Defeats Abdulah Bey, the Turk—High Class Wrestling—Challenges Jack McGrath. Those who took the opportunity to £0 to the rooms of the Windham Ath- letic club Wednesday evening witness- ed one of the best cards hat has been put on under the auspices of the local organization, and the very best wrest- ling match that was ever fought out in this city—bar none. Never has there been a match here that was so brim full of action from the moment of the call of time. The contestants were first-class also, Sam Anderson, the middleweight champion of the world, and Abdulah Bey, the Turk, a 200 pound grapplef, who has never be- fore teen thrown in a match since his arrival in’ thig country. When An- nouncer L. N. Dondero introduced the men there wuas a tumult of applause as the contestants stripped for action. Abdulah Bey was a very rugged look- o miewaati e sttt e 8t an it he wag none the less sclentific. New and unheard of stunts of the game exhib- ited by each man served to keep the tense audience enthralled ell the time, Once it seemed that Anderson was pinned to the mat on a toe hold, and the Turk asked if he gave up, but then, at an unexpected twist, Anderson hurléd him against the ropes and out- side into the benches, and the Turk was dazed for a moment. They Wwent at it again, and after hard and clever work Anderson won the first fall on the toe hold in 32 minutes. ‘When the men came together for the second trial the Turk forced the go- ing, and his strength seemed ta be wedring Anderson down for & few mo- ments, but the latter came back stronger and stronger and soon the fierceness of the battle began to tell on the Turk Andcrson was on top most of the time.. The audience went wild at the fine quality of the match, and when Anderson finally forced Ab- dulah Bey down and held him to the mat for the second and jast fall in 15 minutes, on a head, scissors and body hold, thiere was another great round of applause. Anderson addressed the cfowd some- thing like this: “Gentlemen, when I was_here last time I challenged Jack McGrath, the Irish Giant of Norwich, and offered to bet that I could throw. him; but to daté he has taken no no- tice ‘of me. Perhaps you think T'll be up against a hard proposition, but I cen throw him, and he knows I can, and, further, I have got money to bet that I can throw him twice within an Bour, I will waser 3100 that I can do Kid Bullock of Minsfleld end Piko Barber of this city furnished the first preliminary, and Barber won two out of the three falls in less than half an hour.
