j @ Lane Seriously Hurt.

II is reported that Mr.. J. c.
Lane, while hauling hay out at
his farm about s miles east of
Rich Hill last Saturday, was
thrown from the load, and in
some manner had his body about
the breast so badly bruised that
the ribs OF one side were torn
from the breast bone and his
head so badly hurt that for some
time he was entirely unconscious.
Mr.. Lane is over 75 years Of age
and while he is quite a robust
man for his age, still his age is
greatly against him and grave
doubts are felt about his recov'
cry. At last reports, however,
he was resting as easy as could
be expected.

SPOKANE WINS
BIG MEET

Spokane beat Multnomah last
night at the S. A. A. G. boxing and
wrestling tournament before the
greatest crowd that ever witnessed
similar event in this city. Johnny
Parsons, the lean kid, again DEM
onstrated his superiority over
Omar Dragna, the Multnomah
crack, by earning a decision on
points at the end of 3 rounds. 1t
was a clever exhibition, Dragna
showing more form than in the last
meeting.
Ed Johnson, the heavyweight
Multnomah wrestler, displayed a
degree of brutality in his match
with Frank Kann that lost him the
match and should disqualify him
from further participation in any
thing but a rough house. He took
a strange hold on Kann and re-
fused to let go, although the Spo-
kane boy was being deliberately
choked into helplessness. Johnson
hung on when Referee Rusk order
ed him to let go, and Cisco BULL
want, club wrestling instructor,
jumped in and jerked Johnson
loose. The latter started after
Bullivant, but the seconds got into
the ring and prevented any further
trouble. Kann was given the
medal. Multnomah will protest on
the ground that the hold was not
