REAKES WON ON A FOUL.
Wiley's Second Interfered to Save
His Nan from Being Legally
Thrown.

The Reakes Wiley wrestling match
at Mt. Pleasant last Tuesday night came
to a sudden ending after over fly
minutes of the hardest kind Of work on
the mat, by Wiley's second jumping in
and catching hold Of Reakes with an
attempt to drag him off his opponent
The referee at once decided that Reakes
was the winner, claiming foul on the
part of Wiley's second.
At the time the interference took place
Reakes had his man nearly TO the mat,
crotch hold on the neck and one arm
turned 80 that il looked as though few
seconds would at least give him fall.
The second claimed that Reakes had
strangle hold on his man, but it looked
very much to those disinterested that
the second saw that his man was to be
thrown and to save him from such q
decision interfered so us to let the match
go by foul instead.
At the beginning Wiley's backer re.
fused to put mp the $3.50 which was to
make the tl 900 with the forfeit de-
posted, claiming the right not to do so
because the referee stipulated upon in
the articles Of agreement could not be
present. A gentleman from Oxford,
Mich, by the name Of John AFFORD was,
however, decided upon and the match
was called on without the extra $3.50
being posted.
After the decision, Wiley's backer put
mp bluff to wrestle his man against
Reakes for $500 a side, the match TO take
place anywhere outside OF Alma or Mt.
Pleasant, and arrangements were made
by Reakes TO accommodate him next
Monday night at Durand. Ii is en-
bodied in the articles for the bout that
the number of spectators is TO be limited
10 twenty friends of each contestant,
and undoubtedly il will be a lively 90.
Wiley proved himself TO be plucky
wrestler, both quick and strong, with
plenty OF science TO back him mp. but
Reakes was the agressor the greater
portion Of the time The attendance
was good, large crowd from Alma go
ing up on the special train to help swell
the number.

SOMETHING NEW IN GLOVES
The Turned-Ovcr Top Has Come ia
BE Feature of Up-to-Dnte
Handwear.

There Is not only new glove this
season, but new way Of wearing it,.
For some time the tailor-made smart
girl has been wearing her glove unbut-
toned and with the top part turned over,
showing the lining. There has been
nothing particularly attractive about this
method Of wearing glove until right
now, says Woman's Home Companion.
But the new glove has been purposeiy
made to be worn with its top turned
over. The upper part of the glove which
turns over in a cuff is lined with either
black kid or some attractive shade which
harmonizes well with the gloves COL
oring. IL the smart girl would wear her
glove with the upper part turned over,
then the manufacturer decided that that
portion of the glove should add to, rather
than detract from, the gloves style
The turnover cuff now matches in color
the stitching of the glove, and the eff
feet is extremely smart. Many times,
when the gloves are made to order, the
turnover cuff portion matches some spe-
cial color note in the gown. With black
cloth custume having a touch of baby
blue at the collar and cuffs black gloves
are worn, with the turnover cuff lined
with the same shade of delicate blue
These gloves fasten with one big but
ton, and are decided fad of the mo-
ment.
