EAST ELY WOMAN -
IN WRECK AT SEA

Mrs Paul Boese, who left East
Ely on the 18th of last month and
sailed for England on the steamer
Philadelphia, has no doubt had a
thrilling experience. Mrs. Boese,
who went to visit Mr.. Bosses mother
until such time as he could complete
some important work with the Neva-
da Northern, when he will sail for
England and offer his services to his
country, wrote him from on board
the Philadelphia before the accident
an account of which is given In the
following press dispatch from Lon
dom
THE American line steamer Phil
adelphia collided with the British
sailing ship Ben Lee twelve miles
south of Carnarvon bay at $50
o clock Saturday night. The Phila-
delphia was outward bound from Liv-
erpool to New York.
THE Ben Lee speedily became wa
terlogged. Her crew was rescued by
the steamship Bandon and landed al
Holy Head. One seaman on the Ben
Lee was badly injured.
THE Philadelphia, which immedi
ately put back into the harbor, sus.
tanned considerable damage to hen
upper structure.
"A boat containing seven men
which left the Philadelphia with the
object of assisting the Ben Lee, ha.

REQUISITION PAPERS
FOR CATTLE THIEF

Requisition papers were received
at the governors office recently for
the return of Frank Dawson and
Tom Taylor, who are wanted in Ar
izona for cattle stealing and are
charged with grand larceny. The
men were arrested at Caliente. Ne
vada, where they are being held
awaiting the arrival of an officer
who will take them back to Arizona
to face the charge. Deputy Sheriff
Young of that state has been given
the necessary warrant by the govern
or and has left to get the men.

weight. While Barrieau depended
largely upon his clever foot work to
keep out of harms way, both men
fought every second and with Bar
rieau's jabs to Johnson's face for
which he was paid in full with yiei-
Gus body blows. the audience was on
tiptoe during the entire battle.
The audience was the largest ever
seen in Ely, and not another man
could be conveniently gotten into the
hall. Tom Chambers would soon at
tract the attention of the world in
the prize fight promoting game and
the men which he has succeeded in
bringing together would draw all the
fight fans that could possibly reach
the ring side in any city and any
country.
Announcer Lawrence made the
statement that there would be two
preliminaries, but this proved errone-
Gus. The show was formally opened
when two men stepped through the
ropes, one a prize fighter and the
other human crustation of the lob
ster variety. Jack Dempsey came
from Salt Lake some time ago and
has since had difficulty in trying to
get match. Argoe was first talked
of and this boy showed every inclina-
tion to go. 1t was considered, how
ever, that he was conceding too much
weight and the authorities refused to
permit the match to go on. This was
by no means to Argoe's liking:as he
was at all times not only willing but
anxious to meet Dempsey. Jack
Dempsey Is a coming man in the priz
ring and the Big Swede who was
finally selected to meet him evidently
had been imbibing little too freely
when he entered tn ring. He tried
to amuse the audience with what he
evidently thought was funny gestures
but Dempsey took a different view ol
1t. He was there to fight and give
the audience a run for their money
He evidently became disgusted will

man dropped to the floor and re

showing almost human intelligence
until somebody finally cleared tn,
ring for a bout. In the second pre-
liminary Young Edminsten of Mon
Rose, Colorado, and Young Baxter
of Idaho put up rafting good three

we'll matched and eleverly trained
tigers. C. w. Hicks was chosen al
referee for the preliminaries and
when he gave the two clever and
willing boys draw his decision was
we'll received.

able development of so many youth

HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO
PRESENT captain RACKET

Under the direction of Judge H..
w. Edwards, the students of the
White Pine County high school will
present Captain Racket at the Lib
erty theater on February %. The
three-act comedy selected is clever
in the extreme and with the excellent
talent which upon previous occasions
it was demonstrated could be found
among the high school students, a
successful presentation is assured.
Judge Edwards has gained reputa-
tion in this district as a director of
amateur theatricals. The healthy en-
joyment of our youth has become very
much of hobby with him and his
energy in all matters is sufficient
warrant that when the curtain goes
up on his latest selection, his anna
teurs will be drilled to point which
would entitle them to entrance upon
a professional stage. The successful
presentation of The Gold Mine
some time ago will long be remem-
bered and many of those who showed
such excellent talent for stage work
will be again seen in Captain Rack
et.'
The students have started upon
their work in earnest and now devote
all spare time possible to rehearsing.
Jack Frost will appear as Captain
Racket and Harold Jackson, who was
the hit of the season when he appear
ed in 1.-The Gold Mine," will care for
the character known as Obadiah
Dawson, the captains uncle. Tim
othy Tolman, the captains friend
will be assigned to Wayne Stokes
The cleverness of Mr.. Stokes is well
known and in this part he is sure to
keep the audience continuously In an
uproar. Warren Larsen will appear
as Mr.. Dalroy, the captains father
SO that part is sure to be well taken
care of. Bruce Davis will show you
just what really tough waiter is like
and his work in rehearsals could not
be surpassed. Miss Eva North is
sure to win rounds of applause in
her part as Clarice, the captain {
wife, Miss North displays talent fol
the work which would do credit tC
many professionals. Miss Mabe
Wheeler will be seen in the difficult
part of Mrs. Tolman, but those who
have seen Miss Wheeler on the stage
entertain no doubt as to her ability
to handle her task with such clever.
ness as will delight the audience
Miss Edith Lowe is sure to amuse
the audience while she is on the
stage in the witty and laughable role
of Katy, the maid.
Aside from the fact that the cause
for which this play is to be given is
so worthy, and the educational ben
eft and experience to the students
of such great value, this entertain
ment is sure to be well attended, be-
cause of its real worth as theatri-
cal production, and 1t seems certain
that all reserved seats will be sold
before the doors are opened on the
night of the performance

B0rrieQu Gets Decision OOer
Johnson in TensROund Bout

Frank Barrieau the Canadian welt
erweight won decision over Eddie
Johnson, of Pueblo, Colorado, last
night at Bio hall in one of the best
Professor w. w. Langdon refereed
the bout and while a draw would
have no doubt been a much more
popular decision. Langdon is a master
at the game and watches every point
He does not take popularity into ac-
count but renders his decision from
a cold blooded scientific boxing stand
point. The two men entered the ring
promptly at 9 O'Clock and both we're
greeted with loud cheers. Barrieau
seemed to carry the most money in
the betting at the ring side, but at
no time was better than even money
offered and Johnson had numerous
followers. In the first round both
men were cautious and evidently each
had considerable respect for the
other. They spared around the ring
looking for an opening and at the
same time each was sizing up his
man. Commencing with the second
round Johnson carried the fight to
Barrieau who showed marvellous foot
work and clever fighter while on
the defence. He kept continually
sticking his left hand into Johnson's
face, but the Pueblo boy only shook
his head and kept coming. When
Barrieau's jabs Jared Johnson's head

Neither man was ever in danger save
for the fact that both carry a kick
in either hand which will end fight
any time 1t lands. Both seemed well
aware of this fact and determined
that it should not reach home in that
particular fight.
Johnson forced the fighting al
through the bout and Barrieau die
the boxing. One thing is certain. Il
will take a longer bout than ter
rounds to settle the question of su
premacy between two such clever mel
as these, and if such exhibitions arr
to be furnished the sporting publi'
are we'll entitled TO a twenty rount
law ON the same basis as now pro
vided for ten rounds. In a twent,
round go these two boys will furnish
one of the best fights ever witnessed
anywhere in the world. Owing tt
the condition of the roads johnson
was unable TO do any road work and
consequently unable to reach the
weight agreed upon. When he dis
covered this during the week he for
feited fifty dollars and agreed to
make 153 pounds at the ring side
Later finding this likewise impossible
he was obliged to forfeit an add.
tional fifty dollars, and when he en-

TENNIS MEETING TODAY.
Executive Committee Will Determin
Schedule for the Season.

NEW YORK. March 1.-THE execu-
tive committee of the United States
Lawn Tennis Association will meet al
the Waldorf this afternoon to give the
fin fishing touch to the schedule OF fix
lures for the coming season. The
amateur question also will come ur
for consideration, the McLoughlin-
Bundy case being a heritage from the
annual meeting Of the association. II
was announced at the meeting in Feb
ruary that the matter would be held
over for the executive committee meet
ing.
1t is considered improbable that any
of the men who are engaged in the
sporting goods business viii be de-
clared professionals. There is Il dis
position to have more stringent amateur
rules but the executive committee
probably will make no drastic changes.
though it may recommend changes tina
will be acted upon at the next annual
meeting of the association. What may
be done is to suggest that after GER
tain time all men engaged in the sport
ing goods business be declared profess
SIGNALS. This would give any one who
desired to retain his amateur status an
opportunity to conform to the condi-
tions. 1t is generally agreed that to
take action against Mclaughlin and
Bundy alone would be unfair.
