Great Run on a well-known Instltntlon.

The famous Patent Medicine Warehouse

A Sudden Death Which Called for an
Investigat ton.

Coroner Campbell yesterday after
room held an inquest upon the remains
of Miss Laura A. Jordan, 35 years old,
who died suddenly Saturday evening

on Olive street between Fifth and Sixth

Jordan, was called, but the woman had
been dead half an hour when he arrived.

THE LATE J. B. GLOVER.
He Had a Daughter Residing in This
City-The Funeral Today.

J. B. Glover, the old soldier who was
crushed to death by a fire truck on Main
street Saturday night had a daughter
living in this city. At the time of his
.death he was not supposed to have any
relatives in the state. Papers were found
on his person, however, showing that he
was a member of the G. A. R., Odd Fell
lows and also the Masonic lodges. A
card showed that he belonged to the Ma
sonic lodge at Gordon, Neb. Yesterday
morning f. Hines of Orr & Hines, under
takers, who have charge of the body,
telegraphed to S. S. Joyce, who is com
mander of the lodge at Gordon, inquir-
ing for information concerning the rel
atives of j. r. Glover In response he
was told that Glover had daughter liv-
ing al 553 South Broadway. Mr.. Hines
Immediately called at the number given
and found Miss Clara Glover. She had
not seen the account of her fathers
tragic death printed in the newspapers,
and did not know that he was in the
city. When Mr.. Hines broke the news to
her she was almost Frustrated with

FLOATING IN THE OCEAN.
Body of an Unknown Man Found at

terday afternoon discovered the body OF
a man floating in the water at the end Of
the long wharf. The corpse was fisheG

An inquest was held upon the remains
at Santa Monica last evening. The
body was that of man perhaps so
years of age, well dressed and smooth
shaven From appearances the body
had been in the water about ten days
One of the fingers of the left hand had
been bitten off by fishes, but otherwise
the body showed no marks of violence.
There was nothing found in the pock-

perknife, no papers nor anything which
would tend to establish the identity

the wharf, and it is a mystery how he
met his death. Possibly he was robbed

THE RING.

IF one were to size up the coming con-
test between Sharkey and Fitzsimmons
by drawing deductions from recent bat
ties. it would make Fitzsimmons a
"cinch," says the sporting editor of the
Chronicle. Choynski and SSarkey fought
a draw. Then Maher, twice defeated
by Fitzsimmons,. gets in and beats
Choynski in six rounds. This line of
reasoning is often very faulty, how
ever, for there are many different con-
ditions to be considered Choynski un-
dertook to stop Sharkey in given
number of rounds, consequently the
sailor did not fight on the aggressive.
Then, again. .Sharkey has improved won-
derfully since meeting Choynski, and his
four-lound contest with Corbett DEM
onstrated that he is most formidable
opponent, Notwithstanding that he is
not scientific boxer by any stretch of
the imagination.
There has been a whole lot said about
Corbett's lack of condition when he met
Sharkey, but it is all bosh. Corbett was
in very fair condition for four-round
contest. He fought contrary to his usual
style. He cut out a furious pace and
banged Sharkey all over the ring for
two rounds and half but the pace was
too fast, even for a worlds champion,
and, to use race horse expression, he
stopped to walk in the last part of the
journey. 1t was the terrific pace that
killed off Corbett, and not lack of con-
dition. If there had been a fifth round
that night Sharkey must have won, as
Corbett was greatly distressed.
Fitzsimmons can be expected to make
an altogether different kind of fight.
He does not send in succession of light
blows that do not cut any figure one way
or the other, but waits for good open
ing, and then lets fly with all his force.
Fitzsimmons has been known to fail
to take advantage of an opening the
first, but never the second time. Lanky
Bob enjoys the reputation of being a
very hard hitter. The number of men he
has knocked out bears out this fact.
but it will have to be an awful smash
that will lay Sharkey low on the night
of December I'd.
Sharkey will 60 into the coming fight
with the greatest confidence in his abil-
ity to stay the necessary ten rounds.
If Sharkey should happen to beat Fitz-
simmons it would place him at the top
Of the pugilistic ladder.

clubs does not offer a purse for a ten
round contest between Jimmy Anthony
of Australia and Jack Ward of New

TRAP AND TRIGGER.

The following letter from Salem, Ore.
is self-eXplanatory:
About November 1st the statement
was published in the Oregon press that
eleven professional hunters had this
season killed fully 1000 deer in the Elk
creek and Rogue river country, lying
across the line of Douglas and Jackson
counties, this state. Accoring to this
statement the men killed these numbers
respectively: 200, $50, 125, 125, $780, 125.
80, II, and 100 to three other men. These
numbers were only casually mentioned
to impress one with the belief that deer
were numerous, but it was said fully
twice that number had been killed by
hunters. These deer were killed solely
for market?
Words fail one to comment on a state
of affairs like this. Too much cannot be
said on the subject, and yet what can
be done TO stop such slaughter?
What comparison could be drawn be-
tween the states of the Atlantic and the
Pacific coasts. In the former, with a
puny handful of deer, every effort is
made to protect them. Here, with al
most countless numbers, as yet, it seems
the history of the buffalo will be re-
peated.
A New York sportsman sends the fol-
lowing plan to measure length of gun
stocks. He says:
Hold the forearm a right angles to the
upper arm and measure from inside of
elbow to first joint of trigger finger. and
the distance in inches will be the length
of stock required.
Another plan is to hold the arm in the
same position. place the butt ofshe gun
in the bend of the arm, and if the trig-
ger finger is in the right place for press
ing the trigger the stock will be the
proper length.
