LAS VEGAS, N. NJ, May 90
Jim Flynn, the fireman fighter
from Pueblo, is training for his
battle with Champion Jack John
son July 4, in this picturesque
city.
Flynn is overweight, according
to the plans of Manager Curly,
who saw to it that his charge
took on considerable beef before
he started hard work. Curly
wants to send Flynn into the ring
weighing as close to 200 pounds
as he can, and still have him good
enough to fight.

which comedies him little chance

Flynn, despite his rough ex-

earned fighting Sam Langford.

FOR PROBATE JUDGE

Hex. Montgomery Webster the pres
emit Judge of Probate OF Ionia county,
who has held the office so creditably
ever since his appointment after the
death OF his father Is again q candidate
and will undoubtedly receive re-nom-
ination and election for another term,
at least he ought to. In commenting
on his efficiency the Ionia Sentinel
says:
The Sentinel feels no hcsitancy In
taking this opportunity OF stating Its
position regarding the Office OF Judge oil
probate which we consider one OF the
important offices of the county. Not
only because the titles OF all land In
the county pass through this office on
the average OF once in twenty years
but as well on account Of the fact that
many responsible matters relating te
ins ine persons, incompetent persons
estates OF minors and others pass unde'
the Jurisdiction of the judge Of probate
10 is clearly in the interest OF estates
that the office should not depend up
on the frequent fluctuations due &c
national politics. The Sentinel takes
pleasure in assuring the people that II
is unqualifiedly in favor of the nomina
ton and election of Judge Webster
and has no doubt that the people o
Ionia county are Of the same opinion.

this vicinity to follow their example,

two out of the five were pronounced
