How an Australian Judge Decided .
 Difficult Matter.
 One of the occupations in Australia is sheep raising There are large ranches upon which many sheep and lambs find food. and the shepherds guard their own.
 One day man was arrested for stealing sheep. The man claimed that the sheep was his own: that il had been missing from his flock for some days. but as soon as he saw the animal he knew him.
 The other man claimed the sheep and said he had owned him since he was lamb and that he had never been away from the flock
 The judge was puzzled how 10 decide the matter. At last he sent for the sheep He first took the man in W hose possession the sheep was found to the courtyard and told him to call the sheep
 The animal made no response. only to raise bis head and look frightened as If in strange place and among strangers
 Bidding the officers to take the man back to the courtroom. he told them to bring down the defendant. The ae- cused man did not wait until he en- tered the yard. but at the gate and where the sheep could not see him he began a peculiar caii At once the sheep bounded toward the gate and by his actions showed that a familiar voice was calling
 His own knows him." said the judge.

pion of the world" is playing a one

Jeff Backed for $4,000
to 81, 400 to Beat Jack

New York, April 4.-Betting on the
Jeffries-Johnson~ fight started in earn
est here last night with the deposit of
$4,000 against $1,4o0 that the former
champion would defeat the negro on
July 4. There had been some wager
ing before, but the posting of 400
was the first real evidence that odds
were going to. favor Jeffries for some
time to come.
Clarence Berry of Los Angeles, at
one time a prominent Klondike miner
and now interested in the oil fields OF
California, stated that he had $3.50, 900
to bet on Jeffries at any price that was
reasonable. Charles Sutro, stock
broker of San Francisco. quickly took
$4,000 of it at odds of z to 10 and then
announced that he would have as much
more to bet on the negro before the
fight.
Jack Gleason one of the promoters
of the fight. said that the odds of to
10 in favor of Jeffries were first es-
rooms about a fortnight ago. Gleason
said that he looked for these odds to
remain stationary for at least a month
or more. with possibly a slight short
ening when Johnson commenced active
training on May 1. After that, he said
showed Jeffries a favorite at g. to 10
with either 9 to 10 or even money pre-
vailing on the day of the fight.

Jeffries' last day In Los Angeles was

near his own residence, many of the
champions intimate friends calling to
say goodby.
At $50 Jefrs automobile arrived at
the station with Jack Ripper, Jeffries'
partner; Mrs. Jeffries and Mrs. Ripper.
1t took some time for Jeffries to find
gage charge he would have to pay and
then the party went to the train, which
was making up, followed by the crowd
which quickly gathered on the arrival
of the champion at the depot.
For fifteen minutes previous to the
departure of the train the big fellow

BALL PLAYER
MEETS WITH
ACCIDENT

A large crowd gathered at the north
side grounds yesterday afternoon to
witness the first game of the season
between the Hammond Grays and the
ST. CASHIERS. which ended in the defeat
of the Hammond Grays by a score of
to 0.
The two teams were in fine form for
the game. Both pitchers hurled a good
game and few hits were made by either
team. The ST. CASHIERS took advantage
of two costly errors made by the Grays
and scored their only two counts on
the fumbles, one coming in the first
inning and the other In the second.
The Grays settled down after they
had given the CASHIERS the two counts
which last the game for them, and the
best they could do was to hold the
CASHIERS from scoring again.
An accident happened to DeRolf. one
of the Grays' players, he getting
spiked in the leg while sliding to third.
The injury was not a serious one and
the player finished the game
