out the winner iii 81 wrestling match upon.
Tho Academy stage, having last night
won both first and second rounds of the
contest, which, or course. made a third
unnecessary, the match being for tho
best two out of three.
The contest was spirited and rapid

fast work 1t required Just forty-scHcn
minutes for DWyer to put down the Eng
]ishrnnn. Joe Carroll. It was nip and
and there were moments when the big
crowd was on lts feet. 30 great was the

b 9TH IN GOOD SHAPE.
Both men appeared to be IN good con-
dition,S ana were evenly matched as TO
weight Dryer having the better Of It
byfn pound and a half, though the opin-
ion Of the audience seemed to- be that
the Englishman was the heavier OF the
two. Dryer, however, weighed 165
pounds and Carroll 163 H. "a
The two men shook hands. and then
the match commenced ii 1t was evident
from the start that Carroll had the good
NO. A1,,,,- Tan nf a
audience, for there was quite "a demon
stration upon every point he made, and
every advantage he gained.
An outsider might have supposed that
both wrestlers We're Richmond men, and
that the audience was evenly divided IN
their support.
While the first round consumed forty
! sever minutes. 1t was by no tmea MS SLOW
Dwyer and Carroll kept the audience
guessing all the time and Dwyer seemed
to be more scientific than his opponent,
but the latter possessed the strength,
and agility and was no mean adversary
by any means. Both men were STOOD
upon their. heads several times during the
bout When Dwyer finally got Carroll
down. the audience went wild with en-
| thusiasm.
SECOND FALL.
The second trial only lasted twenty min
utes. when the Englishman was again
put down The work In this round was
also fast. Tho match was q far better
one than that between $Dwyer and FAR "a Y
| delio. There were no resting moments
LIN the contest last night, and there was
1 no hugging the mat TO play for wind
The Englishman was very nearly as
! speedy, as Dwyer and he made the latter
| move about at his quckest t pace. no bad
1 feeling was manifested on either side
during the matches. At its conclusion
! both men shook hands. and Carroll an
nounced to the audience that he had been
! fairly beaten
Dwyer made q few remarks with re-
| ference TO tho challenge sent Monroe.
| He said that he did not wish the match
to come of as early as the 10th. as he
| wanted time to rest up little before
again entering a contest. The terms OF
| the challenge were entirely satisfactory.
II Monroe could secure fall from him
within an hour OF actual wrestling. he
| (Monroe) would win.
