Ru|n@ed Change In
Prince Con. Company

There was persistent report cur
rent on Saturday that there is either
pending or concluded a deal whereby
prominent Salt Lake banking and
mining interests are to acquire or
have acquired the control of the
Prince Consolidated company, says
the Salt Lake Tribune. The reports
are somewhat varying in their pur-
port, but it is insisted that the
rlice per a. are involved :. rlcs4 10
the presa,. market range of the s,osk
somewhere around 40 cents a share,
and that it has been this deal that
has given the stock for several days
past the activity and strength enjoy
ed on the Salt Lake Stock & Mining
exchange.
The largest shareholders Of the
Prince Consolidated company are the
Godbe brothers of Salt Lake and
Colonel James Hackett of Louisville.
How many shares are involved in
the deal, report fails to signify, bat
that it gives the new interests q
comfortable margin beyond actual
control is asserted in most posi-.

By virtue Of q deal that failed OF
consummation several months ago
the control of this organization was
to have been secured by the Charles

Miller was acting for the bond
holders of the property, and his

I came across an article tele-

New Treatment For
Typhoid Fever

San Francisco, Oct. "a. "A new
treatment for typhoid fever,
based on the injection of a serum
drawn from typhoid GONZALES
cents, was announced here to-day
by Dr. George 4. Carson of the
Southern Pacific Hospital at the
annual convention of the Pacific
coast railway surgeons.
Nov that prophylactic vac
cination against typhoid has been
proved successful" said DIR. Car
son, next must follow some
curative agent, vaccine, serum
or chemical combination which
shall rob typhoid of its terrors.
/ feel that we are now on the
threshold of it's discovery and
that we shall soon be able to
abort typhoid. "
Typical typhoid cannot be pro-
duced among animals, DIR. Car
son explained, hence his recourse
to the blood of convalescents who
had acquired immunity by their
victory over the disease.
DR.. Carson's research work is
financed by Mrs. e. H. Harri-
man, widow Of the late railroad
magnate who provided a $50, 900
fund for the purpose.

Especial to the newark start

PROVIDENCE, r. l., June g.
Though the Newark Club fought vail
antly to win the first game of the Sc
ries from Providence here yesterday
the odds were against the Bengals,
almost from the start, and Providence
won by q score of "a. Newark made
a rally with two out in the ninth in
ming, but the Tigers fell one run shy
of tieing the score.
Raleigh Aitchison, who pitched for
Newark, did not have his usual line
of stuff yesterday. He had been
warming up the previous day at
Newark for three OF four innings,
during the Jersey CityANewark over
time tussle, and then he could not get
his shoots to work properly in the
critical moments. LATTE, who tossed
for the home team, was hit safely
nine times.
The Newark twlrler had one bad
inning-the fourth-when three tallies
were recorded by the Grays. In addi-
ton to the Tigers hard luck Myers
missed his daily hit for the first time
In fortnight.
Bill Collins, who broke up the game
the day before with pinch hit and a
run, nearly succeeded duplicating the
same stunt yesterday. Batting for
Aitchison in the ninth inning, Col
Inns singled and started a rally, scor-
ing one of the two tallies Newark
made in this round.
At the end of the third inning New
ark was leading by a FL score. That
was the only time the Tigers were in
front The Grays came back IN the
fourth and tailed thrice. assuming
the lead. Higgins started the third
round by beating out hit to Ems.
Aitchison was out for bunting foul
third strike. Dalton singled, only to
be forced by Gagnier, who then stole
second base. w. Zimmerman singled,
scoring Higgins and Gagnier.

tions of the third inning Mitchell

Leach, After Seven Years of
Battling, Is Better Than
Ever.
PHIL is AMONG THE BEST
IN WELTERWEIGHT RANKS
And Both Have Professions to
Fall Back on When They
Quit Ring.

Although boxing nearly seven
years and having engaged in over 100
ring battles, Leach Cross is now box
ing in the best form of his career, at
an age at which nearly all boxers
have outlived their usefulness. As a
result of clean living and good judg-
ment, however, Cross is now In po-
sition to utilize the knowledge and
experience gained from his many ring
battles.
Leach started at the bottom the
same as any other unknown, boxing
frequently for So and Sc, but his speed
and punching ability brought him to
notice quickly and his rise was sem
sational. He never lodged any of
the tough ones and has held his own
with such men as Packey McFar-
land, Joe Rivers, Jeln Driscoll, Tom
my Murphy, K. o. Brown and Willie
Fitzgerald. He is the only boxer who
ever knocked out either Battling
Hurley or Joe Mandot. 1t is note
worthy that AID Wolgast and Bat
Nelson could not be induced to meet
