ANDERSON WINS
WRESTLING MATCH
Worlds Champion Defeats
Joe Turner for Title.

Sam Anderson. middle-weight champion
of the world, defeated Joe Turner. the
weil-known Washington grappler, last
night at the Gayety Theater with a toe
lock in one of the fastest bouts ever held
in the District
Turner was the aggressor throughout
and had the worlds champion in some
tight places, but Anderson's superior
knowledge of the game saved him from
defeat Turner showed an unusual amount
of nerve when he refused TO yield to the
toe hold OF Anderson in the final bout.
This hold won the worlds championship
for Anderson, and had il not been for
the quICkneSS of Pat OConnor, who
refereed the match Turner would now
probably have a broken leg.
Anderson won the first fail after thirty
minutes of hard fast wrestling with a
flying fall. The second was won by Tur-
ncr in eighteen minutes with a half
Nelson and scissors hold. This bout was
the fastest of TIE three. as Turner kept
the champion on the jump throughout.
The third bout had been in progress
nine minutes when Anderson secured his
famous toe lock. Turner withStOOd the
pressure until his features were distorted.
when Referee OConnor was urged by
Frye King, Turner's manager, to award
the match to--AnderSOn. This he did
and as sOOr as the crowd realized the
match was over a great shout went up.

On a beautiful Saturday afternoon,
four weeks ago, the writer started for
a twenty-mile drive into the country,
from one of the hundred or more new
towns that have been well started dur
Ing the past spring, in the Province of
saskatchewan, in Western Canada.
Mile after mile. and mile after mile,
was traversed through what was one
continuous wheat field, the only relief
to the scene being the roadways that
led back into other settlements,
where would have been repeated the
same great vista of wheat.
What wealth! Here were hun
dreds and thousands, and millions of
bushels of what was declared to be a
quality of grain equal to any that has
ever been grown in the province. AS
we drove on and on thought of those
fellows down on the Board of Trade
at Chicago, St. Louis, Minneapolis
and Duluth. While they were exploit
Ing each others energies the farmer
OF Saskatchewan, Alberta and Mani
toba was contemplating how much he
would realize out of his crop, now
past any danger Of accident, over
what his anticipations were two
months ago. One man said to me:
The profits of that field of wheat will
give me sufficient money to purchase
800 acres of Land, for which the rail-
way company is asking $4,000, and
pay it in cash." Another, with a field
of f1ax-it was only 500 acres-said

opment. At the very beginning of our study
OF Copan We find ourselves confronted with a
grave difficulty, namely, the entire absence OF
aboriginal tradition concerning the place.
which consequently renders reconstruction
OF the historical background impossible. In
Yucatan We were able to piece together some
what Of the early history Of the principal Cities
such as Chichen liza. and Uxmal. from the &C
count Of native well Spanish writer's,
many Of whom derived their information from
those we'll acquainted with the former history
Of the country. And while this information Is
often quite fragmentary, nevertheless 1t sheds
very considerable light on the pre-Columbian
history Of these two northern sites, and in
measure. at least, dispes that darkness and
obscurlty which completely enshrouds al
most all the other great centers Of the Maya
culture.
Concerning the former history Of Copen
however. know absolutely nothing, except
ing the tradition Of very doubtful value given
below. IN 1867. or thereabout, Diego Garcia
de Palacio, an official Of the Audencia Of Qua
temala visited these ruins and later described
them in a letter to Philip H.. the then king of
Spain. In this communication, after de-
sc1iption OF the different buildings he says he
endeavored to ascertain who the former In

is more tnan one which possess. They say
that In ancient times there came from Yucca
tan great lord, who built these ediflces. but
that at the end of some years he returned to
his native country, leaving them entirely de-
serted
Unfortunately, the reliability of this tradi-
ton is disproved by too many different lines
of evidence to permit our accepting It, In the
first place. the structures of Copan are far too
numerous and massive to have been built
within the span Of single life; and its elab-
orately sculptured monuments are far too in
tricate to have been carved in one generation
