KAHflLOSii B rBUMPS" TURNER Hanson Victor Afteri Sixteen Minutes 1 of'-'Vrc8tling.;4 Swede Went Down First In one of the-prettiest wrestling r.-ntc-sts ever held locally Fritz Han u on from x"Bumps" Turner at son Luuiina last nigni. Alter losing the j.j;! tall to his opponent, Hanson carut l ack like a raging lion, and B,aiir a short finish of his opponent, ',,,,, !Uf, the second and third falls v-;tU the deadly hammerlock. Ti t - ontest was one of the cleanest an J fastest seen hereabouts since vU-.i!!!)g was started and Turner nia(!c a fine impression. The visitor woikcl splendidly and displayed a tteroimh knowledge of the game. It hi; misfortune that he chanced t0 .retire the first fall. The leffect ,,; Tins upon Hanson has been wit- once or twice before. I each instance the unlucky duck vho look, the first fling found himself the loser. So it was last night. When tl1P swede came back for the second fail it took leTTs than foir minutes tor hi ni to pin his heavier antagonist's uni with a hammerlock and Turner quickly gave up. The third fall went for iwt-lve minutes and ended in the .;auit manner as the second. Alter losing the match Turner, asked Referee McGurley to state for him that he had been defeated fairly tiy a better man and that he had no excuses to offer. Turner made a fine impression and demonstrated that he i? n t lever exponent of the mat game. Th, tans liked his ? work and many are hopeful that he and Hanson may e $etMi later in a return match. There was a large crowd present, craiposed of hundreds from -the city a'j.: from the resort. Ladies predomi nated and they were as much inter ested in the match as those of the ni;isei:Mne persuasion. Both Hanson and Turner wrestled on a clean, straight basis. They worked hard tluvii-hoiit, but the match was entire ly free from unnecessary roughness or displeasing tactics. The wrestlers seemed well content to wage their campaign on a basis of ''the better man win." Turner's statement to this effect after the match Should be eucuiph corroboration for the remark that Hanson, last night at least. proved his mastery over a and formidable opponent. worthy j i Turner' first fall was won with a duuMe arm roll and was taken in jpiu- of Hanson's almost superhuman r forts to set away. . There was no breaking the lock, however, and the first session went to the visitor.

There is a law in this State which im poses a fine for each and every of fenoa where oysters are gathered or marketed out of the season. According to Mr. Montgomery the oyster season locally will be one of the best the city has enjoyed in some time.

He was of the opinion that the range would be 60 cents to $1,000 per gallon. It is a well known fact that the ra coon oyster which is gathered in the neighboring sounds is one of the sweetest and most palatable oyster obtainable . NEGRO DROWNED.
