as robust and powerful as ever and with
the exception of a few silvered locks, which
are very noticeable on his forehead, there
seems to be no change in his
former self. 1t is no exaggeration to say
that the big fellow never looked filter in
his life, and unless appearances are decep-
tive he would, with little training to re-
duce surplus flesh, be in condition TO fight
the battle of his life. His eyes are bright
and his cheeks look firm and rosy. There
Is not a mark of dissipation in his face,
and his step is firm and elastic, as il was
on that memorable July day in Mississippi
when he knocked Jake Kilrain's chances
OF championship honor into a cock-hat.

hearty smile, and looked the very picture
of healthy good nature Il was evident.
IN factffroTn his active appearance that he
was not only in pleasant mood, but was
in splendid physical condition. In spite
of the few gray locks that showed about
his temples, there was no indication of de-
terioration, and every movement was as
agile as cat. His most noticeable point.
however, was his back, and every one who
saw il gave vent to an involuntary excla-
nation OF SUNRISE

PORTLAND, May so.-lspecial. THOSE
working for consolidation have hit upon a
scheme that viii make repeaters fight shy
OF the polling-places on election day next
Monday. They have corralled every kodak

This precaution may make the
political hucksters think twice before
voting twice. Every possible precaution
is being taken to prevent fraud, and If
consolidation is defeated it will be either
because the Observation-Disclosures will
take possession of the polls early in the
morning or because they will buy enough
votes to offset the votes of the CONSOLE
