Newspaper Page TextREADY FOR THE BIG FIGHT 1- ... Jeffries and Fitz Discussed Th6 Baseball Games Notes. A. 0. U. W. AND i u DEGREE OF HONOR We Furnish the Lot and Three-fourths of the Money in ii out i' The following signed statement was given W. W. Naughton, the well-known sporting writer, by , Champion Jeffrie last Tuesday. It shows the boilermaker's confidence tn himself: "Am mighty glad to get back to Oak- - bind as a place for the conclusion of my training work. Hirbln Springs is f eplendid place, but" trifle too warm at '"this time of year for the kind of work " that I want to do. The last two weeks It WM awfully warm up there. When at work the heat never usea 10 uuuin ana much, but an hour or two after- .wardUthe perspiration would start and keep op until I began to fear ill results. "" "I weigh 21S pounds today, and in this coot weather expect to experience no trouble In reducing six or eight pounds during the week. My gymnasium work this afternoon was as hard as any that Z hare undertaken on, a stretch since commencing'' at the springs. Oh, but X feel fine tonight! Wny4 I could go into -: the ring tomorrow and put up the fight ' ef my life. rWhat do I think about the betting on tha fight? Well, I haven't thought anything about it yet and, to tell the , truth, I donjpcare much either, What 1 . want to da W to win the fight, and that purpose la occupying all my attention at present However, from what I have - beard people aay, I suppose that they will make me a favorite. "JAMES J. JEFFRIES." j- - FITZ WILL. BE CAREFUL. ' If the boxing indulged In by Bob Fits ' Simmons afforded any Inkling of the kind , Of fight ha intends to put up against Jeffries, It la safe to prophesy that the Cornlahman will battle along careful lines when he tries to reclaim the cham pionship from the burly boUermaker. ,To begin- with, Fltasimmons has a full aixe 24-foot ring staked off In the canvas coered gymnasium wherein he exercises at Skaggs Springs. - "That la the else of the ring we are to fight in," explaina Fltasimmons, when drawing attention to the' roped space in , . which ha doea his practice boxing. "The , articles call for a 24-foot ring, and the dub managers must provide one." This seems an Intimation that its "'' aimmons considers a 24-foot inclosure ' Quite. small enough when striving against tha man an Inch or two taller and prob ably 60 . pounds heavier than himself. JFita'a work with the gloves affords sub - stantlal proof, however, that he regards tha regulation slxe ring a proper, thing, la. which to have championship fights. Ha sits in one angle of the roped square, his bUj hands encased in gloves of ox ' blood, hue. All the other corners of the ring are occupied, -MianK unran ana .."Soldier" Wilson. Each of the Cornlsh ,man'a sparring partners weal lemon colored sparring mittens and it looks as If Bob is about to engage in a battle royal with his three stalwart adversaries. He goes at them in turn, however, and pars three three-minute rounds with each, taking; the usual one-minute rest between rounds. " George Dawson, Flts's trainer, has this to aay of his man: 'He is looking as well as ever he did, and ha is living up to his looks In his work. His wind la good,' and he can put in a couple of hours of fast exercise without showing any particular signs of fatigue. , He boxes carefully and doea not 'allow his sparring partners to punch him around to amuse visitors, as I am told ha aaed to do when training for Jeffries before. -Tha man who lays a glove on Fitaaimmons now has to have a quick aya and a quick hand, and he la lucky If ha escapes a counter which will make Ills Jaw ache." ' Jeffries is a steady favorite in the bet ting, being quoted at Harry Corbetfs last night at 2 to L The Bale of seats promises to be a phenominal one. When the box ofhee closed, last night, after ' being open only two days, there waa over . SSOOO in the sack. This sale., surpasses anything ever known in pugilism on the Pacific Coast. ''..' HOW.
