BY JACK JOHNSON
CASTOR Lefait Visited in
Jail by Heavyweight
Champion.

An eighteenyear-o youth giving
the name of CASTOR Lefait. who says
he's French, has forced Jack Johnson.

to the home of Johnson, 3345 Wabash
avenue, and demanded a meeting with
Jack, forcing his request by means of
revolver. according to the mother
and wife of the champion. He was ar
rested some time later by detectives
from the Central Station.
Johnson was in Milwaukee, where he
opened vaudeville engagement Mon
day, and was quickly notified He
made flying trip to Chicago yesterday
to prefer charges against the man. The
champion says Lefait was once his
chauffeur, but was dismissed after he
learned to run his automobile himself.

GOTCH CHAlL LICENCES
HACK FOR A MATCH
WITH $4,000 WAGER
Farmer Burns Posts $500
For Champion to Insure
Bout For Title.

Frank A Gotch yesterday issued a
formal challenge to Hackenschmidt or
any other wrestler for a match for the
championship of the world.
Farmer Burns, who for years has
been the champions right hand man
and trainer, made the formal an
nouncement of the Iowan's desire to
re-enter the graphing game. Burns
posted $500 as a forfeit to bind a match
for a side bet of $40. 900. putting the
money up with an Omaha newspaper.
He stated that he would put up an ad-
ditional $4,000 January IT, and the re-
mainder whenever his opponent wishes.
The Examiner recently printed
Gotchs first announcement of his in
tention to re-enter the wrestling game.
At that time the champion said he was
anxious to wrestle and soon as he
could straighten out a certain matter
which was keeping him out of the ring
he would announce his Willingness to
meet any man in the world.
Gotch Asks Much.
The terms laid down by Burns are
steep ones and it is doubtful if any one
can be found willing to wager $4,000
on his changes against the champion
The conditions under which Gotch will
wrestle are as follows:
The match must be for a side bet OF
$4,000.
The winner is to take the entire
purse and the wrestlers' share of the
| receipts.

MIDOlEWEIGHTS ARE
IN FUSS OVER TITLE
Defeat of Papke Brings New
Claimants; Smith Is the
Most Deserving.

The defeat of Billy Papke by Dave
Smith in Australia Monday has made
pretty muss out of the middleweight
division and we have champions
springing up on all sides. Hugo Kelly
is out with a claim for the title, and if
there is any 158-pounder in this coun-
try who has a right to dispute the
Australians claim to the honors, Kelly
is the man. He has fought Papke four
times, two of the bouts going to
draw, Papke winning one by a knock
out in one round and the other going
to the 'Thunderbolt' on points.
Kelly always has argued that the
time was knocked out he was the vic
tim of a lucky punch. He bases his
claim to the championship chiefly on
his twenty five-round go with Papke
in Los Angeles, which was called a
draw by James ]. Jeffries. the referee
of the affair. This decision always has
been pointed out as the greatest error
in Jeffries' career save his match with
| Johnson.
Think JEFF Made Mistake.
| Kelly chopped Papke up in bad shape
| and appeared to have earned the YER
dict points by big margin, but jeff
could see nothing but draw and call

during the past year, and was going at
nice clip until he broke his hand in
his recent go with Frank Klaus in
Boston. In beating Klaus, he estab-
lished his right to claim superiority
over any other middleweight in this
country. as Klaus, undoubtedly, is one
of the toughest boys in the game.
A fight between Kelly and this new
| falIOxr Smith in Australia should
settle the championship problem so far
as the United States and Australia are
| concerned. A battle between the win
ners of such a bout and Jim Sullivan
the new English champion, should set
| tie definitely the ownership of the title
| which has been more or less in dispute
| since Ketchel's death.
| Claims are being advanced that
Smith did not win the championship by
defeating Papke inasfnuch as the two
fought at a weight, a few pounds over
the recognized middleweight limit OF
l158 pounds. Such an argument is not
a sound one, provided Smith make
the limit. Papke had the best claim tc

FLYNN BEATS
TWIN SULLIVAN

Boston, Dec 2S-The bout here last
night between Porky Flynn of this
city and Jack Twin Sullivan of Cam
bridge ended in a riot. The referee
gave the decision to Flynn. Then
Twin got angry and attempted to slug
the referee, who escaped quietly. Jack
then vented his displeasure at the
award by clouting Flynn. Sam Lang
ford acted as peacemaker. The bout
went the full distance. Flynn earned
the decision, for he had a big advant-
age in at least eight rounds and held
his own in another. Sullivan made
quite a hurricane finish, but did not OBJ
tain any great lead. He started in
fast in the eleventh round, but it was
too late to overcome Flynn's big lead.

With respect to the authority of
great names. it should be remembered
that he alone deserves to have any
weight or influence with posterity, who
has shown himself superior to the par
ticular and predominant error of his
own times; who, like the peak of Ten

before it's beams have reached the hori-
zon of common minds; who, standing,
like Socrates, on the apex of wisdom,
has removed from his eyes all film of
earthly dross, and has foreseen a purer
