Perhaps some friend Of yours is TAX
ing a newspaper regularly now that
costs too much, or happens to be I'M
satisfactory in some other way. Per
haps the advantages of The Times
(morning, evening and Sunday haven't
yet been presented to him There are
advantages in The Times, undoubted-
ly. Its editions reach you twice a day;
and they reach you, not twenty-four
hours apart, but twelve hours apart,
and you feel that you are keeping
posted. You feel that you are getting
the news of the world as soon as il
has happened, and not a day or two
late. Then its cost is very small-a
cent for each edition Of the daily, and
cents for the Sunday paper. But the
article isn't cheap simply because it
is inexpensive. IL is thorough, com
plete, hOmelike. fearless, wholesome,
even though il is somewhat smaller
than some of the other papers.

| CarsonClty, New, March lit is reported
on good authority that Assemblynan Timo-
| thy Dempsey, who was one OF the most
ardent supporters of the boxing bill, is
| going to introduce bill in the State leg
islature, now in session, within the next
| Few days, asking for an appropriation of
$4,000, for the purpose of having made
| gorgeous belt of silver, with diamond
studding, to be presented to either Corbett
or f1tZsmmons, whichever chances to lie
winner OF the great battle. The bill is
being drawn up at the present time, and it
provides that the secretary OF state shall
deliver the belt on the 18th OF March,
along with certificate and affidavit no
ufying the world of the significance of the
trophy. 1t Is intended to have on the
belt reproduction OF the official seal of
Nevada and a fac siuile of Gov. Sadler's
signature TO and approval of the measure.
1t is said that the governor has already
given his consent TO sign the bill IL it
passes.
There is runor in the air that the
Nevada legislature Will have ten days
extra session with the idea of indulging
in legislation, which, IL carried out, will
make Nevada a sporting paradise. The
idea is to make the State general rem
devious OF the wealth sporting men, where
they can have all kinds OF gambling, horse
racing, prZefighting, wrestling and other
amuscments, which make life agreeable
to men who like that sort Of thing. Those
who voted against the prizefight now admit
that it has brought large amount OF
money into the State and an orderly class
OF people, instead OF crowds of inpecunioIs
toughs that was expected by the oppo-
ncnts of the measure.
The attempt Of Congress to prevent prize
fighting news going over the wires does
not seem to have bothered any one. Cor
bctt says if Congress would pay more at
tention 10 preventing the shedding OF blood
OF Americans and patriots in Cuba, he
will guarantee to take ca re not 10 have his
nosebleedn Carson and FitZsimnions thinks
il Congress would regulate the big mo-
nopolies they would not have so much time
to attend the grand stand reforms in
Nevada.
Yesterday Corbett and JeffTies went
over to the handball court for a quiet little
go, and denied admission to the usual
crowd Of visitors. This bout was ''Cork-

The admirers OF Fitzsimmons in this city
yesterday were eager to back the champion
at prevailing Odds Eddie Collins bet $500
to Sl6o on Corbett with Charley Levan.
Collins says he has $500 more to wager at
the same odds. jess Brown, Providence
man, has 81 200 to place on Corbett at
odds OF 10 to 8. Dick Roche says that he
has placed all OF the SAC, 900 commission
on Fitzsimnons and willnot tinvest any more
until he reaches Carson. Jerry Golden, Of
Harlem, who is staunch admrer Of FitZ-
simmons, placed two large BEES at 8 TO 10
on the champion. Fred Taral says that his
determination to wager $4,000 on Fitz-
simmons at to 2 still holds good.

III moment dazed, but he pulled himself to-
gether Just in time TO slip away from
Jeffries as the latter came in again.
Jeffr:es followed Corbett into the center
OF tic court, and essayed TO throw in an
osher left, similar 10 the ore which sent
the champion against the wall.
Jim was on the alert. He ducked the
blow. and, quick as flash, shot his right
out for O cross counter. The blow caught
Jefferies flush on the jaw and he sank to
his knees. The young fellow recovered in
about three minutes and confessed that he
had been in a trance Then they went at
it again with Jerferies more savage than
ever He hustled Corbett around the ring
until the latter for self protection let
fly a hook that connected with the Los
Angeles mans chin and sent him reeling
away.
Fitzsimm ons' cold seems to have left
him entirely with the approach Of warmer
weather. He keeps cheerful and conf
dent and eats heartily OF everything that
is placed before him. Julian has decided
that from now to the time OF the fight
none of the party at Cooks shall drink
anything but mineral water. Eight dozen
cases were taken out To the quarters yes
terday and another consignment is on

The gaudy punching bag apparatus, sur
mounted by silk flags OF a coZCn nations,
was strengthened up this morning by the
addition OF lion braces. When FitzSin-
mons goes to work in earnest at bis IA
vorite pastime the strength OF his blows
seems to Jerk the steel legs from the
flooring OF the pavilion. He says they
can put the braces there if they want to,
