WRESTLING GOSSIP.

Jack Munroe believes that he has q
fine chance of defeating Tom Sharkey
at wrestling and accordingly asks for
an opportunity to meet the quondam
sailor on the mat. Munroe is willing
to enter into any reasonable compact
and will post forfeit as soon as
Sharkey displays a willingness to
wrestle him.
Denny Gallagher. of Buffalo, who
few years ago, used to be regarded
as one of the best grapplers in the
business, was a very easy opponent
for Jim Parr at Fenton's Theatre,
Buffalo, the other night. Gallagher
and Parr came together to a finish but
Gallagher was defeated twice inside
of nineteen minutes.
George Bothner is going to emulate
the example of Tom Sharkey, Jim
Crobett, Kid Mccoy. ct. Ia, and go
into the saloon business. Bothner be-
lieves thatssthe life of wrestler is
too strenuous when a man has to de-
vote his spare time giving instructions
to ambitious pupils. Bothner runs a
gymnasium in this city in partnership
with Billy Elmer. He says he will
not give up his work on the mat al
together, but will be ready to wrestle
anyone in his class. Bothner intends
to start in the saloon business next
fall.
George Fisher, of this city, who
was present at the recent contest be-
tween Max Brenner of the Mott Haven
A. O., and Max Luttbeg, has issued a
challenge to wrestle either Luttbeg or
Brenner. Fisher will agree to throw
Brenner three times in one hour.
1t seems as if Nick Elliott, of this
city, will not be able to undertake the
trip to England and meet Jack Car
keek in London next September. A
few weeks ago Elliott received an
offer from well-known English
sporting promoter asking him to come
to England and wrestle Carkeek.
Elliott promptly sent reply accept
ing and naming his terms. He re-
ceived an answer yesterday in which
he was informed that the club where
the contest is to be held Will not allow
him any expenses Elliott then call
ed the bout off. Elliott is now ready
to wrestle any heavy weight in the
business for side bet and purse.

SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP.
Cured by One Bottle of Chamberlain S
Cough Remedy.

"When I had an attack of the grip last
winter (the second one) I actually cured
myself with one bottle of CHAM erlain's
Cough Remedy" says Frank w. Perry, edi-
tor of the Enterprise. Shortsville, N Y
''This is the honest truth. I at times kept
from coughing myself to pieces by taking
teaspoonful of this remedy; and when the
coughing spell would come on at night L
would take dose and it seemed that in the
briefest interval the cough would pass off
and would go to sleep perfectly free from
cough and it's accompanying pains. To say
that the remedy acted as a most agreeable
surprise is putting it very mildly. I had no
idea that it would or could knock out the
grip, simply because I had never tried it Tor
such purpose, but it did, and it seemed
with the second attack of coughing the rem
edy caused it to not only be of less duration
but the pains were far less severe and had
not used the contents of one bottle before
Mr., Grip had bid me adieu.' For sale by

BICYCLES TO BE
GIVEN AWAY
Generous Offer Made by The
Great Home Paper.
ONE TO BOY; ONE TO GIRL
Who Gets 100 Cash subscriptions to
The Paper. Open to Every Boy
and Girl i'll the County.

The Herald has decided to give
away a couple of elegant $50 BIZ
cycles, one to boy and one to a
girl of Grant county. And they
will not cost either one of them a
cent of money. All they will have
to do is to devote a little of their
spare time to soliciting subscriptions
to the Herald. The contest will be
open to every boy and girl in the
county and the ones who hustle the
best will get the money.
To the girl who gets 100 paid sub
scriptions at Is cents each for the
Herald for six months one of the
wheels will be given. To the boy
who secures 100 paid up subscrip-
lions for six months at rs cents each
will be given the other wheel.
The wheels are of the same make,
strictly high grade and finely fin
ished, well worth the effort of any
boy or girl in the county. AS there
undoubtedly will be number in
the contest, we have decided that
all shall be well paid for the time
they spend soliciting subscriptions,
and to all who do not get a wheel a
liberal cash premium will be paid
for each subscription secured.
This is one of the best offers ever
made by newspaper publisher in
the state and there ought to be a
host of boys and girls to take adj
vantage of the liberal proposition.
Further particulars Of the contest
will be given later, but lose no time.
Commence work at once, for the
contest will close when the wheels
are given away. Remember that
the first girl to get 100 subscriptions
will get one Wheel and the first boy
to get 100 subscriptions will get the
other wheel.
There are numerous cheap bicycle
propositions on the market, but this
offer should not be confused with
them. The wheels the Herald will
give away are strictly high grade,
guaranteed to be all that is said for
them and furnished by a reputable
house.

Another ridiculous food fad has been

They have dispelled the silly notion that

other for muscles. and still another for

sustain every other part. Yet, however
good your food may be, it's nutriment is des-
troyed by indigestion or dyspepsia. You
must prepare for their appearance or pre-
vent their coming by taking regular doses
of Green's August Flower, the favorite
medicine of the healthy millions. A few
doses aids digestion, stimulates the liver to

makes you feel buoyant and vigorous. You

Carthage deacon, over-tempted by the
sunshine, hitcheu his team to his sur
rey and drove with his grandchildren
to Center creek. While he was not
looking the young folks slipped some
jointed fishing rods and tackle under
the seat. Arriving at the creek they
pulled them out, much to the old gen

of this fish set him wild. The girl
couldn't land her prize and the deacon
pulled it in for her. Then, batting the
hook, he began angling on his own ac-
count, and soon landed a four pound
bass. Forgetting the Sabbath and all
else save the glorious sport hewas hav
