Ten minutes after the first fail
Hackenschmidt came out again and
faced Gotch. Every one was sorry for
him. But also every one was dlssatis-
fed with the show. The crowd had
come to see one thing and 1t was de-
termined to see it. 1t watched Gotch
indifferently when he went at Hack
like a hungry wolf. 1t yawned while
Hack protected his prosecuted legs
with desperate earnestness. But when
Gotch slammed his man down and be-

900 savages joined In the pursuit with
frantic cries. Three times the toes
lodged the inevitable. Then Gotch's ali

muscles frightened. Hack" gave such
a writhe as an early Christian martyr
might have given when the rack be-
a to creak. Then Gotch loosed the
toes and Hack" fell back to his
shoulders.
1t was all over-but the interminable
discussion as to whether the toe hold
is more kindly and delicate In it's ap-
plication than the strange hold, the
eye gouge or the various varieties OF
mayhem which prevailed before the
Christian era. All those who won
money on Gotch declare that the toe
hold is a perfectly lovely institution

Hackenschmidt, of Russia, who

nonpareil in the sporting notes.
1t was a beautiful day and Mr..
Comiskey's huge concrete in
closure was soiidly lined with
eager faces from the United
States, Europe, Turkey, Austria

preliminaries in which small men
wove themselves into hopeless
knots and big Joe Rogers,

hauled at each other like two

but when one first became aware
of the presence of $4,000 people
in the immediate vicinity was
when Mr.. Gotch came out in a
blue dressing gown and climbed
into the ring.
Ten Acre Cheer.
At this point a cheer arose. Man.
ayers of national political conventions
might do we'll to examine this cheer
and get pointers for the future. 1t was
a 10 acre, three story cheer, full Of
frantic hopes and deciduous patriot
ism and joyous red, white and blue
blooded anticipation Of trouble to come.
Then Hackenschmidt came out and
the crowd cheered him too, with a stem
tOrian whOOp. Hack" was q stranger
in a strange land, and it was only fair
that he be cheered before being ham,
burgered. SO everyone yelled for him
and yelled for Gotch to dessicate him
for the honor of his country.

of which would hav mussed up a

been Hacks part of the show. But
the Russian Lion was strangely accom-

browsing, the heaving, the rending and
the devouring. Active labor did not
seem to interest him. Rest and reflec-
