Tho content wan the main event In nti athletic program given under tho nusplccH of the Omaha School of I'hyntcal Cultutc. It wan 10 o'clock before Coleman and Sealla entered tho big elevated ring, on the Hour of which n mat had been spread. The ap pearance of the local wrestling professor van greeted with vociferous applause, and bis opponent was kindly received It Whs apparent when the two men en tered tho ring that Seall had a ureal handicap In wclfiht favoring hltn".

Then he secured a hnminerlock, following Immediately with a crotch hold mil half-Nelson, and Sealls was sent sprawling on tho mat, with both shouldcra down. Tho llftceu minutes' intermission did not tilTU'o to recuperate Sealls' wind, lie had spent tho greater patt of his energy In the first roend and in the second made an heroic but Ineffectual effort to defend him self from Coleman's scientific skill. At the end of four minutes' tltn Coleman gained tho second fall, by employing tho hnmmer lojk and following the advantage with a half-Nelson and Halch hold. I'll rill it Hum.' Cllllllenuc. lWiilo Koblnson. who directed the even ing's program, read a telegram from Farmer Hums during the Intermission be tween tliii .first and second fulls, challenging tho winner of the match to a contest nt catch-as-catuh-can holds In either Omaha or Chicago April Coleman announced that ho would ncet Hums regardless of the outcome of tho match In which ho was at tlio tlmii engaged provided the "farmer" would make a weight of lfiS pounds. "There is every reason to believe that Farmer Hums will agroo to Coleman's con ditions," said Mr. Itohlnnoii, "The weight designated by Coleman Is one that Hums can easily mako nnd I am Inclined to think that it will mict with his entire approval. The match wl',1 he held In Omaha nnd tho record of Coleman, who has not been de feated since ho began his wrestling career hero more than a year ago, prompts me to bcllcvo that he will be victorious In his match with Hums." Tho preliminaries to the Colcmon-Scalls match were thrco sparring bouts and two wrestling contests. All of them were good nnd created a great deal of Interest. Kid Stafford and Peter Hooncy put up u line ex hibition of the manly art and t'f there had been any decision tho former would easily have been declared tho victor. All tho sparring limits, were for thrco rounds. Mike Kbit and Chris lloyscn were tho principals In the second bout and Denny llnloy and Tony Monsteln mixed together In the third. Hilly Haley nnd Tom Mitchell created u great deal of merriment in their wrestling contest. Haley had all tho best of tho argument because of his superior weight, but Mitchell was game til the enro nnd kj: meted out n generous share of the applause.' Haley won two straight falls, tho llrst n one minute nnd the second In three anil n half minutes. Frank Shoemaker and Denny Haley, pu pils of Prof. Coleman, were the principals In a splendid wrestling exhibition.

Several days ago Glnd wln called on Shcrlft Power and stated that ho was on the track of a man and woman whom ho had good reasons for suspecting in connection with the kidnaping. Ho told the sheriff that ho hud laid the case before Clilof of Police Donahue, but that official hud refused to take any stock In the story, (lladwiu further stated that he expected to locate tho man and woman within a few duys and wanted to know If ho tlid so whether or not the sheriff would nutkorlzo their arrest. Sheriff Power told the de tective that his office would render proper assistance to anybody who wanted to mako a proper arrest. Wednesday afternoon the sheriff received a telephone mcss.igo from Gladwin, at Onuwa, stating that ho had caused the ar rest of hta suspects nt that point, and re questing the sheriff to secure requisition papers nnd to come after the prisoners. The Hhcrilf told Gladwin that tho Informa tion against tho Jacobs was not sulllulent to warrant him In taking any action In the case. Later In tho day Sheriff Power was ad vised from Onawu that Jacobs and his wife wore well known as residents, of Council Illuffs, having lived thcro for seventeen years and bearing excellent reputations. Accompanied by Sheriff Johnson of Onawn, Jacobs came lo this city yesterday after noon. Thcro was n conforonco In the private office of Sheriff Power, nt which Chief of Police Donaliuo was preaent. Jacobs had no difficulty In establishing ii good reputation and It was clearly evi dent, tho olllclals say. that his arrest was without provocation.

The beer that made Milwaukee famous You drink some beers that cause bilious headache. Perhaps you think that ail beers do. The cause of biliousness is the lack of age too much haste to put the beer on the market. To ferment beer thoroughly requires a process of months. Without it the fermentation takes place in your stomach. That is the cause of biliousness. Hurried beer is unhcalthful. Schlitz beer is kept for months in refrigerating rooms with a capacity of 205,000 barrels kept almost at freezing point until it is well fermented. Schlitz beer is never marketed until thoroughly aged. Plionc 013, Sc'.illtJ, 710 South Dili St ., Omaha, Never Causes b Biliousness Try h vuau ol ScullU liver, Telcyhoue lUS.
