BY KNOCKOUT.

n HE eyes of the sporting world are
! on San Francisco.
Even baseball with its thousands
Of followers has been forced to take
back seat until July 4, when James
J. Jeffries, retired champion, who re-
turns to the ring to win back the
glory for the white race, and Jack
Johneon, champion, meet for the
worlds supremacy in pugilism.
That it will be a great battle there
10 no doubt. Jeffries at his best never
had q superior. Few persons who
have followed the pugilistic game be-
iieve there ever was fighter who
could have whipped the Jeffries that
trimmed Fob Fitzsimmons and Jim
Corbett. But right there is the Ques-
ton on which this fight hinges.
Is Jim -Jeffries the man he was in
1899, when he took the championship
away from "lanky Bob" or in 1902,
when he defeated the Cornishman a
second time? Reports from Jeffries'
training camp for the last month have
said that he Is In the greatest of con-
dition. Experts from all over the
land have expressed their astonish-
ment that the big fellow should
have been able to bring himself to
such rare form. Jim Corbett has been
with Jeffr1es since May % and they
have had some wonderful tits with

has been out of the ring six years.
When the match was made they
said Jeffries would not be able to get
