THE PUGILISTS
The Great Majority of People Do Not like the Burns and
 Jobn,on Match.

A well known handler of pugilists who has seen both Tommy Burns and Jack Johnson box said yester- day that if Burns does not win the coming mill at Sydney inside of ten rounds he will be beaten by knock out. But this man, who also knows the methods of fighters who care more for money than glory, declared that 1t would not surprise him at all If the fight was queer Burns Is to get $50, 0,000, win, lose or draw 5000. Burns could easily hand over his share of the money to John son to induce the negro to quit and afterward Burns could refuse to fight Johnosn again and could tour the world picking up fortune in gold. Burns is worth probably $200,000 to-day. while Johnson hasn't got nickel. You can judge for yourself whether there will be a square fight or not, but as far as 1 am concerned l wouldn't bet a cigar on the result" Jack CTwin) Sulli- van is among those who believes that the big fight is on the level. ''lf il was frameup as some sports claim says Sullivan, Burns would not have offered me round trip tickets and $500 10 train him in Australia for this battle.
 Burns does not throw away his money, and if the fight was not on the square he could have secured some one in Sydney to train him for comparatively nothing" Other ring followers say that they cannot un- derstand why Burns and Johnson de- cided upon Sydney as the battle ground when they could probably have secured at least the same amount of coin to settle their differ ences in California. Australia is a long way off, is the way some men put it, and what comes off there will be never be truly known in this country. The fight is good thing to let alone"
 James J. Jeffries has become an ardent supporter of Freddie Welch, the English lightweight who recent ls bCub A Abt NllCll III d HllCCl louHu bout and has since challenged Bat ting Nelson for the championship of the world at 133 pounds. Jeffries in an interview, says of the Briton:
 "Welch is one of the years great est surprises. Outside of being a clever second rate boxer, he received very little attention when he arrived in California several months ago Since then, however, this clean lit tie man has held Packey Mcfarland to long twenty-five round draw, has defeated Abe Attell with ease and has knocked out couple of lesser lights of the ring. He is now legitimate challenger for the light weight championship of the world and if Nelson takes him on it will be a hard fight.

Machinery for
Nevada DesMoines
General Manager Mahedy
Returns from Purchas-
ing Trip East.

General Manager D. C. Maize
dy, of the Nevada-Des Moines
company, has returned from an
extended trip to Iowa and other
eastern points. He has been alb
sent in the interest of his COM
pany, which has such promis-
ing showing. The main object
was to purchase necessary ma
chinery for the property. which
he succeeded in doing before re-
turning.
In the carload of machinery
which has been shipped, there
are, among other things, a gaso-
line hoist, latest improved ma
chine drills and an air compress
or, with all the appurtenances
necessary for the successful
working of the mine in a modern
manner.
AS soon as this machinery is
installed and in complete work
ing order, three shifts will be put
to work in the shaft sinking.
The object is to attain the depth
at which the diamond drill en-
countered the rich gold and sill
yer values as quickly as possible.
Mr.. Mahedy is confident that
with ordinary success in the in
stallation of the machinery and
sinking, he will be in a position
to ship high grade before fall.

"Mendha to Ship"

T. ]. Osborne arrived from
Salt Lake City the first of the
week and will remain in Phoebe
for some time before returning.
Mr.. Osborne's visit at this time
IS in a large measure due to the
anticipated resumption of oper-
ations at the Mendha mine, in
which he is a large owner. He
stated that machinery has been
ordered and is now en- route, and
should be1on the property within
a few days. With the installa-
ton of the machinery completed
the company will Immediately
commence the shipment of ore.
Much development work has
heretofore been prosecuted, so
that the condition of the mine is
ideal for the handling of large
tonnage. With this end in view
machine drills are to be used.
and it is stated that there will be
employment for large force of
"muckers" in handling the ore
when it is broken. The Mendha
is recognized as a good mine,
and will materially assist in en-
larging the weekly shipments
from this point.

out twelve carloads of ore from
Pioche during the past week.
That fact bears out the state
ment contained in the special
message from Boston to the
Herald quoted above, but it tells
only a portion of what might be
said in the same connection.
For instance. it is generally
known that all of this ore comes
from the company's Day mine
at Jack Rabbit, and is what is
considered low-grade ore. 1t is
also a matter of knowledge here
that two weeks or so ago a great
strike of high-grade ore was
made in this same mine, ore the
first carload of which indicated
a gross value Of nearly $i2O a
ton. This new strike is UNDER
stood to be one of exceeding
merit and size, and it is counted
upon to make all kinds of money
for the company. 1t is said that
the mine contains a tremendous
tonnage of the low-grade ore
that is being sent out, and that
while there is only a profit of SIS
to So and $40 a ton in it, accord
ing to what portion of the mine
it comes from, the quantity is
there, and its quality for iuxing
purposes at the smelters is such
that it will be certain to find a
market at all times.
The company, it is under
stood, is not yet ready to begin
regular production from it's Ray
mond & Ely and Meadow Valley
mines in the Phoebe camp, but
when it is, its present rate of
shipments and earnings will look
small in comparison"
