swings. Nelson's left eye is entirely
closed Nelson punched Cans to the
ropes and they fought at close range.
Cans rested and saved strength at
each clinch. Nelson bled freely. AS
the men worked to centre it was a
sight to behold Cans sent Nelson
back with a left to jaw. Both are
weak and as the gong sounded Nelson
for the first time showed great weari-
ness. It was claimed that Cans had
turned his foot in this round, which is
seriously incapacattng him.
Thirty-fourth Round-The men
wrestled and stalled in centre OF ring,
both seeming content to rest. This
continued, neither landing a blow. It
was wrestle, stall, wrestle and stall.
Nelson forced Cans to the ropes and

NELSON RALLIES.
Nelson was told again to stop fight

objected to Siler against this style OF
scrapping. The men went again to the
wrestling and Nelson swung his left

feet. Then Joe stopped a powerful
left to the wind and they clnched
Both men are very careful. Cans

Considerable interest is being
aroused among theatre-goers by the
announcement Of Dolly Kempers re-
turn engagement at the Lyceum The
atre. opening Thursday, September 6.
with the usual Friday and Saturday
matinees, in Hal Reid's latest success.
"The Gypsy Girl" under the manage
ment Of William T. Keogh. who first
brought this charming and talented
young actress before the public. Her
recent engagement here in the title
role will be we'll remembered by the
patrons of this popular theatre. Mr..
Keogh has surrounded her with a spe-
cially selected cast and the scenic
equipment is in his usual extravagant
style. Mr.. Reid. it is said. has given
us one Of those tender touching stor-
les Of which his prolific pen is famous,
full Of power, passion, purity and love.
His men and women are human. They
love, breathe and pulsate with life in
characters that live. Heart touching
and romantic as his story may be. Il
is at the same time both possible and
probable, and it is all the more inter-
esting in that it is convincing. The
supporting company includes many
old favorite actors, whose names are
familiar to our theatre-goers.
A special feature will be Miss KEN
per's reception on the stage to the
LADIES and children after the Friday
and Saturday matinees, when she will
present them with her latest photo

A good opportunity will be given the
public to see the most complete horse
show ever organized when the Walter
L. Main Circus and Cummins Greater
Wild West arrives here, September IL.
over three hundred of the best types
of truly handsome horses have been
secured from all parts of the world to
make the representation complete.
This horse show is only one of many
features and specialties of the Main
Cummins Circus and Great Wild West
and Indian Congress. There will be a
gorgeous street parade on the morn
ing. of Monday, September IT, which
one cannot afford to miss.
Anyone who has not lived among the
Greeks will not be able to understand
their enthusiasm in the Olympic games
and how seriously they take them, un-
/ les they see Lyman Fl. Howe's great
reproduction, not only of the games
but the crowds in and out of the Stad-
/ ium as well.
They show all Athens en- fete. Much
of the gaiety and decorations are also
Nu' ~ tii1 NiNie VI the NNiiie anu Sueei
of England, who are shown entering
the remarkable Stadium. All the
| splendor which the most ardent ad-
mirer of athletic sports could desire
will again be produced by Mr.. Howe ir
the Opera House on September Z and
3. The spectators interest is absorbed
az once by the vastness and impress
siveness Of the Stadium. The seats
rising on each side with thousands OF
gaily dressed spectators might be
compared with the scene at a Yale
Harvard baseball game multiplied
tenfold.

which has been relief TO those who have
wood and logs to draw. Not in many
years has there been so great a quantity OF
lumber drawn to our local mills and il is
estimated that about 500 cords OF pulp
wood have been drawn to Bethel from the
west part OF the town, not to speak OF the
amount OF siXteen-inch wood that has
been drawn to Bethel and Woodstock.
All things considered, many ofour farmers
have done business this winter that will
be great benefit to them financially. To
