Mi] Favorite Stories Bn lainN i. coin One Detail Wai Missing ( On the historic afternoon when Jack Johnson fought Jim Jeffries In Nevada for the world's championship there was a baseball game at the old Polo grounds. In the press stand, smong otffers, sat Sid Mercer, the sporting writer, and Franklin P. Adams, the i column conductor. For some reason or other, ringside bulletins were not be- I ing received at the hall park. Natural- | ly, the crowd wanted to know how the ' tight was going. Several hundred spectators, drawn by the fact that telegraph instruments ' were clicking in the press stand, , packed themselves solidly behind the wire netting In the hope of hearing I tidings from Reno over the wire. Mer- | cer and Adams got a Joint Inspiration. | They pretended to be taking a ringside I description off one of the Instruments. . First one would chant off a purely ' imaginary account of a round, and then the other would. Now It so happened that Adams had a bet down on the negro to win, and accordingly favored the black contender. in bls turn to “read’’ a round, would depict Johnson as hammering Jeffries Into a pulp. But Mercer, who was a partisan of Jeffries, would each time retaliate with a spirited but, of yrturse, purely fictitious account of hop- the white man, having rallied heroieally, was now dealing mighty blows upon the head and body of the tottering, weakening black. Naturally, the listening crowd was I torn by conflicting emotions. Cheers I mid groans marked the utterances of | the two gifted romancers. Eventually, when the multitude had grown so In numbers that the pressure, of Its bulk threatened to break down the netting, the conspirators decided it was time to bring their Joke to a climax. Mercer, cocking his head above an instrument as though the better lo bear, begun reciting, somewhat after this fashion: “Round-seven I At-tlie-sound of-the-bell-the-two-nieii-leffp-to-the-center - of-tbe-ring! They-exchange-a-whlrlwind-of-Jabs-and-npper-cuts 1 The-tighting-is - the - fiercest - ever-seen-ln-a-lieavy-weighi-contest! Snddenly-the-knock-out - blow - is-delivered-upon-the-point-of-the-Jaw! The-defeat ed-man-drops-like-a-log! His-seconds drag-his-uncon-sclous-form-lnto-his-corner! The-mad-dened-throng-acclaims-the-winner- and-pandemonium-reigns-supreme 1” Here he paused and, with the air of one who has completed a hard job, made as though to sit down. From a thousand throats behind him | one question arose In a mighty chorus: “Who wins?’’ Dramatically Mercer raised his hand for silence, and a deep hush befell. “The dispatches did not state." he i said, simply, nnd sat down again.
