The engagement and
wedding news holds the
most conspicuous place
in society annals of the
day and the bride elect
has almost a monopoly
of social attention this
week. One of the sur
prises of the month was
the announcement yes
terday that Miss Grace
Holt was to be the bride
of Ralph Lohman at a
wedding to be celebrated
Thursday, June 8, in the
Swedenborgian church.
There really has not
been a formal announce
ment of the betrothal
and the wedding cards
sent out yesterday were
the first intimation many
friends Of the young
couple had of the inter
esting news. The en-
gagement was told a few
days ago at an informal
dinner given at the
home OF Mr.. and Mrs.
Parker Holt, but there
were only relatives and
a few close friends at
the enga cement party.
The news was practic-
ally a secret until the
wedding cards disclosed
the romantic fact. Miss
Holt is a sister of
Parker Holt and of Mrs.
David Leith Mckay, who
was Miss Edith Holt.
The family home is at
Mountain View, but the
bride elect is a favorite
in the local set and has
been in town a great
part of the time. After
& brief wedding journey
the young couple will
reside at Mountain View.

MONDAY TELLS THE TALE
JOHNSON OR JEFFRIES.
Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
San Francisco, Cal, June 25.-One
thing made clear by Governor Gil
let's interference with the champion
ship ring event is that both Johnson
and Jeffries are determined to fight.
Number of wagers have been made
that the contest would not take place,
and those who made them were bank
ing on what they believe to be the in
tentions of one or the other OF the
principals.
Many felt that when the psychology
cal moment arrived Jeffries would
find some way to declare himself out
of the affair, possibly by means OF
a DOCTORS certificate setting forth that
he was unfit physically for the brunt
of a hard battle. Others had the
idea that Johnson would fly the coop
some time before the Fourth and not
a few of those who held this view
based their calculations on Johnson's
seeming Indifference to everything
connected with the big fight, and in
particular to the glowing accounts re
garding Jeffries' condition which came
from the opposition camp.
But as a touch of nature make the
whole world kin, a Whit of trouble
made Johnson and Jeffries stand forth
in their true colors. At first each Of
the big fellows was daZed at the news
that the fight would be stopped so fal
as San Francisco was concerned
When the shock passed ava!
each of them said he wa'
prepared to go whichever di
rection Tex led. All the doubt a
to the personal intentions and mo
tives of each man are now dissipated
It is felt that Johnson and Jeffrie
will have it out on the Fourth, no maj
ter what place is selected for tn
battle.
Monday afternoon at Reno, New
will he staged the greatest glove COZ
test for the largest purse in the his
tory of pugilism. Jack Johnson, tn

newspapers to send boxers to the ring
side to report the important glove
contests. At Reno on the Fourth of
July there will be three noted pugil-
lists acting as ringside correspond
ents. They are John L.. Sullivan,
Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, and Bat
ling Nelson. An Eastern paper had
planned to- get Joe Cans to report the
battle, but poor old Cans is SO weak
from consumption down in Arizona
that he will hardly nave strength
enough to get to the arena, let alone
do a strenuous days work alongside
of the hustling correspondents. Bob
Fitzsimmons and Tommy Burns are
coming over from Australia to see
the fight. The appearance of Burns
on the ground will give his friends a
chance to greet him for the first time
since losing the heavyweight cham
pionship to Jack Johnson at Sydney
Australia, on December rs, 1908.

out the militia if the promoters at
tempted to pull off the match on the
Fourth of July. The men behind the
match had spent a small fortune ma
king ready for the event, and, when
the Governors message came declar-
ing al bets off Messrs. Richard and
Gleason were left in the hole. A mon
ster pile of lumber shaped into an
arena is left standing on Twelfth and
Market streets in the earthquake
city, as a tribute to the law and or
der Of the Golden State of California.
1t should be remembered by fol
lowers of the manly art that the same
talk that is going the rounds now
about Jack Johnson selling out was
rife previous to the Johnson-Burns
mill in Australia. A number of John
sons personal friends of Galveston,
Texas, wired him for straight news
and he unhesitatingly replied: Bet
all you have and all you can borrow
on me. | will win sure" They took
him at his word, and the results are a
part of the history or pugilism in
the world.
1t is said by some of good authority
that the real cause OF the break be-
tween Fitzpatrick and Johnson was
because the big champion would not
lay down to Burns; Johnson is as
certain of victory on July the Fourth,
There is no plausible reason why he
should sell out in this contest, when
he has everything to gain. To win
means a fortune and to lose mean an
eternal disgrace, and it would be inn
possible to convince the world that
the fight was on the level, for every
body believes Johnson the best man.
