Before q large but not record-break-
Ing audience ut tho Pinney theatre
Monday night, Charles Cutler OF Chi
cago won his wrestling match from
Jess Westergaard Of Des Moines In two
straight falls, the first In 40M minutes
and the second in II. Part OF the con-
test was a Whirlwind burst Of speed,
and for other minutes the big Crap
piers milled around with their heads
together and their great arms failing,
seeking advantages. Apparently they
were equally matched for speed and
strength, Cutler winning on reserve
OF both after Westergaard's best wind
was used.
The Iowan started the offensive. work
one minute after the mill opened, and
sought in every possible way to make
the contest short and sweet. At tho
end of the first ten minutes, however,
he dislocated the middle finger Of his
left hand, and thereafter was unable
to hold his good clamps in place. Twice
he applied body scissors that threat
ened to clip his bulkier antagonist In
twain at the middle. but he was UNI
able to complete his downfall with the
right arm lock.

threw him to the mat, squeezing his
shoulders down in no time.
After tho intermisslon, Cutler took
the offensive, and except for a minute
when his own head was in u Lewis
deadlock he had Westergaard in danger
until the finish. For four minutes he
held on head scissors, and though
up on his knees, he only gained his
liberty at the expense Of his remain

from Leslie Cilley one ear of flint corn
weighing liz ounces and measuring

STRANGER wITHINTHEIR GATES
De Soto People Mystified Regarding
Appearance and Disappearance
of Child

A strange girl, giving her age as
nine years, and her name as Pearl
White, made her appearance at the
Lawson hotel Monday morning and
asked for room and board, saying her
mother was coming from Chicago to
get her the next day. Having no rea-
son to doubt this strange story, Mrs.
Lawson gave her breakfast, after
which she played about the street.
Then suddenly at 10:45, just as train
"a arrived, she hurried down to the
depot and boarded the train without
buying ticket. Nothing more is
known of her, and DeSOto people are
much mystified at the strange appear
ance and disappearance of the child.
No one has clue to Lef identity, and
it is suspected she is a runaway, and
that the name given is fictitious. Any
one able to shed additional light on
the matter is requested to notify the
Argus office.-DeSoto Argus.

Camp Grant, Where Most of Our Sol

ARMY Post

Tomorrow is Sunday. The next
day is Sunday too, for Camp Grant
And the next. And the next. And
50 on for eternity of Sundays. This
great city of the war today ends it's
role in the drama and settles down
to the changeless routine of a regular
army post. A little drill in the morn
ing, little rest in the afternoon, a
little guard duty at night and lot of
fatigue.
Corporal Jack Weber, leaning de-
jectedly against telephone post and
appraising the deserted streets and
dreary barracks with dull eye, state
ed the situation:
'In for the duration of the peace,
he said.
Along miles and miles of camp
street one passes the deserted bar
racks. The windows are closed.
The squad rooms return ghostly echo
es to the strange footsteps of curious
wanderers who occasionally pass
through. The hunks are folded up
and put away, the hunks where so
many boys sat and held their heads
and wished for home. The dining halls
are thick with dust. The kitchens are
empty of the pots and pans the greasy
surfaces of which represented I'M
sounded depths of degradation to boys
never acquainted with a dish rag.
Wild grass grows in the drill fields.
Grass grows in the corrals where I'M
tanned horses came by the thousand
to be broken by boys who had never
spoken to horse. Grass is cropping
over the once carefully tended side
walks and edging at the very doors
of some of the barracks. 1t was not
like this a year ago when more than
$4,000 men were working feverishly
from sunrise to dark to fit themselves
for victory.
