disappointment among racegoers.

are as follows:

Gillian 11S, Restigouche 119, Dalmatian
119, Prince Ahmed ia, Alfred Noble

Especial to The Herald.l

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1O.-There is
a strong possibility that the 25-round
fight between Billy Papke and Joe
Thomas, scheduled to take place next
Saturday afternoon at Coffroth's
Colma arena, will have to be trans
ferred 70 San Francisco and take place
the following week. In such an event
the date will be decided upon later by
the principals and the bout will be re-
duced to a 20-round affair. District
Attorney Joseph Bullock of San Mateo
county is out with a statement that
his previous announcement that no
more fighting will be allowed in San
Mateo county "holds good for this
coming Saturday" Coffroth will hold
a conference with the district attorney
today to ascertain just what he pro-
poses to do and in the event that the
district attorney stands to his guns
there will be no fight. Inasmuch as
Coffroth has a fight permit for San
Francisco which he has not used he
can make the transfer without loss.

JOHNSON WEIGHS IN AT 22o
POUNDS AFTER ROAD WORK

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1O.-Declar-
ing that his first day ON the road did
not stiffen up his muscles in the least
Jack johnson was out on the road
again this morning for another twelve
mile jaunt II anything, he took his
camp followers over the roads in
Golden Gate park at a faster clip than
on the previous day and he felt so good
on his return that he tossed the med
icine ball around and played a little
baseball before he took his rundown.
Johnsons trainers declare themselves
as highly pleased with the condition of
the fighter and say that the easy way
he has fallen into the preliminary
training work is the best proof of
Johnson's condition at the outset.
The most Important phase of the day
at JohnsonS camp was the Weighing
of the colored fighter. Jack has not
been on the scales since he arrived in
California and there was surprise ON
his part, as well as his trainers. when
the beam tilted at 300 pounds.
Il must have been way off in my
calculations" declared Johnson. who
had previously estimated that he would
strip at 226. But | guess the two
days on the road have taken off some
of the weight. | want to tell you now
that the weight is not bothering me.
All | want is to be right for this fight
may have he is welcome to. He will
need that much of a handicap when
he gets into the ring"
johnson was accompanied on the road
in the morning by five of the men
in his camp, including Sig Hart, Tom
Little. George Cotton, Barney Furey
and Marty Cutler. The same course
was taken as on the first day and as
an early starte was made, Johnson was
over with his rubbing down before 10
O'clock
81 have been with johnson great
deal" said Sig Hart. "and | never saw
him in better shape. He has been
taking good long runs. and but for the
rest of. us he would have stayed out
longer. People don't need to worry
about Johnson's condition"
Little spent the afternoon In San
Francisco, discussing with attorneys
suit that Sam Fitzpatrick has brought
against Johnson for past services, but
Johnson stuck c,ose to his quarters.
Doc Cornell, trainer for the Portland
baseball team arrived today from the
north and announced that he would

Halley's comet or some other freak
ish thing put the kibosh onto the press
boys yesterday when they lined UP at
Chutes park for the annual baseball
game with the plugugly prize fighters.
The score stood 10 to . in favor of
the fighters at the end of the eighth
inning, when everybody concerned, in
cluding the spectators, were so tired
and thoroughly exhausted that the
game was stopped by mutual consent
This is the first defeat the press team
has sustained in eight years, and it
does not count, as the fighters slipped
i'm a professional battery on US and the
pro-twirler was curving them over la
Knapp or Cy Young all the time. The
classy batters on the press team
lammed him good and hard at times,
but were unfortunate in not being able
to get enough hits or runs to hold onto
the long end of the score. Then, Tom
McCarey, Hen Berry and Judge Parker
were of the opinion that it was a joke
game, and perpetrated several alleged
Jokes in the form of decisions on balls
and strikes and base-running stunts.
Neither of these jumps will be recon-
mended to the major leagues for pro-
motion on the showing they made yes

the press team left the grounds with
broken thumb, a splintered forefinger
on the same hand and two other
strained fingers, so that the left hand
looked like a crazy quilt creation in

the game. other players on the press
club lineup were equally maltreated,
and running a typewriter last night
was so painful that further comment

garded herewith as wholly unnecessary.

Baseball fans are hereby notified
that the series between the Angels and

is to be a hard fought series, if there

even quadrupled in population
within q time so short that it
seems but yesterday, and yet there
are a dozen counties west of the
river that are virtually empires,
each exceeding tho combined area
of the FIVE pioneer principalities
grouped down near the confluence
of the Sioux and the land-eating
Missouri.
South Dakota is q great state.
1t has done wonderfully we'll with
out an immigration bureau, though
it might have done more with one

The State Legislature

1t will be the duty of the legis-
lature which convenes within few
days to take up and consider a re-
apportionment bill. This is re-
quired, we understand, at the ses-
sions following the taking of the
census, and the further rea-
son of the great growth in popula-
tion in the northern and western
sections of the state, with a small
decrease in some counties in the
southeastern part of the state,
make it even more imperative that
a reapportionment be made.
Stanley county, an empire in
size, ranks as the sixth in popula-
tion among the counties of the
state. Minnehaha, Brown, Law
renee, Sphinx and Beadle counties
are the only ones having q greater
population than Stanley has, and
under the new deal it is probable
that the first three named are the
only ones that will have a larger
number of representatives in the
state legislature than we. 1t is
most certain that the county is en-
titled to and will have something
more than one representative and
half senator, the senatorial dis
trict in which we are now located
also including Lyman county.
In obtaining just recognition in
the new apportionment bill, we
are certain that Senator Bartine
and Representative Millett will see
that we will have proper reeogni-
ton.

The calling of a constitutional con-
vention is not matter that can be

one or any clique; nor can it be

An Amusing Possibility

The Kadoka Press absorbed the
Kadoka Reporter, and Bro. Nellor
gave the Press volume and num-
ber equal to the combined volumes
and numbers of the two papers.
The Cottonwood Republican ab-
sorbed the Cottonwood Register
and followed Bro. Nsllor's lead.
This gives the Press and Rspubli-
can volume VIII, while actually
in their fourth volume.
Now this mathematical way of
growing old is q harmless little af-
fectation which Is not worthy of
notice. But should il become gen
eral there may bs surprising re-
suits. Tor instance, suppose the
consolidation among the papers of
the Sem syndicate continues until
they are finally all merged into one.
The age rule of the Press and Re-
publican would bring the volume
Of this consolidated sheet up into
the hundreds making it older than
the paper established by Benjamin
Franklin.-Quinn Courant.
