The performance of the men was so
grotesque that roars of laughter greeted
their efforts. No serious harm was done
until the bell tapped for the sixth round,
in which after heavy exchange Neise
was floored by hard hook under the

the Utah man, who, seeing bis advantage,
planted terrific right hand swing to the
head. bringing Neise to the floor, his
head striking with dull thud. He was
carried from the ring in an unconscious
state and physicians summoned.

ring and after fighting two rounds with
honors even were stopped by the police

the ore some four miles down the river
in order to work it, but now the ten

been purchased, together with the water
rights that go with it. Ten more stamps
will be added, making the mine the
cheapest working property in the State
