TROUPE ARRIVES EARLY.

The Jeffries-GOtch troupe, accom-
panied by Promoter Jack Gleason,
arrived in town at 1880 o'clock this
morning from North Yakima, sur
prising the bugs" who had in
tended gathering at the depot to
welcome the Indicated One. The
party left North Yakima at 1873

Immediately upon arriving the
party was taken in charge by Harry
Green, one of Jeff's staunchest
friends, and will be taken care of
by the local man during their stay
here. A breakfast at the Club cafe
followed the arrival of the troupe,
while auto rides and an informal
reception at the Howard street cafe
will account for the remainder Of
the day.

year ago. unless appearances
count for naught. Jeff was not far
wrong when he stated several days
ago that all he really needed was a
little work to round him into form.
He has lost that fairness that was
apparent a year ago, and unless the
writer is badly mistaken, Jeff will
surprise the fight bugs when he
cavorts about IN his sketch at the
Auditorium this evening, when he
punches the bag, skips rope, losses
the medicine ball and goes three
fast and furious rounds with Sam
Berger.

For his mamma won't eat bacon,
And from his heart there comes a

For she'll have to dine on liver
On the fourth day of July.
With solar punch James Jeffries
Sends Johnson to the floor,
At the count Of nine he rises,
His body smeared with gore;
TO save himself he clinChes,
With defeat written in his eye,
For Jeff called him to a finish

The real champion of the world,
With a mighty jolt upon the jaw,
Clear through the ropes he's

Wen take off our hats to Jeffries,
The man of Drawn and muscle,
He redeemed the belt for the white

And he made the black. man hustle.
He helped us out against his viii,

But not of a colored dye;
For when Jeffries meets Johnson
You can certainly rely
That therell be something doing
On the fourth day of July.
He'll cover himself with glory,
With honor and with fame;
His deeds will outline the
monument
That will be erected to his name.
He'll step into the ring with
confidence,
Intending to do or die;
He'll break the ribs of Johnson
On the fourth day of July.
But Jack says he'll take home the
To his many and his wife,
If he does he'll fight the hardest
That he has fought in all his life;
For he will have to side step
Or he'll get one in the eye,
And his name it will be Dennis

He'll have to have his rabbits foot
And do some stalling too;
Hen know that he's been fighting
If he happens to pull through

For squarer man than Jeffries

He'll smash that nose of Johnson s,

And bring honor to the white race
On the fourth day of July
He'll send wollops to that colored

He'll drive him to his corner,
Yes, he'll drive him through the

But Jack he tlukes a lucky punch,
Which brightens up his hopes,
But Jeff comes with an uppercut
That drives him through the ropes.
Two to one they yell on 1efiries.
For the handwriting In the sky
Says Jack Johnson is defeated
On the fourth day OF July,
For Jack has been four-flushing

For Jack will lose his money,

One of the most important moves
in the Jeffries-J johnson fight will be
the selection of a referee.
There are many men who think
they could fill this job. but I know
from my experience that when it
comes to naming the third man in
the ring there won't be more than
five or six considered. Umpring a
baseball game is hard work-ref-
erecting championship fight is 10
times harder. 1t takes man with
nerve, excellent Judgment and a
quick eye.
