test last night AZ the Boar War Exhibit
The affair vss Of interest to the large
crowds in attendance. The preliminary
bouts were between six OF the United
States soldiers and six British. and six
United States soldiers an: six Beers
The I-rifed S,ates soldiers showed re-
Inarkable training and skill in remain
fested was the Beers. Notwithstanding the
TACT that Commandsnt Mol put ND a long
and vigorous fight before he vas finally
thrown from his horse The contest lasted
excitement among the spectators many Of
whom had never previously witnessed
such a contest.
The British were equally unsuccessful
IN throwing Uncle Sans boys. The evi-
dent training and skill Of the Americans
was much in contrast to that Of the Brit
ish. who did not have the same team work
or skill.
The most remarkable incident OF the
whole contest VAS the work Of Corporal
Driscoll of the British contingent. Long
after the other i've British soldiers had
been thrown D:iscoll was still on his
horse. surrounded by the six United States
soldiers. For over five minutes he was
surrounded. and with many vain cn1cay-
ors IL seemed Impossible for the Americans
