SALEM, OREGON, TUESDAY, JUNE 28, 1010. No. 147 JEFF AND ipg on the Final Touches Fvaratory t0 tne Great Baiind Both Will Finish their . Work Probably Friday. ODDS ARE IN FAVOR OF JEFF Dopcsters Aro Busy Figuring Out Results, and in Jeff's Camp They Claim If the Fight Is Not Settled in the Early Rounds Jell's Staying Qualities Aro Certain to Slake Him a Winner Johnson's Friends Confident, But "Want Big Odds on Bets. UNITED ritnSS LEASED WIEB. (By Max Balthasar.) Mono Springs Training Camp, Re no, Nev., Juno 28. Jeffries' trotted out of camp today, and, with the cus tomary following of trainers, streaked out over the Nevada roads for a 10 mllo hike. It had been announced that ho would box during the morn ing, and do his road work -in the af ternoon. As UBual, having a dislike for a set program, the big fellow vetoed the program, and reversed it, declaring ho would box after re turning from his long hike over the road. It is expected ho will ham mer his sparring partners this af ternoon. Jeff has been trying himself out at a, boxer. x Thoother day Sam Bergor tried Io "get fresh" with tho big fellow. Jeff slipped one to Sam's Stomach, and Sammy was very sick for awhlle'. Ho denies that he had to be held up to keep from taking tho count, but he had to go to bed for a few hours before he could eat any breakfast. With tho feeling of optimism in spired by tho near-grouch, the dope sters are showing the greatest activi ty they have exhibited since the prep arations for tho battle began. Bob Armstrong has pulled tho dur ation of the battle down to six rounds with Jeff being good enough, if Johnson will allow tho white fighter to get close, to have a nice Inside chance to cop it off in the first period. Farmer Burns Is more conservative. His conservatism is not based on doubt of tho ability of his idol to beat the big black, but is tho result of his inborn conservative spirit. Jeff, he declares, will win within 15 rounds, and if the fight goes longer than that ho is willing to bet his clothes the negro will bo so badly punished that, ho will already havo lost tho fight. "If it goes 15 rounds," said tho Farmer, "it will simply resolve Itself Into a case of endurance, and If thero is one thing Jim has on Johnson, It is endurance." Roger Cornell,, argues along the lines laid down by Burns. He admits that the earlier rounds may go against Jeffries a trifle, but that with one-third of the battle over provided neither man is badly hurt, the tldo will turn in Jeffries' favor. (By Tip Wright.) Rick's Training. Camp, Reno, Nev., June 28. Jack Johnson, six days before the big battleMs Just a big, good-natured darkey out on a frolic. His smile Is, on the job all the time; he Is Jovial; and, apparently the loast worried man in his camp Js the dusky fighter himself. That he is light-hearted was shown, when, nfter his hard work yesterday, ho took out his 'cello, seated near tho piano and played frolicsome airs until midnight. Ho went to bed happy, and today was ready for the training grind again, apparently fresh and full of spirit. Johnson's work Is deceptive. I watched him carefully yesterday when ho boxed his ten rounds under the hot Nevada sun. Most of tho time be ,was on the defensive, save for an occasional left counter or right cross to tho chin, when bis sparring partners beoamo over confident of. their ability to Jand, Ha did it easl-j ly, apparently with about s much effort as when he was sawing tho bow across the big fiddle strings That is the way ho works. Some times' his work is so slow that it looks slovenly. Sometimes tho big fighter appears to bo loafing. But ho works so easily that it is hard to comprehend how much effort thero is behind his careless motions. It is always noticeable, however that no matter how little ho appears to bo working, his sparring partners are steaming and puffing, and are doing their best to land on the big fellow, without having tho least effect, un less ho lets a slam go through, just to show the crowd how Utile big fel lows llko Al. Kaufman can jolt him His handlers are confident. There is about $7000 in tho camp, outside tho sums that Jack may wager him self, to back the big black. The trainers, however, are playing tho wise bettors, and are not putting up tho cash just yet. There Is considerable comment in camp on the odds. Tho followers hope to see the odds go to 10 to 1 or even longer before the fight starts. Among the enthusiastic backers nf the negro are Frank Sutton, of Pitts burg, who has $3000 that ho wants to place. He expects to get 10 to 4 o METHODISTS INVADE THE CITY FOUNDED BY DOWIE AND VOL IVA, HEAD OF THE ZIONISTS, DECLARES WAR ON THEM. t'BsiM aa&rtn ssaiij aaiiNn Chicago, June 28. A war between tho Methodists and Genera! Overseer Glenn Vollva id reported to have started today, following "the dedica tion of a modest chapel by tho Meth odists inside tho precincts of Zlon City. "Wo will fight this invasion to the death," Voliva Jsfepofted tb have said, when, he heard of 'the dedica tion. f- - ' Bishop McDowell and a large num ber of Methodist dignitaries assisted in tho ceremonies. They say they aro in Zlon to stay and grow. The inde pendents in Zlon hailed the advent of tho Methodists warmly, and sent a delegation of elders to tho dedication of tho chapel. The new church will have the backing of business interests outside, nnd Overseer Voliva has tho battle of his life cut out if he undertakes to exterminate tho Invaders, according to the Methodists. Tho Methodists dedicated their hapel in tho forenoon yest)e(rday, and In the afternoon Vollva, speak ing at the tabernacle, hurled defi ance. This draws the lines of bat tle clearly, and some interesting de velopments may bo expected. CHARLTON TAKEN BEFORE JUDGE Jersey City, N. J., Juo 28. Port er Charlton, confessed wife murder er,' was arraigned 'before Judge Blair in tho court of oyer and terminer here today. He was romanded to the custody of the sheriff until July 8. His attorneys state that no attempt would bo made to secure his release on habeas corpus or a lunacy writ. Charlton didn't appear interested In the proceedings. On the way to court he objected to having hand cuffs on his wrists, and they were removed. Attorneys for Charlton asked a delay of tho court order fol lowing the arraignment, in order to gain an opinion to learn the attitude of the federal government concerning Charlton's extradition to Italy. D lay was also asked pending tho re port of the alienists in the case. F .Floyd Clark, chief counsel for Charlton declared today that he did not believe his client would bo re turned to Italy, where Mrs. Charlton was killed. He said ho based this be lief upon the facts In the case of one Caldwell, a witness In the celebrated suit for the estate of tho Duko of Portland, who fled to America, wss pronounced insane, and was not re turned to England. i- o Pauline is tho name of tho new Whlto House eow.
