(Special Dlepslch by Leased Wire to The Joamal)
. Ban Franclaco, Aug. It. With only
11 days of work remaining, Jim Jeffries'
knee Is behaving handsomely. It has
carried him through days and nights of
deer stalking without emitting a creak,
and has born its share of tha boiler
maker's bulk uncomplainingly, during
many boisterous seances with the- 400
pound' sandbag. ' Tha housemaid's binge
as been tried In tha lira and proven,
and It tha champion is doomed to break
dowa again during the present campaign
It will be at soma other point of hta
anatomy. ' Further tnlahaps are not
looked for, however. Bo Jar a tha work
of preparation is concerned. Jeffries
feels that ha baa rounded tha stretch
band and la heading for tha wire.
thoae who hava had to do with getting
the bla fellow ready for bis aeventtt
championship battle are confident ba will
mount tha steps of ths fighting platform
in good shape on the night of August
26. In Billy Delany-B opinion, jererios
has been fit to go to tha scratch tor
several days.
The men who are handling Jack Mun
roe are oorreaponding optlmlatlo. They
think out at tha beach that tha poat
ponement was a good thing for Mun
roa. after all. He put on Tory little
weight while resting, and since ha re
sumed work he baa boxed dally with
heavyweight of ovary known variety. -
Ha has etacked up. against fat fel
low and thing fellows, short men .and
tall men. Ha has been against light
ning faat Jabbers and heavy-handed
bruisers. He figures he has been struck
at from every point of Jtha oompaaa,
and that he naa sampled every assault
known to the boxing game.
Ha ha a been placid and persevering
through It all, and has Satisfied him
self that none of his temporary apar
rlnr mates can chuck him under the
chin and escape without a rasping right
hand punch in the ribs. . It to on these
right-hand smaahea mainly . that the
miner places reliance. He haa had oppor
tunity to improve hlmael In. the knowl
edge of delivering Jhein while settlng-to
with all manner of opponents, and he
believes tha experience will avail him
when he stands toe to toe with "the
mighty Jeffries. . .
Boms thing for Happiness.
There la lust one thing wanted to
complete Munroes happlneaa at present
He. would like to ave "Kid" .McCoy
around. Ha believed McCoy showed
him lots of tricks while ha was train
ing for Tom Sharkey, and he Is in dally
hopes of being joined by ttcuoy at
the beach. McCoy, when heard from
a day or two ago, was somewhere around
BalV- Lake. He saia ne was coming w
Snn Francisco to coach Munroe and, in
cidentally, to Inquire Into the prospects
for a match with either Fltssimmona or
O'Brien, The'Kid'- told hta interview t
era that he expected to see Munroe
lower Jeffries' colors. He will surely
create soma excitement when he turns
up at ' the beach. - Matchmaker Oreg
gains of the Ban Franclaco Athletic
club announces that his September at
traction will be Joe Oans and Jimmy
Gardner. There is a match with claaa
to it one which la properly handled
and huabanded should awake laahlns of
intereat.
Tha weight named is 138 pounds ac
3 o'clock. This placea the participants
well outside the pale of tha lightweight
division, but aa matches are arranged
nowadays it makes very little difference.
The charm of the thing la that a white
skinned boy has at laret been found who
la willing to meet the dusky, terror Oans
In a fair standup battle on Oans' own
terms.
A aest Is added to the situation by
the fact that sporting men generally be
lieve Gardner has ac least an even
chance of winning. To be In a position
to aay, "I'm the fighter who defeated
John Oans," will be about all the dis
tinction Gardner will require, 1 and if
he succeeds in humbling the hitherto
Invincible negro the fact that ha fought
several pounds above the scale will not
detract from the brilliancy of the
achievement.
Los Angeles has Jumped Into ' the
pugilistic bustneas again with both feet
and tha. city named will make San
Franclaco hustle In future in tha mat
ter of bidding for tha flstto talent.
It almost looka as If Promoter Mc-
Buuthern City, lias stolen
a march on tha local matchmakers at the
outset in aecurlng the services of "Bat
tling" Nelaon and Aurella Herrera for
a September date. Tha trouble with
the Ban Franclaco fight handlera is that
they .are averse to promulgating any
kind of a go that does not enable them
to put forward a real, live champion as
one of tha contestanta. Thla Is a big
mistake. To begin with, the claaa limits
have been effaced to such an extent that
about the only Simon-pure champions In
captivity are - Jamea J. Jeffrlea and
Frankle Nell, and in th next Judicious
matching If capable performers Invari
ably produces better results than th
pitting of a top notcher against an In
ferior workman. , .
Herrera and Balson.
It Isn't easy to think up a tight that
promlsea better than the Herrera-Nelson
affair. Nelson haa shown himself to be
a lad who can atand all kinds of wear
and tear without flinching or Blowing
up, while tha wlxarday of Herrera wal
lop la potent enough to keep Interest In
a bout alive from the starting bell to the
decision. As a durable, aggressive
tighter with punching power that talis.
Nelson stands head and ahoulders above
most men of his weight. As a finisher
Herrera la In a claaa by himself. He
may etagger around, but he 1 dangerous
as long as bis feet keep their grip on
tne noor. .
The rDav-Barry "Twin- Sullivan
match Is also 4 Los Angoie fixture and
one that should pan out well from a
standpoint of entertainment. Sullivan
who has had them on occasionally with
Jack Munroe while training out at
Sheehan's, has impressed th dally Visit
ors very favorably and It la felt that he
will make thlnge lively for' the fighting

and ha wiggles snd dips in such way
that he is a hard man to counter.
Sullivan Is probably the hardest man

always at home with hard men. He haa

SCRAPPING PIG IS
v FEATURE OF TRACK
One of the interesting features of
Irvlngton track is the stable where the
many valuable horses are cared for, and
prepared for the track. Many of the
horse owners, who own on or more
racers, each have a pet or mascot of
some kind attached to their atablea,
and these pets are given precedence
over everything, except the horses.
By long odds the most popular pet
at th park 1 a common, ordinary pig.
That Is, the pig Is common only from
the fact that It is a member of the
porcine family. In other respects It
is a novelty in that line, for it has
gained a reputation as a scrapper, a
regular Jim Jeffries and Bob Fltzalm
mons combined. While at Beattle, Bar
ney Flaherty. - the trainer of Hercules
and Toung Pepper, acquired possession
of this pig, while on a ramble In the
suburbs of that city. He took a fancy
to the animal, and brought It to the
Meadowa as a pet and mascot. Since
arriving at Irvlngton the pig, who has
been christened Joseau, has developed
flghtnlng tendencies which are not to be
overlooked. About the first day ' his
hogness landed at Irvlngton ha stacked
up' against Billy Donatban's goat, th4
stable companion of Nonle and Frank
Woods, and got the worst of the en
counter. . Joseau was not dlamayed by
hlw rinffat bt 1hH prrtlTiiInr pit, nnl
went back to hla own Quartera look In er
tor trouble, and the first opponent that
he met was John King's bull dog, Mike,
and at the end of the encounter tha bull
dog waa the second money carrier, for
he was licked to the . queen s taste.
Joeeau'a success in this battle with the
bull dog made htm anxious for more
conquetts, and he started a career of
victory which resulted in hla gaining
the title of undisputed champion of tha
stables. He haa met and defeated-two
goats, a Cootswold sheep, a wire haired
fox terrtor. which he shook Ilka a cat
would a rat; an Irish terrier, and a
black eatt Jack Flynn, the fanner
Jockey, has become tha trainer., of
Joseau, and has taught th pig several
tricks, with which he amuses th many
attaches of tne stables.
Many of the stables have a masoot of
some sort. Mrs. Harry Stover has a
valuable collie dog, which is the stable
companion of all the Stover horses.
Billy Dnnathan, the trainer of Nonle,
has a goat wuich is called Frank Woods.
This goat Is a noted climber, and unless
be ia watched will make an effort to
aacend to th moat difficult heights.
While at Los Angele this goat climbed
to the top of the grand stand by way of
the scuttle, which had been left un
covered while the flags were being
taken down. Ill royal goatnesa took
a keen delight In racing along the adge
of tha roof nub to the annoyance of
hts master, who greatly feared that
the reckless animal would lose Its foot
ing and fall off and be killed. They
managed after a deal of persuasion to
get tha gnat down to, terra ftrma with
out injury,

tures, the most prominent being th ao
oldent which befell Dr. Coughlan on his
mount Jim Roberta, at the end of th
race. ' At the start Dr. Cpughlan bad
considerable trouble with hla horse,
and th animal ran away twloa before
the barrier went up. When Starter
Mulholland finally got the horsea away
In a good start, with No Friend a neck
In the lead. Dr. Coughlan' right stir
rup broke and he was -, compelled to
rid the entire race with only one' stir
rup. When tha horses came under the
wire tha doctor waa aeen dlnarlnar to
hla mount and insr as th frm-aa,. ware
brought " to a atop, the doctor, faint
from exhaustion, fell from hla horse
and suffered th cutting of a vein in
his right arm. A physician was hur
riedly got and ths wound waa dressed.
Aside from th accident the doctor
rode a good race and were It not for his
fraotlous horse would have been. In a
fair way for some of the money. -
Tha start In th gentleman's race
waa good, save that of Jim Robert, who

with the bunch. Howard got away in
the lead with Quldado, Monda being aeo
ond. No Friend third, Raclvo fourth,

Quldado kept th lead .until th half,
when McRea shot Raclvo to the front by
a length, wiille No Friend dropped back
to fourth poaltlon, Quldado keeping the
aecond plaoe. McRa waa - riding a
beautiful, raoe and looked Ilk a winner,
but Chaae) was closing upon him rapidly
into the stretch. If looked as if Raclvo
would carry away tha money, but at the
eighth pole MacRae- broke a stirrup
and In his effort to .hang on and win
the raoe, applied the whip to his mount
and as ha did his horse dropped his
head, and No Friend whipped past him.

for th hard work he bad In keeping a
most difficult position.
Th other raoes were all of th first
claas, variety and the heaviest played
horse won In every case, sxceptlng the
laat race, Gottlelbett at I to 1 got .off
in tha first evsnt and came In without
being challenged until the end of the
stretch, when Jerry Flannlgan loomed

the stretch and darted ahead and won
easily by two lengths. -
Kelly rode Redan to victory in the
third race and the big horse was never
In danger, being a good length to the
good. Cerro Banta had a good chance to
break In at the eighth pole but F. Sul
livan didn't take advantage of th op
portunity. The pace put Prleetllke to
the bad and she fell back to fourth
place.
The fourth race belonged to Nonle, and

broke their atlrrupri during th seventh
race yesterday. Dr. Coughlan Waa so
exhausted that he fell from hla horse
when the race ended.
Ed O'Brien said that 'her would have
won easily had his horse not run too
long in one pluce. '
It waa another bad day for the bookies
and the talent came home with the roli.
Practically five fuvorltes came in for
the money yesterday. With the break
ing of two track records, the day's going
was certainly Interesting. Five favorites
maker things bad for the bookies.
The racing the past week at Irvlngton
park haa been of the highest order.
With over 600 high-class thoroughbreds
and a number of good Jockeya tha man
agement has but little trouble In pre
senting attractive programs .to tha de
voteea of the turf. A large percentage
of favorites have won during the wetk
and SO per cent ot the winners that were
not favorltea were th heavluat backed
horses In their races. In fact so many
well-backed horasa have won that most
of th bookmakers are big losers.
Tha weather man haa been on his
good behavior the entire week and as
a result the crowds have been large
every day since th admission waa re
duced to 60 cents.
8 nark, tha bay son Of Llssak (sire of
Claude, the four-time derby winner),
who won tha first rare of the present
meet ran flv and one half furlong aa

record. 6 nark baa 'had. a long reat and

ha has been vine he left th New York
circuit . .

considered merely a sprinter, 'but he
showed that ha- could carry hla . speed

Winters A Johnson Safe' one of th
strongest stables at Irvtogton. including
Bummer, wnisxy jung, uanaie unie
and Suburban Queen. Bummer held the
world's record for ' six furlongs from
1100 to 1108. he having run the distance
in 1:11 at 8t Louie. Whisky King 1 a
very htgh-clas horse, having as a I-year-old
run second in the White Plains
handicap at New York, beating, among
other high-class ones, - King Hanover
(owned by the late William C. Whitney).
As a 1-year-old be finished second to tha
mighty Hermls. winner of the Suburban
handicap and many other great raoee. A
year ago laat spring he was one of the
beat sprinters on the Southern circuit.
With, another race In him, Whisky King
will be hard to beat any distance from
four furlongs to one mile. '--x
Judge Thomas, .who finished third to
Lady Newln and Queen T. on Tueaday,
holds the' world's record for three and
one-half furlonga, 40 H seconds, made at
Butt In 1902. Th Judge and Queen
T. have run many quartera In 12 sec
onds and better.. . -
Jockey H. Smith haa not ridden Es
tado in very consistent form and his
ride on blm on Friday caused , soma
criticism. At bis best Estado Is an
unreliable horae and Smith may not be
as much to tlame as tha borae.
Colonel Van furnished one of the most
remarkable reversals of form seen- in
soma time. On Wednesday be ' ' waa
beaten 16 lengths la . a mil and 100
yards race In 1:48, tha first race being
run in 1:43. On Friday he galloped a
mile in 1:42H. - While he waa heavily
backed on Friday, it la doubtful If the
"somersault" added anything to his
owner's bank account as he was
"boosted" 1806 above his entered price.
These selling races sometimes result
more profitably to the second horse
than to the winner. When Colonel Van
was. bid vp It cost his owner 1606 to
keep him, while Legal Maxim, the aec
ond horse, drew second money, 130,' and
half the "run up," 1526.60, a total of
1282.60 to the second horse. . As first
money was 1200, it cost the owner of
Colonel Van IS05 to win the raoe.
Milas Is certainly a good one at the
Jumping game There are not many
hurdler who can take up 186 pounda
and win in a common gallop.-i -
Nonle won her eighth, race sine the
opening of- the Seattle meeting, when
she galloped home In the Webfoot
stakes. She seems to bold all tha
sprinters safe.

SaUltary Discipline Carried Too Tar.
From the Washington Post
As sn illustration of carrying military
discipline too far this story is told by
Gen. N. A. Miles: "There was a certain
colonel who. In th middle ot a cam
paign, waa seised with a sudden ardor
about hygiene. He ordered that all' th
men change their shirt at once.
Thla order was duly carried out ex
cept In the case of one company, where
the privates' wardrobe had bean piti
ably depleted. The captain of this com
pany waa Informed that none of hla
men could chang their ahtrte, since
they had only one apiece. The eolonel
hesitated a moment, and said firmly:
" Orders must be obeyed. Let Ota
men change 'shirts with eaoh other."
