C, fir department, virtually standing at the post, Louis Fischer, owner and trainer of the two-time champion, was voluble tn praise of the achievement, hut Bud welser modestly declined to comment. The performance witnessed by a crowd of promoters estimated at 30, 000, was smld a colorful scene in the little hill mining ctmp, sit of Mark Twain's classic Jumping frog tale. Indians, ox teams, mul Jerk-line tesms, and other sights reminiscent of th '80s were on hand. , Tills setting and the honors heap ed upon blm when he waa welcomed by Mayor A. D. Menu at th out skirts of th town and escorted to the scans of his triumph by an honor guard and a brass band, failed to disturb the coolness of Budwelser. Cslmly flexing his powerful muscles, he set himself for tb task and then Jumped such a Jump as this frog Jumping town had never before witnessed.
