JEFFRIES AND PRIZE FIGHTING
KNOCKED OUT.

| What is likely to prove the last priz,
hight of consequence to be pulled off, in
this country took place at Reno, Nevada
ON the 4th of July, between James J. JEFF
fries of California, former undefeate6
heavyweight champion pugiIist of the
world, and John A. johnson, an Afro
American bruiser warranty accredited tc
Galveston, Texas, and ST. Helena parish
La, who earned the title of worlds cham
pion by defeating the successors of JEFF
fries after the latter's voluntary retire
ment from the roped arena.
1t was proclaimed before the recent
hight that Jeffries was in perfect condition.
that ne had come back" as strong and
active as ever, and the betting odds were
greatly in his favor at all times, vet he
was outclassed by his black antagonist in
every particular and was knocked down
three times in the fifteenth round. when
his seconds threw up the sponge. The
stakes for which this istic battle was
fought was the largest on record-S101
0O0, divided on the basis of sixty per cent
to the winner and forty per cent to the
ioser-and the crowd and gate receipts
were also record-breakers, about 10000
people having paid from $40 to $50 each
to see the mill. The promoters of the
event cleared over 100000 after pavina
the stakes and all expenses, and both the
did as well, having sold their
respective interests in the moving pictures
of the fight for over $4,000 each.
San Francisco was originally selected as
the site for this inter-racial scrap, but
Gov. Gillett forbade its taking place in
California. Recourse was then had to
free-and easy Nevada. probably the only
state in the Union that would tolerate
such exhibitions, and the doors are to he
closed against them even there after the
list of september next Hence the rele-
7ancy of the caption to these few remarks
indicating that Jeffries and prize fighting |
we're both knocked out on the alorions
