Frank Gotch to Go on Stage
for Wedding Tour After
Marriage Jan. II.
TO MEET ALL COMERS
Chicago Promoter Succeeds in Win
ming Over Champion and His
Prospective Bride.

Chicago. Jan. frank Gotch is
about TO come back. AS frequently
stated on this sporting page. even in
the teeth of the champions frequent
assertions that he had retired. the
Iowa farmer is going to defend his
title at least in one more big match.
1t was all settled and agreed at
Humboldt yesterday. but not until al
ter the consent of Gotch's hride-tobe
had been obtained. The big fellow is
TO be married next week and his we'd
ding tour will net him thousands Of
dollars, because he is going over the
burlesque circuit and meet all corners.
1t was l. H. Herk. the main works in
the Empire Athletic club and manager
of the Empire theatre, who prevailed
upon the champion to take one more
whirl at the game which has made
him both fame and fortune
DID NOT GIVE UP TITLE.
AS soon as the report came from
Omaha of the job put up by Farmer
Burns. in which Gotch was said TO
have relinQuished his title TO Yussif
Mahmout, Herk boarded a train for
Humboldt. Iowa. where Gotch is now
making preparations for his wedding.
Gotch denied emphatically that he had
turned over his title to any one, and
said he only had retired because he
had promised the future Mrs. Gotch
that he would give up the mat game.
The persuasive Herk talked the young
woman oyer, and she gave her consent
CHI
Gotch on the tour which was proposed.
OPENS AT CHICAGO.
Gotch and his bride will be in Chi
cago next week, and a week from Sun
day night he will start his theatrical
engagements with his appearance at
the Empire. He will remain at that
show house for a week, meeting ali
corners who may wish to have a hold
with the champion. He will then go
on the road and be kept busy until he
has TO start in at real hard training for
match which will be pulled off prob
ably in April
WILL MEET HACK.
AS yet no definite plans have been
made for a championship bout The
chances. however. are that George
Hackenschmidt will be selected as the
opponent of Gotch. The wrestling fans
have seen Gotch throw both Mahmout
and Zbyszko with the greatest ease,
but such was not the case with the
| Russian Lion" Hack worried the
Iowan more than any man he has ever
met on the mat. While il is true that
Gotch won and got the title, it was not
satisfactory contest in many ways
and those who witnessed the bout be-
tween the two want to see them come
together and settle decisively which is
the better wrestler.

Due Precautions

In town in Georgia there was an
old preacher whose knowledge of the
world was not wide nor deep, but who
conceived 1t to be place where, II
one should trust his fellow men, he
should at the same time keep an eye
on his own interests.
One hot day he pulled OFF his coat
and preached vigorous sermon, I'M
der the pines, in his shirt sleeves. At
the close of the open-air service one
of his admirers approached him and
said, regretfully:
IT don't suppose that you knew that
the editor of one of the big New York
Sunday papers was here when you
pulled off your coat"
IT reckon I knew 1t well, for I'd
been told of it," said the preacher,
calmly. 81 don't believe he's as bad
as he might be, and anyway, put my
coat on the chair close by and had 1t
right under my eye all the time
