ous Russian officials of high order made it possible for me to dodge con- finement, and I was given the freedom of the city, but always under the watchful eye of the police and the mil itary authorities. During all the time that the Czar was in power I had no trouble in Russia. It was only after he was deposed and the rebels began to overrun the country that one mis- fortune followed another. My money was confiscated, Food was scarce and frequently I went a full day without thing to eat. My usual weight was around 250, but the semi-starvation in Russia reduced me to below 200. Ii was only after I got into Poland and worked along with Paderewski, the pianist in an effort to bring order out of chaos, that I got or a regular diet again. Things were very turbulent there at the time, but even before the war ended, conditions had been straightened out.
 Tt is more than six years since I engaged in bout in this country. And six years added to the life of an ath- lete is quite lot. But during all that time I did not commit excesses and kept in good condition. Right now 1 feel that I am just about as good as I ever was and I want to get back onto the mat in this country in a hurry Naturally, I would like to meet Joe Stecher, the champion. first of all, but if that is impossible, I will take on any corners and all corners as fast as they are ready"

 Ask Cooperation
By Assoeiat,d Prss,

New Orleans, February 24.-Gov- ernor Pleasant late this afternoon took action to prevent the holding of the national game cock fights in Orleans or Jefferson parishes after he had per- sonally prevented the scheduled mains from being held at Opelousas in St. Mary's parish Sunday night.
 In telegram to Superintendent of Police Mooney here the governor stated that he had received information that the cock fights would be held in New Orleans, and called upon the police chief to stocp them, the governor stating that he understood that the promo tors, baked in attempts to stage the championship mains at Opelousas, had shipped the birds to New Orleans, and would stage the events here or just across the line in Jefferson parish, in the next few days. The chief Of police in replying to the governor promised cooperation in preventing the event

CENTRAL ID MEET
 NASHVILLE CAGE
 TEAM HERE TODAY
Tennessee Champs Take on CrimsOns at B. A. c. This AfternOOn-Game to
 Begin at 4 O'Clock

After putting in one of the
 strongest claims for the state bas-
 kctbaII championship, the Central
 High school CrimsOns have now
 turned to interstate contests, and
 will meet the Nashville Central
 High quintet here this afternoon.
 Central has not met defeat this year, and the local boys coNsider that they have an excellent claim to the state title. Victories have been won over many of the strongest teams in Ala bama by the Crimsons, and there are mighty few quintets left from which to pick a possible rival for Central.
 The Nashville boys are considered the champs of Tennessee. If Central can win tonight. she will have a good other hand, if the Nashville boys are victorious, they might lay their cl-im to the honors of Alabama.
 The return game with Sidney La nier. played Saturday in Montgomery, was hard one for the locals Al though they won from the Poets, the Central players were rather bunged up at the end of the contest. The game had been rather rough. and the Grim sons received several bruises from the affair.
 Burbage has kept his men on the grind since they returned from Mont gomery, and announced yesterday that they will be in excellent condition for the game tonight.
 Daily workouts at the B. A. C. have kept the Crinsons in tip top form. and with the old pep" up they should be able to take off the high honors of Tennessee tonight
 Stubbs and Hahn, forwards, are working in great order and have at tained considerable accuracy in their goal tossing. Barks and Crane, guards, make worthy pair at their positions, and Coach Burbage is relying on them to stop the rushes of the Nashville for wards tonight. Lawley has been go- ing up in the air and getting the ball in fine fashion lately. The 1anky cen ter should cover himself with glory to- night, as his work at center is excel lent.
 The game will be played at the Bir- mingham Athletic Club at o'clock this afternoon. Central students will turn between the two quintets.

During the regime of Kerensky I was in Petrograd," related Zbyszko. T was billed to appear in a wrestling tournament, which was to take place in that city. For some reason or other Aberg, the Russian wrestler, had not been invited to participate. I daresay this slight angered him, with the re- suit that he determined that if he couldn't take part in the contest. neither could l.
 From the best possible sources I got the tip that Aberg, who had been a wrestling rival of mine in the days before the war, hired about 100 men to spread the report that I was in real- ity an Austrian spy. It is not hard for

Southern League MoguZs Disband

I want now is one more chance to wrestle him. Give me that and you can execute me as soon afterward as you may determine"
 This appealed to some of the sol diers as sporting proposition. and they influenced their superiors to per- init me to wrestle Aberg. The latter was summoned almost at once and told that he had to wrestle me. Aberg didn't know the plight I was in and that I was in reality battling for my life against him. For the soldiers had told me that if I lost to Aberg they wouldn't even give me the privilege of later xecution-insisted that 1 would be shot while on the mat.
 DEFEATS ABERG
 "Aberg and I wrestled for nearly two hours and 40 minutes. I put my whole body and soul into the effort and final ly succeeded in downing Aberg. Im- mediately afterward I jumped out of the ring and started toward my dress ing room. Even before the match had begun I had conceived an idea for es- cape in case I defeated Aberg. So as I reached the doorway l was met by friend who had a package containing approximately 10000 rubles.
 Grabbing the bag from his hands and tearing it open. I began throwing around the rubles. The soldiers for got all about eseorting me back to my dressing room and then leading me to prison for execution on the following morning. They began scrambling for the money and during the excitement I made my escape.
 During the early years of the war I was a prisoner in Petrograd. Soon after the declaration of hostilities be- tween Austria and Russia I was i'm termed as an Austrian. But I was never put into prison. My reputation as wrestler and my friandaa1iD with yari-

 a considerable item, it is easy to see that per capita consumption of 40 tc 50 gallons per day is a minimum for satisfactory sanitary conditions. The average service, it would thore- fore appear, will undoubtedly con sume considerably more than 5000 gallons which the present maximum rate of s1 SO would purchase under the proposed meter rates.
 In their application, the company states:
 Tn metering consumers and estab- fishing the proposed meter schedule of rates, the company is not seeking to increase it's revenue nor to increase the cost of necessary water to it's consumers, but to effect now neces- sary conservation of water
 This being so, we did not deem it necessary to consider what rates are necessary to give satlsractory income, and in fact, have not been able to obtain the necessary data on which such study might be made, in the short time available for this invest igation.- It has seemed sufficient to decide what meter rates are neces- sary to give the same return as the present fiat rates. . The following tabulation shows the amount of water per service per month which would be obtained for various amounts of money per month under the meter rate at present authorized:
