with Frank Gotch for the champion
ship of the world last night by defeat
ing Raoul de Rouen, the French cham

to the Turk by a decision of Referee
Dick Fleming, who disqualified De

was won by Mahmout after 90 minutes
and 81 seconds of wrestling.
The round system was used for the

Battle is Very Rough.
| The battle was the toughest Chicago
fans ever saw. The Frenchman was
loutgamed as well as outwrestled by
the Ottoman, and his knowledge of the
game was limited to a thorough ac-
quaintance with the art of swatting
his opponent or pinching him. but the
Turk was on his guard against this
sort of thing, and beat the Gallo ath-
lete at his own particular pastime.
The Frenchman's rough tactics lost
him the first fall in the fourth round
of the match after 81 minutes and G
seconds of mingled choking and fish
Icuffs. A swing to Mahmout's face re
suited in De Rouen's disqualification
by Referee Fleming.

What Naval Reserve is and Does

The Rock Island division of the Hi
nois naval reserve, just about to open
new quarters in the armory and new
boat house on the river front, is part
of an organization that has had an in
teresting history. Otto Herkert has
submitted the following timely story
of the life OF the organization:
This state should feel proud of the
kind of material it furnished the navy
during the war. The public has been
culpably forgetful of the services of
the Illinois Naval Reserve during the
campaign of 1898. 1t has passed from
, it's memory that the farming and man.

splendid manhood then to the national

ton of Chicago. Quincy, Moline and
Rock Island organizations which have
maintained a vigorous life since 1898
and which today in character of work
performed are without peers in the
