READY FOR THE BATTLE. ' Wrestling Match Tonight Promi ses to be the Best in this City for a Long Time. On the eve of the battle in Wilder B Hall tonight both wrestlers are confi B (lent of victory. Leonhardt writes as ■ follows: Newark, N. J. Sept. 16, 1908 L “I am finishing up my training to a uuy, so mat 1 win on in uw |iiiik 01 I: condition for tomonow night. I will give Mr. Hansen the hardest game he W has ever had in his life. I can go a f taster pace than ever before and will show the people of Perth Amboy that I am the wrestler of old. “Sincerely yonrs, “Ohas. Leonhardt, “Champion middle-weight Graeco Roman wrestler of the world." Hansen has returned from New York where he has been training for the past few days, and declares that he never felt better and that when the match is over, Leonhardt will not have snch a prond signature to his name. By downing the Newark wrestler twice Hansen will hold the “championship of the world” and his Perth Amboy friends will be glad to k see him have it. The preliminaries ^ have already been announced. They promise to be fast and interesting. ^PHans Svarre will try to down Henry [ Axen two out of three times and Jor I gen Hanson and Marinos Stokkel will i have a go. The greatest interest is f in the main boat, however, and a big p orowd is expected. CRESCENTS—COPPE R WORKS. The Raritan Copper Works first team and the Crescent baseball team will have a battle royal for baseball honors on the Copper Works diamond Satur day afternoon. The battery for the Copper Works team will be Smith and Lind. The battery for the Crescents will be Costello and Cleary. This will probably finish the season for the Crescents.

Drink Had Cont Him Many Oppor tunities, But He Was Still Alive. He was an elderly man, very disrep utable in appearance, and showing all the signs of having been on a spree. His niece, whom he had not seen for some years, had come across him on Twenty-eighth street quite by accident and had taken him home and given him “a square meal.” He expressed his thanks and they sat for some time talk ing about the people they both knew and what had become of them. The niece, who was married, was inclined to resent the waywardness of this partic ular member of her family, and at last gave expression to her thoughts, says the New York Times. “Jim,” she said, severely, “why don’t you turn over a new leaf and be alnan. Why, if it hadn’t been for drink you’d be worth a lot of money now. You’ve had lots of opportunities, but drink has always kept you poor. And now look wnai. you are. He looked at her a minute or so in si lence. There was a resentful gleam In his eye that was half pitying. “Umph!” he murmured. Then, after a pause: “Sue, your father was a tee totaler, wasn’t he?” “Yes.” “Well, he’s dead. I’m not!” lloynl lit* in on Sauce.

At any drug store, Corinthian Canal rhiMiomcnn, The remarkable canal, less than four miles long, cut through the Isthmus of Corinth and opened in 1893, 25 centuries after the time of Periander, who projected a similar work, has proved a disappointment partly because it is too small for very large steamships, and part ly because of peculiar tidal and atmos pheric phenomena. The high winds, which occasionally turn the Gulf of Cor inth into a raging sea, make a huge air shaft of the canal, the walls of which are, in places, 2G0 feet high, although the depth of water is only 26 feet and the width 80 feet. Thus “mighty currents of air rush through from one gulf to the other.” Then, owing to a difference in the time of high water in the Corinthian and the Sardonic gulfs, a troublesome re versing tidal current is met with in the canal.
