LONDON, Dec. 1.--Great interest at
taches to the boxing contest here tomor-
row night between Tommy Burns and
Gunner Moir. No international sporting
event of recent months has attracted so
much attention as the 20-round fight for
the worlds heavyweight championship in
the famous National Sporting club. Burns
is the American and Australian cham
pion and Moir is champion of England.
Marquis of Queensberry ru.es will gov
ern the contest and five-ounce gloves will
be used.
Besides the title of champion $4,000 in
prize money has been hung UP, and there
will be a side bet of considerable propor-
tions. Against al precedent and In COM
pliance with Burns request, Eugene Hill
born, a sportsman not Connected with the
club has been chosen referee. Burns is

Both men are known as rushing fight
ers with plenty of gameness and stamina.
Aor has been in the ring several years
and has won all Of his fights with COM
parative ease, while Burns ring achieve

public.
1t is claimed that Moir has never met
a man against whom he was forced to
extend himself and that when he faces

advantage in reach.

Memories of he earlier days when the

edged home of professional boxing have
been revived by the prospects of great

Burns and Moir will meet in that his

pionship of the world THIS contest is

a feeling In some circles that Moir's

country schools. He came to Idaho in
1897. and in 1900 he married Miss Sarah
T. Davis of Riverside. They have two
children, and for the past two years
have lived IN the Kimball Addition OF
Blackfoot.
MIR. Fackrell was elected probate
Judge in 1904, and was re- elected IN l9O6
He is very studions and owes much OF
his education to his habit of reading
and self Improvement. In the campaign
of 1904 a very determined fight was
made against him on the ground that
he had never attended schoolvery much
and it was charged that he was incomp-
etent to handle the affairs of the office,
but the business of the Office has been
so we'll done that he had little opposl.
tion in the campaign of 1906, thus prov

VIM. Arave was born in Utah in 1851
and came to this valley in 1886. He set
tied southeast of Idaho Falls in what
developed into Taylor precinct. He brot
with him his family, having married
Miss Ida Clark in 1881. Mr.. Arave
helped build the first school house on
the plain below Idaho Falls, and has
since aided in building three others in
the territory comprised in the original
school district. He has served many
terms on the school board and as direct

Mr.. A. B. Moss in speaking of condi-

earnest and little enthusiastic about
it and added: "Anyone who will look
thru the institution carefully will be
impressed with the care and thoroness
with which all details are attended to,
and it is certainly credit to DR.. Hoov-

w. E. Smith, former editor OF the
Southern Idaho Mail, is publishing
newspaper at Philomath, Oregon. He
started on newspaper project at Cor
walls, but some joker sent to us for lot
of copies of the Idaho Republican dated
July 27, 1906, and when few copies
got out around town there was change
of plans.
We have received request for more
copies to go to Philomath, but we think
he has been punished enough.

The High School is very proud of its
new laboratory. The north recitation
room has been fitted out as complete
little workshop for the classes in chem
istry and physics. The cost at rough
estimate will probably amount to S45O
$3.50 for chemicals and supplies, the re-
mainder for carpenter work and plumb,
ing. We feel this is great step in ad'
vance and are grateful.
