the shore of Buena Vista lake, which is

the water contains minerals that will
render it unsatisfactory for boiler use.
So far trials have failed to show any
injurious effects from the use of the
water.

Sullivan was heart broken, but
the blood that flowed at FontenOy
boiled up in his veins and he de-

things. And he did. His work for
the. next few days was a reyela-
tion, and when the day for the

Forced TO Make Speech.
AS Jeffries drove up Broadway
he was greeted on all sides By
cheers. The news of his arrival
had preceded him and the driver
had the time OF his life in getting
his team to the door of the hos
telry. At the Hotel Albany an
other crowd greeted the big fight
er and there he was forced to
make another speech before the
enthusiasts would allow him TO
go to his rooms.
Jeffries looks to be In exceilen,
condition. There is no doubt
about that. His eyes are clear;
he has a fine color; his walk is as
elastic as an eighteen-year-old
and he looks as fit as when he
put James J. Corbett down for the
count at their first meeting.
All the fight fans here now be-
lfeve that JEFF intends to do battle
with the negro and .oday he Is
the most popular man In New
York. There is no use talking,
say the fans, JEFF means business.
