SAMUEL W. VANCE, DEAD.

The news reached La lara, Tues
day night, that Sam Vance had
died at the home of j. p. Mc1ntire
on the Conejos river that afternoon,
heart failure being the immediate
cause of his death. He was strick-
en- while walking from the kitchen
into the dining room and died
almost instantly.
The news of the death of Sam
Vance has caused every old timer
in the valley many a pang, for all
knew him and all knew of the
myriad kindnesses and generous
acts he was ever doing during his
life. Sam was man who had a
good word and kindly feeling for
everyone. He possessed that happy
disposition of looking upon the
bright side of life and shutting his
eyes to the dark. A man of good
family and splendid education, he
was character not often found
living the life of an old bachelor
on IA western ranch.
He was born in indianapolis.
Ind. in 1S47, and enlisted in the
And Ohio infantry at the opening
of the Civil war, serving four years.
Coming to Colorado in the early
seventies he settled in Denver and
in 1880 came to the San Luis val
ley where he has since lived. A
druggist by profession and nat
uralist at heart, he took to tax
idermy years ago and has made it
his businesses ever since. Possess
ing IA rare talent and a knowledge
of wild animals seldom gained, he
had acquired fame as taxider-
mist seldom enjoyed by one of his
profession. He leaves two brothers
and one sister, living in Ihdianap-
oils, Ind, and Columbus, Ohio, and
multitude of friends to mourn
his loss

ATTELL-BAKER DECISION
SEEN FROM BOTH SIDES

Not the least amusing feature of the
Attell-Baker aftermath occurred last
evening when two starlight editions
published Opinions" of the fans"
relative to Referee Robinson's decision.
The following variations surely cannot
be attributed to typographical errors.
Three judges are made to gaze from
both sides of the fence:
champion Tommy Burns-I think
the, decision was fair and honest, al
though the fight was so even that
would not have been surprised at a
draw. Those who sit around the ring
cannot see the blows land or judge of
their effectiveness as can the referee,
who is watching every movement of
the fighters.
Tommy Burns-A good draw.
Montana Kid--It was rather an
even thing in the early rounds, but
after the fifteenth round it appeared to
me that the only question was how
long Baker could stick it out. 1 think
the decision was the only one that
could have been rendered in fairness to
both boys.
Montana Kid-Draw or nothing.
"Bruce Pitcher-Draw all the way.
Bruce Pitcher-While 1 think Attell
had shade on Baker 1 believe a draw
decision would have been more popu-
lar"

DISCUSS ATTELL-
BAKER BATTLE
Much Interest Centcrs In Beraer-
Kaufman Battle and Large
Crowds Watch Fight
Returns

Abe Attells victory over Harry Ba-
ker Tuesday evening formed an absorb
ing topic about town yesterday and
the consensus of opinion strongly fa-
vored Referee Robinson's decision in
awarding the battle to Attell.
Both men were the recipients of con-
gratulations for their fast exhibition
and Baker will evidently not lose pres
tige because of his defeat. Many are
strongly of an opinion that had Baker
had more experienced seconds he would
have met with even more success than
he did. Had Dewitt Van Court been in
the aspirant's corner the probabilities
are that Baker would have made a
greater impression upon his opponent
1t appears that Harry's decision to dis
pense with Van Courts services did
him no good
Tommy Burns had the following to
say regal ding Bakers future:
while 1 believe Robinson's decision
was just one, nevertheless l am con-
vinced that Baker has it in him to whip
Abe and 1 will bet $1,000 that 1 can
make him do it. The boy was handi-
capped by incapable seconds and did
not do his BEST
Much interest centered about the
Kaufmann- Berger bout at San Fran
cisco last night, and several good sized
wagers were laid. AL Greenwald put
through one bet at $500 to $4O0 with
Berger on the long end and negotiated
a second wager at $500 to $3.50, Berger
being the favorite.
Jack O'Brien's shrewdness as
dopester was instanced again last
night. O'Brien has always held that
Kaufman would defeat Berger, and
made strong predictions prior to leav-
ing for the north. Just before the men
entered the ring last night the foxy
Philadelphian wired friends in Los An
geles that Kaufman appeared win
ner. Those on the inside created anx-
iety in Berger quarters as they sour
ried about to get down on the short
ender. Within short time all avail
able Berger money had been covered
at odds of 1913 and the crowd imme-
diately commenced guessing as to what
was up. When the flash came in that
Kaufman had won distinct shock
occurred in the favorites circles.

STANFORD AGAIN DEFEATS
THE VANCOUVER TEAM

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, oct. 81.
In fercely contested game on STAN
ford field today the Cardinal team de-
feated the Vancouver fifteen by the
close score OF to 8. The Canadians
IN the first half clearly outplayed STAN
Iord, but In the second period the col
legians had much the better of the con-
test Early In the second half Bispham
or Vancouver tripped Owens of STAN
ford, and Pemberton, the latters team
mate, retaliated by striking the vis-
itor, and only the Intervention of the
OFFICIALS and coaches prevented free
for-all fight. The Canadians scored
early In the first half on play by
Snowden, who on his own kick ran
hfteen yards to a try. Stanford scored
shortly after the whistle announced the
second half through the clever drlb-
bling and passing of Chalmers, Hus-
sey and Stanford. The goal was kicked
from difficult angle by Fenton, 1eav-
ing the score to 3.

boxing he whipped across a right to
the jaw, sending Kaufman to the
ropes. In a last desperate rally the men
stood toe to toe I'm the center of the
ring slugging. 1t only lasted a mo-
ment, and Sam sobbed back into a
clinch. Kaufman drew out, whipping
across a right and sent his man to the
floor. The big boy staggered up game
but helpless, and AL, weak from his
own eXertions, was in no condition to
whip over the sleep tablet. Kaufman
sent In light blows to the face at viii,

two hard blows to the jaw. Again came
the call from his corner to swing. He
did so, landing on AIS face, but the
latter, taking advantage of the fact
that Sam had tired himself out, stepped
in and pushed his man to the mat.
Berger was too weak to rise and his
seconds threw the sponge into the ring.
