The closeness of the match and enthusiasm which it aroused caused several of these incrouching beyond the rails in their effort.; to gain an uninterrupted view of proceedings. Tbit; action promptly met with the disapproval of some of the officials who ordered tin* advancing llanlcs to retire. One spectator demurrel, whereupon words followed, eliminating in the official taking to the objector. His stature was not as high as that of his opponent and lie soon found hi,; hands full until assistance w s forthcoming from the Law, An amusing interlude it caused the ma!cli to wane in interest for a few minutes while it lasted, but.tho match i.soon came into its own again.
