Detroit. June lO.-President
Frank Navin of the Detroit American
says that when Ban Johnson. presi-
dent of the American league was here
last week he proposed an elaborate
plan for aiding down aud out ball
players, which was approved by the
American league president, and steps
have been taken to put it into opera
tion. Navin's proposal. he says, was
inspired by the present difficulties of
Adrian C. Anson Of Chicago. In
brief. it is this:
That once each year each club in
the American and National clubs des-
ignate some game in its schedule. the
gross receipts of which are to be
turned into a fund for the aid of eX-
ball players and other followers of
the game who are in straitened cir
cumstances, the game to be adyertis-
ed as a benefit, thus Increasing the
receipts The fund to be admins
tered by the national commission.
Each case to be investigated as to its
merits. All cases to be attended
individually. instead Of establishing
players home. the tentative scheme
being TO send monthly check to the
beneficiary.
The players of the teams competing
in the benefit games probably will
be asked to contribute small sums,
SO 10 So.
President johnson thought $780,
600 a year could be raised by this
means. He will bring it before the
national commission.

Resume of Wonderful Battle GiUen so
Enthusiasts can Figure Dope on
Fight With johnson

fight was described, impartially, fair
ly and comprehensively was the mill
described and not even Jeffries or
Fitzsimmons can give as good an ac-
count or an accurate an account of
the fight as we reproduce today on
the anniversary of the great fight in
the history of the world.
The story:
Jeffries is King The light Of
Fitz's glory went out in the eleventh
round of the worlds hardest fought
battle. at Coney Island. The young
giant of the West, a boy in age, is the
gladiator in strength and now holds
the title of King of the Arena.
The result was great surprise.
FitZsimmons fought gamely to the
end but ii was an uphill struggle and
he lost
Round 1.
Bob dances around Jeffries who
crouches as FitZ leads and the left
goes over the shoulder and a slight
clinch follows. They break Instantly
and Jeff is short on a left jab for the
head. There was more dancing and
fiddling. Jeff touching the chest with
the left and reaches the mouth with
the same glove, on Jeffries left, but

his left again but touches the wind

Round 4.
Jeff misses a left but ducks. Fitz
misses a left for stomach and Jeff
gets in a good right over the heart,
his left for wind is stopped but he
shoots a hard left for neck. Fitz
smiles and hooks a right to ear, Jeff
planting a sledge-hammer right over
the heart. Another miss of Fitz's s
right draws Jeff's right to the ribs.
Fitz puts n slight left to the mouth
and brings his right TO the ear. and
Jeff ducks into stiff left swing. He

Eleven years ago today the news
papers, who could afford 1t. printed
one OF the biggest newspaper stories
of history Twenty-four days from
today the opportunity will again be
presented to the publications of the
world. Then it was FitZsimmons-
.Ieffries now ii will be Jeffries-J ohm
son. a contest between youth and age,
then, and now a contest for suprem-
acy of the white VS.. the black race.
A.Sactly eleven years ago James j.
Jef.Ties defeated Bob Fitzsimmons
for the championship of the world
and now with an elapse of eleven
years the same mammoth physique
will battle a second time with the
eyes of the world fast upon him to a
second time wrest the worlds cham
pionship from another. Is II a posi-
bility that a sporting event could at
tract more worldwide attention than
the fight eleven years ago. If it is
then the elimination of that fact,
which has been heralded with thou
sands of columns of newspaper stor-
les. will occur July Fourth of this
year.
Were the newspaper stories which
nave been written In the last year on
the Jeffries-J ohnson fight pasted to-
gether in one long string, how many
times would they reach around the
world. How many millions of dollars
would 1t take to purchase a similar
amount of space and like amount of
publicity?
1t was not so long ago that the
famous Fitzsimmons-Jef effries fight
occurred, but what hundreds of peo-
pie remember it, but it is so long ago
that no writer not even Jeffries him
self, can remember exactly how it
happened. Where must we turn then
for an exact. BRIEF and impartial story
of the historic battle? Why to the

NO FIREPRoOF BUILDINGS.

There is no such thing as an
absolutely fireproof building These
words are from an editorial in the
Fireman's Herald, which also adds,
Promised security from fire cannot
be guaranteed This assertion will
come as surprise and disappoint-
ment to the general public which has
come to regard certain modern struc-
lures as perfectly safe so far as dan
ger from Fl rsei cmfwyphrsldccmfw
ger from fire is concerned. The
article from which the quotation is
made was suggested by the burning
out of several floors and the serious
damage to others In the recent fire in
large apartment house in New York
City, acknowledged to be one of the
latest and best types. 1t is true the
exterior of the building did not pre-
sent a decidedly wrecked appearance
after the conflagration.
THE expectation that a fire would
be confined to the room in which 1t
started, or to that floor, at most,
proved mistake. Apartments con-
tain, and are usually overcrowded
with, furniture and articles of an
extremely inflammable nature. When
once these commenced to blaze, the
heat was so intense as to extend
through the floor above and cause
another fire there. and so on to the
Top. The control and subjugation of
a fire in any large building chiefly
depends upon the carrying out of the
architects plan to confine the fire.
This contemplates the closing of all
doors and windows; but when occu-
pants are making a hurried exit,
many of them fail to observe the
rule.
las long as our rooms continue to
be filled with inflammable articles
just so long will our fireproof apart
ments be little more than slow burn
ing, although that condition is de-
cided step in advance, and ordinarily
would enable the escape of its occu-

Charles HI. SturGfs, of MiIbridge,
Shot Himself In Ellsworth.
Charles II. 6turgis, Of Milbridge, night
station agent at Washington Junction,
committed suicide in Ellsworth Monday
bafternooD, BY shooting. The body was
found lying beside Hale avenue, the pri-
vate road leading from the Eastern road

ington Junction less than two months.
He came here from Norridgewock, where
he had been station agent on the Somerset
road five years. For day or two before
his death he had been acting strangely,
and his mind was evidently unbalsuced.
His fellow-employees ct the station believe
he was despondent over losing his position
at Norridgewock.
Monday, soon after noon, he came to
Ellsworth and bought Q 22-calibre revol-
yer ct H. r. Wescott's about O'Clock. He
appeared rational whom in the store. He
was seen short time later walking back
and forth on the Eastern road near the
Weaver place, not far from where the
body wss found.
Al 3.30 o'clock, Charles Martin and
Colin Mckay, passing along the Eastern
road, saw the body lying at the side Of the
Hale road. The man had been dead but
short time. The revolver was grasped in
his right hand, and bullet hole in his
right temple plainly told the story. The
bullet had entered the brain.
Coroner d. L. Fields was notified, and
after viewing the body, ordered its re-
moval to L. w. Jordan's undertaking
rooms to await instructions from the
family. No inquest was deemed nee
essary.
In one pocket Of the dead man was
found note addressed to his wife, which
read: ~ want no funeral service OF any
kind"
Mr.. Sturgis was ffty-nine years Of age.
He was the son Of the late Ambrose
Sturgis, who many years ago was stage
driver for the Hales in Ellsworth, and
later was in the livery business in Cherry
field. Charles Sturgis, as . young man,
was fer several years employed as book
keeper for the Campbelis at Cherrydeld.

The Government VS.. Burrill.

In the case Of the government against
Burrill, an action involving title to the
land at the eastern end of the bridge next
to the postoffice in Ellsworth, the law
court, in q rescript just handed down,
finds for the government.
The case originated IN the municipal
court; was removed to the supreme court,
and was submitted to the determination
Of the presiding justice, with right OF ex-
ceptions. After removal and before hear
ing, the defendant added to his pleadings
by filing q claim for betterments. The
presiding justice ordered Judgment for
the plaintiff and the defendant excepted.
Held:
1. That the United States in its cor
porate capacity as body polite may
bring suits to protect its property in the
state courts or in its own tribunals ad-
ministering the same laws, and can main
tain this action Of forcible entry and de-
tainer.
2. That any possession Of the premises
by the defendant, though adverse in fact,
did not ripen into title because no title
of adverse possession can be acquired
against the United States except by
statute.
8. That claim for betterments cannot
be set up in actions Of forcible entry and
detainer, but only in real actions.
A. That no valid claim for betterments
can be set up against the United States
because betterments can only arise out Of
possession that would, by lapse Of time,
ripen into q title.
Exceptions overruled.
