The second • draw was very little better, for the word "o" was given before the men were ready won by the Huron boys, amid tae wildest excitement of the spectators. The third draw, however, fully tested the strength and endurance - of' the contestants, and the most determined struggle that ever took place in the village was the result. It is difficult to say just how long the men could stand the powerful strain, but after one hour and a half of heroic efforts, in which neither side had gained any preceptible advantage, the Referee decided the pull. a draw, the contest . ., vcrof A• 9.30p. m. before met in the ring at Lucknow, as the following list will show : PROFESS1ONAL ATHLETES.
