PBELII1ABY TRAP HANDICAP TO RAUP
Tied with a score of ninety-nine, William J. Raup of Portage, Wis., and Charles E. Shaw of Chicago shot oft to determine the winner of the Grand American Handicap preliminary held yesterday at the Chicago Gun club range. Raup won, smashing twenty straight targets and making his total 119 out of 120 targets. In the shoot-off, which was held after the day's events, Raup and Shaw blazed away at twenty single targets. When they faced the traps the field in the rear was picked solid with close
to six hundred enthusiasts. Shaw
missed his fifth, fourteenth and nine
teenth targets, while his rival hit all
the missiles squarely.
Early In the afternoon Raup finished
his score of ninety-nine, a target less than the world's record of 100 straight targets established Tuesday by John W. Garrett of Colorado Springs. Shaw was shooting with the late squads and his performance was eagerly watched
as he had made only one miss during
the day, the sixteenth bird in the seo
ond event. When he shattered his last target his competitors swarmed about him, extending congratulations. Back in the crowd Mrs. Shaw waited to greet her husband. She threw her arms around him and kissed him, much to
Jhe enjoyment of the crowd. ..
only a boxing contest and within the
law, has revived the spirits of the
local fight fans.
As the situation now stands there
is no prospect of interference with the contest at the Xaud Junction pavilion Friday night. District Attorney Fredericks will have an expert von pugil

BY ir. E. K. Reno, Nev., June 23. If anything happens to the Jeffries-Johnson fight here it will be because Nevada with its two senators and one congressman is not a sovereign state, and that it has no right to regulate Its own affairs. Anything short of federal interfer
ence will not avail. Gov. Dickerson Is
prayer proof. No matter how hard the
forces that make for the stopping of
his fight may come at him he will
tand pat, and it Is doubtful If he could
do otherwise even were he opposed to '
he idea of holding the fight here on
moral grounds.
So far the governor has not been
heard from directly, but those about
him and who speak for him, give posi
tive assurance that Rickard and Gleason and the pugilists can go as far as
they like under the law. of Nevada,
which allows fights to a finish with
gloves. James Finch telegraphed from Carson this morning, and so did
Ole Elliott, who is attached to the governor's staff.
Flood Governor With Protests. The governor was reported at Ely.
It is said he already is In receipt of
thousands of telegrams from Individu
als and reform organizations request
ing him In the name of all that is holy,
desirable and decent to prevent the oc
currence of this "national disgrace," which is now the classic form of reference.
To as many of these telegrams as he
answered all he has to say is that the
law is plain and that there Is nothing
for him to do in the premises.

JEFFRIES READY FOR "BATTLE OF THE CENTURY." BY JAMES J. JEFFRIES. Reno, tv, June 231 am glad that the fight Is going to be held In Reno. I can go ahead now, knowing that there Is to be no further changre In plans. I am in as good or better condition than I ever naa In my life, and I can promise the people of vada that the white man's end of the "battle of the century," as It has been called, will be taken care of on July 4. There has been some talk abont the high altitude affecting me. I am not worrying about that. I have always been able to stand tbe altitude wherever I have been. Just before I went into training at Howard en nun I -warn in the monntalns around Tehachlpt for some time at an elevation of over six thousand feet. I climbed monntalns and did a lot of other work, but even then it never affected me. If it didn't then It isn't going to now, after the careful course of training that I have been through. TTp here in Reno, where there is plenty of warm sunshine and good fishing, I expect to round into the most perfect form I have ever been in. I feel that the people of Nevada are glad to have the flight take place on Nevada soil, and I am going to give them the best that is la me. That Is all man can do, and I think it will be enough to win on the day of the battle. .
his hand on Johnson's arm. "When you take me," declared Johnson, leaping into fighting attitude, "It will be because I am a dead man. You can't take me living." "We'll see," promised Lewis. The policeman then went away and hunted up two of his brother officers. When they returned they found several attendants barricading the way to the already barricaded doors. The policemen formed a flying wedge iand in this manner made their way through the outer lines. Then they attacked the doors, and after several onslaughts they were forced from their hinges. Inside they found Johnson. 'We are going to take you alive, not dead," said Lewis. "All right," said the negro. Atthe hall of Justice the champion was booked for speeding. Sig Hart was not arrested. Johnson's arrest followed a hard day's work in the gymnasium and in the ring. He boxed several rounds with each of his sparring partners, punched the bag for twenty minutes and exercised for half an hour with the gymnasium paraphernalia.

Reno Welcomes Advance Guard.
As to the fighters and their follow
ers they are as welcome as the haven
to the tempest driven ship. The town needs some new players, and already
the presence of the advance guard of
the sporting army is being felt and duly appreclated.
The sheriff and the chief of police
issued a Joint statement today. It starts out this way: "As long as the
laws of the state of Nevada permit prize fighting all licenses issued for
that purpose will be protected as fully
and effectively as any other licenses
Issued under the authority of lartv. No one need be under any fear or uncertainty about coming to Reno." The sheriff adds as a preamble the outline of the plans of himself and the chief of police to regulate the rush of visitors and protect the residents from the depredations of the inevitable influx of undesirables. If the local force
threatens to prove insufficient expert "elbows" who know the guns, djps, second story and peter men and their ways will be invited from San Francisco and eastern and middle western cities to co-operate. "Neither the sheriff nor myself," says the chief, "anticipates trouble. We believes the visitors will be peaceable and law abiding in the vast majority, but we wll protect all and can assure all that they need have no hesitation about
coming on to Reno."
The arena will be erected on the site of the one on which Jack Root and Marvin Hart fought five years ago. Rickard says work will be begun on it this morning, but James McLaughlin, the architect and contractor from San Francisco is not so sure about that. He says, in so many words, that he will have to see the color of somebody's money before he saws any timber.
a time things looked serious and that
there were no causalties is due to the surrender of the heavyweight champion after the bluecoats had broken down the doors of his gymnasium and placed him under arrest on a charge of exceeding the speed limit. The trouble started when Johnson, who was riding along the Ocean Beach
at a high rate of speed, ignored Policeman Lewis' command to surrender. Instead Johnson put on more steam and made for the Seal Rock gymnasium, where, with the assistance of Slg Hart, the doors were barred. Lewis sought the pugilist at hi training quarters and finally Induced Johnson to come to the door. "Come with me,'H aid Lewis, placing

converted near-gloom into a flood-light of Joy, shoving the West Slders to the top of the heap, 5 to 4. It might have
been a stouter score had the boys ling

GARY TEA1 COMING TO HAMMOND
Next Sunday will be a celebration at
the II. A. A. park in Hammond long to be remembered. The Gary team will be accompanied by six special cars which will be filled with rooters. The near rivals have stirred up a great deal of enthusiasm among the Lake county
fans, and while Hammond .expects to defeat the Gary boys they will have to play the best ball they know how to do so. The Hammond boys have been strengthened 50 per cent by the addition of new players. Klopp, the new backstop for the Hammond team. Is
playing an excellent game. In last Sunday's contest he caught everything ' that attempted to steal on him and before the game progressed more than three innings the Chicago players were hugging the bases as If they were married to them. A new man will be seen at short this week, and it is hoped that no more changes will have to be made. The games at the H. A. A. park will not start until 3:30 beginning next Sunday, so that the patrons will have plenty of time to get lo the game before it starts. In changing the time to 3:30 it will give the players on both teams a chance to get more practice and also will give the fans plenty of time to eat a good dinner and get to the park before the game starts.

Cleveland, June 23. Chicago fans may kick and then at the quality of work done by the white sox, but they have to give It to Comlskey's youngsters for work, as the lads put in another session of overtime yesterday, only to come out with the short end of a 3-to-2 score after fourteen innings of diligent pastiming. After the game was over Manager Duffy remarked: "Well, if the season does not end too soon we might play a nine-inning game here this year." Yesterday's game was the third extra inning affair during the present series. Ed Walsh, hero of many startling performances, was opposed by McGulre's young coast leaguer, 'Spec" Harkness. After the third inning the contest developed into a pitchers' battle with the youth having a slight margin on the veteran, though the defeat cannot be checked entirely to Walsh's pitching. The rqn which tied the score in the ninth was due to Blackburne's error, while a wild heave to first in the fourteenth by Walsh himself furnished the opening for the winning tally.
