THE PUGILISTS.
GOES OVER
 THE FALLS
Prize Fighter Jackson Could Not Reach the Shore and Went Over Niagara Falls Other News.

Buffalo, Nov 12.--William Jackson, e lightweight Canadian pugilist, is be lieved to have been carried down the Niagara river and over the falls to in stant death on Wednesday might. There seems to be little doubt of his fate. and his parents nave given him up for lost.
 At the Ardell Athletic club, here, Wednesday night, three bouts were scheduled. Jackson was one principal in the main contest, q finish night. About 300 sports were at the club house, and much interest was cen. tered in the battle. But when the two preliminaries were over Jackson was found to be missing. He never showed up.
 Jackson's parents live ill Bridgeburg, which is on the Canadian shore, three miles below Fort Erie. When the time came for him to leave for the scene Of the fight he found that the Fort Erie ferries were not running. The Niagara river at this point is nearly q mile wide, with ten-mile an noun current Without hesitation Jackson. went to a rowboat landing, got into a boat and started to row across The river. with his father on shore watch ing. All went well until Jackson was close to the American side. Then ne lost an oar and was powerless and at the mercies of the water.
 A He cried for help, but in no time ne was swept down the river and lost In the darkness. The father feared the fate his son undoubtedly met. but waited until Thursday morning. When he learned his son had not appeared at the club house he notified the allthort ties. Not the slightest trace has been found of rowboat or fighter.

THE GRIDIRON.
THE CON-
 TESTS TO-DAY
Yale and Princeton the Principal Game = Holy Cross Tackles Harvard Local News.

First in importance of 'to-day's foot ball games IS the YaIe-PrinceIon con, trOverSy, to be adJudlcaLed by force of arms on the lime ribbed paraIleIo, gram at Princeton. 1t is ole Of the great struggies of the year, but does not of necessity imply that a cham pionShip is at stake. To-day'S' game will have a bearing on picking tne leading teams of the east, put ln itself is no champlonshlp game.N Iale Ut this writing has no more claim to the championship than has West Point, and Princeton no more than Annapolis. Of all the teams ill the runnlng, fenn- sylvania is i'll the lead, but may not stay there. To-days game at Princeton, the HarvardY YaIe game and the Penn sylyania- Cornell game will cut prom inent part in the ultimate rating of the teams, also the Army-Navy game, for it is only narrow view that ex- cludes the Army and Navy from rat ing in the college group.
 But this technical question of cham, pionship--the word will not mean a great deal until all the leading teams come together-does not dim the lustre of to-day's Princeton game in the least. It would be just as big an oc- casion were the teams not In the first rank for it still would be Yale and Princeton. Yale and Princeton and Harvard and Yale! In these two coni- binations there is an accompaniment of rivalry and glamor and stubbornness of contest which no other games bring out.
 The Columbia Cornell game to be played at American League park Is next in importance and Nis not unlikely to be fully as attractive contest IL will not draw as many spectators. but may provide play just as exciting. The same is true of the Amherst Dart mouth game. 8 game which brings to, gether two unbeaten teams, which is more than can be said of the Yale, Princeton game. The schedules:

In every valley over the whole earth;
I will build an academy in every town

crown every hill with place of wor-
ship consecrated to the PRONUNCIATION
Of peace; I will support in every pull

so that on every Sabbath morning the
chime on one bill shall answer to the
chime on another around the earth's
wide circumference, and the voice OF
prayer and the song Of praise should
ascend like a universal holocaust to

JAPS WIN SEA BATTLE
RUSSIAN CRUISER SUNK, WHILE
TWO OTHERS FLED.
Bio Battle Which Lasted Five Hours
and Gave the Mikado's Navy Mas
terry of the Seas, Restoring
Ocean Commerce

| Advices from Toxic, under date OF
August IA, state that Vice Admiral
Kamimura encountered the Russian
Vladivostok squadron north Of Tsu
! island in the strait of Korea. and at
tackled the enemy at once. The bat
tie lasted for five hours and resulted
| In a complete Japanese victory. The
| Russian cruiser Rurik was sunk and
/ the cruisers Rossia and Gromboi fed
to the northward after having sus-
tanned serious damage. Vice Admiral
Kamimura cables the navy depart
ment that the injuries inflicted upon
his vessels were slight.
The fate of the crew of the Rurik is
not known. 1t is presumed that many
OF them were killed OF drowned.
The strength of the feet under Vice
Admiral Kamimura is not known,
but it is presumed that he had the
Adsuma, Idsumo, Iwate, Takashisho
and other light cruisers.
Toxic is joyous over this news, as
1t gives Japan mastery of the sea and
restores commerce.
Flags are flying, lanterns are glim-
mering and cries of ''banzai" are ring
Ing in the streets of Toxic in honor OF
he victory gained at sea by Admiral
fuep and Vice Admiral Kamimura.
Underneath the publication of the
populace lies a feeling Of deep salts
faction and qualification at the dis
posal of a desperately serious problem
of the war.
The Russian squadron which con-
fronted Admiral Togo refused battle.
1t was stronger than Admiral Togo's
squadron in battleships and armored
cruisers and had it elected to fight the
result might have altered the fortunes
of war.
The strength of the squadron which
opposed Admiral Togo compelled him
to draw vessels from the squadron
under Vice Admiral Kamimura and
this left the Japanese navy powerless
to operate against the Russian Vladi
vostok squadron and unable to pre-
vent the raids of these vessels.
The raid conducted by the Vladivos.
tok squadron in July was extremely
expensive to Japan, and not only was
retaliation tempting, but it was de-
manded by commercial interests. The
navy, however, grm1y refused to
make a diversion and stuck to Port
Arthur. 1t was confident that the har.
Dor soon would be untenable for the
Russian warships, and that it would
eventually get fair fight in the open
sea away from the Russian land bat
teries and that the Japanese would
win. The calculations of the navy
we're correct and the Russians, with
the chances evened. have been hope
iessly defeated.
Vice Admiral Kamimura. after sew
sral months of weary and patient
waiting, finally got his chance off Tsu
island He sunk the Russian cruiser
Rurik and sent the cruisers Gromoboi
and Rossia fleeing back from the
tight.

Worlds Champion Weight Carrier

The Armenian porters OF Constan-
tinople are believed to be the cham
pion weight carriers of the world.
They have been known for centuries
as "hamals"-i. e., camels. But while
a camel is heavily burdened at 300
pounds for a days march, these men,
according to general belief, quoted in
Curzon's Armenia" will carry for a
short distance, probably from ship TO
shore, as much as 500 pounds. There
is a well-attested story Of "hamal"
having been seen in the streets of
Constantinople with grand piano on
his back.
