A large number of students and city people filled Queen's gymnasium, -Sat- urday evenilig, to witness the ainunl nant ei atti held to decraine the men who would represent the college | at the intercollegiate el at MeGill. 3 The contests started with the 115. pound wrestling, in which Roberts de- feated Shak through aggressiveness, no falls being made. The 125-pound wrestling was an ex- hibition match between Racknor (weight, 125 pounds) and (weight, 135 pounds); : in which Racknor scored two lalls in six min- utes. In the 115-pound boxing, Denyes was unable to train down to weight, so the match between him and Appléby was exhibition. ' Both men were in good condition and put a spirited scrap, showing re science, although Denyes was somewhat lack- {ing in guard. | The 125-pound boxing was" one of ithe best of the evening. Hagey (weight, 1243), last year's champion, contested with Dunlop (weight, 125). Both mised it 'up, although Hagey | was more ive and did a lot of | rushing, and was given the decision. In the 135-pound class, Inman was {up against Colhouwn, both men ghow- ing very good form, especially 'in foot- | work, and a close decision was given for Inman. In the 138-pound boxing, Laycock, who defeated Cole in the interfaculty match, was himself defeated by Cols, who has shown a great. improvement, principally in aggressiveness. He used his extra weight to advantage in ut tacking Laycock, who was three pounds lighter. Om account of Dawson having had his nose broken on Monday, there was no bout in the 145-pound boxing. In the Heavyweight Young, a former wrestler, con tested, with Mclnnes, the former champion, in an exhibition match. Young showed lots of fight and a mule-kick punch, but was weak in his guard. Mcinnis was in excel- len: shape, and showed more science than his opponent. Young will represent. Queen's at McGill. The 135-pound wrestling bout, Dodds vs. Spears, started out a very promising exhibition, the advantage being slightly with Spears at first, but owing to his shoulder being hurt, the match was stopped and given to Dodds. . The 145-pound bout was very in- teresting and exciting. Matheson, weight 142% pounds, was pitted against Walker, weight 144 pounds. Matheson showed remarkable skill against Walker, who appeared to. be slightly stronger, and there were many close moments in the bout. No decision was given and the match will be finished Tuesday. The 158-pound bout was between McQuay, 158 and Kennedy, 156. MeQuay showed aggressiveness in the first round and secured a fall, ond in the remainder of the match stalled while Kennedy worked hard to even the score. Both men were in prime condition, but Me- Quay was a little more active. The heavyweight wrestling was be- tween Wilson, 178, and Gootch, 175, | the later started off strong and near- ly secured a fall, but Wilson finally secured two falls in the first round. | In fencing, Melutosh won from Stevens, Carmichael from Caverhill, | acd Carmichael from McIntosh. The 'referee in wrestling was J. Bews, in boxing J. Moxley, and um- * pires Professors J. Matheson, Macdon- ald and Mr. Fleming. . In fencing, J. McKay was referee.

It is essentially a religious drama. Net since "The Sign of the Cross" made its appeal to the British public has the cross and ils true mystic mean- ing been so effectively illustrated as in this notable production. From the title of the play It might be assumed that was concern- ed with the "killing no murder" con troversy which plays such a promin- ent part in the criminal procedure of other countries. The play is con- cerned with the slaying of a mon- ster who oppressed and sought fo debuuch defenceless women. No, the lesson lies a little deeper, as is indi- celed by "The Unwritten Law" being given on the programme as a sort of substitle--"'Blessed are the meek | been for they Shall inherit the earth." If the play teaches us anything at all-- and it certainly has a morally uplift- ing and inspiring effect--it is that sacrificial love and self-renunciation is the strongest thing in the world. It is a lesson that is never so needed as in this luxury-loving age to whom the Russian author brings it as his Master brought it ninetéen centuries ago. oe urvace Irving is including "The Unwritten Law™ in his all-Ca- nadian tour uhder the auspleés of the British Canadian Theatre Or- ganization Society. To-pight Laur- ence Irving will present "Typhoon." on Tuesday, "The Unwritten Law," and on Wednesday, "The Importance of Being Earnest." 7 AN AFTERNOON FROCK Of smoke-blue charmeuse hemme with skunk, the waist-belt of dull yer tissue, The hat with the ond brim r 118 Lady Hamilton's in neyv's picture of her calied "The Se stress, REV.
