JEFFR|ES NEVER WILL GET BACK
IN Old CONDITION, SAYS CANS

years of rest, and at present the re-
tired champion Is simply a mass of
soft flesh that is in such a condition
that it will be impossible for him to
get back to the old days. Jen will
train hard, but nature has had such an
easy time that it will not respond
sufficiently to the treatment, and when
he faces Johnson he will be far from
the Jeffries of old.
Very few realize the meaning of
those words, He will come back Take
all the old champions. In their good
days 1t seemed impossible that any one
would ever beat them. History shows
that the day arrives when the quick
ness of the eye is gone the old speed
is lacking, and the wallop that used
to scare all rivals has lost its hitting
power When this happens and a new
champion appears on the stage, the
wiseacres make the old remark that
the former title holder is all in. This
applies to jeff.
JEFF is acknowledged to be a grand
specimen of a man and without doubt
| the greatest heavyweight that ever
| claimed into ring He was, but now
he is not. The old saying, Youth must
/, be served goes for Jeff. Despite the
| fact that he is a young man, he has
! lived longer, than his years.
This doesn't mean that jeff has
dissipated his strength away. But all
| his friends know that the big fellow
is an inveterate cigarette smoker and
the man who fills his lungs with that
poison for years can hardly expect to
go up in the mountains for a few
| weeks and wear off the bad effects OF
nicotine. This makes it look to me as
| though his wind would be bad. and
J that. for man of his size, would be
handicap that would mean disaster"

TWO OPPONENTS
FOR CHAMPION
Pittsburg "Unknowns" to
Get Theirs.

3 Pittsburg, jan 3.-Instead of hav-
ing but one unknown to meet in the
all-comers class here on Tuesday
night, Champion Jack Johnson. the big
black heavyweight, will have two men
with nerve enough to tackle him. Both
are 'unknowns," and while but little
is known of the ability of one of them.
the friends of the other say that he
has been working out for several
weeks and will make the big fellow
extend himself before the three rounds
are over.
One Of the unknownss secured as an
ex-amateur athlete, said to be an ex-
amateur champion of this city and who
at one time sho wedcosnderbal "a
al one time showed considerable class.
He has been out of the game for a
couple of years, but has been prepar-
ing for this event The identity of the
"unknowns" will be made tomorrow,
when they will be put through a
thorough examination to conform with
the new police regulation

New York, Jan. 3.-Edward
Payson Weston, the veteran pc
destrian, announced yesterday that
he will make one more trans-con-

Weston will start from Los An
geles at 4 o'clock the afternoon Of
Feb. / and will be due in New
York on May %. His hike from
New York to San Francisco early
last summer took him los days,
but on that journey he encounter
ed long series of storms and un-
usually hot weather. If conditions
are reasonably favorable this
spring he is sure that he can cross
the United States within 100 days.

SYNDICATE BALL" IS SEEN IN
TAFT'S PLAN TO BUY PH|LL|ES

New York, Jan. 3.-Brother Charles
H. Taft has purchased the Philadel-
phial grounds of the National league
present for his wife. He already
owns a large interest in the Chicago
team of the same league. On Friday
Brother Charles announced he was
thinking" of buying the Philadelphia
National league club as we'll. Brother
Charles would do we'll to have an
other think"
After all, 1t is the gentlemen on the
bleachers who make a baseball club
good investment, and the bleacherites
are unalterably and irrevocably oppos-
ed to syndicate baseball, and it doesn't
make any difference to them who
wants to own shares in two clubs.
Big Bill himself couldn't get away with
it,
The other day Charlie Murphy an
nounced that Mr.. Taft owned only 25
per cent of the shares in the Chicago
National club 1t has previously been
stated that Mr.. Taft owns the con-
trolling interest in that club. 1t doesn't
make any great amount of difference
how much stock Charles owns in the
Chicago club, when he admits this
owners hip OF stock and prepares to buy
another club.
| He undoubtedly regards a ball club
as a good investment, the fans will
not look at it in the same light They
| will say, Syndicate baseball.' and
| open the door to all sorts of ugly ru-
mors.
| Sporting men the world over do not
| like to see the dollar mark too closely
allied with the sports in which they
are interested This was clearly
shown by the storm of criticism which
rained down on Richard and Gleason
when they met in private session to
close the deal concerning the Jeffries-
| Johnson fi~ht.
TT is all a frameup for the money
was the howl which went up to heav-
en-. probably unjustly, but it will bs
| some time before the secret session
| will be forgotten. and the drawing
power of the fight will greatly suffei
in some degree because the men met IL
secret to talk money rather than fight
The dollar mark has never been tn
controlling sign in baseball. The mel
who support the game like to believ
that the home club Will fight just a
hard at the tail end of the procession
as at the head. They have a firm be
lief that baseball, at least, is on tn
J level, and for this reason the nationa
game counts among it's devotees me
or a prize fight. because they believ
that in these spots the money en-
sometimes overshadows the recent de
sire to win If possible.

Philadelphia who will not believe that
one man has a right to own interests
In two clubs in the same league Sup
pose Brother Charles P. bought the
Philadelphia club and at the end of the
season the cubs should be GU tin front
fighting hard for the flag and the Phil
lies should be we'll back in the second
division Suppose that the pennant de-
pended on three or four game series
between the cubs and Phillies, and sup
pose. for the sage of argument, that
the Cubs should win these games in
hollow style. Now, those games
might have been contested honestly by
both clubs, but could you make old
Mr.. Fifty Cent Customer believe it!
Not in seven million years!
Syndicate ball, That's what they
would say.
The best interests of the national
game demand that no man shall own
more than one club in the same league
The Philadelphia clug might be a good
investment for Charles P. Taft If he
owned no other baseball stock Witt
his Chicago interest in mind, there is
every reason to believe that it would
be a very poor investment.

New York. Jan. "a week ago a
flash came to this country informing
us that Bob Fitzsimmons, one of the
craftiest and best fighters that ever
stepped into a ring, went down to de-
feat and the epitaph was he could
not come back" said Joe Cans, for
mer lightweight champion, today.
This same expression will be written
about James ]. Jeffries on the night of
July A. after his battle with Jack
johnson for. the championship of the
world is over. For, no matter how
highly they sound the praises of JEFF
now, when he clashes with Johnson he
will meet his conqueror. 1t will be a
case of science against brute strength
and in this affair the science of John
son will come out on top.
II want to say that 1 am not favor
