Cincinnati, O., Jan. 26. That the Jef

fries-Johnson fight will be the longest ever fought for the world's championship in pugilism; ' that Jeffries can "come back" in the best way, and that the fight .will attract the betting of at

least z. ooo.ooo are asertions made here

today by William A. Brady, former

prominent, pugnstic promoter and now one of the principal theatrical men in this country. Brady said, also, that the people should not worry about where the mill should be pulled off, as the promoters know what they are' talking about and will not throw away that $101,000. "I have every good reason to believe that the mill may last so long that some of the spectators will lea th

stand before It is finished," said Brady.

Just figure It out for yourself. Jeffries will not lead, because he knows the danger of that, especially for a big man an done who has come back to the ring after a long absence. Neither will Johnson, whom I consider th

greatest defensive fighter of the age.

iney will both fight cautiously an dit will be a test of endurance. Jeffries Is not going to take any chances and the black man has been on the defensi vein all his contests. "As to the question of whether .Tf.

fries can come back in condition, there is no chance for hi mto do anything else. He is not bv anv mnnna or

man. He has dissipated some, but not

enough to hurt him materially. Didn't

ne wnip intzslmmons when little bet

ter than a novice and at a time when

titzslmmons was considered an unbeatable man? All he has to do ) tn

watch his diet and to work hard for three or four months. Then he will

be as fit as a fiddle. But understand. This is not saying anything against the colored man. Johnson could have fought Corbet twenty-five rounds and never minded it. He's a terrific infighter, and so is Jeffries for that mat

ter, but Johnson, to my mind, is a hit

too careful In pinches like this. How

ever. I know he will nut un a srreaf-

"I don't think the fight will be fought on the 4th of July, next. Every fighter has his little cranky spells and one of Jeffries' Is -on the matter of the day of his fights. He won't enter the ring on any day except Friday. The 4th of next July comes on Monday. There

fore, the promoters will have to choose another day, as his superstition has been tested in this way and has found him firm."

OWLS OF WHIM DEFEATED Br H. iA.

In a hard-fought contest th H a a

basket-ball team defeated the Owls of Whiting last night. Most of the basket throwing fell to Pollard, who

himself a star in every department of

tne game, making 14 of the 18 rmlnta

in the first half. Several baskets

voided by calling fouls on Pniiard

which those who are used to his quick action could not see. Hoffman made a great distance throw, netting the!

oiner two Dolnts of the h.ir tv,

teamwork was good, but at times the visiting team semed to show better work. Mason mad a great assist in the first half, and Pollard, for quick and good Judgment in teamwork, is the spinal column of the team. The tickets are out for the great stag to be given Feb. 3. Plans are already laid for a most interesting program. The evening will be full of fun, frolic and festivities, under arrangements and decorative features that will make this the gala day of the or-1

ganlzation. In fact. It will be a cel-

By defeating the Indiana Steel company's basket-ball team at Gary last night. at the Washington skating rink in a hotly contested game by a score of 25 to-12 the Baptist Athletic club of Hammond clinches its claim to the championship of Lake county Gary was theMast on the list of Lake county

ua-siei-Dau nves that had been unconQuered by the invincible Baptists, and by winning from them the championships now lies in the hands of the Baptist Athletic club of Hammond. The game was the best that has been witnessed at the Gary skating rink this season and. the lads plaiyed a well-behaved game, there being no

rougn piaymg on either side. The Washington rink at Gary has a fine basket-ball field, which is regulation size. The Baptists being strangers on the floor played a loose game at the start, but after the team had got

rainy acquainted with the floor it looked more like a whirlwind-than a basket-ball five. Cdmpbril DiatiniruUliea Himself.' Campbell of the Hammond five played an all around sensational game In his position at left forward and had the Gary boys following around at his heels to stop his rushes and fine basket throwing. He also made some sensational and difficult throws from

tne neid which brought loud applause from the fans. The championship of Lake pnnntv

now rests in the hands of the Baptists, who challenge any team in the county that thh.ks they can take the honor from them, for a game. The five will also be glad to arrange a game with any northern Indfana team. For games address G. Morganau, 5 Doty street. Wall, the regular referee for the Baptists, again showed his ability as an impartial official at the game last night and greatly pleased the fans and players with his decisions. The lineup:

Milwaukee, Wis.. Jan. 26. Frank Mulkem, who manager Jimmy Clabby the Hammond welterweight, has returned from MemDhls. TVnn .v,

Jimmy fought Jim Howard to a draw the other night. "This fellow Howard in one tough boy," said Manager Mulkem, "and Is really a light heavyweight. Howard had the best of it by twenty pounds and gave, Jimmy a pretty rough voyage all the way. Clabby outpointed him a little, but had hard work of--;, and I think this will teach him not to grive away so much weight, "Howard slashes away all the time and is dangerous at any stage of the game. The club wants to use Clabby against Mike Twin Sullivan or Tommy Quill in a couple of weeks. I would like to see some of the real welterweights take notice of Clabby and arrange a match for the title. I have $1,000 posted with Tom Andrews and have had for-three months to meet any welterweight in the country. Surely $1,000 should be blar onmio-H et.
