WHEN JACKSON MET SLAyIN,
Peter tho Great Was Altogether Too
Much for the White Man.

San Fran cisco Special.
A few facts in connection with Slavin's
first meeting with Jackson may not be out
of place. Slavin and Jackson met in
Sydney few years ago. when neither of
them had attained half the prominent
position that they now occupy in the fistic
world, and Jackson easily bested him.
For some time after this SIavin on every
occasion he could would make disparaging
remarks about Peter. They came together
one night in Larry Foley's in sgd
ney, both having imbibed wine pretty
freely, and on Slavin calling Peter a vie
name. Jackson retaliated and again
bested him. Some few days later Slavin
sent Mickie McCarthy's brother (Billyl
with an apology to Jackson and signil.ed
his willingness TO appear at Jackson's
benefit and go him an eight-round
bout, but insisted on Peter playing light,
that is. to avoid heavy hitting. On
the day before Jackson's exhibition Slavin
said he could not appear. as he had to
leave for Melbourne, a Journey Of some
distance Jackson had to md substi
tute. but at his exhibition showed a pro-
gramme at which Slavin was TO wind up
with a local bstic star at Belmaine. a town
some two miles distant from Sydney.
and on the same night that Jackson was
TO have the benefit. Jackson there
and then charged Slavin with leaving the
town 10 avoid meeting with him. And
then Siavin took up his permanent abode
in Melbourne. The above is clear state
ment of lackSon's and Slavin's two meet
ings and has been vouched for bv all
prominent Australian sports located here.
The statement requesting Jackson to go
light" Is youched for by Billy McCarthV's
brother Mike. who was present. and is here
at present writing This refutes altogether

All citizens, irrespective of party, earn
estly hope that the Chicago fair will be
great success. All are satisfied that it will
be so if properly and economically con-
Quoted, and all are satisfied that the man.
ayers are competent and are doing their
best to bring about the best results with
the least possible expense. Few however,
fully understand or realize the amount of
labor and detail necessary TO make
Worlds fair successful.
Whatever differences existed as to where
1t should be located have all passed into his
tory, and all are entitled to great praise for
the unanimity with which they have put
aside their original preferences for partic-
ular localities and joined hands to assist
Chicago.
The means at the disposal of this gov
eminent for making 1t fair that shall be
equal TO the international expositions that
have been held in Europe are in some re-
spects limited. large proportion of the
collections of art. paintings, statuary and
relics of the labor of hundreds OF years in
all Europe would be offered to any gov
eminent on the other side to assist IN max
ing good exhibit; whereas, many arti-
cles that could not be duplicated would
not be sent by the owners across the water
with the added chances of accident by sea
and on land. In regard to that class of
exhibits, other governments would have a
much greater advantage; but for samples
ofthc industries in foreign countries, this
government should offer every inducement
to manufacturers abroad, in Europe. Asia,
Africa and the world over, TO bring their
wares and exhibits to this fair.
Standing all alone, however, the United
States can produce as great and successful
an exhibition of articles manufactured and
grown within its own borders as any other
nation can. except in the immediate
tropics. Tropical fruits, Arctic furs.
cereals, lumber, iron, steel. tin, cotton, our
school system, and in short everything
that has tended to build up and make this
nation great had their origin and develop
ment here.

the gentlemen in charge of the Columbus
centennial.
1t is the tendency Of the people of
Chicago to sound their own praises and
giorify themselves. A proper apprecia-
ton of ones own worth Is always CON-
mendable, but so far as our Worlds fair is
concerned, the Western citizens should
endeayor 10 exercise becoming modesty.
They should not try to save all the best of
the space in the fair, but give exhibitors
from distance fair chance.
Ii the fair should contain products from
each OF our forty-four states and terri
tories. it would not be success as
Worlds fair unless the leading nations
OF the globe are represented in it. A
county. state or domestic fair is one thing;
a Worlds fair is quite different matter.
To the extent that the Chicago fair en-
braces the leading countries OF the world
will 1t be successful. Our own country
should not be sighted. and probably will
not be, but the important thing is to get
foreign nations to exhibit. The Ameri-
can people can be trusted to look after
themselves.
Another point the fair should be con-
Quoted on strictly business principles. No
politics should be allowed TO creep in on
any pretext whatever. The fair, after all,
is gigantic business enterprise, and unless
1t is managed on business principles il can
not be success, either financially or
otherwise.

To the question, "Can the Columbus

say that the way to succeed is TO succeed.
There are two kind of success To be

prophet who went To the mountain, must,
perforce, go TO him. They were at work
on the Schuylkill two weeks; the effects of
the instruction they received are evident
in their rowing today. The new men, as
well as the old members of the crew, are
pulling the "Cook-stroke,'' or as near an
approach to it as can be expected in two
months practice. and they row intelli-
gently.
The men have brought their shell down
the alley to the float and dropped it in the
water alongside. They take their places
at the captains orders, quickly and
quietly. The coxswain. or Cupid, +" as the
Yale crew call their lad in the stern sheets,
grasps the tiIler-ropes firmly, and in pip
ing little voice sings out, Ready! Pull !"
Away they go. their backs, already
bronzed by sun and wind, swinging for
ward in unison and dragging the
oars back, as their bodies
go, with sweep that shows
how weight is helping muscle. Then an
oar fails to strike the water squarely, on
the catch; there is splash, and instantly
a voice from the launch. just astern, Now.

men step from the floats to practice the
stroke that has made Yale's oarsmen
famous, and which may again bring vic
tory to her banners. There is
plenty of work in and around that
boathouse these bright spring days. The
boatkeeper has all he can do in looking
after boats, oars and dressing rooms. For
there are four class crews in practice be-
sides the Varsity, and the number of sim
gle and double SOULS. canoes, barges and
shells under that one roofis really surpris-
ing. No wonder the keepers hair is gray.
He has sides and foot rests to adjust and
readjust, braces and outriggers to keep in
repair, slides to oil and row-locks and but
tons to grease each day, and every day
from the time the ice leaves the harbor
until the races in midsummer.
The Varsity crew have compartment
of the boat-house to themselves. Near the
door stand eight sweep oars, marked near
the button with each mans name, so that
they may be picked out by the crew at
moments notice. They are unusually
long-something over eleven feet, and per-
haps a tribe stralghter in the blade than

object attained is probably greater ease in

The shell is, as usual. of paper, made by
