Paris, Idaho, April 15-The money
panic through which we have been
passing has left its bad effects recorded
in bold type on the official records of
Bear Lake County. During flush times
hundreds of yonng men were taking to
themselves wives and at one time there
was some talk of employing another
deputy for the purpose of taking charge
of this particular work. But the panic.
the great money panic that has brought
sorrow to the homes of so many bund-
reds of families, has somewhat changed
the plans in the Auditors Office, as there
was only five applications for marriage
licenses during the last three months.
II the preachers DEF ended entirely on
their fee for performing marriage cere-
monies, as means of living they would
all have went bankrupt during the
quarter just ended.
The doctors have been doing better.

that there has been "a births, and 10

BIG FIGHTERS
ARE READY FOR
THE BIG BATTLE
Burns Is Slight Favorite In Bet

ion Has Many BackerS Who
Believe He Will Win.

SYDNEY, n. S. w, Dec. 24.-Tom-
my Burns. who fell heir to the heavy.
weight championship title of James
j. 1effries, and Jack johnson, who mas
been generally recognized as the best
OF the eolored heavyweights since the
days OF Peter Jackson. have put the
flnlshing touches to their work of
preparation and are ready TO step into
tho ring 10 battle for the worlds
heavyweight championship IN the sta
dium In this city. Both men appear
70 be in the very pest of condition
Burns has trained With his usual care
and energy. and johnson. realizing the
Important results hinging ON the bat,
tie, has trained as he never trained
before.
Burns will enter the ring a slight
fayorite unless there is sudden and
unexpected switching OF the odds be-
fore the gong sounds. The rumors cir
culated Ia America that the fight may
be fixed" are not credited here. The
general opinion in sporting circles
here IS that the fgsit VIII be strictly
on the level and that each man has
about an equal chance of winning. De
spite the prowess he has displayed IN
his Australian bouts Burns is not so
much a fayorite as fright naturally be
expected. He has a strong following,
but johnson also has made many
friends since his arrival in Sydney be-
cause of his hard trsInig and general
appearance.
The stock of Burns has suffered
somewhat from the opinion of Bob
Fitzsimmons, the old Australian fight
er, which has been cabled here. IN
the opinion of Fitzsimmons, Johnson
will be successful, tor the reason that
the negro is a terrific puncher is
heavier and more clever than Burns
and consequently can go any distance.
As the battle will be TO a finish Fitz
simmons believes that Johnson can
take his time and hy reason OF a bet
ter physique can wear Burns down.
johnson has u longer reach, is con-
siderGbly heavier and nearly six
inches talleIs than Burns. Whether he
can hit harder or not is q matter OF
opinion. for both are known to have
a stiff punch. But Burns Is acknowl
edged TO OuiClass Johnson in one thing
that is the most essential in the ring
Il is in the knowledge of the fighting
game and ring generaiship that Burns
excels. And this excellence, in the
opinion of his admirers. ought to win
him the fight.
The champion is as confident as can
be over the result. He declares that
he will be able to pnI away the black
man inside of ten rounds. Reports of
