TASTED Forty Days.

The attention of the medical frater.
nifty Of the state of Washington is be-
ing attracted by the remarkable 40
day fast recently accomplished by Mrs.
Jennie Jenkins at Olympia. Mrs. Jen-
kins is about IS years OF age. and only
five feet five inches in height.
Before her fast she weighed 300
pounds. The fat had accumulated on
her legs between the knee and ankle
until the skin was about to crack with
the pressure and life was simply a
burden to the unfortunate woman. She
could scarcely walk or turn over in
bed. Her muscles almost refused to
support her. She was advised by DR..
Strickland to refrain entirely from
food and on May 81 took her last meal.
For 40 days and 40 nights not a crumb
Of food in any shape or form passed
her lips. At the end Of that time she
had lost 80 pounds Of flesh and was
much improved in health. She was
very weak after her experience, and
for a few days only partook OF cruel
and extremely light food, but now is
eating two meals day. although she
will always abstain from breakfast
and diet very sharply to keep from
regaining her superabundance Of flesh.

scandinnviaps Are Coming.

Copenhagen, July 2s.-The transport
lines here are coping with the greatest
rush of Scandinavian emigration to the
United States since the S0s. Every out
going vessel, Scandinavian or American,
is crowded. The Oscar III of the Scandi-
navian- American line, is taking 1000 emf
grants on each trip. Two sister ships
will now be hurried toward completion
in order to handle the traffic. The cause
of this rush is the unprecedented hard
times throughout Scandinavia, as well as
the more stringent conscription laws in
Sweden. The emigants are mostly Of an
excellent class and are bound chiefly to
the western states, where they will settle
on agricultural lands. The total number
of emigrants which left this port for the
United States during the nine months end
ing with March, 1902, were:
Denmark, 1882; Norway, s049; Sweden,
1901.

with Jenr1eS i was doped. His snow
ing proved to me conclusively that my
defeat at his hands in our previous
battle was unwarranted."
Asked why he did all the leading,
Fitzsimmons Indignantly denied the al
legation, and said that Jeffries did a
great deal of the work, especially in
the clinches and at close range.
"He is as strong as an OK, and his
blows hurt me considerably, especially
his terrific lefts to the body" said
Fitzsimmons.
Asked in regard to his plans for the
future. Bob facetiously remarked:
Il am going back to Bensonhurst and
attend to the development of the youth
of America and try to make them like
me-a vigorous old man, past his 40th
year and as hale and hearty as a man
well within his thirties."
At this juncture. DR.. L. c. Cox, who
had been summoned to attend the
fighter, commenced an examination of
the defeated pugilist. After careful
examination the doctor announced that
Fitzsimmons' ribs were not broken.
but that his left side was badly
bruised, the muscles being SO con-
stricted as to cause the Cornishman
great difiiculty in breathing. Clark
Ball, Fitzsimmons' manager, express
ed his opinion that Bob was too con-
fident.
When the referee had counted Fitz.
simmons out and he had congratulated
Jeffries he walked to the side of the
ring and flinging one Of the gloves he
had drawn from his hand to the right
and the other to the left among the
spectators, declared in loud voice
he had fought his last fight.
Upon an examination being made by
a surgeon after the fight, it was found
that Jeffries' nose was broken. The
champion was not aware of the injury
until the excitement Of the battle hao
worn of. Jeffries believes the injury
was received in the second or third
round from one of Fitzsimmons' left
jabs on the bridge Of the nose. The
champion declared he felt no pain from
the injury and would soon be in good
shape again. He spent the night at
the baths.
Tells of Jefrs Hurts.
San Francisco, July 2S.-Dr. William F.
Frederick, who attended Champion james
J. Jeffries' injuries and repaired his broken
nose, made the following statement COLI
cerning his injuries:
"The condition of Jeffries face would
make it evident to any one that Jeffries
was not engaged in fake fight. The
condition of his face showed the punish
ment which he received was enough 10
have put out a fighter who did not pos.
sess the extraordinary staying powers of
the champion. The confused wounds On
the right infraorbital and left supmor-
bital margins, as well as the detected
condition Of the septum of the nose, prove
what force the blows must have exerted.
Had these blows been rained on one OF
less staying powers the fight would have
been over long before the eighth round.
The other visible effects of Ftzsimmons'
blows show or prove that an honest at
tempt was made to turn the victory t.
ward the loser"
