Dvvad Wins on Foul
 From Jacobson

The wrestling match at the Royal Hotel Theater was pulled of last night before large and enthusiastic audi ence who had occasion to cheer their fayorite on many occasions. The match was marked hy many brilliant flashes of speed y..both men. and an especial display of strength in nyvad who repeatly broke holds that looSed like the money.
 A had feature marked the close of the match which 10 the audience m some parts of the house looked like a deliberate foul. but Jacobsen declared repeatedly after the match that it was not intentional. Let that be as it may it was good bout and every one got the worth Of their money.
 The perlimenary bout between two little boys was fine exhibition oi what physical training will do for the boy. They were intrduced as the Terrible Turk of the Guardlsland Light and Joe Guss of Hot Springs and the exhibition they gave was fine and wa. well received by the audience. The Temble Turk won with a scissors and arm hold in eleven and one halt minutes. Alter this match the referee then introduced the principals in the main even and the struggle was on at a:aO n. m. Dyvad showed good from his muscle standing out like knots and his strength was marvellous Jacob son looked somewhat heavier than in the previous match and in all positions was ss quick as lash. Both men look ed trained to the minute and it 10 do the battle of their lives.
 Dyvad repeatedly broke away fiom half Nelson's. bar arm and leg locks. scissors and many other holds. and la- coi,son by his marvellous speed got out of many tight places.
 The bout was so fast that it would be impossible to record all that took place. Alter sixteen minutes Jacobson secured a bar arm high up with a leg lock and in thirty seconds secured the firts fall. Time .16.3o
 The second bout was equal to the first in speed. Dyvad by his great strength seemed to he wearing down the lighter man who it was plain was DO, so strong as in the frs tmatch. he made some brilliant tackles and showed great speed but at the end of eleven minutes and five seconds laid his shoulpers on the mat. Dyyad secured a scissors hold from which there was DO escape. Time. 1l.05.
 In the third and deciding match the pace set by both men was even faster than either of the other two and both men showed the effect of their efforts before five minutes had elapsed. Ja- col,son seemed excited or nervous on many occasions. He secured bar arm and leg lock on Dyvad repeatedly but was unable to hold him for an in- stant after securing it. At one time Dyvad picked his man up bodily and lad him down on the mat. which seemed to uunerve Jacobson and in a swift exchange in Jacobson's corner

The pleasure that we take in beauti- ful nature is essentially capricious.

 Jacobon's explanation after the match was that in attempting Ia secure what is known as the bear hold Dyvad threw his arm in such a posi- tion that it was drawn over his back instead of across the breast as was in- tended, Il was very tired and ex- cited and did not realize what l had done until it was too late'' and this is no doubt the case.
