s. F. Thacher of Yale, son of John F. Thacher of Hartford, is in Wash ington. the guest of Captain c. W. Fl Ter. Thacher, who is a junior in the Sheffield Scientific school, and well known as wrestler and strong man in college circles. is in Washington to take part in the tests of various col lege men to determine their strength with a view of having them enter inter in the Olympian games at St Louis. The trials were held Tuesday and Wednesday, and undergraduates from Yale, Harvard. Princeton, Cor nell Columbia and Lehigh competed. These tests were strictly private and no information has been given out concerning them. The men themselves do not even know how they stand.
 It is reported here that young Thacher made a wonderful record In fact 1t is claimed that he broke all pre- vious collegiate records. He broke one of the machines at least, and he will certainly qualify for the trials at St Louis.
 While the trials were going on, De, Witt, the famous Princeton athlete challenged Thacher to wrestling match. two falls out of three attempts Thacher took him up at once, ana 6 friendly match was arranged. De Witt weighs considerable over POI pounds, while Thacher tips the scales at 172. Much to the surprise of tht

WRESTLING IN ENGLAND

wrestling is going to become a giant society craze this season. Tho king has given 1t his approval, the Bath club has made 1t feature in their gym naslum, and the young society lions of tne west end of London have installed leading professional to instruct them ln its art and mysteries King Ed ward has given instructions to have a stage for wrestling added to the gym nasium at Buckingham palace. It will be remembered that when John l.. Sll- ltvan visited England the. king, then the Prince of Wales, commanded him to appear at Marlborough house, and so impressed was, he with the great man that he had stage for boxing added to the gymnasium at once. Other society establishments are fol- lowing the example of the king and wrestling accommodation Is being im- provised in all manner of shapes. Neg lected billiard rooms are being cleared out and turned into gvmnasia, due re- gard being paid to the requirements of society wrestlers. Hotels and clubs in course of construction are provided with special accommodation for wrest- ling. Tn many places the swimming baths are being covered over with a special contrivance so that they can be turned into gymnasium as the occa- sion demands. The Duke of Marl- borough's new house is provided with gymnasium which will admit wrest- ling, boxing or any other form of man ly exercise.

Manager Joe Lawlor is not yet dis couraged, although he has been up against 1t pretty hard in the last two wrestling tournaments he has given. Each one has been attended by some unfortunate happening which has caused him to lose many dollars. He will make one more effort if possible to pull out what he has dropped and will endeavor to give the following matches if 1t is possible. The three contestants he has in view are cork ing good ones. First. he would bring together Ed O'Connell of New Haven and Loucks Of this city. Jack Roach of this city and Speh of Derby would make another of the preliminaries, and then for the final he would try to bring together for final match John E. Kelly of this city and Billy Cnaki.

JEFFR1Es LIKES HOME.

Regarding his coming match with Munroe Jeffries said yesterday before he left New York: s1 expect to whip him in handy fashion, but don't wish 1t inferred by that that think him an easy proposition I shall train for him as I would for anybody after my title -conscientiously and faithfully. 1Aill not take any chances. 1 will only require five weeks of solid work for the fight because have not been loaf ing to any extent My tour on the road and the daily boxing bouts have aided me no little in perfecting my wind and keeping in trim. Then, again, have plenty of sleep and out door exercise. I will spend few days at Oakland and Los Angeles, my home, before I start active work. wish to stop with the old folks few days before I buckle down to my labors. Mingling with the old 'uns after you've been away is a good balm for the nerves like to be with my parents, because they are always fr- terested in me, and, although not strictly superstitious, I believe that a visit to them, or a handshake, or a good old-fashioned meal at home, brings good luck"

Tommy Ryan's manager, SiIvi Fer reH of Chicago Is authority for the statement that Ryan cannot meet Ar thur Cripps the Australian feather weight. He suggests that Cripp take on Hugo Kelly. Ferreti says: "I see Gripps has challenged any fighter at his weight, but prefers Ryan. Now, as Ryan Is practically tied up with Jack O'Brien will match Hugo Kelly with Cripps at the mfdd1eweight limit but it must be ten rounds or more Kelly will box any white middleweight in the world Arthur Cripps or Jack O'Brien preferred.'' -~~

MiddlefoWn Players Do the Trick Easily Results of Other Games Played Last Night--NOtes.

The final basketball game for the championship of the state between the Sterling Five Of this city and the Mid dietown Y. M. o. A. team was played in Middletown, and was won by Mid dletoWn by the score of 30 to l3. The game was witnessed by large crowd which went wild at times over the fine work of both teams. It was a fast and lively game and abounded with brilliant playing on both sides. Sensational shots, which brought the spectators to their feet, were very fre- Quent.
 MiddletoWn started off with a rush and inside of three minutes McCon- nech1e had caged three, goals from al- most the center of the floor. He was the bright particular star of the game. He caged seven goals from the field and every shot was sensational one. His all around work was fine. The M1ddletown team thus secured the lead in the beginning and kept it through out the game. The first half ended with the score IA to 4. In the second half the Sterlings had little better luck and scored 9 points, while the
  Though beaten, the Brass city team made a good showing. The Middle ! town boys had the advantage of play ing on their own floor. Waterbury had as many chances to cage goals as their opponents, but they were little un- lucky. But they have no kick to make and accept their defeat gracefully. William Curtis says that it was the l fastest game in which he has ever played. The lineup of the teams was as follows:

Norwich Thrown Down But Not Counted Out-ReSultS
 of Games Yesterday-In-
 tereSting Bits of Ball News

K. B. Tracy of Norwich and others are trying to form 6 new state league to be composed of the cities that can not maintain Connecticut league teams. The towns to make up the new league will be New Britain, Norwich, Man chester, Willimantic, Bristol and Rock vile.
 That such league would pay there is no doubt. With limited salary list, four games a week, two at home and two abroad, careful management by talent employed would insure success. Bristol wants league ball. Manchester intends to play two games a week at home and pay their players for play ing only. This scheme would just ait them. Danny Dunn is willing if the association is willing to join. Rock vile wants to beat them all, and the chances would be nicely held up to them by tacking on to the circuit There may be some difficulty in get ting the circuit formed right away. Manchester, Rockville, Willimantic and Bristol teams are backed by associa- lions, and it will require the sanction of the stockholders to jump from inde- pendent to league ball. During next week the promoters will see Managers Jackson of Rockville, Farrar of Man chester and Roberts of Bristol in the interests of the league.
 All the towns played Saturday ball only the last four years and made money. Last season the salaries were high, yet Manchester, Bristol and VIII limantic cleared each between $500 and $1 GOO each.
