SHARKEY ELATED.
Tickled Over the Prospect of Go With
Jeffries.

TickIed Over the Prospect of Go With
Jeffries.
Paso. Robes, Cal. June 12.-Tom
Sharkey is elated over the prospect OF
meeting Champion Jeffries in the ring
again. He said tonight:
II received a message from my man
ager, O'Rourke, to-day announcing that
I had been matched to fight Jeffries on
Sept Is before the club offering the
largest purse. 1t is needless to say am
pleased. 1t is only three months off,
and very little extra work will place me
in condition to make the fight of my
life.
'sJeffries will find he can't fall all
over me and wear me out as he did
lightweight Fitz. / hear a great deal
about the marvellous improvement of
Jeffries. There are Others Don't let
anyone harbor the idea that this Is 60
ing to be a one-sided contest. With
Sharkey under the heap. | expect TO
win but If / should lose. Jeffries will
know he has been up against the hard
est proposition of his life. Siler is salts
factory to me. He is square sport.
and / have nothing to fear from an
honest referee.
Il shall leave here for San Francisco
on June q, and about the 2Sth / will
leave for New York. I am keeping up
light work, and find the water and
baths here are doing me lots tof good. :
Sharkey's only objection to the stip-
ulations made by Jeffries is to fighting
in an 18-foot ring. The sailor wants
the battle to take place in 24-foot ring
as called for by Queensberry rules. He
will. however not insist on this point,
but will be guided by O'Rourke.

San Francisco. June 12.-Tom Shar-
key has received the following tele-
gram from his manager, Tom ORourke,
dated New York, June IL: 3gff
tom Sharkey, Paso Robes, Cal.
Have accepted Jeffries' challenge to
fight you early in September. You had
better come right here at once. There
is nothing out there. Answer.
tom OROURKE."
To the above the sailor replied:
"Paso Robes, Cal, June IL. Tom
O'Rourke, New York-Am at springs,
doing we'll; working right along. Will
leave for New York in three weeks, as
weather is rather warm there.
tom SHARKEY."
From the above it would appear that
the caustic challenge issued by Jeffries
just after his defeat of Fitzsimmons
will lead to some arrangements for a
battle between the aspiring sailor and
the new champion.
Sharkey is in good condition right
now, and very little work is required to
put him on edge for brushing contest
The sailor has practically been in train
ing for a month past and people capa-
BILE of judging say that he is in mag

Special Dispatch to the Standard.
San Francisco, June 12.-San Fran
cisco Labor council and Building
Trades council have issued a call for
a mass meeting to be held in Metro
politan hall Wednesday evening to
protest against the course pursued by
the civil and military authorities in
suppressing riots in the Occur d'Alene
district. 1t is the purpose of the two
organizations to call upon trades
unonists all over the country and eiti-
zens in general to hold similar meet
ings and some action looking to this
end is expected to be taken at the
meeting Wednesday night. The COM
mittee in charge of the arrangements
has requested the local trades unions
to march to the meeting in a body,
carrying their banners. The leaders of
the movement believe that the mill
tary authorities in Idaho are trying
to establish precedent by the aid of
which the right of combination in flu
ture will be of no value to the work
ing people, and it is for the purpose
of protesting against this that the
meeting has been called. 1t is an
nounced that ex-Congressman James
G. Mcguire ex-Judge Henry E. High
ton and Arthur r. Andree will be
among the speakers.

and the 81 boxes will be SIPS. This
will be gratifying news to those that
have boxes, and at the same time
speaks well for Missoula as it shows
that Missoula is moving ahead in the
way of population and in the increase
of the volume of business. The re-
ceipts at the pestoffice for the fiscal
year just ended was $4,000, the largest
amount this office has ever attained,
In consequence of which the postmas-
ter's salary will be raised to $1,000. 1t
Is expected that when the free delivery
system becomes in operation the re-
ceipts of the office will be materially
increased and that it will be only a
question of a few years that the office
will be made second-class office.
