to the top of his class.
Joe Stecher. the late champion, is
fortified with a very strong pair OF
legs. He specialized in body scis-
sors hold that for a year was the
terror of the wrestling world.
Stecher would coil his legs around
an opponent and finally crush him
into submission.
But his legs were inferior to the
arms of Lewis in their recent bout
for the championship.
Lewis seven times caught Stecher's
head within his arm and applied the
deadlock with such pressure that the
champion was finally so groggy that
he finally went to the mat and lost
his title.
Wladek Zybosko was so furiously
hurt by the Strangers" deadlock
in a recent bout that it was feared
for a while he would lose his sight.
In the hospital he said it was
lie most terrible punishment he had
ever undergone.

LONDON, Feb. s.--No less vital an

Of the Empire, or whether the South

No decision has yet been reached
by Mr. Burke Roche as to when he
will begin the legal steps necessary

the action OF the Fairfax family OF

OF his intended action, Mr.. Burke
Roche said: 1T has taken me a long
time to decide to accept the title

The Declaration continues its reasonable utterances by
asserting that when ong of abuses usurpations

their duty to throw off such and provide
