Says Jack Johnson Can
Beat Two Men in One Bay
San Francisco.—Information has been received in a letter from G.
L. (Tex) Rickard, who is now in Buenos Ayres, that Rickard, who was
the promoter of the Johr.sou-JefFries fight at Reno last year, will offer a
purse of $50,000 for Jack ‘Johnson to fight any' two men in the world
the same afternoon for the world’s championship. Rickard declares his
belief that Johnson can defeat any two men in the world, one after the
other.
“All I ask,” he writes, “is that Johnson be given a rest of 15 min
utes after disposing ot the first adversary. The fighters would be taken
on by Jack in the order mutually agreed upon. I do not care who they
are. Jack Johnson can beat both in one ring the same afternoon and
with only 15 minutes’ rest between the bouts.”
The letter says that if the arrangement goes through the fight will
be staged in Buenos Ayres.

Famous Sound Vessel
Sold For a Large Sum
Seattle.—Sale of the steamer Flyer to the Puget Sound Navigation
Company by the Columbia River & Puget Sound Navigation Company
was completed by the withdrawal of the Flyer from the Seattle-Tacoma
run. The price is not announced, but is said to have been in the neigh
borhood of $100,0(50.
The steamer Flyer has been on the run between Seattle and Ta
coma for 19 years. The new owners, who operate the Chippewa and
Indianapolis between these ports, will withdraw the Flyer from that
run and may put it on the Tacoma Seattlc Ivverett route. For the next
few weeks it will be out of service altogether while being overhauled
and remodeled. Approximately $20,000 will be spent in this manner.
The Flyer was built in Portland in 1891 and w'as brought to the
Sound for the Tacoma Seattle service, in which it has been ever since,
having traveled further in that time, probably, than any other boat of
the class ever built.
