weight, Burt Chadwick, of Canton, the

watched to see If his string of one hun
dred wins will be broken. The articles

of the gate receipts to winner and loser

connected. Strangle holds will be
barred. Police Gazette rules will be
observed. The winner is declared by
securing two falls. Chadwick is a
young fellow of good habits and he de-
serves to have the full support of all
the local followers of wrestling. He is
above everything else sensible against

worked on the unsuspecting public
When asked who takes care of his
management, he replied, Il do all the
work that connects me with the game.
Il think | have a few brains, anyway,
and / try to use them as well as |

commerce is about equally divided be-

case of China and Asiatic Russia i'm
ports greatly exceed exports. Prob

of the countries in question. taken as
a whole, is in the form of imports, and
the United States is year by year sup

OF the exports from the countries

The more important of the exports
of the United States to the section in

RAFFLED CANDY
In Spite of Hanrahan's
Protest.

During the Masonic fair last week
an exciting incident happened that
has been suppressed during the past
few days but came to light yesterday.
Mrs. Giessen, matron of the candy
booth had been rafting off candy that
had been there several nays and there
by getting rid of all the stale candy.
Mr.. Hanrahan, the manager of the fair
did not seem to think well of this
method and told Mrs. u-essen to dis
continue 1t, but Mrs Giessen had
views OF her own on this subject and
threatened to take the remaining rs
pounds of candy and the girls who
were helping her and strike, if she
was compelled to stop this method
of getting rid Of the stale candy. A
meeting of the board of directors was
called, but after considering the mat
ter they decided that the fair would
not go very well without candy
booth, so Mrs. Giessen and her girls
continued to rattle candy the rest OF
tn. week much to Mr. Hanrahan s
discontinue.

a Russian warship engaged the Jap

One Japanese vessel was sunk as was
the Russian warship. Chinese junks

pointed out that the last authentic
accounts from Port Arthur showed
that no Russian warship Is or has
been outside the harbor to more thar

there is no credible reason why the
Japanese should lan1 force in the
