Downes complained that he had his feet on the ropes during the second bout and that the referee. Chris Neu- bauer of the Turner's. had not just req son for calling a fall
 The claim of Downs was that he avoided being thrown by Barnes and wriggled 10 the edge Of the mat. get ting on the ropes before a fall could be obtained. Referee NeGIbauer. who was serving in the absence of George V.

Gardner and Ryan can safely be called two oi the cIeverest men in the world. as wei

George Hacken- schmidts appearance in the United States at this time has had considerat ble to do with the boom in the game of grapple The debates in the press and magazines about the relative mer- it's of jiu-jitsu and wrestling have also attracted attention. At any rate, the game seems to enjoy more popularity at the present moment than it has at any time during the last ten years. And 1t is up to the wrestling fraternity to i,bring wrestling up to higher stand ard Of. popularity even than it enjoys now. The many and clever fakes pulled of by wrestlefs in the past have de- tracted from the sport and lost to it the popular favor it at one time en- joyed. As an exhibition of science and force wrestling is exceedingly spectac- ular. There are hundreds of chances offered for skill, and no man but a very powerful one can ever become a worlds champion at this game. Near ly all countries have produced grap- piers of note, but the most picturesque grapplers come from the domain of the sultan. The Turks are a picturesque people. but in nothing do they display their quaintness more than in the
 wrestling game.
 Grapplers from the orient do not
 wrestle exactly like the western wres- tiers, but it has generally been noted
 that they are much more powerful. And how these Turks accumulate their
 wonderful force is a mystery to the
 ordinary wrestler. Usually to gain any
 amount of fame as a mat .artist in
 America requires course of careful gymnastics covering a period of years.

 son When They Meet Good Battle Tonight Toe Walcott Wants Fight.

Cp to date there has been very little betting on the battle between Britt and Nelson. The bets that have been recorded have been at evens, but as yet there is a dearth of Nelson money. The gambling interests want to see both men down to real, hard work be- fore they risk their money. IL is safe to predict, however, that Britt will en- ter the ring the favorite at about 10 to 0, or 10 to $, on account of the opinion of thousands of local enthusiasts that he is inyincible. The match promises to be the biggest betting event ever pulled off in California.
 "I beat Nelson before. l won on points and gave him good licking, declares Britt. "I will beat him again, just as sure as 1 am standing here. All this talk of me stalling off this encoun' ter is tommyrot. l know that l cannot last forever, and l wanted to get the best possible purse and the best pOssi- ble conditions before 1 bound myself to an agreement. 1 think this match Is one of the best ever offered little men. and 1 will win handily. 1 expect to know at the end that have been to the races so to speak. but l am as confident of winning as l am that 1 will make the weight. which is 13: pounds at 10 o'clock on the day of the battle. do not underestimate Nelson one iota. He is hard nut. game fighter and a worthy antagonist. I'll have my work cut out for me on Sep tember Q. l will have to fight and fight hard every inch of the way, but I'll win.''

who is the champion lady wrestler of England. We will give $500 to any girl or woman whom she cannot throw in fifteen minutes. The other five will meet any girl or woman of their re- spective weights, and we will give sloO to anyone who can go fifteen minutes without a fall.
 Next week the girls make their first American appearance in Brooklyn, but beyond that nothing is definitely arranged. hope they may meet many American lady wrestlers. There are lots of them in England"
 The wrestling maids confine their efforts to the Graeto- Roman branch of the game. All except the champion, Miss Bradford, stipulate that their ad- versaries shall weigh no more than themselves. Women who tip the beam at 2J0 pounds or whereabouts, with a penchant for wrestling, are barred. Those of normal weight, however, are welcome to try for the $500 while the band plays Throw Elm Down, Me Closkey." Maggie Cline has not been challenged.

Since Roses advent from the Pacific coast into the Univer. sity of Michigan, he has been regarded as a marvel and without a peer in weight events. The shot-put hes been his fort and in this stunt Rose had never been defeated until Coe by his marvellous put carried off the laurelS at the Portland games At the Univer- sity of Michigan, one year was enough to drench Roses ambitious spirit. Aft CT leaving Michigan the youthful giant appeared in the limelight in Tennessee. The Chicago Athletic association being in need of weight-throwers, secured hio services and he has been competing under the cherry circle colors with the greatest kind of success since that he demonstrated his great prowess against Coe by tossing the shot far beyond the vision of the Boston ath- lete, thus causing the special event, prepared especially for the two bis fellows. to closely resemble . farce, with Coe as leading clown. Roses makeup is largely on the order of that of Rube Waddell. of baseball fame. He is eccentric in the extreme and his trainers know too we'll that the most tender handling is necessary to bring ing the giant shot-putter to the height of his ability. Tn Roses defeat by Coe there is an athletic moral. which any young athlete of ability cannot afford to overlook. Rose at times will work like beaver. preparing himself for his events. but at other times shot, putting, discus and hammer throwing become loathsome and for weeks at Q time his training will be neglected, simply for the reason that he consid- CTS himself invineibIe. His work fn' the shot before the Portland meet was an example of his system of training. He would work hard al times, but with no semblance of regularity.
