WITH THE MREsTLERs.

A letter that came to town yester- day from Harvey Parker reports him sas looking for a match with an Eng lish wrestler who thinks he is. good, but who, according to Harvey, is mere ly a good thing. Harvey says that he will be back in the not very distant future and will probably be in Wor- cester much of the time this coming winter. It is near this city, and that is one of the reasons Harvey selects it as an abiding place. The chances are that Harvey will pull off match or. two here during the winter Brock ton Enterprise.
 Buffalonians refer to Max Wiley as the lightweight wrestling champion. The young man may be an amateur champion, but before he claims any professional laurels he will do well to consult with Harvey Parker or George Bothner.

COLUMBIA WON.

The Columbia yesterday gave the worst defeat to the Constitution that she has experienced this season. The Columbia won by 1 minute 39 seconds actual time and 2 minutes 57 seconds corrected time. The time does not make the difference appear very great, but when the race is analysed and the times on the different legs figured out, it is seen that the Columbia really beat the Constitution twice. sv~~

Long Words.

Antidisest ablishmentarianism is the longest legitimate word in the Eng fish language, but it doesn't hold a candle to Llanfairpwilgwyngyligoger- chwyrndrobwiltyak yakiogogogoch, the name of village in North Wales and which does not more than half express the beauty of the place. The only fault that can be found with it, says the Chicago Inter Ocean, is that it's inhabitants die young from throat troubles.

The worlds champion was, of course. the big draw, ing card. There was no hope of I,ord Derby and Charley Herr being able tO give the champion a race. The croSyd simply wanted to see 5Ketchan's great horse trot. .se a8 Esa E is-T
 The race was little more than an ex- hibition. Charley Herr, dead lame was distanced in the first heat. Geers did not attempt to drive Lord Derby 10 ms limit in the first heat, simply trailing the chestnut stallion. who stepped an easy mile in 2:07A. Tn the second neat heteham allowed his horse to go the first half in only 1:O4N While Geers trailed two lengths back. Lord Derby moved up on the far turn, ana entering the stretch, the pair were on even terms. Ketcham merely let out a wrap or two and with Geers drlVlng the Mabrino King gelding they stepped the third quarter in 8 sec onds
 The clip increased down the stretch put at the distance Lord Derby had shot.hls bolt, tumbling over into a bad break, while Cresceus went on and stepped the last quarter in 293l sec onds. His mile in 2:06 lowered the track record for trotters of 2:06A, held by The Abbot, and the tracks race record of 2:07A, made by himself in the big stallion race.
