DWYER'S LEGS MN BIC MATCH FOR HIM Charles Leonhardt Was De- feated in Fine Exhibition LAKES MANLY STAIEMENl I Says Dwysr Can Beat Him In a Mixed Match, But lie Wants Straight
 erecO-cOntest at the
 Club.
LAKES MANLY SIAIEMENl I

By the use of those powerful legs with hold around the head. Prof Mike Dwyer. wrestling instructor of the Bir- mingham Athletic club. last night de- feated Charles Leonhardt, who occupies similar position in the Atlanta Ath- letic club. In mixed wrestling match.
 It was the prettiest exhibition of clean sport ever witnessed In Birmingham. The Irishman and the Dutchman gave the and the applause was deafening when one or the other of the champions would turn an unusually clever trick.
 Leonhardt Is the chamion Greco Roman and Dwyer champion catch-as-catch-can wrestler of the country. The former is the more powerful man, but the latter is little the cleverer and quicker in his ac- tions.
 Wins FIrst Fall. Dwyer won the toss of the coin and the first fall was catch-as-catch-can, and that powerful les hold won for the Irishman In r minutes and 90 seconds. Several times 1t looked as If the superior strength of Leonhardt would be too much for the lighter man. but he held on gamely. At { one time the powerful strength of Leon hardt was shown when he picked Dwyer completely off the floor by his neck. It Is as strong as bulls.
 The second fall was Greco-Roman and 1t was Leonhardt's game, but It required 20 minutes and g seconds for him to throw Dwyer, and some of the prettiest wrestling which will ever be seen here was done in this fall, By staying for more than 20 minutes Dwyer won the right to name the last fall and he made 1t catch-as-chatch-can, which gave him a little the advantage. Leonhardt used q three-quarter Nelson. which he changed into a half Nelson.
 Dwyer Again Wins.
 The third fall was in Il minutes and Dwyer won by using that powerful leg hold again. He forced Leonhardts shoulders to the mat. although the other was game and worked under a powerful strain.
 Leonhardt made very manly statement at the end of the match. He said: T have wrestled Dwyer twice and he has defeated me flirly and squarely both times He Is my superior at the mixed match. but I challenge him for a match straight Greco Roman and I will demon- strate to you that am his superior fin that. He has me beat when 1t is mixed" | Dwyer accepted the challenge and states that he will wrestle any man the club may bring to Birmingham while he Is in the city.
 In the preliminary match. Jack Riddle and Gibson won a fall each at oatch-as- catch-can The former won the first fall in 5:20 and the latter won the second in | two minutes

BASEBALL GOSSIP

Dessau reminds one very much of Cl.risty Mathewson in his general appear ance, his arm and his delivery. Although not as large a man as the great tw.rler of the Giants, still he l. built much better. Dcssau has a 7ery long arm, something that one notices about Mathewson the minute he appears on the diamond. The delivery of both men Is very smooth and easy, both being able to put the great est amount of speed back of the hall with the least exertion and strain the arm.
 Dessau has an advantage over Mathew son. He Is an excellent runner, and has done a great deal of long distance run ming while in college. He Is also. a good hitter and the way he swings at a ball hes pleased Manager Vaughan.
 Some time ago George Leidy. who man aged the Monroe team in the Cotton States league last year said that Fred Moore would cover more ground than any shortstop or second baseman in the league. and that he vas as pretty an in- fielder as he had ever seen.
 At the time the fans and rooters were inclined to take this dope with grain of salt. although they all knew that Moore was fast and sure fielder Well. after yesterdays work they were very much inclined to think that MT. Leidy had told the truth. the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Moore certainly covers territory and for this season of the year he is very safe, Yesterday the players batting the balls to the infeld tried to put them somewhere between first and second where he could not get them, but they failed.
 That man I-afford looks better to me than anything that I have seen around the third bag in Baronvile for many a day" said an enthusiastic fan yesterday. 'l have watched every player that Blr- mingham has had for several years, and believe that he handles himself bet ter around third base than any man we have had there. not even excepting Jimmy OBrien the first year in Birmingham when he played such star ball"
 Otto Wagner worked we'll yesterday. This pitcher who is a pretty good in- fielder also has worked in the box less than one or two of the other pitchers this week. but the little work he. has done showed that he was in condition as we'll as man can he so early In the spring Somebody has got to beat this youngster for a place on the team and they have got to work hard to do It.
 Pylant seems to he stronger this year. This southpaw will probably be one of the Barons' regular staff of slahmen as his work last year was about the best of any young pitcher in the league. He pitched a number of games and won a majority of them. He and salce are the

Sir william Was Then Plain 'BilI. -
William c. Van Horne, one Of the
worlds great railroad men, began his
career as a telegraph operator in Chi
cagO. He rapidly rose to high places in
railroading, and in the early eighties
he had attained such a reputation in
the business that Lord Strathcona, the
fnancler Of the project to construct the
Canadian Pacific railway, selected the
young American as general manager
and chief Of the building operations.
He was so successful in this work and
rendered such important service to the
Dominion Of Canada In pushing the
railroad across her vast expanse to the
Pacific ocean that in 1896 Queen Victo-
ria knighted him. Pre-eminently en-
dowed with common sense and humor.
he is not the man to take his knightly
honors too seriously. Shortly after re-
ceiving his title he exclaimed to a
group Of friends:
This Sir William business is very
fine, but I'd like to hear what the boys
down in Chicago will have to say about
it. They used to call me just plain

PREY on AMERICAN MOTORISTS.
Swiss Authorities Impose Excessive Fines
Peasants stone Touring Autas.
Special Gable Despatch to The SUN.

LONDON, Aug. 26.-American motorists
complain OF the treatment they have re-
oeived in Switzerland. where bitter anti
motor craze has broken out. All OF them
report narrow escapes from injury at the
hands Of Swiss peasants men and women,
who lombard tho motorists with stones
and bottles. In one place neat Zurich
woman farmer rushed at Ger with pitch
fork and the che ufFeur received serious
wound in the arm while trying to protect
his head.
The Swiss authorities are likewise ami
mated by animosity toward the motorists,
and the American Consul dt Fern in one
week received twenty-one complaints.
Americans have been fined as high as 500
francs for excessive speed when they were
not proceeding at more than four miles IN
hour. A particularly outrageous case wes
that OF motor car which followed hay
cart for miles, when 1t was stopped and q
fine Of 900 francs imposed. As half Of tbs
fine goes to the project Of police there is
little likelihood Of this practise being
stopped.
