
building, and cries of DUNBAR" Dunbar
went up from nearly every lip in the house.
The victor walked to his chair, breathing
rather hard and perspiring freely. AT this
point Mayor Ames Of Minneapolis entered
the hall and everybody yelled ''Amesw
''Amesw Speech" "Speechw A fter
the cry had gone round several times Mayor
Ames stood up. and said he had just passed
thro ugh hard tussle and was tired, and
he had come down that night to see some
body else get tired and not to make a
speech. With this the crowd let him off.
Ten minutes were allowed the men to recu-
perate.
THE SECOND BOUT.
Second Bout-At one-half minute past 9
o'clock the two men found each other in the
ring for the second bout. Dunbar went to
work Immediately and succeeded in catching
an inside grapevine on Dufur, who went
down but struck on his side and turned Dun
bar on his back, but he saved himself by
bridging. Dufur got an inside grape
vine on Dunbar and it was a terri
bic struggle for half minute, and
Dunbar at last succeeded in breaking
away from it, which brought frantic demon
STATIONS from the crowd, but almost before
the crowd had ceased cheering Dufur caught
another grapevine, which he suddenly
changed to hip-lock, and in a twinkling the
Mystery lay fiat on his shoulders and hips.
The referee gave the fall to Dufur. Time
four minutes and-a-half.
1t was quite apparent that while Dunbar
possessed a great amount of bodily strength.
he lacked the science to render him an
equal contestant with Dufur, and it took
big odds to get bets on him. He also
showed signs of weakening, and the pers-
piration rolled down his face in tiny
streams.
Third Bout-Each man had now won bout,
and when at 9:16 they came into the ring for
the third bout the audience looked tor some
good work. In this round, as all others, Dun
bar did the work and Dufur the execution. It
was quickly settled, so quickly and easily
that 1t was easy to see that Dunbar was
no match for the Marlboro man. Dunbar
caught an inside grapevine and tugged to
&c OdN vl.< gnflx
and brought Dunbar by sheer strength to his
face. The men had hardly been up a minute
when Dufur got an inside grapevine and
threw his man, winning the fall in just three
minutes.
Dunbar was blowing spasmodically, while
Dufur was apparently as fresh as when he
first entered the ring. Dunbar's aggressive
conduct was telling on him, but he was
plucky and came promptly TO the scratch
for the fourth bout, which was the longest
and most hotly contested bout in the
match.
Fourth Bout-Dunbar went to work imme-
diately after securing his hold and tried hip
lock, but it protited him nothing. He next
caught grapevine and threw Dufur, who
quickly rolled him, but he saved himself by
bridging Again the men went at their work.
Dunbar was breathing hard and sweating
like a beaver. After a few minutes
devoted to sparring, Dunbar called
for water, and, although he had right to
object, Dufur did not do so. After drinking
the match went on. Dufur caught an inside
grapevine, which Dunbar succeeded in break
ing. Dunbar tried the same tactic with like
result. He next caught an outside grape
vine, but was too weak to hold it and was
forced to his face on the canvas. He next
wound his leg around that of Dufur and threw
him, but he struck on his side and rolled
Dunbar, who saved himself by bridging
Again Dunbar tried the same move, and he
would have undoubtedly have succeeded id
hooring his man had mol his jacket slipped
over his head. This brought cries of "foul -
'get Duflr jacket that fits him" and other
remarks from the audience, which showed
that their sympathy was with the stranger.
Nalnly Dunbar strove to catch hip locks
toe-locks and grapevines on his antagonist,
but he was getting too weak to hold them and
his umpire had to furnish him with another
dose of water. Once more Dufur's Jacket
slipped OFF over his head, when it seemed as
though he was about to succumb to the terri
BILE strength of Dunbar's arms, and again did
the audience loudly kick, but the
referee was memorable and decided
that the jacket was all right.
Dufur fought carefully and allowed Dunbar
TO exhaust his strength, when he suddenly
caught an inside grapevine, which he quickly
abandoned for hip lock- and in an instant
the Mystery was lying on his back with three
successive falls against him. This ended the
match in Dufur's favor. Time twenty-four
minutes.
1t was an interesting exhibition of
strength on the part of Dunbar and science
on the part of Dufur. The people got their
moneys worth of sport, but Dunbar was
too greatly over-matched to render the con-
test close one. AT the close of the match.
Dunbar still refused to reveal his identity,
and took his defeat with good grace.
SAYS HE Is FLAGG.
