points down and declared the victory.
although Two Feathers afterwards
claimed his shoulder was UP.
two clean. honest wrestlers and free
from the fouling, roughhouse and
dirty work which characterizes so
many wrestling bouts which are not
hipprodromes.
The original terms Of the match
were that Two Feathers would throw
Mcmillan three times within an hour.
The handicap was given because of
the youth and strength Of the Indian
an dtaking also into consideration
that McMllan Is a man we'll past 40.
But before the men went on a new
agreement was signed by which the
winner of the match was to take all
of the go per cent Of the house. This
went far to making the match worth
winning.
Of the other bouts they were most
ly fact and good. Court Donaldson
declared himself sick after he and
Carl Redhead had each secured fall
in the amateur feather contest and
the third bout was called off.
The Harrington men went up
against it when they brought over
George Dobson, weighing 1873 pounds,
to so against Joe Heinrich, a plain
weller. The match was not as inter-
esting as the others owing to Helm
rich's weight making it impossible
for Dobson to handle him. AS it
was Dobson was thrown clear of the
mat once an dplowed up the hard
boards of the stage with the right
side of his face, spelling completely
what little beauty he laid claims to.
Heinrich won two straight falls.
Clever Jack O'Neill had some fun
himself and made fun for the audi
ence plucky, red haired Jack Schwartz
of Harrington. Schwartz had the
weight an dthe muscle but the old
Montana champion played with the
big fellow in a fashion which gave
Schwartz an opportunity to show his
strength and gameness, but not his
skill.
At that Schwartz got the decision
in the second bout which fall hap
pened to be a roll in which ONeill
was bridging as the referee called,
but which was a popular decision. In
the third bout O'Neill played around
and showed his splendid leg work
an dscience in all the difficult posi-
tions, taking chances with his power
full antagonist that only the most
skilful wrestlers dare take Then
when he got ready the Montana man
ended a II minute bout by using a
hammer lock to slice away the Har-
rington boys pretensions.
Dispatches from Frisco say Britt
and Nelson are on the streets looking
but little the worse for the battle.
Britt has a light cut to the fore
head and Nelson has a cut over the
left eye an da swollen ear Nelson is
still declaring the referees decis ion
| was wrong an dis finding plenty of
supporters to the claim that Britt
was given a shade the best of it.
Britt's share of the $4,000 house
was s11,55O and Nelson got $500.
Kid Scaler Is back in town and
offers to meet Louie Long again at
| 1875 pounds. At this weight Scaler
believes he could do things to Louie
but Louie making 126 would be a
sight.
mScaler is also asking a match with
Kid Oglesby.
Kid Fredericks got the decision
| over Louie Long in 20 round go at
| Havre, Mont, night before last. That
boy Fredericks is always of the un-
known quantity proposition.
