JEFFRIES DRAWS BLOOD
 IN MATCH
Lands Heavily on Bob Armstrong's Mouth in Fast Three. Round Bout
 With Negro.

Ben Lomond, Cal, June 9-Three fast rounds with Bob Armstrong, in which Jeffries drew blood from his colored sparring partner for the first time since training began at Ben Lomond, constituted the pricipal fea- ture of a comparatively quiet day. isJeffries was faster than usual and countering heavily on the negro's mouth made the blood flow freely.
 Jeffries and Corbett did not box. but will probably don the gloves to- morrow, as the outdoor boxing plat form was completed late this even- ing. All of today's work was done in the morning
 After the bout with Armstrong, Jeffries tussled a few moments with Farmer Burns and a short period at the neck machine completed the workout in camp. Later in the day Jeffries, accompanied by Farmer Burns and Roger iCornell, climbed Ben Lomond, returning to camp about 5 o'clock. Jeffries this after noon reiterated his statement that no difficulty had arisen between himself and Manager Berger. Jeffries dis played considerable warmth in branding the reports of trouble with his manager as coming from trouble makers.
 Tt is very easy for me to figure out just why these stories float down from San Francisco" said Jeffries Trouble makers would like to see this camp in the air like the other fellows. After this I am not going to pay any attention to the rumors. We are just a happy family down here and nobody is going to break up our combination"

It is well known fact that W. II. Martin, Of Hot Springs, is consider ing the proposition and Attorney I. Havis Nixon of Pine Bluff, recent nominee for prosecuting attorney of the Eleventh Judicial District, is not to be overlooked among the possibil- fties. Hon. s. VI. Taylor, recent chairman Of the state convention, and others of equal popularity and in fluence are mentioned At any rate. there promises to be a lively fight for the office and the race gives ev- cry indication of being an interesting one.
 The Hot Springs Bulletin says Senator R. D. Rasco of Arkansas county. has announced his candidacy for the congressional job from the Sixth district, but the Bulletin ob- iects seriously to his nomination. It hasn't overlooked Rasco's actions in the Greaves-Sumpter contest in Gar land county and his loyalty to Stump ter, when Senator Hamp Williams was declared the nominee of the Democratic party of Garland county.
 In discussing the matter the Bulle- tin says.
 Senator Rasco is not suitable con- eressional timber Arkansas has no use for men of his caliber in con- gress or in any other representative body. Arkansas needs men of un- questionable fairness; men who are big enough to give every honest man his dues regardless altogether of creed or party. A man who can not do this is too small for the dignified
 position of representative in con- gress. We say that Senator Rasco can not do it because he did not do it. He preferred to espouse the cause of ring rule and selfishness un- der the spacious plea that a Republi- can, be he ever so able and ever so trustworthy, has no rights under the flaw which Democrats are bound to respect, and in adopting this course he forfeited every claim he might
 have had on the people for support He should think better of his decis- ion and remain in private life.

"JOE ITS" JOB-?

It was generally stated in Littlt Rock this week that David A.

There are all kinds of ru. mors concerning others who are said to be figuring on gettin' in," but no ocficia1 announcements have been made by them of their intentions.

TOO MANY COOKS
SPOIL THE BROTH

The anti-Davis faction accomplish ed little at the recent State Demo- cratic convention that might have been detrimental to United States Senator Jeff Davis in his coming con- test for reelection. If anything the Robinson, Brundidge and Donaghey supporters fell flat in their efforts along that line. Those who oppose the reelection of Senator Jeff Da- wis, and there were no few anti-Da- wis men enrolled at the recent Little Rock gathering, had an eX- cellent opportunity to put a damear on Davis separations, but judging from the way the Robinson resolu- tion for double primary was dis ca,ded and eliminated from the plat form, it would have beeen Dattar for the Davis opponents to have left it alone.
 Many of the anti-Davis men who favor the nomination of Joe T. Rot inson, Mr Brundidge or Governor Donaghey, should the latter ente: the race, are honest in their belief that Davis will walk away with the Sen- atorship again. The Graphic has al- ways believed that Jeff Davis is a detriment to the State of Arkansas as it's representative in the Senatorial hall. It wants to see conservative, dignified man in his shoes. Eithec Joe T. Robinson, Governor Donaghey or Congressman Brundidge could fiji, the position with credit, but past ex- perience in politics in this state has taught the. wise politician that Jeff Davis is an exceedingly strong man. He has following that is hard 10 convert Congressman Robinson's friends were firm in their belief and are still confident that he can be elected Governor with ease and that he would eventually go into the Senatorial halls at Washington. His closest friends believe that he has made serious mistake. They do not believe that he can defeat Sena- tor Davis nor can Mir. Brundidge put Jeff out of business. With the pres ent scramble for the office it looks as if Governor Donaghey is about the only man who can turn the trick, but all others must stand aside and let the governor handle Senator Davis in his characteristic manner. Gov ernor Donaghey's influence with the business people would get him many a vote and his popularity in the ru- ral districts is conceded by even Jeff Davis.

DESTRUCTIVE TORNADO
 VISITS PINE BLUFF
(Continued From Page One.)

resumed this morning the Mergan- thaler machine at the Graphic office was set in motion and although a few hours late the paper comes to it's readers with all details obtainable up to press hour.
 Efforts were made to get some re- ports from the country surrounding Pine Bluff, but the Postal reports all wires down in every direction and the Western Union had only one wire working at S:30 a. m. and that to Dallas, Texas. This wire was work ing so badly that it was hard mat ter to get any definite information of storm damage whatever.
 Held to a Tree,
 J. R. Parsons, who conducts a school just north of the city was re- turning home yesterday afternoon and while waiting for the train on the Iron Mountain railroad at Dex- ter, seven miles north of the city, says he was compelled to hold to a tree to keep from being blown away He had a book in his hand and this was snatched from him by the wind and carried sailing through the air. This and the Altheimer re- port is only evidence that other parts of the country were visited by the tornado.
 T. A. Hill, of the Hills Advertising Service, reports p of his billboards down out of total of 60. He esti- mates his damage at s1,000.
 R. s. Harris, general manager of ] the Citizens Light & Transit Company reports that his company was very fortunate in the storm The greatest damage to the wires of the company was on East and West Barraque street, where number were down, On East Second avenue the greatest damage was done to the trolley wires four poles of the telephone company falling against them During the night force of men was kept work ing and this morning the cars went out on schedule time No estimate was made of the damage to the com pany, but MT. Harris states that he has been in three bad storms and considers the companys damage very small.
 Damage Across River.
 travelling man, who passed through the country across the river north of the city, gives an account o1 the fierce wind in that section He was coming to this city from a rril into the country, in a buggy. He says that while near the edge of the woods across the river he was caught in the thickest of the storm He jumped from the buggy and the top being up, the wind sent it whirl- ing into the air. He reports the hail as being very large and thick. He states that his buggy was dented with small marks made by the hail. He failed to see any of the crops after l the storm, but states that he does not see how they could have escaped de- struction. The storm was very bad at the Bell place.

} N MACHINERY.
Built So That 1t May Be Transported
by BurroS.

The transportation facilities in many
parts of Mexico are still very costly and
the methods in many places are very
crude. In some parts the transporta-
ton of merchandise and machinery is
carried On by the use of OK carts, al
though in western Mexico, where the
mining industry is extensive, the Mexi-
can burro is a most important factor
and is preferred because of it's being a
swifter carrier and safer in the danger
Gus mountain passes.
Thus the traffic between the railroad
stations and the interior points is large
ly handled by burro Transportation.
These little animals are worth from
$3.50 to $50 each, United States cur
rency. They average about five hun
dred pounds in weight and will carry
weights up to 300 pounds, travelling
from twenty to forty miles a day, ac-
cording to the condition of the country.
The class of machinery used in these
mining countries is often specially built
to suit the mode of transportation, and
in order to transport by single burros
must be designed and built to allow for

moderate weight for these animals to

ELECTRICITY IN BIBLE TIMES.


SpeculatiOns Which Explain Mira
cIes by Supporting Its Use.
An electrical engineer of Munich
named Stadenmann makes an ingen-
ious argument to prove that the Jews
in the time of Moses had an advanced
knowledge of electricity, using pas
sages from the Bible to enforce his
claim, says the Boston Globe.
His theory of the famed serpent Of
bronze is that it vas a lightning con-
ductor and he also says that the tenn
pie at Jerusalem was protected by met
al Joints connected with the ground.
The most ingenious speculation is in
regard to the Ark of the Covenant,
which was made of walls of wood COW
cred on both sides with metal. If this
were connected with the metal teeth
on the temple roof it would form a
sort Of Leyden jar charged with the
electricity of the atmosphere and
would give a shock to anyone touch
ing it.
Mr.. Stadenmann presumes that
Moses gained his knowledge of cleo
tricity from the Egyptians. This an
cient race certainly had a knowledge
of many branches OF science that it
took the rest of the world thousands of
years to learn. But the only proof
that they were electrical engineers is
one recently advanced by an archaolo-
igst-that they must have had electric
lights because their underground tenn
pies show no traces of smoke.

Prisoner in Italy Duped Into Revelation
of Assassination Plot.

Cablegrams from Rome Yesterday in
dictate that the Italian government is hot
OH the trail OF the accomplices of Gaze
tanO Bresci i'll the assassination of King
Humbert III 1900, and that the United
States authorities will be asked to aid in
the eXtraditlon of the suspects.
1t is declared that an Anarchist
named Sizzi, who is serving a term in the
Parma prison, has revealed to the police
the names of a number of Anarchists of
Paterson, n. j., who are charged with
having been concerned in the killing Of
the Italian monarch. A decOy prisoner.
it is. said, was placed in the same cell
with Sizzi, and the former, by pretending
to be an Anarchist and advocating an
other plot against the rules of that coun-
try, gained the confidence of Sizzi and
got the desired information. Sizzi is said
to have given to the decoy Il complete
history of the plot that led to the assas-
sination by Bresci.
The police in this city have known.
ever since the murder of the King of
Italy. that Bresci was a member of the
society called the Group for Exist
ence." which had headquarters in Pater-
son. The late Lieut.. Joseph Petrosini,
chief of the Italian detective squad, was
sent to Paterson. at the request of the
Italian government, to look into the con-

which he said that the murder of King
Humbert had been carefully plotted, and
that President Mckinney was also
marked for death by the international
circle of Anarchists in Hoboken and
Paterson: Within a year after Petrosini
made this report, which was regarded
lightly by President Mckinley, the Pres
ident was shot down by Czolgosz in
Buffalo.
In his report Petroisino told of the
pastime of members of the association
in Paterson. They had a shooting gall
lery. in which the targets were images
of the rulers of the various nations Of
Europe. Not all of the members of the
society were Italians; there were sew
eral Spaniards and Frenchmen anon
them.
Some of the accomplices of Bresci
were captured in Europe. QuintavalIi
and Louis Grannoti were both convicted.
Grannoti escaped capture and is believed
to be now in this country. Quintavalli
was sent to the prison on the Island OF
Elba.
Sizzi, the man who is supposed to
nave told the inner details of the plot, is
believed to be the man of the same name
who was prominent in Anarchist circles
in Hoboken and Paterson before and
after the murder of King Humbert. He
was not implicated directly in the inves-
tigation after the assassination. He dis
appeared about two years ago.
If he has really confessed the COM
plete working of the Anarchist ~organiza-
ton of 1900, the results will be much
greater than the fixing of complete re-
sponsibility for Humbert's death. 1t will
reveal the secret means by which Ital-
ian criminals escape from their own
country to America while supposedly
under strict surveillance and how they
are able to get back to Italy whenever
the American police are hot ON their
trail.-New York American.

Wear Cotton or Linen.

Should wool, cotton or linen be worn
next to the skin? Wool has it's de-
voices, who would look on discarding
their merino or flannel vest or drawers
as a risk of life. Medical opinion has
radically changed in recent years, Les
lies Weekly says, and now many, II
not most, doctors favor cotton or linen
next the skin. Wool absorbs perspira-
tino and retains it; it absorbs it with
difficulty at first, but s~urrenders it to
the surrounding air with even greater
difficulty. Cotton, on the other hand,
asks only an opportunity to dry, which
it does Is rapidly as possible. The best
plan in cold weather is to wear cotton
or linen next the skin, with wool outer
clothing. The wool excludes moisture
and cold. while the cotton absorbs the
perspiration quickly and dries even
more quickly. This it does without

She read it with s~cornful eyes.

WY WOMEN REVOLT.
Sarah Grand Says "Weaker Sex Has
Begun to Think"

At present thoughtful women are 60
ing through Il period of profound as
heartenment; but diShearternent in their
case IS no check upon mental activity. \
normal w0nan's taith in Cod Is more
largely based on respect for man than
she suspects; when she loses respect for
man her faith in God may not be lost,
but it changes in character. Gods de
crccs as they bave been traEsInltte! To
her by man then become open to Ques-
ton, and she begins to substitute her own
interpretations. Except IN degenerate
people there can be no such thing rs sex
a~ntagonism.' Men have always frankly
despised women without in the least dis
liking them. One woman here and there
a man may respect, but toward women
in general his attitude will remain for
the most part kindly c0ntenptuous.
Nowadays the attitude of woman toward
mel is very much the same, but III their
contempt there is more bitterness and
less tolerance, and the effect upon them
selves of the loss of respect for mel is
altogether different. 1T has been the hab-
it Of their minds to look up to men and
to rely upon them, and when they can
do neither they suffer IL disastrous
change of nature. Mems ideals are un-
affected by the profound conviction that
woman is the inferior animal, but when
women see only the inferior animal in
man, 1t acLS upon cnem as the loss Oh
faith acts upon certain temperaments. 1t
destroys their sense of duty, cuts them
adrift from old ideals without setting IN
new ones, deprives them of all feeling of
security, and leaves a yearning ache
craving for some sort Of satisfaction.
and, finding none in the pursuits once

drives them to reckless e~XtravaganceS of
Thought and conduct.
From of old there nave been opinions
of men afioat among women the reverse
of fattering, but not of men in general,
only Of odd specimens, and never eX-
pressed above a whisper. The woman of
today judges men in the mass, and does
not whisper. She jeers at them aloud, or
laughs. or mourns for the pity Of it, ac-
cording to her character and point of
view. Taking the attainment of happi-
ness as the one thing worth living for
she SCOTS at men for their failure TO
make the world a pleasant place to live
in. for their Chinese conservation. their
lack of enterprise in social reform, their
hypocrisy. their stick-in-the-mud unpro-
g~ressive tendencies generally. Sarah
