 Stumping Strong Men to the Test.
 The vexed question of who's who? between Elmer G. Bitgood of this place and the Great BaTteIlO is still bother ing sport enthusiasts here. The prob lem is, which of the two alleged strong men backed down? Some say Bar tellO and others emphatically deny this, claiming that BitgOOd squeaIed. The morning before BartellO left PlainfeId he went up to BitgOOd's house and he offered him all sorts of propositions, but could not bring him to any terms. BartellO brought along a couple of local men to BitgOod's house who say the same as BartellO. On the other hand, Bitgood claims that he would lift against Bartcllo providing that they start their lifts at 25O pounds, and he says BarteuO would not agree and so he lowered the starting lift to 200 pounds, but BartelIO wished 150. BitgOOd called under 200 pounds a dis grace and would not lift under that weight
 These two factions oppose each other as two opposing Mexican fac tiOns.
 Bartello said that he would subscribe for The Norwich Bulletin and that at any time BitgOod wished to make it known he was ready, he (BarteIlo) would be ready to settle this matter once and forever.
