In an Interview Today he Stated That
if Jeffres Refused to Meet
Him He VIII Enter
the Ring.
JEFFRIEs LOOKS GOOD
Gives the Retired Champion Credit
of Being Greatest Ring Man
Who Ever Donned
Pair Of Gloves.

James j. Corbett, eX-heavy-weight
champion of the world and at one time
the cleverest boxer the world has ever
produced, stated today in an interview
at the Hotel Keokuk that he would
fight Jack Johnson that he would
weight, if Jeffries continues to refuse
to meet him.
There are two men in the fight world
today whom critics concede a chance
to defeat Johnson, the colored fighter.
They are James Corbett and Jim JEFF
fries.
In speaking of Jeffries today, Cor
bett said he was the greatest fighter
that ever lived and does not compare
the present colored champion with JEFF
fries, when the latter was in his prime.
He is further convinced that JEFF
fries will soon consent to meet the
colored fighter because of the enor-
nous money consideration at stake.
Jeffries could easily make a fortune
in the single ring engagement should
he consent to meet the big colored
fellow.

ABOVE ALL A MAN
SAYS DOLLIVER
Iowa Senator Pays Americas Tribute
to Her First Citizen.

SPRINGFIELD, H., Feb. 13.-Amer-
icas tribute to Abraham Lincoln was
delivered at tn Lincoln centennial
celebration in tllis city Friday after
noon by Senator Dolliver, OF Iowa. He
followed Ambassador Bryce and JUS
ser. who in turn had spoken of the at
lection their native countries had Tor
the martyred president.
THE memory of Abraham Lincoln
is too great to be claimed by pollt-
ical party says Dolliver. too great
to be the heritage of a single nation,
too great to be absorbed in the re-
nown of one century. The ministry
of his life was to all parties, to all ma
tions. and to all ages. But there is
sense in which it is an especial inner
itance of the American people, and IN
a sense still more sacred in wlich 1t
belongs to Springfield; for upon this
city in which he lived and where he
lies buried, the duty rests under the
bonds of peculiar obligation to care
for his fame and to keep his fame.
