IS 11 It ST N KG KO CHAMPION"
Jnltiwin IMr.-t Black Man to Get
Heavyweight Honors.
Jack Johnsan is the first neirro who
ever won the world's heavyweight pupl
listie championship In fact, he is tho
only ne-rro who ever was permitted to
baule r'or the honor. Fie was born In
n.ihfr st on. Texas, in S7. and bnn his
rin rar-er in lJXd. He Is 6 feet 14 Inches

close to if poumis.
Hums was born in Hanover, Ont.. in

a ronjrh and ready liijhier who delighted
to sail in and mix thinps with liis ad
versary. Favored with great length of
a: nis. his reach measuring 74' inches,
Burns lias proved himself a bad man at
clo.-t ranjje. Despite rlie fact that John
son overtopped him in height by eix and
one-half inches, Furns had the better
arsrument in reach by one and three
fourths incliee.
Burns Got Rip: Fnd.
A purse of $U5.fl was htins up for th
battle, which was scheduled to p-o 2
rounds. Of th's amount Burns demanded
and received this sum to be paid
him notwithstanding the outcome of thv
fl arh t- Johnson had to be satisfied wit i

wluit probably was the largest crowd that
cvrr witnessed a pugilistic contest.
Hums did his training at Tarlinr Point,
wliih; Johnson got in condition at Man
ley, a seaside suburb. Besides a rerinue
of skillful trainers who gave the men
daily prartk at the game of hit, stop
ant 1 get away, both Burns and Johnson
followed American training methods by
doing hard road work. Bach man picked
up a lot of loose change by giving train
ing exhibitions twice a week at the
stadium.
Victory KncU Ijong Hunt.
Since James J. Jeffries retired and
Tommy Burns claimed the championship,
Johnson has been trying to ?et the Cana
dian boy to meet him and he has trailed
him throughout the United States to
Kngland to get a match. It was not until
Mcintosh, the promoter of this fight and
who also acted as referee, offered a purse
of fcio.CX) for a battle at Rushcutters Bay,
a suburb of Sydney, that Burns con
sented to meet Johnson. Then he stip
ulated how the money should be split
up. the size of the ring and all the con
ditions surrounding the tight- Johnson
immediately accepted and sailed from
London for Australia to begin training.
Johnson, during his rln? career, has
fought 114 ring battles, and 22 of his op
ponents have gone down to defeat by the
knockout route.
Put Old Bob Out.
Prominent among those who have been
put to sleep by the big black are Jack
Jeffries, a brother of the ex-heavy weight
champion, who was knocked out by John
son at Los Angeles in 1902 in five rounds,
and Bob Fitzsimmons, who, in Phila
delphia in 17. was unable to withstand
Johnson's shifty work more than two
rounds. Ht has lost but two fights, one
a 20-round decision to Marvin Hart and
th other on a foul to Joe Jeanette.
Not since the days of James J. Corbett
has the prize-ring seen so perfect a boxer
as Johnson. Long and lithe, he is as
graceful as a dancing-master and as true
as an arrow in placing his blows. Es
pecially deft is he with his left, and few
boxers unless they have great skill are
able to keep the biff black man from
beating their faces to tatters.
In courage Burns was a bulldog always;
Johnson, It . was said by some, has a
yellow streak." In none of his many
battles, however, has it been proved that
Johnson would not take a good beating.
Neither Burns nor Johnson, however, has
been considered a man of the stamp of
Jeffries, Sullivan or Corbett In the fight
ing game.
HOPKINS DEFEATS ALBANY
Exciting Gig Race Between Crews
of Warships.
SAX DIEGO, Cal., Dec. 25. In a two
mile straightaway boatrace for four
oared gigs the crew from the torpedo
boat Hopkins defeated the crew from
the cruiser Albany by several lengths.
The race was for a purse of $500 and, as
usual, the sailors backed their crews to
the extent of their purses, so that much

BY JOSEPH ir. QI'EN'TIN.
Good, old, reliable Jupiter Pluvius won

grounds, and in turn the Multnomahs
won from the Cricketers by the score.
of seven fronls to nothing. The players
were turned into mudlarks and often it
looked as if they could have reached
the poal with preater ease by swimming
Instead of sticking to football.
Early in the day rain b"pan to fall and
dampened the spirits of intendin:r spec
tators to such an extent that the larpe
majority feninlned at nomP "if We
only had clear, dry weather, we should
have had at least 2eo spectators on the

spite of the undeniable fait that the
football field was In spots watery pool..
frinped by sticky mud. those who braved
the weather saw an interesting, well
played, although, one-sided game of
soccer football. The contest was also
spectacular, with plenty of easily-seen,
oien play, and was worth th'" money.
Somebody .spread the story that the
Muitnomahs had pone "stale," like Alex

more fields to win, but the Muitnomahs
came on the sawdust trained to the min

day without very much fatipue. They
are fast on their feet and use combina
tion and Judgment in spoilinp opponents'
plays, especially in kickinp over the side
line for safety when the pressure is mo
mentarily threatening. Their defense is
superb and their forward line, composed
of yotinp players, is quick, sure and
strong. 1 do not know another soccer
team in this section to beat them, look
where you will. Winninp this pam"
lands the Muitnomahs into a sure lead
for the soccer championship of the city
league.
Bruce a Great Acquisition.
As for the Cricketers, they deserve
pralso for tackllnp so powerful, but yet
lighter and more skilful opponents. Much
was expected of Bruce, the new center
from Scotland. He is a great acquisi
tion and is a smart, tricky player and
handy with his feet, but was up against
boys who also know the pame. Andy
Matthew, Sim Bennett and Eddie Sum
mons held their own In blocking Tiruee's
plays. Bruce also is clearly not used'to
a wet field with a sawdust coverinar, and
it will require another game or two and
a dry field to give him a fair test as a
player. Churchley. as goalkeeper, was
weak at first in his kicks, but gradually
warmed to his work and cam out
strong. He was peppered with shois and
it's a wonder he was able to stop so
many. Mitchell and Jago, as fullbacks,
were reliable and steady and kicked
with good Judgment.
Fenwick was the most active Cricket
ers' halfback and In play was ubiquitous.
Art Mills put up a good game early in
the afternoon, but was checked so hard
that his after play seemed to lack force.
Teale came near scoring. Once he sent
a swift shot toward Barton and it just
grazed the bar above Barton's head.
That was the nearest the Cricketers
came. Teal. Maclean and Mackenzie
played well in position. The Cricketers
are weak In attacking power but what's
the use? They were up against it In
playing on unfamiliar ground, the rain
spoiled much of the pleasure they other
wise would have had, and man for man
they did their best. Better luck say a
year from now. Cricketers.
The Muitnomahs played their hardest,
and they reminded me of a bunch of
young colts trained and fit for the first
race course. The cripples, Crosby and
Hanson, played the game for all it was
worth and were almost as skillful as
ever. Once Crosby and Bruce came to
gether, and I guess they both parted
with equal honors. The Multnomah for
wards played a dashing gatne irom rue
first. Two minutes after the first kick
off there were two throws in and one
foul against the red and white, when
suddenly Sid Mills by a bit of lightning
play got the sphere and sent it past
Churchley. First blood for Multnomah.
Eleven minutes later Harry Matthew, by
as. clever a play, got past Jago and sent
In a swift, low shot, which scored. These
two tallies seemed to take the heart
temporarily out of the Cricketers. Twice
again Harry Matthew sent the sphere

through, but each time was declared off
side. Mills and Dick were the other
scorers. Then came half time.
Kain Pours JlurinK Second Half.
So far the rain had
been content to
come down gently, hut
second half started. J.
as .soon as the
Piuvtus poured.
Mills got two more goals and Kydd one
in this half. Barton again played a
star game in goal, and the Matthew
brothers were at their best, which is gilt
tdge. Bennett is now playing like a
veteran, and scores witli clever head
play, gammons is the quickest runner
in the. bunch and uses both feet in kick
ing. Dick shows renewed skill in pass
ing, and so does Kydd. Sid Mills sur
prised even his friends by his accuracy
ln passing.
I would say to those of the crowd that
saw their first game of soccer yesterday:
Don't Judge of it as a star game of
its kind, because the two teams were,
not fairly matched, the Muitnomahs being
overwhelmingly the stronger, and be
cause soccer requires a dry field for its
pretty, tricky, dribbling plays. Give the
boys another chance when old Jupiter
Pluvius is asleep and the sun shines.
Will it take a Portland Vnited or II
waco to trim the Muitnomahs? It's time
something was doing to pick out a strong
second team.
TI13 referee at yesterday's game was
William Hutchinson, and lie was able
and impartial. The goal judges were
Marischat Keith and Clyde dimming.

feated Floyd Dougherty, of Providence,
and Samuel Myers, of Cambridge, by
half a lap. Dorando's time was 1:03:39.
That of the Dougherty-Myers team was
1:04:18.
A large crowd watched the contest.
Dougherty ran against the Italian in
the first six miles and finished the first
lap a few yards in the lead. Dorando
took the lend in the second lap. and was
never again headed. At the end of the
sixth mile, the Italian's lead was three
quarters of a lap.
Myers then came on the track, and by
fast work cut down Dorando's lead to
a quarter of a lap. Dorando, by the
end of the 11th mile, however, was half
a lap ahead, and maintained this lead
to the finish.

to the winning team. The Oregons
changed their line-up in order to work
out some of their men who have had lit

The new line-up was: C. Siiaw. cen

in the first few minutes of play. Fentnn
took his place, throwing six baskets; E.
Shaw, guard three; Teats, guard four:
