his trainers told me this morning. For

dysentery the result of his drinking

San Francisco and 1T was the same

weeks; even in the ring there was

been drinking mountain water at Ro-

We had all been drinking the same

Jeffries might have put UP a little

the match was made, At the same
time, he didn't show in the right form

ANNUAL REPORT ON NM.
HIGH SCHOOL MADE.
Principal Eaton Rev ews Years Work
and Makes Valuable Suggestion.

Salt Lake. July 6.--Principal George
A. Eaton of the high school has filed
his report for the school year 1909
1910 with City Superintendent Of
Schools ID. II. Christensen. in which
he reviews at longth the credtable
work of the high school in the year
and makes number of important sug-
sestions with reference TO the school.
The recent action of the board looking
toward complete equipment in the
domestic science and mechanic arts
departments be considers encourag-
Ing.
In regard to the new high school
site. Mr. Eaton expresses the hope
that IT will be such, as 10 give free
scope for outdoor activities, which
constitute an important part in school
life at this Stnge. He also suggests
that the site selected should not be
too close to the business center. yet
II should be convenient OF access for
the pupils
Principal Eaton comments favorab-
ly ON the high school congress
The high school cadets come In for
a warm compliment
AS TO the campus at the high
school the report expresses the de-
sire that 1t shall be completed b.
next fall, that tho school may have a
regulation athletic field, This is need
ed by reason Of the fact that tho
high school has been excluded from
using the university athletic field.
Principal Eaton takes exceptions to
the system OF handling books for sale
for high school use, requiring reports
of the sales at stipulated times and
compelling all losses 10 be made good
by the principal. He claims that the
responsibility Of this book business
should not be part OF principals
duties If he IS expected to do his
other legitimate work well.

pApke WON IN EASY MANNER.

The Boston Herald contains the
following interesting account of the
Papke.Sulliyan battle:
Billy Papke. former middleweight
champion of the world, defeated Jack
(Twin) Sullivan in II rounds at the
Armory A. A. in the last show OF the
season Papke the youthful, found
the foxy twin rather troublesome
customer for the latter played in

eral times II looked as II the Twin
was due 10 go out but he repeatedly
pulled himself together and got back
hard with short ripping drives that
bothered Papke long enough TO let
Twin get his wits working again.
Papke's all-round attack was
superb. but he was badly handicapped
by Sulliyan's style of holding Papke
was by no means gentle in his treat
ment OF Twin, and on more than one
occasion there appeared to be unne-
cessary force In the way Papke
slammed his head into Twins breast
aud then raised 1t with half butt

In the third round Twin shifted his
tactics so that he was the first TO
get his head home and in one Of
these clashes Papkes eve was cut

ton and he cut loose with lett hooks

UTAH COLORADO
COAL FIELDS

Some OF the most important west
ern coal fields that have been exam
ined and mapped by the geological
survey in the course OF its work OF
classifying The public lands are In
Colorado. The survey has Just issued
as Bulletin 315. n report by Hoyt D
Gale on the coal fields of northwest
ern Colorado and northeastern Utab.
Large parts OF the areas described
by Mr.. Gale are still public lands,
for as the region examined is some
what remote from railroads 1t is as
yet rather sparsely settled. The val
ley of the upper Yampa river is now
reached by the "MoTat' road, which
was completed as far as Steamboat
Springs about year ago. 1t is re-
ported that this road will soon be
continued westward and its proposed
route Is shown on the maps In this
report. The report also gives descrip-
tions and unbiased estimates of the
most important resources OF the coun-
try adjacent TO this new road for a
distance along its route of over 100
miles and Is therefore particularly
timely and interesting.
The bulletin contains five new topo-
graphic and geographic maps. which
are similar in form to the geological
surveys topographic atlas sheets. AL
though not complete nor final as com
pared with the surveys standard
maps. they probably will he for some
time the best available maps OF the
areas they cover.
The report describes the general
geology OF the region and points out
the relations of the coal-bearing rocks
TO the other strata In these fields and
In the adjoining areas Each area that
is likely to be developed as a large
commercial field is described separ-
ately. The descriptions follow the
public land survey units-that Is, they
are given In order by townships. with
reference to sections and areas with.
in townships.
Most of the data showing the num-
Der and thickness OF coal beds were
obtained at prospect openings. Sut-
flcient Information has been collect
ed to prove beyond doubt the great
value of these lands and to afford
general estimates of the amount OF
available coal they contain.
The bulletin includes a table show
ing the results OF 80 analyses OF rep
resentatlve samples of the Goals. These
samples were collected In the course
of the survey OF the field and were
analyzed in the governments labor
atories. The table Of analyses is so
70 mi Hu ri
son Of Goals from different parts OF
the areas described. The analyses
are accompanied by Il BRET discussion
of the meaning and Interpretation OF
analyses of coal-and general esti-
mate of the quality OF the Goals in
these fields.
The greater part OF the best coal
in this general region may be classed
as high-grade bituminous. The coal
from few districts shows higher
oalorific value and that from others
must be classed as sub. .btuminous or
Ignite. The ash is normal. ranging
from to 10 per cent the percentage
OF sulphur Is low. Most of the Goals
are high in volatile combustible mat
ter. so that skillful firing and ef-
flcient furnace construction are need
ed to produce the best results.
