MUCH INTEREST IN
PRIZE FIGHT
GANS-NELS0N BATTLE AROUSES
INTEREST OF LOCAL SPORTS
RESULTS WAITED FOR EAGERLY
BY BIG CROWD.

Probably no prize fight ever aroused
so much interest in local sporting circles
as did the Gans-Nelson battle at Gold
fields yesterday afternoon. The fight
was received by rounds and read aloud
in front of Madison's cigar store to a
large crowd of men and even women,
who stood patiently for three hours, ea-
gerly listening to the results of the sep
arate stages OF the battle.
That the sympathy of the majority
of persons was with the white man, was
plainly evidenced by the cheers which
always greeted the announcement of
any temporary advantage which the
Dane secured,
There was little if any money wagered
in Astoria, on the result of the fight.
In spite of the fact that the sympathy
of nearly every one, lay with Nelson,
it lacked confidence, and it was prac-
tically conceded before the fight that
the "Nigger' would be the victor. One
offer posted yesterday morning gave
odds of five to three on Cans, but no
takers were found, 1t seemed to be
the opinion that the fight would be of
short duration, and this was further
strengthened after the first round had
been made known. "Ten rounds at the
most" was the expression heard on all
sides, and when the allotted ten had
passed and then fifteen, twenty, twen-
ty-fye, thirty and forty rounds were
registered with seemingly endless reg
ularity, the crowd grew silent and sim
ply awaited for the end. 1t was with
an almost audible sigh of relief that
the crowd received the final result of the
colored lads victory on foul by Nell
son. Until late last night the sole top
ic of conversation in the various popu-
lar resorts was the fight.

a ball was given in Logan's hall at

the lack of any celebration, as a major

MAY REACH NORTH POLE
BY USE OF AUTOMOBILE
WELLMAN SAYS HoRSELEss MA
CHINE is BEST FITTED
Instead of Pnsumatic Tires Sets of
Chisel feg4h Would Be Used to
Cut the Frozen Covering of the
Northern Sell

The autom0eGse may be destined to
conquer the North Pole, which has sue
cessfully resisted explorers attacks for
years. Many persons well informed
on conditions in the Arctic zone be-
lieve that the auto suggestion is prac-
tical.
Walter Wellman, who has made sew
eral trips to the frozen belt, thinks
that the motor car is better able to
penetrate through the ice fields than
a team of sled dogs.
In any event, all attempts to reach
the pole through the aid of ship and
dogs have failed, and not few ex-
plorers are of the opinion that some
other agent of locomotion is needed to
assure success.
A heavier car would be used for this
work and instead of pneumatic tires
sets of chisel teeth of varying lengths
and patterns could be attached to
strong wide steel tires.
These chisel teeth could cut into the
ice strong enough to give good trac-
tion hold that would enable car to
haul a good string of sleds.
