' Youn Beel Bays that the dark "mystery can cripple a cage , of -catamounts. The following literature has been received from Young Beelr ,V ;! , ..-. "I wrestled at Anderson, the other night and was beaten by the Turk by a close margin. : 1 1 have written t to Manager Charlson and to Olson and I also made a trip to Richm6nd to challenge Olson on behalf of an, unknown. I stand ready to back - this unknown against 01 sop 'N the. Turk or any other wrestler for any part 'of f 500, to wrestle public or private. . "I have been told that my man would not draw a good crowd. If that Is true, and I do not believe it is, any wrestler can make a nice little wad If he can beat my unknown in private. I etand ready to wrestle any 165 pound man in the country." The match Monday night of next week between Olson and Winkelhoefer former wrestling partner of Hackenpchmldt, will completely overshadow the most interesting match that has hitherto been held In this city, the one last week between Olson and Bob Manogoff. Winkelhoefer tips the scale at 210 pounds, is all muscle and is as quick and skillful as Olson. The odds will all be in his favor. The match will be fought catch-as-catch-can. f Preceeding this match will be one between - Young Beel and Dick Rober, two of the best men in the country. These two matches can be seen for the usual price of admission. Last year Young Beel won renown by defeating Americus at Baltimore, incidentally winning a side bet of $000.

Affairs of the Sporting World

-Having been spanked "enthusiastically and vigorously both by Pennsylvania and Syracuse, It is highly probable that Michigan'8 desire" to associate with select eastern elevens, rather than those rude western teams, has been ; more man grauuea auu next jeai: iuc Wolverines will be found rough-housing with teams of their classwhich are to be found exclusively this side of Steubenville. . V Tip to bad managers The next time produce harmony at the coliseum, run a wrestling, match or a polo game for a side issue, that is if you want the box office to work over time. Clark Griffith has notified President Hermann of the Cincinnati Reds that he will not manage that team next seaSon. Why not continue the old policy of allowing the Cincinnati Enquirer to manage the team? ' Captain Steffen of the Chicago team Is the idol of the Windy City. In the game with Wisconsin Saturday, the score standing 12 to 12, Steffen seized the ball on the kickoff and ran one hundred yards through a broken field for a touchdown. It was Steffen's last j game of his football career. Packey McFarland will have to put a little venom in his punch if he is going to bowl over the lightweights ARMY AGAINST NAVY Annual Football Game Promises to Be the Most Spectacular Struggle. TEAMS WELL BALANCED. The football season of 1908 will formally close when the football elevens of the army and navy meet on Franklin field, Philadelphia, on Nov. 28 in their annual struggle on the gridiron. The game arouses widespread interest, not only in football, but In both branches of the service far and near. From the showing made by West Point and Annapolis this fall, the annual game at Franklin field will in all CAPTAIN PH rliOON OF THE ABMT AND DAITON, NAVX'S GREAT KICKER. probability be a corker. The two elevens appear evenly matched, with chances- slightly favoring the army team on their good showing against Princeton and Yale. The middles made good against - Harvard with a tie score, but were beaten 16 to 6 by the Indians. Captain Northcrof t, the navy's tackle, is a born leader. He knows the game thoroughly and is into every play. His recent feat of kicking a goal from the field from the forty -five yard line was a great performance. Quarterback Lange has All American aspirations. " He is heady, gets everything out of the men behind him, kicks faultlessly and Is one of the greatest runners on a broken field today. TAFT-ROOSEVELT BOUT PLANNED. Clarkedale, Miss., Nov. 23. John Leonard, wealthy contractor, who has been prominent in entertainments for charity, has left for Washington for the purpose, he says of arranging for a : wrestling match between President-elect Taft and President Roosevelt for charity."..

who separate him from the championship, - It would be ' a great , mistake for American association teams to declare war on the big leagues. Many of them exist solely by their ability to hoodwink fast set clubs into buying qpinces for fancy prices. At least one American association club does not have to kick. Indianapolis palmed off Pitcher Marquard on New York for $10,000, and the latter did nothing but lose a game which cost the Giants the pennant Young Fred Corbett, the Italian fighter. Is said to have inside information on the Abruzzi-Elkins nuptials. At 1:30 p. m., the Cornell team is as fierce as a squad of peevish Cossacks, but a half hour after meeting Penn the Ithlacan eleven generally comes in sections. . , i - Slingluff and Philoon are not a team of comedy acrobats, but the opposing center rushes for the Army-Navy game on Franklin Field next Satur

day. Fred Merkle is going to study law In order to be qualified to defend himself whenever he fails to touch second again. Jones has been cfianged from left halfback to left end. Clay going to the vacant position behind the line. The change was not proposed on account of any dissatisfaction with Jones' work. Clay is a very speedy and clever back and was only displaced by Dalton because of the latter's punting ability. Slingluff, center, is of All American caliber. He Is remarkably fast, charges quickly and follows the ball well. Reifsnlder, right end; Leighten, right tackle, and Wright, right guard, all are veterans. Take the army eleven from end to end and behind the line and there Is a reason to believe that the players will do better than the team of 1907. Dean Is a better kicker than West Point had at any time last season. In every game in which West Point took part in the fall of 1907 the catching of punts was enough to rack the soul of any coach. The performance of the team this year Is something like the accomplishing of real catching. It Is very satisfactory to players and coaches as compared with the record last fall. , The army's back field is a strong one, Chamberlin playing at fullback, Surls at left half. Greble right halfback and Baehr fullback. In several .scrimmages this season Surls showed he has his old time ground gaining power. Chamberlin's long rest has done him good. Wood, Kern and Hyatt have all been tried out at quarter. Hyatt has given many brilliant exhibitions in run ning back punts and also added many gains with quarterback runs. Moss, right guard, has recovered from his Injured knee, and Captain Philoon has been playing a good strong game at center, MISS KLOECKER DEAD. Well Known Woman Victim of Con sumption. , Miss Anna Isabel Kloecker the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Kloecker, died this morning at the home of her parents, 646 South street after several months sickness of consumption, at the age of 21 years. Miss Kloecker was one of the well known young women of Rich mond and was a member of the First English Lutheran church. She was a graduate of the Richmond high school and attended Earlham college. .friends may can to view tne remains any time after 3 o'clock Tues day afternoon. The funeral announce ment will be made later. INJURED IMPROVED. Two Adams Children Are Removed to Home. The members of the family of James Adams, who were Injured by being struck by a street car at Thir teenth and North E streets Saturday evening are Improving. The injuries to the two children were found so trivial that they were removed to their home in "Needmore." Mrs. Ad ams remains about the same. PLANS NOT ABANDONED. West Sidera Yet Have Hopes of Riv erside Park. It is claimed by members of the West Richmond Improvement Assocla tlon that the proposition favoring a riverside drive and park has not been abandoned. It is asserted the project will not be permitted to be lost sight of, although matters now may appear to be in somewhat of a lethargy.

It was little Ethel's first visit to church, and the sermon had for its text "As ye sow, so shall ye reap." But on her return home she could not remember it and In consequence was chlded by her mother for being stupid, A fortnight later a seamstress came to the house to do a day's work. After watching her for awhile fashion old style garments Into those that were the vogue Ethel suddenly exclaimed: Oh, mamma, I know now what the preacher said.

CAPTAIN'S WIT

SAVES MANY LIVES row of Vessel Held in Steamer's Side, Saving Passengers. WILD PANIC IS STOPPED. HEAVY FOG RESPONSIBLE FOR ACCIDENT SUNDAY WHICH MIGHT HAVE RESULTED IN HORRIBLE CATASTROPHE. New York, Nov. 23. The lives of more than 00 persons were imperiled Sunday when the fruit steamer Admir al Dewey, Inward bound from Jamaica crashed into the -steamer Mount Des ert, outward bound from Bay Ridge for the fishing banks. It was only the nerve and quick thoughts of the fruiter's captain that prevented a catastrophe. He held the prow of his vessel into the hole In the fishing vessel's side while most of the 450 passengers on the latter boat umped down to the decks of the Ad miral Dewey. There were some slight ly injured, but no fatalities. Heavy Fog on the Bay. There was a heavy fog on the lower bay when tl Admiral pewey, coming suddenly out of a fog bank, struck the Mount Desert almost amidships, open ing a gash in the fishing vessel that extended from the upper deck to the water's edge. The passengers on the Dewey were at breakfast in the sa loon, but those on deck say that the crew was blowing the fog blasts prop erly. When the collision occurred the Im pact threw a large part of the fishing boat's passengers off their feet, but the effect on the Dewey was slight. There was a panic on board the Mount Desert in a moment and when the up set passengers regained their feet they began to jump to the decks of the Dewey. i After the first shock of the collision the Mount Desert came back almost on an even keel and the hurricane deck then was above the forward deck of the Dewey. Men began boost ing one another up to the Dewey unIl sanity returned to them. Realizing that if he backed his steamer away many would have fall en into the water, Capt. Davidson kept the fruiter moving slowly ahead and this held the prow into the rent that had been made and afforded a boarding place for the frightened pas sengers of the Mount Desert. , New Office May Be Estab lished Owing to Growth Of Postal Business. HANDLEY MAY GET PLACE. In the near future several changes will be made at the local postofflce, the most important of which will be the probable creation of the office of city delivery superintendent. Post master J. A. Spekenhier has recom mended to the postal authorities that this office be created owing to the con stantly Increasing business of the post office and the steady growth of the city, and he further recommends that Lawrence A. Handley, "one of the most efficient carriers, be .appointed to fill this position. His duties would be to supervise the delivery of all mail In the city and to keep the efficiency rec ord of the carriers. Joseph Treeber, who has been doing clerical work and acting as a substi tute carrier, will probably be given a carrier's route. Lewis Niewoehner who Is one of the night mail handlers will probably be assigned to day duty and Clarence W. Foremer will be placed on night duty. The appoint ments of Albert Meyer as sub clerk and Joseph N. Blose, as sub carrier, have been recommended. FRIENDS JOIN LUTHERANS THURSDA v Union Thanksgiving Services To Be Held. :,The St. Paul's Lutheran, the Second Lutheran, the South Eighth Street Friends' and the First English Luth eran churches, will unite in Thanks giving services at the First English Lutheran church at 10 o'clock Thursday morning. It is quite probable that Rev. Conrad Huber of St. Paul's church, and the Rev. Emmerson Harsh of the Second church, will preach. DOG SHOW POSSIBLE. Fanciers to Meet and Discuss Such Event, A meeting of the dog fanciers of the city has been called for tomorrow evening at the Young Men's Business club rooms. It is proposed to give a dog show in this city next month and all owners of dogs or-others Interested are asked to attend tha meeting. ' . ' -:- Kodoi Relieves soar stomach. Pilaitatif at ths heart.
