Jeffries, and that advantage would be
more than offset by the difference In their
ages, and the fact that the Californian
had not engaged In a fight in several
years.
He pointed out that. according TO his
theories, he would outlook Jeffries, both on
the offensive and defensive; was quicker
puncher and in certain positions could de-
liver blow fully as powerful as any that
Jeffries ever showed in his championship
battles. In his talk he indicated that he
did not hold Jeffries a cheap opponent.
and clearly stated that ne was not going
to take any risk whereby his opponent
might win with one punch or ewing. He
showed, too, that he did not believe that
Jeffries would ever regain the form which
marked his career five or six years ago.
1t was evident that johnson had care
fully studied the many angles Of the task
that is before him and had. TO a certain
extent, marked out both his training and
fighting campaign. AS the confident put

Pennsy's Relay
Races Filling
Princeton Already Entered, Cornell
and Columbia Expected in
Any Day.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March 26.-Penn-
syvania's relay races viii again bring
about fine freshman contest Penn"
and Princeton have entered and It is
hoped that teams from Columbia and Cor
nell win enter. This race has been held
for four years. and Penn" and Princeton
have each won 1t twice. This year will
be the deciding race. Penn" has one very
good man in Mercer, the George school
runner. and there are several 9th
ers trying for the team. Murphy hopes
70 turn the tables on the Tigers, though
ne win have his troubles 10 do so II they
can bring down such fast quartet as
they had last year
Princeton has entered in the varsity
races and hopes to have a team, in both
the one-mile and two-mile college relay
championships Its other best men win
be entered in the special events.
All the big colleges. with the single ex-
ception Of Harvard, have cent assurance
that they viii be represented in one or
the other OF the events. The Crimson
will undoubtedly be on hand. as they have
very fine track team, and at no other
games can they meet such representative
athletes as at the relays.
In fact, they came in a steady stream, and
the prospects are the Philadeiphians will
see an even better meet than was held last
year, when the high water mark in track
and field meets seemed to be reached.
The schools are very enthusiastic and
seem to be very well pleased with the
classes, as there have been very few re-
monstrances. Lawrenceville. Mercersburg
and Brown Prep have already entered
the one-miIe preparatory school champion
ship, while Philadelphia Central High
Brooklyn Manual Training High. Atlantic
City High and Philadelphia Central Man
ual Training High have sent in their
names for the high school honors. As
several other high class schools are sure
to enter these events, they win produce
two very high class and interesting con-
tests.

w eStern Man
for Referee
Believed a Californian Will Be the
Third Man with Jeffries and
johnson.

NEW YORK. March 2s.-That the referee
for the coming battle between Jeffries and
Johnson win be western man is almost an
assured fact. While the names OF eastern
men have been mentioned. there is not one
OF them enthusiastic about his chances.
Charlie White says It is a sure thing that
a Californian will referee, and he is thor
oughly in accord with such a conclusion.
He says It would be casting reflections on
the ability of the western men II an eastern
man was chosen to fln the position. Il
X ow." said White, that IL the fight were
taking place in the east I should not like to
see a western man brought on to referee
it. There are just as good men out there
as there are here and as the promoters are
western men, Jeffries a Californian and
Johnson from Texas, why should an eastern
man be brought into the matter. AS I said
before, 1t is a sure thing that the referee
will be Californian
From all accounts there are three men in
line for the job Of splitter in the coming
f1ght-Charies Eyton. who has refereed
many fights in Los Angeles-in fact, all
the prominent contests Of late; Jack
Welsh o. San Francisco who has done duty
on many occasions in his native town. and
Ed Smith. who overlooked the recent con-
test between wolgast and Nelson. IT Is
almost an understood thing that the referee
viii be a native son OF California Jeffries
is said to be in favor of Eyton and John
son believes In the ability Of Welsh while
Smith viii have many friends Of the two
fighters recommending him.
There have been some arguments that q
fight Of such Importance should have a
referee and two Judges, but they have not
met with much favor. The oldtimers claim
that II one man cannot decide winner
three cannot. This is a rather weak argu-
ment, as three heads are sometimes better
than one in such cases, especially in decid-
ing fouls and roughing tactics, as a foul
win frequently occur and not be seen by
the referee, while the judges may have
seen It.

AT THE ARIZONA
 MICHIGAN

A contract was let March by Su- perintendent N. A. Nelson of the Ari- zona Michigan mining property for the sinking of accompaniment inclined shaft on the Blackbird claim, located 1000 feet east of the Telfair shaft.
 The depth to which the Blackbird shaft will be sunk will depend largely upon the character of the vein matter developed by the work Some time ago, sinking was begun on the Blackbird vein and was continued to the depth of sixty-six feet following the pitch of the vein. At this depth, the vein is four feet wide and contains an abund- ance of oxides of iron and manganese. The walls are well defined and the vein appears to be continuous, as the walls are of limestone for the full length of the shaft.
 Good progress is being made on the north crosscut, on the 500-foot level of the Telfair shaft, where over fifteen feet of faulted diorite have been passed through during the past two weeks near the contact of this formation, with quartzite and shale in which the work IS now progressing at distance of 535 feet from the shaft. Quartzte is the prevailing formation in this crosscut.

age copper content is maintained at 9 per cent. From the sixth level, the Great Eastern winze is sunk more than fifty feet, and this, also, contributes some of the shipping ore as it follows the dip of the Great Eastern vein from which the stoping at the level above is producing the greater portion of the 9 per cent ore. The McGaw shaft is be- ing sunk below the sixth level and this work will be continued to the S00-foot level, where the crosscuts will be start ed and the Great Eastern vein will again be opened for extraction of ore. From the present state of development, the eighth level should be quite as pro ductive of ore a sthose above Drift ing on the 400-foot level of the Gard ner shaft is in progress to the westward. Two faults have been intersected by the level workings of the shaft, and work is being continued in these work ings with the expectation of developing ore at both faults.

CHURN DRILL AT CORDOvA MINE

The Star churn drill work on the Flu. reka group of claims, constituting part of the Cordova Copper company's min eral land, has put down two holes and is now being moved to the third loca- tion, 400 feet east of the second hole.
 The first hole was sunk to depth of 495 feet, and for the greater part of that distance was in granite porphyry, which, from the 120-foot point down, contained enough chalcocite to make much of the material of commercial grade. The formation encountered at the second location is very similar to that drilled through at the point where churn drill operations were begun. This second hole was put down to a depth of 6l5 feet. While, at both these loca- tions, not all the ground below the l2O- foot point was of commercial grade, by any means, yet, in each instance, a con tinuous body of sulphide commercial ore about 100 feet thick was developed, thus making the general results of the churn drill work most gratifying.
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1910-03-13
NATIONAL MAKES GOOD SHOWING

The latest development in the Will Hams shaft of the National Mining Ex- ploration company at the depth of 620 feet shows an increase in the copper content of the quartzite. Since reach ing the contact between the shale and quartzite at a depth of 600 feet, the copper content has steadily increased to the present depth. The shaft is being put down at the rate of twenty-five feet each week, and at this rate, interesting developments are to be looked for in the near future, as the present occur renee of carbonate ore in the lower DOT tion of the shaft is a feature very en- cOuraging to the management.
 Close watch is being maintained at the present depth of the work, as the vein should be encountered at this level, according to the meager indications ob tainabe at the surface, where the out croppings are in evidence. Additional evidence of the existence of the vein is obtainable by study of the other mines in that section of the district, as the formation is practically the same throughout the underground workings of at least two of the adjoining developed mines, the Arizona Commercial and the Superior & Boston, in both of which the ore-bearing veins occur in shale, quartz ite and diabase near limestone contacts.
 A force of twenty men is employed by Superintendent H. w. Woodward.

 At present two drifts and two raises are being driven at the Live Oak mine Drift No. 30S is $50 feet long and drift No. BIO has advanced 275 feet Both these drifts are in an excellent grade of clean chalcocite ore. Raise No. has been put up 12S feet. Raise No. 9 measures 25 feet. Both raises are in ore of good commercial grade.
 The driving of drifts Nos. 311 and 313 has been discontinued temporarily and the crews formerly at work in these drifts have been transferred to drifts Nos. 30S and BIO, where new drifts north and south have been re- gently begun. One of these drifts is being driven south from the face of drift No. 30S, while the other is being advanced nOrthward from the face of drift No. BIO. The driving of these two new drifts is in accordance with the management s plan of following the rectangular, coordinate system in the development of the mine.
