This Question came np for discussion
the other night In a place where the
followers of the ring congregate and
It soon developed that there was dif
ference of opinion-on the subject Be
fore the argument became general some
one suggested that a world's -champion-shin
between Jamas Jeffries and James '
Johnson would lay over everything else
In tha Queenaberry's entertainment.
"But Jeffries won't fight. What's
the use of talklna about a match that
can't ba made?" aald one.
He may break back again If John
son defeata Burna," insisted the man
who DroDosed the Jeffries-Johnson
match.
Anyhow, it was tha sense or tne gatn-
erlng that a Jeffries-Johnson meeting
wss too remote a possibility to be
worth talking about and other combi
nations were disoussad.
A good many thought a Tommy
Burns-Jack Johnson fight would create
more Interest than any other match that v
could be arranged, but there were sev
eral who disagreed. , '
Burns Too Big Choice.' 1
One of - tha arguments used against
the event was that thinking sports
would coneeda Burns much of a choice

difficult to fA the publlo to regard
the affair with any ahow of anthuslaam.
