 There was a wreck of the freight train, near the Brick Fac tory, the first of last week, and as a consequence the passenger train failed to get through, and lay over at Dermott.

Perhaps the railroad people will improve their track some of these days.

WAYS OF wREsThERa.

Ancient wrestlers we're permitted to
rub their hands on the sand in the
arena, but wrestlers of to-day are de-
barred from using resin, drug or any
preparation to increase the tenacity
Of their hold.
In Gsecian and Roman wrestling
bouts the bodies and limbs of the
wrestlers were plentifully anointed
with oil and grease. The object OF
this was to prevent hold being Sc
cured By an opponent. Modern afti-
cles Of agreement, however state OK
plicitly that no oil or grease shall be
USED
Ancient Greeks and Romans wres-
tied either in a state of complete mud
ity. or with a strip of cloth around
their Toins. Modern wrestlers wear
skin tights on their iower limbs, with
arms aud torso bare. In Turkey, how
ever. leather drawers are the rule. am
the grip may be put upon them. Ii
Switzerland the drawers or the bel
may be grasped in order to secure I
hold.
