gymnasium in old Odd Fellows hall
last evening. And that the captain
himself was conscious of it was betok-
ened by the cavernous smile that light
ed UP his countenance. The chamber
itself is capacious, the ventilation per-
feet and the paraphernalia and appar
atus with which to straighten out the
kinks and correct the imperfections of
the human body perfect. The rotund
host had promised that the event should
be accompanied by a series of friendly
exhibitions, nor was it more. The law
had smiled on him, he obeyed her be-
hests. The stellar event of course was
that which drew the misanthropic
champion of the territory from his
sequesterings and placed him in the
arena with Dan c. Daley, of Chicago,
who bent the beam at least so pounds
heavier than his slender but well seas
oned foeman. 1t was Jim Williams re-
appearance after an almost unbrOken
hermitage of months and his reception
was cordial one. He looked the spare
David beside the stately Goliath as he
advanced at the cali of time and shot
out his left which fell with echoing eff
feet upon the wall of muscle that tow

perfect exhibition and then it only
rose moment and then died out as
DAILY, just to increase the temperature
IN the chairs, went down upon his
knees. Then the Utah champion went
back on his spine with the hurley form
of his opponent gliding over it. 1t was
hoss-n'-h oSs and the crowd that had
begun to warm up as it saw possible
bloodshed was doomed to disappoint-
ment. There was an exchange Of bo-
quets in the sixth and last round and
while there was no smuggling IT, re-
vealed some exceedingly clever work
on both sides.

any. and that stiff punch seems to have
as much iron at its source as ever.
DAILY, who physically outclassed his ri
val, is quite shifty for a big man, and
is a modest, retiring fellow to whom
any man might take liking.
The other events consisted of a four
lround go between H. Kimball and Sam
Clark, another between Francis and
Sloan, which answered the purpose for
which it was intended, and a red-hot
though bloodless debate between Roy
Condie and Bob Carroll, who were well
up in hippodramic parts. Jim Mccall,
of Denver, and Kid Cronin. Of Buffalo.
afforded a very clever exhibition, and
were followed by Jack Hayes and Red
Phillips in a give-and- that reveal
ed more of the comic than the serious
situations Of the arena
Between these numbers were several
songs, while Moss Uno did some clever
work with the rifle.
The captain may now be congratu-
lated. His gymnasium is entitled to
generous patronage. and is credit to
any city.
