The telegraph about a week ago gave usa brief announcement of a wrestling contest that took place in New York on the night of the 18th between Joseph’ Acton, the champion English wrestler, who is generally known as the “Little Demon,” and Clarence Whistler, a strapping young American, In the New York Sun of the 19th appears’‘the following finely-written description of the contest, which will interest. the many lovers of the manly sport of wrestling in these parts: Seldom -has a wrestling “match promised a finer display of ‘science than that which took place in Madison Square -Garden last night be‘tween Joseph Acton and Clarence Whistler. Acton came from England several months ago, maxing his home in Arthur Chamber’s “Chamber's Rest,” in Philadelphia. His credentials as a wrestler were firstclass, English sporting newspapers gave accounts of his prowess from the time he was a lad until he earned the title of the “Little Demon” by throwing the.famous wrestlers of Europe, in turn, from middle weights to giants. Shortly after his arrival he issued a challenge inviting. any wrestler in America to meet him in a match, This challenge remained unaccepted formany weeks, until his fellow-countryrman Bibby picked up the gauntlet, and was worsted in short order. Next Tom Cannon, another English wrestler of fame and physique, grappled the ‘‘Little Demon,” and bit the dust. Then Clarence Whistler, a young American of brawn, who came from the foothills of the Rockies ‘three years ago, after twisting hardy mountaineers to the earth, and who has since proved a match for the strong wrestlers of the East, was selected to face the apparently invincible Englishman. The match was. made for a thousand dollars a \side and the championship of the worl.). ; Messrs. Pilkington and Jacoby backed Whistler and Arthar Chambers staked Acton. Mr. Richard K. Fox was stakeholder. Whistler is 28 years old, and 5 feet 7 inches high. He weighs 165 pounds, Actonis 30. He is two inches less-in-‘stature than Whistler, and weighs.151 pounds. The conditions of the match were catch-ascatch-can, best two in three falls, minutes rest between falls. Betting ruled about even. There were at least 2,000 -pertons in the hall when the men. stepped on the platform. : er The wrestlera grappled in. their first round at 8:22. They simply wore socks and. breech-cloths, Acton’s breech-cloth was blue and Whistler's red.They first locked wrists and then clasped each other around the neck, standing with their ‘foreheads pressed together, locked like stags. Unlocking aftera fruit less strain, Whistler made a move to get Acton’s neck in chancery. Acton sprang to one side like a flash. Whistler dropped to his knees. Acton was on his opponent in a second, with his arm around Whistler’s body and his left hand grasping Whistler's left arm. After several ineffectual attempts to turn Whistler on his back, in ove of which Whistler was tore than Kalf: thrown over, Whistler twisted and leaped to his ‘feet again. Another stay ‘lock around each other’s necks, 2 release, a fresh grapple, and Whistler went down safely on all fours, with the little Englishman on_ top. Whistler now acted on the defensive, Acton clasping him around his body with Lis right arm. Acton’s right hand was at times busily employed in clasping one. of Whistler’s ankles or his left arm, straining toturn him until his muscles knotted in big bunches. i Whistler watched his chances, getting the ankle-lock on the Englishman once or twice, and then rising from his knees, tried to toss him It was ‘iron against sceel, steel springing erect and clear every time. ' While on their feet, twelve minutes from the beginning of the bout, Whistler, glistening with Perspiration, clutched for Acton’s head. Acton darted to one, side, grabbing his adversary around the waist with his right arm and his‘thigh with his left, and bringing him down on his shoulders. Before the referee could stoop to see if he was fairly on his back Whistler squirmed on hia side and broke Acton’s hold, While the crowd shouted wildly the referee shook his head, meaning ‘‘no fall.” -Arthur Chambers leaned over the ropes and bet $200 even with a man in the crowd that Acton would win. Another ten minutes on_all fours, with Whistler the under man. Acton working alternately® with the body and arm or leg-lock, and Acton had his man nearly on his back . again, but Whistler eiscceen out and broke clear. Grapplingagain, Whistler was . soon down on hands and knees, still on the defensive. At. fifty-five minutes from the start Acton gave chim another lively t iting, buat ‘failed to get his voale tay on the platform. : At this time Acton was in far the When he 'roee to his feet, Arthur Chambers pointed to his flesh, saying: “Look: at him; ‘he hasn't sweat.a hair yet.” . An hour and a half passed with no fall. Themen were then given a ¢ -. ed_hie defensive: position, sprawling 15}, reat of two minutes, and a rub down. Recommen¢ing, Whistler resuinous like a great frog, much heavier. weighted than Mark Twain’s famous jamper of Calaveras. Acton forced the work to his utmost strength, but the athlete from the Rocky Mountains braced himself on his knees and arms, back up, refusing to stand or stroggle for the mastery. Ina few minutes the wrestlers. rose to their feet and stood facing each other, hands down. The . umpires “and referee yathered around’ them. The crowd began to shout, “Go on!” while hisses arose on all sides, Arthur Chimie stepped to the ropes, and, leaning over, exclaimed: “There is money in this thing; there is a thousand dollars a side—” “Go on with the match!” shouted the bystanders, fiercely. * It_was then said that Acton, aatisfied that he could not tarn Whig: tler on his back while he persisted 'n his frog practice, had asked to withdraw. In answer to the clamors of the crowd, Chambers placed the wrestlers in their former position, . Ac-’ ton tugged away again for a few minutes without iesult. Chambors exclaimed, make him wrestle.” _ After another and fruitless stru:gle Acton réleased his grip from Whistler's body, when both retired to their corners. A vigorous hooting and_ hissing ensaed, during which Pop Whitaker mcunted a chair on the platform shouting in atentorian tones:: “Order for one moment. The men have matually agreed to call ita draw.” The referee said to the Sun reporter. that there wasno use in continuing the match, as Whistler had declared that he would sprawl all! night on the platform before he would rise to tackle the Little Demon, The crowd dispersed with many growls. { ‘Joe can’t A Successfal Party. An item about the party given at Hunt’s Hall Tuesday evening by the Ivy Social Club was accidentally omitted from this paper, yesterday, but-it is not yet too late to say that the event was a grand succress, The attendance was quite large, andthe young gentlemen of the club with their characteristic good judgment and tact so managed the proceedings as to make it one of the most enjoyable gatherings of the season. ‘TheIvy Club has won such a strong hold upon public favor as to.insure its parties beiug largely patronized by lovers of dancing.

Before the referee could stoop to see if he was fairly on his back Whistler squirmed on hia side and broke Acton’s hold, While the crowd shouted wildly the referee shook his head, meaning ‘‘no fall.” -Arthur Chambers leaned over the ropes and bet $200 even with a man in the crowd that Acton would win. Another ten minutes on_all fours, with Whistler the under man. Acton working alternately® with the body and arm or leg-lock, and Acton had his man nearly on his back . again, but Whistler eiscceen out and broke clear. Grapplingagain, Whistler was . soon down on hands and knees, still on the defensive. At. fifty-five minutes from the start Acton gave chim another lively t iting, buat ‘failed to get his voale tay on the platform. : At this time Acton was in far the When he 'roee to his feet, Arthur Chambers pointed to his flesh, saying: “Look: at him; ‘he hasn't sweat.a hair yet.” . An hour and a half passed with no fall. Themen were then given a ¢ -. ed_hie defensive: position, sprawling 15}, reat of two minutes, and a rub down. Recommen¢ing, Whistler resuinous like a great frog, much heavier. weighted than Mark Twain’s famous jamper of Calaveras. Acton forced the work to his utmost strength, but the athlete from the Rocky Mountains braced himself on his knees and arms, back up, refusing to stand or stroggle for the mastery. Ina few minutes the wrestlers. rose to their feet and stood facing each other, hands down. The . umpires “and referee yathered around’ them. The crowd began to shout, “Go on!” while hisses arose on all sides, Arthur Chimie stepped to the ropes, and, leaning over, exclaimed: “There is money in this thing; there is a thousand dollars a side—” “Go on with the match!” shouted the bystanders, fiercely. * It_was then said that Acton, aatisfied that he could not tarn Whig: tler on his back while he persisted 'n his frog practice, had asked to withdraw. In answer to the clamors of the crowd, Chambers placed the wrestlers in their former position, . Ac-’ ton tugged away again for a few minutes without iesult. Chambors exclaimed, make him wrestle.” _ After another and fruitless stru:gle Acton réleased his grip from Whistler's body, when both retired to their corners. A vigorous hooting and_ hissing ensaed, during which Pop Whitaker mcunted a chair on the platform shouting in atentorian tones:: “Order for one moment. The men have matually agreed to call ita draw.” The referee said to the Sun reporter. that there wasno use in continuing the match, as Whistler had declared that he would sprawl all! night on the platform before he would rise to tackle the Little Demon, The crowd dispersed with many growls. { ‘Joe can’t A Successfal Party.
