an Hour.

Joe Grant, the local wrestler. and cham
pion weIterweight of the. south, dfeated
Harvey Parker, champion of the world
last night at the Washington Light Infan-
try Armory by putting the Brockton boys
shoulders to the mat twice within an
hour. The first fall was gained In %
minutes and 80 seconds, and the second In
81 minutes and Is seconds. The bout was
witnessed by large crowd of enthusiastic
spectators, who rooted" hard for the local
boy. Parker showed by HIS work last night
that he has gone back. Several times he
had Grant in bad, position. but he man
aged to break the holds. Grant had to
rely on but one hold, that was successfully
used. This was the half-Nelson and scfs-
sors hold, with which he won both falls
All OF the other holds used by Grant were
OF no use, as Parker succeeded In breaking
them. Both bouts were SO similar that
there was some comment as to there being
a fake" but 1t was a case OF youth
against old age, as Parker has been In the
wrestling game for some years, and Is now
forty-One years old.
Preceding the main bout there were sew
eral preliminaries. The first was between
Joe Young and Charles Emmett, both of
the Turner Athletic Club. Young won
both falls, the first in minutes and 10
seconds, and the second In minutes and
10 seconds. The second bout, between
Bruce Neal and Carl Locke, was declared
draw. as neither gained fall within a
half-hour limit. Charles Scissors OF Rock

Turf and Track Notes.

The Duke of PortIand's famous Derby
winner. Donovan, by Galopin, and, barring
Isinglass, winner of more money on the
turf than any racer in England, recently
met his death by running into a tree
while under the influence of n fit. The
horse was insured for $4,000, and when
his owner was apprised of the character
of his injuries he wired at once to put an
end to the animal without waiting for the
insurance company to examine him. The
best horse sired by Donovan was Nelas-
queZ.

Boston

Payne Whitney of New York was defeat
ed Yesterday by III. Scott of Boston in the
last of the preliminary rounds for the nation
al amateur racquet championship of America,
on the New 9ork Racquet and Tennis Club
court. Whitney handily won the first two
games, but had exerted himself to such an
extent that he had little endurance left.
In each Of the succeeding three matches
his play was weaker and slower than in
the one preceding, giving Scott the oppor-
tunity to qualify for the semi-inals.
George Clarke of the New York Racquet
and Tennis Club had rather an easy time
with his clubmate, c. Il. Sards.

kema Club and Library for the purpose of
organizing base ball club to represent Ia
iona during the season of 1905 Nearly all
of the members of last years team were
present. Mr.. A. A. Jarvis, who acted as
chairman, opened the meeting with a few
appropriate remarks in which he dwelt
briefly upon the success of the team in 1904
and predicted an even greater success for it
in 1908. He then spoke of the advantages
CT early organization. At the conclusion of
Mr. Jarvis remarks the business of the
evening was Immediately entered upon.

The members of the Takoma Base Ball
Club are very enthusiastic over the outlook
for the coming season. Last year the team
won the championship of Montgomery coun-
ty, Nd, and defeated many of the strong
teams of the District, losing in all but four
games during the entire season. This sea-
son they will again compete for the cham
pionship of Montgomery county, and wish
also to arrange games with the very strong
est teams of the District. With this object
in view the club will expend great deal OF
money in fixing up their grounds at Tako-
ma, where they hope to play most of their
games, as these grounds are very conven-
lent for teams from the District and are
better than most of TIE grounds to be found
in the District.
The Takoma club VIII probably be COM
posed of about the same men as last year s
team. Following is list of those who Will
make up the team: A. A. Jarvis, r. King,

gestions for New Club Title.

Before leaving for New York yesterday

having been received. A favorite sugges-
ton has been to call the club the 'Diplo-
mats many arguments for this name hav-
ing been received Another often repeated
name has been the Climbers" One writer
who urges this name says: ''Inasmuch
our base ball club is now under local
supervision and ownership, it is reasonable
to expect that local pride and support will
be the means of lifting it out of the rut that
it has filled for so many years. The club
now occupies the bottom round of the lad
der of success and, it is mighty hard

the players by christening them "Thc

A good many suggestions keep the name
attached in some way to the capitol thus
the suggestion that the club be called Rep

suggestion on the same line has been Lob

gestion is that the club be called "Japs;' an
urger of this name says, Can you beat
the Japs? AS a name for the ball club
think it ideal: they are hustlers and are
never known to quit
One enthusiast who wants the club called
'Columbians,' furnished an acrostic argu-
Inent for the name follows:
