DENlS0N LOSES TO
COUNCIL BLUFFS
One of the Hardest Fought Football
Battles Played at Council!
Bluffs This Year.
Denison Makes Some Remarkable
Plays During Game, Showing Ex-
ceIIent Training

COuIlCl1 bluuS lOOh Tie game Odlul :
day afternoon from the Denison high
school by score OF 13 to 6 in one of
the hardest fought battles on the
Thirty-fourth street field this year.
The teams were Wen matched and
there was not a certain moment for
either team during the whole game.
The crowd was sinai but enthusiastic
and the sidelines entered into the
sport with as much Zest as the play
erS.
During the first quarter no score was
made by either squad, the teams hold
ing we'll to center with no great gains.
Denison's line was much better than
the local aggregation's, but their back
was hardly as powerful. At times a
line smash from Denison would tear
through the Council Bluffs line in a
fierce manner only to be nailed by
one of the three huskies playing back.
At the last minute in the first the ball
was carried up within ten yards of
Denison's goal by clever play on the
part of the local men.
Score in Second Half.
In this position the game was hard
ly started in the second half before
persistent center plays began to count
for Council Bluffs, and in the third
down "Huck" Barton, the plucky lit
tie full for the locals, ripped through
and carried the ball just over the line.
The goal kick was "fluke" and the
score stood to in favor of the Bluffs.
In the third quarter Denison made
good on a fast erback-rOund-end
play and crossed the Bluffs goal.
O'Connor was the quarter and his
touchdown was only sampel OF his
playing throughout the game. He was
fast and easily star for Denison. Their
goal kick also failed and the score was
tied. In the same play wink" Bar
ton, the Bluffs left half, who had been
doing some excellent playing, was laid
out. He made the foundation for a
"pile up" and his left leg was badly
sprained.
Expose Weak Spots.
In the last quarter Council Bluffs
was on the defense most of the time
their opponents bucking down find
ing the weak spots easily. Too much
individual playing with the Council
Bluffs men spoiled the team work and
gave Denison the advantage. A bad
tumble for Denison and the ball be-
longed to the locals. Scrimmage work
was unsuccessful and forward pass
was put into play. Underwood at
quarter "shot" it out to Mcintyre, left
end, and he tore across the goal line
with hands down. The kick was per
| feet and the score was 13 to 6. With
but three minutes to play the bal
moved but little after being kicked tc
Denison and the whistle caught Coun
Gil Bluffs in good gain towards the
goal. ?
The teams were lined up in the fol
lowing order:

DEATHS IN MINES
SHOW DECREASE
Statistics Indicate Precautionary
Measures by Government Are
Having Good Effect

'foNfffH ~hSNA hUNSh
Washington, July 2.---That the high
tide in the terrible death rate In
American coal mines has been reach
cd and passed is the confident belief
Of officials CT the United States 81.
reau Of Mines.
Figures issued yesterday by the bu-
reau show that 2.517 men were killed
In mines asst year, as against 2,Sa4 hi
1910. This shows reduction In the
number Of lives lost OF 3i7 In one
year. The death rate in 1910 was S.91
men in every 1000 employed. The
rate IN 1911 was 3.74.
Compared with 1907, the darkest
year in the history of American min
ing, when 3,197 men lost their lives,
1911 shows decrease Of $50 In the
number of men killed 1t was follow
ing the record Of this year that Con-
gres authorized the government to
begin Investigations looking toward
reduction in the death rate. and this
was supplemented in 1910 by the Gre
alton Of the Bureau of Mines
Discussing the death statistics of
the coal mines, DR.. Joseph A. Holmes,
director of the Bureau OF Mines, yes.
terday said:
while these latest mortality sta
tistics in the coal mines Of the coun-
try show slight Improvement over
previous years, the United States has
still no record to be proud of In spite
OF the progress we have made, We are
still far below the standard of safety
that we ought to have reached.
ut is, of course, comforting to
know that for each year since 1907
there has been a decreasing number
of men killed for every 100000 tons
of coal mined, and that for every lifs
lost we have each year taken out OF
the earth more tons of coal This Is
an Improvement in the right direction
| hope that within the next year or
two we will see as great an improve
ment in the reduction Of the number
of men killed per 1000 men employed
the reduction of the number OF men
killed per 100 men employed"
1t was early in 1903 that the FEEDER
al government began its investigation
of the causes of mine disasters fol
lowing the climax of accidents in 1907
The record for 1907 and the following
years is as follows.
1907-3,197 men killed, or 4.SS in

Las Vegas. N. NJ, July 5. - Jack
Johnson IL still the champion of the
world, not because he proved himself
the better man In his fight with Jim
Flynn, the Pueblo fireman.

the reason that Flynn lost his head
when he had the big fellow on the
run and made II necessary for the
police to jump Into the ring In the
ninth round.
Referee Ed Smith then gave the
fight to Johnson, not because of the
fouling tactics OF Flynn, but because
he figured that the black had out
pointed the challenger in the rounds
that had gone before.
Flynn, bearing in at every oppor
tunity, was hammering at the stonl
aeh OF the champion. And his blows
were telling, too. And beginning with
the seventh round the black began tc
hold. The smile disappeared from his
visage The champion held through
out the eighth. But Flynn, whose
strong point has never been cafmness
seeing a possible victory. began tc
fight with his head as well as with the
strength of his powerful arms and
shoulders. He began to butt. RefereC
Smith cautioned him time after time.
This was the situation when the
ninth round dawned Flynn bored II
and then he lost his head. and instead
OF Fighting he renewed his butting
Suddenly there was a eommotion The
police were entering the ring. AND
once within the ropes the fight wal
stopped
Pandemonium reigned No one knew
what had happened. The police sale
the fight could not continue. 1t was
up to the referee to make some de
cision. He lifted the arm OF the blacl
man. The thousands knew that John
son was still champion of the world.
