"CORBETT".HANLON FIGHT.
what Champion leffries and Terry Nc
Govern Think of MIL.

For little fellows II was the grandest
battle ever fought says j. j. Jeffries.
"Corbett' won because he was the strong
or, and had perhaps shade better of the
punching. Hanlon however, was there all
the time and his hooks and straight jabs
bothered the champion, In fact, accOrd-
ing to the Geographic stories Of the fight,
the champion at one stage Of the game
was more than worried II was "Cor-
betts' great guilty Of coming back that
saved the day for him. When Hanlon
commenced to go there was no coming
back for him, he had shot his bolt and
n was only a question Of time when the
champion would have landed the blow
that would have stretched Hanl0n sense
les or the floor. Ganey did right when
he stopped the battle. There could have
been no othe action when llanlon reached
his distressing condition,
Terry MCGOvern says: "Corbet' won as
| expected he world | know the force OF
the punches behind the champion, ! have
been up against them often enough to
know their effect, | expected that Hanlon
woul fight hard but the fight that he
made even passes my expectations, Hls

work on the Canton g. Hankow rail-

on THE STREET
AND ELSEWHERE.

With two or three inches OF snow on
the ground, just why a sprnkling cart
should be out at I o'clock this morning
may forever remain a mystery The
driver wouldn't tell. Nobody else
could, But 1t was there.-very much
therein front Of the Kenyon, backed
up TO a fire hydrant, ready for busl-
ness. The shiverig driver dlsmounted
and with considerable difficulty con-
nected the nose with the mouth Of
the hydrant. Then he turned on the
water For a moment things were
uneventful But soon the hose began
TO swell like the proverblal pup that
dined on cyanide Of potassium, and the
next instant there followed a sound
not unlike The combied Pts OF an
automobile doing Salt Lake block
"Confound II anyway" exclaimed
the young teamster feelingly, She
gone an busted"
At that moment the hose seemed to
make q half revolution Just at the
point where the break occurred. The
driver at the time was standing about
where the said half revolution ceased.
The effect was deplorable-and the
carts custodian said several things as
he swan out OF the deluge on to the
sidewalk
AS though fate had not been sufflci-
entity unkind for one day--and that day
the fourth Of the year-while the team
ster was thawing himself out. the cou-
plIng froze TO the hydrant and evident
~ intended to remain frozen, II was
a frozen valve on top Of the wagon that
had causpd tho hose TO hurst but thia
seemed even moro serious,
What shall / do?' he exclaimed de-
spairingly.
TRY some radlum," suggested the
slender Mr. Mulvey.
"Or coal" put IN Cap. Harrison.
The victim took the latter tip and
made for friendly bin nearby. He re-
turned with the fuel and kindling wood.
After several strenuous trials, he got
the fire started and In another hour was
able to detach the hose and started
upon his journey.
