Mill Valley in Favor of Big
Game Preserve

MILL VALLEY, July 24-At a special
meeting held here last night the men,
bers of the Mill Valley board of trus-
tees put themselves on record unani-
mously to favor the movement to es-
tablish a game preserve on Mount
Tamalpais. after listening to long
address. by Attorney William Denman
of San Francisco. who is. the attorney
for William Kent in the matter.
During the progress of his address
Denman. who is a member of the Sierra
club. said that he already has had
several interviews with members of the
fish and game commission and that he
received assurances from them to the
effect that the commission would es-
tablish the proposed 1900 acre pre-
serve. Denman. however. claimed that
this action would be taken only pro-
vided the citizens of Marin county en-
tered into the scheme and gave it their
cooperation.
While there is some opposition on
the part of citizens in and about Lark
spur, Ross, Kentfeld and San Anselmo
to the proposed preserve for reason
that the property is privately owned
the feeling in Mill Valley is favorable
to the proposed project
At present the land that would be
within the bounds of the preserve is
owned by several big interests. notably
the Howard Shafter estate. North Coast
water company, William Kent and the
Marin water and power company Pri-
vate patrols are employed by several
of these interests to protect their lands
from fire, and these patrols also keep
hunters from killing deer on the coun-
tryside under their control.

Jeff Demands 100000 to
Fight Black Jack

OH look at the latest from the lips Of
JEFF! One hundred thousand dollars TO
fight Johnsonl This comes right on top
of his announcement that he will be
ready to post his forfeit tomorrow. It's
the funniest thing that the big fellow
has said yet. and it comes over the
wires all the way from Minneapolis
where the human bear is now doing
turn.
1t is very evident from this that Jen
is not going to fight the big black man
and that ne is now looking for an out
after reaping golden harvest before
the footlights. He will make the bluff
that he Is ready to fight. and then he
Will set his price so high that all the
fans will laugh at him and then roast
him for his cowardice. Jefrrfes must
think that everybody else in the world
is boob outside ef himself
If the big fellow keeps on with this
line of talk lie will surely go back to
the ranch. and probably on a rail under
guard of some vigilance COMMITTEES
Anyhow. he is in a fair way to become
the. pugilistic joke of the century. II
has been pretty soft for JEFF during the
la gix months, but if he thinks anv-

his he had better lay off this sort Of
