Manchester, n H., Dec. l9.-Fully
three thousand members OF the Order
of Patrons of Husbandry are assem-

sion of the State Grange, which will
open here tonight. The order has a
total membership of nearly 10000 in
New Hampshire, grouped together in
264 subordinate oranges and l9 Po-
mona oranges. Each of these two or
ganizations is entitled to two dele
gates in the state convention, added
to which are the state officers and
deputies who will take part in the
convention. Each representative is
usually accompanied by several mem
bers of the grange. The enthusiasm
of the grangers is particularly high,
just at present, owing to the fact that
Ex-Governor Nathan J. Bachelor. the

The opening session will be held
this evening, when the local grange

meeting will be followed bya social
entertainment arranged for the visit

OPINIONS OF THE
COMING BATTLE

AS the time nears for the contest
tomorrow night between old Bob
Fitzsimmons and young Philadelphia
Jack 0Brien, there seems to be a
singular division OF opinion among
the followers of the fighting game as
10 who will be the winner.
Singular, because all natural con-
ditions point to O'Brien's having an
easy thing of it. Only q years of
age, exceedingly clever. strong and
vigorous, matched against him is a
man of 43. certainly in the sere and
golden of a pugilistic lifetime More
over. his hands have been shattered
by his administration of countless
catapult thumps
Added to these handicaps is the
poor showing old Bob made against
George Gardner. who easily stayed
with him through the allotted number
of 20 rounds As TO his condition
unless the ancient is indulging in one
of his fakes to give him better
shade in the beating market-it can't
be any too good. Only recently he
was reported to have broken down on
the road while training.
Numerous spectators witnessed the
breakdown. Maybe Bob selected the
occasion because there were so many
watching. He's a wise old fox, Ii
Robert.
One argument is most used against
O'Brien. lt is said he can't hit hard
His friends reply; Perhaps not, buf

Written Especially for The Evening
CitiZen:-
Apropos of the coming great battle
between Fitz and Jack O'Brien, |
want to say that Robert Fitzsimmons
is the most deceiving person that ever
donned a mitt. He neither acts nor
looks the part of a great fighter, but
that never kept him from showing
'em.
remember the first time JACK
Dempsey saw Fitz he laughed when
told that Robert could fight al 154
pounds. why il seemed so absurd to
him that he wanted to climb into the
ring without any training providing
the Cornishman would make the mid
,lleweight figure.
Not long after this Fitz challenged
Dempsey. The latter was then pre-
pairing for a trip through England.
Scotland and Ireland He was the
most popular fighter in the world
and would no doubt have made a lot
of money on the other side.
But Jack couldn't see anything but
easy money in a hattie with Fitz, and
against all advice of his lifelong
pOned the tour and signed articles A
man who weighed close TO 40, who
would agree to make the middle
weight limit. had no chance with him,
so Dempsey thought
why, Fitzsimmons will be SO weak
when he takes off the weight that
can't help but win. and without much
trouble" Dempsey would continually
say to his manager and hackers.
Well, the night for the fight rolled
around, and while Jack trained faith
fully, he was not in the shape he had
been in his previous battles. Demp
sey's eyes looked as big as electric
light globes when he saw Fitz clint
into the ring, and the men who had
backed him to the extent of $50,00C
quaked in their boots.
They had learned that the big fel
low as they had dubbed him, ha6
made weight, and the way he jumped
into the ring led them to believe that
he was anything but weak. But Jacl
some way could not get IL out of hi'
mind that a man of Roberts siz,
would be greatly handicapped in th,
middleweight class.
Well, it did not take Dempsey lon
Albuquerque evening citizen., 1905-12-19

to learn what an awful mistake he
had made Eighteen times Fitz sent
him smack to the floor Eighteen
times the referee started the count of
ten Every time Jack regained his
feet only to get more. No pleadings
of his seconds or even of FitZ could
stop him. Instead OF being weak Fitz
possessed the most marvellous
strength, and the further he went the
stronger he got.
Well, the mill ended in the 18th
round
With the barrel OF money that
changed hands on the battle went
Jack Dempsey's life. 1t was Bob
Fitzsimmon's deceitful looks which
caused Dempsey to postpone the trip
to England, and it was Fitz's hidden
strength that sent him to the grave

TO DIVIDE THE CITY

divide the city of Newport, the south
ern section of the city, in which most
of the cottagers live, to be known a

for such action are unjust taxation
and the failure of the city council to

on the city clerk. Il is believed that

he can hit often. Corbett couldn't
hit very hard, but he hit too often for
poor old John l..
Bob's supporters depend almost en-
tirely on his terrific knockout clout.
They hope he will get it in before his
young adversary wears him out.
That both men are ring generals is
admitted. In experience each has
fought over 100 battles When FitZ
and O'Brien met for six rounds in
Philadelphia. O'Brien played the drum
on the old one for the first three
rounds, but Fitz seemed to be wearing
O'Brien down when the bell rang out
the finish.
O'Brien's latest triumph. when he
put II all over AL kaufman, touted as
a sure coming champion. added
much 70 his reputation, and no doubt
! greatly influences the betting. It has
been over a year since Fitz has done
any fighting.
While the fight is for the heavy
weight championship, it loses some OF
the usual glamor OF such an event
owing to the fact conceded that JEFF

easily dispose OF either Ftz OF
