BruiSerS Talk Over
the Last Battle

New York, Aug. blob F'itzsim.
mons sat in his dressing room after his
fight last night with Rubin. somewha,
disfigured, rather weary. very warm
and very happy. Asked what he had
to say about the outcome Of his clas'l
with Rubin, Fitzsimmons said:
Nothing at all. I've got nothing to
say"
Jim Jeffries and Tom Sharkey visited
Fitzsimmons and rendered their cor.
CALCULATIONS. Jeffries promised Fitz.
simmons fight and suggested that II
would be an easy matter to arranGe
the details. To Sharkey Fitzsimmons
said
What do you think of the figh'
Tom? 1t was great, wasn't it?"
1T was hummer" answered shar.
key. the best | ever saw"
did you see how let him hit me
on the jaw half dozen times?" said
Fitzsimmons
We'll. didn't feel his swings. was
just looking for openings and | thinl;
found several"
FitzsimmOns face showed the effects
of some of Ruhlln's punches In the
earlier rounds. He complained of a
difficulty in swallowing. caused by the
contact of his throat and Ruhlin's cl-
bow. Fitzsimmons was tired AM
warm, but hardly more son than his at
tendants.
In signed statement Rubin said:
"Staleness that comes from years
training did as much to make me lose
the fight last night as any blow that
Fitzsimmons struck me. don't want
to detract from Fitzsimmons' fighting
ability. for do not believe the man
lives who can hit harder or more acct
ratcly. But had trained too long. I
knew 1t at the end of the first round
and even before | was hit hard | could
feel the result of too much work. \
good rest will fix me up and | will be
the champion OF the world yet"

FAKE STORY ABOUT KINAU,

There was great scare along tho
wharves Saturday morning. An old
kahuna who had taken few drinks Of
gin, and thought he saw things. spread
the rumor from the Pacific Mail wharf
that the Kinau had gone ashore at Ha-
kalau. AS soon as the story hal
spread far enough people had had
friends aboard the steamer began to
flock in or telephone to the main Office
of the Wilder Steamship Co. The ex-
element kept up until little before
~ noon. when the Kinau was telephon-
ed
The Upolu was the only steamer in
from Hawaii and she brought no news
OF any disaster to the kinau.

power and speed last week. The patrons /
Of the Rock Islands first excursion to
Colorado occupied fourteen of the largest
and heaviest coaches. This was enough,
for two trains to be pulled by ordinary
passenger engines of the day, considering
the speed required. The big engine did
all that was expected of 1t and more. Be-
tween Chicago and Rock Island 1t pulled
that train Of fourteen coaches with ease
on schedule time, and when called on for,
little extra effort developed speed Of
over 70 miles an hour.
Engines of that GLASS will haul all the
special trains which will be used by the
Rock Island In Its series OF Colorado OK
cursions, at the rate Of one.fare plus 90
for the round trip. Three. more excur-
sions will be- given. leaving here July 9th,

tickets will also be honored on all regu-.
lar trains. The special trains to be used.
are high-class throughout. Through din;

from Chicago to Colorado is made with
only one night on the road. Excursion,

LION ATTACKS KEEPER.
A Dangerous Brute on Exhibition at ches
ter Rebels ut Exercise.


Chester, Pa, June 27.--Capt William
Ricardo, the lion tamer with the Bostcck
Show, which Is exhibiting here, was at
tackled by Emerson, the largest and finest
lion In the show, and Is now In the hos
pital, where his injuries are being at
tended to.
The show came here from Wilmington
and the animals were Gagged up for three
days. This made theta lazy and they
were being exercised In the great steel
were two other lions In the ring at the
same time. Emerson showed fight from
the start of the exercise and was beaten
over the head. Mr.. Ricardo then started
for one of the animals, but as soon MS his
back was turned Emerson made q spring
and caught the trainer by the arm at the
wrist. He was beaten of and made q
second spring.
Attendants ran TO the assistance of The
keeper, who, with rare presence of mind,
while the lion had his hand in his mouth,
pulled a revolver from his belt and shot
Emerson in the fleshy part of the leg.
The brute retreated and crouched for
another spring, but the attendants sue.
ceeded in taking the trainer from the
ring before further Injury was done. The
lions were driven to their cages by red
| fire.
Emerson has record of having killed
three men, two while he was owned by
the Hackenback people and one under
Mr.. Bostock, his present owner.
The 23.foot python connected with the
Bostock Show died yesterday. The reptile
was skinned and the hide stretched on
boards and will be preserved. The snake
was monster in circumference and was
| four years old. ss

Interesting Views Expressed by Man In an
Informal Talk.
II shall vote for sheriff, coroner and
Levy Court and let the Legislature go
to -"
Two or three men were discussing poll
tics, and one OF them was heard by an
outsider to make the foregoing forcible
remark. The whole group seemed some
what in accord and amopg the remarks
overheard were these
II think Addicks Is more interested in
the Legislature than in the President"
81 know he Is"
"What's his object in getting to the
United States Senate 7"
"He's made up his mind he will do it,"
"He's made up his mind lie won't be
downed by any opposition"
~ think there's just as smart people in
the State Of Delaware US in any State in
the world"
Speaking of Addicks' gas plant, one of
the speakers remarked that Addicks
wanted to get the Legislature to let him
60 ahead. 1t was suggested that If one
square could be torn up at a time and
completed, there would be no objection,
in the speakers mind, TO allow his COM
pany to come in.
Again touching on the Senatorial con-
test, one of the men said that the attacks
of certain paper had created sympathy
for Addicks. ,5fs

A Brilliant Spectacle In the Eastern Sky
Last lsveping.

brilliancy and distinotness adorned the

to the first. A third was visible for a
short time, and the spectacle was one of
the finest ever seen hereabouts, according
to tradition, t f
After an unusually hot day, a heavy
rain fell between 5.45 and $50 o'clock,
and the high wind which accompanied it
tore branches from trees and did some
damage TO gardens. Trees on Washing

struck an electric light pole on Union
street below Lancaster avenue and
damaged the wires.
