One of Most serious In Years.
The wreck was one Of the most Sc
rious that has happened on the Rock
Island system in years, Between Kan

and as there are no general offices OF
either road in this city, details Of the
disaster We're obtained with difficulty.
The wreck coming, as it did at
small station with few facilities for aid,
and in the darkness, there was much
delay in eXtricating the dead and in
jured and in caring for the latter.
The train was composed of a combi-
nation baggage and mail car, a regular
car a smoker, tourist sleeper and

"IEFF" FORCETS
HIS APPETITE
Trudges Over the Mountains
for Twenty Hours Without
Tasting Morsel of Food
BRINGS DOWN TWO DEER
Does Some Light Stunts in
the Gym and Proposes to
Begin Boxing Right Away
Special Dispatch to The Call.

HARDIN SPRINGS. Aug. 15.-The
champion arrived at the Springs late
last night after one of the hardest
day's hunting he ever experienced. For
more than twenty hours JEFF tramped
and trudged through the wilds of the
Lake County Mountains without tast-
ing g. norsel Of food. When he arrived
at the hotel he was tired, but the way
he went to the big feed was a sight for
any weakling to behold.
The big fellow brought back two
deer and about twenty doves. He was
so engrossed in the work of chasing the
antlered beauties over the hills that he
forgot all about eating. After he had
brought the two big bucks to the
ground and filled his bag with the
smaller game jeff began to realize it
was a long time between meals in the
hills, so he turned his steps homeward,
bringing with him a special appetite.
The first place he made for was the
pantry Down into the refrigerator he
dug and brought out a couple OF big
steaks. a handful of choice chops and
some other things that looked good.
The cook was told to get busy, and in
half an hour the champ was Furnishing
the good things for a fare-ye-welL
He went to bed early. after satisfying
his appetite, and arose in the morning
looking fine and dandy. Before break
fast he did a ten-mile run and then felt
like putting another big meal under his
belt. When this task was complete the
big fellow took to the gym for an hour
or so and practiced on the various ma
chimes.
During the afternoon he lolled around
the hotel, swapping stories with Colo
mel Martin Brady, Eddie HanIon, Dick
Adams and other notable lights Of the
sporting world who are at present at
the Springs. After supper he again
went into the gym and spent another
busy hour with the various apparatus.
He has not done much boxing up to
the present time, but will commence
tomorrow and his sparring partners
are getting ready for the big stunt. He
appears in perfect condition. though his
wind needs a little more tuning up, and
he can also afford 10 take of a few
pounds of superfiuous flesh. There are
hints in the air that JEFF will weigh
fully 245 pounds when he enters the
ring with Munroe.
Mrs. Jeffries has not been well for
the last few days and this seems to
worry the big fellow. He spends much
OF his time with her, attending to her
every want and doing everything he
7 can 10 pieaSe her Billy Delaney ex-
presses himself as being perfectly sat
isfied with the form the big fellow has
shown.

WE'LL KNOWN CLUBMAN
RETURNS FROM ABROAD
Jeremiah Lynch, Fresh From His Fis-
tic Encounter Aboard Liner
Deutschland, Home.


jeremiah. Lynch, well known club
man, miner and writer, who has been
abroad for several months, has re-
turned to this city. He signalized the
fact last evening by giving a dinner at
the St Francis Hotel. He has not yet
made his appearance at the Bohemian
Club, his usual haunt, but friends at
tribute this dereliction to his recent ex-
citing experience aboard the German
liner Deutschland on the eve of its ar
rival in New York, when he was re-
ported by wire as the victor In a fistic
encounter with a prominent Spanish
American.
a young and beautiful Partisan, Mar
guerlte Fourchen, in whose welfare
Lynch is supposed to have become in
terested, involved him in a quarrel
with the South American, who proved
an easy mark for the Californian S
right arm blows and was promptly
felled to the vessels deck. AS a result
Of this incident the young French
woman was detained on Ellis Island
and sent back to Europe on the same
steamship that had brought her west
ward. Lynch's friends assert that the
notoriety thus gained has aroused his
diffidence and that he will remain away
from his club until his presence in the
city has become generally known and
gossip over the New York harbor
scene has worn itself out.
