agement said. ave shall even up score
with puritanical Pasadena" And it did.
Shortly after the frosted canvassers quit
Pasadena an article appeared in the local
columns of the Monarch" which for
spleen. calumny and baseness, is probably
without a parallel in the history of
respectable journalism in America.
Without shadow of foundation in fact
this great moral engine related in
detail, accompanied with illustrations,
how most disastrous hurricane had
swept over the fair city leaving almost un-
heard of devastation in its wake. The
illustrations represented buildings, trees
and bridges in a state OF complete collapse
or prostration.
The inhabitants were dumfounded at
these inexcusable and inexplicable false
hoods. Letters by the score were sent to
the paper explaining the "error," under
the impression that the management had
been imposed upon by some irresponsible
employe, but no explanation nor apology
was ever made. Then it began to dawn
upon the citizens that the whole out
rageous lie had been premeditated and
willful. The management had s'got even"
with Pasadena, that was all.

DEATH IN THE BLIZZARD.
Eight Persons Perish During the Recent
Storm in South Dckot1-T Thousands
of Sheep Lost

CHAMBERLAIN. S. OAK, Dec O.
Notwithstanding that more than a week
has passed since the recent blizzard, re-
ports are coming in from remote portions
west of the Missouri River, so or 100
miles from railroad points or telegraph
stations 1t was believed that no loss
of life resulted from the storm in South
Dakota, but the belated reports from the
remote sections referred to show that six
and possibly eight persons perished in
this State. An unknown man and boy
were frozen to death on the BelIfourche
River. The bodies of two men known as
"Scotty" and Bob Carson, who were en-
ployed by John d. Hale of Tilford as
sheepherders, have been found since the
storm. Two white men became bewildered
within four miles of st. Mary's Mission
and are supposed to have been killed by
the storm. Probably the greatest losers
by the blizzards we're the Lewis Bros,
who owned flock of 5000 sheep in the
western part of Nowlin County. They
not only lost 1000 sheep. but William
Lewis himself perished in the blizzard

SHARKEY WAS UNlNJURED.
William Abbott VIII Tell All He
Heard and Saw After the
: or

The swindlers in the Sharkey- -Fitzsim-
mons fight are on the run. Evidence
proving their conspiracy is pi!ing in fast,
and there is every likelihood that the tes-
timony will be SO strong in the morning
when the case comes up again in court
that "Long Green Lawrence and the
clique with him that beat the public will
throw up their hands and accept judg-
ment.
Smiths evidence will be backed up in
the morning by Allen, the other trainer of
Sharkey, and on top of that will come the
testimony of William Abbott.
The latter is thoroughly disinterested in
the matter, excepting that he wants to see
square sport.
He was at the ringside on the night of
the battle and he put q few dollars on the
sharkey end simply because the odds
were alluring.
When Sharkey laid down and made
pretense of being injured Abbott was one
OF the FIRST to assist Lynch and Needham
to carry Sharkey through the crowd.
They eventually reached side room in
the Pavilion, and there verybody else
was excluded.
Abbott, however, got in with the clique
and continued one of the crowd even until
all went to the room in the Windsor
Hotel At tie latter place Abbott's pres
ence was noticed and Danny Lynch asked
him to step out.
During all the time / was with those
people" Abbott stated last night, "Shar-
key was the same as l have ever seen him.
He did not appear to be in pain and he
complained of no foul. He was badly
bruised and cutup about the face. and that
alone seemed to worry him. He never
spoke of any wound or bruise below the
belt. Anyho he acted like man who
was fully capable of walking about, Jump
ing or doing anything else healthy man
could do.
81 propose to do what can to straighten
out this dilemma in behalf of square
sport. don't know Fitzsimmons or the
other faction excepting as public char ac-
ters, and have no interest besides what |
have said in this matter"

Cashier Thomas Burns of the United

Burns was seated for luncheon yester-

How the Examiner Got One Up for

Los ANGELES, CAL, Dec. 9.-Since
Mr.. Hearst's peculiar style of journalism
is under review by the newspapers OF Cali
fornia, it may not be amiss to describe
how that gentleman '.gets even," not
only with individuals and corporations,
but with whole communities which may
have, in an unwilling hour, incurred his

well known, Is one OF the most delightful
spots in all this splendid Southland. Its
peculiar situation as the crown OF the val
ley, which its name signihes has given it
picturesqueness seldom found anywhere
on earth.
Its people are cultured. refined and re-

aminer, nor for years has it been much of
a naper in the southern city.
In short the Examiner was not wanted
by Pasadenans, and the fact was reported
to the liable management" That man
