JOHNSON EXPECTS To WHIP JEFFR|Es
IN 70 ROUNDS At THE VERY MOST

some of the smart fellows, with me play

surprise Of their lives.

his opponent TO do. as well as having
hos own plans made bit in advance. ]
never fought a man yet that I didn't
have some notion of how he intended
to go at me. Intuition, 1 think. is
what the learned guys call II. Any
how, whatever it is. I've got il. and
it served me well in the past. Before
boxed Burns 1 knew that he would
try to rush me off my feet and he
tore after me just as / expected him
to do OF course, Tommy Burns and
Jim Jeffries are two very different
persons, but the principles ere the same
1 know that Jeffries figures on taking
the heart out of me early in the game.
He thinks he can bull me all over
the ring in the first eight rounds, and
have me hanging on for dear ffe-
And that's the idea a good many OF
his friends have, too
The man doesn't live on this earth
who can throw me around just as he
wants to. Jim Jeffries is strong fell
low all right, but when he bumps into
NE he'll be buckling UP with a man
that's every bit as strong as he is

It's like this" he said finally; L
haven't yet told anybody just what
kind of a battle I think it is going
to be- and consequently made no pre-
diction as to the number of rounds 1t
is TO last. Because in the first place
it is only in the course of the last week
or so that l came TO the conclusion that
the fight would really take place Yes.
/ know the forfeits were posted and
all that but somehow 1 couldn't get 1t
into my head that Jeffries was absO-
lutely on the level in meaning to fight
me. Perhaps il was because / had been
hunting for the chance so long, and
when it. seemed sure I was going to
get it, I could hardly believe in my good
luck
Perhaps you'll think I'm kidding"
he also said, but what I'm going TO say
IS in dead earnest As sure as the sun
shines on US today I expect to knock
out Jim Jeffries within IS rounds Or
you can make it 20, to be exact 1t may
take a trifle longer than / look for
But not a a minute over 20 and that

A Persistent Yankee.

To illustrate Yankee persistency a Wall street magnate told the following story the other day:
 "A new England Yankee who was a prisoner on a pirate ship in the good old days when pirates roamed the seas became. because of his Yankee attri- butes, objectionable to his captors 1t was finally decided to maroon him op . desert island with but little food and coffin to remind him of his in- evitable fate. The island was found, and the New Englander and the coffin were left alone on the beach, while the pirate ship sailed away. For several days she sailed and then became be- calmed. For three days she lay there with not breath of air. On the even- ing of the third day a black speck was noticed on the horizon. It steadily grew larger and soon was close enough for the men on the ship to make out what it was."
 The man of millions paused for an Instant and then said, smiling. "It was the Yankee in his coffin, with half of the lid in either hand rowing for home."-Cincinnau Commercial Trib- uua

COURT ORDERS MILFORD COUNT
Judge Reed Issues Mandamus to Settle Dispute Over Votes '
 For Representatives
LIMIT OF ACTION DEC. g
Now Effort May Be Made to Claim That Ballot Boxes Cannot Be
 Reopened.

Through the granting by Judge Reed in the session of the superior court yesterday of a mandamus writ the contest over the election of men,- bers of the state house of represen- plete tie-up in Milford has been brought to a head so that develop ments towards settling the dispute will now be forthcoming. The man. damus was granted as the result of an application made by Attorney Omar Platt in behalf of the two Re- publican candidates and Attorney w. B. Stoddard for. the two Democra tic candidates. The action was purely 9 friendly application made with the aim of getting the matter settled. orator, Judge Charles Root and the six counters. Frederick Smith, Wit liam Pond, George Watson, Arthur Platt, Sanford Hawkins and MT. Tooker and orders that a recount be made by Dec. g.
 The election contest arises over the balloting for Attorney Charles w. Evarts and John L.. Merwin, the Re- publican candidates and Robert c. Stoddard and George s. Clark, the Democratic candidates for the two Milford seats in the state house.
 
 used for the first time this year and a dispute arose over the count such that the counters refused to give their certificates to the return of the count made by Judge Root as moderator thus making the return defective and valueless. It is claimed that the counters actually made no count as they failed to finish the counting of ballots for this office.
 It is said that despite the fnanda- mus it is possible some of the officials may refuse to count. It is claimed by one of the parties at interest. that once the. ballot boxes have been seal ed the counters have no right under the law, to reopen them in the case of vote for state representatives and it is said this claim will possibly be made before the court as a req son for not making the ordered re- count In case this contention Is sus- tained the contest will go to the State House of Representatives where it will be threshed out before the committee on contested elections which will report as to which candi- dates shall be seated from Milford.
