THE S DISSIPATION AND JEFFRIES DOWN JACKSON Poor Old Peter No Match for the Young Cali- " fornia The Olympic Club’s Uneven Contest Ended in Three Short Rounds. “He may have seen better days” is| the title of a song that a number of Peter Jackson's old admirers sang last evening when on the cars on their way from the fistic entertainment at Wood ward's Pavilion. : | Poor old Peter was put to rest by | Jeftries, the powerful young heavy- | weight from = Southern California, | shortly after the commencement of the third round. | It was virtually a walkover for Jef- | fries, who found little or no difficulty | @ hitting Jackson when and where he | pleased. The colored man was ph | round Delane~, Giant. took in the situation at a glance, and moving quickly from the center of the ring between the fighters he motioned Jeffries to his corner, and while Jack- on still remained oblivious to the sur- oundings he awarded the contest to Jeffries. In a few words the fight can be told. Jackson’s blows in the first round did not carry sufficient force to hurt a fly, and Jeffries smiled when Peter put his left glove on the nose. In the second who was the white man’s adviser, ordered Jeffries to sail in and finish the job quickly. This Jeffries did, much to the sur- prise of many people, who expected to | | body. ROUND 2—Jackson came up confidently and soon swung his lert, without effect, and then tried his right with the same result. Jeffries. rushed in and they ex- changed lefts and rights on the head and The blows affected Jackson, for when he led with his left a second later he necarly lost his balance, but Jeffries was too slow to take advantage of the opening afforded. Jeffries landed a hard right on Jackson's face and swung his left around Peter’s neck. Jackson cleverly ducked another left lead for the head. Jeffries missed with his right, but landed his left with a heavy swing on Jackson's ar. Both led the left simultaneously, ach landing square on the ‘other’s nose. Jeffries rushed and Peter jumped away. Fighting at close quarters, Jackson put in- twice the number of blows, but’they did not seem to.have much effect on the big Los Angeles lad. Jeffries rushed in again and Jackson ducked away beauti- fully, showing some of his ~old-time cleverness, repeating the trick a second later. Jackson planted a hard jab on Jef- fries’ face with his left. Jackson tries another straight left and misses and Jef- fries hooked him hard on the jaw with w his right. Jackson fell backward on the floor, trying to save himself with his out- stretched hands. ‘ed down mine | seconds without attempting to rise, then got up and went down again for nine seconds, when the gong sounded the end of the round, and one of his seconds. Young Mitchell, rushed over and helped him up and assisted him to his corner. ROUND 3—Every one was satisfled then that it was all off with Jackson, but nevertheless he came up gamely for the third round. Jeffries rushed in, anxious to finish his man. He landed a hard left swing on the body and repeated the blow. Jackson was unable to resist Jeffries’ terrific rushes and fought back feebly, stumbling around the ring. Jeffries rushed him to the ropes, landing left and right swings on the head, Jackson almost falling through the ropes, and leaning feebly against a post, dropping both his hands. Here was where Jeffries showed the instincts of a gentleman, for instead of rushing up in brute fashion as a Shar- key or a Green would have done, and punishing_the already defeated Peter more, he humanely stepped away and let him gradually sink against the post and ropes for suvport. The referee, seeing that Jackson was dome for, raised his hand to stop the fight, and awarded it to Jeffries. who walked 'to his corner and then stepped out of the ring, cheered as victors always are. Jackson was able to_stagger to his own corner with some help, and a few minutes afterward walked out of the ring unaided, a de- feated but not a dishonored champion. Immediately after the fight Jeffries ed a contract with Ed Homan to nightly sparring exhibitions at the FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 23 seats usurped by those who only held dollar seats. ’ Seeing that their chances of gaining their rights would only end in trouble Captain Gillen had the doors leading to the balcony on the main floor thrown | open, and many saw the fight standing | up. The police handled.the immense throng admirably. The great struggle | to get inside as witnessed at the fight | between Sharkey and Choynski was lacking, as ticket holders were formed in line, and in an orderly manmer en- tered the pavilion. A lage squad of po- lice in command of Captain Gillen and Sergeant Campbell handled the im- mense gathering, and it is due to their efforts that order prevailed. —_— JEFFRIES A COMING MAN. He Is Now Anxious to Bind a Match With the Hard- Hitting Marine. After the bout Jeffries was seen in | his dressing room. The only mark on | him that would have led anyrone to be- | lieve he had taken a prominent part in a fistic engagement was a slight cut over the eye, ‘which he sustained while training and which was reopened in | the bout. When interviewed after the fight the young giant modestly referred the re- porter to his trainer and manager, Billy Delaney. The latter wore a smile | of contentment which broadened into a | huge grin when he was congratulated |on his new champion’s fine showing. | “Jeffries went into the ring weighing | 216 .pounds,” said Delaney, “much light- {er than he ‘has ever fought before. Despite the many stories of Jackson's | cleverness he was confident he would | win. | “In the first round he sparred with | his dusky antagonist to get a line on | him, but when he saw that he was just | as clever he determined . .to make it a | short fight. | “At'the end of the first round I saw | that Jackson could not hurt him, and instructed Jeffries to go at him. Many of Jackson’s blows whizzed around Jef- fries’ head, which showed that he still' ! had hitting power. Although he was ATA POOR PETERS LAST STAGCER As Big Jim Jeffries Advanced, Referee McDonald in Mercy Threw Up His Hand, Consigning the White Pugilist to Victory and His Dusky Antagonist to Oblivion. " cally unable to either resist attack or give punishment. As The Call said yesterday, “if Jef- fries will sail in and fight from the| sound of the gong he should certainly defeat Jackson in short order.” The Olympic Club did not act wisely—that is, according to the opinions of the best judges of pugilism and pugilists—when it matched Jack- son against a man who handicapped him in every particular excepting pos- sibly in science. It is a well known fact that Jackson was a physical and financial wreck when he arrived in this city from Eng- land and during the past year of his| life he was continually in a maudlin state, the result of his love for strong H9S0r the Olympic Club did not take | into consideration when it matched Jackson to fight Jeffries that it was possibly taking a life in its hands. The directors must h looked at the match from a pecuniary point of view, otherwise they, as supposed judges of athletic form, would certain- iy have informed Jackson when he asked for a fight that the club could not risk its reputation by matching a big and powerful man iike Jeffries against an opponent who had wrecked by dissipation a constitution which had been several years ago physically sound. . But the match was made, and to fool the public on the wretched condi- tion of Jackson a physiclan was en- gaged to visit the training quarters of the pugilist and report to the club the condition in which he found the men. This is what the club’s doctor said after having made a “thorough” exam- ination of Jackson’s anatomy; that was two days before the colored pugilist met an inglorious defeat: 000000000000 0000O0 By request of the Olympic Club, I calicd on Mr. Jeffries at his train- ing euarters. the Rellance Club building, Oakland, and found him in the pink of condition. 1 also called upon Mr. Jackson, and found him much improved since my first examination, which was two weeks ago. No two men_could be more unlike physically. Mr. Jeffries has a wonderful muscular develop- ment: huge bundles of muscle stand out prominently -at every movement of any portion of hfs hody.. Mr. Jackson's development is superb. especially of those mus- cles he requires the most. They do not stand out too prominently, however. * consider the two men fn the best of condition. They will enter the ring fit to make the battle of their lives. DR. CHARLES E.

As a judge of a man’s physical condi- {ion he 1is sadly v . considering | Jackson's performance. } The club can in _a Ineasure con- gratulate itself that Jeffries did not kill Jackson by a punch in the stomach when the last-named fighter was lean- ing helplessly against the ropes with his hands hanging down by his side.

The fight in detail is as follows: Jeffries was the first to enter the ring | promptly at 9 o'clock, accompanied by | his seconds, Billy Delaney, “Spider Kelly and De Witt Van Court. He took | the northwest corner of the ring, near- | est the dressing rooms, the same one he occupied when he fought Choynski Fighters are generally, a little supersti- tious, and when a certain “corner” is | lucky for them they like to take the | position again. Jeffries looked his weight—said to be about 210 pounds—when he threw his | dressing robe. He was not greeted with | any great measure of applause. Far different was the reception accorded Jackson, who stepped through the ropes | five minutes later. The crowd- yelled | itself hoarse for “Peter the Great,” who bowed to the right and left as he walked across the roped inclosure, grinning from ear to ear, and took his seat diagonally opposite Jeffries. Jackson was seconded by “Young Mitchell,” Patsy Corrigan and Vincent | White. His weight was stated to be 195 | pounds, and when stripped he appeared well trained, but who could tell whether or not his dusky frame was undermined | by the excesses of the past seven years? | Jackson wore long white trunks and a black:--belt. Jeffries had on blue | trunks with a red and white belt. | Jackson also had two large kidney plasters on _the small of his back, almost hidden except to those close to the ringside, by his trunks and belt. The referee was James McDonald, the famous baseball umpire, who had been’ selected by representatives of the prin- _eipals a week previous to the fight. The men agreed between themselves previous to entering the ring not to hit in the breakaway from a clinch when both arms were free. Eleven minutes were spent by the men and their sec- onds putting on the gloves and arrang- ing other ‘preliminary details, and at eleven minutes past 9 the gong sounded ROUND 1—Jeffries was the first to lead, after half a minute's lively fiddling and stepping around in the center of the ring. He fell short with a straight left, Jack- son jumping away. There was a notice- time when he fought Choynski. Then he kept his guard well. up and fought at the start almost enlh‘el{ on the defensive. Last night he kept his guard low and his left arm well extended, playing for an openlni Jackson kept sticking out his long left, crowding Jeffries around the ring.

Jéffries swung | his left hard for the head and missed. | Jackson landed his right on the boay, left on_the nose and right on the bodly ag: quickly after. Jeffries swung around Jackson's 'neck and they clinched. Jeffries ran into Juckson's extended left | and Jackson jabbed him quickly_ again with the same hand in_the nose. ~Jerfries landed a hard left in Jackson’s stomach.

The con- testants agreed not to hit in clinches, but to protect themselves in ¢he breakaway. 3 This bout only lasted one round, on account of the rank faking of Lewis, who, after receiving a few light taps, went to the floor twice,.and was finally counted out. The audience hooted at and particularly the cowardice of Lewis. Parker appeared well trained and boxed in lively fash- ion, but he had little chance to show his cleverness. o SR THE FIGHTERS SUED. Jackson and Jeffries Served With Summonses by Deputy Sheriffs. The Sheriff’s office was out in full force at the fight last evening.to serve summonses on both the fighters. 'One suit was that of Joseph Accicisco, who tried yesterday, through his attorney, Alfred Clarke, toget an injunction from the Superidr Court to prevent the battle taking place. Accicisco claims that the contest was in violation of the statutes prohibiting prize-fighting, but failed to find any Superior Judge who would stop the contest. The summonses served by the Deputy Sheriffs require Jackson and Jeffries to appear in the Superior Court within ten days to show cause why they should not be punished for com- mitting a felony. Two summonses were served by.the Sheriff’s deputies on Jeffries in suits brought in the Justice Court. One was instituted by G. W. McCord, who claims that he nursed Jeffries while the latter was sick with pneumonia several months ago and that he received but $10 out of $100 that was due him. He claims a balance of $90.. President Newhall of the Olympic admitted summons in this case, as well as in one brought by J. J. Rauer for a small amount. e .— TICKET-HOLDERS BARRED. Captain Gillen Refuses: Admis- sion to Many Hundreds of - Disappointed Sports. Many hundreds of disappointed sports ‘were unable to gain admittance to the pavilion, although possessing tickets. Before the first bout was on, the crowd filled the arena to overflowing. ‘Fear- ing that there might be a calamity if more entered, Gillen went outide. and informed the ring goers that there was no further room to be had. He 'sug- gested that as long as the sports held tickets of admission, and the club was « responsible one, they would receive | their money back If presented to-day.

PAVING ISITIS ~ JUGGLED Contract Work on Oc- tavia Street Between Ellis and Eddy. Strip of Basalt Blocks and Two Strips of Bitu- minous Rock. Much Sand and Rock, but Less Cement Than Specifica- tions Demand. FIRE MARSHAL APPEARS. Relative Quantity of Materials Used so Far as the Work Has Pro- gressed. Contractors of the old school and solicitors of the new were uneasv yes- terday. The rumor was in circulation that the Grand Jury was hot on the | trail of an enterprising “solicitor” who | had forged the name of a property- owner on a petition for street work. Forgery of the name -vas not all. It was said that the figures of frontage had been expanded on a bona-fide pe- tition. It is well known that the com- petition between ‘‘solicitors” is keen, and therefore it was surmised that some irrepressible genius, bent on se- | curing the required number of “front feet” and finding actual owners reluc- tant to sign a petition, had supplied the deficiency by imagination. Meanwhile the Street Department continues to do business at the old stand according to the old methods in- | herited by Ambrose from a long line of | inefficient predecessors. Property- owners in-the Western Addition who read The Call may get an object lesson in street paving by strolling down to the block on Octavia street between Ells and Eddy streets. It is not al- | leged that there is jobbery or rascality in the work there progressing, but there is a deficiency in cement -which may have escaped the knowledge of the con- tractor. There is a little history connected with the paving of this particular block on Octavia street. The material origin- ally proposed was bituminous rock. Property-owners wanted that kind of street paving material and expressed their desires in a petition for the im- provement. About the time the work was to begin the Fire Marshal appear- ed on the scene wit’i an alacrity sur- prising for a fireman, and he pointed out the danger of a smooth pavemir!u e wanted basalt rock and the property- owners wanted bitumen. The con- tractor was obviously willing to have both, for a compromise was arranged wheteby fourteen feet in the center of the roadway was to be paved with ba- salt blocks and a strip twelve feet wide on either side was to be paved with bituminous rock. The work went for- ward in this variegated style. The Call’s basalt sharp has not made an inspection of the premises, but the expert In bituminous rock pavement has made a few observations which the | interested property-owners who pay for the work may verify if they care to em- ploy some of their energies for their own preservation. . TUnder the specifications for this work there should be used materials in this proportion: One cubic yard (eight bar- rels) of cement, two vards of sand and seven yards of rock. The sand and ce- ment should fill ‘the interstices without increasing the bulk of the material. | There should be one and one-seventh barrels of cement for each cubic yard | of rock. In the allotted area of work in this street there are 7230 square feet, or 3615 cubic feet. According to the specifications there should be used 150 barrels of cement on the job. The con- tractor has laid 4215 square feet, or 2107 cublc feet. Bighty-eight barrels of ce- ment have been taken to the premises and eighty-seven should have been used in the work so far performed, but it seems, according to external and in- ternal observation, that only forty- three barrels of cement have been ap- plied to the work already done. The property owners who will be called upon to pay for the work are not asked to accept The Call's figures if doubt exists as to the accuracy. of the statement in the main, let them go and ask Mr. Curry, the inspector on the work, how he measures the work and how he calculates the quantity of cement used. The inspector under- stands how to measure cement and how to construe specifications. He had experience under Superintendent Ash- worth, and probably learned something from Ashworth’s predecessors, and so brought to the present superintendent a fund of knowledge from away back. Scenes of activity are presented on the work. The contracting firm—the Union Paving and Contract Company— employs fifteen men at $2 per day, one foreman at $2.50, six teams hauling rock and sand at $4 a day each. When all work a half day the pay roll amounts to $30 a day. This is outgo on the job. Profits come in when forty- four barrels of cement, worth $2 65 a barrel, are saved. These little. incidents of street work may not be of overwhelming impor- tance to the public generally, but property owners on the block in ques- tion may find sermons in the basalt ‘stones and books in barrels of cement.

There was a general belief among race track habitues last night that the girl had returned to the city and was in hiding in a Stockton street lodging house. It was reported that Gus Ros- land, a well-known:pool boy, knew of her whereabouts and had been seen with her. Rosland’s mother was seen last night and she said her son had come and got his overcoat and stated that he would be gone for a few days. He could not be found thereafter.

In spite of and parties A splendid showing was made by the of vocal and Instrumental music the event of the evening—the essay contest was called. 5 The competitors were two In number, James McCarron; who has already won laurels in similar contests, and Harry Hunt. The subject was well in keeping] with the high and lofty aims of this bana of young men—*Temperance, the Founda- tion of True Manhood.” McCarron spoke first, and every sentence gave abundant evidence of thoughtful consideration of his subject, but he was destined to meet defeat at the hands of his competitor. The winning essay was, in part, as fol- lows: “Temperance will do away with penitentiaries and jails, it will elevate the moral plane, it will réduce the numbers of our hospitals and it will almost tataily do away with our insane asylums.
