BURNS TO HAVE
HARD BATTLE
HAS HAD MANY EASY CON-
QUESTS BUT IS UP AGAINST
THE REAL THING NOW, SAYS
JEFFRIES.

Tommy Burns scheduled Austral-
ian battle with big, black Jack
Johnson will be the first real fight
that the present heavyweight cham
pion has had in many a long month.
If the meeting between Burns and
the Texas negro is on the level-and
have no reason to believe ether
wise-'t will be practically the only
time that Tommy has been called
uron to extend himself since he has
been recognized as the heavyweight
champion of the world.
Burns bouts with Bill SQuires,
Jack Palmer. Jem Roche and the
rest of those fellows were all in the
rature of joke. don't believe that
any other champion was ever pre-
sented with one-fourth the easy"
money that has blown across Burns
path during the past year.
The hardest fight that Tommy
Burns ever had was right here in
Fighting Fireman who gave 1t to
him. Burns knocked out Flynn in

club. at Maud Junction. on the night
OF October 2, 1906, but Tommy did

Burns probably considers that he
has now swept the path clean with
the excep ion of Johnson. Tommy is
OF a saving disposition. He has plen-

possibilities. He can return to Am

been completely exhausted. to say
nothing of the theatrical field.
Tommy Is shrewd and far-seeing
and in my estimation has all the
better OF the conditions as they ex-
list In connection with the approach
ing engagement in Australia. In the
first place johnson has been COM
(pelled to trail Burns half way
around the world. To use popular
slang expression Tommy has landed
Johnson's goat by these tantalizing
methods and this ruffling of John
sons temper is all in Tommy's
favor.
Another thing. and enc that is
rost important, Is the fact that
Burns has been In Australia for
many weeks. He has become thor

and his methods until he knows
them by heart. The CsHadian prob

Johnson's weakest point whatever Il

masterful battle.
