The Glove Contest.

There is considerable speculation as to
the probable outcome Of the match
between Sullivan and Gleason on Sunday
evening at the Opera House. The men
left their work last Saturday and went into
active training. and nave been doing some
hard work to put themselves in condition.
Sullivan takes his exercise with two assist
ants at daylight in the morning. After an
hour or SO at the Rink gymnasium, he
takes Q walk up to Ruby Hill and back.
OF his antecedents we know but little. He
is q young man about 20 years Of age. and
has made the sparks fly from the forge for
a living. He weighs in the neighborhood
Of 1870 pounds, and appears to be solid and
Pfull OF endurance. His experience with
the gloves is limited, but his friends claim
that he handles the mittens with no little
dexterity, having taken lessons some years
ago from an old fighter. Gleason 10 also .
blacksmith by trade. His friends claim
for him no end Of pluck, and, though
not quite as heavy as his opponent, Is older
and taller. He has had some experience
in the ring In California, which gives him
a slight advantage. He is putting himself
in the best possible trim for Sunday night.

John T. Baker. attorney for P. N. Han
sen, r. Ryland and John Tore, has filed
with the County Clerk a demurrer to the
complaint Of M. D. Foley against the
County Commissioners or their bonds
men. 1t cites that the complaint Of the
plaintiff does not state facts sufficient to
constitute a cause Of action, for the rea-
son that said complaint does not show
wherein and for what reason the Board of
County Commissioners as named in said
complaint acted illegally, or in what man
ner they exceeded their jurisdiction. And
upon the face Of said complaint the plain
tiff does not show that he has a legal ca
pacity to sue in the action, and the action
should be brought on the relation of the
Attorney General Of the State or the Dis
trict Attorney of the County of Eureka,
and it is not shown that either of those
officers refused or were requested to act in
the premises.

cannot look at it save in awe OF the Great

The Eureka Con. Flood.

Jumbo" does not make the Roadway
that was expected Of him In getting the
water out Of the LOGAN shaft, but this does
not appear to be his fault. 1t seems that
the pump columns are too deep down in
the water, and they will have to be raised
and then lowered a. the water subsidies.
To raise the columns will take "a hours.
While the pumps were working there was

sires to make greater Roadway and has no
doubt already commenced the work OF

An appropriation of 100000 will
be enough to complete the work.
