FARMER BURNS MEETS CHAMPION GOTCH
r
"Farmer" Burns and His Famous Pupil.
u) " un (.1 i til lut
u surprise of his life on December
£ 19. 1899. at Fort Dodge, la. That
surprise package was in the form
of an agile, bouncing youth labeled
‘ Frank Gotch, from Humboldt, la."
The "Farmer," accompanied by an
"Americanized Turk," was out meeting
all comers, and the country lad. untu
tored in the fine points of the game,
happened to be the "comer" who came
forward, among several ethers, to try
to get some of "Farmer" Burns’
money.
A delegation of Humboldt townsmen
and country folk who had seen Gotch
defeat Marshall Green, the chicken
picker, and had watched him give bat
tle to Dan McLeod for nearly two
hours, accompanied Gotch to Fort
Dodge to watch him battle Burns.
McLeod had told Burns about the
wonderful young wrestler he had en
countered at Luverne, and Burns de
cided not to risk defeat for his Turk,
whom he had dressed for the occa
sion.
“You had better not tackle that
Turk, my lad, he will kill you." said
Burns to Gotch.
Gotch says that be knew "Farmer"
Burns' protege was not a genuine
"Terrible Turk,” but he let the "Farm
er” think he was scared. "It was
Burns, not his Turk. 1 wanted to
wrestle," he said, "and Burns wanted
to wrestle me, so everyone was satis
fied."
"I was surprised at Gotch's
strength," relates Burns.
"1 had never encountered a young
wrestler of his remarkable agility and
strength, but at that time he knew
absolutely nothing about wrestling.
I decided to rough him for a time,
tire him out and then fasten some ef
fective hold to pin his shoulders to
the mat. Gotch was eager to remain
fifteen minutes and draw down
the $25 I had promised to forfeit to
the wrestler ‘sticking’ that time.”
Burns scon discovered, to his dis
may. that the youngster knew more
luufeuiug n (uau ciuuui v> i tat*
. ling, and then rushed in and slammed
him to the mat with a leg and arm
hold, but Gotch was up in a flash.
“Stay with him. Frank." yelled a
Humboldt backer “Stick, Frank."
chorused a hundred other friends,
eager to see their "find" make good.
Burns shifted from one position to
another with lightning like rapidity
until he put Gotch down with a leg
hold. Then he tried a half nelson but
discovered that he could not budge
the Humboldt lad. Hammerlocks, bar
arms, head locks and many other
holds were tried on the “comer” in
rapid succession, and by sheer
strength Gotch broke every grip his
experienced opponent fastened to him.
Finally Burns fastened the double
nelson grip to Gotch's arms and neck,
locking his fingers over the youth's
head. Gotch wriggled around until
his feet dangled over the footlights.
He hooked his toes over the edge of
the platform and as Burns tried in
vain to tip him the crowd roared with
laughter. Glancing down Burns saw
what the youngster had "pulled'’ on
him and shoved Gotch away from his
position of vantage. Then ensued a
struggle the spectators have never for
gotten. Gotch. by sheer strength, lift
i ed "Farmer" Burns off the floor while
he had the double nelson, bringing
prolonged cheers from the Humboldt
fans.
Burns shifted to a crotch, and as he
| tipped Gotch over on his shoulders
! for a moment the referee patted the
; veteran on the back in token of vic
tory. They had wrestled eleven min
utes and forty seconds. Burns, com
ing to the footlights, addressed the
crowd as follows:
“Ladies and Gentlemen: 1 have
never met an amateur wrestler the
like of this fellow in my life If be
will go with me, I will make him
champion of America in a few
i months." Burns later made good on
that promise

REFUSES TO SELL HARVESTEP

Russian Government Have Cham

Horsemen who are interested ir
the future of the American trottei
and the development of breeding high
class harness horses in this country
are greatly pleased over the fact that
, C. K. G. Billings has refused to put a
price on The Harvester, the world's
champion trotting stallion. It is re
ported that the Russian government
through a special agent sent to this
country, had offered $100,000 for The
Harvester.
When the Billings trotters were in
Russia last summer, in charge of
"Doc" Tanner, a group of Russian
horsemen offered Mr. Billings $175,000
. rubles, or over $£5.000/ for The Har
vester, but it was as promptly de
clined as the offer here through their
government as a second effort.
A prominent horseman who knew
of the offer said: "The offer made
for The Harvester by Russians was
promptly declined. When urged for
a reason all the well-known sports
man and owner of the three world's

Spring Bonnets for Children
Modeled After Their Elders
SHAPES for liitle girls are miniatures of some of the shapes made for
grown-ups, and are quaint and pretty because they have the charm which
belongs to little things patterned after larger models. Itut the trimming
of these hats for children is more distinctly different than ever before
from that used on the millinery of their eiders. This season shows a fancy
for narrow ribbons tied in childish bows. Flowers are tiny and ostrich is em
ployed. but made up in special designs fitted for children's wear.
Little pressed shapes divide honors with hand-made hats of thin mate
rials. Beautiful models are shown of the daintiest laces laid over French
crepe or the thinnest silks. Lace is more strongly featured than embroid
eries. Brims are covered with fancy edgings extending beyond the brim
edge. Facings are of highly lustrous silks or ribbons. Fancy edgings with
pendant finish, like that shown in the illustration, are quite new and capti
vating for these little bonnets.
Children’s millinery is adorably quaint and suggestive of happy child
hood. Colors are light and material fragile; for these small bonnets are for
the dress occasions of little ladies. For every day and school wear quite
ether ideas have been carried out by designers.
Misses' hats are another story and in a class by themselves. While they
show the iniluence of the liking for thin materials, such fabrics are more
sparingly used on them than in hats for women and children.

This is a pretty, effective dress of
pale grey satin cloth.
The skirt has the seam down left
side of front wrapped and trimmed
with buttons and loops; the lower
edge is curved off and the upper one
is cut out to show a small panel of
silk, which also trims the bodice; the
lower part is of tiie silk, so is tbe ,

The collar is of lace with a frill

net forms the little vest, also the un
der-sleeves, and bands of silk trim '
the sleeves.
Materials required: 3% yards cloth j
44 inches wide, 1 yard silk 20 inches !
wide, about fi dozen buttons, one-half

Jockey Blouses.
The jockey blouse is going to be the
fad of the early spring. Already the
fashion is being tried out a little in
Paris and seems to be • taking," we
are told.
The jockey blouse suggests nothing
so definitely as the straight front,
rather close fitting blouse of the
jockey. Its distinguishing character
istic is found in the sleeves, which are
of a different color than the body of
the blouse
Vivid contrasts and almost discords
are favored for the jockey effect.
Good Dressing.
To understand the art of good dress
ing does not show vanity but wisdom.
And for a woman to contribute to
the charm and beauty of life by under
standing the underlying principles of
good dressing and practice them in
the making of her clothes is to benefit
the world and her own self at the
same time.
Good dressing does not necessitate
any uncomfortable compromise with
reform in dress.

Old Fashion That May Again
Become Popular.
A few cf the new gowns go back to
tne remote epoch of the polonaise.
he coats of the last season, with
iheir deep round pointed backs and
long curved fronts, have paved the
"ay so that the transition to the pol- I
onaise does not seem surprising
Wnether or not it will be more than
a tentative experiment remains to be
sfen. hut at any rate the experiment
is being made.
The saying, -'Other times, other ‘
manners, is nowhere more sure of !
Us application than in the realms of
lash.cns. So it is quite te be expect
ed that these Twentieth Century of- '
ferings in the polonaise should have '
their own distinguishing features. In
one case where the polonaise is of
deep pink panne velvet worn over a
while charmeuse slip k is extended in 1
the back to form a pointed train. A !
giiole of silver gauze crosses outside
ihe velvet in the back, but is drawn
through openings several inches from
the front edges of the polonaise and
tuen continued in soft folds across
tne bust, forming the front of the cor
sage. This polonaise and that cf fifty
years ago are decidedly not the same
thing, but their common origin is’ un
til stakabie.
Charming Border Designs.
Beautiful border designs are shown
in the new summer materials, and
foulards, voiles, dimities, lawns and
swisses all have taken unto them
selves borders—wide or narrow. As a
rule, these borders are charming, a!
though it is not always easy for the
uninspired dressmaker to use them
successfully. Radium foulards have
improved until, at their best their
texture is marvelously light, ’supple
and lustrous, and yet they are mere
practical than ever, uncrushable, spot
proof and serviceable. The prettiest
things shown in this class of silks ara
the fancy designs—quaitt floral ef
tects in old-fashioned colors.
Cord Instead of Buttons.
Some of the designers tired of but
tons are attempting to substitute lac
ings of cord to be used on the skirts,
as well as on the jackets. These lac
ings have been used extensively for
some time instead of buttons on negli
gees and house gowns adding a deco
rative finish that owed much of its
chai m to the fact that it was "some
thing different," but the idea of
adapting them for jackets and skirts
is innovation. Yet the effect is good,
as was conclusively demonstrated by a
costume worn recently.
Yellow Laces.
The yellow or gold laces and golden

The question of good dressing Is
more simple than reforms and move

TO AUCTION NOTED ESTATE
Lady Henry Grosvenor Orders .Sale
of Well Known Property in
Leicestershire.
I/jtidon.—Quenby hall, in Leicester
shire, one of the few absolutely per
fect specimens of old Jacobean
architecture in the kingdom, with the
estate of 2,030 acres on which It
stands, is to be put for auction by
order of Lady Henry Grosvenor at
Messrs, Knight, Frank & Rutley's
room in Hanover square next month.
All through its history the charac
ter of the mansion, both interior
and exterior, has never been altered.
Never at any period, from 1610, when
the building was begun, right up to the
present day, have any so-called
•modern" improvements been intro
duced, except, perhaps, in the matter
of sanitation, introduction of bath
rooms, electric light, and so forth.
Old Quenby Hall.
But otherwise, nothing, not even to
the extent of displacing a leaden pane.
Quenby hall belongs to the time
when the classic influence was gain
ing a strong hold in England. It
remained from it3 erection till the
end of the eighteenth century in pos
session of the ancient family of
Ashby, though it was on the lands of
Quenby that the old Convent of St.
Mary de Pratis was founded in the
early twelfth century.
The hall is approached by a long j
drive through a natural park of about i
one hundred and seventy acres, and
from its windows there is an u'nin- !
terrupted view of beautiful country. '
In the stately reception room is an old
massive oak carved and arched
screen, and a grand old stone chim
neypiece. The dining room is all oak
panelled. The tapestry bedroom, the i
gra^ bedroom, the saloon, or "great'' ;
chamber, possesses something of
artistic or historic interest. It is full
of valuable old furniture and tapes- ,
tries, which may be sold with the
house.
The gardens are well kept, the j
stabling is ample and there are a
number of farms on the estate, which
bring in good annual rentals.

AS TO FLAVOUR.
Found Her Favorite Again.
A bright young lady tells how she
came to be acutely sensitive as to the
taste of coffee:
"My health had been very poor for
several years," she says, ‘)I loved
coffee and drank it for breakfast, but
only learned by accident, as it were,
that it was the cause of the constant,
dreadful headaches from which I suf
fered every day, and of the nervous
ness that drove sleep from my pillow
and, so deranged my stomach that
everything I ate gave me acute pain.
(Tea is just as injurious, because it
contains caffeine, the same drug found
in coffee.)
“My condition finally got so serious
that I was advised by my doctor to go
to a hospital. There they gave me
what I supposed was coffee, and I
thought it was the best I ever drank,
but I have since learned it was
Postum. I gained rapidly and came
home in four weeks.
“Somehow the coffee we used at
home didn’t taste right when I got
back. I tried various kinds, but none
tasted as good as that I drank in the
hospital, and all brought back the
dreadful headaches and the ‘sick-all
over’ feeling.
"One day I got a package of Postum,
and the first taste of it I took, I
said ‘that’s the good coffee we had in
the hospital.’ I have drank it ever
since, and eat Grape-Nuts for my
breakfast. I have no more headaches,
and feel better than I have for years.”
Name given upon request. Read the
famous little book, “The Road to Well
ville,” in pkgs. "There’s a reason."
Postum now comes in concentrated,
powder form, called Instant Postum.
It is prepared by stirring a level tea
spoonful in a cup of hot water, adding
sugar to taste, and enough cream to
bring the color to golden brown.
Instant Postum is convenient:
there’s no waste; and the flavour is al
ways uniform. Sold by grocers—45
to 50-cent tin 30 cts., 90 to 100-cup tin
