known on that blissful honeward
journey. There was no resentment
In her manner as she greeted him,
and the hopelessness of his doom was
all the more apparent as he read the
affection in her lovely eyes.
His day of reckoning had arrived.
The punishment-tbe real punishment
of his crime-was at hand In the
complete remuneration of all earthly
happiness he was about to make.
When the soft, white hand he held
a moment dropped again upon the
filmy gown, he began his recital.
There were no extenuating circum-

Something of the old fire that

glowed In his, and the look Of patient

one of dauntless daring. But still the

WRESTLERS
IN INTERCITY MEET
Professor Joyce Arranging to Match Washington Talent
Against Baltimore in January-Williams to
Grapple With Turner Tomorrow.
By THOMAS S. RICE.

Amateur wrestling has been growing
I'm public favor so rapidly, and Wash
ington has turned out so many good
men that Prof. Maurice Joyce. Of
Georgetown University and Carroll IN
stitute. is arranging for a big tourna-
ment IN January.
The meeting will be open to all
Corners. according to present plans, but
It will be particularly an iutercity duel
with Baltimore. Elimination contests
will be held in both cities a week OF so
before the tournament, and the winners
in each class will be matched in the
finals to be held here. Several meets
along this line have been held in the
past. and have had a marked effect in
booming wrestling, both as an exercise
and as an exhibition.
Amateur Bouts Worth Seeing.
Washington IS one of the best boxing
and wrestling centers I'm the country,
and would gladly support professional
graphing were II not for the crooked
ness which has crept into it and caused
cloud Of suspicion to be cast over
90 per cent Of the bouts. In lieu of the
professionals, there is no reason why
the amateurs should not provide the
sport. Amateur matches are faster
than those provided by the pros, and
contain much more action.
At Georgetown Prof. Joyce has
among his aspiring mat men Vlyman,
Sitterding, Wymard, and Kerwin, Of the
football team. all husky citizens. who
have shown considerable ability in the
gentle art Of getting a nelson. At Car
roll Institute he has a large class, in
GLIDING Kane, Connolly, and Foley.
Much Talent Here.
BESIDES the wrestlers directly in
charge OF Prof. Joyce, there are many
others in washington. The District
militia has a long array Of such talent
and gives a meet every season. Bones"
Foley has been coaching wrestlers ct
the Memorial Athletic Club for some
years with excellent results and is stu

Beckett has developed "A whole line OF
champions at the Y NJ. c. A. and holds
one or two meets every winter.

and Lord Lonsdale. father of the move
