friday evening was the date set for
the wrestle between A. II. Felkey
and stranger called Walsh, and, it
would have been better for the Lime
Springs sports, (and few Cresco
boys) if it had never come off A good
deal of speculation was indnlged in
as to the identity of Walsh, and after
the wrestle one of his principal
hackers announced him to be Chas
Ward, who is the champion 14O-pouni
wrestler of America. The first fal
was won by Felkey in 25 minutes, the
second by Ward in minutes, and th,
next two won in short order by Eel
key, Ward claiming to be sick from
the second round. Lime Springs boy
lost over $500 on the "straightn tip
given out by those who claimed to be
on the inside. Ward wants to max,
another match with Felkey, but a
last accounts, he couldn't produc,
any financial backing. He left here
tnrn in coup3e of weeks.
