FINE BIKE HOLIDAY PROGRAM FOR SUNDAY

Kramer and Fogler will be on scratch
in the handicap, while the other stars
will be given liberal allowances to make
the rae fast. A dollar to the leader of
every lap will be given to insure a fast
race. The other race for the money
chasers will be a two-mile invitation,
and as all of the other races of this
kin have been fought out to a finish,
Sundays race should be no exception.
Schiller, the Frisco boy, who is lead
ing for the amateur title, will be on
scratch in the three-mile handicap.
with Passenger, Wright and Magin.
This a should be a hummer, for
should Passenger and Schiller qualify.
as 1t is expected. a great race should
result, even If it is between these boys.
There is a little grudge to settle be-
tween them. Magin and Mccarthy, the
handicap kings, should make it inter
esting for the other boys, and Willie
Coburn, the local youngster. should be
another rider to be in at the finish.
Another amateur race that should be
a hot one is the half-mile open, in
which Passenger, Schiller. Magin,
Wright and Mccarthy are entered.

Match.
~ HERE is a corking holiday card
of races arranged for Sunday

OF races arranged for Sunday
afternoons meet at the Velo-
drome track, for no less than six
events are down to be decided, includ-
ing an Australian pursuit match and
race for professionals, which will bring
two of the best ~pluggers in the game
together. Joe Fogler, the Brooklyn
speedy boy and plugger, and ALI. Gou-
lette, who demonstrated his ability as a
rider at this style of racing last Sun
day, when he defeated National Cham
pion Frank l.. Kramer in the most
gruelling event of it's kind ever held in
this city, are the boys. Besides the
pursuit race there is a national cham
pionship event for the money-chasers
at two miles, a three-mile handicap
and a two-mile invitation, while the
simon-pures will show their ability in a
open race at a half-mile and a three
mile handicap.
The Australian pursuit race is caus-
ing considerable interest among the
bike followers and many believe that
the race will even be more interesting
than the Goulette-K Kramer race. Fog
ler's ability as a plugger is well
known. Joe is in good form just now
and should give the little foreigner one
Of the greatest battles of his career.
The titular event Is one of the fea-
ture events of the meet. Frank Kra-
mer feels that he will win the race, as
it is at one mile, n of his favorite
distances. Percy Lawrence, John Be-
dell, Menus Bedell, Floyd Krebs,
Charley Stein, Fred Hill, Eddie Rup-
precht. Paddy O'Sullivan Hehir. Eddie
Root. Norman Anderson. Joe Fogler,
Jumbo Wells. AL. Halstead and Fred
West are keen upon winning the event.
The race should be a corier and sone
great racing should be witnessed in
the heats, semi-lrals and final heat.

the second round the blood spurted
from Cotton's lips from one of Jacks
left jabs. A little later the champion
ducked a swing and the sparring part
ner sprawled on the floor from the
force of his own blow. They went
four rounds before Johnson signaled
the end of the show.
Governor Dickerson again visited the
Johnson camp. He seemed fascinated
by the cleverness of the negro and
watched every move with admiration.
Out at Camp Jeffries the day passed
in idleness. Jeffries went fishing with
Jack Wooley in the morning.
The card game occupied Jeffries's az
ternoon. He is fond of the game and
winning makes him mighty happy. He
won yesterday, and was overlooking
with good humor in consequence.
Sam Berger today will endeavor to
arrange with Tom Flanagan to toss for
corners on Sunday.
The choice Is most important, as the
eyes OF one of the fighters will be sub
jected to the glare of the sun between
rounds.
Visitors assumed the proportions of
an invasion yesterday. During the
evening hours the nerve entr of the
fight talk, Tex Richards hotel, present
ed the busiest scene Reno has wit
messed In many years. Reno Is eagerly
welcoming the visitors, and the clubs
and civic organizations are outdoing
each other in hospitality. The Nevada
Editorial Association has planned a
reception to the host Of newspaper
writers for Saturday night.
Betting Money Scarce.
Although the fight is but three days
off. the local betting continues light.
Tom Corbett, official betting commits
sioner, is now on the ground. Although
he has rented quarters in one of the
largest gambling halls, and has placard-
ed the walls with haring signs, stating
he is prepared to transact business,
there was little beside those mural
decorations to see.
Corbett, however, does lot seem to be
worried over the dearth of wagers. He
believes a great deal of money is held
i'm reserve, and will come out before
the gong strikes for the first round.
An independent pool room, close to
the commissioners headquarters, Is
showing a little more activity. Big
bets were placed by members OF the
johnson camp today. Wagers of 81, 800
to $4,000 that Johnson would win and
$500 at even money that Jeffries would
not put the quietus on the champion
in IS rounds were placed. A a Fran
cisco business man is reported to have
made a bet of $1,000 to $500 on Jeffries.

SHORT TALKS ON CURRENT SPORTS

~ dark Monday night we will all
n know the champion heavyweight
of the world. Maybe Jim
Jeffries will uphold the honor of the
white race and maybe Jack Johnson
will retain the honors won from
Tommy Burns. That is the dope
most fight fam are working on. There
is a point, however. that few dilate on
because 1t seems out of the question
to them, and that is the possibility of a
forty-five round unfinished fight. Such
a battle is not out of the pale of i'm
possibility. If Jeffries is in the condi-
ton he is said to be, and johnson is as
good as he promises, it wouldn't be a
strange thing to see the battle go that
far. Very few seem to think that
way about 1t, feeling that if jeff be
right he'll beat johnson early, and if
not johnson will beat him late in the
fight. There's the guessing; for our
part, It's hard to pick.

Billy Leary and Kid Wilson have
been rematched to fight before the Mu-
nicipal A. C. in the star bout of the
card arranged for July IL. The pair
signed articles today and Leary pre-
dicted that there would be a different
termination to the bout than was the
case on their previous meeting. Percy
Woodruff, manager of Wilson, declared
that he would have his man make 142

viii be the first time hat hurting has
been introduced in the district, and the
association is making the move in the
hope that the game will flourish. Eight

American cities.
There is a plan on foot to have either
the Vendome or the Municipal A. c.

the field to one club. The club that
closes will be lucky, for it's hard to sec

WATER CASE
LITIGATION
JUDGE LEWIS GIVES OPINION
IN CASE OF IRRIGATION
COMPANY AGAINST THE
SUGAR FACTORY
States That Supply Of Water Takea
From Ditch Same as Though 1t
Were Taken from Reservoir
and the Great Western
Claim Lost

Denver, April 5.-If corporation
is entitled to water from reservoir.
and gets the water instead from
ditch that leads into the reservoir.
the fact is legally the same as II the
water had been taken direct from
the reservoir. This truism Is the
basis of an opinion handed down by
the supreme court yesterday in favor
of the Greeley & Loveland Irriga-
ton & Land company against the
Great Western Sugar company. A
large number of farmers in the Gree
lev district will benefit by the dec1-
sion.
The sugar company had a con
tract with the irrigation company
providing that the sugar factory
should be supplied with continu-
Gus stream of water running four
cubic feet per second. This water
was to come from the Barnes ditch.
which is the intake of the Barnes
Ditch reservoir. The contract also
provided that if there were not
water enough in the ditch to supply
the stream stipulated, then the fac
tory might make up the difference
by tapping the reservoir itself-ex-
cepting that the factory should not
| at any time take more than one
twenty-fifth OF the water in the res
ervoir.
Under this contract the sugar
company claimed to be entitled to
water from the reservoir as well as
from the ditch. But the court held
that water in the ditch, since it was
on the way to the reservoir, was leg
ally already part of the reservoir
an dthat in taking one-twenty-fifth
of the water from the reservoir the
water taken fro mthe ditch must be
reckoned with. In other words, to
estimate the amount of water legal,
CONTAINED. by the. reseEyoir, the cal
cuiation should be based on thu
amount of water that would be il
the reservoir if none had been taken
from the ditch-since the court
holds the ditch to be legally part
, of the reservoir

Forty years ago today N. C. Meeker
and Robert I. Cameron, two of the To-

Meeker was the agricultural editor on
the New York Tribune, the paper of
Horace Greeley, the country's nestor of

1t is in consequence of this advent of

the most worthy of remembrance in the
history of the colony.
Two weeks from next Friday the GER
