Every puddle on the road, every bub-

the fact that this is one Of the most Won

would be as difficult es to name the

their name is multitude, and it will be

sympathy of his readers towards the
quaint little women of Japan and their

earnest attention, solemn in its intent

picturesque could fail to be delighted

SAW .soLLY PUNCH THE BAG.

The Little Fighter In Good Trim for
His Fight With Dixon.
n. Y. Daily America: By invitation of
the Coney Island Athletic club, party
OF newspaper men and few others who
are we'll known in the sporting world,
visited Solly Smith at his training quar-
ters at Inter Laken, N. j., yesterday
afternoon. The party arrived at Smiths
quarters in time TO see Solly go through
his afternoon exercise, which consisted
of fighting the bag for 80 minutes,
skipping the rope 1900 times and boxing
four hard rounds with his trainer,
Seward, and Jack Oliver.
All this work was done without q mo-
ment's rest being taken. After his
exercise Solly was given cold shower
bath.
"Well, what do you think of him gen.
tlemen ?" asked Abrahams, as his hand
lers were rubbing the young Californian
down.
"He looks fit enough to fight for a
mans life," spoke up AL Smith after
looking Smith over carefully. 1t was
the general opinion among those pres
ent that if physical condition counted
for anything Smith could be counted on
as giving an excellent account of himself
when he faced George Dixon on the
night of the 25th.
After Solly had got cooled out, he
said: "I like to work like that, it
makes me feel so good"
"How do 1 like this place as train.
ing quarters?' Why, it's the fineet l
ever saw. I should like very much to
live down here"
Smith had very little to say in regard
to the outcome OF his meeting with
Dixon. He appears Satisfied to lay low
and surprise the sports, as it were, the
night of the fight, by knocking the
colored lad out in quick order.
Zeck Abrahsms will be the most sur
prised man ON Coney island if Solly
doesn't win. He has every dollar that
he possesses at stake, and if'the little
Californian loses, Zeck will have to part
with his numerous diamonds to get
back to the Pacific coast.
During the afternoon Jim Corbett and
Jack Dempsey called at the Smith quar-
ters. Dempsey will begin training to-
morrow st the same place as Corbett Tor
his fight with Jim Burge.
