FIGHTS AND FIGHTERS.
Kid Parker and Jack o'Brien Have a
 Lively Bout.


 Denver, Col, Aug 1.-The much talked of bout between Kid Parker, Denver's favorite boxer, and Jack ,O'Brien, the well known New York lightweight, has at last taken place. It was fought in Parker's restaurant this morning, and the contest was q peppery one. O'Brien went to Par ker's place of business to discuss ar engagements for their bout. O'Brien was impatient and wanted the affair right away.
 Now, see here, Kid,' said O'Brien, whats the use of waiting? Let's go in training and have the mix-np this summer"
 Not on your life,' said Parker. q haven't the time to train now, as 1 am ill business. Wait until next winter and 1 will fight you to a finish"
 .The trouble with you, Kid, said 0'Brien, lis that you are yellow. Let's fight this summer.
 Well, if all you want is a fight, l can give it to you now,' said the Kid, and the battle was on.
 O'Brien opened hostilities by hook ing left to Parker's jaw, which dazed the Kid. Parker retaliated by mixing it and several hot exchanges ensued! Both men clinched and were rolling on the floor rough and tumble fashion when Billy Edwards, Parker's man ager, separated the contestants. The two fighters then shook hands and agreed to postpone the official fight until a later day.

W Rl lGla 6 POOR s| AzlllIMl5 -

Itching Piles is one of the most persistent plaques that the world has ever known. Men and women, old and young, rich and poor suffer alike, and for ages it was generally believed that there was no cure for the exasperating malady. Now and then preparations have ap- peared that would relieve the itchiness temporarily, but that was all. There seemed to be absolutely no real cure.
 That is all changed now, however. Deans Ointment will cure Piles, whether itch- ing, protruding or. bleeding. It is also a safe and absolutely sure cure foryeczerna and all other itching diseases of the :, skin. Doan's Ointment is q pleasant, harmless and abso- lutely sure remedy for all itch ing diseases of the skin.

In proof of it we te1what those who have used-it say.
 MT. Patrick Nolan, of No. I2S Railroad Avenue, Bridge port, Conn. says: ssTo any one troubled with any form of ir- ritation of the skin, I can with confidence recommend Doan's Ointment. I was for long time bothered with persistent irritation on my body and none of the many preparations and ointments I used did me any good until I procured Doan's Ointment at a Drug Store and applied it. It was so soothing and healing, and acted so promptly that felt relief from the first, and improved steadily. It, is the best remedy for ir- ritation of the skin there is on the market. !"
 Just such emphatic endorse ment can be had right here in Waterbury. Drop into Lakes drug store and ask what his customers report.

Fatal sunburn.

.s It is contendeds by physicians that . if two-thirds of the body be burned badly the sufferer will die from the effects The skin which has been se- lverely burned is unable to throw off perspiration. The pores are, tempo rarily at least, closed, and the i'm lpurities of the body which should escape in this way are confined in the body. It is believed that if two thirds of the pores be closed this poi son will prove fatal. The disease is known as auto-toxication or self-poi- soning.-N. Y. World.

DECISION AGAINST DIXON.


 Denver, Col, Aug IT. .7----'. Young" Cor bett of Denver, was given the decision at the end of a ten=round fight with George Dixon, former featherweight champion, here last night. The fight was the fastest seen here in some time. While Corbett was the aggressor at all times, Dixon punished him severely and from the fifth round to the finish Corbett's face was bathed in blood. In the seventh, ninth and tenth rounds Dixon was badly punished by Cor bett's persistent jabbing to the ribs Dixon showed his old time form when it came to blocking, but he fought a defensive battle all through. He was willing to mix it with his sturdy op- ponent, however, and nearly always broke even with the infighting.

GROTkSQuE DElrlES.
by Pacific Islanders Are Queer . % sf4s5 Works of Art.

As ethnographic studies, it is sal- legged that few specimens of primi- tive art are more valuable than the oddly sculptured efhgies of war gods which were at one time regarded with such awe blythe 8atiges ef Hawaii, New Zealand and tcei;tatn other coun- tries. The reason is, because on many of these figures, grotesque though they seem to us, various human emo 'tio11s are finely, if rtdely. portrayed.
Waterbury Democrat., 1901-08-17

A fine collection of these war gods has just been made by scientist.
 In Hawaii the effigies were made of the roots of osier and were adorned with red feathers from the bird known as s'viiwi." and with yellow and black feathers from the bird known as .'oo." Iu 1900 these birds had become so rare that a law was passed prohibiting anyone from killing them, and or daining that those caught alive should be released after the necessary feath- CTS had been carefully plucked from them.
 Various emotions were expressed by these war gods. Thus one, not able for his horizontal eyes, his open mouth and his sharp teeth, expresses calm ferocity; and second, distin- guished by his dropping lips and his enormous eyes, expresses sadness.
