for the thought that presented itself on
awakening was that the world was moving
altogether too fast This proved to be only
too true, for the little world of Mr.. and
Mrs. Nelson, represented by the four walls
shelterng them, was surely moving down
hill. They had not long to consider the best
means of exit, for it was a question that
must be decided quickly. The house being
built merely straight up and down, couple

their two little children, one of whom is
only one month old the Nelson's escaped

their night clothes. They were given shell

Dempsey" Parker took each for one round,
and had them all winded at the end of the
work. His wind is good, and he seems to
be in splendid condition. Parker says that
he will make better fight against Thomp-
son next Monday than when they met last
time. He does not have any particular idea
now he will fight, but says he will wait until
they get into the ring before he determines
exactly what sort of battle to make. "You
can tell the public" he said, chat / will

Parker says he is already down to 1877
pounds, the required weight, and may enter
the ring even under this figure as he finds
that he can get much lighter than he ex-
pected and not feel weak as the result.

Orange Growers Not Alarmed

RIVERSIDE, Nov. 25.-The north wind
still continues to blow with great vigor. The
velocity of the wind was greater today
than in any storm experienced here in a
couple of years. What the orange growers
dislike the most about the visitation of old
Boreas is that the indications are that the
blow is far from being over with. All
heavy winds do more or less damage to the
growing orange crop, and while this partic,l-
lar one has not blown any of the young fruit
off the trees, it has doubtless made many
culls, which will later on count on the
wrong side of the ledger for the grower.
