General News From the World

New York, Nov. ia story has been
floating about town concerning the
fight between Jeffries and Sharkey. 1t
has been claimed that the jab of
hypodermic needle gave Jemries the
decision in the big fight.
That sudden reversal of form, the
quick, active, aggressive fighting that
succeeded the listless defensive work
of the previous rounds, has kept the
average ringsider who was at Coney
Island wondering what marvellous pow
er of recuperation was possessed by
Jeffries. 1t seemed abnormal-and it
was abnormal. Such a sight has, per-
haps, never been seen in the ring be-
fore, and it is not strange that the old
timers We're mystifed.
Jeffries, it will be remembered, was
seized with that tired feeling some
where between the tenth and twelfth
rounds, and whereas he had previously
been doing the greater part of the
fighting, he began from that time to
adopt tactics intended to preserve him
as much as possible from harm and in
jury He dropped into that low, crouch
ing attitude that is recognized as the
JeffrieS pose, and with his left stuck
straight in front of him he stalled the
big Irfshman off as long as possible,
and when Sharkey finally came bull1ng
through his guard he invariably clinch-
ed the sailor and chung to him until
es he lay on the Irishman and thus
saved himself and rested, while also
firing his opponent. From the six
teenth to the twentieth he never struck
a blow that landed and resorted solely
to defensive tactics.
In the nineteenth round Jeffries look
ed as though he couldn't last five min
uteS, and there were remarks all about
the ring to the effect that it was all
over and Sharkey'S bullet-shaped nut
would soon be adorned with the cham
pionship laUrels. Sharkey was fighting
strongly and aggressively. He was in
next to Jeffries as soon as he left his
corner in every round, and stuck to his
man like a terrier to a rat.
In the twentieth round the tables
were turned in a way that surprised
men who have been watching ring bat
ties all their lives The big, hairy
chested boilermaker, who had gone to
his corner like a beaten man, and who
had dropped YEARLY and weakly into
his chair, bounded into the middle of
the ring at the tap of the gong like a
big grizzly. and from the moment he

reached his feet began fighting and

reached his feet began fighting and
never stopped.
The explanation of this remarkable
occurrence is to be found in the "dop-
ing of Jeffries. 1t is told that at the
end of the nineteenth round one of his
second slipped the point of a hypoder-
mic needle under the CalifOrnian's skin
and injected into him a liberal squirt of
mixture of nitryglycerin, strychnia, ar
senic and caffeine This was not the
first injection, but those previously
made were intended simply to keep the
champion going, and the big dose was
for the purpose Of putting the ginger
into him at once. 1t succeeded.
Nitroglycerin is one of the greatest
heart regulators known. and is fire.
Quently given to men whose vitality
has sunk to a point where nothing else
will have effect 1t is powerful and
quick in action and has. in many cases,
saved me when the heart action has
ceased entirely. When administered to
sound and healthy man it's immedi-
ate effect is to invigOrate and strength
en- the heart in a remarkabl way.
Strychnia Is tonic pure and simple,
and it is because of this fact that it
causes death When taken in large
quantities spasms are caused, resulting
fatally. In small quantities it is the
most magnificent bracer known and as
such was used on Jeffries. Arsenic pre-
vents the deterioration of the red cor
puseles in the blood and retards the
waste OF vital tissue. Caffeine is a Sc
dat1ve and is also used as a safe vehicle
for the administration of the other
drugs.
The immediate effect of such an in
lection as that described is wonderful,
and in all respects resembles the
changes noted in the case of Jeffries

Such a mixture is usually given in

Dope" of the same character was
used a short time ago in the fight be-
tween Jack O'Brien and Jim Kearns
It was unwisely administered and the
'doped" man lost. Kearns was given
a pellet made up Of the drugs describ-
ed and went in like a whirlwind for
three rounds. By this time however,
the effect of the dose, which was far too
small, began to wear off and Kearns
ran up against a smash on the jaw that
landed him on Queer street As a re-
suit Of the use of the dope he was out

we worship, and the other on the pro-
perty on Third and Quincy streets.
Aside from this, you have laid found
alton ready for the erection of a new
house OF worship at a cost of nearly
100000, all of which has been paid.
And today, the only Indebtedness of the
church is a balance of $4,000 on a mort
gage OF S600.00, bearing interest at the
rate of six per cent per annum, made
over ten years ago on this property.
The trustees have arranged for the set
Element of this debt without financially
embarrassing the church.
The total amount raised during my
paStorate for all purposes is over $12,-
10000, and nearly that amount has been
expended, with still a balance of over
six hundred dollars with which to be-
gin the new year. When we reflect that
this has been accomplished despite the
many conflicts through which we have
been compelled to pass, it must be adj
mitted that this is a vast Improvement
on our beginning six years ago. Every
step which we have taken in the
achievement of this end has met with
the bitter opposition of those who, by
dlSOrderly conduct, forfeited all right
and title to membership and church
property, and who have not since 1894
contributed anything what ever, either
morally or financially toward the ad-
va 1cement or support of the church.
OUR SUNDAY SCHOOL.
This department of our church work
has been a potent factor in the develop
ment of the youth, and during these
six years more than one hundred have,
through the faithful 1abors of the sup
erintendents and teachers, been brought
to knowledge of Christ At no time
has the Sunday school had a more ear
nest, efficient and cOnsecrated la,bOrer
than its present superintendent, Mr.. w
Z. Stewart, and every member of the
church should see to it that their chill
dren are, each sabbath, brought under
his influence and that of his cohort of
teachers.
OUR CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR So
GETTY.
This branch of our work. organized
five years ago, stands forth today as
one of Gods brightest agencies in pro-
noting the growth of the young chris
tian and encouraging him to greater
usefulness in the masters cause.
Take courage, ye people CT God; lift
up your hearts and rejoice, for your re-
demptiOn draweth nigh" Take cOur-
age, We fearful saints, your king is the
almighty God. He shall conquer all
your enemies He is able to protect
you against the combined forces of
earth and hell. Christ is the captain
of your salvation. He is God manifest
in the flesh. the brightness of his faith
er's glory, and the express image of His
person. He is the true God, the eternal
life. He is the root and offspring of
David, the bright and morning star.
Christ is able, not only to set up His
church, but has declared that the gates
of hell shall not prevail against it.

When took charge of the church, I
found a debt on the church property of
over 5000, upon which you We're paying
as interest alone, annually over $500.
There was due your former pastor on
back salary for the fourteen months
of his pastOrate $40. and a debt of s35
due the sexton for four months ser
vices; and for incidental expenses a
debt of $50. And there was not one dol
lar in the church treasury with which
to meet your obligations. During my
pastOrate, these six years, the church
has been enabled to meet all of its ex-
penses each month and at the close of
each year to have a little balance on
hand with which to begin the work
Of the new year. Not once during my
administration have you been called
upon to put forth any extra efforts in
the way of giving entertainments to
raise your pastors salary. and at no
time have you been compelled to mort
gage your property as you had been
previously compelled to do to meet the
salaries of two of your former pastors,
and this Notwithstanding you have paid
me a larger salary than any of the
pastors that had preceded me.

hanging over the church, two have been
cancelled. One on this property in which
