day go on the road again. He says
Wilmer is q big, strong fellow, and he

when they meet on the mat.
Manager George Touhey stated last
evening that Wilmer was in the pink

sued. Tom tried in every conceivable
way to get the strange hold on the
pesky insect but the swamp song bird
Won out and put Tom out of business.
He is now bathing his neck so as to be
