Within the last three days there has been decided improvement inthe min ing business to the south of Douglas. Prospectors have started into Sonora again and already there is a demand on the local attorneys and representa- lives of the Mexican government for the first papers necessary to take up ground in Mexico. The coming sea. son promises 10 be very prosperous in northern Sonora. The heavy rains of the past two weeks have started the grass. the rivers are running oank full and the country is in better condi- ton for prospecting than for a year

Teiegrans Telling of Present Strike Creates Good Feelinq There.

The Houghton Mining Gazette says that in addition to several private telegrams from Bisbee, telling of the strike. the Houghton officials of the Houghton Development company yes terday received a telephone message from Prssident N. FLeopold. who is in Chicago. stating that he had received telegram from Superintendent Scott Turner to the effect that "On the south end we have uncovered a fine showing of high grade ore. The vein is twenty inches wide in one place and shows very good for seven feet in length. The character of the ore is strong. The values show slOS per ton. according to the assays"
 The officials state that the showing of ore which has been made is on the Back Bone claim. This is the point from which Dr. George A. Koenig. Of the Michigan College of Mines. brought back samples upon returning from his recent visit to Bisbee in com pany with Captain James Wilcox. At the time the samples were brought back report was prepared in which Doctor Koenig said that the prospects on the Back Bone at the south end where the strike has just been made were the most favorable on any portion of the property. The formation so far as disclosed at that point being in every respect the same as on the Copper Queen.
 J. A. Minnear & Co. of Laurium, received A telegram from Risbee an- ncuncing the good strike of ore and stating that the Bisbee people are highly pleased at the prospects.

it was in 1861, compressed within 2S
square miles. At the close CT the Franco
Prussian war, Berlin, now the capital
of a new empire, became a paradise.
Streets of houses appeared almost as if
by magic, and the whole aspect of the
city became changed. From being the
worst lighted, worst drained and ugli-

the finest, c~leanest and handsomest OF
cities, and its population has more thar

mack, at Northwestern, has been COM
planning of light material and few
newcomers. While Mccormack lost
several of his best varsity players he
gains in Johnson and Williams, the
Indian recruits from Carlisle, more
than he lost in Capt. Fleager and the
other puppies who have played their
last for Northwestern. AS for the other
members of the big nine" Michigan is
by far the favorite in the champion
ship race and seems to be in a class
by themselves. Although many new
candidates have appeared at Wiscon-
sin, the problems confronting the
coaches will be numerous and trying.
The task that is causing the greatest
worry at the present time is the devel-
opment of a quarter back. If a good
quarter is not found in the new ma
| terial, it is almost safe to conclude that
the team will be weak. Minnesota as
usual looks formidable. Little is known
about Iowa prospects, but Illinois will
try new tactics this year and see what

Lowenthal and Lundgren will coach

that Purdue passed through last year

VI - JclTleS d I luc
present time, remarks a prominent
Chicago sporting writer, has not yet
been developed, and by the time he has
been, Jeffries will be sans teeth, sans
hair, sans everything. At the present
time there is no man who deserves d
match with the champion. Scour the
whole world and you cannot find any
pugilist who has the right to challenge
Jeffries even. Undoubtedly he will re-
ceive many challenges, but they must
come from men as unworthy of notice
as was Munroe. To develop a fighter
who would have o chance against JEFF
fries and would have a right to fight
him for the championship will take
| several years at least. The champion
is no longer q young man as fighters
| go and in q few more years will have
reached the age limit for pugilists-
that is, what is considered the age
limit-a rule which is proved by the
! remarkable exception In Fftzsimmon's
case. Supposing within the next four
or five years some now heavyweight
makes his appearance and works his
way into national prominence, finally,
as a elimination of his fighting career,
challenging Jeffries. 1t would not be
contrary to his right and to general
| good sense for the champion to refuse
to accept the def. He well might say
that during the years of his active
pugilistic life he fought all corners, and
that now, having aged considerably
| from the athletic standpoint and re-
tired from the ring, he refused to en-
| ter it again. OF all the heivy-weights
in this country there is not one who
can be named as a fighter worthy OF a
chance with J%effries. The men who
gave him his hardest battles have all
been beaten at least once and are out
Of the running. Sharkey, who gave
! him the hardest battle he ever fought,
is a has-been. Never, since he fought
the champion and lost the decision in
Jeffries' only championship fight which
went the limit, has the sailor been the
same man. In that battle his ribs were
smashed and battered SO that for years
afterward he was obliged to wear steel
corsets. Sharkey, by b way, is the
best man Monroe ever fought before
he met the champion. The fight be-
tween these two took place in Philadel-
phia, and consequently there was nc
decision. Munroe, however, is credited
with having had the better OF it, which
was only evidence of how far back
Sharkey had gone. Corbett. who put
up the next longest battle with Jeffries,
has had his second chance and has been
thoroughly whipped. Fitzsimmons, al
SO, can never rightfully claim another
match. Such men as Ruhlen and Mon
roe are not worth consideration. JEFF
fries is probably the one heavyweight
champion. who will go to his grave
undefeated.

LIGHT DEATH RATE
REGULAR MONTHLY MEETING OF
BOARD OF HEALTH HELD
LAST EVENING.
Report Of Acting Physician to the
Board Dr.. j. F. Herrlck for the
Month of June - Ira Phillips Pre-
sents Petition for Rebate.

Seventeen deaths occurred in OF
1umwa during June according to the
monthly report submitted at the
regular meeting Of the board Of health
last evening by Acting City Physician
to the Board ]. F. Herrick. DR.. Her
rick stated that the death rate Of S.S
per 1000 population per annum was
unusually low for Ottumwa.
DR.. Herrick called attention to the
fact that there had been twelve
cases of scarlet fever reported during
the month and said that some Of these
cases were serious and that it was q
question as to how to deal with the
disease. He believed that the
spread of the disease was caused to
a great extent by the failure to report
the mild cases and said that some Of
the children had the disease in such
mild form that they were not contin-
ed TO bed at all and did not know
they had the scarlet fever. Mayor
Picker suggested that as many Of
the cases had been reported in the vi
cinity of the Garfield school the build
Ing should be disinfected before the
commencement of the fall term.
During the month the two smallpox
patients at the pest house were dis.
charged and the city ct present is free
from that disease.
Petition for Rebate,
A petition from Ira Phillips stated
that the city scavenger had rendered
il oil for services that was twice as
much IS it should have been and ask
