JEFFORDS QUIT.
HOnOrS were easy Tor IOm Snarkey
last night, when he won his second
battle within eight days, for Jim JEFF
fords, the big Californian, was an cas-
Ter proposition than old Joe Goddard
proved TO be for the sailor, Referee
Malachy Hogan counting Jeffords out
after one minute AM six seconds of
fighting in the second round.
The fight was fast one while it last
ed. and Jeffords made showing in the
opening round that was surprise to
all, including the sailor but spoiled
all by allowing himself to be counted
out, when 1t was apparent to judges Of
pugilism that ii was pure ease Of
quitting. The men agreed to do no hit
ting In the clinches, but there We're to
protect themselves in the breakaways.

The finish came most unexpectedly
after Sharkey rushed Jeffords into
corner, where they clinched. Just as
they broke the sailor hooked left to
the head, and promptly crossed his
right, Jeffords falling to the well-pad-
ded floor where he remained until the
necessary ten had been rolled off.
His seconds assisted him to his cor
ner, where his sudden revival made the
affair look the more suspicious, partic-
ularly as he leaped lightly over the
ropes showing not the slightest sign
of dizziness. He also made a speech
to the crowd, claiming that he had
been fouled. his claim being that Shar-
key landed the alleged knockout blow
in clinch, and said that he would be
pleased to fight the sailor again. Many
in the crowd were inclined to the be-
lief that a foul had been committed,
but those close to the ringside knew
that Sharkey's arms were free before
the last blows were struck, and Refer
ee Hogan, who crtainly was in the best
position to know, had no hesitancy in
saying that in his opinion Jeffords was
not out, but did not care to go further
in such gruelling fight.
RUHLIN AFTER FITZSIMMONS.
The latest pugilist to make reply in
answer to Bob Fitzsimmons' def is
Gus Rubin, the "Akron Giant" says a
New York special. Billy Madden, his
manager, says: II have tried to cover
Fitzsimmons' forfeit during the past
two days, but have been told that when
the money was deposited Ruhlin's
name was not mentioned. Isn't this
singular? Hasn't Rubin the right to
seek n contest with Fitzsimmons?
Look at his record. 1t is nearly as
brilliant as that of Bob. And hasn't
Rubin fought Jeffries, the present
champion draw? That makes him
on n par with Jeffries, who has not
shown his superiority over him. And
Jeffries, remember, knocked Fitzsim-
mons out. I'm not boasting or making
any bold assertions, but if Fitzsim-
mons will agree to take Gus on, he
(Ruhlin) will undertake to stop Fitz-
simmons in 16 rounds. In case of
failure Gus doesn't want cent.
will leave it to the public If Rubin
ought not to get the first crack. Should
Fitz decide to look elsewhere, Rubin
will meet either Sharkey or Kid Nc
Coy. We want these fellows, because
we can get lot Of money meeting
them. l have matched Rubin to meet
Yank Kenney at the Broadway A. G. in
% round bout next month"
GRIFFO AND WHITE.
Young Critic, who fell from grace in
Chicago recently has been matched to
fight Tommy White at Chicago next
month. He is preparing for the go at
West Baden, Ind, He is said to be
rapidly rounding into his old time
form.

HAD A PROMISE
But 1t Came From the Wrong
Source.

Mr.. John w. Melton. of South Akron.
will be candidate for reelection as
trustee of Coventry township. Mr.
Melton had expected, lin the event of
Maj. Gen. Dicks debating the appoint
ment of the Northeastern Ohio mem
Der of the Board OF Penitentiary Man
ayers, to receive an appointment to a
position IN the penitentiary under
promise from Dick, but since Coy.
Nash has exercised his own judgment
in the matter of making the appoint
ment, Mr.. Melton has been shut out. 1t
Is thought that the new Board Of Man
ayers will have something to do be-
sides honoring Dick promises.

The Insurgent Jig is Up.

One of the mendicant insurgent organs
of Philadelphia says;
Colonel Quay knows better than any
one can tell him that his failure TO con-
troll the OF ganization of either house OF
the legislature would make any further
pretense of his candidacy entirely hope
less. He would no longer be able to de-
ceive the most devoted of his worship
pers, or keep up the least show of possi-
BILE success. He knows to-day that he
has notrhe votes to control either house,
For five years the morning newspapers
of Philadelphia, with the single exception
of the Inquirer, which is not for sale at
any price, have been hired 10 lie.
They have lied persistently and con-
sstently and not once have they won a
political victory. They are still in busi-
ness at the old stand, held in the mighty
grasp of page advertisement. There is
not one of them that dares speak the
truth or print the facts for fear of losing
its bread and butter.
The truth about t situation is just
this:
Mr.. Snyder will be chosen president OF
the senate. He has the votes, and moth
ing but death can change the result, not
even the vast amount of money that the
insurgent agents are placing in the mar
ket for the purchase of strength.
Mr.. Marshall will be elected speaker OF
the house, and there is not enough money
among the boilers to purchase his defeat
The organization of both the senate and
the house is definitely settled, for the
votes are pledged.
Senator Quay has in his pocket the
written promises of a majority of the
membership of the legislature, promises
made and signed since the election, an(
within few days.
The insurgents and boilers and mem
bers of the Flinn-Martiu brigade ofparty
wreckers can put this in their pipe ant
smoke it.
Their jig to smash the Republican par
ty is up. And now that it is up, not
single insurgent should be recognize
hereafter and allowed to enter Republi
can convention.
Members of the legislature will choos
at Harrisburg whether they will renal
Republicans or be classed with the CUTIE
Democrats in future.-Inquirer.

IT is computed that the list Of pension
ers has passed the million mark, as on
the first of July the official report showed
993, 500 names on the list, starting with IL
widows and daughters Of the revolution
airy soldiers. New laws going into effect,
with the additions from tho Cuban and
Philippine wars, added several thous-
ands. And the end is not yet; for there
are 1876, ,1O4 pension claims pending, but
most of these are for increases, there be-
ing only l55, $3.50 claims for original pen
sions. Last year 1924 pensioners were
dropped from the list by reason of death
in nearly all the cases.
