JOHNSON'S WHITE WIFE
CAUSING HIM TROUBLE.

Chicago, January 7. Whether or
not Jack Johnson will lose the,
heavyweight titlo of the pugilistic
world during this year, as predicted
by Madame Do Thebas, the Perisian
seeress, lull is already bringing
trouble in big bunches for the black
champion.
Peace and happiness around the
negro's home vanished when his
mother, in a statement, reiterated
that the white wife of her son, now
confined In a hospital as a result of
a "run In," In which Gaston Lo
Frolt, the champion's former
French chauffeur, and a gun figured,
"would never, never be allowed to
stay under her roof again." The ul
timatum of Johnson's mother, deliv
ered last night, caused the champ
ion to pack his grip and seek lodg
ing at a liotel.
Mrs. Johnson asserts that John
son's white wife is responsible for
the former chauffeur going on the
hunt of Johnson with a gun a few
days ago and that she the white
wife gave mi-al support to the
venture which has placed the
French motorist behind the bars.
Johnson will not. discuss the Issue
and refuses to say whether he will
return homo.
