"THE GOLDEN BUTTERFLY"
Much Interest Manifested in Coming
OF Grace Van Studdiford.

THE Golden Butterfly" being pro-
duced by Grace Van Studdiford, the
famous prima donna, and her company,
is highly praised by critics. The fol-
lowing reference to the company from
the St Joseph (Mo) Gazette, is one of
many favorable criticisms that The
company has received:
There is distinct difference be-
tween musical comedy and genuine
comic opera. The Tootle season has
furnished a plethora of musical comedy
and alleged musical comedy but there
have been few real comic operas here
during the season. Quite the most
pretentious offering i'm the comic opera
line of the season was THE Golden
Butterfly" by Grace Van Studdiford
and company last night.
"St. Joseph knew little of The Gold
en- Butterfly but the announcement
that Grace Van Studdiford would head
the producing company here was suff-
cient to bring out one Of the largest
audiences seen in the Tootle this win
ter and one of the most generally
pleased.
The opera is like all comic opera,
in that it puts plot and dramatic action
into the background TO give way TO
music but this is by no means a grie-
vous fault and there is more of real
dramatic situation in The Golden But
terfly than the music lover may have
been looking for.

BEFMAN AND EANGAS DRAW:
WRFSTlf NEARLY 3 HOURS
Finn on Defensive Most Of Time
in Match at Palestra Sat-
urday Night.
EXHIBITION A CLEVER ONE

Owing To an injury to one of Matt
Kangas' arms early i'm his match with
Pearl r. Beeman Saturday night 1T
the Palestra. Beeman was enabled To
take the aggressive for fully three
quarters of the two hours and so min
utes the men were wrestling in the
catch as -catch-can style, without a
single fall being obtained. The match
was stopped by the police at mid
night. and the referee was forced TO
call IT a draw.
The match was TO have been decld-
ed by two falls. Joe Ziehr ohiciated
as referee, and did good work. There
were about 500 presen. and, tho
match was declared one of the finest
exhibitions ever witnessed i'm Calumet.
During the contest. Beeman tried
every known hold but the scissors.
Twice he picked Kangas up by the
legs, getting him i'm dangerous posi-
tons. but failed TO pin the big Finn
TO the mat Kangas bridged beauti-
fully on the first occasion and saved
himself.
Kangas continually broke holds that
Beeman obtained, mainly by his re-
markable strength. He had not the
agility nor the science Of Beeman, and
had he been n little lighter, there Is
no question what the result would
have been. on one occasion. just be-
fore the bout was stopped, Beeman
a, gta
Seemingly, Beeman might as well
have tried to turn an elephant over
as Kangas. The latter's great strength
was always in evidence, and he in
wardly laughed at the Great Falls
mans attempts to pin his shoulders
to the mat.
Kangas succeeded in getting a half
Nelson once on Beeman, but the lat
ter was not in danger of being thrown,
wrggling out of the hold very clever
ly. Another time when Kangas got a
dangerous body and arm hold, Bee
man saved himself by some fine head
work. Beeman got Kangas in tight
holes on two occasions, and almost put
his shoulders to the mat The Finn,
however, by supreme effort saved him.
self from losing the decision.
Previous to the main bout a pre-
liminary was staged by two members
OF the Ponninstus club, and this prov
ed very interesting. Both were light
weights, and they gave clever exhibit
tons of holds and how to break them
1t is quite likely that Beeman and
Kangas will be matched again in the
near future. Beeman was the fresher
of the two men at the close of the
contest. He stated later in his dress
ing room that Kangas is the strongest
man, with the exception of Gotch, that
he has ever met. Some idea of the
relative ability and strength Of Bee
man and Lehto may be gained. when
it is recalled that Lehto threw Kangas
twice i'm Fl minutes about a month
ago. This would seem to indicate
that Beeman would have a small
chance with Lehto should he ever be
matched with the copper country
champion.
