Why somo Ministers Fall.

There are a few ministers that
have known that will never succeed
In getting outsiders to come to church
unless they meet with wonderful
change. I will hint at few things
where they stand In their own light;
too busy with their own thoughts 20
recognize people or speak when they
meet them; others SIT and read the
Bible or religious papers all the time
when they ought to be in social con-
verse. Then there are others that are
altogether too free with their advice.
We have thought sometimes, why
can't some ministers learn that doc
tors, lawyers, merchants, carpenters
masons and farmers are all supposed
20 know their own business better
than ne does. Talking 400 much about
what we are not sure OF may maxi
people lose all confidence in us when
we give them good scriptural advice.
Let me illustrate by telling OF 1T
tie incident that tried the other day.

In Great Spirits and Says He
Will Lick Jeffries in
Eighteen Rounds.

San FRANCISCO, Cal, June 13.-Jack
Joinson's workout yesterday, before one
OF the largest crowds that has yet patron
lied his Sunday exhibitions, proved an
impressive performance throughout. An
assembage of experts, made up of visit
ing sporting writer's from the east and
a number of fight enthusiasts, witnessed
the afternoons program and joined in
pronouncins Johnson's showing uncom-
monty good.
The big black seemed to take his work
as a frolic. His thick lips rolled back 20

stepped on the stage of the pavilion, and
he kept smiling all the time.
The crowd enjoyed the horseplay he
and Al Kaufman and a couple of the ne
gro's sparring partners INDUCED in with
the medicine ball, and 1t applauded the
heavy flashing he gave the punching bags.
These preliminaries whetted the watchers
appetite for the boxing that followed, and
every minute of Johnson's fast and rough
mixing with Kaufman was enjoyed.
Kaufman again was on the aggressive
and bored into his huge adversary with
out hesitation. The white fighter ap-
peared in grim earnest about his part of
the workout, but Johnson never once cX-
hibited any concern over the formers
strenuous efforts, nor did he relax his
Johnson's glove became wedged between
kaufmans left side and arm, and to
show the strength of his mighty right.
Johnson lifted his Compound opponent al

round OF applause.

Jeff MORE CONFIDENT
AS FIGHT DRAWS NEAR
Boxes With Corbett and Says
He Is Pleased With His
Condition.

BEN LOMOND. Cal, June 13.-It was
such a big day for Jim Jeffries yesterday
that he is expected to put in most of to-
day resting up from his Sabbath eXer-
tons
Jim Corbett and Joe Choynski returned
to camp yesterday with big visiting
delegation that came from San Francisco
in a special train. Promoter Tex Richard
was in the party and he became Jeffries'
guest at luncheon. Richard would not
enter into details of all that the two
discussed over their buttermilk. but he
chatted freely Of the confidence he said
Jeffries had expressed of his ability to
deprive Jack Johnson of the heavyweight
championship title.
"Jeffries surely thinks he's going to
win,'' said Richard He told me he was
fully satisfied with his condition and sure
he can do himself justice. There has
been some criticism because 1. since my
appointment as a referee, have visited the
camps of the two fighters. but l do that
because l want to be frlendlY with ooth
of them Jeffries has asked me how the
colored fighter looks and Johnson has
asked me the same thing about Jeffries.
/ always give each the same answer
that the other man is in tiptop shape
Richard stated that he has not dis
principals.
II don't think need to- he explained.
It am sure it will be an easy fight to
referee Both Johnson and Jeffries have
volunteered TO clear up any point / might
be hazy about, but so far I have not
asked either for any advice"
The picture fight deal is likely to keep
Richard here throughout the day.
Jeffries was in the best of spirits yes
terday and during his sparring he kept
up running fire Of bantering chatter
with his opponents.
solid smash that COrbett landed on
his chin did not interrupt the flow Of talk
for a minute. Hurt your hand. didn't
you?" was the conversational counter to
Corbett's hook. He was spcrtive also
with Farmer Burns in their wrestling
bout. and it amused the crowd to see
Jeffries toy with the veteran mat man
as though he was a child.
1t develops that Corbett really did hurt
his hand in landing on Jeffries' jaw His
thumb was painfully strained, but the
injury is probably not serious enough to
interfere with his boxing.
Changes have been made in the new
outdoor ring to suit Jeffries' idea, and a
good deal of boxing is looked for in the
open arena in the pext week or two.
Corbett and Jeffries are slated to get to-
gether daily from now on.
