AFTER DIVORCE WIFE
 ACQUI1S HARRINGTON
Statement Says He Was Not lnten-
 tionalIy Unkind to Her.

indianapolis, ind, Nov. 23.-A de- cree of absolute divorce today was granted in the Superior Court of this county to Mrs. Louisa Fletcher Tark~ ington, wife of Booth Tarkington, novelist and playwright. Mrs. Tark- ngton had not asked for alimony.
 Tn her complaint she had alleged tht the defendant treated her with cruelty and that they had lived apart for the last several months. MT. Tarkington did not enter resistance to the suit.
 Mrs. Tarkington made public through her attorneys the following signed statement:
 Tn justice to both of us, will say that l fully acquit MT. Parking ton of any intention l unkindness to me. The differences between us are of temperament and habit and after nine years of effort it is apparent to both of us teat we cannot reconcile our views of life. The fact that we 
 ?. have not been able to come to the same viewpoint does not mesn that ait.d r of us approves of divorce for any light reason
 Mrs. Tarkington is the daughter of tie late Sloughton J. Fletcher, bank CT and capitalist of this city.
 In it's decree the court said the matter of compensation to Mrs Tark- ington had been satisfactorily arrang- ed in a private agreement. The cus-. tody of Mr. and Mrs. Tarkington's 5- year-old daughter, is given to Mrs., Tarkington, but Ar. Harrington is l,ermitted to have the child for one month each yesr and at such times as the court may approve after aT- l,lieation las been made to it.'

 Richmond, Va, Nov 23.-The ad- vocates of federal appropriations for highway improvement carried the good roads congress with whoop ts- day when the question came to a final vote.

sorbed into our midst by naturalizing him. Then his glories were our
 But now we are fallen upon de- generate days. Unreconstructed and defiant Britishers are going up and down the highways of America, like this Owen Moran, and undauntedly are whipping our men right and left without promise that they will keep their laurels among us. It would be just like the nerve of this Moran chap to vanish our own Wolgast and go right home with the championship And, as if that possibility were not sufficiently distressing, along comes a scion of noble but alien race, the Hon. Seton Robert Beresford, and knocks the daylights out of our An thony Drexel in the society class. Will Pugilist Beresford remain among us and permit us to retain our hold up- on the title? He will not, any more than his brother, Lord Decies. will permit his new wife to retain her American citizenship.
 No, the heavyweight championship remains almost alone in America, and a negro holds that. The rest of the prizes are falling away from us one by one, and the end is not in sight anywhere. Is the American played out? Have we no doughty warriors among us to indicate our long-cher- ished superiority? Whither are we drifting?

gathered through his only match with Zbyszko, the Pole, who has been seen here number of times recently. Two years ago when these two met in Chicago, Gotch gave the burly Pole a surprise by pinning his shoulders to the mat in six and one quarter sec onds, the greatest record ever hung up.
 The Unknown whom Gotch is to wrestle this evening, according to Prof. Atlas, is a future great. He has been on the mat on a number of oc- casions and has yet to suffer the humiliation of having his shoulders get mixed up with the canvas. A glance at his massive build is sufficient to show that he is there but they all look alike to Gotch. The winning grappler must secure two falls.
 Such a contest as the Lundin-San- dello scrap often goes as the main Bridgeport. The efficiency of Lundin is we'll known to local followers of the game When he tackled Zbyszko over 50 minutes for the Pole to se- point of the game, and is constantly working something new. Sandello is of the scrappy sort. He is a hard worker, but is inclined to be ruffled when up against an equal opponent. He became peeved during his recent bout here with Neil Olsen, the terrible Dane and lost out on a foul, after gaining one fall. Sandello. is quite confident of winning, while Lundin states that he will take all the fight out of his opponent

Frank Gotch, heavyweight cham pion wrestler of the world, arrived in Bridgeport this noon for his match this evening with the Unknown" a stalwart being produced by Prof. James Atlas. They are to meet at the state armory in Main street this evening. Gotch is accompanied by his bride of a little over a month, and by his manager, Emil Klanker. iIjamlar Lundin, the Swedish mou1- ain, who is to wrestle SandeNo, the italian in the premilinary bout, came llong with the champion.
 Gotch is in the best of condition for >tonight's match. In fact he says he keeps in condition all the time. He takes good care of himself always, and follows a regular course of eXer- ,ise in addition to his many mat en- agreements He is the picture of health and strength.
 It is not many years since Gotch irst since he won the championship. In hissnovice days, when everything in sight was placing his broad expanse was his Headquarters. Then he was he pupil of Prof. Atlas who at that .ime conducted Turkish baths in State itreet, his baths being the headquart- ITS for the best the mat produced. Sotch was quick as lightning, and as trong as the proverbial bull. Atlas and Farmer Burns gave the youngster 70 much experience that he soon ac- luired the habit of throwing has masters.

WILL CHAMPION G0TCH
 CONSIDER THE RUSSIAN?
Promoters Say There is no Chance For inc Two to Meet This Season-What is the Answer

The Chicago Inter-Ocean is sure tha there will be no match between Franl Gotch and Hackenschmidt, at leas for many months to come. Gotch wen to England two years ago and chased the Russian all over the tight littl' isle. He challenged him and he mad him look like deuce in the sporting newspaper offices, and all that Hack enschmidt did was to run to cover When in Australia the Russian mad many a bluff as to what he would al to the champion when he arrived her in America. We'll, he has been her now for some four months, grabbinl off good Yankee coin by the barrelful and he hasn't done so very much t. the Humboldt boy. And what is more he won't either. Gotch got his mum Der, when they wrestled that night il Chicago and despite all his supposed cockiness, Hackenschmidt is a mer lamb when Gotch is in his vicinity The Inter-Ocean, commenting upol the present situation in the wrestlinl game, has this to say:
 George Hackenschmidt wants to Wrestle Frank Gotch on Labor Day of this year. Zbyszko wants to wrestle Hackenschmidt some time in the near future and Yustiff Mahmout wants to wrestle any, uOuy at any lihiS hC Cou SSe d chance.
 There is no chance of a match between Zbyszko and Hacken- schmidt this season, according to Jack Curley, who says the Russian Lion will leave this country early in April and is booked up to the time of leaving. Curley said yes- terday that Hackenschmidt would have wrestled Gotch, but that the
 >14 F%NA long. Hack, under Curley's man. agement, is just finishing a most prosperous tour. He has made more than all the others put to- gether so far this season.
 Zbyszko also has been keeping busy, and Jack Herman, his man. ager,s now wants him ito go after the best of them. Herman says that Zbyszko has thrown all the best wrestlers with the exception of Gotch and Hackenschmidt and declares that he Is anxious to get a try at the Russian Lion, with a view to having the winner meet Gotch. He counts Mahmout out, because the Pole defeated the Turk in Chicago last sphing. Antonio Pierri, Mahnout's manager. has in his previous match with Zbyszko and now asks for a return match. The Chicago club and wrestling fans think Zbyszfzo should give Mahmout another chance, and an effort is now being made to bring these two together once more.
 Herman is expected in Chicago today and it is thought that when he learns there is no longer a chance for a match with the Rus. sian Lion that he will take on the Turk in finish bout. This would ' be as good bout as could be pull- ed off and the winner of 1t in a match with Gotch would be the biggest event of the season.
