CrUNBHOOK, B.O. 8ATUBDAY MORNING AUGUST iml, 1913 Boxing Contest Uvanni Wins in the Sixth by a Knock-out-Ring Generalship and Experience Tell When the gong sounded for the beginning uf tlio preltrainariee to the big advertised boxing contest between Jim Breiui. n, of Toronto, and Joe Uvanni oi New York, the Auditorium wan but sparsely Tilled, only some -.un being in attendance. in the erclimiliary bout between J, McLean, of Hull la ver, and C. Llrown, the ref.:rcc stopped the bout at the end ol the third round ftnd de- elared McLean lhe winner on points, It la only ia.r to Drown to say that he was not in condition to enter thc rinj; and only did so to till np; the mun wbu originally agreed to stand up to McLean did not put in ais aPPearadce. The main bout started at 9-23, Uvanni weighing in at 158 and Bran- nan at Iti*"1' I'he light waa under the Marquis tf Quecnsoury Rules and a clean breait. When thc men entered the ring it was hard to tell the abil ity , ol the two boxers; although Drunnon bad the height ond reach, be appeared to be somewhat stit! In bis movements; whilst on the other hand, Uvanni looked in fine trim and carr cd an easy movement. The referee for the match was J. Perry; timekeeper, Isaac. Bayter; both di Cranbrook and unknown to the combatants. Hound Ono was, generally speaking a mix,up, Brannon striking hard to Lh_ face while Uvanni. evidently, was Blzing up his man. Round Two-Brandon started again li s ponnches to the face but Uvanni got away and several of Brannon's attempts fell short. The round finished very ever, for both men. Round Three—Brannon again led heavily for the Jaw but Uvanni retaliated just as strong. Some parr.ng followed and l.'vunni struck more to the cheat, which lir-uinun left open. 'Both men weic in turn applauded for | their well placed potinehes in this round. Hound Four—Uvanni was getting somewhat the bust of it, keeping his Oponent busy guard ng himself. This round was clearly Uvannt's. Round Five—Brannon attempts to force th? lighting but is very quickly Stopptd by heavy blows to the lace. Uvanni loft himself open several times ii Brannon had had strength to have followed up but he was getting very weak at thiB time and the ring experience of Uvanni was ver> easily oissrved. Iu the Sixth rtound it was well to sc? that eho fight would be Uvanni's. He led in the attack and while going wide of the mark several times hi got in some very heavy body .blows. With but o minute lift hi I struck an upper cut which missed its I na"k an i followed with a ri"ht-hand swing which lunded on Rrnnncn's jaw, knocking him out for t'.e count of ten. The tight from start to I'n'sh was clean and well conducted being on'oyed by the majority who attended. Joe. Uvanni was born at Ducenza, in the province of Benevento, Italy, in the year 1884, coding to the Uni- t1d States when he was ten years j old. He has met the beBt flghtirs | in the Middleweight nnd now claimB , to be ihe Middleweight champion of ! Canada and Italy. Joe left Cranbrook on Wednesday for Great Falls, Mont., where be has arm need to null off another stunt. He will return again to the Crow's Nest later on hiving arranged to meet Dick Marsha., of Uiairmore, in Fernie on Lnhor Bay. Presentation to Brymner Citizens and Business Men Join in Presentation to Mr. R. T. Brymner Perry Creek Placers Development now Taking Place Recalls Old Times Prospects Very Bright Just to show their appreciation aud esteem lor Mr. R. T. Brymner, thc business men and several citizens of Oranbrook gathered together for | a smokor un Monday evening in the Cran .rook jotel d'nlng rooms. I lt was apportioned out to Mr. r. E, Wilson to le chairman (or the evening and a more genial nnd cap- aide chairman lor such eh occasion it wotld be hird to And, sufficient it is to say thnt from the first bo placed everyone in the right spirit which so prevailed throughout the eveningt thit although th-. assembling was called (or the purpose of bidding farewell to one of our most respected citizens, the occas on was really one for rejoicing with Mr. Brymner over his promotion. The lirst toast of thu evening was "Our King," afterwards "Our Bankers;" which was responded to by H. |W. Supple, of thc Imperial Bank, anl T. B. O'Connell, of the Royal i ol.h of these managers of competing *bnn'rB expressed their appreciation for the gentlemanly way and methods I Mr. Brymner had always em*,,--> ■■ 'rn- transactions they 'bad occasion ti have with him. The chairman next called on "The , Boys of Cranbrook" to say. a few words mming Messrs. Hanson, Jud?e I Ryan anl A. Raworth. i Mr. H.'-nson in a few words said I how gl td he was to have met Mr. I Brymner and spoke of htm as -, gentleman in all. things, I Judge Ryan, in „ few, well chosen, conci sc an d appropriate words, touched cn the value it is to any community to h:ivc surh men in our midst as Mr. Brymner. "No compliment is too high to play the game of life" was one of the Judge's express ion*; in making reference to the high esteem which the neople of Cranbrook held Mr. Brymnsr. "And from mv h.-art 1 say it, if Lethbridge gains in proportion to Cranbrook's loss, I envy Lethbridge.'' Judge Ryan then went on to sav that Mr. Brymner was one of the foremost lt is gratifying to observe that all recent reportB (rom Perry Creek indicate progress towards the establishment ot the mining industry on n sot.nd business ba3is. Although this nis been a comparatively quiet season, much lioncst work has been done Many people, strong financially have been reconnoitering and a steady advance iB reported. There are already some very line mines on which a considerable amount of work has been performed, aud others are being developed and certainty will be added to tne list of mines before long. 'lb; Perry Creek placers were discovered in the year 1875 the diggings than extended about two miles below the old town w th tbeir crude a:->pli.:nces, removed an unusual amount of gravel and during the ensuing three years a large amount of gold wns taken out. It was daring the year 1895 that the hrst quarts location was mad on Perry Creek and the following year, in July, new prospectors discovered that there were four or five distinct ledges of gold quartz running through thc district, and this statement was verified hv the provincial mineralogist, Mr. Robinson, who stated that lhe ledges are true fissure veins, nnd can lie traced Io'-' eleven miles. The surface deposits being decomi died rocks and carbonates, lhe mineral bearing quart/, itself being fl very soft formation seem to be granite and auglte. The trend of the main lead has a hearing of men ui Cranbrook circles especially m the Bide oi our life given over to entertainment. The services he had so gratuitously given to promoting concerts and amateur theatricals Was Worthy the praise ol everyone. Ac are sorry te> lose blm. in a IeW words, Mr. A. Raworth -.am how ue had come in very close touch with Mr, Brymner, not oniy ,n business and entertainment nut as a lncnd, and explained how Mr. Brymner was a man who knew how to smooth over difficulties and overcome thc \aKurities of human nature. "There are some men,': said Mr. Raworth, "whom we like to meet in life, 1 like to meet such men —Mr. Bryinncr is one of them. To know him is to like him and we shall all lie sorry to lose him, at thc same time we are all rejoicing with him at his promotion." Proposing the toast "to Mr. and Mrs. Brymner," the chairman coupled therewith tbe names of Dr, King, p. Lund and II. IC, Beattie. Dr. King, in his remarks, made reference to Mr. Brymner's executive ability and integrity of character; ulso, to iiis appreciation of Mr. Brymner as a man nnd friend; and he believed all would (eel a personal regret at bio departure. Mr. Beat-tie's remarks took a very jocular turn and made the company tn oy a real ge-od laugh as be made refsrence to the period of time he believed Mr. Brymner would remain in Lethbridge and how he woil.d wish to be back in Cranbrook again, Mr. P. Lund said; "Though he had not met bim so much in a social way as the majority of the company, he Uui come in close contact with bin. in ■■ business way. I have the greatest respect for him as a business man. Banking institutions are good and we, in the district, are fortunate in having such capable men. at the head or the local branches, Though ('ranbrook is suffering a :os-» at this time in losing such a man, it must not deter or binder i.s from continuing to build nnd develops the Kootenays, which, in spice of nil, will continue to develops." Mr, Lund spoke highly ol thc future of the Kootenays. Mr. Brymner in replying to tin* toast to Mrs. Brymner and hlmsolt, oppressed himself as soiry to leave Cranbroo.-- but it meant promotion and he went on to s.iy that promotion was what we all wen1 looking (or "it his been said thai l have only been iu Cranbrook some seven years, as a matter of fact, 1 was here ten >e rs ago, I gut oil the [l.atfo aud walked through deep snow in low shoes to the Cranbroo'. hotel and shortly afterwards started work in the bun. which lasted some eighteen months. I was removed again to Montreal, ami back again to Cranbrook. wliere I was tickled to death to come and ,tm uow sorry to go. Both Mrs. Brymner and my- S'K are leaving some very good friends behind, but we are not so far away and may meet, again soon. What 1 would like to sav In closing, is thaL i believe that Cranbrook is the best town, in tbe best district, in thc best country in the world." Mr. W. llalsall, at this time, was j ca'led upon to make a little presentation. Mr. Hnlsall, in presenting a •Sterling Silver Tea Set (Queen Anna i style), and a Sterling "Silver Punch Bowl, said: "In making this prcsen- j t'Ulon wc hope you will accept it as a slight token of the esteem in which vou are held by the citizens of Cran ,rooi. Mr, Brymner Wns taken bv surprise as no news of the presenttn- tion had reached him and wished to express his thanks on behalf of Mrs. Brymner, to whom he said bis success was due, and himself. The evening was Interspersed with nongs and recitations bv Messrs. C. W. Lauback. A. Oraham, Mr. Still- man of Calgary, 0. Newton and H. Darling.

Dangers of Fire Recent Events Show the Necessity of More Cure and Precaution in Regard to Fire The all too frequunt stories of the terrlUe lose of llie owin**; to the ex- iutenee of virtual tire-traps or other causes equally condemnatory, which '.rom day tu day appear in the col- umus of our newspapers, deserve Investigation with a view to hettcr protection. And, even il many ot the tins do nut entail Ions of life, they mean loss of property, and Llla. is no small blow to the man who has been slaving for years to build up a comlortnblo home or hnsinefls.

But as tin's may lie due to an increase of clientage, there is room for doubt as to the actual meaning of the figures independent of that, tbe tire toss in dnvla dining 1912 has been estimated at something like twenty-three million dollars or a per capita Iohb of |3.07, which, with a per capita cost of maintaining tire brigades. in.lives a total oi $4.32 Per capita.

Fruit Marks' Act Secretary of the Fruit Growers' Association Makes Report on Recent Legislation Wth YBAR ORANBROOK, B.C AUGUST 2nd. The contract (or tbe tirst section I ol the new Welland (.'anal has heen let and contracts for &M the othet i uectioii6 will bfl let this summer ; vsoU is to ne started immediately. Tbe Laurel ex-Ministers hereby (all to un-JersLanii why this should be , done ro tar in advanr ion. nt «n elect-1 The -oveinment has been busy in j letting contracts tor the construct- j on of public works throughout the country. Mnny ot the contract! have j been large and many ot tbem small. ' But. every part <Jf the country is he- ] ing catered to and the promises ol the Govermntnt kept. Tbis shows the difference in the policy ol the | present government as compared with that of the Laurier administration. Under the latter orliy certain parts of the Dominion favour able to the Liberals were attended to. ThiB has all now been changed and a government ;or the people and by the people has been BUtiStitu- ed. • * • • All the misleading headlines, atti- cles and cartoona which the opposition press may contrive from now till doomsday will not remove or conceal the fact that the Senate at Sir Wilfrid Laurler's behest has made the whole Canadian population look like a lot of mean-spirited paupers in the eyes of the rest of the Empire and of the world. Kven A- mericans are beginning tt) despise us for failing to play the part of men. Here at home it is a matter of common knowledge that tbnut.and.-i of liberals are in revolt against the contemptible course pursued hy their leaders at Ottawa, w-ho did nothing for Imperial defence in office and are bound tbat nothing shall he done while they arc out nf office Toronto News, Becomes Consumer The Liberals Inst election were cry- j ing for wider markets tor the far i mere ol Canada, ignoring the fact] that the hest market of all Is th*. home market, which the farmers of the Dominion are today unable to supply. This borne mar-tot they would have banded over to the Amer leans to get in exchange n market which it already over supplied. BRINGING IN BUTTER Just how great is tbe Canadian home market is shown by the fact that last year tbe Dominion Imported over $2,000,000 worth of butter, most of it from New Zealand and for the tlrst time in :.ixty years exported no butter to Great Kngland. um year **]..n we purchased half ,, mil-1 lion dollars' worth ot eggs Irom abroad, principally from the United States, while we imported ..eel uud mutton from New Zealand and .\us- Lralla. HOMK MARKET GROWS Statistics sho* that the cause this decline m exports and increase in Imports is due not to smaller production "a the part t.t tba agriculturalists ol Canada, hut to the re markable growth ol the home market of the Uom nion. Dairy Commission er Ruddtck states that there has be*Q as much increase Ln milk production, taking t anada OS E> whole, during the past decade an there was during any other similiar period lo the history «»l the Industry. LNURBSASBfl CONSUMPTION Mr. iiu-dick btates "lu oue way or anottie. Canauiaus ore consuming between thirty aud forty million uonars' wurth a year more ol dairy products t,h.tQ they did ten \ears ago Let me give you au Illustration oi tbisincrease. During tb*. period whew ibe creameries in Aioerta aud Saskatchewan were operated bv the Dom Inion Government:, it woe a part of my duties to liua a market ior the; butter produced therein. In 1903 Lhe tolal output of creamer> butter iQ tbe»e three province was less th:in three quarters oi a nulliun pounds. .-Vt tbat time there wad no butter being shipped to the Wescern ProTin- ces from Eastern Canada, and yet1 we found it uece_aar> to export over 10U.O00 pounds to Great Brit.an to avoid a serious glut m tbe British Columbian and Prairie market*.. WEST WANTS MORE No* contrast Uiat state of affair**, with the past year. Ir. tbe nrst place, Alberta and Saskatchewan pro duced about 4 million pounds ol creamery butter in 1912; at least 200,000 boxes or 11,200,000 pound were shipped irom Ontario and Que bee to points west of the Great Lakes; ..,000,000 boxes or 5,600,00 j pounds will be imported from New Zealand lApril 1.912, to march, 1913) j making a total 0f 20,000,000 pounds j in lUi_-l- as against half a million' pounds Which met all re-|uiremtnis in 1908-04. 'ihe_e .".guns refer to creamery butter only, but there has also been a very large increase in the output of dairy butter in the western provinces, most of which is consumed locally. I have no sut s- tlcs for Manitoba, but the conditions in that province do not differ greatly from those in Alberta and Saskatchewan. No*, when we consider that the population east %>l the Lakes has increased very nearly hs much during this period as it has in the Western Provinces, we get some idea Of why nur exports have fallen off." L'nder the Prult .Marks Act, all Canadian atnppers of trmt have ln-en compelled to comply with its re ■j-iireme-.t*;. This Uriti. h Columbia growers have faithfully and cheerfully d me, though Imported fruit com in.1 in direct competition wilh us wub alowed to ie sold without hindrance without in any way complying with the law.
