THE RANKEsT OF FAKES.
Was the Prize Fight in Which Nor
gan Williams and John Cavan-
augh We're Principals.


From all accounts the wildly adver.
tised fight between Morgan Williams
of this city and Charles Cavanaugh OF
Chicago, pulled off at Aspen Tuesday
night, was about the rottenest thing
that has ever happened in western
Colorado pugilistic circles.
II Cavanaugh quit in the first round
He acted as though he never saw a
ring before.
The Aspen Democrat gives the af-
fair one hot roast after another. The
audience demanded it's money back.
Grand Junction sports were interest
ed in the fight and were greatly disa-
ppointed on learning that it was a
fake pure and simple.
/ The Democrat says in part:
/ The alleged prize fight at the
Wheeler last night was without
doubt the rawest job that has ever
been perpetrated on an Aspen aud
/ ience.
/ The exhibition given last night was
a disgrace and has forever ruined the
/ fighting game in this city. Aspen
has stood for a good many raw ones,
but last nights performance was the
4 Limit. The writer has seen men
mobbed for less than this and it is
a blessing that Aspen is the law
aDlulnS city Sne is.
The fight was too disgusting and
/ disappointing to talk about, suffice
/ it to say, however. that Cavanaugh
made about the yellowest quit that
ever was seen or heard of. The fight
lasted just about two minutes and a
half and was over so quickly as to al
most take ones breath away. The
job was so miserably done that the
audience who had given up hard cash
to see halfway decent exhibition
anyway, rose as on man and yelled
''fakei" and continued to do so until
Referee Bruin stepped to the ropes
and declared that owing to the mis-
cradle and cowardly showing made
by Cavanaugh. he (Cavanaugh)
would not receive his share of the
purse but that the same would be do
mated to the Fourth of July commit
tee which decision was received with
cheers.
Last nights affair was sure a jab.
says the Democrat, and a very poorly
arranged job at that. The least they
could have done would have been to
have framed it up to go at least eight
or ten rounds and given the audience
a run for their money.
After the referee had tolled off pay
day for Williams, the big dubb Cav
anaugh, arose without assistance and
proceeded to his corner trying to look
dazed as If he had been knocked out,
After this farce was out the aud
ience clamored so long and loud for
their money or satisfaction, and they
were right too, that several of our
local boys stepped into the ring and
gave an exhibition that was really
great and a splendid sample of the
manly art.
If you can find anybody today who
will acknowledge they We're present
at this yellowest of all yellow fakes
you will indeed be a wonder.

THE ELKS BALL.
Large Attendance and Enjoyable Oc-
casion-About Four Hundred
Dancers Were Present.

The last of the series of dances
given under the auspices of the local
lodge of Ellks for the benefit of the
Grand Lodge entertainment fund,
took place last night at the Auditor
ium and the ball was complete sue
cess in every particular.
AS usual thing summer dances do
not draw large crowds but the hop
last evening was an exception. The
dancing began shortly after nine o.
clock and during the evening there
Were $50 couples on the floor The
program was well arranged, the
music furnished by Prof, Payne and
his orchestra was of the very best
quality and delighted everybody. The
merriment continued until long past
midnight.
1t was a big crowd. a congenial
crowd and good time certainly was
had.
The committee having in charge
the arrangements for the ball are to
be warmly congratulated upon its
unalloyed success. A handsome
amount was realized above all ex-
penses to be applied to the entertain
ment fund, which goes toward de
frayed the expenses of the trip of
the Grand Junction delegation of Elks
to Denver.

TO WHOfl IT MAY CONCERN.

In 1902 we opened an account with Milton Murphy, of Bough- ton, Ark. When the account matured Gin the fall of 1902) Murphy said he had made a short crop, and asked us to carry him for another year, this we agreed to do. In the fall of 1903 he gave us the same hard luck story. in 1904 and 1905 the same, this year (1906), with a full crop, he failed to settle the account. Our MT. John Warren called on him at his home and asked for settlement, if net ia cash. he would accept his note. He replied, ''l owe the debt but positively will not make note We sued on the account, knowing 1t was. out lawed, if he (Murphyl claimed it. Murphy appeared by attorney in court and pleaded statute of limitation. This of course canceled the debt, us paying costs.
 To others of our customers we wish to state, the case of Milton Murphy is not common in this country, and we would be slow to believe that there are any others that would take advantage of the limitation act to defeat an honest debt, but for fear there might be others, we will not sleep on our rights. and call at- tention now that all old accounts unsettled by Dec. lst, 1906, will be sued on.

WHY KIDNEY DISEASE
 IS DANGEROUS.
Neglect of the First Warning Symp- toms is the Prime Cause of so Many Deaths from the Dreaded
 Bright's Disease.
It is Easily Durable in the Early Stages.

Kidney diseases are so destructive to human life because they do not manifest alarming symptoms until the constitu- tion IS seriously weakened and the strength exhausted. Then, too often, the remedies employed by many physi- clans are of indifferent or doubtful value, and the patient rapidly sinks under the disease. The wisest course is to apply a reliable kidney and liver remedy on the frst apbeayanee of the symptoms. little uneasiness in the small of the back, digestive troubles, bowel irregularities and disorder ill the urinary organs are matters of small moment in the estitna- ton of strong men and women, yet they have serious meaning. They show clearly that the kidneys are suffering and need help, which must be fortli- coming at once to prevent serious, per haps fatal consequences. 4 few doses of Prickly Ash Bittcrs at lis time would prove of incalculable value in restoring the weakened organs to health. An investment of one dollar ill bottle of Prickly Ash Bitters when the disease is yet in the early stage will save hundreds of dollars in doctors bills, besides the suffering that would surely follow should the disease be allowed to fasten itself in the body. The excellent curative power of Prickly Ash Bitters is not confined 10 the first stages of kidney disease. It is equally eficacious ill severe or chronic cases. Physicians have used it as last resort, in cases that detied their best efforts, with the most brilliant results, and it has shown its superiority over the many so-called kidney cures, now being loudly advertised, ill instances innu- merable.
