A WRESTLING BOUT.

The Colonial Theatre last night wa.
well filed with a crowd, composed
entirely of men. who came to see
the twenty. FIVE round 60 between
Young Carbeno of kentucky, and
George Yoekel. of PASADENA, Md.
The principal event of the eveniu
was that bout, which was, however,
cut short in the sixth round when
following n right and left hook to his
jaw, the local man went down and
took the count Many of the crowd
vented their disappointment with cries
Of fake aud ''laydown, " but those
who were closest to the ring claim
that the Kentcuky lads stiff punches
were the real thing and that Yoekel
was sent to dreamland without any
will or volition of his own.
Prior to. the start of the bout,
Yoekel addressed the audience and
announced that he had met CarbenC
in Tennessee last year when the match
should have been awarded to him, but
was called a draw He then an
nounced his intention of winning the
event then to open. The men played
tag for the first half of the first round
until Carbeno smashed a right ia
Georges 5 eye. From this on the round
was miXup of the slugging match
style 1t was rather Yoekel's round
than otherwise. and the Ken tn cky
boy was called a dead one.
The second and third rounds went
about the same, and in the fourth
Carbeno cane up taking grogginess,
which, apparently fooled his opponent
until the Oovington boy smashed a
couple of body blows, hooked one to
nhs -
scratch From this on Carbeno did
the forcing, putting it all over his
antagonist, finally driving him to his
corner, where the two hooks first
left and then right apparently did the
biz. Carbeno, during the fourth tool
the count three times, but appeared
not really TO need the rest so much as
wind.
The opening bout was TO have been
| for 10 rounds between Kid jackson
and Young Harris, two local colored
celebrities, who, when not in the
squared ring, pass plates at the Naval
Academy mess hall and carry hods on
off days. Harris had the better of il
in weight. but after mixing things
for couple of rounds he fuzzled out
and after a light punch on the chin
he laid down and took the count tC
get out of more punishment. This
event was what the advance agent of 9
big show would call Scream
and was apparently enjoyed more thar
the chief bout of the exhibition.
The best event of the show was the
wrestling match between Young ShaC
Link, of Baltimore, and PHILIP
Mitchell, a local boy. The youth
from Annapolis looked green and rath
er shy of his man at the art, but had
no difficulty in sending him to the
mat twice inside of three minutes.
Another event was hugging, spar.

more colored walters calling them.
selves respectively Sharp and Trembly.
The latter won the decision at the enc
of the fourth round, when the event
was stopped by the police, as neither
of the contestants was considered in
fit condition to carry on the strenuous
war
