BETTORS FANCY
JACK JOHNSON
Make Him a Six to Ten Choice
Over Sam McVey, the
Herculean 0xnard Boxer
BOTH HAVE ASPIRATIONS
Each Wants to Be in a Posi-
ton to Force "Jim" Jefries
to Fight Him This Year

The bettors apparently think Jack
johnson. the colored boxer. has the
Indian sign on Sam McVey. the twen-
ty-year-old Oxnard Hercules. Johnson
has been made a TO 10 choice in the
betting on their third engagement,
which will take place tomorrow night
fn Mechanics Pavilion under the aus
pices OF the recently organized Shasta
Club.
These boxers met twice last year and
johnson gained the decision each time
on points. 1t has always been a case
OF a marvellous boxer against a man
with great strength and considerable
cleverness.
Mcvey was measured by DR.. Tillman
yesterday He is most deceptive IN
appearance. ones first impression being
that he is on the small order. The
tape shows him 10 be six feet in height
and all his measurements are in pro-
portion TO this. They are:
weiEht. 2os pounds: height. feet; neck. Is
snches: chest, Al inches normal 44h inches
so1esrn, I8 inohes; wrist, 75E inches: hst. I4It
fnches; waist 81 inches; hips, z1z inches
thigh. IS inches; calf, 1elz inches; ankle. 10
inches.
With all his size he is quick as a cat
On his feet and moves about in a 1.-THE,
graceful way.
Both McVey and Johnson feel that If
either wins decisively tomorrow night
shere is a chance Of Jeffries wiping out
the color line and fighting the success
ful man. With this as an incentive
the colored giants are expected TO put
UP fast pace.

Horton looked out of place in the
mile handicap at Oakland yesterday
with the colors of Charley McCafferty
I'D: but he ran a clever race at that,
even if beaten quite easily by Veterano,
the second choice.
Joe Jones, who rode the latter horse
in place of Fitzpatrick, seemed to know
how TO handle the Vivell entry better
than young Fitz. He had him in front
before the half mile pole was reached
and finished out with plenty in re-
serve. There was no pace to speak OF,
for Lewis had Horton right up on the
firing line all the time disposing of
Criss Cross by nearly a length for the
place. Gateway, the favorite, could
probably have won with more ex-
perienced rider up, Sherwood showing
10 poor advantage.
FIVE FAVORITES BEATEN.
Favorites suffered severe reverses in
five out of six attempts, until Byroner-
dale finally scored brackets. Facts,
Riesca, and Rio Shannon were the long

OIL LANDS IN IOWA
c. II. Woodward Living Near Manila
Thinks He Has a Bonanza.

Special to Times Republican.
Denison Nov. Pc. III. Woodland of
Manila, is endeavoring to interest sew
eral local capitalists in the formation
of stock company to develop Oil
land which he claims to have discover
ed on his property. Mr.. Woodland rs
greatly worked up over the discovery.
Mr.. Woodland says he struck pay oil
at a depth of about 200 feet. He says
that samples OF the oil have been as
sayed by the Standard Oil experts who
say ii tested 80 per cent. Mr.. Wood
ard also claims that the Standard OH
company made him an offer OF $4,000
for his land, but that he refused it, on
the theory that If he could organize
stock company he would make a larger
profit. Mr.. Woodland exhibited the
tested oil and oil sand to his friends
while in the city. The opinion is that
the we'll was sailed before he sent
the oil to be tested.
Mr.. Woodland says he has every faith
in his discovery, and is doing his best
to get IL company organized II this
cannot be done he intends to employ
expert drillers and have the lands
thoroughly tested to ascertain wheth-
er or not it would pay to have several
wells drilled.

Batavia. Nov. 22.--Carl Shelton. n
young man about Is years of age, tried
to commit suicide Saturday night by
shooting himself. The cause for the
rash act Is thought to have originated
from some trouble with a young woman
with whom he had kept company for
some time.
Saturday night about O'Clock, he
called at the home of Mrs Nolney
Ornduff. where the young woman In
question, had gone to spend the night
and called for her, but when she failed
to respond as soon as he thought she
should he drew his revolver and fired
the shot which may end his life.t The
bullet entered the body about one-half
an inch to the right of the heart. Dr.
John ii. Baldridge was called, and re-
covered the bullet and dressed the
wound, but Mr.. Shelton's condition at
present Is considered serious and much
anxiety Is felt by his relatives.

A HUsKING RECORD
S. p. johnston, a Prominent Hardin
County Farmer Celebrates His 5oth
Birthday by Husking ITO Bushels Of
Corn and Had Time to Spare,

Special to Times-Republican.
Eldora, Nov 22.-S. p. Johnston, n
prominent farmer northwest Of town,
was 90 years of age yesterday. He has
been quietly Listening Of late to some
pretty big corn husking stories and he
wondered II he was too old to get
busy" On his birthday he entered the
field with the determination to husk
100 bushels and some of the neighbors
laughed at him. At $50 last evening
Mr.. Johnson had husked ITO bushels,
had unloaded the four loads himself
and was ready to meet the swifts he
has heard so much about, The corn
weighed out bushel by bushel and this
record of shocking the yellow has
possibly never been equalled by man
of Mr.. Johnston's years.
