By DOROTHY
FORRESTER
Miss Forrester, the actress-composer has turned out in the above song one of the cleverest, up-to-the-minute comedy numbers ever penned.
The story deals with the topic which is on the tip of every man's woman's and child's tongue to-day—the approaching contest of July 4th
between James J. Jeffries and Jack Johnson for the athletic supremacy between the white and colored races—and a subject which is receiv-
ing more columns of free advertising in the daily press than anything since the Civil War.
