AsERe MEETS zBYszko.
Two of the Worlds Best WrestIers
 Meet in Boston Thursday.

Boston, Feb. 23.-When StanisIaus Zbyszko the mighty Pole, and Alex Aberg. the unbeaten Finn. clash in Mechanics building on Thursday two of the worlds foremost wrestlers will be brought together in what is pn- doubtedly the biggest wrestling event ever decided in this country other than that in which Gotch won his worlds championship from Hackenschmidt in Chicago.
 Both Aberg and Zbyszko are looked upon as standing head and shoulders ovor all the other championship aspir- ants now in this country. The former has a remarkable record of unbroken victories for the last ten years, while the Pole has had only a single fall scored against him at catch as catch can rules in the last five years. He has not been beaten at catch as catch can style in a finish match since he met Gotch, and he has many supporters in his claims that he can reverse this re- suit if given another chance.
 To bring Aberg and Zbyszko to- gether in Boston. George w. Touhey gives purse that amounts practically to $10,000, besides a bonus to Zby szko to come to this country from France, where he was under contract at a big salary. The holders of this contract demand remuneration for it's cancella- tion, thus adding to the amount that the Boston promoter had to guarantee to bring these mat giants together.

Monday evening in T. X. B. hall Waldel1 Zbyscko, the Pole, and Ignatz Mulsofski the Russian, were the prin- ciples in 8 -aS-catch- wrest- ling bout. The Pole threw his oppon- ent with ease. In the firstt round he threw him in g minutes and secured the second fall in minutes.
 All the way through the bout the Russian took to the defense, but in the first round he had @ head scissors on the Pole that looked dangerous for a while. Through lot of squirming and moving around Zbysco broke the hold and got Nelson that pinned his his opponent to the mat. Two or three times the broad shouldered Pole pick ed the RuSsian up off the floor and threw him down none too gently.
 The second round was faster than the first. In four minutes Zbysco secured a bad head hold on Mulsoslxi that made him snort like bull for a time.
 Jack McGrath was refedee and time keeper.
 In the preliminary Jask Donovan, the wrestling cop, threw George Hay CT in two straight falIs-first in min utes, the second in minutes. Cap tain Danny Murphy did the refereeing act.
 Just before the main bout a man from Jewett City by the name of Alex Foleick challenged 4sbyscko for a match in the future, and was accept ed. Zbyscko's manager said that they would arrange for date in this city. At the end of the main bout Jack Me G~ath. formerly of this city, challeng- ed the winner of the court, the bout to take place right off and produced the coin, but the winners manager said he did not have the money with him, but would write out a check. Jack preferred the long green. Right after that Zbyscko's manager said that the Pole was ready to meet any one in the world Zbyscko accepted Jacks challenge and the match will come off in the near future.
