JEFFRlES VS.. FITZSlMMONS.

Boston, Feb. 19.-James J. COrbett
gives the following opinion OF the com
ing battle between JeffrieS and FltZ-
simmons:
"Of course, Jeffres should be the
favorite, being young, strong and the
champion, but l look to see FtZsim-
mons give him hard fight. You can
rely upoi, it that when he steps into the
ring he will be in the very best possible
condition. FitZslmmons always trains
carefully for fight. and he has won
many fight because he was In better
condition than his opponent. Fltzsim-
mons says he is AZ years old, and we do
not know just how much older he is,
but his age does not cut any figure IN
my opinion. He is the best man to
put against Jeffries because be certain
ly is great fighter. There is no doubt
that Fitz has the punch. I ought to
know, and l believe his punch is as
strong as ever. He is not a scientific
fighter any more than Jeffries is and he
will fight Jeffries just as he fought him
before, walk right in and mix it with
him. He may sneak one i'm on Jeffries'
jaw and put him away. / do not look
to see Fltzsimmons change his style of
fighting after all of these years. although
he is a fox. The fight ought to 60
about ten rounds. alth ough 1t would not
surprise me if Jeffries should win soon
er. The longer the fight the less I be-
lieve Fltzsimmons' chances would be.
FitZsimmOns has chance-a better
chance than any of Jeffries' recent an
tagonIsts."

Pneumonia and Bronchitis.

: In this season when Pneumonia,
Bronchitis, sore throat and other all

The Way She Told 1t.
Rams Horn:

lm's Horn:
Said Gossip One to Gossip Two,
In confidential talk,
Last night quite late heard a man
Go up Mis- Browns front walk;
Of course don't know who it was
And really do not care.
But please don't mention it. because
It's none of my affair."
Said Gossip Two to Gossip Three.
IF remember right,
They say some mana stranger here
Called on Mis- Brown last night;
I've heard it hinted more than once
But don't repeat it, pray
Thai she's inclined to f1irt bit
When Mr.. Browns away"
Said Gossip Three to Gossip Four,
Il s'pose. of course. you know,
For it's in eyerybOdy's mouth,
About Mis- Browns fine beau?
1t looks supicious, certainly,
The dreadful things hear,
And never must we tell it,
For she's such darling dear"
Said Gossip Four to Gossip Five,
I've heard the greatest news!
They say that Mr.. Brown
Had better mind his P's and O's:
Her actions are just scandalous-
And he's too blind to seel
But don't for all the world repeat
A word that comes from me"'
Said Gossip Five to all of them,
II called on Mrs. Brown,
To give hint about the talk
That's going on In town;
But really had not the heart
To do SO mean a trick,
When she announced
That last night late,
Her husba nd came home SICK

For the benefit of those who would

York relates the following THE

thrifty the example of the Missou-

taken zeal of his doctors had not
disturbed him. Our next sleeper is a
Trenton man who has slumbered for
two weeks. 1t is great gift to be
able to draw upon the reserve fund
of sleep. To sleep at will as the
Corsican did is to have a genius for
happiness. The bore begins to drone;
off go you to the popped lands. To
be a long -distanced sleeper is to have
a genius for political economy and
finance. 81 have called to see about
that little bill. " II am very sorry,
but Mr., Smifkins is taking a two
months sleep. Call again in Octo-

sleeping by the week or month avoids
expense and is a savings bank

long and to the mill the elevation is
3, 900 feet below the terminus at the

Among the most frequent difficulties

Weak batteries, damp spark coils,

action of the engine, that he will be
able to readily detect the source of
the trouble and tell its remedy.
When he does become familiar with

THE EXTENSION QUESTION.

The People of Denison must now
consider seriously the subject of the
extension of the city limits There
are strong arguments both for ard
against the proposition. The annex
atlon1sts urge three reasons which APP
pear to US as valid and good, The first
is that Denison should be in posi-
tlon to take credit for all that it
actually is, this appeals to civic pride
There are large number of people
living just outside the present corpor-
alton limits who gain their livihood in
Denison, and who should in all fairness
be counted with Denison's population.
The figures would look better in the
census returns. it would hasten the
day OF free city delivery and would
give added Importance to the town.
Denlson has an actual population of
ABOUT 5000, the last census gives US less
than 30C0. The second and third
reasons are economic ones. According
to the law the constitutional limit OF
- y ~ oiiS'9S 10 y per cGuU. OF uue as
sessed valuation. benson has already
exceeded this If the valuation were
Increased as it would be by enlarging
the city limits. we would soon be in a.
position to refund the debt and instead
OF paying per cent, it is the opinion
OF bankers with whom we have talked
that the debt could be carried for 4 1-2.
This would mean several hundred dol
lars year. The third reason advanc
ed is that there is mucn property lying
adjacent to Denison which derives
largely added value from that fact. 1t
is base of "unearned increment" and
the owner should be compelled to pay
his snare for the public Improvements
which add so largely to his land values.
This is just proposition and can be
combatted only for selfish motives
Stillan other reason urged is that the
police limits are too small That tramps
and buns camp on the very edge of
town and are there able to defy the city
authorities. Should the limits be ex-
tended, the city peace officers would
be able to break up these hobo camps
which are danger to life and property
Those opposed state that the extension
will bring added possibilities and
expenses which will more than make
up for the increased taxes. That
water mains must be extended, electric
lights put in, bridges maintained,
roads improved etc. Sc far as we have
learned, this argument is being made
by those owning property which would
be included in the new limits, if they
We're absolutely sure that they we're to
receive more benefits than they would
be asked to pay for, we should think
they would favor the extension The
subject is one worthy the attention of
of every citizen and should call out d
full vote.

THE ODD FELLoWsPICNIc

The picnic given by the Odd Fellows
at Manila on Wednesday last drew
a good sized crowd to that thriving
little town. Early in the morning
visiting members and people from the
surrounding country began arriving
and by ten O'Clock the streets were
we'll lined with visitors. The beautiful
park situated conveniently close TO the
business center of the city was bower
Oh shade. Seats had been arranged to
accommodate the many people during
the day and many were thpse who so
found rest beneath the welcome shade
trees. The principal address was de-
livered by Rev. d. A. Allen, of Dunlap
and was said to have been a
master piece of beautiful words and
thought. All during the day the
Manila band, furnished music to the
d light of everyone. The organization
Is credit to the town and receives
much encouragement. Manila is we'll
supplied with hotels and. eating houses
and no one IN attendance at the picnic
went hungry. After the dinner hour
the races were pulled Off and proved
quite exciting. There were foot races,
potatoe races, boys races, girl races,
sack races, bicycle races. in fact all
kinds of races, and every one enterel
with vim. At four o'clock the BALL
game was called. The game was be-
tween Earling and Vail and the prize
was purse of s25. The Earling boys
were too much for the Vallites and at
the emo of the fourth inning the score
was FIVE or SIX to one in favor of Earl
ing. In the evening a grand ball was
given in the Germania hall to which
there was large attendance.
Sidonia lodge from Denison sent a
good delegation over and there were
|alsoa a number of Denison citizens in
attendance.
