THE CHAMPION OF THE WORLD.


James j Jeffries the present star of
the pugilistic world and hero in more
ways than one will present at the Aud
itorium next Wednesday night, March
5th, Clay NJ. Greene's new American
play entitled "a Man from the West.
The scenes of this piece are laid in far
off Montana in the heart of the Rocky
Moutains. Real Western life is truly
depicted. Mr.. Jeffries enacting the
part of a Western sheriff, the loyalty of
the cowboys and citizens of that vicin-
ity for the chief of the law are vividly
illustrated. The success which Mr..
Jeffrles scored in the spectacular pro-
duction of Around New York in Eigh-
ty Minutes" last season is largely re-
sponsible for his present starring tour,
he having demonstrated in that merry
spectacle that he possessed consider
able histrionic talent. Incidental to
the performance of "A Man From the
West" Mr. Jeffries presents a spirited
exhibition of sparring as well as bag
punching and other interesting ath-
letic feats. "A Man from the West
is play specially calculated to attract
ladies and children. Seats on sale at
