Comrade Baker says was composed of

there was put on board a steamer for

battle, when Forrest arrived, Col. Hicks
ordered all of the troops inside the fort.
Our Colonel refused. and asked permis-

feel the rebel strength. but Hicks made
him go inside of the fort, which was
already overcrowded In a short time
there was white flag raised, and Hicks
sent out to see what was wanted. He
was given an hours time to surrender

The second day of the meet will be

Mat Matsuda, the local Japanese
grappler, leaves tomorrow night
with his manager and several back
ers for Portland, where he meets
Eddie O'Connell, who claims the
welterweight championship of the
world at 145 pounds. The men
meet at JAP pounds on Thursday
night for a $1,000 side bet.
Matsuda has been training con-
sistently the past few weeks for
the match with the Portlander, and
expects to bring home the bacon.
The Jap weighs under 142 pounds
at the present time and will enter
the ring at his best.
O'Connell, on the other hand, is
having much trouble making the re-
quired weight, reports from Port
land several days ago indicating
that he will be compelled to sweat
out several pounds of superfluous
flesh a few hours before the match.

HANDBALL TITLE
SETTLED TONIGHT

Cohn and Powell will attempt to
wrest the handball championship
of the S. A. A. G. from Bigelow and
Edge tonight. The only game of
the season between these clever
teams was brought to an abrupt end
when Cohn broke his ankle. The
teams were playing evenly up to
that time.
Bigelow and Edge went through
the tournament without a defeat,
their last victory being over Par
sons and Single. Had they shown
any disposition to claim the title
and silver cup they might have
done so, as technically Powell and
Cohn forfeited the game when Cohn
was forced to quit.
