now he changed his mind with a hi
larious flop.
Instantly when the daily sitting
was over and Mrs. Lowell had creaked
away to get into something in which
she felt natural. Andrew seized his

LIFE AND CHARACTER
READING
June 4

.
The governing sign Of this birth
date is Gemini. the sign of the
twins. One trait of character seems
TO contradict the other traits, in
other words they have a dual ma
ture in separate operation.
They want to travel and they
want to stay at home. They want to
study. and they wish to play, then
are happy and unhappy. satisfied
and dissatisfied, at the same time.
They are in love and not in love;
warm and cold in one breath. The
Gemini people do not fly quite so
high as the other denizens Of the
air triplicity. because the twins are
not always agreed upon the destina-
tioD.
The governing planet OF this date
is Venus. the goddess of love, and
the birthstone is an opal. The astral
colors are green, red and blue.

WILL Be REAL CONTEST
Finish Bout To BE Put on by Eustace
ard LinOw.

One of the most attractive wrest-
ling matches ever billed for Topeka
will take place next Tuesday night,
when Alan Eustace and Ivan Linow
exchange grips. There will be moth
ing of an exhibition nature in this
affair, which will be to a finish. and
it will be a real contest from start to
end. Those who know Linow. claim
that no one but Lewis or Zbyszko can
throw him. and they are not sure that
the two mentioned can do it with any
consistency They point to Linow' S
record, which shows that he put
Lewis down in their first match. and
only lost to the present champion
after he had been rendered practically
unconscious thru the deadlock, after
wrestling an hour and a half 1t is
reason enough for them TO back their
1aVorlte, and 1t is predicted that there
will be plenty of chances for Eustace's
friends to lay a wager on the coming
contest.
Eustace writes that he will be in
the best of shape for this match, and
ready for anything that Linow cares
TO try. Eustace is wonderful de-
fensive wrestler, but has not been
called on to show his ability in that
line, as he has been the aggressor in
every match here. and his great
strength and lightning fast work OH
vantage over all opponents. He
boasts of a powerful pair of legs, and
il would not be surprising to see him
use his famous Scissors hold on the
Russian next Tuesday.
There is much talk about the pre-
hminsry bout between Tony Ross and
Bull Smith, and these two flashes
will get the crowd thoroly warmed up
for the main event. With such a high
