HANLON AND NELSON WILL BAT
TIE FOR SUPREMACY At
SAN FRANCISCO.
Sporting Element of Bay City Are
Much Interested in the Match
Of Tonight.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 2S.-
Not since the Corbett- Britt battle has
the San Francisco sporting element
been SO or edge in anticipation of a
fight as is the case today on the eve
of the contest between Eddie Hanlon
and Battling Nelson, which is to be
decided tonight before the Hayes VAL
ley Athletic club. While the keen in
terest manifested in the go is natural
ly due in a large measure to Hanlon's
great popularity hereabouts, this inte-
rest has been heightened by the pre-
vailing belief that Nelson is built of
championship timber and will be able
to put up a rafting fight even against
such formidable antagonist as Han
lon, the victor over such boys as Attel,
Yanger Broad and nost of others.
Nelson is comparatively newcomer
on the coast, but his recent go with
Martin Candle and his past record have
given the cTltlcS mere d nlSn opinion
of his fighting ability. While Hanlon
is a favorite in the betting, there are
few who are not of the opinion that he
will find no easy mark in Nelson.
Ever since the match was made both
fighters have been training faithfully
and the result is that they appear to
be in shape to fight the battle of their
lives. In addition to the star event
of the evening there is something inte-
resting promised in the preliminarieS,
particularly in the fifteen-round go be-
tween Toby Irwin and Jack COrdell.

weeks ago Mr.. Baldie was sued by mis-
wife for divorce. When a division of
the property came up today and the
assets Of Baldie. were taken into ac-
count, the petriffed Indian was includ-
ed
Several persons went to the Baldie
home and viewed the wonder, which is
enclosed in a glass case and kept
under lock and key. 1t is remark
able looking curiosity.
The skin is of a dark copper color
and the body is entirely nude with the
exception of a pair of moccasins and
some kind of a skin cap. covering part
Of the head. The body stands erect
with the mead thrown slightly back
and the sockets of the sightless eyes
gazing upward. The right arm is fold
ed across the breast, while the left arm
swings easily at the side. The teeth
are in excellent condition, and while
the halr is Scant, II is coarse and long.
Mrs. Baldie admits that she knows
little about the Indian further than
that her husband had obtained it from
Alaska and that he jocularly called it
Charley Woods" When, Mr. Baldie
was asked relative to the Indian, he
said that he bought it from pros
pector who had just arrived in Seattle
from Alaska with it.
The prospector was broke" and was
glad to sell his find. Mr.. Baldie was
cnary about making any statement
about the curiosity until the divorce
suit was settled. He said, however,
that the reports given out in court
that it was the petrified body of an In
dian was a mistake, and that it was a
body that had been mummIfied along
lines similar to the mummificatiOn
practiced by the ancient Egyptians.

checked his foam fiecked horse. Stop
he yelled, with an imperious wave of
the hand.
Everything came to a dead stop and
Jim, springing upon the platform, be-
gan a speech that prom sed to break
up all oratorical records.
MY friends he cried, think what
you are about to do. To take the law
into your own hands will stain the fair
name of this county with an imperish-
able blot. To the remotest limit of
time. so long as the memory of man re-
mains, the deed you are about to do
will cause your names to be remem-
bered by posterity with snuddering
shame
There was a restless movement In
the crowd at this point and somebody
growled: Shoot the son of gum
Half a dozen revolvers were covering
Jim in half a second, but he stopped
the coming tragedy by yelling: But as
was saying
1.-THE revolvers were half lowered and
Jim went on: But, as 1 was saying, my
fellow citizens, if this deed must be
done, if it seems wise and necessary,
as no doubt it is, implore you to pro-
coed with it in an orderly and de-

On the preceding Friday she had
swallowed a large brown bean and at

in few minutes seemed to have
passed into her stomach. Sunday af-
