The Preliminary.
The preliminary sparring match be-
tween Frank Mosman of Walden, and
Jack Armstrong OF Denver, last Sat-
urday night was three round affair
and productive of great deal of
amusement for the sport loving crowd.
Both boys went at it with will and
displayed considerable pugilistic
skill. -.
The Glove Contest.
The contest was between Eslie
Wynn of Walden, young man un-
known TO the sporting fraternity, n
coal miner, an industrious lahorer,
with no experience inside the ropes,
but who his friends thought could
hold his own with Charles Williams,
the Montana Kid, . stranger who
came into town few weeks ago with
considerable of reputation rs. q
prize ring hero.
Everything being i'll readiness, the
gong was sounded, and the contest
ants went at each other with some
caution, the KID being somewhat ag-
gressive in the first round. Having
had more experience he resorted To
tactics with which his opponent was
not familiar, and eluded in dexter
GUS way severe punishment that
otherwise would most certainly have
been his lot, until the referee cau-
toned him to change his methods, or
he would receive the ruling he de
served.
Wynn became the aggressive
puncher for several rounds and the
contest was warming up, so that when
the twelfth round was reached both
men were putting in good licks; and
from then on to the close both con
testants made things rather lively.
If dodging punishment counts
points, then the Kid was ahead il
standing up and striking from the
shoulder and taking the consequences
is to count, then Wynn ought 10 win.
The Kid Is quick and experienced,
and strikes Il hard lick, while Wynn
lacking the experience, is not SO
quick, but is a formidable antagonist,
in strength,
At the end of the sixteenth round
for reasons that the referee will have
to explain the contest was declared
draw. More or less dissatisfaction
was felt, but that is matter with
which the USroN does not have to
deal. Neither of the contestants suf-
fered much. The Kid had bad
wrist, and Wynn's eyes were diseol-
ored and his nose had little scratch.
The contest furnished few hours
entertainment for several hundred
peoplc--drawing into the audience a
half dozen or SO LADIES.
Such amusements are not new.
Rome had her gladiatorial contests
that furnished pastime to tens OF
thousands at once Spain, her bull
fights, kept up even to-day. Why
should not Walden have a glove con
test once in while?

An inventive turn of mind sometimes
leads its possessor into peculiar Difficult
ties. A Boston daily paper tells of a
man who devised a one-piece rubber
lined cotton undergarment. which was
intended 10 be soft and warm and at
the same time waterproof. He expect
ed to make a fortune by the sale of the
same 10 miners, seafaring men and
others whose occupations are pursued
in damp or wet places.
Unfortunately, however. when he
donned the new garment and it became
warm, the rubber melted and stuck to
his body, I'D the fabric was only re-
moved W the aid of pair OF scissors
and a Scra. ing knife.
Something similar, although from
different cause. happened 20 an Indiana
tramp who was prowling around in
