City Council Passes a Regis
 tratiOn Ordinance.
REGULATES VOTING
A Second Ordinance Introduced Pro- vides for the Closing of Saloons On Election Days From 6 am. to 6 p. m.-Taxes Adjusted.

| The city council at it's regular meet ing on Monday evening put q stopper on any possibility of stutfng the ballot boxes at future elections by passing d registration ordinance that requires the voter to state name. residence, oc- cupation, residence in Alaska and Nome. birthplace, whether native born or foreigner, and, if foreigner. where first papers were taken out. The ordi- nance was introduced by Councilman Valentine, and was passed unanimous ly. Another ordinance for regulating elections was read. Among the prOvi- slons is One closing all saloons and places where liquors are sold between the hours of a. m. and 6 p. m. On elec- tion days. and that no polling place shall be located within 300 feet of any saloon. The ordinance was referred back 10 the law. ordinance and print ing committee, to be brought up agaln at the next meeting.
 The trouble over adjusting taxes was
 
 finally settled, Seitfert X Gibson $ being reduced from $3.OL5 to $l,S75. Jose X Co. : from 5000 to x2. 800, Geo. Chapman'> rom %l, ,s50 to Sl l.W0O. Larsen Charles WatZ's from $540 to $39O. The records showed no assessments what ever against Joe Palmer or F J. Kelly. and the clerk was instructed to issue d warrant to ChIei Palmer in full of his last month 5 salary.
 Chief of Police Jolley reported hay ing investigated the natter of boys gambling and iCaiing around in the diff fereut resorts, and Was satisfied fully that such was not the case. Mayor Glese wanted a culfew law passed, but the council thought it. mad ,iSable.- the boys generally had to cam what llltle they could, and Il would be work ing hardship on them to compel them to be at home at g o'clock .n the evening.
 Councilman Jourden stated that three or four more alarm boxes were needed and suggested sending out an order for them, but the mayor quickly put the idea on the rack by saying that, as the alarm system lately in stalled was still unpaid, it would be useless to send for anything more until the first was paid.
 The fire alarm box now situated on the corner opposite the recorders office was ordered moved one block north on Steadman avenue to the court house corner.
 The city treasurer's report showed cash on hand in the general fund of $22S.73; fire fund, $31l.SO; attorney fund, $lO3.45: school fund, $o4S.I9.
 With team furnished, Marshal Richards will put the federal prisoners at work clearing the streets of snow drifts.
 Bids were called for the city print ing, the office being open until p. Iii. Tuesday.

Knocked Out in the Second Round By Young Corbett
AT HARTFORD, CORN. .
Me0overn's Defeat a Great Surprise to the Sporting Element, As lie Was a Strong Favorite Before the Battle TlctiovernB Badly Punished.

Hartford, Conn.,, Nov. oS. Terry Me Govern was knocked out in the second round today in his fight with Young COrbett,
 Inthe first round Terry tried left anC sent right to jaw and got to clinch In a mix-up they both got in left, ant landed in a clinch. They exchanged lsfts to face, and Terry, rushing again sent his left to body and right to head Corbett was short on leads, and Terry bOres him to the ropes hard with righ, over the heart. Terry landed right or eye, forcing his man to ropes. Corbett came back pluckily with left on body. which was countered with right on head by Terry. Corbett landed hard right over heart, sending Terry back. but the Brooklyn boy came back with right and left for chest and face, and the round ended in one of the hottest mixes ever seen in the ring.
 Honors even.
 Round a-Terry rushed in with left to body and clinched, and there was d rapid exchange of rights and lefls. Corbett's defense met Terly's smashrs with stiff blows and straight jabs, and with left hand uppercut sent Terry tO the floor. Terry took five seconds of the count and came back like a mad man, throwing left and right wildly with interchanges.
 Science was sent to the winds and the boys began slugging, with Terry very wild, and it looked anybody's fgh. should one of the swinging blows land Corbett kept his head the better of the cwo. While he had no advantage over . Terry. he seemed to bore in better and his botfy blows landed more frequently than Terrt's did.
 Corbett kept on,' forcing Terry half across the ring. There was no guard in4 on Terry's part. He forgot his de- tense and simply saw q hurricane. of , blows coming toward him, one of " hich, : right swinging uppercut, landed s4uarely on the vulnerable point. and Ferry went down and out.
 He was knocked senseless, but he evidently knew that the championship honOrs had fled from him, as he made wild efforts to regain his feet. Corbetl stood back at the waive of the referees hand. Terry had given him such u gruelling argument thathe was dubious as to whether the, Brooklyn boy would not be able to come up again and re- new the battle. Strenuous is an easy way to describe the efforts of the fallen champion to regain his feet, but it was all over. The Denver boy won the battle clearly and cleverly.
 Young Corbett's name is William Rothwell and his home is in Denver Both contestants weighed in under the stipulated l26 pounds. McGovern was the fayorite at l to,3.
