The Pole took on two or three other wrestlers and wound up with Roy. That was several years ago, but Roy says that he has never met a real man since. Roy said that he had the speed of a light weight and the power of a lion. Speaking of Roy he is right down to business with his training. He informs us that he is rounding to slowly but surely.

BRITISH COMMEND DEMO CANDIDATE LONDON, July 10.—British newspapers today hailed with satisfaction the presidential nomination of John W. Davis by the Democratic national convention. Most of the big London dailies paid high tribute to Davis who is well known here, having served as ambassador. "Englishmen know Mr. Davis at first hand on account of his residence here," the Times said "and his nomination cannot fail but be satisfactory." The Westminster Gazette expressed the opinion that Davis was probably the strongest candidate the Democrats could put in the field "now that the Republicans prospects are impaired by the oil scandals." This newspaper also asserted that the appearance in the presidential race of Sen. Robert M. Lafolette as an independent progressive may aid Davis' chances.
