Fresh Fight Gossip From Reno

Flashed Over the Wires Today

fAmerlcan News Service) Reno, Nev., July 2. Henry Pleiffer blew in from Kansas City with a trained chicken which he wanted to trade with Jack Gleason for a ringside seat. The chicken walked a tightrope for Gleason but Jack wanted one that could whistle so the deal was off. Jerry the Cricket, Gunshot Grogan. Wttertank Kinzel, Smiling Harry, Kid Bullets and Sidewheeler Sweeney are all here to see the fight. One whole, entire block looks like broadway Charley White, Big Tim, Jack MacAullffe, Jim Corbett. Thorley the Florist, Tim McGrath are all doing sentry duty up and down the avenue. Frank Hartlng of San Francisco, one of the most experienced ring officials of tho country will be chief timer. T. The sale of seats continues. The promoters figure $150,000 for sure and say their profit must come from the pictures. Brother Jim sauntered Into Brother Tom's place and announced he had $5,000 to put on Jeffries. It was placed at 100 to 65, the be6t obtainable odds. Jimmy Lawler is giving odds of 100 to 75 but few sports are placing com missions with but the little known man. ; Tom Jones, Ad Wolgast's manager, made one bet of $1,000 to $750 that the fight will go five rounds. J. A. McCullum, representing a Chi cago whisky house, said that the best odds he could get were $100 to $65 with Jeff as favorite. The mutual system of betting on the rounds is popular here. Tbe play in the gambling houses is fierce and standing room is a premium. Excellent winnings are reported from the faro banks. The roulette wheels get small patronage. Neither Mrs. Jeffries nor Mrs. John son will witness the battle, but each will be apprised of the run of things by special service. Jeff has ordered a supper for twen ty-five friends, win or lose, and has chartered a special car for Frisco for Tuesday night. Johnson will pack up at once after the fight and go east, stopping off In Chicago.Frazee reports he has $62,000 in sight for the big bear and none of them solicited. The largest number of single bets are from twelve to lifteen and from 6'xteen to twenty rounds. All the r ports report a brisk business in this style of .betting.

TARDINESS Hi THE SCHOOLS IMPROVES

Attendance During the Spring Term Much Better than the Fall Term. 36 KIDS GOT SPANKINGS A NUMBER. OF HOURS LOST THROUGH SICKNESS DURING PAST .TERM REPORT PLEASES SCHOOL OFFICIALS. Improvement is shown in regard to tardiness for the spring term of tho public schools which closed in June, in comparison with the report for the fall term which ended February 11. In a number of other respects the report for the spring term is very gratifying ti the school officials During the spring term there were fi05 cases "of tardiness, the tota'l time lost in minutes being 9,Oo!, or an average, of ,.C!4 minutes per child. As compared to this, there were 2,30 cases of tardiness during the fall term. 13,093 minutes being lost, or an average of ti.37 minutes per child. At tbe high school the improvement was particularly noticeable, but at the Garfield school the record for the fall term was slightly better than that of last term. At the high school in tho I fait term there were 78 cases of tardiness. The time lost was 125 minutes in the first term and 02 minutes dur ing the second. There were 85 cases of tardiness during the fall term at the Garfield school as compared to Sh cases in the spring term. The loss in minutes was 80S and 447 for the first and second terms respectively. Cases of Absence. Cases , of absence owing to sickness were unusually frequent at the spring term. The number of days lost were 12,4341,3 as compared to O.GSHa during the fall term. On two or three occasions during the spring term there were epidenims of measles and whoop ing cough, which accounts for the spring term's showing. The deepf snows and severely cold weather in the early part of the term also had its effect. Truancy was not altogether without

its charms during the spring term.i, Si .... ,.,

The report shows there were 54 cades. There were 38 cases of corporal pun ishment by teachers or other school officials. The number of visitors was large, the report showing the total number to have been 796. The fall enrollment is always larger than that in the spring term and this accounts for the decrease shown. At English. Army Larnbast the Army Council for Military Academies (American News Service) London, July 2. The Army Coun cil is being severely criticised for letting down the bars at Sandhurst and Woolwich in order to relieve the serious chortage of officers in the army. Sandhurst and Woolwich are Eng land's West Point, and the entrance examinations have generally been so severe that only about 15 percent of the, candidates succeeded in getting in. ' 1 " ' For some time past, however. It has been public knowledge that a com mission in the English army was be-j coming daily more unattractive to the yoiith of England, and th shortage of officers became a serious question, the . army council admitted between two and three hundred candidates to Sandhurst and Woolwich this year without competition examination of any kind. , One of the bigh officials in English army circles, after severely criticising this action of, the council, gives several reasons for the army's unpopularityy "First of all," he said, "the openings in life for young men of good breeding have been greatly multiplied in the last twenty years. Careers which ' formerly would not have been entertained for one moment for their sons are now eagerly welcomed- by modern parents. The professions which social caste formerly prescribed for gentlemen were few; they have now become many and mainly because the chief demand is for money. "Life is more expensive, and the wings of commerce alone can support it. It is the commercial life, in one or its multitudinous phases, which the j majority of the well born and moderately educated are now compelled and are willing to live. "The second reason is that the army authorities are themselves to' : blame for bringing the army into disrepute. The authorities have not kept faith with the parent and the parent is tired of them. Young men have entered the service upon terms which have been repeatedly repudiated by the authorities. There is, in consequence no sense of confidence in the army authorities, and the prudent parents leaves them alone, "Then while the cost of living has gone n and the number of rival professions has greatly increased, the remuneration offered by the , army remains contemptible. The civilian par ent especially is badly treated. Though Sandhurst and Woolwich ask for $150,000 a year from the country they do not forget to nralet the civilian parent in a sum little short of $1,000 a year for the son's training. "Then when the yoncg man has passed through his coarse and obtained his commission he is paid the magnificent salary of $480 a year, the

the fall term the enrollment waa 3.25W. while the enrollment for the second term was S.liX. Last term there were 1.775 boys and 1,807 girls enrolled, making the general total enrollment 3.5S2. The monthly enrollment average number belonging, and averaga daily attendance are smaller than the general or term enrollments, the figures being 2.?0O, and 2,031, respectively.

WELL, WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS? (New York World) Indianapolis is one of the cities of the Plain. It is as nearly in the center of Indiana as it could be placed without measuring. The Ftreets are wide and the sky is dark with softcoal smoke. It is a cousin of Chicago and is shamelessly proud pf the rela tionship. Yellow trolley cars built of steel ramifv in every direction and some dark green ones venture recklessly to distant. Ft. Wayne and to Columbus, where the Ohio Penitentiary thrives. The trolleys are bigger, bet ter, cleaner and faster than anything of the kind in the East and are run to suit public convenience and not so as to keep folks from meeting trains, as Mr. Mellen manages his, for example. The hotel spittoons are built two stories high to accommodate the expectorations of the gentlemen from Kentucky and Tennessee, who are numerous visitors. The Claypool Hotel has a bar room on each corner so that guests can not go astray. .u " " ument, which is a tribute to all the fighters from George Rogers Clark and Tippecanoe down.

Critics Working Letting Down the Bars at the Officers Needed. whole of which for the first year must disappear in his outfit. "Six years of this brings him to lieutenancy, which means $595 a year and for another six years he has to live on that. ' "Tbat is to say that unless a parent can allow his son $500 a year at least, the army is no place for the boy. "This means of course that even when commissions were open to competition and open competition, on the whole, is the fairest means of selection the candidates were strictly limited to that comparatively small class whlch.can afford the luxury. "From whatever point of view one may approach this serious problem, it seems to me that the first duty of the government is to restore the entrance competitive examination (making it partly physical and partly Intellectual) and, at the same time, introduce a "living wage" for the junior officers. "I would pay evevry second lieutenant $1.92 a day at least, and every lieutenant $2.40 a day. A grant should be made of $500 cn account of outfit for every officer on first joining; I would make the training at Sandhurst and Woolwich practically free to those who succeed in securing admission; promotion should be assured to the effective; the underhand system of secret reports should go; and I would abolish the many ridiculous charges which a false regimental pride still enters on the mess bill. "For Instance Into and promotion within a well-naid and efficient army nothing but sterling merit should count, and It should be free to find that merit in every well-bred family in the kingdom, be it rich or poor."
