CHISEL TO MAKE
FITz IMMORTAL
Former Worlds Champion to
Be Reproduced in Marble
by Sculptor.

Robert FitZsimmons. as the most per-
feet modern reproduction of the Roman
gladiator, is to be sculptured in marble
and placed side by side with the statues
Of the ancient fighters for the instruc-
ton of future generations in the physical
development of the twentieth century,
says the Evening Mail.
The former champion prize fighter of
the world has been picked by Gutzon
BOrglum, the sculptor, as the best speci-
men of muscular development, and the
hero of 400 hard-fOught battles will sit
every day this fall while the artist makes
a statue of him.
Fitz is in the city now, and Mr. Borg
lUm told an Evening Mail reporter today
that he had just completed arrangements
for the sittings with the old man of the
ring
Remarkable Figure for Fighting.
"Fitzsimmons has the most remarkable
figure for fighting, above the belt, that
/ have ever seen" said the artist He
Is one of the best specimens of manhood
in the world, and is by far the most per
feet representative of the fighting man
that this age has produced.
Above the waist he has the ideal
build of a fighter. That is what has en-
abled him to conquer so many men
stronger and bigger than himself. In this
respect he is the best representative Of
Why did you pick him rather than
Jeffries or some of the men who have
whipped him?' asked the reporter
Because JeffTies and these others are
merely fighters. They are big men. and
many OF them are undoubtedly stronger
than FitzsimmOns. but they lack that ex-
traOrdinary build that, in my opinion
makes the grand old man of the ring the
most perfect exponent of prize fighting.
Hero of 400 Battles.
4 understand Fitzsimmons is 81 years
old, and that he has fought 400 battles.
Could anything qualify a man better as
the dean of the prize ring? Then, too, he
has lines built for a sculptor to work
upon. His muscles are clean-cut and
long. His neck is so short that he can
almost draw his head down even with his
shoulders Few of the statues of the an
Gent gladiators show physiques equal to
that Of FitZsimmOnS.
THE strange thing is that Fftz has al
ways been carfcatured. There has never
been serious drawing of him. Artists
and cartOonists seem to have missed the
great possibilities offered by his remark
able build.
How does Fitz take to the idea of bav-
ing a statue made of him?" asked the
reporter
oh, he's tickled to death-thinks it the
greatest thing ever"

UTAH COLLEGE CONFERENCE
Meeting Called for Next Saturday to
Be Held in Salt
Lake,

Secretary Milne of the Utah Intercolle-
giate athletic conference has called a
meeting of that association for next Sat
urday morning at 10 o'clock at the Kenyon
hotel. this city. Milne says it is important
that all the schools in the association be
represented as he believes the rules for
the association should be carefully gone
over. The eligibility rule has always been
a thorn in the conference and up to date
it has been impossible to frame such
rule that fully governed all phases of the
college athlete. Milne believes such a rule
can be made and that il should be so sim
pie that every member of the association
would fully understand its meaning.

May Die Before Leav-

New York, Sept. 2S.-In the first acct
dent Of consequence in the twenty-four-
hour endurance automobile race at Nor
ris park race track, one man was killed,
two persons perhaps fatally injured and a
score of others more or less bruised to-

the thirteenth hour of the race. The car
was a 4O-horse-power LoZier, which was
being driven by Harry SmelZer of New

timber and thrown from the machine.
When picked up it was found that his
skull was fractured and he died at the
FOrdham hospital

ing near the fence when the machine
dashed through, was injured internally,
and a boy named Fred Tape suffered a
fracture of his leg and other injuries.

Smelzer and his partner, Lnkrom, were
racing with another machine with which
they had been sprinting for half an hour
Suddenly the tire on the front right wheel
of the Lozier machine burst and the car
swerved toward the fence, at a point
where about 300 persons were leaning over
the rail watching the race. The accident
came with such suddennesS that they were
unable to get away, and fully twenty Of
them were knocked down and painfully
hurt. Crowds rushed out on the track and
it was impossible for the police to hold
them in check Many had narrow escapes
from being hit by cars that were racing
around the track. the race not having
been interrupted by the accident.
Driver LinkrOm. who was riding with
SmelZer, escaped injury.
It was announced that the machine prob
ably could be repaired in a few hours,
and if so it would re-enter the race.
The Fiat car driven by Cedren and Buke
won the race, covering 9S4 miles.

.STEINHART SUIT
WIDELY DISCUSSED
Proceedings to Recover Op-

Out Scandal.

Announcement that a sensational salt
has been brought IN New York against
Frank SteiEhart who was the American
consul general at Havana FOR several
years up 10 July/I. has aroused con-
siderable interest among officials here.
The suit g brought BY ex-Judge H J.
Reilly to recover money alleged to be
due on an option for the purchase Of
an electric railroad ir Santa Clara
province.
While none OF the Washington on
eials know the merits OF this particular
case. It is regarded as not Improbable
that Il may result In scandal OF some
proportions. stelnhart went 10 Cuba
during the original American occupa-
ton IS q cOmnissary clerk under Cen
eral wood, and was later made the con-
sular representative OF this Government
in Havana. II Is not true. as published
this morning. that Secretary Taft took
him there as his secretary. EIe was
consul general OF the United States for
four years before Taft ever visited
Cuba. But 1t IS true that steinhart was
ths confidential agent and adviser OF
Secretary Taft and Assistant Secretary
OF State Bacon during their trip to
Cuba, which resulted In ths- resignation
of President Palma and the present oc-
eupation Of the island by American
troops.
