May 4. Brown and ruildy from his out-of-doors work, Jim Jeffries came up from his training 'quarters ,at Ben Lomond late today to Leiscort his wife back to the camp, r ; In spite of his trainer's advice to lay off ; a day or so and take things easy, Jeffries plans to return to camp tomorrow, tak- ihg an early train, declaring that he does . not wish to break training for more than ' day. I f He had put in a busy morning at Ben j Lomond and at the railway station ; Farmer Bums said '. ; -'Don't hurry back. A couple of days' rest won't be unwise." I . 'I couldn't Idle for more than a day," iTPturned Jeffries. "It's no longer any Vffort for me to work and I know I'm jlsoon going to be in bully shape. I wish jjthe fight was the fourth of next month . "Instead of the Fourth of July. I know I could be at my best In another four weeks." "And for that reason,"- Burns chipped in. "I'm going to advise you to take 'things easy for the next fortnight. Just a little light work and boxing will keep you feeling good, for you've accomplished , a great deal more than was expected of you in the first four weeks of training." The dash that characterized Jeff's work : of yesterday was apparent again in his forenoon work today, and Bob Armstrong . came in for another sound drubbing when 1 he sparred him for four rounds. The stiffness and soreness In the right shoul , dr. which has been bothering Jeffries. seems to have disappeared, for he used the right with good effect all through the ' boxing. Manager Sam Berger, whq- was in San Francisco today watching the payment of the 30,000 installment of the purse money at the bank, is expected to re turn to the camp on Thursday, and Jef fries' brother Jack is expected there the following day.

The Eastern dispatch went on to say that a friend had written Johnson ask ing him if he should bet the fight would be held on July 4 and that John son advised him against such a bet. "It's all a lie." shouted Johnson, when he was asked about it. "I never sent any such message and they ought to ask me about these things before pending out such fakes." Rickard also wants it denied, as he is afraid that it might hurt the East ern seat sale. PART OF FIGHT MONEY PUT TJP J 500 Cold Pieces Stacked T"p. Johnson and Promoters Pose. SAN FRANCISCO. May 3.

At least such is the charge filed ag-alnst the dapper leader of the Vernon Brew ers by the thug's who wanted to see a baseball game yesterday. The McCre die -band had been home two full weeks before Happlcus hove on the scene, and the elements behaved most flatteringly, but the moment the excitable leader of the Vernon bunch grot Into town the rain descended In torrents, and Happlcus is blamed for the whole thing. Yester day's game was therefore postponed. It Is probably not without foundation that the "queer" leader of the Vernon band Is held responsible for the cli matic conditions, for the new "outfit" worn by Hogan Is enough to precipi tate most any old thing- In the way of the unexpected. He alighted from the northbound Southern Pacific train yes terday morning clad In a light green suit of extraordinary texture, and built by an expert tailor, and to add to the "dog" put on for the occasion, he wore a milk-white overcoat, which is the envy of the Beau Brummels of Port land. Leave it to Happlcus he cre ated a sensation when he entered this village. Gloating- Short-lrfved. However, Happlcus in his new re fralia only gloated - over the populace for a short period.. In fact, he "spread it on" only as long- as he evaded the g-llms of Perle Casey, captain of the Portland team, and the one player In the Pacific Coast League who has first mortgage on Hogan's goat. The mo ment Casey set eyes on the leader of Vernon crew he assaulted him, pronto. It was. not -the regulation assault proscribed by police ethics or by the laws of the community. It was simply Casey's own method of greeting- Ho gan, and when the gingery leader of the Portland bunch got through with his old-time adversary and former teammate Hogan's new and "classy" regalia was fit for the hospital. According- to Casey, no decent, self-respecting father of a family, such as Hogan professes to be, would have had the nerve to flaunt such garments In the faces of the respectable citizens of Portland. One of the prgiclpal downtown streets was wiped up with Hogan's new uniform. The "sashay" between the two former Tacoma Tigers was witnessed by a large crowd of the fans, who nearly collapsed at the antics of the two rivals, who are the closest of friends when off the baseball dia mond. "Perle Casey" Is Answer. "Who has Happy Hogan's goat?" Is the question often asked. "Perle Casey" ..Is the answer, and the dapper leader of the Vernon crew will con cur in the statement. At that. Happlous has landed In town with one of. the best baseball teams ever gathered together in the Pacific Coast LeagTie, and today, or whenever "Jupe Pluvlus" Is agreeable, he will trot his bunch out on that Vaughn street lot to give battle to McCredie's hopefuls In the most approved manner. "Every one a champion," Is Hap plcus slogan, and he adds that any team that beats his ag-g-regatlon will do so because his boys have (been stricken dead. "We're going to make a clean sweep of the series," says Ho gan. and the Portland fans will be on hand to see whether he makes good or not. Weather permitting, the Port land and Vernon ' teams will play at 8:30 o'clock today. 3-BAGGER KILLS LOXG GAME Sacramento, In Fourteenth Inning, Makes' Needed and Only Run. SAN FRANCISCO, May 8. With Board man's smashing three-bagger that tore through the outfield to the clubhouse, Sacramento chalkedi up a run In the 14th Inning of the game with Oakland today and broke up a splendidly-played session that had been carried toward dark with out a man crossing the plate. Brlggs was on first when the third baseman connected with a low one from Kelson's delivery, and as the sphere sailed he ambled home. Oakland could not retrieve the honors in the last half of the Inning. Score : R.H.E. R.HE.

Although weather conditions appear none too promising, the students of Co lumbia University and the Washington High School hope to see their teams play this afternoon at 3:30 o'clock on the Multnomah field. Both teams are anxious to win this game, as it will make a ma terial difference In the race either way it goes. If the Columbia team wins all the teams In the league will be tied, but if Washington High wins It will sjlve that team a strong grip on the pennant and cups that go to the winner of the race. Washington won the pennant last year and with practically the same team this .year expects to duplicate last year's trick.
