They know by the looks of the man
that he lis on his way to Reno"
There are railroad men in the Flood
building who have never attended a
fight in their lives. but they are going
to attend the Jeffries-Johnson fight.
There was a rumor around the building
a few days ago that annual passes
would not be recognized to Reno for the
fight, but the passenger officials of the
company feel that this would be hard
ship on many of the railroad men.
PLANS FOR GOOD TIME
1t is interesting to know of the
plans for a good time the managers of
the special trains have planned. The
ST.. Francis special has arranged to
open a lunch counter in the baggage
car during meal hours. Two of the
chefs from the hotel will be along on
the trip and all they will have to do
will be to cook. Large supplies OF wet
goods will also be placed in the bag
gage car and special entertainment
will be given in each car. Everything
for the comfort of~the passengers will
be provided. Tom CoFbett has ar
ranged similar program for the spe-
cial that bears his name. The Indoor
yacht club has also promised a bully
time.
The railroad company has called on
the citizens of Reno TO take steps to
provide at least 5000 people with food.
Those on special trains and in private
cars will be able to sleep on their cars.
but the other several thousand will
undoubtedly find it hard to find place
to lay their heads. Advices from Reno
to II. r. Judah are to the effect that
they have accommodations for 10000,
h11t ms nf "a Ci 20
sports don't like to take that chance
and are trying to secure space in the
special trains. If others would or
ganize special trains there is no doubt.
according to the present outlook, that
they could be supplied. The railroad
requires a guarantee of 125 pasSeng gers
for special. Naturally an extra Pull
man charge would be exacted for the
sleeping accommodations accorded
while in Reno.
There will be no delay in getting all
of these special trains to Reno in time
for the fight. Nor will there be any
delay of regular eastbound or west
bound trains. The Southern Pacific has
only single track, except in two in
stances, between here and Reno, but
the time has been so arranged by the
transportation department that every
train should reach its destination on
time.
To show that the railroad company
is trying to accommodate the public
and satisfy every one, one of the pas
senger officials. probably H.. r. Judah.
will go to Reno with a large staff OF
clerks on the night OF July and will
be on hand all that day seeing that the
public gets back to work on July 5.
Those who have an opinion as TO who
will win the fight have been advised to
purchase round trip tickets

Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

IL
RENO, New, June 2S.-Having bust
ness in The Cali headquarters this
morning / was introduced to Battling
Nelson. We talked together concern
which to me was very gentlemanly.
He asked me TO go out to the training
camps in The Calls auto and interview
Johnson and Jeffries and then give my
impressions of the two men.
Thinking of the class of boys gath
tion in my church, about so strong, and
remembering my teaching to the boys
of a perfect physical condition as a
genuine requisite to a sound mental
or moral living, I concluded that it
was my privilege to see two men who
are accounted perfect physical types of
beings in their respective races. So
accepted.
JOHNSON Is MODEST
At 2:30 o'clock we started and We're
driven to Rick's roadhouse. Mr.~John-
son very readily consented to an inter-
view and I found him a very pleasant
man and not at all stuck up because
the followers of the fight game try
to make him a hero. He was very
modest in his talk and not at all given
to boasting.
My first question to him, after we
had talked about physical development,
was: do you believe that a person
can become physically perfect and
train to physical strength and use al
coholic bevera ges?"
Although insisting that drink once in
a i1a r. ST. Il
that a person can not train and become
perfect physical contestant by the
use of alcoholic drinks as a beverage.
Johnson was preparing to go out for
his afternoons training. He stood
before me stripped to show his physical
development. | was astonshed at the
great muscles of his shoulders and
chest and arms, and on my feeling them
he said
IF you had an arm like that. Mr..
Wilson, you could pound the Bible and
pound religion into the people"
When he said that / felt that l would
like to make him a FOUNDER of re-
lligion for the good of humanity in
stead of a body FOUNDER and bruiser.
My impression is that Jack johnson is
a good enough fellow in his way, but
he is in bad business and a wrong
business.
MEETS MIKE MURPHY
The Impressions gained at Johnson's
camp do not at all change my opinion
that this is all wrong and that the
fight on the fourth of July will not be
a benefit to Reno and Nevada. but a
backset to our state in it's efforts to
be self-respecting and morally clean.
III shall maintain the position stated
last Sunday evening, when women and
girls were warned not to be out in the
dark unless with gentlemen escorts.
found Johnson a very intelligent
| man, but, of course. his intelligence was
warped. He sees no harm in the fight
ing game. It's a business. and the
impression received from the facts of
the business was received from the
comment Of one man: He only has to
work once in while to get the coin.'
So it's business of. the dollar, and not
