THE WRESTLING MArcH-Tbe

wrestling match at the Grand theater
last night was something of a disap-
pointment in several ways though it
was a good exhibition of physical
strength. The decision was first rem
dered in favor Of Lightning Chris and
later there was a reversal for reasons
given, so there was practically no de-
cision.. The reason was that in the
beginning there was an understanding
that the match would not be held I'M
der the regular rules of the game as
Bob Irving. the other contestant was
not familiar with the rules and might
Internationally make fowl that
would put him out Of it. Chris vas
given the decision first on just such
a ruling and the reversal was made
when the facts were insisted upon that
the rules of technical nature were
not To be observed. 1t might be said
therefore that neither man could claim
victory. The work of both was
quite awkward, though both are big,
powerful men and both did their best
to give an honest test of strength. skill
and endurance. The show started late
and the attendance was small on ac-
count of the weather.

Fear is expressed by persons living

BAD SORE FROM OLD
WOUND.

I want to recommend S. S. s.
to any who are in need of a
blood purifier, and especially as
a remedy for sores and obstinate
ulcers. In 1887 1 had my leg
badly cut on the sharp edge OF
a barrel, and having on a blue
wooden stocking, the place was
badly poisoned from the dye.
A great sore formed and for
years no one knows what 1 suf-
tered with the place. I tried,
it seemed to me, everything 1
had ever heard of but / got no
relief, and 1 thought 1 would
have to go through life with an
angry, discharging sore on my
leg. At last I began the use of
S. S. s., and it was but a short
time until I saw that the place
was improving. 1 continued it
until it removed all the poison
from my blood and made a COM
plete and permanent cure of the
sore. JNO. ELLIS.

A wHITE.poMED SYMBOL.

The city of Baltimore is going to
make the dome of it's new city hall as
pure as snow. and while other cities
have their golden domes shining be-
meath the sun, this great and growing
city so near to Washington and its
capitol, proposes to make its most
most striking architectural structure
pure white as a message and token to
the people. With reference to this the
Baltimore American says:
1T is no embarrassing job, let us be-
the past week or so, and which has
transformed the topping Of the munich
pal capitol from its smudged status to
one of celestial wilderness. Is there
any who would call to mind the say
ing about 'whited sepulchres' as to the
outside and 'ravening wolves as to
the inside? Be the thought dismissed.
Let us rather believe that the whiting
of the dome is message and token
to all who behold not that the sins
of various commission beneath the
dome are to be concealed with an out
err covering. Something different. Let
us live in the faith that there is to
be an inner publication that will go
to the bone"
The American believes in a we'll
founded, hope instead of base suspi-
cions and If the symbol serves to
make corrupt practice acts unneces-
sary and men in public life better, all
cities should adopt it.

e50TH ANNIVERSARY JUBILEE
BOOK.

The 250th Anniversary Jubilee book
to be printed by The Bulletin will be
Illustrated much more extensively
than the Jubilee book of 1859 and be
in every way as desirable a book to
own. The facilities for making such
a memorial volume are greater now
than they were so years ago. and at
the same cost very much superior
volume can. be produced. The 25Oth
Jubilee book will have reports of the
fun programme and reports of.the SER
mons and addresses with such other
matter as may be of interest. There
will be series Of old pictures of
Norwich which will really make this
the most valuable book ever printed
about Norwich, with the exception Of
Miss Perkins "Antient Homes Of Old
Norwich" which is one of the most
interesting and readable local histories
ever issued in New England.
Subscribers for the book should
designate upon the coupon which may
be clipped from the advertisement
how many books they should like, and
the style of binding. The old Jubilee
books of 1859 were in quick demand
and at IS volume. and this book fifty
years from now is likely to be equally
valuable.
We intend to print the names Of
officers Of civic societies and military
companies and to make fuller certain
details of the parade.
