Livingston, Oct 2s.Word was sent
to the sheriff's office this morning by

There is mystery surrounding the
disclosure Of the body. No one is
able to identify the remains and no
one is remembered as having disap-
peared from the basin in any suspi-
cious way. The officers are at a
loss here also to even conjecture who
the dead man might be.
A man named Smith, miner Of Aid

spring. His whereabouts have been
question OF some concern to the
people Of Aldridge. It was suspected
he was drowned In the Yellowstone

Sullivan worthy Of being included in
the list of the modern gladiaters OF

ALI OF these questions are answered
in the negative by self-constitution

headed by Jim Crohorth and Ben Sells,
and including several other prominent
sports Of Frisco. Reviewing the mer-
its and demerits Of all the great fight
ers OF the Queensberry era, they fin
ally decided by vote the ten who are
entitled to the laurel wreath Of pugil-

That the immortal John l.. Is not
among them Is perhaps the saddest
commentary on the evanescent ma
ture of fame that has ever been writ

were weighed in the balance and found
not wanting:
Robert Fitzsimmons, James J. Cor
