To the Citizens of DEBORAH.

We would consider 1t great favor
IL, when you see a street light out,
you would notify us. 1t is imprac-
ticable for us to examine each of the
street lights every night, and by
notifying us, service will be resumed
with the least possible delay. We
will be very glad to know when
lights are out, because we wish to
give a continuous and satisfactory
service, and because we get no pay
for street lights when out.
IL Respectfully,
Upper Iowa Power Co.

Window Smashers.

Some time during Sunday night
someone smashed the big glass pane
in the front door of e. B. Olson's
store, making hole large enough
for a person to go through. Who
ever it was probably was frightened
away and did not enter as Mr.. Olson
informed us that he saw no evidence
of their having been inside. -Calmar

O'Rourke After Bout.

Tom O'Rourke of New York Is
ready to advance $4,000 to johnson
for a ten round bout, according to
the champion. O'Rourke has neither
named date nor opponent, but 1t Is
expected that the winners OF the
Carl Morris-Tom Kennedy and AL.
Palzer-Al Kaufman bouts will be
p.tted together and the winner OF
that battle will be asked to get into
a ring with Johnson. O'Rourke evil
IDENTIFY realizes that Jim Flynn would
be no match for the winner of the
Reno fiasco and also can see the
worth of products raised at home.
Kennedy, Palzer and Morris are
we'll known to the New York fans.
Each of the three has been coming
strong in The last few months in the
boxing world and their boosters
would like nothing better than to see
them in a real battle with real
champion. Johnson has trimmed
Kaufman, easily. but has never met
any of the others. Morris and Ken
nedy are nearer the size OF Johnson
and should give him battle in ten
rounds.
Johnson reiterated his desire to
give some one chance at the title,
and also told again his desire for
car fare" He does not think that
100000 is too much. He asserts that
all the champions have had their
price and sees no reason why he
should not. He admits that holding
the heavyweight title Is as good job
financially as being president of the
United States. Also, he wishes 1t
known that he does not want to lose
his job unless paid we'll for the loss.

Is Real IOwan.

Iowa fight enthusiasts will rejoice
in the fact that the state has, for
the first time in the history of the
ring game. produced a contender for
the heavyweight championship Of the
world. Palzer is native. He was
born near DEBORAH and reared there
until he joined the navy as recruit
and received his training for the
ring while in the service of the gov
ernment. After first breaking into
the game in the east last spring and
subsequent to his defeat of Tom Ken
nedy, Palzer returned to DEBORAH and
spent some weeks there with his rela-
tives. 1t is peculiar coincidence
that on the same night that Frank
Gotch, Iowa's only champion, an
nounced his retirement from the
wrestling game, the state should &C
quire the honor of another cham
pionship possibility in the pugilistic
game.-Des Moines Register and
Leader.

Will Avoid johnson.

1t is safe bet that the veteran
O'Rourke will not commit the blund-
-er of matching his protege against
the willy Johnson until he has had
opportunity for further development.
A wonderful punch is an invaluable
asset of course, but it must not be
forgotten that the champion also has
kick and is one of the cleverest of
ring generals in lie bargain. Pal
ger can afford to wait even year If
necessary for his chance. in the
meantime working against the best
of the white heavyweights and add
ing to his knowledge of the game.
Johnson is steadily going back and
in another year would be less dan
gerous while the Iowa fighter should
in the same length of time double
his effectiveness.

requisite kick for sleep producer.
Ring fans are already proclaiming
the advent of another star in the
pugilistic armament and one who
promises class equal to the great bat
tiers Of decade ago.
Best of White Hopes.
Palzer already has been accorded
first place among the legitimate
white hopes by the eastern critics
and a general demand is being made
that the Iowa fighter be given pref
erence over Flynn in battle with
the champion. Flynn leaped from
obscurity about year ago by de-
feating Kaufman, but the Californ-
ian at that time was admittedly out
of condition and taken by surprise
by his opponent. Thursday night
marked his first appearance in the
ring since that occasion and he was
trained to the minute in an effort to
make showing which would re-
establish him in his old place as the
legitimate contender for the cham
pionship. Palzer showed some indi-
cation of his ability in the initial
round when he fioored Kaufman
twice with terrific punches, the first
one within few seconds after the
clang of the bell.
Match Flynn and Palzer.
A match between Flynn and Pal
ger now seems the logical move. An
engagement between these two would
probably draw better than with john
son pitted against either of them. 1t
should prove a corking attraction and
give the fans their moneys worth.
Both are of the slugger type, neither
depending on science or speed to win
for them. Either is willing to take a
stiff punch in exchange for an OPP
portunity to slip over a haymaker.
falZer has the advantage, however,
in that he Is yOungster compared
with the Pueblo fireman." and with
proper handling, which he undoubt-
eddy will get under the careful eye
of Tom O'Rourke, should improve
rapidly and pick up on many of the
points on which he is now weak.
Flynn already has been defeated by
the knockout route by Johnson,
Kaufman and Burns. Palzer has suf-
fered but one reverse and that at the
hands of Tom Kennedy, who fell vic
tim Wednesday night to Carl Morris.
Palzer has record of a previous VIC
tory over Kennedy on knockout and
according to reliable critics should
have had the verdict in their last
meeting,

AL. Palzer of DEBORAH. Ia, won un-
dying fame Thursday night and as
surance of consideration as the next
opponent of Jack Johnson for the
heavyweight championship Of the
world, by slipping over knockout
punch on AL. Kaufman in the fifth
round of scheduled ten round bout
before the National Sporting club of
New York. Palzer with that one
punch, established himself as for
midable white hope and gave renew
ed courage to those who have been
struggling for almost two years to
develop a fighter capable of beating
Jeffries' conqueror. The Iowan's
showing was surprise even to his
most enthusiastic supporters who
were fearful Of the outcome of a bat
tie with the veteran Kaufman. He
demonstrated, however, what none
of the other contenders has been able
to show, that he is possessed of the
