The Irish sailor declared:
I am right in trim now, but think l
can stand few sessions of good, stiff
exercise before l meet Jeffries.
After tomorrow's program is gone
through my training is over. On Thurs
day and Friday l will loaf, Maybe I
won't enjoy It!
1t won't afford me any more pleas
ure, though than my encounter with
Jeffries on Friday night. 1t sounds
strange, perhaps that fellow should
long to get in the ring and take a
chanceof getting his head knocked off
feel so certain that If any ones head
Is knocked off It won't be mine that l
welcome Friday night more than
would present of $1,000.
For I'm going to win that fight.
That's a sure thing. There's no get
ting away from 1t. l know my condi-
ton; l know l can fight, and l think
I've a pretty good line on just what
Jeffries is capable of doing. This con-
fidence Is not the result of conceit. |
realize that this battle is the most i'm
portant one in which l have figured.
That has been uppermost in my mind
since / started training, and / shant
forget 1t for an instant when | am
fighting Jeffries for the worlds cham
pionship on Friday night.

The champion said yesterday:
My condition is such that from today
until the night of my meeting with
Sharkey further training is unneces-
sary. But I am taking no risks There
is too much at stake. For my friends
there are thousands awaiting the out
come of the conflict. For me there is
the championship of the world-the
title l prize more highly and value
greater than any purse which might
await the winner.
My many admirers who have so fat
tered me as to back my chances need
have no apprehension regarding the
result. That injury to my arm has
caused some talk. But it was only
trifle that passed away completely in
couple of days. 1t interfered hardly
any with my training, and the fact
that / am ready to fight Sharkey this
morning will show whether I suffered
to any extent through the accident
I will step into the ring on Friday
night in finer shape than when | fought
Fitzsimmons / am faster, have some
new blows and am better able to stand
the gait than ever before.

Lost Part of His Hand.

Hamilton, June 22.-That people who
have no business to should not monkey
with printing presses was learned t.
his sorrow by young Roy Morrison, son
of r. M. Morrison of the Nelson Valley
Clothing company, few days ago.
Young Morrison was in the Western
News office, and was standing by an
eighth medium Gordon on which AL
Hork was fixing job. Hork got things
ready and started to set the press run
ming, when Roy, in spirit of careless
ness and fun, grabbed the arm on the
right side. close down to the big cog
wheel, and in a second his hand was
drawn between the arm and the coss,
MASKING to pieces the knuckles in the
hand back of the third and last fingers,
so that pieces stuck to the cogs and
were picked out after He was taken
to a doctor, and Drs. McGrath and
Howard had to cut away the two fin
gers and the entire back side of the
hand. 1t was his left hand, and though
manned for life, it is not quite as bad
as if it had been the right.

r0of-the public roasts the company, but
the company is helpless. If the kickers
would only stop to consider how much
worse it would have been had the warm
wave continued for two days more they
would feel satisfied that things are no
worse than they are The Copper City
Limited was several hours late getting
down from Hamilton yesterday, the de-
lay being caused by the slow transfer
of passengers from Hamilton around
the washed out bridge at Riverside and
some minor washouts this side Of the
big one The westbound train was
couple of hours behind time yesterday
afternoon and the branch trains waited
here for it. The eastbound service has
not been seriously interrupted yet but,
had there been "a hours more of hot
weather. the Clark's Fork river would
have asserted itself and there would
have been some big holes in the tack
west of here.
