New York, December 20.-The one topic just now among followers of the pugi- listic game is the battle this week be-. tween Burns and Johnson in Australia for the worlds heavyweight champion ship.
 Burns, by the way, while not the great est fighter the world ever saw is un- doubtedly the worlds champion by right of prowess in the ring and by cleaner title than has been held for long time.
 The battle in Australia. therefore, will be real championship affair.
 Who will win the battle? That Is the question which is being asked You can get any sort of an answer you like.
 The best opinion here favors Burns, but some experts are confident that the big black will come back from the anti podes the champion of the world l note in some quarters a disposition to ques- tlon whether or not the fight will be on the level. There is every reason to be- lieve 1t will. I wouldn't gamble my head that either of the men are above fax ing the fight if they were shown 1t was to their advantage to do 1t but under the conditions as they are I do not believe either will take chances. If l recoleet alright 1t was Tommy Burns who after agreeing to lay down to Jack O'Brien turned around and smashed him to bits. Even, therefore, if there should be a disposition on the part of either Burns or Johnson to trade, neither could be

PARK TO BE OPENED FOR

TioN WILL BEGIN SHIP
MENT ON MONDAY

The work of opening for traffic the
Marr Coal Bank, is now completed.
Last Saturday the big cut that makes it
possible to quarry coal instead of having
to mine it underground was finished.
The incline track needed about IA half
days carpenter work and the driveway
under the tipple about the same time
for the grading crew. This means that
unless some unforeseen delay occurs
active mining for the trade could have
commenced yesterday.
The present storm has no doubt caused
some delay, but nothing definite can be
learned. there being no telephone or
mail service to Mr.. Marr's place How
ever. it is quite certain those two days
of work can be finished and bin full
of coal taken out yet this week, so that

A5sent-Minded Man clings to Strap
Though Seats Were Vacant.

A lean passenger with newspaper
climbed aboard car, looking as pre-
occupied as a man who is trying to
think where he put the receipt for that
bill that the mans dunning him for
over again.
He hitched himself up to strap,
put his paper in front of his face and
started to peruse the news Of busy
and vexatious world without saying
"nothin' to nobody" He did not even
look around.
By and by he had skinned through
the tidings chronicled in the paper and
he showed the sheet into his overcoat
pocket.
Then he made discovery. The dis
coyery was as follows, viz: There
were only eight other passengers on
the car. OF course there were plenty of
seats and had been ever since he got
on. He looked sort of foolish when he
noticed that everybody was smiling
quietly about something. You see it
looked funny to see man wearily
holding on to a strap when there were
seats to be had at the same price as
s. R. o. space.
Shows what habit'll do for fel-
low" the lean preoccupied passenger
muttered. I'm used to getting on the

All they ask is for Nevada 10 have
what money it can raise on the

ton opens and the management Will
take care of all the exhibits it sends
there in the meantime
This is good news for the Nevada
miners and assures the success Of
