skirts OF Reno. where the fight is to take
place. The scattered piles OF lumber have
begun TO take shape. and by Saturday
night. so the contractors have promised,
the structure will be completed and ready

A pine board is a pine board almost
everywhere except in this arena: there
Monday will see a remarkable distinc-
ton between pine boards. The two rows
OF seats directly beneath the raised Mat
form upon which the worlds champion
ship will be decided are reserved for the
army Of correspondents. There are I34
spaces allotted TO them. so the contractors
say. Then behind these two rows there are

senting 1900 seats, which are worth $50 a.
piece. The aristocracy Of the pine decreases

There are certain circumstances which /
viii make the comfort Of the SPECTATORS
a problematieal factor. There are to be
no cushions. No soda water or other
beverages in bottles will be peddled
through the arena, this because some
fight followers are so simple in their
direetness of expression that they might
hurl the bottles at either OF the prin-
cipals in the fight or at one another
upon provocation For the same reason

arena with an armful OF cordwood or a
bundle OF rocks; nor will anybody who
is suspected Of carrying a revolver pass
the vigilant State police and deputy
sheriff guards at the entrance.
No DRINKS Admitted.
If anybody is appreciably drunk. he
will not get through the gates, even if
he has a $50 ticket. BY the same token,
anybody that Is disposed TO regale him
self inside Of the arena from a bootleg
or flask that he may have smuggled
past the guards will be advised not TO do
so. There will be soft pedal on language
also. Ushers and deputy sheriffs will
be empowered 10 down explanations of
