The wrestling match at the city
hall last Friday night betwe NJ
Farmer" Telschow and Ben Haas of
Princeton was fiZZle. After eight
minutes of wrestling, during which
the Princetonian had all the better of
it, Telschow called time, claiming to
have broken a rib and retired from
the arena. There was a good sized
crowd present and many of them
think it was case of ''cold feet' on
Telschow's part. To give the crowd
it's moneys worth Haas and brother
of his gave two bouts of exhibition
wrestling which was the finest thing
ever seen here in the mat line. Both
are exceedingly clever wrestlers.

Friday afternoon, while Otto Ahl-
son, farmer living near the head of
Sauk Lake, was returning home from

The man took to his heels and was

tell you to go to Kuschner's for one
of his collars.

paper is the Vicksburg Daily Citizen
of July 2, 1863. This issue is five

wall paper. 1t contains what war
news was available, and that was
was pretty scarce, owing to the in
vestment of Vicksburg. In one|
column is a paragraph referring to
Grants statement that he would eat
his Fourth of July dinner in Vicks-
burg, saying that before the rabbit is |
eaten it must be caught. An extra |

caught, for Grant had entered the |
