bell changed summoning the princi-
pals to action. Interest In the out
come was intense Despite the fact
that Hanlop, in his previous encoun-
ter with the champion, had somewhat
the hest Of the bout, and the we'll
known propensity Of the local sport
ing fraternity to allow sentiment to
warp their Judgment in contests par
ticipated in by local celebrities, Cor
bett was pronounced the favorite' in
the betting, opening up at ODDS Oh
10 to few days ago. The odds
gradually shortened, owing to the
weight Of the Corbett money, and
when the lads entered the pavilion
| were 2 to 1 with the Denver crack on
the long end. At these figures many
large wagers We're made at the ring
side, there seeming to be no lack OF
Hanlon money in sight. One OF the
reasons advanced for the unevenness
of the. betting is the fact that most
of the eastern turfmen and bookmak-
ers attending the local races, had pin
ned their faith on the superiority OF
the champion and had backed theil
opinions freely.
Corbett and Hanlon met at Harry
Corbett's, where the question OF
weight was decided. The articles Of
agreement stipulated that they should
weigh in at 129 pounds at o'clocl
or forfeit $1,000. Corbett was first tC
step on the scales and just tipped the
beam at 129 pounds. Hanlon wai
evidently under these figures, as hi
failed to move the scales.
About the ringside were many east
ern men of national reputation. Jacl
Munro, who had met Champion jeff
ries at Butte, was among those pres
ent. A large delegation Of Corbet
men arrived from Denver t
witness the contest. The party wa
headed by Otto Floto, the we'll know
sporting writer.

For the two rounds previous Referee

The San Francisco boy was carried to
his corner, still conscious, but unable
to walk, and his seconds worked Wig
orously to revive him.
The terribly beaten lad however,com
menced to vomit blood and things
looked very serious for him for a
short time. He was finally revived
and was carried from the ring by one
of his seconds. Before he left Young
Corbett paid high tribute to Han
Ions skill and gameness and saluted
his brother prizefighter with an az
lfectionate kiss. 1t must be said fol
Corbett that he was as merciful under
the circumstances as he could be.
During the 14th and 18th rounds he

AT no time was Corbett in danger
Hanlon's peculiar and effective de-
fense was all that saved him from

snecial to Times Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
NIuscatne, Oct. By new process
of drainage 1t is proposed to reclaim
10000 and 10000 acres of Muscatine
and Louisa county land which are un-
At for agricultural purposes during the
wet seasons.
The process by which this land. all
of which lies on either side of Musca
tine slough in the counties mentioned,
is to be regained is the proposed es
adjustment of evee drainage system.
In brief, the drainage system, as now
contemplated will consist of one centri
fugal force pump. and two twenty-inch
stationary pumps. The slough is to be
used for the central ditch. which will
take care of all the water of the ter
ritory which 1t adjoins. The centri-
fugal pump will occupy barge in the
slough, and its function will be to keep
the ditch free from sandbars and other
distractions. The proposed stationary
pumps are to occupy position at least
twelve miles below Muscatine and
their purpose VIII be to pump the
water of the slough over the levee and
into the Mississippi river.
The object of the pumps as ex-
planned by c. Il. Hunter, who resides
between Muscatine and Let's. will be
to keep the slough at a stage four feet
lower than is its stage during the dri
est season of the year. BY lowering
the great body of water four feet, Mr..
Hunter as well as other men of that
vicinity, who have been considering
the proposition believe that the water
which floods the lowlands during wet
seasons, will find a reservoir In the
slough, and that the land usually COW
cred by the overflow will be regained
for agricultural purposes, regardless Of
whether the season is very wet or very
dry.

with him to Mr.. Hoyt's office. Mr..
Fish persisted in driving and came
nearly upsetting the buggy time or
