WRESTLERS
HARD AT IT.
Both LeOnhardt and Hansen Work.
ing for Coming Match Thurs
day Night.

The following letter has been re-
ceived from Charlie Leonhardt con-
corning his coming match with
Hansen:
Newark, N. j., Sept. IA, 1903.
Editor Evening News:
81 thought l would drop YOU o few
lines to let you know how l am get
ting along for my match With Hansen.
1 am getting in the very best of CON
dition, because I must be. He is one
of the best men in America today, and
weighs more than l do and knows
more than when 1 met him last year.
So when you see me enter the ring
you will see that 1 Am in the best
shape of my life ready to battle a
week, if necessary.
Sincerely yours,
"Charles Leonhardt."
No one doubts but that Leonhardt
is one of the best in the business and
he has many admirers hereabouts. It
has been the wonder that he has not
been here sooner. Leonhardt is known
as a straight, fair and square wrestler
and the sports feel sure there will be
no "Sharkey act" with him on the
mat.
Hansen seems to realize what he is
up against. He knows Leonhardt's
abilities and also his popularity and
realizes that to beat Leonhardt this
time will be a great feather in his cap
and will make him solid with many
of those who have tried to belittle his
abilities heretofore. Hansen, while
he has been training hard here for the
past week, has gone to New York for
a day or two to work in the gymna-
SUM there. The match comes off on
Thursday and will be best two out of
hree falls, Graeco-R Roman. AS this
s the favorite style with both men,
the match will be one of the most in
teresting witnessed here in a long
time. A big crowd has already ex-
pressed their determination to be
present

THE CONTROL OF THE ATLANTIC


The fact cannot be disputed that the
efforts of England and America are. in
large measure, due to fear of being
eclipsed by us. And that raises the uues-
ton: Are we not too loud and pompous in
proclaiming the objects Of our ambition?
Many publications from trustworthy
sources nave caused Englishmen and
Americans to think that it is our ambition
to capture the control of the Atlantic
Could we not in the execution Of our ma
tional plans, be little more discreet and
work in accordance with Moltke's ex-
ample of silence? Do we not iniure our
selves by trying to alarm the whole world
with high sounding words? According to
our view this would be the case when we
are dealing with moneyed rivals, as John
Bull and Uncle Sam. We may already be
compelled to give up the race because
these cousins have longer life financially,
than we. = - - : sE..- '-- =
