FRIENDLY WRESTLE, BRINK Ys, MOORE, An exciting collar-and-olbow wrestling match took place yesterday afternoon at Underwood's place, near Riverside, between Horace Brink, well known asa city expreesman, and Lewis Moore, an eniploye.of the Western Transporta- tion Company. About 200 men witneased the contest, and everything passed off fo tha most orderly manner, but the declafona of the referes wore found fault * with—and scemlugly justly so—by Brink's. . friends, Moore's welctt is 220 pounds; ~ and Brink’s 195, Both aro muscular aud well-form- ed men, and the struggle for the mastery was of the most oxciting nature. Friengs of both bad arranged the contest, which wag for $50 aalde. The place sclected was {na beautiful grove, and, the ground bolug rather soft, thera was not much to be feared from sudden nnd heavy falls, Considerable §=— tlma was consumed In obtaining a referee, aud dually Dan Brennan was agreed upon, and he consentettonct. The two men—stripped for the occasion—took thelr places fn the ring formed, aud at 3:45 p.m. the atrugele began. - Some lively efforts were mado by both men toget the first fall, andl, after o lapao of nine minutes, Briuk junded his oppo- nent on his back, and secured it, the match belie the best two in throc, It was apparent that Brink, though not as heavy as Moore, was tho most aliliful wreatier, and” it seemed an if ‘he. would surely goin the contest. After’a rest of cloven minutes the contestants again took hold, and 9 struggle of muscle ensued that is sald to have been far tnore interesting and exciting than the McLaugolin-MeMation match. For nine minutes, with varying chances, tha two power ful men, lovked in each other's embrace, bent and partly. threw cach other, until Mouro, with a creat effort, succecded In putting his opponont ina position that caused the referca to givo him. the fall. After a brief resting spell the men were called. up for the third time, and they immediately hegan desperate elforte to obtain the declding full, For thirty minutes they danced about and used oll their great strength in attempts to waln thelr abject. Finally Brink waa thrown upon his knees, and Moore fored him back and. landed him In such @ manner that the referee gave the fall to Moore, though Brink's friends and some upprejudiced spectators declared that the fall waa not ao fatr one, Moore haying, no right under the rules to force-bly ovponent back off his knocs, thus compelling him to relinquish his hold. But Brink told Dan Murphy to give up the stakes to Moore, und the crowd wont away. Briok desires to have another match with Moore, ant! at the ediniug Fourth-uf-July doings at Dexter Park he expecta to have another con- teat with li, when some well-qualified and ex- perfeuced wrestler or other person of good judg- ment will be chusen as referee, MILITIA NOTES, Owing to the inclemency of the weather Frl- day night, Compuny E of the First Regiment Joat $100 by thelr excursion. ‘The certiticate of electionof John Patchin as Second-Lieutenant of E Company, Tolrd In- fantry, has been forwarded. ‘The Second Regiment will shortly remove its armory to the old quarters of the Firat Rogi- ment, Nos. 113 to 110 Lake streot.
