COLUMBIA GLIB.

The sporting event of this week will
be the catch-as-catch-can wrestling
match between Jack King, the cham
pion five-style wrestler of the world,
and Louis Zobel. the champion cannon
ball juggler of the Northwest. Zobel
has accepted Kings challenge, as was
predicted in the GLOBE. and $500
a side was posted last even
ing with the GLOBE. Ihe
conditions are that King is to throw
Zobel three times in an hour. Zobel is
wonder in strength and endurance,
and he is confident thathe will win the
stakes. King is in hard training at
Fort Smelling for the battle. and Zopel
is training at the Phoenix Athletic club.
At the conclusion of this match Zobel
challenges King, or any other athlete in
the Northwest, to feats of heavy weight
lifting, and King says he will certainly
accept.

An Alleged Swindler.


There was some cOmmOtiOn
around the police station about
$3.50 o'clock last night, when a tele-
phone message was received stat
ing that WOldemar Friesen had
swindled a number of people and
was making arrangements to leave
the city. The message stated also
that he was riding around in hack
No. The mounted officers went
out to find the man and soon over
took him riding in carriage to-
wards the |. & G. n. depot. They
took him to the station where it
was later learned that F'riesen had
not been swindling, but that he
had intended leaving San Antonio
deeply in debt, and his victims
were frightened for fear they would
lose their accounts. The officers
gave the man a "lecture" and be-
fore he left he placed in the hands
of Captain Jesse Bennett sufficient
money to cancel all of his debts in
this city. He then took a train for
New York, from where he will sail
for Russia to get $4,000 fortune
left him by his mother three days
ago.

ASSAULT To:MURDER.
Luz Garcia Stabbed by Theo. Ire
vino, Who is Now in Prison.

VINO, VINO is NOW In PRISON.
Theodore Trevino, a gambler,
aged % years, stabbed Luz Garcia,
member of ArtZ band, at the
Washington theatre about | o'clock
this morning, and then fled.
At this hour Garcia was taking
drink at the bar at the above
named theatre, where Trevino
stepped up and invited himself to
drink with the musician. "All
right" said Garcia, "what will you
havew The drink was ordered
and just before they left the bar,
Trevino suddenly pulled a long
knife out of his pocket, and stabbed
Garcia in the breast, cutting deep
cash. Trevino escaped and
nothing could be seen Of him. Gar
cha, when he partially recovered,
went to the Central police station
and reported the stabbing atfray to
the officers in charge. The wound
was examined and DR.. Menger, the
city physician, was summoned. He
dressed the cut, taking three
SUlucneS, anu PRONOUNCED ~ oil ugly
cash, though nothing very serious.
Garcia was then taken to his nome
on Monterey street, near Washing
ton square, and the mounted Of
ficers set out to search for Trevino.
About the hour of 3:l5, after the
officers had about concluded to
give up the chase, one of them was
informed that TrevinO could be
found at the corner of Monterey
and Frio streets. They FASTENED
to the place and there found their
victim. He was taken to the police
station and committed to prison
on the charge of assault with in
tent to murder, and will be trans
ferred to the county jail this morn
ing, where he will remain, await
ing the action of the grand jury.
There is no cause assigned for
this rash deed, as both TrevinC
and Garcia have been warm
friends and never had any Difficult
ty. However, there may be a rea-
son for the actions of TreVinO
which will come to light when the
trial comes off.

RED BRICKSP
For the Fair, From the Express.

For the Fair, From the Express.
There will be a mass-meeting of
the citizens of San Antonio at the
Grand opera house tonight.
The object is to start that big
Fair project rolling.
Be on hand and bring your neigh
Dor with you.
Come prepared to say what you
will do.
Figure out today how much and
in how many ways a big Fair
would benefit San Antonio.
Figure out how much it would
benefit you individually.
Then resolve to give - per cent
of your prospective profits to make
it hum like a red top.
Don't be clam. Don't sit down
and wait for your neighbor to
shove property values up ten per
cent for you.
If you want a thing done shuck
your linen and go at it yourself.
otherwise you may nurse the
fag-end of hope deferred.
Brace up and do something for
yourself and your city.
Grab rope and swing back un-
til your eyes bulge out.
We've got a prize and must land
it.
Don't forget all about it, and
then spend Sunday telling what
you would have done had you been
there.
Be there.
This is the night that either
makes us or foredoes us quite-sC
| far as that Fair is concerned.
