JENKINS THINKS
HE WOULD WIN
Champion Wrestler Seems Serious
in His Desire to Figh'
Jefries.

New York. Sept. 1.-THE challenge Of
Tom Jenkins to Jim Jeffries to meet him
in rough and tumble fight caused end~
less comment in sporting circles yester~
day. The wrestler's def was looked upon
very seriously by a majority Of the sport
ing men. The opinion is almost unani-
nous that Jeffries would emerge the wins
ner, should the contest be arranged. JEFF
fries admirers say that he would be sure
to land knockout blow before Jenkins
got close enough to get a hold. Some go
so far as to say that even In straight
wrestling match the pugilist would win.
Many people may regard my challenge
as joke said jenkins yesterday. but
nevertheless am sincere. believe can
beat Jeffries. The only way he could get
me would be by catching me with
knockout punch the first crack out Of the
box If I escaped that blow and got to
close quarters, he would have little
chance. Once had secured hold, JEFF

to say enough his arm would get broken.n

From a balloon shallow

From a balloon shallow places In the
ocean and rocks rising near to the surface
can be seen much more clearly than from
the shore or from shipboard For this
reason the French naval engineer, Re-
maud suggests that a captive balloon
would be a most useful accessory to a.
marine surveying ship. With such bal
loon dangerous waters having shallow
areas and bottoms intersected with mar
row and tortuous channels could be rap
idly charted both by eye observations and
by the aid of photographs taken from the
balloon. OF course soundings would still
be necessary to ascertain the exact depth
of water, but these would be greatly IA
cilitated by the knowledge previously
gained thru the aid of the balloon,

How He Got a Piss.

The following story about James ].
Hill, the railroad president, is told in
the Northwest states: Mr.. Hill was
talking to some friends in hotel lob
by when a young man hustled up to
him and said: Mr.. Hill, you claimed
a year ago that no one need be out
of a job in this part of the coun-
try"
Il did," admitted Mr.. HILL
We'll, your statement is incorrect"
declared the young man. 81 have
been hustling for job for the past
six months and can't get work at any
thing l can do"
That's just it," observed Hill. What
can you do?"
Have several years experience as
a stenographer; am an expert book
keeper; have been a shipping clerk,
and know the business; am an Al ad-
vertising man; also a first-class book
agent" said the young man in one
breath.
1t ended with Mr.. Hill giving him
a letter to the Great Northern Offices
in st. Paul. He was going to try out
the young man and see what was in
him.
THANK you, Mr.. HILL" he calculated
as he hurried away; but in a moment
he was back again.
Say, Mr.. HILL" he asked, do take
the brake beam to st. Paul?"
He got a pass.

MosIey Commission DispIea.ed

During the visit of the Mosley COM
mission to Chicago the members visited
several public schools, seeking point
ers to enlighten EngHshmen, says the
Denver Times. One of the schools Wis
tied was at Palos Park, a little frame
building where about thirty young
SterS were cultiVating their gray mat
ter The youngsters gazed awestruck
at the Englishmen and were made
speeches. when they heard the visit
ors speak. There was one youngster
in the crowd who had his nerve with
him and his tongue in trim, and he
answered to the name of Richard
OConnell. After some commonplace
question as to the methods of the
school, Dick O'Connell made himself
famous in the following dialogue:
The boy in the third seat back,
what's your name?" ~
Richard O'Connell."
You have studied history. What did
we have In 1852"

Against whom was it?" ~
THE British redcoats."
What did we do to them?"

Did we ever have any more trou-
BILE with them?"
Yes, in 1872; we licked them again. .
IF we ever have any more trouble
with them would we lick them?"
you bet" 5i'ta
AT this point one of the commits
sioners lost patience and remarked:
How perfectly ridiculous to teach a
child a thing like that
