sport and revel in the dope OF
pugilism, baseball, horse racing and
thhe like, know that Jim Jeffries
was born not far from Columbus,
O. But none know that his birth
place was near the winter quarters
of the old Sells show at what is
called Sellsville.
He used to put in much time
about the circus training barn, and
being big and husky, one of the
Sells brothers took delight in get
ting him to wrestle with a large
bear the show had. This bear is
now SO years old and will be here
with the Sells-Floto circus next
week, Thursday and Friday. The
show people call bruin Big jim,
after Jeffries. With the old Sells
show was an alleged champion
scrapper and Jim Jeffries first
donned tights and boxed and bested
this circus scrapper in the Sells
circus concert at Columbus, O.
This put him in the game of pugil-
ism: it was his start, and not many
know it.
At Los Anglese for the Sells
Floto circus JEFF on the last night
of the engagement, put on tights,
entered the ring under the circus
tent and boxed his brother and two
unknowns. besting easily the trio.

plays. After the Miners scored
five runs in the first inning Pitcher

state the water supply Of New Mexico
Is her greatest natural resource. Ir
rigation is in a comparatively early
state of development and water power
development is still in the primitive
stage. To illustrate, recent computa.
tons show that 1t is possible to de.
velop over twenty-five thousand horse
power on the Pecos River and its trib-
utaries, over seventy-five thousand in
the Canadian River drainage, one hun
dred thousand In the San Juan; three
hundred thousand in the Rio Grande,

Out OF all this power less than eight

utilized. The San Juan River has an
average annual run-off of one and

a mere fraction of this supply being
used either for power or irrigation.
