Fitzsimmons he will probably scale
something like 172 pounds.
Possessing nearly as much science
as Corbett, O'Brien is endowed with
the faculty of being able to strike a
really hard blow. He has been known
to knock rival out with one smash.
All these attributes should certainly
point toward victory for him. And
what is more he will be on equal terms
with Fitzsimmons on point of weight,
unless the stories of the lanky bruis-
er's ability to reduce to the middle
weight notch, 1853 pounds, have been
grossly exaggerated. Fitz has all along
cortended that to get to 1853 pounds
would be easy for him. Yet no one

DIAMONDS GO STILL HIGHER.
Third Advance Of Five Percent is An
nounced From London.

uOuUCCO CTOUt LVUOOUs
Cable messages received recently
by diamond importers from the Lon
don syndicate which controls the out
put of the De Beers Consolidated
Mines, Ltd, announce an advance in
the price of rough stones of per
cent, the third of like amount this
year, says the New York Herald.
There was, in addition, in Septem-
Der, an increase in price of per cent
applying only to Jagersfontein stones,
the blue tinted gems, which are most
highly priced
The present advance, which comes
in time to affect the holiday trade, Is
comprehensive, including sizes which
have not been advanced in three
years.
Government reports show that for
the nine months ended with Septem-
Der the importation of diamonds
amounted to $22,O22,193, while in the
corresponding period a year before
the total was only $15,58S.24S. The
United States is now taking more than
60 per cent of all the finer grades of
the worlds diamonds.

A eridue for 1 ittIe Rrother.

DR.. Alexander Mckenzie, in one of
his sermons, tells pretty anecdote
of the early life of Louis Agassiz, the
great scientist. AS child Agassiz
lived in Switzerland, on the border
of lake. He had younger brother,
and one day the two lads started to
cross the lake. 1t was frozen, and
the ice looked safe enough, but their
mother watched them.
The boys got on very we'll till they
cameto a crack in the ice, perhaps a
foot wide. The mother could not call
to them, although her heart failed her
as she thought, Louis will get over
we'll enough, but little brother will
try to step over and will fall in"
AS she watched she saw Louis get
down on the ice, his feet on one side
ofthe crack, his hands on the other,
making a bridge of his body, and the
little brother crept over him to the
other side. Then Louis got up, and
they went on their way.-Youtn's Com.

tied with production of nearly s4O,-

New York corporation known as the
Utah Nevada Consolidated Mining
company. which has acquired the prin-
cipal cid producers known as the Ray
nond and Ely, Meadow Valley, Yuba
and others. The deepest workings on
these were 1900 feet and a good ore
was found in the bottom. The shaft
is to be continued to depth of 1000
feet and the ore developed at that
eepth. Other old properties are be-
ing opened up, and it is now proposed
to build railroad from Phoebe, 80
miles to Caliente on the Salt Lake
anc Los Angeles road, giving cheap
communication with Salt Lake City.

Fitzsimmons' mill with Jim Corbett

Fitz' career was practically at its
height. He had been trying for years
to impress Corbett with the fact that

heavyweight, provided the middle
weight has the necessary qualifica-
tiOns and nerve They met in a finish
mill and in IA rounds Corbett was put

AS ring patrons must admit, there
was no cleverer man in the business
than Jim COrbett. He was a past mas

Fitz out. Fitz, with wonderful tenac-
