Wrestling fans are waking up to the fact that they are going to have an op- portunity to see one of the best “rassles” that has been pulled off In the west. Word comes to Secretary Mellor of the state board accompanied with a roll of lucre to show he means business that Gue Guestenson of Kilgore, Canada, will ©ome to the fair and attempt to put the shoulders of Nebraska's young wrestling king, Joe Stecher, to the mat. Gus comes with some backing and con- sidorable of a repctation. He threw Dr. Roller and wrestled a draw with Orde- mann. This puts him In a class that will insure the fans a good look at a lively bout, and as Gue as deposited a cholce assortment of bones with Secre- tary Mellor that he will forfeit if he does not wrestle, it means that he be- lleves he can slam the Dodge county husky on his back. Gus weighs 25 pounds. | Forage Polsoning. | State Veterinarian Anderson has gone | to Cralg this afternoon to look up some kases of forage polsoning which has caused the death of five horses In that the same dlsease which caused 8o much fatality among horses three years ago. bank in Hamilton county have ‘with the state banking board. is given as $25,000 and the directors consist of A.
