Local Lad Is Too Clever for
Chavez in 20 Round
Bout

Los ANGELES, Nov. 5.--Eddie CAM
pi, the San Francisco bantam weight.
had an easy time outpointing Benny
Chavez in a 90 round bout at the Yer
non arena last evening. The crowd
could see the finish many rounds in
advance, and nobody was at all sur
prised when Referee George Blake
handed the San Francisco lad the de-
cision. for there was nothing else to
do.
Campi displayed marvellous speed
and cleverness and landed on his
tough Mexican opponent at will, but
that let him out. He is woefully lack
ing in the punch. Had he been able
to deliver q stin wallop there is no
doubt but that the battle would have
ended ere 10 rounds had been reeled
off, for he scarcely ever missed blow.
During the first II rounds it was
simply case of how many times
Campi could hit his opponent Blow
after blow landed on the head and
the body of the rugged Mexican. but
he managed to shake them all off and
he never slowed down for an instant.
Campi did the best he could, but he
was unable to put anything on his
varied assortment of wa1lops.
During the latter part of the seven
teenth Chavez landed lucky right
and left swing to the jaw of the San
Francisco lad, shaking him UP badly.
Chavez renewed his attack in the
eighteenth and chased Campi around
the ring, and Eddie appeared a bit
tired. The Mexican also tried hard in
the last two periods. but his spurt
came q bit too late.

Selfish Human Nature.

This is the whole story in a
nutshell. The farmer wants high
er prices, the wage earners want
higher wages, the storekeeper
wants higher profits. President
Harrison once said that a cheap
coat makes a cheap man. He
was right. Things are the cheap
est when things are depressed.
In times of prosperity when wa
ges are highest, when the facto-
ries are busy, the farmer sets a.
side surplus. Yet everyone
wants to buy the other mans
products at the lowest prices and
sell his own at the highest. How
selfish human nature is!-Medina

there is some Improvement in
his condition.
Fraternity seems to be one of
the cohesive forces that impels
one person to esteem another for
preferment, and it is such feel
ing that led President Wilson to
appoint C. w. Elliot of Harvard
to the ambassadCrship to Eng
land. But it seems that that po-
sitiCn was not esteemed as high
ly by the appointee as by the ap-
pointer. and has been declined.
The President will have to try
something else on Mr.. Elliot that
is more captivating. Let it be
something having more of the
essence of a sinecure, than is
found in that position, and the
old university president may con-
slider it worthy of his ability and
consideration.
It was this same cohesion that
led "Xob" to visit LEO" at his
home last Saturday, where the
defunct correspondent is prac-
tically a shut-in, and was appar-
emily very glad to meet a co-cor-
respondent. The meeting SEEM
ed mutually happy and the writ
er feels that what he did was
prompted by no other than a
worthy esteem for his fellow and
a desire to cheer him in the lone
illness of his home, yet it ought
not be said that he was lonely.
He has the companionship of his
estimable wife, who seemed de-
voted to him and to minister to
his wishes. May these estimable
people live many years to enjoy
each others companionship and
be restored to better health than
is now their wont.

The Easter festival and sup.
per given by the Missionary
Band Saturday evening in our M.
E. church parlor proved quite an
enjoyable affair, and helped to
increase the treasury in a salts
factory way. The occasion was
literally patronized and every
body received their moneys
worth in whatever was provided
to tempt the appetite.
The children of our M. E. Sun
day school rendered a fitting
program last night in the M. E.
church. You can mark it down
that our children never do things
by the half. Everything in which
they have a part is always we'll
done. They make it a rule nev-
er to be outdone in any laudable
enterprise. Such are the child
rem who will furnish us with the
stalwart citizenship of tomorrow.
Our undertaken has been quite
busy in the last couple of days
attending to the burial of per-
sons dying among us. Yester-
day and today he was undertak-
er in the burial of two women,
aged respectively SO years, who
each left families surviving.
Sanford Laughman, who, with
his family, went from here to
Florida in quest of health, is re-
ported to have died there. The
body will be brought back for in
terment. He leaves surviving
him a wife and child, a father
and mother.
Spring has now begun, and
during last week furnished us
some very fine weather, during
which some Of our people plant
ed some early garden truck. But
mark the change. Whether the
early bird in this case will catch
the worm remains to be seen.
For the last few days the wealth

storms of wind. No serious dam

New Year flood of 1847 was high

means whereby the fact can b.
ascertained. The writer came tt
this county the spring following
that flood, and was shown a marx
on a stump some distance out
from The stream channel at the
foot of a hill, hut that stump has
doubtless long since disappeared,
so that the means for determin-
ing the question is not at hand;
besides, we scribe failed to visit
the ground where the stump was
once located, during this flood,
or since it's subsidence, so that l
will not attempt to determine
which one of the two floods was
the greatest. | incline to the
belief, however, that this last
one was the highest. Of one
thing | feel sure, this flood was
high enough to satisfy the wish
es of any person for water. The
destruction of property has been
great, but fortunately no lives
were lost among us, and no per-
son has suffered loss in property
to any great extent. The most
thct can be said is that a great
many persons suffered anguish
on account of absent or stranded
friends, but luckily, so far nearly
every person has been heard
from and has been found safe,
for all of which everyone feels
devoutly thankful. While loss
and suffering has been large
here, we feel somewhat exempt
from loss and injury compared
with other places on account of
the visitation. May we forever
be exempt from passing through
any more such ordeals. It will
take quite a while for the coun-
try to recover from the effects
of this catastrophy.
The iron bridge on the Troy
road on our south corporation
line is in dangerous condition
on account of the north abut-
ment having been undermined to
such an extent as to leave no
support to hold it up and is liable
to fall down at any time. Trav-
FL across it is prohibited. Accord
ing to reports our county will
lose largely on bridges, fills and
levees. Our local authorities
have been busy ever since the
subsidence of the water with as
large a force as could be got to
work to repair the culverts and
Washouts to make travel possible
and enable people to procure the
necessities of life and to bury
the dead.
We have had no regular mail
since last Monday, very little at
irregular periods and scarcely a
daily to read, so that we feel we
are about isolated from the hab-
liable globe. Very few strang-
ers visit us t. furnish reports of
the havoc of the food. A few of
our people ventured away from
home Saturday and yesterday,
