CHICAGO, Sept. John D..
and ]. Pierp may be exclusive:
royal kinks may have high walls
about them excluding the common
herd, but for ultra exclusiveness
they have nothing on Jack John
SOL, the champion pug"
Jack is sole proprietor of what
he terms "Cafe de Champion,
and when he wants to be he can
be just as inaccessible as the next
one.
Entering the place, the first
man you meet Is a bartender; he
will direct you to rear room,
where you tell waiter you want
to see Jack Johnson; the waiter
then points out Johnsons brother
to you; the brother takes your
card and hunts up Johnson's sec
rotary. After a delay of half an
hour or SO you are taken up two
flights of stairs and presented by
maid to Johnson.
But when you once reach John
son the rest is easy. He will craze
your pardon for delaying you so
long and then will tell you so
long and then will tell you that
such precautions are necessary.
Bringing his famous golden smile
into play he will explain that an
average of eight or ten news
paper men come to see him daily;
that there are about six promo
tiers and at least a score of agents
and fully 100 people visit his cafe
for the sole purpose OF seeing him
and shaking hands with him.
Perhaps you would like to know
something of the cafe. which is In
the haert of Chicago's ''black
belt" The bar Is not the largest
or the finest in the world, but 1t
will pass muster. The cafe itself,
to be found in the rear, Is remem-
bered principally by a number of
oil paintings on the wall, the one
of the champion himself being
the most conspicuous.
Jacks $67.50 per monogramed
cuspidors aren't in daily use
Johnson keeps them stored away
under lock and key and they are
brought out on special occasions
only.
On the second floor are other
dining and eating rooms and on
the third are private dining
room and living rooms for John
son when he doesn't care to go to
his hom.,, a few blocks distant.
To watch Johnson eat is enough
to drive a dyspeptic to suicide
For his ordinary dinner he has a
meal something like this: Two
or three fried chickens, salad. q

MANDOT'S WORK

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 4. -
Tim McGrath, who brought Tom
Sharkey within step of the
worlds heavyweight champion,
returned from Los Angeles today
with Eddie Campi. who beat Bat
Ting Chico, in the 10-round pre-
liminary to the Rivers-Mandot
battle. MeGrath says Mandot is
the best qualified of any of the
present contenders to wrest the
title from AID Wolgast.
"Mandot," he says, "has a ter
rife right hand and good left
5ab. He beat Rivers all the way,
Is cool under fire and has all the
other earmarksh of champion. ="
McCarey, McGrath said, was so
Impressed with Camps work that
he may match him with Johnny
Coulon.

Coming up from behind in the
third inning the Seattle Giants
crowded in 7 runs and cinched
the game esterday. They kept
piliDg up the runs and the Tigers
fought back gamely. The final
count showed 10 to 8. I.
The Tigers hit the ball hard.
Pop" Thompson was not equal
to stopping them, but the lead
was too much to overcome. Bel
ford pitched as good a game as
the Seattle man, but the luck was
against him. Instances were the
home runs of Chick and Saddle.
The bases were empty when each
of these swats came. Neighbors
was the batting king OF the Tiger
squad, getting three hits. Bert
Whaling and Mann excelled with
the bludgeon~for the Giants.

CAMPAIGN NEARING CLOSE.
Presidential Election Will Take Place
Two Weeks From Today.

The election of the President OF the
United States is but two weeks off.
Alexandria, will of course, remain in
the Democratic column, as it ever has
done. Considerable speculation, IS
however, indulged as to the number
of votes which will be cast in this city
for Taft and Roosevelt. Some peo-
pie are impressed by the notion that
the Bull Moose candidate will poll $50
votes. This is laughed at by others
who do not believe that he will get
one-third that number. A man who
makes politics study offered to bet
in a cafe a night or two ago that
Roosevelt would not secure fifty votes
in this city.
In the list of candidates publish
ed in the Gazette few days ago the
name of Frank Evans, Bull Moose can
didate for Congress from this district
was omitted. Mr.. Evans was regu-
larly nominated by that party and
filed his name in the court house as
a candidate according to law, and has
acknowledgment from the Secretary
of State to that effect.

charge of stealing an overcoat from
George Lomax, colored, a blind man,

proceeded to the store of a second
hand dealer where he offered to sell
it for 80 cents. About this time Chief
Goods was upon his track, and he was
arrested a few minutes later. Foot
made no defense and was sentenced
to serve six months in Jail.

The attention of the police has re-
Gently been called to the discharging
of pistols during the wee sma' hours
in the northwestern section of the
city. Officers Reid and Garvey were
in that neighborhood about 2:30
o'clock this morning on the lookout
for individuals who carry concealed
weapons, when they heard several
pistol shots and saw q young colored
man who had discharged the weapon.
The officers soon had him in custody
and the pistol in their possession. The
negro, who gave his name as Jesse
Schneider, was brought before the
police court this morning. When ask
ed why he carried pistol, he said
