The styles in catch-as-catch-can
wrestling methods as practiced in
England and America differ in this
respect, that in America only the
strangle hold is barred. The stran-
gle hold is a hold to punish man
and that is not what is wanted in
wrestling.
If wrestler cannot win without
causing excessive pain and bodily
harm to his rival, then it could not
be called wrestling. A referee
should have it within his power to
compel competitor to release a
lock which could not lead to fall
and which was merely put on to
punish an opponent.
The effect of a strange hold is
that in time it puts man into an
unconscious state. | know of no
other hold that cannot be got clear
Of The hammerlock is used to up
set an opponent and not to intlict
injury.
In my opinion the full Nelson
should be barred, also the lacing

SPOKANE GUARDIANS Of
p[A([ To TORN SOCIETY

The police department Of the
city are talking seriously of form
ing a Police Protective association
for the benefit of sick and injured
policemen. The idea, If carried out,
will mean that all the police in the
city will donate each month a GER
tain sum which will be put into
general fund so that when one of
the force becomes sick his doctor,
hospital and medicine bills will be
paid.
The dues of the proposed society
win be so cents or 81 per month
A doctor will be paid by the year,
arrangements will be made with
the hospital to care for the sick at
a certain cost for the year, the fee
to be paid whether any one is talk
en- to the hospital or not, and the
druggist to receive a certain con-
sideration for furnishing medicine
by the year.
There are abou, As police on the

TOLD TO KEEP ON GOING

Before Joe Cantillon became the
manager of the NRwaukee team in
the American association, he was
an umpire and pretty good one
too. Dan Kermin of the Louisville
Colonies says that one day Cantil-

against the Minneapolis team. Wal
ter Wilmot, who was playing cen
ter field, started to register a kick.
lie came running UP at a great
rate of speed, shaking his fist at
the umpire. Cantillon stood still
and waited until almost reached
the plate, when he said:
keep on running, Walter, you
are out of the game"

between the Indian football player
and his white brother, a Cincinnati
newspaper says of the Carlisle
team: Never has such a gentle
manly and well behaved crowd of
football players appeared in our
midst. There were 80 red men in
the bunch, but the sense of sight
was the only one that disclosed the
fact. So far as noise or disturb
ance went, there might have been
two instead of %. The managers
and employees of the hotel are una
nimous in their praise of the red

were pleased, and the bartenders
were simply astonished. One of the
latter said last night: eff that
many ordinary football players had
been in the hotel for five days I
would have had some little bust
ness with them. They would have
made themselves heard as well as
seen after that "a to 5 victory. AS

them didn't come into the billiard

who has had charge of the athletic

years, and has a wonderful influ-
ence over the red men, says that
the report of the boys behavior is
always the same.

MAD MAN
IN CITY JAIL

Raving mad and imagining that
he must disrobe at certain inter.
walls or he will die, E. r. Browr
was locked up in the city Jail last
night by Sheriff N. T. Devaney.
Brown was brought to the station
and booked as being drunk or
crazy. He was locked up and for
the entire night he raved in his
cell. He would take his clothes off
and then put them back on again
This performance was gone through
many times.
He will be taken to the county
jail and will be tried in the super
ior court on the charge of insanity.

GREENFIELD, Ind, Nov. 2S.-
To James Whitcomb Riley, the
Hoosier poet, THE Little Town O.
Tailholt," looks in its extremity.
Tailholt, after a half century of
dignified existence, rebels against
becoming mere incident on
rural free delivery route. The slo-
gan is, I'VE want back our post
office and four mails a day; and
Jim Whitcomb Riley ought to write
a letter about it to the president"
These are the words of Mrs. War
rem Rafferty,, whose mother kept
the postoffice when it was referred
to by Riley in his poem.
1t is a tragedy, this fate of which
Talbot" hamlet In this county
is confronted. 1t was founded in
1855 and had a postoffice until a
few weeks ago when it was abol-
ished. Mrs. Mary e. Mcdonald, SO,
now of Brown county, as post mis-
tress,. served the little village well
all through the war and until the
railway, the c., ii. & D., came.
Then the work was given to a man
who had a store at the station and
better facilities. The government
called the postofiice Carrollton, but
the railroad refused to accept this
name because there was already a
Carrollton on it's route, and calls it
Reedville. But to everybody in
town from the very beginning the
place was called Talbot.
Among the wise saws rolled UNI
der the tongue, 10, these many
years, by Hoosier sages at the
cross roads stores has been the AK
ION, "A tail holt isn't much of a
holt. but it's bettern no holt at
all" When DR.. Hiram Comstock
plotted his IA acres and was about
to name the town. Joe Little, the
merry auctioneer who was to sell
the lots. said that he had better
call 1t Tailholt, as the land was
perhaps better than no land at all.
1t was some decades later when
Riley introduced the town to the

World Of Sport

Wisconsin is threatening to
break athletic relations with Min
nesota on the claim that three big
games year is too severe on the
players, and for the further and
more important reason that Wis
consin thinks it was bilked in the
division of the gate receipts at the
MINES ota-Wisconsin game at Min
neapolis, Nov. 5. Wisconsin's share
was $4,000, but the claim is made
that it should have been nearer
$4,000.
After witnessing the Michigan
Wisconsin football game, Mayor
Dunno of Chicago came out strong
ly against the sport and declared
that his son, who is a student at
Michigan, should never play the
game. No one was killed or even
badly injured in the game witness
ed by Mayor Dunno.
Coach Booths football pupils at
Lincoln. Neb., are said to be on
the verge of an Instruction. 1t
is claimed the team puIposely play
ed slovenly in the game with Min

Wilson in the first half and the
bringing along of player who is
said to have shirked his training.
