short history of this organization,

1t made such success that pro-
tessional opera company was the
next step. The performances were
of such high order that the name
soon became famous and their com

great pleasure. Some of the bright
est stars now on the professional
stage graduated from the ranks OF
the company, among whom are
Della Fox, Marie Dressler, Charles

The Salon des-Fetes of the Grand hotel
was crowded to its utmost capacity when

menced to play last night.
Slosson led off with eleven, but his bad
form of Monday persisting. Sutton won
with comparative ease with a score of
500 to 306 in twenty innings. SUIT

The game lasted three hours. Count
Dree acted as umpire. Slosson attributes
his bad form to rheumatic pains, from
which he is suffering, and to the excess
sive' heat of the hall, which greatly in
commoded both players. Both players
were applauded repeatedly by the specta-
tors, especially. Slosson's run Of II in the

SECONDS, using a. nalr-NClSOn ana crotch
hold.
Supporters Of Nelson were vociferous in
their offers. of wagers that their champion
would win the second fall. but fortunately
for them, they found few takers. The
German was unable to send Nelson to the
mat, ard finally Moth himself deliberately
dropped to the carpet. While the Nor
Wegian was vainly endeavoring to secure
half Nelson the Teuton got an armhold,
rolled Nelson over his back, and pinned
him to the floor. The time was three
minutes and seven seconds.
The third bout, at catch-as- catch can,
was the longest of the match. Moth was
more on the aggressive than he had been
In the first round, but he found it impos-
sible to get a sure hold on the NorWegl-
ans bulky frame, and Nelson was soon
on top again. Moth displayed great clev-
erness in breaking holds, and wriggled out
of several tight places by bridging or
rolling. Finally the Norwegian turned
him with a half-Nelson, and though Moth
bridged at once, Nelson soon bore him to
the mat by sheer weight. The time was
fourteen minutes and forty-six seconds
Nelson Looks Groggy.
Nelson was grogggy at the conclusion of
this round, and Moth had no trouble LII
winning the fourth bout at Graeco-Ro-
man. He again allowed himself to be
caught and thrown with the same arm
hold which had won the second bout for
Moth. The time was four minutes and
tWenty-four seconds.
When Moth won the toss for the final
fall, the result of the match seemed a
foregone conclusion. Neither man showed
a disposition to go to the mat. Moth
apparently was trying to Wind Nelson by
chasing him around the ring. When they
finally went to the carpet, Moth quickly
secured the hanlmerlock which won him
the match. The time Of the last fall was
eleven minutes.
The work Of Referee George Cole gave
perfect satisfaction, and the match was
enc Of the cleanest and best ever seen In
the city. During the evening, A. H. Eel
Key, who claims the lightweight cham
pionship Of America, took the stage and
challenged any 140-pound man In the
twin cities, or any 1s5pound man in the
country.

amused the crowd by few feats OF
strength before the main event.

WEST GETS GOLF TOURNEY
National Women's Championship
Will Be Held on the Links
of Chicago Club.

Chicago was selected as the scene of the
next woman's national championship at
the annual meeting of the United States
Golf association at Delmonico's last even
ing.
For the past six years this event ha.
been held in the east and for the first
time since the formation Of the u 8. G.
A., western women who have an oppor-
tunity of measuring their skill with their
eastern sisters in their own territory, the
course selected being that Of the Chicago
Golf club of Wheaton. The national
championships were awarded as follows:
Amateur-Nassau Country club of Glen
Cove, l.. l.
Woman's-Chicago Golf club, of Wheat
on, Ill.
Open-Baltusroi Golf club.
The date selected for the amateur event
is the week beginning Aug. 81. The dates
for the women's and open event will be
selected by the executive committee.
Nassau was the only applicant for the
amateur championship tournament
Both Atlantic City and Chicago golf
club wanted the women's event, but as
Atlantic City got only two votes the Sc
lection of Chicago was made unanimous.
Some of the changes which may occur
during the coming golf season will proba-
bly, cover the barring of the finalist for
the chief cup is an open tournament from
playing in the general handicap, which
is usually feature of the last day.
Golfers are divided as to the wisdom Of
such ruling. Some maintain that as the
event is an open handicap, all should be
eligible, and that the handicaps of the
players should bring the best and the
poorest players on a par. as near as such
a thing is possible. Others claim that
contestants at match play should not be
allowed to count and return scores for
stroke competitions, as the twof orms
of play are different enough to have
special rules for each and different penal
ties. It is further claimed that such a
ruling would prevent the possibility of one
player winning all the prizes at tourna-
ment.

TEAM LACKS MONEY
Minneapolis May Not Be Repre-
scented at National Tourney in
Indiana Next Week.
Chamber Of Commerce Gets a Game
from Tasmos Bankers
League Is Formed.

There is possibility that Minneapolis
may not be represented at the. national
bowling tournament at Indianapolis next
week
According to a prominent member Of
the association which managed the trial
tournament to select a team for the ma
t1ona.l contest, the treasurer of the asso-
citation has not nearly enough funds at
his disposal to cover the expense of the
trip. Each man who entered the trial
tournament paid SIS entrance fee, and in
this way about $3.50 was secured. Part
OF this amount was expended in hiring
alleys for the trial contest. although this
expense was reduced to a minimum by
voluntary contributions from the. alley
There Is now In the treasury of the as
ISOLATION about $40. The game at the
Cooperative alleys Friday night prob
ably will not net more than $50, making
total of $3.50. The expenses Of the trip
are estimated at $500, so that about 500
must be raised before the junket can be
made. A majority Of the bowlers COM
posing the team have stated their unwill-
ingness to make up the deficit out Of their
own pockets. so that the, chances for the
team leaving Sunday night as planned,
are not the brightest
A final effort will be made to complete
the amount necessary for the trip with

their form last night, and permitted the

third game the Tasmos worked up and
rolled the only credtable score of the
evening. Chapman got high score with

MOTH TOO CLEVER
Veteran German Wrestler Makes a
Monkey Of Nelson at Graeco-
Roman Style.
Norwegian Shows Great Speed and
Wins Two Falls at Catch.
as-Catch-Can.

The result of the wrestling match he
tween Moth and Nelson at Century hal,
last night practically hinged upon the fall
of a coin.
Inc match was mixed Graeco- Roman
ana eaten -catch-can. the contract stat
ing that the men should toss for the
cholce OF styles for the fifth bout, if the
contest went that far. Moth had a literal
picnic with Nelson at Graeco-Roman
WINE nelson found scarcely more difficulty
IN putting Moths shoulders to the mat at
the other style. With two falls each, it
seemed practically certain that the ore
VINO won the toss would also take the last
fall and the match, and so it proved.
Moth Won,, elected the wrestle Graeco-
Roman, and got the long end of the purse.
Although the five falls took scarcely
forty minutes of actual wrestling, the
crowd was fully satisfied, for the work
done by both men was Of high order.
Moth showed all the skill which made him
famous years ago, and Nelson, although in
spite OF his great weight. and unwieldly
build, proved remarkably fast, and showed
thorough knowledge of the game of
catch-as- catch-can. The big Norwegian
has had little experience at Graeco-Roman
wrestling, and in this Moth made him look
like a novice.
Nelson Fouls Moth.
In the final bout, Moth secured a ham,
merlock on Nelson. and the Norwegian, to
save himself from being downed caught
Moths leg. Referee Cole immediately de-
clared Moth winner on a foul, but upon
the protests of the crowd. Moth agreed to
waive the claim Of foul and go on with the
bout, provided he. was given the same
hold. Nelson agreed to this, and Moth
had no difficulty in turning him.
Nelson addressed the croud l,r;oa,r ~
the conclusion of the match. He manfully
admitted fouling Moth and admitted the
superiority Of the latter at Graeco-Roman
Nelson said, however, that he was ready
to meet the German at any time in a
match at catch at-ca tch-can
Nelson won the toss for the first fall
