To be a Brilliant Function.

There are currents and tides of
times when certain topics seize upon
the public mind and arrest attention.
These psychological disturbances come
and 60. For the moment, one has
found concrete expression in the in
auguration of movement to install at
The Marlborough High School Library
commensurate with the needs and dig
nifty of modern high school plant.
The event of immediate interest to
the public and to the patrons, the
alumni, and the students of the High
School is the Card Party to be given in
the auditorium of the Masonic Hall at
Upper Marlboro, Saturday evening,
June the third, for the benefit of the
M. H. S. Library fund. The Card
Party, which is the initial affair of
several to follow. for the benefit of the
same fund, comes at very opportune
moment. 1t is the crowning number
of series that should make the town
of Upper Marlboro center of unusual
activity and gayety during the week
beginning Monday the twenty ninth.
Elaborate preparations are now 60
ing on to make the Party a notable
function both socially and financially.
AS the result of several conferences
held at the High School the Committee
Assignments have all been announced.
The Committe on Floral Decorations,
which is composed exclusively of M. H.
S. girls are maturing plans to trans
form the auditorium of the hall into
thing transcendently beautiful.
Those attending the Party will have
the option of playing either Bridge or
Five Hundred, and entire freedom of
choice in the selection of partners and
in the grouping of players will be ac-
corded guests. A number of very at
tractive prizes will be awarded. Cards
will be played until ten o'clock, beginn-
ing at eight, and refreshments will be
served to guests at the Card tables
while the games are on. A brilliant
dance will be opened at ten o'clock, and
will continue the remainder of the
evening. Tickets are now being offer
ed for sale.

Of the graphing game remember well the
speed and ability Of the Norwegian
sailor in his last appearance here against
Turner, when the local grappIer won on
MS two deadly holds. namely the toe
hold and the double leg. toe and sitting
crouch hold.
Willis. who is 4 winner Of one OF Lord
Lonesdale's wrestling tournaments. gives
the local mailman credit FOR being one
OF the best grapplers he has ever met.
but in an attempt to gain satisfaction he
challenged Turner TO a match at the
middle-weight limit with the above
named holds barred, although he was
willing to test his strength and endurance
against the strsnGle hold. The local
police authorities interfered with the
match and compelled Manager Tuber-
Vile. Of the Pennsylvania avenue play
house, 10 barr the stranEle hold.
Like many Of the local graphing
fans, Willis is OF the belief that the To-
cal middle-weight king cannot make the
l5S poundase required for this class Of
wrestling, and Manager Tuberville has
arranged the match 50 the Ersppler must
weigh-in before the bout. A scales will
be put on the stage and. along with
Referee O'Connor. & committee from the
audience will be selected TO weigh-in the
grapplers. large sum has been posted
that both grapplers make I5S or forfeit
their money.
Turner accepted Willis challenge. know
ing that he was two pounds over the
limit. but he has trained faithfully dur
ing the past two days and is confident
that he will make the required poundsEe.
The argument of weight appears easy
to Willis, as he is slightly lighter than
the local pride and should have no trou-
BILE in making 15s before the bout Opin-
ions differ on Turner'S chances against
the fast Norwegian grappler under the
conditions which are named in this match
and from the interest shown by the local
fans one Of the largest houses in the
history Of the wrestling game here is
expected. This bout will start at 1879,
following the regular performance.
