JEFFR1Es RELENTs.
Promises to Give sharkey Another
Chance For Championship.

New York, Nov. 9-Jeffries and Shar-
key met on the stage at Roster & Balls
yesterday afternoon. The two heavy
weight pugilists shook hands and made
up.
Sharkey told Jeff that he wanted a
return match as soon as he recovered
from the bruises inflicted last Friday
night by the champion. Jeffries re-
sponded heartily that the sailor should
have the first show when the Californ-
ian again made a worlds championship
match. This is a sudden veering around,
as Jeffries said at first that Sharkey
would have to wait, and that he would
next take on COrbett.

NEW LEAGUE SCHEME.
Propose to Drop Four Clubs to
Strengthen Remaining Cities.


New York, Nov. 9.-Dismayed by the
entirely unexpected strength developed
by the new American Baseball aSSOcia-
ton, the magnates of the National
League are hustIing to head off the
young and sturdy association
A secret meeting of officials of the
National league will be held in this
in the city stopping at as many differ
ent hotel NIagnates Brush of Cincin-
natl, Robson of St. Louis and CleVe-
land, Wagner of Washington, DreyfuSs
of Louisville and Won der Horst of
Brooklyn and Baltimore.
HanlOn and Abel of the Brooklyn
club and President Freedman of the
New York club are in close touch with
the visiting magnates and have had
many consultations with them.
The National league officials do not
want it to appear that they are fright
ened at the strong showing made by
the new league, and are consequently
keeping under cover. but it is a fact
that they realize that something must
be done at once to squelch the new
scheme.
That the officials of the old league de-
sire a reduction to an eight-club circuit
is we'll known and it can be stated with
authority that the present secret meet
ing will result in that most important
and sensational change.
and Louisville will be dropped out or
bought off. This, it is thought, will
leave the old league a clear field in
the cities they desire and it is also ex-
pected will head off the ambitious new
association, which hopes to locate in
New York, Philadelphia, St. Louis and
Chicago.
These strong cities will not be given
up without a fight, and a strong one,
by the new league.

IT WAS SMITHS FIGHT.
Defeated Charley McKeever at New
York Last Night.

New York, Nov. s.-Mysterious Billy
Smith defeated Charley McKeever, of
Philadelphia in a twenty bout
at catchweights at the Broadway Ath-
letic club last night
Smith weighed AS pounds, and his op-
pOnent tipped the scales at about the
same weight. Both men were in prime
condition, and the fight was interesting
from start to finish. AIcKeever used his
left to good advantage in the opening
rounds, sending straight jabs to the
face and neck, and was equally clever
at close quarters as Smith. At the end
of the third round McKeever landed
two straight leftS on Smiths mouth. In
the next he swung a right to Smiths
jaw, and there was plenty of hard and
vicious infighting. In the sixth Nc

Nearly everyone will admit that as
nation we eat too much meat and too
little of vegetables and the grains.
For business men, Office men and
clerks, and in fact everyone engaged in
sedentary or indoor occupations, grains,
milk and vegetables are much more
healthful.
Only men engaged in a severe out
door manual labor can live on a heavy
meat diet and continue in health
AS a general rule. meat once a day is
sufficient for all classes of men, women
and children, and grains, fruit and veg
etables should constitute the bulk of
food ca ten.
But many of the most nutritious
foods are difficult of digestion and it is
of no use to advise brain workers to eat
largely of grains and vegetables where
he digestion is too weak too assimilate
them properly.
It is always best to get the best re-
suits from our food that some simple
and harmless digestive should be taken
after meals to assist the relaxed diges-
tive organs, and several years expert
ence have proven Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets to be a very safe, pleasant and
effective digestive and a remedy which
may be taken daily with the best re-
suits.

People who make a daily practice of

There is no danger of forming an in
