my Burns. the American heavyweight
six rounds to knock out Bill LanS, or
Australia, here today. The bout was
scheduled 10 be a twenty-five round
affair.
Burns had 10 bring all Of his clever
ness into play 10 down the Australian
Time and again the American was
forced around the ring and had &c cover
up in order TO ward off Lang's blows
Lang made a favorable showing during
the first few rounds, but tired fast.
Sums, by this time, had reSaIned MS
strength and went after has opponent
with a determination to land Knock
out. IN this hG was not successful funul
the sixth, when Lang was all in Burns
outEeueraIed his man after the first Few
rounds and it was a matter Of time
when the antipodean would 60 down
for the count.
The bout was witnessed by q large
delegation of American sailors of the
American battleship fleet which now Is
in port here Burns was the favorite
in the betting and the tars backed him
10 the limit.
The bout proved that Burns would be
a mere toy in the hands OF Jack john
son. the burly black heavyweight of
America. Johnson put Lang away in
one punch when the two met here a
short time ago. Lang has no class
whatsoever and if ne could stand off
Burns for six rounds Johnson snOuld
have little trouble in disposing OF the
An. erican champion.
Bin Squires. the Australian who has
thrice been knocked out by Burns. was
al the ringside and challenged the win
ner- Burns will undoubtedly grasp the
chance TO gather a little more easy
money.

CONDITION BLAMED

"Old Master" Thinks He Can Turn
Tables on Nelson on Ad-
mission DaV,
mission Day

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 3.-Yesterday
was a red letter day at Cans Alameda
quarters, the crowd in attendance being
unusually large
Among those present were John p
Clark. Sam Berger. Eddie Graney and
other prominent sports Of San Fran
cisco, who were eager to see the ex-
champion ia action, and get a line on
his chances on the Admission Day fight
Cans boxed five rafting rounds with
Johnny Murphy. He stepped three
rounds with Abe Attell. but this was
more of an exhibit on of refined fisticuns
than anything else. the two clever ex-
ponents of the game contenung them
selves with light tapping
Cans is now attributing his downfall
to lack Of condition, rather than TO the
other fellows S superiority. He has been
heard 10 say recently that il was no
great achievement for Nelson 10 win on
the Fourth of July. The one point TO be
gathered from this Is that Cans thinks
he will be both forceful and fast on
Admission Day and that ne Will turn
the tables on the Dane.

HEAVY RAINFALL
Big Storm Of the Past Week Raise.
Rainfall Record for October
Nearly One and One Half
Inches. Highest in Years

This fall has been unusually rainy
and the past week has seen the record
Of rainfall for the month raised fully
1.54 inches. 1t started in to rain SUM
day evening and all day Monday and
Monday night it poured at intervals,
The storm was rather out of the ordinary
but was not unwelcome to those farmers
who had finished threading and were
ready for their fall blowing. The effects
Of 80 much rain will be felt throughout
the winter.
As published in the Press last week.
the rainfall for this year has been q
record breaker. The total rainfall for
the 1c months Of the year up to last
week was 1915, inches During Sunday
night and Monday a total of lisa inches
of water was recorded at the experiment
station, which, with the rain recorded
the middle of last week, brings the Octo-
Der record for 1908 up to 2.47 inches.
This is the greatest for the month for ten
years, there being 2.73 inches during
October in 1898. G
This makes the total for the year Is. 4S
inches whereas in 1898 it was only IL
inches. This is probably about the
record for the year, for precipitation
during November and December is,
ordinarily, very light. Accordingly it
is doubtful if the record for the next
two months will any more than bring
the years total to 10 inches. However,
there is no telling what might happen
and another storm like that of the past
week would not be contrary to laws of
nature. All that the Slope country needs,
say the farming experts, is more rain
fall, and this year, at least, seems to be
answering their cry and farmers every
where are rejoicing.

the cashiership of the Merchants Nation
al Bank of Dickinson, N. D., whittier he
expects to move about the 18TH of Nov
ember. Mr.. Eyer came to the First Ma
tional from the Dakota National of Dick
inson upon the organization of the local
bank, May 10Th, and during the few
months has gained a wide circle of &C
quaintance who have exemplifed their
confidence in his ability as a banker and
personal regard by their assistance in
building up the institution of which he
has charge to one of considerable mag
nitude. MI. and Mrs. Eyer were just
getting settled in their beautiful new
home and the friendships they have
formed are of such lasting character that
their departure will be felt as a material
loss.
The new position which Mr.. Eyer will
assume is a distinct promotion, not only
in a much more lucrative way, but will
return him to the town where he former
Fly occupied a position as bank teller and
he goes to the Merchants National after
the officers have canvassed a large field
to find the banker measuring up to the
standard required. 1t is, therefore, with
no little pride that lsmay relinquishes
MI. Eyer from its business circle, though
we deeply regret his contemplated de.
parture.
