FIrz STILL TALKING.
He Claims to Have PurposeIy Pro-
Ionged the Carson City Fight.

Fitzsimmons is still talking. In a
recent interview he declares: There
has never been any contention on my
part that I knocked Corbett out On
the contrary, he quit like a cur in the
fourteenth round, and that is all there
is about it. He was strong on his
hands and feet all the time the referee
was counting out the ten seconds which
were wrestling the championship from
him. and then he tried to wrench my
head off my shoulders by sheer force
after the fight.
zone thing may be set down as GER
tain. Corbett will never have a chance
to do battle with me again until he
proves himself to be first-class fight
er and not a knocker out Of stale pug
lists like John L. Sullivan and Charlie
Mitchell. There was never a time in
the fight at Carson City that Corbett
had the slightest advantage over me,
and we'll he knew it. The first blow
that he struck me In the first round
showed he had no steam behind him,
and I chuckled to myself throughout
the entire encounter that I had my
man completely at my mercy, and as
soon as it was necessary would give
him the punch I had up my sleeve.
"There is no question in my mind
that If had started Corbett for Queer

there would have been an old time

played foxy on him all through and
let him and his friends think that he
had me going. At no time was I even
dazed by the force of Corbett's blows,
and in that sixth round I could have
just as well got UP on my feet after
one had been counted as to have wait
ed for six, seven or eight. That was
part Of my plan of campaign. to let
the blood stop running from my nose
and mouth and bluff my opponent into
thinking I was on the down grade. 1t
is comical to me, now that the thing
is all over, when 1 reflect how easy
Corbett was after the bluff that had
been put UP in his behalf"

Most Musical Family

Beyond all question, the Bachs were not only
the most musical family that ever lived, but
ample Of heredity that has so far been dis
covered. says the London Mail. Their history
can be traced for over two centuries. The
first of the family known as musician was
Veit Bach. miller by trade. born in 1850
From him there steady descent of mus
teal sons, grandeons. great-grandsons, etc., all
of whom were not only musicians, but mu-
cestors. until the musical lsinated in
John Sebastian Bach, who Is described as the
greatest Of the older German composers. He
died in 1850, but he left four sons, all of
whom attained emnence in the musical world :;
but after them the musical vein appears to
have obeyed the usual evolutionary law in
such cases, and to have worked Itself out.

DR. Williams Pink Pills are not
looked upon as a patent medicine, but
rather as a prescription. An analysis
of their properties shows that they
contain, in condensed form, all the ele-
ments necessary to give new life and
richness to the blood and restore shat
tered nerves. They are an unfailing
specific for such diseases as locomo
tor ataxia, partial paralysis, st. Vitus'
dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism,
nervous headache, the after effects of
la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale
and sallow compilations, and the tired
feeling resulting from nervous prostra
ton, all diseases resulting from vitiate1
humors in the blood, such as scrofula,
chronic erysipelas, etc. They are also
a specific for troubles peculiar to fe
males, such as suppressions, Irregular
tiles and all forms of weakness. They
build up the blood, and restore the
glow of health to pale and sallow
cheeks. They are for sale by all drug

The Arlx's Measurements Do Credit
to His Skill as a Snflor
At recent meeting Of the Bristol Chan
mel center of the Institute Of Marine Engi-
neers, Mr.. Aisbitt gave a comparison Of
the dimensions of Noah's rk with vessels
of the present day, and stated that for sail
ing ships the dimensions of the ark could
hardly be excelled, says Answers. For steam
ers, If one or two breadths were added to
the length for machinery space, they would,
he said, arrive at some of the best proper
tlons acknowledged for present trans Atlantic
steamers. AS to the ark, there is no doubt
that Noah must have been an exceptionally
good naval architect, as we are, at the end
Of the nineteenth century, building vessels
Of practically the same dimensions. it hav-
ing been demonstrated that they are better
sea boats than, and have superior sailing
qualities to, vessels of different proportions.
1t is a matter Of history that in the early
part Of the seventeenth century a man Of
the name of Peter Hans, of Rome, built two
ships after the model or proportions of the
ark. These vessels were, as might be imag-
ined, objects of ridicule and scorn at the
time, but experience demonstrated that they
carried more cargo than vessels of similar
tonnage measurement, but different Gimen-
sions and, in addition, made quicker passages.

it was discovered that the woman was
a victim of the terrible disease of lep-

then isolated from the rest Of the

be kept at the hospital until arrange

MINING NEWS.

Mohave Miner. It is reported in Kingman that the White Hills com pany has struck an immense body of water in the Treasure mine, and to clinch the matter an ore body of sufii- cient magnitude to keep the new forty stamp mill pounding away for year or two has been blocked out.
 Citizen: NIT. E. Randolph today deposited with the Con. National Bank gold bullion to the value of s3.OOO, the result of five days run on ore from the King of Arizona mine. This is somewhat under the average, owing to the extreme bad weather, interfering with the hauling of the ore from the mine to the mill.
 Graham Bulletin: The Steeple rock Development company at Car lisle are running their mill on ore from the Jim Crow mine in which a most important rich strike was re- gently made, four foot vein of high grade ore being encountered. The company shipped three good sized gold bricks from Duncan last week.
 Star: Messrs. Doherty x Doyle have a large body of high grade ore developed in their mine on Helmet Peak, from which they will ship several car loads of ore carrying from sTO to $50 in gold per ton, besides the silver and lead, showing that Olive Camp ores don't depend entirely on silver and lead for valne.
 Star: The development on the San Xavier is going on satisfactorily. Nearly all the water has been pumped out of the old workings. Several tons of ore have been sent to the Univer- sity for testing it's best working pro- cess. Another shipment has been sent to the Saginaw to test it in the concentrators. The new owners are very much pleased with the prospects from there

It is difficult to distinguish one from the other. As far as the development work has gone here the rock appears to be firm and in continuous stratas which will allow large blocks to be taken out in an almost perfect state.

THE BEST REMEDY FOR RHEU
MATISM

From the Fairhaven On. V Register.
Mr.. James Rowland, of this village
states that for twenty-five years his
wife has been sufferer from rheu-
matism. a few nights ago she was in
such pain that she was nearly crazy.
She sent Mr.. Rowland for the doctor,
but he had read of Chamberlain Pain
Balm, and instead of going for the ply
sician he went to the store and secured
a bottle of it. His wife did not approve
of Mr.. Rowland's purchase at first, but
nevertheless applied the Balm thor
oughly, and in an hours time was able
to go to sleep. She now applies it when
ever she feels an ache or pain, and
finds that it always gives relief.
He says that no medicine which she
has used ever did her as much good.
