A Real Hero-

Inc Panama trouble has developed
az least one hero. He is Colonel Abaos
OF the Colombian army. After the
american marines from the Nashville
landed ana entrenched themselves.
colonel Abaos jumped out in front Of
ms SUI colombian soldiers and ordered
Lnem 10 advance. Having definite in
LoIlIla Iloh that the Americans were
armed and would shoot. the Colon
bian soldiers quite naturally followed
their usual custom and refused TO obey
luelf commander The fighting blood
OF the Abaoses all came to the surface
IN the doughty colonel Immediately
WIN the utmost intrepidity he vehem-
entity broke his sword across his knee
ana ran madly away behind his fleeing
army paying no heed to the empty
kerosene can one of the marines had
attached to his coat tail.
One cannot but wonder if Colombia
attaches any special significance to the
tact that so mary United States war
ships are being sent to Panama.
Even the London papers have tum-
Dled to the Panama game.

Colonel Abaos Of the Colombian army

when he ordered them to charge the
American marines.

After the Big Fight.
CTeIepathic Mesa geJ

New York. Nov S.-W. A. Brady. the
we'll known fight promoter. hastily left
New York on the Snyde line steamer
Dopeful today en- route to Panama.
His purpose is to secure the big fight
for some city in this country where the
moving picture concession viii be
worth something. The films will not
keep in the tropics, and Mr.. Brady says
his artistic soul revOlts at the thought
Of having posterity deprived of the
pleasure Of Witnessing the great con-
test. Mr.. Brady has been in corre-
spondence with the principals on both
sides and both have expressed a will
ingness to pull off the contest before
any reputable American club Of Mr.
Brady's selection. The gate money is
TO be cut 60 per cent to the winner and
40 to the loser after the expenses Of
putting on the mill and Mr. Brady's
commission is deducted. Eddie Graney
for referee is approved by both sides.
NJ. Brady has guaranteed a purse Of
$1,000 in good money and meal tickets.
While the scene Of the fight has not
been definitely decided upon, it viii
likely be some Pacific coast or Rocky
mountain city. according to a state
ment made by ~. Brady from the
deck Of the DOpeful as the vessel
passed through the long draw.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1903-11-09

There is no reason why Salt Lake
should not secure this contest. The
climate here is eXcellently suited to
this successful operation Of moving pic
ture machines, and the spOrt-lOving
people Of the city would turn out in
large numbers to reinforce the throngs
of sports who would come from other
places. There would be nothing brutal
in the exhibition, which would be more
exciting and instructive than a three
ring circus. 1t is up to the Salt Lake
fight fans to at once get into cOmmu-
nication with Mr.. Brady and try to
land this fight for Salt Lake.

out inside of twenty-four hours. They want
ed $4,000 to beat the measure, and kept
logging so that life was a burden We
hadn't been in town ten minutes before il
seemed as though they thought We had 4
bag of money.
1T was certainly the worst place ever
walking in the corridor outside of the
Senate chamber and man whom did not
know came UP and called me by name. He
asked me what my business was. | did not
care TO have him know. and said that | was
there to fight smoke abatement. He said
that the bill had passed that morning
fou should have sent me couple of
thousand of dollars and l could easily have
killed it he said
The bill providing for the inspection Of
distilled spirits was introduced late IN the
session of 1901. passed and was afterward
declared unconstitutional b. the Supreme
Court William. Ittner. another dealer in
whisky. was also before the Grand Jury
yesterday.
Insurance bills have been periodically In
