front of the training quarters, went
Into his cottage and stayed thore,
bolng in bed and sleep before nine
o'clock.
Expects Punishment.
It has been the opinion ot thoso
who h&vo seon both men work and
Jeffries himself has admitted as much
to close friends that whatever the
final result ot the battle the white
man is duo to receive a lot ot pun
ishment In the early rounds. Sharkey
hit him hard and often, Fltzsimmons
and Corbett did tho same. No one
has arisen to dispute the cleverness
of Johnson; and Jeffries, least ot all,
has not blinded himself to the clev
erness of the man whom ho expects to
conquer, but If he winks at the
thought of having his face bruised in
uplto ot the pickling solution he has
been using ou It for several weeks
past, he gave no outward olgn of It.
Today be Is as unconcerned as though
today's program called for a fishing
expedition, instead of a contest which
means either e. pedestal inscribed
"Undefeated Champion" In Flstlana's
hall of famo or oblivion In tho dis
card ot broken Idols.
Slept Soundly Last Night.
According to tho faithful Farmer
Burns, who has been Jeffries' own
Swiss guard, the big fellow was sound
asleep within ten minutes after he
had retired. Whllo. ho slumbered and
wholly unbeknown to him, Jeffries
and his entire training camp was pa
trolled by a gtard of trusted retain
ers, to Intercept any fanatic who
might bavo sought' to Injure the
sleeper.
Even boforo tho champion awoke
a party of his handlers wero speeding
toward the arena at Reno to put the
quarters In shape and get In readiness
all paraphernalia which will be used
In tho ring corner.
Jeffries was In high spirits after
oreaKiasi, apparently giving no
thought to tho afternoon's contest.
Ho joked with a number of close
friends, but religiously refrained
from discussing tho fight.
tho ring was adjusted to the satis
faction ot tho Jeffries crowd by
stretching tho red canvas on which
Jeffries had done most ot his box
ing during hla training.
How Over Picture Stand.
Tho first row developed when $40
and $45 ticket holders discovered
that directly Lbovo and over tholr
seats a moving picture stand had
been erected, the stand cutting off
all view from at least GOO peoplo who
became enraged when the manage
ment gave them no satisfaction and
threatened to tear .the structure
down. To prevent violence, a spe
cial guard was placed around the
stand and Ulckard started In senrch
of Qleason, who Is reported to havo
given permission for tho erection of
the stand.
Among the celebrities to arrlvo
early wero Nat Goodwin, Bat Mns-
terson, Billy Muldoon, John L. Sul
llvau, Jack McAullffe, Abo Attell,
Eddie Graney. Hugh Mcintosh.
Tommy Burns. "Big Tim" Sullivan,
Harry H. Hicks, Jeff Heard. Bill
Lang, Bob Fltzsimmons, Frank Fo
garty, the monologlst, Battling Nel
son, Andy Craig, tho Chicago sport
ing man, Lou Houseman, Sam Lang
ford and many others.
Picture Stand Removed.
Shortly beforo 1 o'clock a band en
tered; the ring and aroused Intense
enthusiasm by playing "America
and "Dixie." The great crowd
stood up and waved small American
flags.
All persons approaching the gates
carrying bottles or suspicious pack
ages were stopped and not allowed
to enter until after dlschardlng
them.
The angry protest of those whoso
view was obstructed by the moving
picture stand had Its effect, a squad
ot deputies being detailed to tear It
down. When tho first pleco of
timber yielded to the blows of a ham
mer, a cheor went up.
At 1:05 Tex Rlckard announced
that there were 50.000 peoplo out
side clamoring for admission. Rlck
ard stated that room could not bo
found for all ot them.
At 1:15 p. in. the band left tho
ring to give the picture man an op
portunity to photograph tho crowd.
BETTING 10 TO 6
(Continued from Page 1.1
FIGHTERS LATE IN APPEARING
(Continued from Page 1.)
Instead of 1101,000, each man hav
ing been given a $10,000 bonus. He
also stated that the purse of $101,000
after each man bad paid and $10,000
would bo split 80 per cent to wlaner
and 40 per cent to tho loser.
The original articles of agreemont
call for a 76 and 52 split, but a fow
days ago the fighters agreed to tho
CO and 40 per cent division.
At 1:35 Rlckard sent ward to the
fighters dressing rooms asking them
to como to tho ring at once. The
houso, it la said, amounts to $250,-000.
Rock Springs Coal.
Two hundred tons of Rock Springs
coal has been nlroady ordered by
Bedford people thoso peoplo were
"wise; thoy will have warm homes this
'winter. There is still timo to order
'' the 'coal at the present price. See

fighting game have journeyed over
land and sea to tho undressed lum
ber shrine of the great god Wallop,
which, reared on a sage brush plain,
a mile and a half outside tho city,
will this 'afternoon be the scene of
what promises to be the greatest
battle between two human beings
that the world has seen since Chris
tianity drove the gladiators from the
Roman forum, and gun powder dis
armed the armored knights of the
halcyon days of chivalry.
Big Purso Fought For.
A purse of $101,000, or the win
ner's 75 per cent of It, thousands of
dollars In moving plcturo bonuses
and the honors of heading the
world's list of physically mighty men
is the lure which sends tho two
modern gladiators at each other.
Contrary to general expectations,
the shortening of the odds this morn
ing failed to materialize and unless
tho Johnson money appears before
noon there may be a lengthening.
When Tim Corbett's pool room
opened this morning tho price was
10 to 6. Even money was offered
that Jeffries does or does not win
InBlde of twenty rounds. Tho lat
ter proposition seemed to meet with
more favor than the general result
betting, It being figured that Jef
fries' chance of winning would be
minimized if tho battle went beyond
twenty rounds, but that up to that
period he would be the most logical
candidate for victory.
Betting on Results.
Two good Johnson bets wero re
corded this morning, ono being $700
to $1,000 and tho other $075 to
$1,000.
Andy Craig of Chicago, who re
cently bet $10,000 to $0,500 qn Jef
fries Is hero with an additional $20,-
000, but has not been ablo to place
much of it.
Tho day opened bright and cool,
but tho prospects are it will bo a hot
afternoon and that tho fighters and
spectators seated below tho level of
tho entrances will suffor consider
ably.

to take caro of any who may suc

excitement whllo in tho arena will
bo ready for duty by noon.

Every soat In tho arena had been
Bold by midnight. Tho gato will
probably net $250,000. All through
tho night special trains arrived from
tho East and West.
Tho betting was given a now anglo
whon Johnson bettors offered $25 to
$100 that tho negro would win ln
Bldo of nineteen rounds, but found
Soveral trains duo to arrlvo soon

JOHNSON IS HAPPY
(Continued from Pnw 1.)
and from his antics ono would hnvo
thought that he was preparing to
start on a picnic. Whatever his son
tlmcnts tonight, thcro was no ques
tion nbout It that today broko as
tho most longed-for In tho life of the
dusky champion. Whatuvor exports
and critics may think, thoro Is not tho
shadow of doubt but that In John
son's mind the thought of defeat was
entirely eliminated.
As was to be expected In a camp
full of colored men, Rick's this morn
ing was all bustle and excitement.
Everyone was nt fever heat except
tho champion, who lolled back In a
big chair with Imperial dignity nnd
ease-, and enjoyed ovory movo of tho
sceno of which ho was tho contor.
Shortly after rising he Indulged In
a little light oxercUo nnd had a rub,
after which ho declared that ho felt
In perfect shape.
Shows Himself Off.
Yesterday was a gala day, for Jack.
His good nature and his willingness
to bathe in tho limelight caused his
camp to be the Mecca of thousands
of fight fans of both sexes nnd for
several hours Johnson remained In
view of all who wished to havo a
look. Whatever else may bo said of
Johnson there is no denying that ho
Is surcharged with that unfailing good
nature and chronic optimism which
has come to be most closely associat
ed with the old timo Southern darkles.
Late In tho afternoon, after tho
camera men and moving picture peo
ple had their final shot at him, John
son retired to his quarters and a
guard was thrown about tho place to
keep away all but tho small coterie
of close friends who had elected to
spend "tho night beforo the battle"
with tho dusky champion.
Promises Sensation.
This morning Billy Dolany took
Johnson for a half hour's secret In
terview and final review of tho plan
of the fight. Johnson has all along
promised a sensation for thoso who
havo been expecting him to run away
from the big grizzly's rushes and It
would not surprise mo In tho least
wero ho to carry tho fight to Jeffries
after he has had a couplo of rounds
to test out Jim's attack. Jack has
supremo confidence, iu his ability to
avoid and block Jcffrlec' swings, and

By tho way tho Medford bunch Is

got within 40 foot of n bar lot nlono

Thoro was n great reunion In Reno
this morning when the final members
of the Medford contingent drifted In.

already met old time friends whom I
have not seon In years. From all
corners of tho world they hnvo como
just to seo the big doings which nro
scheduled to start shortly. Reno has
become for n day tho clearing houso
of tho world.
If the big fight proves to ho worth
tho admission foe nil will go homo
satisfied. As for myself I feel re
patd for what tlmo and expenso I
nm out Just to ho a part of today's
crowd and to rub elbows with a
typical western hunch. Every na
tionality on earth seems to ho hero
and there aro celebrities without end.
Reno Is at tho top notch of her
ladder of fame today and she scouts
to realize It. She Is having ono great
glorious celebration of tho Fourth.
Tho crowd hns greatly overtaxed uc-
