Growing Interest was manifested here today by fight fans In the Labor day battle be tween Jim Flynn, the Pueblo fireman, and Charlie Miller, a local hope. Both men are getting down to hard training and their camps are crowded dally. Flynn, who at first felt disposed to hold Miller cheaply, Is said to have changed and la now taking a much more serious view of the situation. He feels that defeat at the hands of a comparative novice would forever for feit his right to consideration as a top-notcher.

CWKKI. DEATH IS TREASURE STRAXGE COINCIDENCE THAT EV. EUYONE WHO KNOWS OR BE COMES INTERESTED IN BURIED TREASURE IS MYSTERIOUSLY MURDERED. Violent deaths and mysterious dis appearances seem to be closely con nected with the old legend of a burled Mexican treasure near Coos Buy Since the story was recently revived because of the famous Klmmell Insur ance case in St. Louis, It appears that one dlsappearanco or death after an other follows the stirring up of the story of the supposed treasure. When the Klmmell case was on trlal'ln St. Louis some months ago, It was claimed by one side that Klnuiiell was not dead and a man was produc ed who was said to be Klmmell. Klm mell's mother, who sought to collect a large amount of Insurance, claimed that her son was dead and one man went on the witness stand and swore that he was on Coos Bay with Klm mell and a man named Johnson and that both were killed there while seek ing treasure. This led to the revival of the old story of the burled treasure and It was decided in the Klmmell case at St. Louis that Klmmell had really been killed while treasure seeking on Coos Bay. Lute Jacob Evans Knew Story. One of the few men. living who re membered the old story of a supposed treasure was the late Jacob Evans, or Marshfleld, Blnce murdered. The story was that during the Mexican war gold and other valuables which had been taken to the church for safe keeping, was brought on a boat to this locality. The tradition was that the bout entered Sunset Bay, a little below the entrance of Coos Buy, and tllal there the treasure, supposed to be worth $3,000,000 was concealed. Evans for many years lived at Sunset Bny. Before his death Evans told of the story of the supposed treasure and said that while he had never hunted for It himself many different persons had come to the place and stopped at his house while making a search. One of these he knew to be dead now. Whether or not there is a treasure the mere searching for It or having to do with It appears, to bring 111 luck. According to the case In St. Louis, Klmmell and his companion were kill ed while after the treasure. Evans had said little of the story in recent years until he recalled It on tho occasion of the Klmmell case a few months ago. A young man who had worked for Evans for several months and who knew through Evans of the treasure story, disappeared completely and was not seen again dead or alive. ., Murder Still Mystifies. A week after the disappearance of this young man, whose name Is not known, old Mr. Evans was found dead in the kitchen of his house with a bul let through his breast. The murder has remained as much a mystery as the day It was committed. Recently there was something of a stir because of the finding of an open ed grave on the vacant Evans place. What It meant no one was able to say. All these events which seem to have started with the revival of the Ill-fated treasure tradition, are now followed by the complete disappearance of Wil liam Joynor, a neighbor of Evans and the man who found him dead the morning ofter he was murdered. The officers believe that Joynor has also been killed and that his murderers have In some way disposed of his body. That the murder of Evans and dis appearance of the others and the trag edies of early days which are still told of that particular locality, have any connection with the burled treasure story would be difficult to state but II Is a fact that mystery and tragedy has followed the attempts at finding the treasure and the revival of the tra dition. A dispatch from Marshfleld last week adds further to the mystery. It says: "Further mystery In the disappear ance case of William Joynor Is added to by the report that L. A. Llljeqvlst, tho assistant district attorney, has been receiving letters threatening hi? life If he does not stop trying to fath om the mystery of Joynor's dropping out of existence. Sheriff Gage Insists that the man has been murdered anil believes that his body has been thrown In the bay. It is understood that the officers have evidence sufficient to place the crime and they are waiting to secure the body If it is possible to find It. There has been much difficulty In get ting anyone to drag the bay, many fearing that harm will come to them if they attempt to hunt for the body. The fact that the rewards have been Increased to (500 Is probably tho only reason that there are now men search ing the lower bay. It Is said that six threatening letters were sent to the district attorney, one being mailed from Empire, near the scene of the supposed murder, two from North Bend and one from tills city. The threats made In anonymous let ters, however, are having no effect upon the efforts of the officers, f1'6 endeavor to find who killed Joynor, If he Is dead, are bnlng continued with all vigor and It Is thought that when the Joynor mystery Is cleared away it will also bring out who killed Jacob Evans and throw light on the disap pearance of the young man who lived with Evans. The south Inlet cases make up one of the most unusual mys teries of the locality and the officers will do everything In their power to sift It to the bottom. The Coos Bay Harbor of August 22, adds this to the tale of mystery: A party of men composed of Archio Phillips, Victor Wlttick and Ted KIs sam spent several days dragging the wators of South Inlet where they were led to believe the body of William A. Joynor had been deposited by un known murderers. Mr. Phillips states that the bay was thoroughly dragged and that he has given up the search. Mr. Wlttick se cured assistance and his put In sever al days since. The party has discovered where Jcynor went to a spring to get water, found the place where two or three men hid In ambush and shot him, found tracks leading to the beach and marks as if made by a man being dragged by the head and shoulders, Ills heels making two Irregular trails. They also found where two sacks of cobble stones were dug out of the sand, presumably to load the body down with. While there are many evidences of murder that plainly show it Is quite Impossible for tho sheriff to make ar rests or to proceed unless the body Is found. As It Is there Is no way to prove that the man was killed. The reward has been Increased $200 this weok. Governor West authorized Sherlf Gage to offer this sum which brings the total now up to $700. THE ROUND-UP The body of E. M. Walker, drowned In the DesChutes August 14, by the capsizing of his boat, was found Sun dny about a mile and a half below tho point where the accident occurred.

AMERICAN INVENTION TO IRRIOATE NILE VALLEY (DNtTsn rains ixtssn wms. Cairo, Aug. 27 Tho British and Egyptian authorities have had to go to Uncle Sam for help In tho work of Ir rigating the Nilo vnllry. According to the report of the British consul at Alexandria, the Shuman sun heat ab sorber has Just been imported from Philadelphia, and the plant, which has been successfully tested Is being erected at Meadl, near this city. It will be used to pump water from the Nile to irrigate the surrounding land and should It prove satisfactory other plants will be erected throughout Egypt and tho Soudan.
