HUNTERS HAVE GOOD LUCK
FIVE BEARS KILLED. IN emil
GRAFTON CANYON.
Five Deer Also Brought Down From
the Canyon-Big Game Near the
City.

The presence of big game in the near
vicinity to Salt Lake has for some time
past been the subject of conversation
among local sportsmen. Deer have been
seen in great numbers near Black
mountain, up City Creek canyon, and
bears have now been discovered at the
head of Emigration canyon. Deputy
Sheriff Ben Harries and Amos Siddo-
way on Thursday brought a mother
and two cubs down to the city, as a
result of a hunting expedition which
they made UP Emigration canyon. They
had quite an exciting time of it, but
their aim was good and the bears are
testimonials which it has been difficult
for doubling friends to put aside.
A. r. Doty, a groceryman of Far
mers' ward, bagged two more bears on
Thursday in the same canyon.
Emigration canyon is not only max
ing a name for itself as a haunt for
bears, but it is also a canyon where
deer hunters may so with good results.
G. J. Culver and George D. Dover yes
terday brought down a magnificent
buck from up the canyon. And they
say that there are more there.

OBSTACLE TO ANNEXATION.
MASS MEETING CALLED &c
TALK TT OVER. M
Assuming of Bond Debt and Division
of School Property In Farmers
Ward May Prevent.

Property owners and residents in the
district bounded by State and Fifth
East streets and Tenth and Eleventh
South who desire annexation to the
city, have encountered an obstacle that
may not be so easily overcome. At the
outset everything promised an early
annexation, but a. complication has
arisen that will require some pretty
good engineering to get over the danger
line.
The people of the district are over
whelmingly in favor of getting within
the city limits and subjecting them
selves to taxation in return for an ex-
tension of the city water mains, street
lights and school advantages as pro-
vided by the Salt Lake board of edu-
cation. The balance of the taxpayers
in Farmers ward are not disposed to
prevent their neighbors i'll the northeast
corner getting under the municipal
wing, but they are moving to ask the
anneXa tionists what is proposed to be
done with the assuming of the bonded
debt of 900 hanging over the entire
Farmers ward school district.
Here Is the Stumbling Block.
1t is represented that fve-eighths of
the taxable property in Farmers is in
the seeding territory, but that only a
third of the school children attend the
Waterloo school. The bonded debt was
created to provide better school accom-
modations for the entire district, and
it is claimed the Waterloo people got
the greater share of the benefits.
For the purpose of ascertaining what
the annexationists propose doing with
their portion of the debt, and how the
school property is to be divided, the
trustees of Farmers district have called
a mass meeting in the Waterloo school
house for Monday evening.
While the law makes the city coun-
ell the arbitrator of the case as between
the petitioners for annexation and the
municipality, the board of education,
which is most vitality interested in the
subject, has no say. Since the Water
loo school building will supply all needs
for three or four years to come in the
district likely to be annexed it is prob
able the board of education will be
asked to assume five-eigihths of the
$4,000 debt, take the Waterloo prop
erty and in addition have the taxing of
100000 more of property brought with
in the city limits

Y. M. C. A VS.. HIGH SCHOOL.
Lively Practice Game at High Schoo
Field.

Quite a good-sized crowd saw the

high school campus" The Christians
mustered but nine men out of their
team, and during the half hour or more
of practice the school boys had much
the best Of 1T. both in offensive and in
defensive work. Groesbeck made an
especially good showing as half back
on the High School team. He runs
very low, follows his interference well
and is aggressive and watchful on the
defense. Dana Smith and Augustus
made the best showing for the Y NJ.

in weight the team viii average up
well with the Collegiates, and they will
certainly outweigh the All Hallows
boys. Under the direction of Mr. Cali

eleven has developed team work that
viii make them hard to beat.
The work of the y. NJ. c. a. team
was scarcelv un to its average. as it
was handicapped by the absence of sew
Grad men behind, and Hence could do
little in the way of offensive work.
Hfu of the old Elks. and recently of
the defunct Salt Lakes, was out and
viii try for guard. Hopfenbeck, also
of the Elks, win try for a position on
the Christian team. Harry Herrick, left

in the line, has been called home to
Chicago, and viii be absent until the
first O. December. His absence will
weaken the line, and Captain Smith is
looking for a man to fill his place.

CHOYNSn DEFEATS RYAN
AUSTRALIAN WAS EASILY OUT.
CLASSED.
Choynski Was the Cleverer and Out
pointed Ryan From the Start
Knocked Out In Eighth.

New York, Oct. 2O.-Joe Choynsk of
California whipped Jimmy Ryan of Aus
tralia in the seventh round of their fight
tonight at the Broadway Athletic club.
ChoynSki was far the cleverer and the
result wasG Spected. Ryan was out-point7
ed from first tap of the gong, and
when tn lockout came Choynski was
as fresh as when he began. RyanS pre-
vious showing with ChOynski. with whom
he stayed twenty rounds, made some peo-
pie bet even money that Ryan would stay
the limit this time. But the even money
never had a possible show when it came
TO hard work.
In the opening round Choynsk kept
nghtlng with the left on the face. and
Ryan remained on the defensive, scoring
only one left-hand punch on the face
Choynsbi Kept jabbing in the second and
the eye and once to the mouth. Ryan
tried 10 do something at close quarters,
but Choyrski blocked every lead.
The third round was simply a repetition
of the second Ryan opened the fourth
with a rush, sending right swing to the
jaw. He then tried a left to the body,
but Joe Strengthened him up with a hard
left 10 the face. Ryan did some clever
lodging. but his attempts to land We're in
effectual.
In the fifth Ryan swung his right to the
ribs, but after that he did not land a
clean punch while Joe kept up a con-
tinuous jabbing of lefts on the face.
Ryan began with a. straight left on
the face in the sixth and they exchanged
left swings on the head. Joe jabbed a
left to the mouth and nose, drawing a
little blood. Ryan fought gamely but his
face was badly battered when he returned
to his corner, where they mixed it up
early in the seventh. but Choynski sent
his opponent to the floor with a right on
the jaw. Ryan got up inside the limit,
but Went down again from another right
on the mark. After reviving from this
blow Ryan saved himself from being
counted out by a clean margin, but when
he regained his feet he was so groggy
that there was no possible chance of his
fighting any longer. ChoynsN Went to
him without seconds delay and swung
his right once TO the mark and Ryan
went down on his hands and knees. He
lay in that position as if he were para
lived. The referee counted the Austral-
ian out and declared Choynski the win
ner. Time of round, 2:35.

conveyed in the complaint their home
life has been far from happy Mrs

ened to injure and even to kill her
many times. She claims, also, that
he has beaten his wife and has, in
many ways, treated her cruelty. She
asks that he be placed where he can do
no harm.

He pleaded not guilty, and his bond
was fixed at $3.50. which he furnished
with the names of j.. j. Coranr and p
F. Christensen affixed. The trial will
