New York, Aug. 25.—''The fight
between Fitzsimmons and Sharkey
last night,” said Charley White,
who refereed the bout, ‘‘though
short, was the best mill I ever saw
and the best man won. Both men
displayed great gameness. The
blow that knocked Fitz down was
too high to be effective. When the
etd came Sharkey stood the rain of
blows like the stoic he is. When
nearly gone Fitzsimmons got his
famous left “hook to the jaw that
won. the fight. Fitzsimmons is
right in line for a return match | for

miners are buildi and occupying
their own homes. You can have
no better guarantee for a permanent,
prosperous and. well conducted
mining camp. The man who has
no stake or tie to bind him to your
community, and who, after causing
trouble, can pack his blanket and
tramp off elsewhere, is not likely to
be of much benefit to the town. A
camp of homes, such as I have un-
derstood this is fast becoming, is
the best safeguard 1 know of
against disturbance of any kind.”
