San Francisco, March 22.-The betting
on the Jackson-Jeffries fight, which Oc-
ours tonight, has been peculiar. It
opened at 10 to Z, with Jeffries favorite,
but the odds changed slowly under the
influence of Jackson money. There
was little Jeffries money in sight and
when the betting was resumed last
evening 10 to was the favorite price.
The pool sellers kept calling for the
Jeffries' end and some tickets were sold
at even money. Then as the specula-
ton quickened, the Jackson forces
money began to flow in. Large commits
siOns were placed and the odds sagged
steadily at 10 to Z, with the prospects
of 10 to by this evening. While the
straight betting is 10 to Z, with JEFF
fries, the Paris Mutual board show
Jackson to be the faVorite at practi-
cally the same figure. The advance sale
of seats already amounts to $1,000 and
the most important day of all remains,
with the gallery yet to be sold. At the
request of the Olympia club, both men
have been examined by a physician
who prOnounces their condition abso-
lutely perfect.

THE SANE POOLE.
A Term in the Penitentiary Seems
Not to Have Changed Him.

A. F. Poole, who is supposed to be a
professional chicken thief, is again in
the clutches of the law. He was ar
rested Monday evening by Undersherin
w. II. Williams and locked in the coun-
ty Jail
Poole was sent to the penitentiary for
breaking into crib and stealing a. sack
of corn, but he was arrested before for
stealing chickens, and acquitted. He
has been out of the penitentiary several
months, and the officers think that he is
at his old business again.
The charge is made that he recently
made a trip to Lawrence, and farmers
missed chickens all along the route.
Douglass county people say that when
he started home he stole the screens
from a school house, and screens were
found at Poole's home, near the fair
grounds A large number of chickens
were also found at his home.
The specific charge is the theft of the
school house screens, but if Shawnee
county farmers can identify the chick
ems in his yards, he will be tried in To-
peka for stealing chickens and burglar
izing chicken houses.

COBURN IN THE RACE.
Secretary of Board of Agriculture
Makes Formal Announcement

It was announced in the Journal
Saturday that f. D. Coburn would,
within very few days, announce him
self as a candidate for governor. He
did so late Monday afternoon.
To a Journal reporter Mr.. Coburn
said: Il have tried to keep out of this
gubernatorial contest but a good many
worthy people in various parts of the
state whom 1 highly esteem insist on
knowing whether a nomination would
be accepted if the convention saw fit
to name me. My answer is in substance
that while not politically ambitious if
the nomination really comes hunting
for me 1 can be found-at the agricul-
tural department, attending to business.
When the delegates assemble they viii
know what their constituents want and
1 shall not try to tell them what to do,
either then or before"
