Ketchcll Would
Meet Langford
Kight fans are busy discussing tho
championship fight between Johnson
and Ketchcl, the main subject of ar
gument being whether Kctchel
knocked Johnson down or not In the
Into championship tight. The gen
eral opinion among those who were
at the ringside was that the cham
pion did the tumbling act for the
benefit of the pictures, nnd thoso
who were close enough to see the
"golden smile" on Jack's face as he
went to the mat found it hard to
reconcile the Idea ot a smile being
good company for a knock-down says
the Examiner.
The wonderful cleverness of the
big negro was acknowledged, the
only blot on his scientific exhibition
being the flop to the floor, which
was voted amateurish. 'There was
no desire on the part of the fol
lowers of tho game to see the men
matched again, the superiority ot
tho champion having been shown
too decisively.
Wants Return Fight.
Willie Urltt was nround town
with two of Kotchel's teeth in his
pocket. Iirltt was showing them to
prove the power ot Johnson's punch
hut the loss of his masticators evi
dently has not dulled Kotchel's wil
lingness to fight, as his manager was
after Johnson yesterday for a return
fight.
N"Won't ou fight us again before
you fight unybody else?" Drltt ask
ed Johnson, to which the big cham
pion replied:
"I'll fight an) body If I can see
any monoy In It. That's my busi
ness, nnd I'm still actively engaged
In It."
Johnson wns talking yesterday of
going to Los Angeles, where he has
been offered a match with the win
ner of the Jim Flynn-Jack Hums
fight, nnd as he Is not worrying
about losing his championship to ei
ther ot these pugilistic artists, ho
sajs he 'may make 'the trip south
and accept McCarey's offer.
Will Fight Langford.
Kctchel has no definite plans for
the future. Iirltt was asked yester
day If Stanley would fight Langford,
un'd the manager promptly said that
he would.
"Ketchel will fight Langford any
ttntttinnnnnnttnnbnnnn
now will bo gone forever. The Board'
of Agriculture and Korentry have al
ways been ready to assist us and
dcseivo our appreciation ot their ef
forts. Especial thanks aro duo to your
committees, who have worked hard
and persistently to secure the ad
vantages we now enjoy, I would
particularly Impress upon you the
Importance of having a live and. Rus
tling Improvement club, in. which
all the residents take an active In
terest. Many benefits can bo obtain
ed through united efforts that could
not bo secured through individual
action. The tendency Is for each
section to loso interest as It has Its
wnnts satisfied, but this should bo
guarded against, for what benefits
one benefits all, and an Improvement
in one part Is bound to advanco. el.
ther directly or Indirectly, the In
terests or the whole trast. Take
broad view of theso things, got to
gethcr in tho Club and talk thorn
over, nnd having decided one wuy
or tho other, got behind your deci
sion and seo that It goes through,
if possible,
P. 1). CREEDON.
President,
Tho llullotlu is assured that
theio mo no lots for sale 011 Alewa,

time." said Willus, "but he will not
make weight for any ot theso fel
lows any more. Papke? No. What's
the use ot fighting him any more.
He's afraid to get In and fight. Juet
as booh as ho gets hit ho covers up
and will not do a thing. The peoplo
don't want that kind ot a fighter."
Outside of a slightly swollen nose
and the hiatus In his row of teeth,
Ketchel did not show any signs of
the beating Johnson gave him.
Taking Films Eait.
Tlv Krellng leaves for New York
today with the films ot the moving
pictures ot the fight and Coffroth
will head for the big city on Wed-
, ncsday, arriving In New York In
time to see the pictures as soon as
they are developed and complete ar
rangements for showing them In the
EaBt. Many requests have been re
celved for dates for showing tho pic
turcs and most of the large cities
of tho East have sent In requests
for a chance to exhibit them
It is unfortunate that the films
have to be sent East to be develop
ed, as it will be somo time before
the pictures can be shown hero, but
when they are exhibited in this city
they should prove a great drawing
card, as the pictorial representation
of the fight will set at rest man)
doubting ones who were at tho ring'
side but cannot-make up their thlndt
as to the Johnson knock-down. When
tho picture are shown they are like
ly to sot this matter right.
Won't Chase Jeffries.
Johnson has received many often
for theatrical tours, but so far hi
has not made up his mind what hr
will do. He was informed yester
day of Jeffries' statement that he
would come to this country at one
ana sign up to meet Johnson.
"Thnfs all right,; said Jack, "I
have my money up and am willing tt
mako a match with Jeffries any tlmi
ho Is ready, but I'm not going to run
after him. I am the championship
and Jeffries can come after me."
Down In MemphlB, Tonn., accord
Ing to the tolcgrnph, the negroes are
celebrating Johnson's victory to the
great detriment of the river traffic.
Two big Mississippi steamers are
tied up there and the owners find it
Impossible to get crews to man the
boats on account of the celebration
of tho champion's success.
