The demand for seats for the fight is
enormous and it is certain a record
breaking house for small men will be
seen. The advance sale has reached
close to the $4,000 mark, with a fair
chance of this figure being doubled
when the doors of Woodward's pavilion
are swung open.
The Californian has not had any trou-
Bile in making the required 100 pounds
so that his exercise Thursday was of the
lightest variety. The champion was in
his automobile the greater part Of yes
terday, but at dawn he was out on the
road heavily clad and went through
such severe road work that he returned
to his quarters dripping with perspira-
ton. He was not allowed liquids and it
appears that he has had trouble as
usual, in getting down to the limit.
Spider" Kelly will have charge of
Britt's corner, while Harry Tuthill will
command the forces of the champion.

There is not minutes let up when
Corbett gets down to real business every
day. Tuthil1 never permits him out of
his sight for a second and when the
running and boxing is over for the day
there is a rundown that would take the
hide off the ordinary mortal. Corbett
enjoys this grueling process from his
rubbers and stands the kneeding and
humping with stole expression.
Britt looks like a race horse He IS
drawn exceptionally fine, but intends to
have a chance to build up just little
bit during the day He will dry out
thoroughly and claims that when he is
on the scales at o'clock this evening
he will be at lower weight If anything

hall of fame. Wagner is still angry
at himself for his poor play in the
worlds championship series last tail.
When asked about the matter last
night, Wagner said: mot by me. 1
was too bum last year. I was a joke
in that Boston-Pfttsburg series. What
does it profit a man to hammer along
and make Il few hits when they are
not needed. only to fall down when it
comes to pinch? 1 would be ashamed
to have my picture put up now"
President Dreyfuss promises, in spite
of Wagner's stand, that he would see
to it that the big fellow became good
and sent his picture to the league
headquarters from Hot Springs.
