Wrestling.

In the twelve years that wrestling
four champions have developed, and
all of them have been defeated. The
quartet comprises Jenkins, Mcleod,
Beell and Gotch. Only two of them,
Gotch and jenkins, are really entitl-
ed to the crown, as Beell and Mcleod
scored victories which in the light of
later bouts proved that the defeats
of Gotch and Jenkins were f1ukes.
Farmer" Burns, regarded as one OF
the cleverest mat men in America,
aspired to the championship, but gave
way when his young pupil, Gotch, ad-
vanced to the front. Dan Mcleod
tried repeatedly to wrench the title
from jenkins, and finally caught big
Tom out of form and was given the
decision in Worcester. Mcleod real
ly had no meritorious claim to a con-
quest, as each man had fall and
Jenkins complained of ailment in his
leg and left the mat in a helpless
condition However, Jenkins regain
ed his crown at Buffalo few months
after, throwing the French Canadian
in two straight falls. Gotch then de-
feated Jenkins after a seesaw series
of bouts. Go5chs defeat by Beell at
/ New Orleans was a shock to wrest-
ling followers, but the big Humboldt
lad quickly retrieved himself by floor
ing his lighter opponent in two
strai ght falls in Kansas City recently.
Frank will do we'll to keep his rivals
down in future. OF course, accidents
similar to the one Gotch is said to
have received will lay the best of
them out, but wrestling students
know that Gotten at present has no
peer in America, and when he is beat
en- the affair Is bound to create sus-
picion. His defeat by Beell was il
stantly followed by cries Of 'Fake!"
Its Gotch's turn next" and other
yelps which are sure to knock the
good old winter sport down and out

THE EXILE.
By L. NJ. Montgomery

BY L. NJ. Montgomery
We told her that her far-off shore
was bleak and dour to view,
And that her sky was dull and mirk
while ours was smiling blue.
She only sighed in answer, 1T is
even as We cay,
But Oh, the ragged splendor when
the sun bursts through the
gray!"
We brought her dew-wet roses from
our fairest summer bowers,
We babe her drink their fragrance.
we heaped her lap with flow
erS.
She only said with eyes that yearned.
"Oh, if We might have brought
The pale unscented blossoms by my
fathers lowly cot"
We babe her listen to the birds that
sang so madly sweet,
The lyric of the laughing stream that
dimpled at her feet.
"But Oh" she cried, Il weary for the
music wild that stirs
When keens the mournful western
wind among my native first"
We told her she had faithful friends
and loyal hearts anear,
We prayed her take the fresher loves,
we prayed her be of cheer.
"Oh, We are kind and true" she wept,
"but wo's me for the grace
OF tenderness that shines upon my
mothers wrinkled facet"

HIT WIsCoNsIN's LAW.

Fears Effect of Court Decision in
Minnesota and North Carolina.
Gov. Davidson is concerned over the
question whether the reasoning of the
United States Supreme Court against the
validity of the Minnesota and North Caro-
lima railroad rate laws does not apply
with even greater force to the Wisconsin
law. The Minnesota law provides pen
atty of $1,000 and Imprisonment for viO-
lation of the law, and it was this penalty,
declared excessive, against which the SUI
preme Court most firmly held. The Wis
consin law, however, provides penalties as
high as $4,000.
