BOB FITZSIMMONS WINS
Beat Rubin Into lnsensibiIity in
Less Than Six Rounds.-Was
a Fierce Struggle.

New York Aug. 1O-Bob Fitzsim-
mons. ex-champion of the world, met
Gus Ruhlin, th. "Akron Giant" tonight
before the Twentieth Century club at
Madison Square Garden and won by
knocking the Ohioan down aud out in
the sixth round.
Before the fight and for some weeks
past there have been many reports to
the effect that Fitzsimmons was too old
to cope successfully with his younger
opponent. 1t was argured that Fitz's
we'll known knowledge Of the game and
his capability OF hard hitting would not
be able to counterbalance the youth and
strength as we'll as the recently acquired
ring tactics of the Ohio man. Tonight,
however. all this has been changed.
Fitzsimmons did the trick cleanly and
cleverly.
1t was fierce and bloody battle
while it lasted and ut times it looked as
if Rubin would surely get the better Of
the older man, but Fitzsimmons at the
proper time cut loose with his fearful
body blows which finally snuffed out
the Ohio boxers light.
The betting all along had favored
Fitzsimmons, many wagers at the rate
100 to 80 on Lanky Bob being made. To-
night, however, at the ringside, there
WAS a rush Of Rubin money, which
forced the odds to take turn in Ruh-
Inns favor at the rate of 100 to 30. This
state Of affairs did not last long. how
ever, and by the time the men put up
their hands for the opening round they
were favorites at equal money.
Fitz himself conceded about thirty
two pounds to Rubin, and this in itself
was a serious handicap. But as the re-
suit shows, Filz was equal to the task
he had set himself, and won out with
that terrible solar plexus blow, which
whenever it landed shook Rubin from
head to foot.
From the word "go" the men started
in with hurricane like force. Both
were wild at times, but Fitz was always
the quicker to como down. Rubin
clinched a good deal, and for three OF
four rounds was the aggreesor. He
landed some hard straight lefts on Fits
simm ms face and swung his right tc
the body and head with fearful force.
Several Of these blows staggered Fitz
but none Of them landed on the mark, az
Fitz was too shifty.

through cornfield got to shed cart
house and from this place threw two
railroad fuses onto the roof of the house,

1t was not many minutes until the
entire building was in flames, but the
robber made no sign and il he was not
shot by bullet from the many that
were fred from the outside, he found
death in the flames

ing the train robbers.

morning was found watch. two black

do style, had threatened to shoot sever
al farmers who refused to keep them.

tents was valued at $1,000. and will be
paid for by the county. The two citi-
zens. Riggs and Cullins, shot in the
fight in the morning are doing we'll and
will probably recover.

one Of her former prominent citizens
was drowned at some point in the Puget
Sound country.

Mesa County Bank and former owner Of
the Little Book Cliff railway. left Daw-
son some time last winter and came
south into the Puget Sound country.
He was seen there by people from this
city. He at the time said he was going
into the interior Of the country, of the
coast to engage in business.

General interest is still being mani
tested by property owners in the re-
appraisement of the value of real es-
tate for purposes of taxation, as made
by Assessors Helmbright and Max
well. The Register has published fig
ures taken from the books of the as
SCISSORS to show that the r~evaluation
means an increase upon all property,
business and residence, and is by no
means confined to the busiess prop
erty in Clay and Union districts. al
though the proportionate increase is
greater there than in other districts
in the county.
Richie district fell to the county
assessor, who pushed values up higher
than did Mr.. Helmbright. Citizens of
the Eighth ward will probably find
that the proportionate increase upon
residence property there is greater
than upon similar property in other
districts. The following names and
figures are taken as they appear in
alphabetical order on the old and new
occaccpapt hooIc.

out announcing a fair and festival, to
be given February 1924, in the
Seventh street skating rink. Two local
bands are engaged for the occasion.
There will be an admission fee besides
paving to get out. The affair does
not seem to be in sympathy with the
public, and from reports that are cur
rent on the streets there will be more
people stay away than will attend. 1t
is rumored that one or two members
will be fired as soon as the festival
is given.

Mr.. H. +. McGtuern, Of this city. has
received a very interesting letter from
Charles B. Fleming, private in Com
pany e, Twentieth United States IN
fantry, dated Manila, December 18th.
Mr.. Fleming writes that he has very
little to do, as the Fourteenth regiment
Is helping on guard duty.
He states that every man In the
Eighth Army Corps regrets the tragic
death Of General Lawton, who was re-
garded by the soldiers as n OF the
best men in the army. He blames
Lawton's death on the disposition of
the natives to show the white flag by
day and fight by night They yet
manage to pick of one or o of our
officers in every scrap"
Il see by the papers," he continues,
that the United States transports are
going to take all the Spanish soldiers
that are held prisoners back home to
Spain. There are about 1000 here, and
they cannot tell me they have not been
fighting our men, for | am sure that
IS what they have been doing all along.
81 wish something would happen.
We are getting lazy. l am thinging
that we will be in some other war be-
fore we get home. They are not send
ing all these men here to whip a few
negroes. The naval force is being
strengthened, and l expect some big
row before long. We are all ready. I

who is in the Thirtieth infantry band,

THE NEWS FROM CHINA
Efforts to Bring Peking Ministers to

PEACE WORK HANGS FIRE.

Washington, Nov. S.--Additional re-
ports from Mr.. Conger record the prog
.css OF the efforts being made at Peking
TO bring the foreign ministers into agree
ment us to the basis OF negotiations with
China. The department still declines to
make public any OF the details of the de-
liberations of the ministers, and it APP
pears that this reticence is a matter of
international agreement, the purpose be-
ing to avoid presenting any of the differ
ences that may arise from time to time
to the notice Of the Chinese plenipoten-
taries, who might use them TO serve their
own ends.
However, the statement is reiterated
that progress is being made toward sat
isfactory conclusion. and it is hoped that
within short time it will be possible TO
at least initiate the formal negotiations
with Chinese plenipotentiaries.
No advice has vet been received here
