Jegries Training Camp, Rowardennan,' April 14. The movements of Jim Jeffries for the past four or five days have been a tacit admission that he put too much hard work into the first half-dozen days if his training. Always a terrific worker, and more determined to win his fight with Johnson than any other in his life, he started off with a gait that would likely have caused him to go stale a month before the 4th of July. Under the pressure of his trainers and the worry which Jeffries has undergone . over the cVoming operation upon his wife he slacked off a lot in his work yesterday. He announced that he Intended to take his training easily until his wife had recovered and his mind had been relieved of the strain which he la now undergoing. "I have been trying for several days to get the big fellow to easy up in his work," said Farmer Burns today. "He is such a gultton for work- that it is hard for me to keep him from doing too much. I think we can get him to go fishing oftener and to less
work every day than he started out to do." Jeffries 'anxiety to make no mis
takes in his training so that he will be in the best possible conditiin is very apparent. The natural worry of the preparation for the greatest fight
in history, added to Jeffries' distress
over the illness of his wife, to whom he is devoted, have kept him far from
light-hearted for the past few days.
His sleep has not been so good for a
couple of nights, as it ought to be in the crisp atmosphere of the mountains. The big man is a man of moods and,
though worry has cast him down at
times, at other times his supply of good nature, which Is deep well, bubbles up
and he jokes and plays with his pal
Dick Adams, like a big schoolboy. Such
a mood was on Jeffries yesterday after
noon. He had fought three lively rounds with Sam Berger and provtd tohimself and the spectators that his wind was extra good and that he was still spry inside the ropes. Dr. Porter had examined his heart and pronounced it the heart of a man of 25, and the
former boilermaker was happy.

Los Angeles, April 14. Hugh Mcintosh of Australia, the man who. promoted the Burns-Johnson fight, does not want to see such a rich plum as the Langford-Bums bout drop out of bounds. The following cablegram from Mcintosh came yesterday: "Naughton, Examiner, San Francisco Offer Lang-ford $10,000 to fight Burns,
Australia, June. Two transportations. (Signed) "M'lNTOSH." Joe Woodman, when seen last night, said briefly and to the point: "Nothing doing. Langford and myself would make the Australian trip if Mcintosh offered a substantial purse with a winner's and loser's end, but not otherwise. I am sure Langford can get more money out of a "fight with Burns In this country than Mcintosh offers. We are not stuck on making the trip, anyhow, as it would mean that we would not be able to work with Jerries and to take in the big fight." Mcintosh as informed of the way Woodman views the offer and it remains to be seen whether the Australian fight handler will name a purse that will tempt Langford.
The idea of matching Burns and LangfOrd was conceived by Sid Hester or by some one using his name. It was given out that Hester had made Burns an offer and that it was likely to be accepted. The amount offered Burns was not stated, but a day or two later Burns cabled the writer to represent him at the signing of article and to have the "$25,000" guaranteed him deposited forthwith in an Oakland bank.. -,,,..v. .. .. Then the fat was in the fire. When Woodman, manager of T-nno-fni-rl max?
what Burns was to get he objected to
Deing a party to any scheme that would allow little Tommy to get away with all the cash. Woodman told Hester that Langford would want at least a much as Burns got, as Langford is the card. Hester placed himself in communication with Burns and tried to persaude Tommy that no such sum as $25.000 had been guaranteed. Hester wanted Burns to agree to a different arrangement, but Burns promptaly cabled back that the original offer must be adhered to or the match considered canceled. ,
SLAUGHTER

G1NDIAS
APPALLLING
Here It is again, the good old Yankee sport. The whole world becomes a baseball stage today, and the game's th thing. It's the opening of the season, the greatest day in all the year for the fan. The (fecerase of grandmothers will be terrible, an excuse which is ever young. Chicago will welcome, the brand-new White Sox team, a team which has passed through a long grind and which is anxious to show itself on native heath. "A flag for the new park"N is the slogan. . Players whose names have become household words the past month or so will be seen in actual reality. Zelder, Blackburne, Gandll, Barrows, Krueger, Mullen, Young and all of them will be there today at the' south side park, garbed in white raiment. Most of the veterans are he,re again, including the great stone-wall pitching staff, the envy of other magnates. Walsh, Smith, White, Burns, Scott, Sutor, all worthy of the fame that is- theirs and of the title "grandest twirling staff in the world," which Manager Jennings of Detroit has given them. .."Best of all, Hugh Duffy, latest of famous Chicago managers, will be on hand to receive the welcome that is sure. St. Louis is the foe for the opener. The Browns have drawn the honor of being the first hurdle to be leaped by the White Sox. So the rivalry in that direction will be keen. The visitors arrived last night and took to the- hay at once, so that they might be in the best possible shape. A good start today means a lot to Chicago. Last year at Detroit the getaway was a disappointment. There will be no repetition if the players can prevent it. They are a determined lot of fellows.
Manager McGraw is happy now that Beats Becker is a member of the Giants. The little manager has been anxious to secure the Boston player for over a year,
CHICAGO LEADERS SEE FLAGS AS RACES START BY HUGH DUFFY. We are ready: In condition we are not perfect, hut above the average at this time of the year. We have had setbacks and some bad luck, but survived them well. The team looks better to me than It did when we sttrted. I am satisfied we will give a good account of ourselves. I am eager to be before a Chicago crowd again, for a Chicago crowd is the best to play before in the world, win or lose, and we intend to win for them. BY FHASK CHANCE. Cincinnati, O., April 14. We are starting the season in the best shape we have ben in years. In m yoplnlon there is nothing to the National league race except the Cubs. They tripped us last season, but I hink we still have the class of the league. We are stronger in pitchers than ever, and will hit better. Only a lot of accidents can stop us.

H. A. A. LOSES BOWLING
CONTEST
Tired of heading the percentage list in --the Hammond bowling league tournament, the H. A. A. team dropped from their high perch on the top of tha ladder to second place last night by losing two games to the Homewoods. v The contest last night proved to be the most exciting one held on Cox's alleys during the tournament. The H. A. A. team battled hard to win the three games, and gained a good start by defeating the Homewoods the first game, but the second and third games were easy for the south siders. The high score rolled by Fowler on .prll 6 was beaten by Conkey of the Homewoods last night, who rolled a score of 328. The prize of $5 to be given to the man who bowls the highest score during the tournament will in all probability go to Conkey, as his score made last night is a hard one to beat. . . Two more contests will be played on Cox's alleys next Wednesday night, between the Homewoods and the Lake County Times, and the H. A. .A. and Lion store teams. The tournament has stirred up a great deal of enthusiasm among the Hammond bowlers.

J
Albany, April 14. The first of the
three Perkins bills prohibiting oral bet
ting at race tracks and making officials of racing associations criminally liable for infractions of the anti-race track gambling law, was passed by the assembly yesterday by a large majority, the vote being 9 to 34. The democrats fought the bill., if was argued that its passage would put an end to all horse racing In this state. The bill broadens the scope of the statute to take In all places and betting establishments, especially inclosures of all kinds, and makes it a misdemeanor for owners of race tracks and officers of racing associations to knowingly permit betting or any kind of gambling upon the race tracks. Assemblyman Clarke of Sheepshead Bay made a fight against the bill, and offered an amendment to eliminate the provision holding racing officers responsible for violation of the law. The amendment was defeated by a vote of 82 to 26.
nod finished and is in readiness for the first game, which will be played Sun
day, April 24. The game scheduled for that fate will be the West Ends
vs. the Foresters. It is probable that
the Zimmerman Colts of West Hammond, one of the many amateur teams organised this season, will also play their games at the West End park. The seating capacity of the park Is estimated at 600. The grounds are in fine condition and the diamond will be one of the fastest in the region. Besides scheduling games with the best teams that can be obtained this season he men who are backing the West End club have arranged to have a Chicago, band play at "the grounds every Sunday. The West End are an Independent organization, and therefore it is impossible for them to give out a complete schedule for the season, as they will schedule their games as they go along, , The West Ends will have their own umpire, Adelsperger being chosen to
take that responsible position by the officers of the- club. Next Sunday the'
West Ends will play the Zimmerman Colts another practice game at the West End ball park. On May 1 the West Ends will clash with the Boilermakers at the West Hammond grounds.
In his first full nine inning game of the season Eddie Plank of the Athletics held the Greenville, S. C., team to four singles.
