to Join Him,

BEN LOMOND, Cal, April 1s.-BHly
Papke will join James j. Jeffries In a rev

tiers while preparing for his next fight
which probably will be with Frank Klaus

Sam Berger, Jeffries' manager, received a
telegram from Papke today asking IL he
might have training accommodations with
Jeffries, and Berger, after consulting JEFF
fries, wired that arrangements could be
made for him. Jeffries put In a strenuous
Sunday. a. large crowd OF visitors came
to the camp and promptly at noon JEFF
fries, dttired in his A'gyIn" toys. began an
endurance. exhibition 'twith sths apulley
weights In the gymnasium. There was
nothing spectacular in the work and 1t
did not have as much interest for the
visitors as boxing, but it gave them an
excellent opportunity to judge Jeffries' con-
dition. For half an hour Jeffries hauled
away at the weighted ropes. Then fol-
lowed shadow boxing, rope skipping and
bag punching for an hour and" half. '"s
Jeffries explained that his prolonged ses-
sion with the chest weights was to timber
up his neck and shoulder muscles to avoid
any future attack of the cramp which
suddenly stopped him Friday in the middle
OF a boxing bout with Bob Armstrong.
Jeffries has done no boxing since that time,
and his masseurs ave paid particular at
tention to the afflicted spot. Farmer
Burns, tr~ainer-in-chief, said he did not
think 1t likely Jeffries YOU have another
attack.
Jeffries left his camp long enough this
afternoon to a X an automobile ride to
Santa Cruz and ipaugurate the base ball
season there by pitching the first ball. He
returned to camp this evening.
Dick Adams came from Oakland today
with the report that Mrs. Jeffries, who
was operated upon yesterday. is getting
along well. This news put Jeffries in a
good humor.

Hutchinson, Kan, this morning to
play the last two exhibition games before
going to Wichita to open the Western

The larger sizes were dealt out by
Brother Dave to Holienbeek, WEIGH and

given to Corridor, schipke and King. After
the suits were allotted. the remainder Of the
day was spent in one big tanning bee from
which a general opinion was derived that
there was nothing to It but Omaha as
the team that will bring home the grapes.
Jimmy Kane, first sacker, and the cause
of much worry to Omaha fans because Of
his late appearance with Pas pets, arrived
in the city Sunday, and If anything were
ever the matter with him II would take a
microscopic examination to disclose it. The
