Much Interest Is Manifested in
To-Night's Tournament.
KING CAN'T GET A MATCH
Little Pugilist Says He Has Been After
Moss Lafontise's Scalp for Some
Time, but Without Result.
Want Sleighing Weather.
Missoula. Dec. 29.--Local sporting en
thusiasts are looking forward to an
interesting exhibition Saturday night
when the celebrated Turkish wrestler,
Hall Adali, will display his wonderful
powers in Missoula. . His partner in
the exhibition will be D. A. McMillan,
the Chicago champion, who has ap
peared elsewhere in the Northwest
with him. There has not been any
good wrestling in the city since the
days of the lamented Professor Lewis,
who lost his laurels here to Jack
O'Neill of Kalispell in a magnificent
bout that will long be remembered by
those who were fortunate enough to
witness it. The Turk will give his cus
tomary exhibition and make his usual
challenge to any local champion who
wants to try conclusions with him.
There is an effort being made to have
Arthur Laravie go against him again.
Laravie tried it in Spokane and it is
said that he made the best showing
against the Musselman that has been
made by any man in the Northwest.
Laravie came down from the reserva
tion a day or two ago and his friends
here are endeavoring to have him re
main till Saturday night and show
what he can do. He is a powerful fel
low, heavy and strong, and if he con
sents to try the Turk again the exhi
bition will possess more than its usual
interest.
Andy King, the well known Anacon
da boxer, who has been giving spar
ring exhibitions here for some time,
will spend the next few weeks in Spo
kane, where he has a couple of matches
in sight. King is exceedingly popu
lar here and is considered one of the
best boxers that has been seen in this
city. For his size he is a wonder, and
if he has anything like an even inatch
in inches and pounds there is no doubt
that he will acquit himself with credit.
King says that he has tried several
times to make a match with Mose La
fontise of Anaconda, but that he can
not get any satisfaction at all from the
clever man of the Copper City. He
prolonged his stay in Missoula for some
days in the hope that he could make
some arrangement by whieb lie could
meet the Anaconda man, but he re
ceived no reply to his letters address
ed to Lafontise, and gave up the pros
pective match. He will be ready, he
says, at any time to meet Lafontise
and hopes that after he gets to Spo
kane a match may be arranged.
Owners of speedy road horses are be
coming impatient at the delay of the
weather clerk in sending sleighing to
this valley. A week ago the prospect
was excellent, but was ruined entirely
by the advent of the chinook. Then
there came another snowfall that rais
ed their hopes for a few hours, but it
disappeared as rapidly as it had come.
The present snow followed and has re
mained, but it is not deep enough for
good slipping and there will have to
be about five inches more on top of it
to enable the flyers to show their
paces. Drivers and owners scan the
skies morning and night and they are
making enemies of the stockmen by
praying in their crude way for snow
enough to enable them to gratify their
desire. The old favorites and some new
speedy harness animals are waiting and
are said to be very fit. With a little
more snow there will be nothing in the
way of some fine sport in this line.
Take Your Choice.
"From the Atlantic to the Pacific"
or "History of the Spanish-American

Missoula, Dec. 29.-The preliminary
hearing of Alex Bombard, who is one of
the men charged with the burning of
the Bandmann bridge, will be had be
fore Justice of the Peace Houtchens
Saturday. The case is important and
is attracting .considerable attention. It
is the sincere desire of the general
public that the incendiaries be appre
hended and punished. The crime was
one of the most outrageous that has
been committed in Missoula in recent
years, and the community is not safe if
such men as these are allowed to be at
large. The county attorney and the
sheriff have been hard at work upon
the case. Their evidence has not been
divulged, and there is much curiosity
to know what has been discovered' in
connection with the case.

Coyo!es Killed.
Missoula, Dec. 29.-Joseph Andrews
brought down 'from his Lolo ranch to

a very pretty rug. When he saw that
he could not get his bounty certificate
without cutting them off he took out a
knife and off they went. Mr. Andrews
says that in the last few weeks he
has caught 17 skunks and is ready for
all that comes his way.
