Tho Methodist ladies will hold their annual bazaar on May Gth and 7th and will have on Bale a nice line of flowers, aprons and fancy work. tf In the history of the world there have been several fights that stand out as truly great . Everybody knows or ought to know all about the battle be tween David and Goliath. Mythology celebrates the desperate struggle be tween Hector and the Invulnerable Achilles, and we all know that Sparta cus was a great scrapper, and nearly every male child has heard of the Sul-llvan-Kilraln right But none of these can compare in point of Interest before the actual combnt with the Jeffries Johnson battle, which is scheduled to be held at the Emeryville race track, Emeryville, Cal., July 4. It Is estimated that the crowd that will cheer the victor on that day will be ten times as great as that which turned down Its thumbs at the bout in which Spnrtnous won tho gladiatorial championship and as many times as big as the gang that saw Hector do his sprint around the walls of Troy before Achilles finally put him out. At first the promoters planned to erect n structure that would hold 20,000 people, then 30,000, and now Rickard and Gleason have shaped up arrangements to seat CO.000 wild eyed fight fans. Reservations for seats have been received from all over the world People who have never before taken any Interest in boxing aro going to eeethe fight of the century. Hugh Mcintosh of Australia is to leave the antipodes for San Francisco with a party of 200 or more. From England half a dozen lords are coming to take in the big mill. The pnrty is expected to arrive la this country early In May. Noblemen from France and Germany are also bound to see the big mill. Jack Gleason says he has a request from China asking him to reserve 150 Beats. Nearly every big city In the United States is to have one or two special trains headed for San Fran Cisco. It looks as if Rickard and Glea son will have to Increase the seating capacity of the arena once more. Of lute there has been a lot of fren zied writing about the probable re ceipts, and some of the unthinking have estimated that $500,000 or even $1,000,000 will be raked over the box office desk. It Is to be said that $250, 000 will very nicely" and generously cover receipts. They are saying that a full million will be bet on the result of the great est of all fist fights. A million is a lot of money, but there are many wise boys and hunchees who are quietly stowing away the dollars against the time when the betting begins to be lively, nud it is possible that the ag gregate of the wagers at the last will look like a picture of the national debt Is It not barely possible that retire- inent of all this coin to stakeholders' hands might bring on stringency, tight money and largo uncertainty? This is not the financial editor's department, but it Is humbly suggested that if the Jeff-Johnson mill takes the money out of circulation, as some of the sport writers say It will do, the treasury ex perts had better arrange to have all the big prizefight transactions carried out by check. At least it is wise to leave enough money in circulation to handle pros per' -. Wo want no more clearing house certificates. The promoters have made arrange ments with nearly all of the leading railroad lines to the coast and with their co-operation will put into effect a system of supplying tickets for the big fight that caunot fail to satisfy everybody. In brief, the plau Is to make reserva tlon for a certain number of seats for each railroad. A person intending to make the trip to Frisco to see the fight has only to apply to a railroad agent, deposit tho price of the ticket he de sires, and the railroad company will Issue to him on order on Mr. Gleason or Mr. Rickard for a seat in the res ervatlon secured for them. This order will be countersigned by an ngent of the railroad when the rait road ticket is issued. Under this plan speculators would have to buy a rail road ticket with each ticket for the fight. The tremendous expense, of course, bars them from doing this. Every safeguard will . be taken against counterfeit tickets, and Glea son and Rickard will be indemnified by a substantial bond by the ticket manufacturers. Tho whole scheme has been thoroughly worked out and pronounced flawless. Gleason has mapped out a color llieine In conjunction with the tick rts that promises to prevent tho con fusion usually attendant upon big events of this kind. There will be eight prices of admission. Each differ ent priced ticket will bo of a certain rolor. The entrances to the arena will bp painted In colors to correspond with the ticket. A man holding a line tl k t will kuow that ho can't go nstrny if lie enters the arena through tin eutrnncp pnlnted blue. The same will of eonr.p, apply to the other col ors. BIG ENTRY FOR PENN MEET. All Told 210 College and Schoole Will Compete In Relay Races.

How Fortune Changes. How strangely baseball fortunes do mutate! Some years ago Tat Tebeau gave his brother George a temporary job in the Cleveland outfield just to help him out with a little money. Now George is one of the biggest magnates, with probably twenty times as much money as Pat has tucked away. Both Wood. Somebody had thrown a stone at the village constable as he patrolled his beat at night, hitting him on the helmet. The perpetrator of the outrage was not recognized, but on search ing for the missile the constable found a peculiarly shaped stone, which, lie averred, he had seen or namenting the window sill of a man whom he charged with the assault "I experimented with the stone, your worship, said tho constable "I threw it at an old 'elmct of mine, and it made exactly the same mark u that made by the Etono which struck me." "Cut what good was that when your 'end wasn't inside the 'elmet?" asked the suspect. , I thought of that, triumphant ly retorted 'the officer, "so I put a block of wood inside the 'elmet, and it was just the same as if my 'ead was in it !"
