tBy Associated Press.l

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 14.-Jack
Johnson and Stanley Ketchel, the
principals in Saturdays match for the
heavyweight championship, spent
strenuous day in their respective
training camps. Neither needed any
additional work for both are in the
pink of condition, but they worked
furiously under the command of the
moving picture operator, who spent the
greater part of the day in taking pic
lures which will be used as an intro
duction to the real fight pictures.
Ketchel has surprised the pugilistic
world by announcing that he will not
carry the fight to his opponent, as has
been his custom in all of his previous
matches. He declares Johnson, as the
champion, must do the leading and he
says that he will not tear into the big
fellow unless the latter shows unex-
pected weakness from the start.
VIII johnson Do It
On the other hand, Johnson's man.
ager asserts that his man will go after
Ketchel from the sound of the gong
to score an early knockout.
When reminded that the picture
privilege might suffer if an early
knockout resulted, Little declared that
even the prospect of this would not
prevent the champion putting his man
down in the first round for the count,
If possible.
Although no change in the odds oc-
cured, it is believed at the poolrooms
that the flow of short-end money which
began will soon cause shortening of
the price.
Pick ketchel to Stay
Considerable money is being wagered
at evens, that Ketchel will stay Is
rounds.
Both Of the fighters are palpably
nervous on the eve of the battle and
of the two Ketchel seems to show the
greater strain. Johnson weighed today
and tipped the beam at 1876 pounds,
two pounds lighter than he expects to
be when he cra@ls through the ropes on
Saturday. Ketchel remains at his an
nounced weight Of ia pounds. This
he declares to be his natural weight,
and the point at which he feels the
strongest.

NATIONS AFFAIRS DI-
 RECTED FROM PRESCOTT
From Saturdays DaIly)

Last Wednesday evening Prescott was the seat of government of tho nation and a significant official trans action by the executive on that day gives this city that unique and his toric distinction. One of the most i'm. poFtant diplomatic questions was coz. sidercd and disposed of as soon as President Taft reached the city and to corroborate the unusual event a telegram to Secretary Carpenter at Washington bears the date of this city on the question of the recall of Minister Crane, who was to leave the city of San Francisco the day following when a change was de- sired in the selection of his dOplo- matic post.
 The following is the text of the As sOciated Press telegram on the all absorbing question of the minister s indiscreet conduct in permitting grave questions to reach the public ear at such an inopportune time and the closing of the incident by dismissal, which was concluded in this city inn mediately after President Taft ar rived:
 WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. H. All doubt of the action the president will take in the Crane matter was dispelled by the receipt this morning of a dispatch from Taft addressed to Secretary Carpenter directing him to convey to Crane the announcement that his resignation is accepted. y
 PRESCOTT, Ariz., Oct. 13.-'Con- vey to Crane the following: I con- eur in the letter dated October 12, which the secretary of state address ed to you, and I greatly regret that the circumstances found to exist by him make it necessary that we accept your resignation.

OFFICIALS DECLINED
 TO ACCEPT ANY FEES
From Sundays pailyl

UT OdllgJ
 Yesterday in the probate court the final account of Jacob Ritter, guar dian of the estate of Clara Ritter, a minor, were allowed, approved and settled.
 The guardian was charged with having received since the last set clement the sum of $1,473.95, and credited with having paid out the sum of $223.95. He was also credit ed with having paid to his ward the sum of $1,250, the balance due from the estate, which sum she received yesterday, having attained her ma jOrity.
 In connection with this estate an interesting statement is made public through the closing of it. Miss Rit- ter was a daughter of the late John V. Ritter, who passed away in 1894, leaving his entire property to his daughter. She was at that time but child of tender years and her grandfather, Jacob Ritter, assumed charge of her interests and remained in that relation up to yesterday, when he officially turned the estate over to her.
 In all the years that MT. Ritter has performed the duties of that posi- tion, he has done so without a cent of expense, although the law per mitted him fees. This right he re- fused to exercise, desiring that the little girl when she reached legal age, should have the right of every cent that was bequeathed.
 In that generous consideration ex- tended Miss Ritter yesterday, so did Probate Judge Hicks figure promi- nently, this official refusing to ac- cept any peeuniary consideration whatever, although the law specifics that he was entitled to fees in many channels of the estate administered.
 Miss Ritter stated yesterday that with the money she receives from the estate of her father, she will invest every cent of it in Prescott and in a few days will close a deal for a house and lot as an investment She is the daughter of Mrs. Joseph Dough erty and since her fathers death nearly fifteen years ago, has remain ed constantly with her mother in this city.
 Other transactions in the probate court yesterday was the return of the inventory and appraisement of the es- tate of the late J. F. Doeler, which was filed and recorded. This estate consists of cash in bank, shares of the capital stock of the Arizona Brewing company of Prescott, shares of stock in mining companies in Montana and South Dakota, and one mining claim situated in the Quartz Mountain district near Prescott, all of which interests are appraised at the sum of $5,s6S.11. MT. Decker will be remembered as an employe of the Arizona Brewing company and pass ed away in California last August He had been in poor health for some months and went to that state in the hope of a change of climate bene- fitting him.
 Mrs. Mary Lasswell, guardian of the estate of George Lee Michael, a minor, was granted an order yester- day by the probate court to sell the interest of the minor in an insur- anee policy issued by the Conneeti- cut Mutual Life Insurance company, running to a one-sixth interest therein

BUILD ICE SKATING RINK
FOR ALL-YEAR SERVICE
Novelty Promised for Los Angeles by
Company That Has Just Been In
corporated - LeIande and
Berry Interested

Skating on ice every day and evening
in the year will be a novelty perrnissi-
bic in Los Angeles within three months
through plans just perfected by a COM
pany headed by City Clerk Harry Lee
lande, Henry Berry and J. B. Lehigh.
According to Mr.. Lehigh's figures 80
per cent of the persons living in Los
Angeles have never seen ice skating
or hold it as so far back a memory that
they have almost forgotten what 1t is
like.
The company, which filed articles Of
Incorporation Friday as the Chutes
Park Ice Skating Rink company, will
spend over $4,000 in putting up a spe-
cially constructed building and equip
ping it to provide ice skating both win
ter and summer The building will be
put up on the Chutes park midway, and
will contain a Aston and a 15-ton COM
pressor, with power from a 40-horse-
power motor. The minimum skating
space will be 5Ox1O0 feet, and the build
the temperature low enough to pre-
serve the ice, regardless of the tenn
perature outside.
Ice skating Kinks have been estab-
lished in other cities, but none has
heretofore been operated every day i'll
the year. The cool nights will permit
reSurfacing the floor as easily in sum-
mer as in winter, feature which has
been found impracticable in eastern
cities because of the humidity and
warmth of the night air. The manag-
ers of the company believe it will be
easier to keep the surface In condition
in summer than in winter If any diff
ference is found noticeable.

Water. The Only Re-

Water Obtainable
in This Vicinity

Every family should have on hand
at all times a supply of reliably pure
drinking water. 1t is just as essential
to continued good health as an album
dant supply of pure, wholesome food.
Hundreds of physicians in Los An
geles realize the truth of this fact They
are regular users of Puritas Distilled
Water, having it supplied to their own
families and recommending Puritas in
their practice.
Our city water is not desirable for
drinking purposes. Z 1t contains con-
siderable amounts of mineral impure
ties, entirely dissolved in the water.
These minerals become deposited in
the arteries when city water is con-
stantly used for drinking, causing
rheumatics and kidney troubles
Puritas Distilled Water is soft, pure
water. 1t does not contain minerals
or any impurities whatsoever 1t is
twice distilled, aerated with pure ozone
and bottled so carefully that it reaches
you pure, and will remain pure, if the
demijohn is carefully corked when not
in use, until the last glassful Of water
has been consumed.
Puritas is inexpensive; gallons cost
but 40c. Just telephone us, Exchange
