The fnal rounds Of nearly all the
great battles in which the heavyweight
title changed hands, or in which the
champions retained their honors, were
replete with exciting incidents
No finish was more spectacular than
that In which the supposedly unbeata BILE
Sullivan was slowly battered to the
moor by the agile and clever Corbett
In the twenty-frst round. The result
was SO unexpected that Sullivan's ad-
herents. who had wagered 5 to l that
the champion would retain his title,
could hardly believe their eyes
This was followed a few years later
by the Carson upset in which the foxy
Fitzsimmons tricked the clever Corbett
into leaving an opening for the Cornish
mans left shift with the resultant solar
plexus punch In the 14th round. AL
though the astonished Corbett, who in
the early rounds looked a winner all
over. was not rendered unconscious by
the blow. its force temporarily took
away his breath and paralyzed his lower
limbs As he clutched vainly at the
ring ropes for support, the timer was
toling on the seconds and counted the
fatal ten.
Corbett Full OF Fight.
Hardly had sner declared Fits the
winner when Corbett. recovering from
the effects Of the blow. made a daEh
across the ring and tried to strike the
victor. He was restrained by the crowd
that then filled the ring.
In the second battle between Jeffriea
and Fitzsimmons, on the coas., the spec
tators saw Fitz beat the boilermakeI
to pulp for seven rounds. and then
witnessed the thrilling climax OF "a knock
out Of the Cornishman IN the eighth,
when he no longer could punch owing
to broken hands.
The most pathetic scene of ali was
when Jeffries, failing to heed the lesson
OF experience, returned to the ring after
five years of retirement and was beaten
by Johnson. Jeffries In the fifteenth
round had been so terribly puzzled
that he hung over the ropes In helpless
condition. Richard. promoter and ref
cree. then stopped the contest and de-
clared johnson the winner. Appended

to the local boys when at the end OF
first half the score stood 10 to 8 in
favor of Boomers Ferry
In the second half the Bonners Fer

long in pulling away from their rivals,
throwing three baskets IN almost as
many minutes right after the start OF
the half, and from this time until tho
whistle sounded. kept widening the
margin of the points. The game, how
ever, was a fast one from start to the
finish and the teams were much more
evenly matched than the score would
Indicate. The game was unusually
free from fouls and it was refereed to
the satisfaction of both teams and the
spectators by Roy Voshmik.
The contest was witnessed by a

that basketball is very popular in this

CHARLES S. MOODY is ARRESTED
Charged With Misappropriation OF the
State Milltia Funds

Charles S. Moody, former adiutant
general of Idaho, resident of Bonner
County and at present one of the rep-
resentatives of that county in the leg
islature, was arrested at Boise on last
Thursday night, charged with evil
fully, unlawfully and feloniously'
making false certificate on certain
voucher on which money was paid to
him. The arrest was made on the
complaint of the prosecuting attorney
of Ada county Moody furnished the
$500 bail bond required for his fu-
ture appearance to answer the charge
made against him.
The voucher in question was in the
sum of $176.63, expense of the trim
made by the former adjutant general
to Washington in December. 1t is
alleged that Mr.. Moody collected the
amount from the state, was reimbursed
by the government for the same items
and that payment in full was made BY
the government before Moody filed the
claim for the same items against the
State of Idaho.
General Moody maintained at the
hearing of the state affairs committee
that this item was reimbursed to the
state as soon as the government paid
the bill and that when the bill was
filed against the state he had no as.
surance that the government would
pay the amount

sAMuELs GETS A FEDERAL JOB
Nonpartisan Leader OF Idaho Named
Special Agent Department of Labor

According to dispatches in Saturday
papers, II. F. Samuels. of Bonner
county, has been handed quite a de-
sirable appointment by the national
administration, he having been named
a special agent of the department of
labor and delegated to travel in Eu-
rope to collect data on colonization
and to study industrial and economical
conditions. He sailed on March 10
for Liverpool and his passports permit
him to travel and visit in Great Brit
ain, France, Belgium. Switzerland, It.
ally, Denmark, Norway and Sweden
Samuels was the non-partisan league
candidate last November for governor
of Idaho. In this campaign the dem
ocratic party of the state was very
bitter against Samuels and the league
as far as the state ticket was con-
cerned but seemed to work together
nicely in connection with Senator j.
f. Nugents' campaign. Just now it
would probably interest many demo-
Gratis of this state to know why III. F.
Samuels, the man who was at the head
of the ticket of the party that dis
rupted the democratic party, has been
able to land such fine plum from the
national democratic administration.
Then too, some of us begin to see
that it may be possible that Samuels
was fully within his rights last cam
paign in linking his name and his pic
ture with those of President Wilson
The way the plums are falling now
go long way towards showing which
way the wind blew last election.
