WRESTLING ON MONDAY.

Fast and skilful wrestling should be seen in the Town Hall on Monday night when two light-heavyweights. Anton Koolni.iii (Estonia) and Jot: Kcatos (Malta) will meet in a ten-round bout, which may bo taken as deciding the Australasian championship in that class. Those who have seen Koolman in action are aware that it is only his lack of weight which prevents him joining the first flight of wrestlers, since he has science and speed much above the average. He is also an able- instructor, and amatcuv wrestling in Wellington owes a great deal to his tuition and enthusiasm. . Keatos comes in the nature of an unknown quantity, but he has an imposing list of successes behind him, having defeated good men both iv the vicinity of the Mediterranean and iv Australia. In wrestling, as in boxing, it is not always the big men who give the most attractive exhibitions, as smaller men can move more quickly and infuse more action into their display. As usual, the bout will be preceded by amateur matches commencing at S o'clock, but there, will be no broadcast on this occasion. Particulars are advertised in this issue.
