Jeffries Starts Training.
specisl to THE Sentinel. I

Hot Springs. Ark, Feb. 14,-The
announcement that Jim Jefsries will
start real training for his coming
battle with Jack johnson is being
hailed with. delight by the pugilistic
fans. The argumentative followers
of the big fellow say that If he can
stand training he surely will defeat
the negro, hence the great interest in
the announcement that Jeff will start
to prepare for the coming bout.
The big Californian recently stated
that he would come here about March
and do little boxing and wrestling
with Frank Gotch and DR.. Roller, but
most of his time will be devoted to
the hot baths and climbing the noun
tains. so as to prepare him for the
hard siege of training to come later.

The doctor came, set the arm, ex-

GRAND JURY AT PROVO;
FIRST In EIGHT YEARS

Special to The Tribune.
PROVO, Dec. 23.-For the first time for
eight years a grand jury has been called
In this district, The last grand jury
was called TO investigate the case Of
Frank Connors, convicted OF killing Po-
liceman William Strong here In 1899,
when the question OF the legality OF his
conviction was raised and there was a
possibility OF his being released from the
state prison, His indictment, under
which he will be tried when released for
the burglary term he is now serving fol-
lowed.
Nothing authoritative as to the reason for
calling the present grand jury can be
learned. except that the inquisitors will
investigate county officers and lnstitu-
tions, IL being considered desirable TO
have such investigations at intervals. II
Is believed. however. that the chief rea-
son for calling q grand jury at this time
is to have an investigation Of local busi
ness combinations said TO exist for the
purpose Of regulating prices Of commodi-
ties offered for sale TO the public. and
ments in the matter Of regulating pro-
fessional charges In some Of the profes-
slons. 1t Is known that citizens have
asked for grand jury for this purpose
and the calling OF the grand jury Is be-
lieved to be mainly in response to this
request.
The grand jurors are; Dave Cur
ley. John e. Cook and William
Leffler. Provo John P. You'd and
John ". Beckstrom. Spanish Fork; A. S
| Clark and Frank Salisbury, Springville
