JEFF READY TO
START WORK.
Will Begin Training In Hot
Springs Early In March.
?
; IS WORRIED OVER HIS WIND.
California" Intends to Do Most of His
Work Outdoors So as to Perfect His
Bellows ? Big Fellow Should Engage
Several Husky Pugilists ta Help Him.
Since Jim Jeffries announced that be
would start training for his coming
contest wiilt Jack .Kihnson tlie 9rst
week in March the 1)1:; fellow has been
receiving hundreds ??f letters daily
front the fight expi ; and fans offer
lug all kinds of sug;.t - inns as to how
he should prepare foi ; . lining mill
aud some advice as to he should
light the negro \s JctJ I- - lis own
ideas as to how he should train i >r the
coming mill, all the suggestion?. will
go for naught.
Jeffries has announced time and
again that he will d? vote must of his
time to outdoor work so his wind may
be as good as it ever was. He figures
that with his bellows in good shape he
will have very little difficulty iu dis
posing of Johnson. While Jeff thinks
this Is O. K.. still there is another
thing just as important. That is for
the big fellow to select a staff of husky
young pugilists, not old timers, to
tight, not box. with him, men that
will try hard to sneak over a knock
out wallop. He should engage iu one !
of these real scraps twice a week
Then in a short time he would know
whether his judge of distance is as
good as ever, in justice to the peo
ple who are going to bet on him in the
coming fight Jeff should do this. These
men waut to bet on James J., but they
don't want to bet blindly. They want
to know whether he is "there."
A man may train with the strength i
of a bull and the endurance of a Mar
athoner. but training isn't lighting?
not by a long chalk. One round of
real fighting sometimes takes more
gimp out of a man than a half a day's
hard work in the gymnasium. It's the
nervous strain that docs it.
When old Johu L. Sullivan turned
up in New Orleans to train for Jim ,
Corbett a buucb of prominent sporting
men filled the gymnasium to see him
begin traiuiug Old John was fat;
there was no getting away from that.
But fat as he was. there was one thing
which he could do? he could skip the
rope as nimbly as any other big man.
and it did not seem to affect his wind.
John performed a few stunts, took
hold of the waistband of his trousers
and hauled in about a foot of slack,
and that was enough for the wise
boys. They went out and offered
three and four to one that John L.
would lick the youth Corbett. If a
Corbett man turned up with any
money they matched for him.
Jimmy Britt never showed more
power of endurance thau in his train
ing for the Colma fight with Bat Nel
son. Britt was also a ropo skipper,
punched the bag and slugged with his
sparring partners for about two hours
every afternoon, and such a glutton
was he for work that he did not take
the usual rest of one minute between
rounds, but shadow boxed or mauled
a heavy bag while the trainers were
resting. He seemed to be able to last
from noon till sundown, and he might
have been able had he played his own
game and boxed with Nelson instead
of standing up ii. the sixth round to
slug it out then and there.
At the end of that terrific three min
utes both men were very tired, and
Britt reeled to his corner, gasping for
breath
"I'm awful tired!" he said
All his weeks of hard work, all his
training for stamina and endurance,
left him weak and shaky after three
minutes of real fighting.
Jeff should have some real fights.
The provisions of the articles of agree
ment will prevent hltn from engag
1 ing in public battles, but there is no
1 reason why he should not take on
? some tough fellows and fight them to a
; finish in private. He will get nothing
, of assistance to him in boxing with a
clever man. What he needs is real
fighting. If Stanley Ketchel had train
ed for his second O'Brien tight by try
ing to pick up cleverness O'Brien would
have outpointed him, because that is
O'Brien's game.
Jeff will probably have the greatest
all star training quarter staff in his
tory, and seven or eight good cooks
will always scramble the eggs and
scorch the soup.
What Jeff needs Is big, tough men
who will stand np and try to knock his
i head off his shoulders. To win this
fight he has got to perfect a system of
rushing in with both hands and flail
ing away until he lands one good wal
lop. just as Stauley Ketchel went after
O'Brien.
It isn't goinjc to be brain which will
lick Johnson v.- much as brawn and
the wallop.

I retirement to .lames Wads worth's farm

OLD FAVORITES.
THE 22D OF FEBRUARY.
PALE la the February sky
And brief the midday's sunny
hours.
The wind swept forest seems to
sigh
For the sweet time of leaves and flow
ers.
Tet has no month a prouder (lay,
Not even when the summer broods
O'er meadows In their fresh array
Or autumn tints the glowing wood!
For this chill season now again
Brings In Its annual round the morn
When, greatest of the sons of men,
Our glorious Washington was riorn.
Lo. where beneath a.-\ Icy Bhleld
Calmly the mighty Hudson flows!
By snow clad fell and frozen field,
Broadening, the lordly river goes.
The wildest storm that sweeps through
space
And rends the oak with sudden force
Can raise no ripple on his face
Or slacken his majestlo course.
Thus, mid the wreck of thrones, shall live
Unmarred, undlmmed, our hero's fame,
Ar.d years succeeding years shall give
Increase of honors to his name.
?William Cullen Bryant.
WHAT MIGHT BE DONE.
VTTHAT might be done If men were wise,
* " What glorious deeds, my suffering
brother,
Would they unite
In love and right
And cease their scorn of one another!
/"OPPRESSION'S heart might be Im
v bued
With kindling drops of loving kindness
And knowledge pour
From shoro to shore
Light on the eyes of mental blindness.
\ LL slavery, warfare, lies and wrongs,
All vice and crime, might die to
gether.
And wine and corn.
To each man born,
Be free as warmth in summer weather.
rpiIE meanest wretch that ever trod,
The deepest sunk in guilt and sorrow.
Might stand erect
In self respect
And share the teeming world tomorrow.
r\7HAT might be done? This might be
* * done,
And moro than this, my suffering broth
er
More than the tongue
E'er said or sung?
If men were wise and loved each other, i
?Charles Mackay.
WE SHALL KNOW AS WE ARE
KNOWN.
WHEN the mists have rolled In
splendor
From the beauty of the hills
And the sunshine, warm and
tejider,
Falls In kisses on the rills
We may read love's shining letter
In the rainbow of the spray.
Wo shall know each other better
When the mists have cleared away.
We shall know as we are known.
Nevermore to walk alone.
In the dawning of the morning.
When the mists have cleared away.
If we err In human blindness
And forget that we are dust.
If wo miss the law of kindness
When wo struggle to be just,
Snowy wings of peace shall cover
All the pain that hides away
When the weary watch is over
And the mists have cleared away.
We shall know as we are known.
Nevermore to walk alone.
In the dawning of the morning,
When the mists have cleared away.
When the silvery mist has veiled us
From the faces of our own
Oft we deem their love has failed us.
And we tread our path alone.
Wo should see them near and truly.
We should trust them day by day.
Never love or blame unduly.
If the mists were cleared away.
We shall know as we are known.
Nevermore to walk alone,
In the dawning of the morning,
When the mists have cleared away.
When the mists have risen above us.
As our Father knows his own.
Face to face with those that love us.
We shall know as we are known.
Love, beyond the orient meadows
Floats the golden fringe of day.
Heart to heart we bide the shadows
Till the mists have cleared away.
We shall know as we are known.
Nevermore to walli alone,
When the day of light Is dawning
And the mists havo cleared away.
?Annie Herbert.
THE BURDEN OF THE DAY.
WHO shall rise and cast away.
First, the burden of the day?
Who assert his place and
teach
Lighter labor, nobler speech,
Standing firm, erect and strong,
Proud as freedom, freo as song?
Lo. we groan beneath the weight
Our own weaknesses create,
Crook the knee and shut the Up,
All for tamer fellowship;
Load our slack, compliant clay
With the burden of the day!
Higher paths there are to tread;
Fresher fields around us spread;
Other flames of sun and star
Flash at hand and lure afar.
Larger manhood might we share.
Surer fortune, did we dare.
In our mills of common thought
By the pattern all la wrought.
In our school of life tie man
Drills lo suit tho public plan. . .
And through labor, love and play
Shifts the burden of the day.
Ah, the gods of wood and stone
Can a single saint dethrone,
But the people who shall aid
'Gainst the puppets they have made
First they teach and then obey.
"Pis the burden of the day.
Thunder shall we never hear
In this ordered atmosphere?
Never this monotony feel
Shattered by a trumpet's peal?
Never airs that burst and blow
From eternal summits know?
Though no man resent his wrong,
Stilt is free the poet's song.
Still, a stag, his thought may leap
O'er the herded swine and sheep
And In pastures far away
Lose the burden of the day!
?Bayard Taylor.
FINALLY.
fpHE definition of a gentleman.
Who shows his truly veritable worth.

Cures ihat last ar? cures that tell.
To thoroughly know the virtues of a
medicine you must investigate the
cures and see if they prove perma
nent Doan's Kidney Pills stand this
test, and plenty of proof exists right
here in this locality. People who test
ifled years ago to relief from backache
kidney and urinary disorders, now de
clare that relief was permanent and
the euro perfect Can any Alaskan
sufferer longer doubt the evidence?
J. Prenatt, 311 Third Ave., N., Se
attle, Wash., says: "The relief I re
ceived from Doan's Kidney Pills over
three years ago, has been permanent
and I, therefore, cheerfully confirm
the public statement I gave in favor
of the remedy at that time. For two
years I had attacks of backache and
my kidneys were so weak that the
least cold I contracted settled in them
making my condition worse. Doan's
Kidney Pills promptly disposed of the
pains in my back and regulated the
passages of the kidney secretions. A
the present time there is< not a symp
tom of my former trouble remaining.
I advise anyone afflicted with kidney
complaint to give Doan's Kidney Pills
a trial."
