TBTJSTEES OF SAUSALITO
HOLD IMPORTANT MEETING
SAUSALITO, Aug. 10.— At a meeting of
the Town Trustees held this evening the
much discussed question of securing a
sufficient supply of water came up for
consideration. The committee of citizens
appointed to confer with the different wa
ter companies in the county reported that
at least two of the companies were will
ing to supply all the water required If the
town would build a necessary storage
reservoir and lay water mains. The
building of a reservoir and the laying of
mains would necessitate the bonding of
the town. ,
After a lengthy but Interesting discus
sion a resolution favoring the bonding of
Sausallto to secure the needed water sup
ply was passed by a majority vote of the
Trustees.

and on which Drake wagered heavily. The
top weig-ht, Foxhunter, one of the hand
somest henses in training, made the run
ning, in company with J. E. Widener's
Caller. The latter retired after two-thirds
of the race had been run, and then Amur
went on, in company with Foxhunter.
The two fought it out desperately to the
very last Jump. They appeared to be
dead tired. By main strength Mara kept
Amur's head in front of Foxhunter. and
the two passed the finishing point almost
locked together. Ten or a dozen lengths
behind came Caller, which was stopping at
every stride, but managed to last long
enough to defeat Manilian a bead. Sum

HARBIN SPRINGS, Aug. 10.—Moun
tain fires in this vicinity made the heat
almost unbearable, notwithstanding
which Jim Jeffries worked hard in the
gymnasium for more than an hour this
afternoon. He pounded away at the
punching bag until dripping with perspir
ation and then indulged in three severe
rounds j of tugging and wrestling with
Joe Kennedy and Jack Jeffries. While
both of his trainers were well winded at
the close Jeff showed slight signs of
fatigue. To-morrow and Tuesday he will
again * indulge in gymnasium exercises,
but boxing with his sparring partners
will be eliminated. Wednesday morning
the champion and his camp followers will
depart for Oakland. Thursday afternoon
Jeff will strip at the Reliance Club, but
will not put on the gloves.
In his corner Friday night the cham
pion will be looked after by Bob Fitz
-simmons, Manager Billy Delaney, Joe
Kennedy and Jack Jeffries. A club man
from San Francisco, who Is a visitor here
at the springs, said to-day that the re
ports of Jeffries partaking of an occa
sional bottle of wine and otherwise
slighting his training had caused plenty
of short end money. to come to the sur
face. Inferentially the club man said he
would bet 1100 against $200 on Corbett.
Almost immediately Jim Hayes, proprie
tor of the springs and unquestionably
the most enthusiastic admirer the cham
pion has, offered to bet $1003 agafnst $500
that Jeff would win and the discussion
ceased. Hayes thinks the contest will
not go ten rounds, so impressed has he
become wfth the champinon's fast work
and terrific punching power.
F. E. MULHOLLAND.
As the hour of the battle draws nearer
Corbett is easing up in his physical
labors at his camp in Alameda. Yes
terday he boxed twelve rounds in the
open air with Yank Kenny and Sam Ber
ger, taking each man one alternately.
After pulling oft the gloves. Corbett went
into his gymnasium and took a turn at
the various muscle developing machines
and wrestled with the large leather bag
filled with wheat, which is much heavier
than Jeffries and bulkier. In the after
noon the big boxer took part in the usual
baseball game.- Corbett expects to con
tinue work until Thursday morning, but
If the mood strikes him he Is apt to in
dulge in light exercise Friday morning.
"Jim thinks that he will weigh about
1S5 pounds when he clambers through
the ropes Friday night." said Professor
Dare, "but it is my opinion that he will
be closer to 1SS. He is now in fine form
and as his general disposition 13 Jovial
he will pick up a few pounds with but
little to do before Friday night."
Professor Tommy Dare, to whose abil
ity as a conditioner more than to any
other person James J. Corbett owes his
present splendid physical condition, ven
tures ! the statement that the ex-cham
pion will enter the ring Friday, night to
do battle with Champion James J. Jeffries
weighing:' close to 188 pounds. He flgurea
that with the discontinuance of vigorous
training work Corbett will take on several
extra pounds between now and gong
time. Yesterday Jim tipped the beam
at 1S6 pounds, and that after he had
taken a fourteen mile run on the day pre
vious and sweated off Jthree pounds.

Rheumatism
Is Not a Skin Disease*
Most people have an idea that rheumatism is contracted like'a cold, that the
damp, chilly air penetrates the muscles and joints and causes the terrible aches
and pains, or that it is something like a Bkin disease to be rubbed away -with lini-
ment or drawn out with plasters; but Rhuematism originates in the blood and is
caused by Urea, or Uric. Acid, an irritating, corroding poison that settles in mus-
cles, joints and nerves, producing inflammation and soreness and the sharp, cutting
pains peculiar to this distressing disease.
