JOHNSON STANDS ALONE.

Ring followers agree that there is now no man in the game up to Johnson's standard. Little attention is paid to sam Langford's challenge. and the black champion himself re- gards it as a joke.
 Estimates of the attendance at the fight and the receipts are mere guesses, but the gate receipts must have been between $230.OO0 and $27O, ,OOO Between 1S,OOO and 2O.0OO people saw the fight.
 In all the fight talk. one thing stands out sharply: There is no more mention of Johnsons yellow streak" Experts at the ringside agree in say ing that not once did he give any indication of fear.
 His statement given out last night had been well thought out. but his remarks as he stepped back to his corner after Jeffries was battered down were spontaneous and show his state of mind when the heat of battle was upon him:
 "Jeffries never could hit me-" John son said. He never could penetrate my defense. l have always known this, and he has just found it out. When he crouched, l made him up, and then I pecked him to pieces. 1 used everything there is in pugiIism on Jeff, and he couldn't stand the strain"
 Jeffries people had little to say. They were too sorely hurt and disap- pointed. Tt was simply the old story of the pitcher at the we'll once too often." said Jim Corbett. As soon ls Jeffries had boxed two rounds yes terday I knew he had nothing. It was only his courage and confidence that kept him there so long"
 True to his character. the van luished fighter remained hidden to- day from the gaze of the chance wis tors A few of his old friends, still faithful in the hour of defeat, re- nained around him, but interest in him has gone in the main.

ENGINEERS ERROR /
 WAS ALMOST FATAL
He Emptied Water Into Reservoir of
 Gasoline Launch.

Avalon, Catalina Island, Calif., July 5.-An amateur engineers mistake in pouring all the drinking water into the gasoline tank came near costing the lives of a launch party. who were rescued today off Whites Landing. The members of the party, Mir. and Mrs. c. M. Warren and MT. and Mrs. J. M. Rush, all of Redondo, were ex- hausted after a night and day of battle with heavy seas.
 The fuel tank of the little launch was only partly filled when the launch left Redondo yesterday for the island and half way across the channel the engine stopped. The engineer picked up a flagon, and, taking it for granted that it contained gasoline, emptied it into the reservoir.
 The engine refused to run on gaso- line favored with water. and the party could not drink the fluid when 1t was pumped from the tank. Every body had to work all night to keep the little vessel afloat.

FREEDMAN TELLS HOW II ALL HAPPENED
Jack Johnson Was Only Doubling
 Back on Ancient History.

Harry Friedman says the cleaning of Jim Jeffries by Jack Johnson, and incidentally the cleaning of most of the white sports by the colored back CTS of the champion, is a terrible ar raignment of the white race for It's las lack of diligence in searching he Scriptures. He says that any close student of holy writ should have been able to predict the result and those who lost their wads are only suffering the penalties of their waywardness and utter disregard of historical writ
 ngs that might be considered in the light of prophecy in view of the fact that history repeats itself about every so often.
 Turning to the second verse of the eleventh chapter of Exodus. MT. Fried man read: Speak now in the ears of the people and let every man bor- row of his neighbOr and every woman of her neighbor. jewels of silver and jewels of gold
 Then, in the thirty-fifth verse of the twelfth chapter. he read: And the children of Egypt did according to the word of Moses, and they bor- rOwed of the Egyptians. jewels of sil- Ver and of gold and raiment" Then, closing the book. Mir. Friedman added. And then they left Egypt between two days"
 MT. Friedman says it was only to be expected that history would repeat itself The Egyptians. as compared with the Jews. were the black race of that generation, and now the blacks of the twentieth century have turned the tables on the whites From all over the country went up the cry for the Moses, Jack Johnson. the hope of the black race. and when the kith and kin of the Ethiopian had gathered in the gold. silver and jewels of the whites. they cut for the tall timber. leaving the whites to hold the sack.

tician, who assuredly did not owe

The opponents of the candidate

that the young man was much TOO
young to have had enough experience

that he had not been in business long

INDIANS PREPARE FOR CON-
ING OF WHITE MAN
TO RESERVE

Spokane, Wash, May 24-Special.
Indians are rounding up their hors-
es on the Spokane. reservation, north
west of here, preparatory to the COM
ing of the white settlers, who were
successful in Uncle Sans lottery for
homesteads, last August. Among the
horses corralled during the last few
days are many with several brands
unknown on the reserve; also a lot
of mavericks, which will be branded
and taken up by the red men unless
the owners appear before tn close OF
the roundup and claim their stock.
1t is believed the animals strayed
from pastures in Ferry, Stevens and
adjoining counties on the border. The
roundup is a month earlier than usual
and the horses are not in the best
of condition.. However, the bidding
by dealers from Spokane and other
points is brisk and Inis competition
will result in the Indians receiving
good prices for thei$ cayuse. Cap
tain John McA. Webster, Indian agent
on the reserve, says the Indians have
plenty of money, $S50,000 being dis
bursed among them by the Indians
department during the last few days.
