FIGHTERS AT RENO.
Jeff'ries and johnson Change Quarters.
The I.andgford-ketchel Ffgh to take
Place on the Morning OF the Big

The Landgford-ketchel Ffgh to take
Place on the Morning Of the Big
Fight.
Jeffries Training Camp, Moana
Springs, near Reno, New, June %
Jeffries and his trainers are again on
the job. This time they are in the hot
springs here three miles south of Reno.
The big fellow reached here early today.
This little mining town has gone crazy
over the prospects and nothing is to
good for the fighters.
Richard announced that the battle
would surely take place July A at 100
O'Clock western time. At the same
time he announced that he would not
permit the Langford- Ketchel fight to be
held in the arena on the morning OF the
big fight. The promoter who is facing
financial loss, due to the eleventh
hour move that drove him out Of San
Francisco, does not want to take a
chance at splitting the gate receipts.
As a result, the latter fight is up in the
air and may be postponed.
Jeffries and Johnson will fight in all
arena erected on the spot where Hart
and Root fought on July 4th, 1906.
This is about one mile fir rom the center
of Reno.
Reno was notified yesterday morning
that it would have to raise $17 900 to
get the fight. In half an hour the
money was in Richards hands.
Early today Contractors Mclaughlin
and Walsh who were building the fight
ppena in Frisco set small army of car
renters to work. Identically the same
clans that had been drawn for the
Frisco building will be used here.
There does not seem to be any chance
to prevent the fight here. Governor
Dickerson has declared that the only
thing that would cause him to act
would be proof that the scrap is not
to be on the level.
Tom Flanagan, Johnson's manager
who came here with Richard, had con-
siderable difficulty in securing training
quarters for Johnson owing to the pre-
judice against the black but he finally
succeeded in securing Kicks resort, a
road house about 3 miles southwest OF
the town.
Flanagan has wired Johnson to come
here Immediately. Reno people have
decided that they will throw open their
houses to those who came to see the
fight. Reno is 1880 feet above the
sea level, but sporting men already
here say the change in altitude will
have no effect on the fighters.
Reno will be a law-abiding town
during the Jeffries-Johnson milling.
Chief OF Police Durkee and Sheriff
Terrell have united and declared they
will preserve order on July 4th. They
will permit no liquor to be sold in the
fight arena, believing that the natural
race prejudice, inllamed by whiskey,
might result in trouble for Johnson if
he whips Jeffries.
Tex Richard today announced that
he was through with the prize fighting
game for all time after the present
fight. Il shall have nothing more to
do with pugilism he said today. /
will be miner after July 4. D."

ALEXANDRIA, VA.
WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE %,

THE Golden Rule" will be applied
to intoxicated persons in Chicago, if an
ordinance now in the hands Of the Ju-
dietary committee is passed by the city
council. The city council Judiciary
committee has decided that in the future
all "drunks" found on the street by
nolicemen must be taken to their
homes. 1t did this despite an opinion
given by Assistant Corporation Counsel
HAYES that it is illegal for policeman
10 take an intoxicated person to ms
home instead Of to the police station,
and after Judge Mex. Cleland, father
of the proposed ordinance, had told the
committee that he had gotten around
the objection raised by the assistant
corporation counsel by changing the
words found on the street in an IN
toxicated condition" to found on the
street in a condition OF physical help
lessness. The committee sill report
the measure favorably to the council
next Monday night There has always
been an idea among certain people in
all cities that policemen should be pub
lie nurses. and the time may come
when by the agitations Of philanthro-
Dists station houses will be supplied
with sedan chairs for the purpose Of
transporting drunken men to their
homes

times in the abdomen and the other
once. They were about 20 and 80

Concerning Young Men.

Dear Miss Doom:
VIII you kindly tell me to do?
I know two young men and they try
to make me feel that they think a lot
of me. One of them, when I meet him
on the street. comes home with me, and
| have asked him to call and he avs
that he will, but I do not see him again
until | meet him. Then he comes home
with me. The other one Is the
same, only he makes an engagement.
but never comes when he says he will.
and when / meet him again he never
refers to it.. but walks home with
me. Now, Miss Doom, I do not care
for them, but I do not like to hurt their
feelings. WORRIED.
If the young men had the proper re-
gard for you they would ask to call
upon you in your home and would not
depend upon seeing you on the street
and then walking home with you. You
need not feel obliged to accept their
attentions because you feel that It
would hurt their feelings not to do so.
| Refuse to allow either one of them to
walk home with you whenever he hap
pens to meet you on the street, par
ticularly the one who makes an en-
gagement which he keeps and
gives you no explanation.

You go! Why, you wouldn't like

siderably nonplussed.

the bills; I'll make 1t something his
toric. Please do! I'm bored to death
I'VE can't spare the time; we are
here on business" said Emerson.
"Business!" Clyde remarked. Thai
sounds interesting. I haven't seen any
body for years who was really busy al
anything that was worth being busy
at. 1t must be a great sensation te
| really do something"
Don't you do anything?"
"Oh, yes; I'm as busy as a one
legged sword dancer, but I don't dc
anything. It's the same old thing
leases to sign, rents to collect, and
that sort of rot. My agent does most
of 1t. however. l wish 1 were like you,
Boyd: you always were a lucky chap

thought Of the earlier part of the eve

and sighed. well, there is only one
man I'd rather see get her than you.
and that's me-or whichever is

"I'm not sure it's proper for either
of us to get her" smiled Boyd.
