Created Much Interest.

The advertisement of the Cresco I'm
ion Savings Bank in our last issue ere
ated considerable interest and much
favorable comment.
Mr.. Tillson, the assistant cashier, in
forms us that the third day after the
proposition had been made public in
the neighborhood of fifty savings ac-
counts had been opened according to the
terms of the advertisement, and that
it looked as though the bank would be
called upon to pay out the limit OF
81, 900 before the rush ended.
We believe it is fact, regrettable
though it may be, that the children of
today are growing up without proper
appreciation of the value of money,
and the advantages that will be theirs
if they will but cultivate the habit of
saving and accumulating something to
help themselves in business way when
some good opportunity offers.
This Banks management is to be
commended for thus encouraging thrift
among the younger generation and while
1t is an expensive proposition for them,
they will doubtless be repaid both in
the way of financial returns due tc
new friends and patrons made through
the plan, and also in the sense OF
satisfaction given in the knowledge OF
good deed performed.
We hope both for the children anc
the bank, that they will be called upor
for every dollar they offer to give.

Pecoy Loses the Match.

The wrestling match last Friday
evening, while it resulted in victory
for Peterson, did not detract at all
from the popularity of the local man,
PEGGY. The first match demonstrated
that PEGGY had for an opponent
wrestler who could take care of him
self IN contest with the best of them,
and that he could hold off Peterson for
two hours and forty minutes was al
most as good as victory.
In the match of last week, PEGGY
was much more aggressive than in the
first match, and although he tried re-
peatedly to force Peterson to the mat
it was impossible for him to do so, as
Peterson had the advantage of him
both in strength and wrestling ex-
perience. During the first bout neither
man went to the mat until As minutes
had passed when PEGGY went down for
IL minutes. he was back to the mat in
8minutes. where they remained for four
minutes; he regained his feet for six
minutes and again went to the mat
until he was caught in crotch hold
and lost the fall after one hour and
twenty minutes of wrestling.
The second bout was shorter. PEGGY
went to the mat after 10 minutes of
swift and aggressive parrying by both
men. Thereafter the pace was fast
and PEGGY went to the mat twice and
was pinned after 81 minutes of wrest-
ling.
After the match Mr.. Peterson stat
ed that he was the man he represented
himself to be, that he was miner who
had wrestled ever since he was boy
and had work ed and wrestled all along
the coast and up to Alaska and that he
had lately been mining at Deadwood,
S. D. He paid Mr.. PEGGY high compli
ments as wrestler and and said that
Cresco people did not realize how gooc
a wrestler they had in PEGGY.
Before the match challenge to the
winner sent by Jahns, of Spring Val
ley, was read by Referee Hall, which
was accepted by both Peterson AMI
PEGGY, and as result match is being
arranged for some date in the nea
future between Peterson and Jahns t,
take place at Rochester, MINI.
