perfect physical condition and fit to

makes no prediction as to the length
of the battle, Johnson declares his per
feet confidence in the ultimate result
Neither in word nor action does he
betray the slightest anxiety over the
outcome
Race prejudice and personal feeling
seem to govern the expert judgment
of the critics in regard to the fight
more than the records and Qualifica-
lions of the two fighters Among the
many pugilists and other old-time
ring followers who have gathered on
the scene of battle there are few who
do not declare that Jeffries will be
the winner-providing he has come
back" The whole issue seems to
hinge on the question as to whether
fighter can regain perfect condition
after being out of the ring for nearly.
ten years.
1t is hard for any one to draw a
line between the pair. The two are
probably the most formidable men
who ever stepped into the ring. John
sons extreme celeverness is admitted.
He is wonderful defense fighter-at
least this is the conclusion drawn
from his battles with Burns, Kauf-
man and Ketchel-and he has never
been really extended He is crafty,
cool-headed, even tempered and at
the same time merciless. A natuarl
boxer, he has shown remarkable skill
in blocking blows of all kinds and in
using stalling tactics.
On the other hand, the big black
pugilist is not a slugger. Neither is
he an aggressive rusher who can send
some tremendous swings and hooks !
while having his opponent on the
run. But he knows how to use an
effective right hand uppercut at criti-

fected until it is his stock in trade.
Clever, hard slugger and game to
the core, James j. Jeffries is consid-
cred by the greater number of critics
to be the most formidable man who
ever donned a glove Though he has
engaged in fewer fights than prob
ably any other man who ever held the
championship for an equal period he
administered decisive defeats to all
of the prominent fighters in his class,
including Tom Sharkey, Bob Fitzsim-
mons a1d Jim Corbett. His fighting
weight is greater than that of any
man since John L. Sullivan. His reach
exceeds that Of any of the latter-day
champions. In almost every measure
ment he has the advantage over John
son, with the exception of height. The
black fighter is about an inch taller.
Both victor and vanquished will
come out of Mondays battle with
thousands of dollars added to their
bank accounts. The purse amounts
to 100000, the largest ever offered.
OF this amount the winner will re-
ceive rs per cent as his share and
the loser 25 per cent. In addition to
this it is expected that both fighters
will realize vast sums from the pic
ture rights. The only doubt so far as
the financial end of the mill is con-
cerned relates to the promoters prof
its. While it is admitted that the
number OF spectators, especially from
a great distance, will be lessened by
the transfer of the battle from San
Francisco to Reno, the prospects
nevertheless appear bright for an i'm
mense crowd. If the ring enthusiasts
continue dropping into town tomorrow
as they have during the past twenty
four hours an attendance OF from
10000 to $4,000 is assured. At the
high prices charged for tickets a
10000 crowd will mean that the pro-
motors Of the fight will come out on
the right side.

Facts About the American Indians
Healthy Hair.

The American Indian accustomed
from time simmemorial to go bare.
headed in all kinds of weather is
never troubled with falling hair or
badness
The close atmosphere caused by
our civilized" head-gear is conducive
to the breeding of infinitesimal germs
which dig into the scalp and thrive
on the sap of the hair-root.
This true cause of badness is of re-
cent discovery and explains the non
success of all hair vigors which treat
ed badness as a functional disorder
