humor has tagged not a whit. All
during the workout he grinned, even
when few blows found their way past
his guard. His particular delight was
in referring TO the mock trial of last
night and this morning, as well as the
election that was held for judge. When
each man came before him he would re-
mark: tWho you voting for, me or
Sutton? The Sutton men were mauled
and each time q blow landed, Johnny
Lotus, who did considerable work in
Sutton's campaign, would shout, There
goes another vote"

The champion put in an appearance
this morning later than usual and
dressed in his regular clothes. He de-
cided to rest, although there was some
talk of his giving a short sprint. For
several hours he lounged about on the
front porch OF Kicks with his train

ress among Al Kaufman, Sig Hart and
others OF the crew, but every one
finally gathered around the champ and
there was much merriment while last
nights mock trial was discussed To
make sport the camp favored a move
to depose Judge Johnson and elect
Frank Sutton in his place The con-
speeches were made all morning and
there was a continual buying and SELL
ing of votes. 1t was planned that if
sutton won, Sig Hart was to be shown
good time" In view OF this fact,
Sig electioneered strenuously for the

Autos and rigs stopped just outside the
fence. There was great uproar, and
every one passing the resort gazed in

place to an animated game of craps.
Then came lunch.
In the early afternoon before the
workout Johnson created no end OF
fun by holding another session of court
for the purpose OF electing the new
judge. He took q seat behind a big
roulette table and pounded vocifer-
ously for order.
Gentlemen he said with gravity.

purpose of electing new judge (close

and best legal mentality, absolutely of
honor"
The speech was too much for the as

LOTUS and Furey a dust raising rough

out. The election was started by Sc

finally the law breakers were admitted.

tie. Three cheers were given for the
big smoke and then 1t was suggested
that Hart be arrested for contempt of
court. Without waiting for a verdict
Furey and Lotus and the rest captured
Hart and held him over a stool while
a vigorous chastisement was inflicted.
At this juncture the mail arrived and
court was adjourned until after dinner

camp that the champion will continue
his workouts until Saturday, possibly
doing bit of road work on Sunday. At
best the schedule is Indefinite for the

from day to day according to the way
he feels He runs his work absolutely
to suit himself, although he is always
open to good suggestions If they ap-
peal to him. There is but little question
that he will spend one afternoon before
the conclusion of his work in strenuous
milling. 1t is thought that he will go
about double the usual number of
rounds.
