Crowd Takes Part.

a portion of the crowd had divided
into bitter factions during the last bout
and these needed but the example Of
their respective principals TO launch into
a battle royal.
The first two bouts gave promise OF
an excellent match. Leon won the first
fall in 50 minutes and 80 seconds with
bali Nelson and body hold. Demetral,
though easily the superior of the Rus
sian in the science of wrestling, could
not withstand the others superior
strength whenever he cbanced 10 get
into tight place. Five times the Greek
twisted cleverly from the fatal hold but
Leon was upon him again with untring
persistence before Demetral could make
his escape. Several times the Greek s
shoulders touched the mat together for
flying fall but Leon could not hold
him long enough for the referee to pass
judgment. At last: by sheer strength,
Leon forced his man To the mat for a
clean fall and the crowd went wild.

Contest for Hits.

There was nothing To il. Wesslcr,
Spencer, Whalcn and Erickson aroused
quite rivalry among themselves to see
which could get the greater number of
hits. Spencer got a hit every time up,

his own ineffectiveness in the box by
getting four hits out of five times up.
Spencer and Wessler each connected for
a home run.
The first run was made by Salt Lake
In the first inning. Spencer singled.
Fortier lifted a high one to center field.
Murray lost II in the sun and il hit the

and Fortier second. Spencer was trapped

The seven teams that were entered
finished in this order: Goullet and Hchir
first, lawson and Thomas second Walker
and HIP third, Clarke and Ryan fourth,
Downing and Mitten fifth. Fogler and Root

The first excitement of the race came
in the first hour when Fogler had n blow
