Delaney's Plan.

Delaney preached a suggestion to
Promoter Tex Richard yesterday that
finds favor with the fans" His pro-
posal Is to invite Jem Mace, the one
time champion of England, and Bill
Clark, another veteran pugilist, now
living in st. Louis, to box three one
minute rounds as a curtain-raiser to
the big Fourth of July contest. De-
laney says. he is willing to act as
referee for the old-timers, and he
would revive an historic custom by
having Mace and Clark shy casters
into the ring and affix their colors to
their respective posts as pugilists
were wont to do in the "palmy days"
Richard welcomed Delaney's plan,
and will try to carry it out.
Following his conference with John
son, Delaney took occasion to deny
report from the coast that he had
stated Jeffries could not get in shape
for the coming fight.

Delaney declared. at is no secret
that !effries and myself are not on
the most cordial terms, but I'm not
knocking him. In the name of all
that's reasonable, why shouldn't JEFF

only 35 and he has been a mountain

According to Richard, the work of
constructing the big arena here will

latest estimate is that nearly a mill

The Evils Of Hypnotlsm.

A striking proof Of the absolute ir-
responsibility Of the mesmerized sub.
5ect occurred at demonstration I
gave before the New York Medico-
Legal society. Though this was long
ago. I never think of it without a
sense Of fear for what might have
happened and thankfulness for the
fortunate issue. Having placed one
subject in a sound sleep on a chair,
told another subject that this sleeping
man was his enemy and had injured
him, at the same time giving him q
pasteboard dagger. think that those
who saw the subsequent events did
not soon forget the stealthy, cat-like
manner with which the second sub
5ect stole behind his sleeping victim
and stabbed him in the back. Then,
to my surprise, he grasped the vic"
tim by the throat and threw him to
the floor apparently trying to choke
him to death. This movement was SO
sudden. unexpected and violent that 1t

that is not sanctioned by the Marquis
of Queensbury scheme of ring tactics.
Aside from this diversion there was
little doing at Johnson's camp. The
champion is rapidly rounding into
condition and he feels 1t is not neces-
sary to rush his training work as he
has plenty of time to put on the fin
ishing touches.
1t now seems likely that Billy De-
laney will not take over the direc-
ton of Johnson5s training until the
latter part of the week.
A report emanated from Johnson's
quarters last night that disgruntled
at Corbett's remarks concerning his
courage the negro champion would
challenge Corbett to meet him in a
boxing match at any time prior to the
date of his fight, the proceeds of the
exhibition to be devoted to charity.
Promoters Richard and Gleason are
not expected to enthuse over the
rumored plan for such meeting.

KAUFMAN BOXES JACK.
coIored Fighter Has Spirited Bout
With the Clever Heavyweight.
San Francisco, June 10.-Jack John
son is in rare good humor now that he
has a sparring partner worthy of his
prowess with the gloves. AL kaufman
gave Johnson the fastest and hardest
go yesterday the negro has had since
he began preparing for the big fight.
From the outset Kaufman pressed
Johnson closely, going after the negro
in such a business-like manner that
the champion found it necessary to un-
timber much of his skill to Withstand
Kaufman's onslaughts. Johnson was
chiefly on the defensive throughout
(probably according to schedule), and
his clever blocking won the plaudits
of the large crowd that witnessed the
mill.
Kaufman's work impressed Johnson
so favorably that he predicted Sam
Langford's defeat in Kaufman's ap-
preaching battle with the Boston ne
gro. Johnson is bitterly hostile to his
fellow black, who is pining for a
chance to try to wrest from Johnson
the heavyweight title, and it is re-
ported that he intends to coach Kauf-
man thoroughly with an eye single to
overthrowing Langford. Following
yesterdays workout, Johnson announ-
ced that he would place bet of $4,000
on Kaufman to beat the Bostonian.
Work on the arena for the fighters
is progressing rapidly.

DELANEY DECIDES TO HANDLE
JACK.
Veteran Manager Who Brought Out
Jeffries VIII Coach Negro Fighter.

Veteran Manager Who Brought Out
Jeffries VIII Coach Negro Fighter.
San Francisco, May 25.--There is
joy in the Johnson camp as a result
of the announcement that Billy De-
laney, veteran maker of heavyweight
champions, is to coach the negro for
his fight with Jeffries. Johnson him
self is highly elated. He figures that
Delaney is the best man in the bust
ness to prepare him for the crucial
battle of his career. This belief Is
based on the fact that not only can
Delaney give him the fruits of forty
years of ring experience, but that the
veteran who developed Jeffries knows
more about the retired champion than
anybody else and will be able to give
Johnson many priceless pointers
about Jeffries' style of fighting.
The advent of Tom Flanagan into
the johnson camp is likewise mat
ter of great satisfaction to the negro's
supporters. Flanagan, who trained
many long-distance runners, includ-
ing Longboat, the Indian, will have
supervision over Johnson's road work,
which the fighter regards as one of
the most essential features of his
training.

DENYING OUR MOODS
eoMETHlNG THAT EVEN THE
MOST HONEST VILE 90.
With the Return Of Sanity Comes q
Doubt Of Ones Having Been
Possessed Of Any Extrem-
Ity Of Sensation.

When a mood has gone the most
honest Of US deny that we ever har.
bored 1t. Sanity has returned to us,
and nothing is as improbable as our
ever having admired a certain type,
been angry at a particular person, or
gone through any other extremity of
sensation. We begin by not liking the
idea OF our late mood, and after a
weeks discomfort with the memory
we arrive at soothing disbelief of the
sensations ever having existed in us.
Blandly we deny a passed madness,
and there is so much to be said for
our stand. A prisoner in the dock In
all likelihood feels in much the same
way. He no longer is in a rage with
the person he murdered, which makes
him doubt strongly whether he com.
mitted the murder at all; so that, ow-
Ing to this indecision and his suspi
cion that he is innocent, he denies all
knowledge Of the crime. It is only
when he has heard suffi cient evidence
to connect his present calm self with
the emotional performer in the dis.
cussed incident that he breaks down
and confesses his guilt. 1t Is in all
probability the first time that he has
himself believed 1t.
On milder and less tragic scale we
act in much the same way regarding
our own emotional excursions. 1t Is SO
easy to imagine how a divorced wom-
an, who has married the second time
with harmonious results, can look at
her first husband and say: II realize
that to other people there is a certain
Justice in this mans claim that he
was once my husband, but as for me,
! can give no weight to his clearly
ridiculous statement for the simple
fact that 1t does not stand to reason.
Would !, ask you, ever have married
such a man? Is 1t likely that l. with
the discrimination which led me to
choose my present husband, would
ever have had so much as a passing
fancy for this improbable, this posi-
lively fictitious looking person? You
can see for yourself that the facts dis
prove his absurd statements. He may
appear to be my former husband, but
/. with my knowledge of myself and
my distinct recollection Of the past,
know him for a delusion on the part
OF the world in general, a permissible
mistake, I admit, but nevertheless q
mere mirage. and nothing more"

New York, June salvation is still
too dangerous an operation to receive
recognition at the hands of the insul
ance men. Representatives of both
life and accident companies here have
issued statements in response to in
quiries declaring that in no circu
stances will they accept aerial navi-
gators as risks.
Although there has been compare

says a statement from an official of
one of the big life insurance compan-
les. Such men come under the head
of aeronauts and aeronautic inventors,
and are absolutely barred from par
ticipation in the benefits of life insur-
ance. We would not insure them for
any premium"
Accident insurance companies took
practically the same attitude. An Of
ficer of the North American Accident
Insurance company puts it this way
Men following such dangerous pur-
suits cannot possibly get accident in

far less risky who cannot get insur-
ance against accident"

The cause Of the clash is unknown,

Little was covering first base when
