London, March IA week that
opened with a budget increasing the
burden of the British taxpayer to an
almost unprecedented extent and ended
with the queen stirring hundreds of
thousands of her subjects to enthusi-
astic demonstrations of patriotism and
war fervOr can scarcely be said to be
barren of interesting circumstances. II
would perhaps be giving Lord salisbury
and his cabinet too much credit to say
that the sudden springing of the bud
get with its enormous deficit and the
quickly planned visit of the queen to
London almost before the people had
time to realize how much the war was
costing them, were part and parcel of
a mastery understanding of politics
which under the cloak of academic
lethargy is keenly alive to every chance
OF the moment
But, whatever were the motives
prompting the governments actions
and the queen never moves without
consulting Lord Salisbury they. result
ed most favorably. No suspicion of po-
litical generalization has married the
heardness Of the queens welcome,
though the Irish have not proved quite
so ingenious in commenting on her pro-
posed visit to their shores Still, on the
whole the recent actions of the queen,
her decision to remain home instead Of
going TO Italy. her projected trip to the
emerald isle and her generous recogni-
ton of the gallantry Of the Irish troops
combined with the victorious progress
of Lord Roberts, have once more put
the United Kingdom on excellent terms
with itself

A large number of Salt Lakes lead
ing sporting men viii be very deeply
panied at learning that a lively set-to
was pulled off altogether in private the
other night. The mill was so entirely
impromptu that it would have been
impossible to pass the tip around even
had the cOmbatants desired the general
pubic to witness the encounter.
Councilman Robertson and Canning
were the active belligerents and the
I battle was fought in one Of the commit
tee rooms adjacent to the council
chamber Unlike their Kentucky Han
matte brethren, the Salt Lakers did
not bring any guns into play. Instead
/ they used their dukes" in the good
old fashioned style.
Result of an Argument.
1t all came about as the result Of an
argument over the propriety Of an an
preparation fer lettering the city's wa
ter supply. Robertson is one of the
councllmen who thinks the city engin-
eer can do no wrong. Canning differs
decidedly from his colleague He holds
that the city engineer is human and
therefore liable to commit error as
the sparks fly upward"
One word brought another on as is
usually the case when cOuncilmen or
other mOrtals engage in debate Finally
the esteemed city law makers began
INDUCING in personalities. They told
eich other just exactly what they
thought Of each other and the opinions
expressed were not exactly parliament
tary. Finally all friendship ceased in
dead, hard earnest.
Robertson lead with his left and
landed lightly IN (raunfnorfef lon No..
ming cOuntered with a right hook on
Rob's head and moment later ducked
INTO a vicious uppercut that Fent his
brain pan back with great SUD zeuness.
Both men were grOgSy but game and
the battle went merrily on.
Canning Hurts His Hand.
After folding for an opening Can
ming thought he saw one. He swung
Tor the point of Rob's jaw but the mar
from the Fifth ducked and Canning
hand came in violent contact with tt.
top of RObeTtsOn's head. Some peoD.
may not believe it. but Robs head was
harder than Cannings hand and the
latter came out second best
In spite Of the disadvantage of a dis
aDled init Canning was ready to con-
tinue the engagement to a decision but
the spectators interfered and the bout
was declared a draw. Ever since Can
ming has ben carrying his hand in a
sling. Robertson came out of the en-
counter without any visible marks of
damage, but his feelings were reported
as being terribly Iacerated.
Admirers of the COunCilmen are in
sisting that they secure a secluded spot
and reach a decision as to which is the
better man. Neither would have any
