JOHNSON AT LAST
 AGREES ID FIGHT

NEW YORK, July S.-After much
 backing and filling on the part or
 Jack Johnson it is now said that he
 will fight Al Kaufman 20 rounds It
 Colma on Sept r, under the auspices
 of promoter Coffroth. As in Ketchel's case, Johnson does not want to take part in a bout of more than 20 rounds with Delaney's man because he be lieves that he can stall and win on points in a battle of that kind. As | it took 8 rounds for Kaufman t.s make Jim Barry, second rater, stop, the opinion prevails on the coast that the big Californian cannot make an impression on Johnson in 20 reuds. ! Kaufman lacks KetchePs aggressive. , ness and speed. He is a hard puncher, but is lacking in generaiship and quickness of thought. He is as tall and as heavy as Johnson and is dead game, but that is about all.
 If Kaufman should get a decision over Johnson he would doubtless claim
 the heavyweight title. but such an iu. cident would not interfere with the negro's fight with Ketchel in Octobe-. If Ketchel should stop Johnson, sport ing men agree, Kaufman would be in i line for fight with the Michigan lion for the rings highest honors and
 Fetchel would be heavily backed to win

POUR SHOW MADE
 BY KETCHEL
Fight Fans Disguised and Want Kaufman Substituted
 With Johnson
FIGHTER LOSES MUCH
 OF FORMER PRESTIGE

SAN FRANCISCO, July S.-Sports here have come to the conclusion that ar"tler ensngonent between Ketchcl and ParSe is necessary before the middleweight championship is decid- ed, and before Ketchel tackles Jack Johnson in a heavyweight engage ment.
 Upon the showing made Monday. Ketchel would not have the chance ot the proverbial snowfall against The Galveston black, and it is extremely doubtful if either he or Papke could stall off Sam Langford for more than a limited number of rounds.
 A telegram from Langford, chaI- lenging the winner of Mondays bat tie, was read by Billy Jordan, and Ketchel could do much wo SC than take on the Boston black for twenty rounds prior to the Johnson fight. It would draw the biggest kind of q crowd here.
 Ketchers inability to knock ont Papke Monday inside of ten rounds. as he had bragged he would do. has hurt his prestige here. and local sports believe CoffrOth will have 70 substitute Al Kaufman for KstcheI in the proposed fight with Jack Johnson for Portola Celebration week in Oc- tobef.
 Ccffroth knows he couldn't draw q big crowd with Ketchel. after the sorry showing Ketchel made with Papke, but Kaufman has greatly i'm proved as a boxer, he is as large as the big negro, and ne has knockout punch in either hand The problem rould be whether Johnson's cleverness would win over Kaufnan's strength and youth.
 Failing in his desire to get a desi- nite answer from Willis Britt as to a Ie urn match with :SIaa.y ketehel, Billy Papke signed articles for ten round fight with Jim Flynn before Tom McCarey's club in Los Angeles. July IT.
 McCarey, after the match was sign ed up. in which he agreed to give Papke 40 per cent of the gross, lei. for Los Angeles. This was the match KetcheI had agreed to accept, but on account Of the so-ca1ied injuries to his hands was obliged to call off.
 T had a long talk with Willis Britt and Ketchel this morning" said Ed Papke. We wanted return match for forty-five rounds the worst way. but Britt kept stalling. and saying he could not tell me just when we could have the match. McCarey insisted upon an immediate answer, and we accepted his terms. Because of the Flynn fight we will not be able to accept any match with Ketchel until August or Septenber. eW would prefer the September date. Britt talks like having Ke<chel fight Johnson first, but after Ketchei's showing, I don't see how he can ass a fight with a heavyweight before iis meets Papke again. There is no use complaining over the decision any more. Of course, we think that u should have been a draw"

 The argument wrought the attor. neys to a high pitch of excitement and their voices rang through the a. most deserted room with all the feTvor of an address to the jury.

NEW OUTF|ELDER
 FOR B|SBEE
Manager Wolf Lands His Op- tics On One Alleged
 Star Player
RANDOM IS INTERESTED
 IN NEXT DOUGLAS CLASH

That Manager Wolf is continuing the still hunt for extra good timber to be employed in the Bisbee baseball aggregation was demonstrated last evening when it became known that he had annexed another stellar at traction in the way of an outfielde- who can also do credible service on the diamond.
 Rumor has it that it is Dean Woods but Manager Wolf won't have it either way. He smiles when quas- toned as to whether he will use the same lineup as at present in his nest games but frowns when asked the identity of the new man or men. To be explicit, he just wishes to wai- until he sees that he is certain os making the new additions and when they are anchored, it will be his pleas ure to inform the public within plenty of time to get line on the new-com- CTS and create the interest that VII naturally be forthcoming.
 While fandom is interested in the next games to be played at Fl Paso. they are decidedly more intereste.l in the game next Wednesday after noon to be played at Warren with tie O'Donovan Demon aggregation from Douglas. Regardless of the fact that Douglas took the two games here on the Fourth, the fans are now more eager than ever to witness the third game of the struggle
 It is nc secret that the visitors had the stronger aggregation when last here but it doesn't necessarily follow that such will be the case when next they meet. Not if Manager Wolf and Captain Dorsch can prevent it and the fans believe they can.

Princeton, '0S, has discovered a new
comet. His latest discovery was made
shortly after 8 o'clock last night, but
the announcement was made today, the
news being sent to the Harvard OBJ

tribution to astronomers.
The comet, according to Mr.. Daniel,
is moving slowly north, and is visible

stayed up most of the night, getting
his calculations straight for commune
cation to Harvard observatory today,
When seen this morning he said:
Il found the comet with a 5%-inch
comet-seeker during a Systematic
search for comets, in which 1 have beer
engaged for three years. I noticed
shortly after 9 O'Clock, a round, hazy
spot in the sky, and watched it closely
