In the Realm of Sports
WILL SURELY FIGHT
AGAIN
MONEY IN SIGHT TOO BIG INcEN.
TIVE FOR JEFFRiES TO
TURN DOWN.

New York, Jan. 19.-Jim Jeffries is
still working like beaver every day
They all go back for just one more
hight.
Jeffries Is like the rest of them. He
is sure to pull on the gloves for an
other fight. AS Digby Bell says, jeff
has no more chance of staying out
of the game than a terrier with tai
low legs has chasing an abestos cat
through hades. John l.. Sullivan

took one more chance and fought
Jim Corbett.
Bob FitZsimmons, after he had been
out of the game a year or so, came
back and let Lii Artha johnson bump
him on the jaw for the count.
Terry McGovern jumped back into
the ring only to let Bat Nelson ham
mer him around.
Jack Dempsey returned to the arena
after booze had made him a wreck and
Tommy Ryan beat him until it was
stopped.
They all do it.
Jeffries never did love the fighting
game. He hated to fight. He was
big and strong and clever. It was
an easy way to make a fortune, and
he followed it up, but he was never
really in love with the game, as Terry
McGovern or Fitzsimmons or Nelson
or any natural scrapper was.
Jeff is offered battle with john
son. He is training daily at Los
Angeles, and sending out wires every
morning saying that he will never
fight again.
He is kidding himself, and he will
find just as sure as death and taxes
that such is the case.

artists and, under Graeco- Roman rules,
is considered to be invincible and the
peer Of either George Hackenschmidt
the Russian lion; Sbysco, Padoubney
or Peterson.
The all -conquering Teuton was feted
by his countrymen prior to his depar-
ture as only Germans can fete, and
when he gets here all the New York
enthusiasts have arranged to meet the
young giant at the dock in Hoboken,
where parade, consisting of members
of the various SGerman societies and
Turn Verein organizations will start,
preceded by full brass band. Sieg-
fried will be escorted to an open ba>
rouche, which will be drawn by four
sturdy horses, and a gala day is in
store for him.
His first appearance on the mat in
this country will be at Madison Square

within 30 minutes, actual wrestling
time, or forfeit $500. The inducement
should attract the attention of Joe

The appearance of the big foreigner

larry as Professor William Muldoon
will appear in the capacity of referee.

speaker. "They will learn their les

HThere never is moment in any
city when good government can not be

is right in the peoples hands, and as
soon as the people pay one hundredth
as much attention to public business
as they do to private business, good
government will result. -

word was used by the speaker, is not

how the votes 60 The speaker re-
ferred to the unwieldy Boards of Su-
pervisors and Aldermen elected and the
powers given them, making them all
mayors, while into their irresponsible
hands the people abdieate their power.
Now this power must be wrung back
by the people by force of numbers and
the bosses must go.
''The voters must be educated into
voting intelIigently," continued the
speaker. CAT present they do not vote
inteligently, being led by party labels
and by blind politics or personal
preiudices When vote is between A
and B, the voter often votes for the
man whose personality most appeals to
him, not on the merits of the men for
the position; but, when a concrete ques-
ton is put before the voter he usually
votes right. -
This concrete question is the man
ner in which the voters are asked to

tions and questions in cities under com
mission government, the practical ref

England cities, the charter will provide
for a mayor to be elected for four
wears, while at the end Of two years d
vote will be taken on the question:
"Shan there be an election for mayor
in two years?i' If the people are salts
fed, the mayor will continue to hold
office until the people are dissatisfied
and ask for an election, at which cleo
ton the incumbent s name goes on the
ticket with any other candidates.

OUR TOURIST BOOM.

The Friend.-Among the many bless
ings which the promotion of worldwide
travel to Hawaii is sure to bring, that
of free criticism of ourselves and of
our insular way of doing things viii
not be the least. Two railroad men of
large prominence have just visited the
volcano and have called attention in no
unequivocal language to the inexeus-
ably short-sighted and vexatious policy
of the Hilo railroad in despatching
train to the volcano just before the ar
rival of the Honolulu boat and COM
pelling all passengers to put In long,
tedious wait before the next train
leaves. 1t has done little good for
Islanders to complain of this, but when
two men of such commanding influence
in the travelling world point out how
certain such a policy is to discourage
tourists, it will bear fruit. After all, it
pays to treat newcomers as you would
be treated if you weTs new. Make
every provision for enabling travellers
to see the best, to facilitate their every
comfort, and they will want to come
again and tarry longer. They also will
send scores of others. Tie phrases,
"perfect accommodations, ~ every
possible comfort,'' mean volumes to
American travellers. We have found it
hard to get visitors to 90 to the vol
cano simply because of the Justice Of
the very criticisms passed upon the
Hilo trip by these visiting railroad men.
Some day railway will run from ka-
waihae to Hilo, connecting with rapid
steamer to and from Honolulu, and then

the past, Hilo viii come TO its OWL as
