IOWA SPORTS.
Humboldt Man Secures Heavyweight
Championship.

Iowa is showing up this year in the
world of sport as well as in other di-
rections. An Iowa man has won the
championship for heavyweight, catch
as-catch-can wrestler. The name Of
the new champion is Frank Gotch and
his home is Humboldt, Iowa. He de-
feated Tom Jenkins, last years cham
pion, at Bellingham, Washington. Jen-
kins' weight was 210 pounds, while
that of Gotch was twenty pounds less.
The match was for a two thousand
dollar purse and a, side bet of two
thousand dollars.
The contest was one of the most
stubbornly contested and one of the
most sensational recorded in the his
tory Of American wrestling. Jenkins
fought stubbornly to retain the cham
pionship but the Iowa man was too
much for him. Jenkins was clearly
out-classed when foot work was con,
sidered and he~failed at every turn
to solve the tactics of the Iowa man.
He became furious when he found
the championship slipping from his
grasp and at the end Of the last fall
he was in a helpless condition and
was carried from the mat.

ment and returned at 1880 having
been out about five hours. The YER
dict returned gave the plaintiff $50. 25.

BAUGHMAN.--Die of dropsy and
complications. at his home in this
city, No. 500 Third avenue east, at
1915 o'clock d. M, Friday, Feb. 10,
1904, Andrew j. Baughman, aged n
years, IL months and days. Flu
neral Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o.
clock, from the late residence.
The deceased has been i'll during a
number of months and has been crit
ically i'll about two months. The end
was not unexpected but the blow falls
none the less severely upon the fam
lily Of devoted children. All knew
that the fathers condition was criti-
cal and they were gathered at the
home at the time of his death The
children are Mrs. r. w. Dye, of near
Oskaloosa; f. A. Baughman, of Wash
ington; Mrs. j. NJ Ketchum, of Man
kato, Kansas, and Miss Carrie Baugh-
man, of Oskaloosa. Three grandchil-
oil =. A
Weater,of Springfield, Ill; Miss Edith
and Mr.. Lawrence Baughman, of
Washington. The wife passed away
three years ago-Dec. 5, 1900,--and
the husband will be placed at rest be-
side her in Forest cemetery. The
family has the sincerest sympathy of
many friends in their bereavement.
The deceased was one of the Oldest
Of the old time pioneer business men
of the city of Oskaloosa. He operat.
ed a lumber yard for quite a number
of years in the city and enjoyed a
large trade in the county. He was
born in Hardy county Virginia, March
13, 1926, and removed to Ohio when
a child of three years. He spent his
life here and received his education
in local institutions. He was mar
ried to Miss Mary Carpenter, of AL
eXand. -. Ohio, May 9, 1850, and they
determined to seek their fortunes in
the western country. They started
west overland, having their own wag-
on, and after twenty-one days en-
route arrived in Oskaloosa in the lat
ter part of September, 1851, and the
deceased became one of the citizens
Of the new town. 1t. is a matter of
local history that Mr.. Baughman
traded his team for the first building
of any size in the city. The house
stood on the lot now occupied by the
Herbig block, on First avenue, corner
of A street. 1t was a public building
in it's day and sheltered many ses-
sions of the early Mahaska county
court. The deceased engaged in sew
and always with success. He be- /
came a farmer ana tilen came to the
city again about 1876 to engage in the
lumber business. Disposing of this,
