Concerning the game, it is said that
Mr.. Curry trimmed Mr.. Colwell nicely
and would have undoubtedly knocked
him out had he been tied. The event
was advertised as a boxenfest, but it is
alleged that the two negroes were almost
fighting when the ten rounds were up.
The mill began by the light of four
gasoline torches provided for the pur-
pose, and ended by the glimmer of the
starlit sky. Curry knocked ColweI
down few times but he always got up
and sprinted some more. Some money
was lost and won on the field and some

ent conditions are favorable for good

which ensures water for next summer;

Mr., Mccormick, IN speaking OF local

and remarked that It would be a great
consideration II the government would
come TO the local relief In the matter
of reservoir and watersupply, and II Is
to be hoped that some plan OF opera
tiOns may be adopted whereby Utah

for the impoundlng Of waters. Mr..
Mccormick said there Is good demand
for money, for general purposes of in
yestment, to some extent perhaps by
over speculation, But on the whole the
conditions OF the money market are
good, and there Is no reason why these
conditions should not continue.
