trainers and helpers last night and j
each are confident of winning the I
wrestling match tomorrow night. One
feature of the affair that has not been

agreed that the winner takes the en
tire gate receipts. The promoters
have arranged for a preliminary
match, probably between Kincaid and
Elms. The referee will be chosen |
from the ring side and the match will
be the best of the kind ever pulled otf

challenge will be issued at the ring
side challenging the winner on behalf
of one of the local celebrities. The
