TEN TO SEVEN THE
 ODDS ON JEFFRIES

Reno, New July iBetting)- to seven that Jeff will win even money that he won't win in twenty rounds" shouted the megaphone boost CT outside Tom Corbetts pooiroom to- night. These figures fairly represent the prevailing odds on the fight, but there was little betting. One heard rumors of this or that sporting celeb rity offering large amounts on Jeff or on Johnson, but usually these rumors when run down ended in nothing tangl- ble.
 Jim Corbett let it be known that he had $SO00 to place on his friend Jef- fries, this sum being a pool sent over from San Francisco by Jeffries' admir- CTS The placing of it was not in evi- dence around the pool room where a heterogeneous crowd loafed and slept in chairs.

 CROWDED IN RENO

Reno, July 2.-(Special. )-Twenty thou sand persons will be at the ringside on Monday afternoon when Jim Jeffries ant Jack Johnson begin their glove contest for the heavyweight championship of the world. Ten thousand of them are already in Reno, and another ten thousand are coming from the east and west in special trains, regular Pullmans and tourist cars, immigrant trains and freight cars any way to get on the ground and have the price of a ticket to the big show. Yesterday marked the last day of train ing in both camps.
 'Ill win in the first round with one punch if possible. .'-James J. Jeffres.
 'I will bring home the bacon; I'll wear him own."-Jack Johnson.
 The above are the laconic statements of the two fighters.
 Immediately afte, the battle Johnson will take a special train for Chicago, when he will repair at once to his home.
 Jeffries will~wait until Tuesday morning for his departure, and it is said that he will then go back to Rowardennan for months rest. In any event this will be the white champions las. appearance in the squared arena.
 Fair weather with perhaps a brisk west wind is the prediction of the ''cyclone man." and it will be a great day for Reno and the world in general.

New Orleans is very anxious to ac- quire the services of Derrill Pratt, hard hitting infielder.
 Pratt is playing first base for Hat tiesburg in the Cotton States, his bat ting average being .45o.
 Pratt belongs to Montgomery, and Greminger gives $ a reason for farm ing the player the fact that his arm was bad.
 Hattiesburg, 1t is understood, is will Ing to let New Orleans have Pratt, but Montgomery isn't.
 Manager Demont thinks that Mont gomery has no right to hold a player whose salary 1t does not pay, and an interesting little argument is expected.
 On account of light batting, Demont plans to go to the bench.
 Pratt is one of the coming ball play CTS of the country.
 He was formerly with the University of Alabama, and was skilled under tn e direction of Dr. J. w. H. Pollard, than perfect trainer and disciplinarian. He Is equally at home on third. second or short, can play first where he Is now, or catch. He would star in the out field.
 Some managers who hesitate to take Pratt now under the excuse that his arm has been bad, will probably live to regret their neglect. He is abso- lutely certain to come. His fielding is

John Stratford who struck out 15 Bessemer men, and al lowed only two hits, will be in the box for Montgomery; Moriarity, known here in basketball circles, will hold first; Evans Henning, a former Birmingham boy, will catch, and there will be plenty of excitement from beginning to end.
