LENOX S - G o2 AR - a JEFFRIES SETTLES DOWN TO TRAINING AFTER FOUR DAYS’ RESPITE FROM WORK Trainer Billy Delaney Claims the Ché:mpion Will Be Ready to Defend His Title on the Day Specified. Jimmy Britt Is a Six to Ten Choice Over O’Keefe T LATEST PHOTOGRAPH OF JEFFRIES, TAKEN AT HARBIN SPRINGS ON MONDAY, WHEN HE WAS BOXING WITH FITZSIMMONS. THIS SHOWS THE CHAMPION IN MUCH BETTER CONDITION PHYSICALLY | \ THAN HAS BEEN SUPPOSED. ARBIN SPRINGS, July 28— There will be no postponement of the Jeffries-Corbett fight un- /less the unforeseen should hap- pen from this time on. Brownie, the poor little mountain bear that caused a sensation In the sporting world by help- ing himself to a hunk out of Champion Jim Jeffries’ off leg, has been expelled from the kindergarten class and in his solitude appears to_be keenly feeling his disgrace. The champion began light work again Monday and Trainer Billy Delaney says the big boiler-maker from the land of oranges and steep hotel rates will be ready to step into the ring on August 11, fit and ready. Manager “Kld"" Eagan did not appear quite so sanguine, but De- laney says Jeff will be on hand if he has but one leg to stand on. In sizing up the situation and referring to Jim Corbett's statement that he would claim the $2500 forfeit money if a post- ponement were asked for, Delaney sald, “Of course, Corbett would be entitled to the money and so would the club, but there is no need for any anxiety on that score.” Both Eagan and Delaney ap- peared nettled over Corbett's contention that Jeffries was endeavoring to side- step the ex-champion. “If our man is afrald of Corbett,” sald Eagan, “why didn’t Corbett sign ‘winner to take all.’ " In the mind of both manager and trainer that seemed an argument stfong enough to preclude any shirking on Jeftries’ part. In all, the champion has enjoyed a respite from work of about four days and his trainer says it has done him good. Jeffries certainly has not the look of an invalid or a convalescent. His face is the picture of health and with the short runs he will soon indulge in on the road Delaney claims he will do to face any kind of a battery of ripping upper cuts, straight lefts or right-hand wallops. To fllustrate that the champion is rap- idly “getting back to his feed” he was the central figure in a game of baseball played in front of the hotel after dinner Monday evening. Jim’'s terrific slides be- tween balles have always been a feature of the game here, but at Trainer Dela- ney's request he occupled the pitcher’s box throughout Monday night's contest, lest the Injured limb might receive a set- back. Judge Quinn of Emeryville picked flies from the clouds that seemed an im- possibility. Billy Delaney, on first, looked for all the world like “Big Bill' Everett of the Colorado Springs team. Mine Host Jim Hayes held down the second bag In a manner that would set @Hank Harrls seeking his signature. Dick Adams, a well known San Francisco hotel man, made some pickups at short that brought down the bleachers. Jack Jeffries han- dled his brother's drops and curves after the style of Leahy of the Friscos, while Fitzsimmons batted as fiercely as Lajole ever did. - Laying aside the pugilistic end of it for the nonce Bob Fitzsimmons and his charming bride are making a neck and neck finish of it with the champion these days for the admiration of the summer boarders. THe voice of the talented mem- ber of the “When Johnny Comes March- ing Home' company has proved a wel- come addition to the springs talent. Bob looks as happy as on the occasion when that solar plexus punch retired Jim Cor- bett at Carson, bringing Fitz fame and fortune. Bob has his troubles, too. His pet gopher snake is seriously ill from an * RELATIVE SIZE OF THE BOXERS O’KEEFE. BRITT. inches. Height o5 Thenes i+ - * attack of bronchitis and in all probability will die. Judging from odds and endd of sgossip gathered about the Jeffries camp fire Tommy Ryan, the middle-weight fighter, stands as well in these diggings as would a three-card monte man at a camp meet- ing. Tommgy's statement that he would give $10,000"to see Corbett beat Jeffries as- uredly made a hit. ‘“Why,” sald Billy Delaney, “any time Ryan parts with ten thousand it will be when he 1s mixed up in a shipwreck, has the coin in a belt about his body and is going down for the third time.” . Jeffries himself didn’t say much, al- though he did let slip the remark, with a chuckle, that he'd almost be willing to throw a fight to see Tommy separate himself from that amount. Looks like there might be some hearty handshaking if Ryan should conclude to go in Cor- bett’s corner on the 14th of August. From all accounts there will be a crowd of Easterners to see the big fight. Billy Delaney has a letter from Bob Deady, the well-known Philadelphia sport, stating that he and Billy Clarkson will head a big delegation which will leave the Quaker City -for California on August 1. Tom Hallahan also writes to look out for a flock of the boys from El Paso, Texas. F. E. MULHOLLAND. — e CORBETT AS A WRESTLER. Rehearses His Part in “As You Like It” With Actor Rat- cliffe. Actor-Pugilist James J. Corbett prac- ticed both of his professions yesterday at his training quarters in Alameda. He boxed fifteen swift rounds with his two sparring partners, Sam Berger and Yank Kenny, and the punching bag and re- hearsed his part as Charles, the wrestler, in “As You Like It,” in which he is to appear next Saturday and Sunday ‘with Nance O'Neil in open air performances at Sutro Heights. In addition to repeating his lines Actor Jim engaged in a practice wrestling bout with Actor Edward Rat- cliffe, who is to be his opponent in “As You Like It.” Corbett’s knowledge of the sport of grapple and throw and his excellent physical condition were too much for Ratcliffe, but the latter clung to shifty Gentleman James untll he per- spired like a saturated sponge. Ratcliffe won one fall and announced that he felt he had earned fame enough to last him the remainder of the week. When the struggling actors went to the mat Corbett ‘was generally in the position of the cur- tain and Ratcliffe was in the position of . IMMY BRITT has been installed a | strong 6 to 10 choice over Jack O'Keefe for their third -meeting, which will take place on Friday night in Mechanics’ Pavilion. It is expected the price will go to 2 to 1 before the men enter the ring. These odds hard- ly seem justified on public form, O'Keefe having won from Britt once on a foul and then fighting him a sensational draw. The men who make a study of the vagaries of wagering say the sporting men of this city undoubtedly figure that Britt has a shade the best of it, and they expect to win back the money they lost up north, and also the bookmakers' commissions they pald on the draw at Butte. They are not figuring on Britt having it on O'Keefe on condition, as the latter seems trained to the hour. His weight is hovering about the 133-pound mark and he looks big and strong. He did his last heavy work yesterday. The principal item on his programme of indoor work was a five-round boxing and wrestling bout with big Dave Barry, who outweighs him fully thirty pounds. The rounds were of five minutes duration. O'Keefe is a good two- handed hitter, Is an excellent judge ot distance and is well balanced on a sturdy pair of legs. His muscles are flat and do not stand out in bold relief. He uses straight blows, which seem to have tre- mendous force behind them, although they travel but a few inches. He has a phenomenal reach, his spread of arms being almost as great as that of Jeffries and the other heavy-welghts. Britt is keeping steadily at work in Ala- meda. His hand has not troubled him and he has no fear of its failing him on Fri- day night. B e e e e e R Y ) the stage—Jim was on top and Edward was underneath. Corbett’s seven weeks of wrestling with Kenny and Berger have equipped him so that it would take no mean expert at that game to put him on the flat of his back. Kenny and Berger state that Jim will do the turn of Charles, the wrestler, better than Charles himself ever did it. In his fifteen rounds of boxing, which Corbett went through in the morning, he took on Kenny for five rounds, Berger for the same number of rounds and punched «the bag for flve rounds. —————— LARNED DEFEATS WARD IN CUP -FINALS AT LONGWOOD In the Five Sets Played Spectators Are Treated to Some Rare Tennis. .
