has been on here for the past four days,
closed Saturday night. The attractions,
which consisted of ball games, wrestling

not as large as was expected but every
body was good natured and we'll pleased
by the manner in which the program was
arranged and carried out.

ability to come.
Three good wrestling matches were pulled
off. In the first, George Dawson of

one-half minutes and the second in one
hour and five minutes.
The match between Sldden of Edison
and Thompson of North Platte was a draw,
while the match between Thompson and

got two falls in less than twenty minutes
OF the seven ball games, the Arapahoe
| Braves won five. In every way the fair
was a success and the Arapahoe Com
mercial club is well pleased with the re-
suit.

lands was started first by Wenatchee
people who realized the possibilities
of that section as a fruit district
Within the past year great tracts of
this land have changed hands and
whole sections of the Moses Lake
district look like a Wenatchee set

people who have located there. With

have come in from the Sound, so
many, in fact, that there has been

Naples, Italy, Oct. 25.-The beau

the Gulf of Salerno and islands of
Ischia and Procida have been de-
vastated by peculiar combination
of elements. The number of victims
is estimated at $50 persons. The

appears to have been in the form of
a tornado having three centers, the
first over the island of Ischia, sec

that the entire Vesuvian region has
been devastated by lava and cinders
and that the villages located on the
slopes of the ancient volcano have
been buried by the outpourings of a
dozen craters.
The inhabitants of the villages are
described as fleeing toward Naples
for shelter and food. Many of them
are said to have received frightful
wounds from falling stones and pum-
ice.
The government today directed the
navy to send two cruisers to Naples
and gave orders for the despatch of
supplies at once to the stricken re-

No communication is TO be had

ter ten rounds of fighting. The
champion title was never in dan
ger from the start to the finish.
He certainly as jumping jack. "
commented Attell, after the fight.
And that remark tells the story of
the battle about as we'll as it can
be told.
Kilbane, except in the eighth
round, was on the retreat. Attell
continued to follow his opponent
about the ring, hoping to get near
enough to land. But the champion
usually had to get the Clevelander
in a corner before he could put in
telling punches Attell directed the
majority of his blows for the wind
but he drove home enough choppy
lefts and rights to kilbane's head
to mark the Cleveland fighter. There
was no blood drawn by either man.
At the beginning of the ninth
round Attell dropped his arms and
asked Kilbane to come in. but the
Clevelander was wary and stayed
away.
