The wrestling match in the People's
Theatre last night was attended by a-
bout 300 people. Jim Smart propos-
ed to down Jim Prokes once in an
hour, toehold and strangleholds
lm,-,,¢|_ for a purse of $100. C. H.
Qberdick was chosen as referee and
Byron Brown as timer. The match
started at 9.20 and in the ensuing
oontest the swift work of the preced-
ing engagement between these two
men was somewhat lessened owing to
me (set that Prokes was not forced
eo work but kept on the defensive
while Smart had to be the sgressor.
In his defense work Prokes was splen-
did and broke many sure
looking holds. Smart at one time
was warned for adopting improper
tactics. He had a stranglehold and
when made let it go he left the mat,
having to be called hack. Prokes
held his man for about eight minutes
more and refused to wrestle though
requested to do so many times by
the referee, saying Smart had to do
the work. The match ended with no
falls and Prokes was therefore de-
clared the winner. The Manager of
the theatre states ‘ that as the
public do not evidently appreciate
the low prices charged the Prokes-
Smsrt match will probably be the
last match staged for some considi
crnblc time.

LON`DON'S' DRESS-SUIT BURGLAR.
LONDON, Feb, 12-A novel method
of breaking and entering other peo-
ule’s premises has been adopted by a
man who is believed tob be known
to the police as an expert burglar.
Recently complaints have beenl receiv-
ed that efforts have been made to
break into a number of flats in the
west end, and investigation has
shown that the method employed has
in each case been similar.
Apparently the criminal, a well
dressed geiitlemanly looking man,
sometimes attired in a dress suit and
immaculate white shirt and at others
in a dark suit, with flat-crowned,
broad-hrimmcd bowler hat and light
fawn overcoat of "Newmarket" cut,
drives up to ii block of flats in a
taxicab during the early hours of the
morning. He asks the night porter
for a number, and, instead of using
the lift-, prefers to walk upstairs.
Next he cuts a panel out of the fromt
door of the flat, and bv this gains an
entran'ce,rifling the rooms at his lei-
BUY8. `
The last exploit occurred at Bick-
cnhall Mansion, but lie must have
,been disturbed, for when the servants
,put in an appearance the front door
_ of a flat was found
pierced through, and ii
leather bag of tools was found on thc

RUSSIA TAKES STEPS
T0 STOP WAR OF
ITALY AND TURKEY
,___-
R0-ME, Feb, 12-Details of the pro-
posals made by Russia for peace be-
tween Italy and Turkey are not
known, but it has been disclosed that
they are based on: the necessity of
stopping the war and averting the
danger of complications in the Balk-
ans. The situatlon in the Balkans is
regarded by Russia as most S€ri0\\H
'and she has therefore assumed the in-
itiative in an attempt to bring hos-
tilities to a close. _
The proposal has been communicat-
ed to Germany, Austria, France _and
England, with ii suggestion of ii Joint
"action by all these powers. It is un-
derstood that it was not s\\gK¢H¢¢d
that there he an armistlce during thc
negotiations for peace.
Russia's motives for oD¢“l“\!_ th”
negotiations are based on Italy a de-
cision not to extend the sphere of
hostilities to the lower Mediterranean
and not to _take decisive action to
hasten the ending of the WM- SUB
therefore suggests a concerted move-
ment to stop a conflict which Italy
is bound to continue. at UW °°“» ““‘
