By W. W. Nanshton. '
Heno, Nev., June 25. There has been
a good old fashioned handshaking bee,
with John I, Sullivan. Jim "Corbett, and
Jim Jeff rlcB as -the principal, and the
..three generations of world's champions
Miave agreed to let the dead past burjr Its

Ktanding loom1 only. ' f - r
The reconciliation was brought 'about
mainly through the efforts, of "Billy"
Muldoon, to whom the news that Sulli
van and the Jeffries party were at outs
was anything but gratifying. Muldoon
learned on his arrival nero how matters
stood, and be Immediately took upon
himself the task of smoothing things
out. ,
Muldoon as Peacemaker,
. This morning Muldoon visited the Jef
fries stronghold and had a heart to heart
talk with Jim Corbett In view of tha
results achieved, there la no necessity to
rehearse all that was said by Corbett
and Muldoon. The latter convinced Cor
bett that, after what had passed at the
Jeffries gateway on the occasion of John
JVs first visit to the camp the liand of
friendship could be extended to Sullivan
without loss of dignity.
'Barkis u WlUln.

Tm willing to make up with him, but
It must be with the understanding that
we let everything Slide. When I tackled
the old fellow the other day. I felt that
Jeffries and myself had & right to be
nore at him, and we have nothing to take
back. ' speaking ror f myself, i ll meet
him and shake hands with him on a 'let
bygones be bygones' basis. Just wait
till I run over and spook to Jeff." .
Jeffries was stripped for action," and
standing beneath the punching bag cell

Corbett but a few .minutes to explain
matters, and Jeffries much less time to
reach the conclusion that the suggestion
was a good one..
All Xi Forgiven.
' When Corbett Informed Muldoon how
matters stood, Muldoon was genuinely
pleased, In less than half an hour he
brought Sullivan td the camp In an au
tomobile!, t When Sullivan alighted he
walked over to Corbett. who was stand
ing on almost the same spot by the
front gate of the cottage where lie had
rebuffed JSullWan a- few1 days previous.
Sullivan extended his hand and said:
"Say, Jim, let us shake - handa and
forget it."
"All right John," said Corbett grip
ping the proffered hand. Then they en
gaged In a few pleasant commonplaces,
while the - snapshot - men . tripped over
their cameras in their eagerness to se

; Muldoon, Corbett, Sullivan and the
balance of Sullivan's party went over to

was being rubbed. j v
"How are you, Jim, old boy?" saii
the old gladiator, and Jim responded
just as cheerily, turning on the slab

have spent a good deal of their time

punched the bag and shadow boxed,

many of these boutless days Bob, who
prides himself on his present condi
tion, will be taking on weight again.
It doesn't follow, however, that be
cause Jeffries doesn't tox he doesn't
Work sufflcienly hard. There are dif
ferences of opinion, for that matter,
as to the advisability of the big' fel
low's training as hard as lie Is doing
at present. ..Jim Corbett, who was ap
prehensive on account of Jeffries' appe
tite for road work while at Roward
ennan, is satisfied, however, that Jeff
ries will not overtax himself. , "
What Corbet and Berger Say.
. Said Corbett:
"There is no fear of this fellow leav
ing his fight on the, road, He Is fully
alive to the importance of tempering
his work and he will lay off occasion
ally between now and the Fourth, , This
arternoon,, ror instance, he Is a-olna-
fishing." -.;': ,'.',;.-:'.;. ---.. .
Manager Sam Berger thinks as Cor
bett thinks. Berger la not anxious on
Jefrs account but he would like to
see Jim go in for more boxing' than he
is doing at present Sam Is philosopher
enough to know, however, that Jeffries
will box when the whim takes him and
at no other time.
Plain 'Truth About Jeff. ' ,f .
The plain truth of the matter la that
Jeffries does not like boxing, at least
not the , stilted kind that Eoea with
course of training.
Jeffries admitted today, "while talk
ing to Sullivan, that he was drowsv and
had no particular sest for work.- - .
"They keDt me awake until mMntrht

, The Moving Picture Matter.
Incidentally, other people beside Jef
fries v were kept out of bed "over the
sale , of the moving pictures' The
truth of the story Is that an agreement
was reached several days ago by which
Jeffries and RIckard were to sell their
Interests of the Vitograph company.
The- Western Film company, of . San
Francisco, which claims, to have pur
chased Johnson's interest, made a deter,
mined effort to upset the arrangements
and buy out Jeffries and RIckard. The
Western company failed, but It forced
the Vitograph people to boost the price
originally agreed upon from $76,000 to
$100,000, ..-r , -. , r .. . ; :
There were ' many conferences ' last

'Sperld Dispatch to Tbt Journal I .
Reno, Nev., June 25. -Johnson's Initial
workout this afternoon' at Rick's resort
brought into Nevada the first wave of
excitement in sporting circles since the
interstate shift and the entire .city of
Reno was alive with the tingling sen
sation that promises to last until the
big day. The air la electrlo with the
feeling,, and on .the street comers It's

coat ripping demonstrations.
The christening- of the 1 camp was
marked by the continuous cloud of dust
extending to Reno which the overworked
automobiles and teams made by a fran
tic procession 'fuly an hour before the
champion stepped On the untried planus.
Snorts from every realm, gathered at
Ricks and chatted In groups about the
porch, by the platform and around the
barn. The arrival of the veteran1 jonn
U and the revered Muldoon on the scene
caused a preliminary stir, and with 'evir
dent pleasure the pair strolled anout
shaking hands with the prize ring pow
era that be, while the lesser factions
nodded heads and exchanged remarks of
praise and awe.
. Johnson Punches the Bag.
At S o'clock Johnson made his way
from the hotel to the open air ring, ac
companied by Al Kaufman, Dave Mills,
Jack Gayer, Cotton; and Monaban. " All
ere attired for sparring. " Under the
glare i of the sun the platform was
veritable furnace. With streaming faces
the spectators pressed close to the
rones and around the punching bag
stand, 'where the Champion posed for
pictures.
The great smoke began the warming
up process with theliew bag." He teased
it for a few moments and then punched
It with sharp, vicious Jabs that seemed
to possess little effort. After five min
utes of steady drumming Johnson let
uo on the bag. grinned and said, "now,
then." One of the spectators found the
bag quite suddenly, but couldn't hold It
The spectator is minus ms glasses.
; ; The Ball Throwing Stnnfc
After- the' mishap Johnson ,. and , his
Crew stepped Into, the ring ' and spent
several minutes In throwing around the
big leather ball.: Although his trainers
began to puff and stream with perspir
ation, the champion did not begin to
mop his brow until the ball had made
many rounds. All during the , warming
up Johnson grinned, and seemed in' the
best, of spirits.:." "Every now, and Jhen
he would glance over his shoulder and
shoot some Jibe at the bystanders.. : He
stopped ,' the warming, up with , the an
nouncement: "Now, we'll box."
Boxing Begins.
Professor Burns called time proceed-'
ings and Johnson took on Al Kaufman
for four rounds. . The mix was from
start to finish a demonstratfon of John
son's; marvelous blocking and guard.
The first two rounds went rather slowly
and Oaslly; the"' boxers ' working grad
ually' to the. real article.. In the third
round the bout became exciting. Big
Al's rushes were more frequent and oc
casionally his glove, came close to the
smoke, who opened, up a bit, however,
until he brought blood from the white
man's nose. ;
The champion " amused the crowd
considerably 'with his frequent grins, as
he easily turned aside Kaufman's furi
ous onslaughts. . From the beginning
Kaufman seemed in poor wind, and was
puffing like a pump at the fourth round,
he pfrsplrlng spectators created f
mumble by their criticism that sounded
the chord of approval. "
Young Cotton was next before , the
champion. The mix went three rounds
and Cotton showed throughout his cour.
age and spirit by surging against John
son's mixture of blocking and playful
blows.
With that never fading grin and a
constant run of humor, the champion
played with his sparring partner. He
aroused Cotton's rushes at intervals by
;t;ome on, kid; put it over."
It was not long before the young ne
gro dripped with the claret. At the
opening of the round his condition made
the champion grln. :
,'Tha last mix was a short one with
Dave Mills, and the! best part of it was
devoted to the 'black champion s play
fulness, lie let Mills beat with might
and main at his stomach, and when the
blows did not come fast enough to
suit him, he would cry, "What's the
matter, Mills? Can't you see I'm all
in? Come on, come on." v. , ;
At one Interval he brought a shout of
laughter from the crowd by the re
mark "Altitude, Mills." T .
While Mills rested a round. Manager
Hart announced the afternoon's work
would end with, the next,. The last
round was, ended with a gentle slap of
the champion's glove oh Mills' face. A
hearty handclapplng greeted the call of
time, and, deeply. Impressed, the throng
made vlts way back Into town.
, , ue morning's wore
Although the gathering was not verv
large It was a good one, considering the
difficulty in procuring conveyances to
the camp, which is quite a distance
from Keno.
The champion arose early this mom.
lng and after amusing his trainers in
Ricks' barn by his overflowing humor,
he called for road work. A good eight
miles on the Lawton Springs road was
reeled, off and the champion returned
to the camp streaming with perspira
tion. He spent tho remainder of tho
morning, after being rubbed down, in
restlnsr up for the strenuous work of
the afternoon. ,
Change for the Better.
So far the change from the ocean
resort has seemed to work nothing but
good for him. Although it was ru-,
mored that' he .would feel the differ
ence in altitude, the big smoke stated,
while munching a peach this morning:
"This altitude , business 1s a Joke.
Why,; I feel fine, even better than I
did at the beach. I think' the effect
of the oceah air has a way of. making
me feel thick, anyways Thi Joint don't
make me feel that way; at all.
Zn Bis Honrs of Ease.

calls them, by- name. ' Once in a while
the remark comes; "Ain't you enjoy
ing .yourself? : Kick in while you've got

least worried 'concerning the coming
