CAREER OF JEFFRIEs
Undefeated Champion Stands Forth
u as Most Formidable Exponent
Ring Game Has Ever
Had.

There is unusual interest in Keokuk
over the Fourth of July fistic encoun-
ter between Jeffries and Johnson,
and especially is the interest keen
among the colored people, of whom
Keokuk has a goodly number.
Never has such a championship
battle been arranged and well known
writers predict only the most gruell-
ing contest. They say the battle will
not be short one, for the history of
both ring generals is that of caution
during the early periods Of their past
bouts. 1t is believed that the fight
will sift down to struggle in which
the sturdiest of the two will win. 1t
lis pointed out that Jeffries is super
Tor, but others say Johnson's clever
ness will defeat the undefeated champ
ion.
Between today and Monday interest
will be stimulated in the coming
event, which may be the last prize
fight of its kind staged in this coun-
try. A comparison OF the fighters and
an exhaustive history is given in the
following paragraphs:

Jack Johnson's Ambition.

Eight years ago, when Johnson be-
gan to loom on the pugilistic horizon,
he urged his managers to make every
effort to arrange for fight with JEFF
fries. "Jeffries can't touch me- was
his boast even in those days, and he
fretted continually over the fact that
until he acquired a reputation, his
prospects for q championship battle
were but as gauzy at the tail of Hal
ley's comet. He says he believed then
as confidently in his ability to achieve
the title as he did six years later
when at last his opportunity to battle
for the supreme prize was realized
1T was not my fights themselves,
but my fight to get those fights that
proved the hardest part of the strug-
GLE" Johnson told in recounting
his difficulties In reaching the
pinnacle of his ambition TT
was my color. They told me to
get rep; but how was to get a
rep without meeting fighters Of
class? But | made them fight me. I
just kept plugging along swapping up
what chances to fight could grab, I'M
til by and by the top-notchers saw that
sooner or later they'd have to take me
on. AS soon as I had shown what
could do, the fight public-most of the
fans, anyway took sides with me, and
that helped a whole lot"
Johnson asserts that he has never
been apprehensive of possible defeat
in any contest he has engaged IN
None of them he declares, had any
terrors for him
