Jeff is a stubborn man and if any one should say to him, You can't go to town tonight" he would slap his hat on his head saying, T. ain't eh? well you watch me go." But he is never has expressed a wish that he has not tried to gratify.
 Mrs. Jeffries is scruplously neat and clean about her house and keeps everything in perfect order. The cosy corners are filled with pretty pillows which she has made. All her table linen is marked with the family in itial, and even the towels have the J. J. J. embroidered on them.
 What are some of your husbands favorite dishes?'
 He eats everything and is not at all fussy about his food. Anything set before him he eats and praises. We have variety on our table, turk ey, chicken, fish, roasts,, salads, pie kles and hot biscuits"
 Thinking of the much -talked-of hy- genie and strengthening feeds, it was remarked that the fighter did not owe his strength to any prescribed line of diet
 "Oh. mo-" she laughed; neither does he get it from the amount of food he eats, for Mir Jeffries is a sniall eater. Every one seems to think he has an appetite in proportion to his size and strength. but this is wrong.
 'The only thing he does not care for is sweets, and so we do not have any rich pies and pastries on our table. All we ever have in the cake line is a lit tie plain coffee cake, sprinkled with sugar When there is a big dinner, he eats it with relish, and when there is not, he never says a word.
 Next to having them say boss my husband, it annoys me most to have

him called dissipated. as 1t is all un- true. He never drinks to excess"
 It was no marriage in haste and re- pent at leisure affair with the Jeffries. He and his wife were acquainted four years before they were married. Her maiden name was Freda Mayer. Mrs. Jeffries' father died when she was a little girl, leaving her mother with sufficient means to keep the family in comfort. Up to the time Of her mar riage, she lived in New York, where her folks still live.
 While she was talking a fox terrier came jumping into the room. Teddy" she called him, was fresh from a chase after a cat in which he had won out He was a thoroughbred fox terrier, a little beauty. Fox terror seemed bet ter suited to his cute ways.
 "A stray cat has taken refuge here. I cannot bear to drive 1t away to starve," she said. f"and I have a pretty hard time to make Teddy a good dog. Yes, my house is a refuge for home less dogs and cats. I often wonder how they know so well where to come to-"
 On the Jeffries' ranch they raise turkeys One night. as they were sit ting around the table playing cards with a prominent hotel man, Jeffries heard a noise outside and spoke up, quickly: There's a coyote after my turkeys. Come, mother, get a light" he called to his wife. Come on, Dick, and We will see if we can't get him."
 
 The two men went to the alfalfa field where the bird had been setting on some eggs just ready to hatch, and. sure enough, the turkey was gone. Feathers strewn through the alfalfa told her fate. Taking up the lantern again, Jeffries started off in search of

elaborate measures already adopted here to combat the spread of the great white plague" T regard it as the duty of every municipality" he says. ito look upon tuberculosis officially as an infectious and communicable dis ease, dangerous to the public health, which must be stamped out. Tuber- culosis, long recognized as one of the most fatal diseases to which the hu- man face is subject, was formerly con- sidered as inherited and unpreventable. Animal experimentation. however. showed that it is not inherited, but that it is communicable and. therefore, preventable I believe that further re- search in the field of animal experi- mentation should earnestly be encOur- aged and not hampered, if We hope eventually to conquer the disease. It is only by this means that a specific treatment may be ultimately be dis covered, as has been the case in diph- theria."

SHE IS NOT KEEPING HIM OUT
 OF THE RING.
There Is No Shop Talk in the Home of Jeffries.

"All this talk about my 'bossing' my husband is absurdly false and ridiculous" so spoke Mrs. James J. Jeffries, wife of the undefeated heavy weight champion of the. world. The pretty little woman looked annoyed as if she felt too big to cry and to mad to laugh" Jim she calls him Jim, ''is not the man who would be henpecked and I would be too wise to try. The idea Of their saying the reason he will not fight Johnson or any one else is because I won't let him. I never interfere with my hus- bands business and that is one of the reasons we are so happy"
 Are you opposed to your husband fighting again?"
 Mrs. Jeffries was noncommittal but finally replied, He can do as he pleases about it We never talk fight at home. Even among his men friends Mir Jeffries does not like to discuss the game.
 We have a lovely home, in fact two, the one in Los Angeles and the ranch in the suburbs. There is only one lnlnS neeOeO 10 make IneHl luedl, and that is a baby. Some women think it hard because they have fam lilies, but I think I am unfortunate because I have none"
 The Herculean prize fighter has fallen in love with one who is exactly his opposite. The powerful man has married an unusually dependent and feminine woman. When she stands beside her husband Mrs. Jeffries re- minds one of the saying,
 T wonder why the tallest man
 Will go with the shortest girl he can?"
 Just as the principal thing to be noticed about him is his strength, so about her is her helplessness. Mrs. Jeffries is a clean-cut little woman, who never uses slang and brides her self on having everything up-to-date and the very latest She plays the newest music, has her house furnished in the most recent style and wears all her clothes of the most fashion able color and cut. In manners she is pleasing. She has plump, well developed, decidedly feminine little figure which makes her look even less than her five feet two. German by birth, she speaks with a slight ac-

SUPERVISOR COFFEY GETS SEVEN YEARS
The "YelIow Dog" Who Broke His Im- munity Contract.

San Francisco, Cal, March D. Former Supervisor Michael w. Coffey, convicted recently of accepting a bribe of $4.000 to vote for a trolley franchise for the United Railroads, was sentenc- ed today by Superior Judge Dunne to seven years imprisonment in the state penitentiary. A motion for a new trial was denied by the judge just previous to passing sentence, but the attorneys for the defense at once gave notice of an appeal.
 In common with all the members of the Schmitz board of supervisors inn plicated in the bribery graft disclos- ures, Coffey confessed before the grand jury to having accepted bribes from various corporations, and for thus aiding the prosecution was granted i'm munity by the district attorneys of flee. Later, however, when called as witness against Tirey l.. Ford and Abe Ruef, he refused to give discriminating evidence. His prosecution, conviction and sentence have followed quickly this breach of the immunity contract.
