At the mission the dinner will begin at

Services will be held at 3 am. when
tickets for this gigantic meal are to be
given out and religious exercises OF some

Then there are hundreds of loaves of
bread and enough butter to model the

is a class Of drunkards now being treated
in large upper room by the physician
connected with the charity. He has had
them under supervision for several days,
and the period of their isolation from

JEFF AND ROCKER TO
BATTLE ON THE MAT
Local Sports Can't "Dope Out" Result
of Match Between the Alaskan
and the Expressman.

Tonight at the Third avenue theater
Jeffries and Rocker will meet on the
mat in a finish contest-the best two
out of three falls.
The winner of this match will be
challenged by AL Christensen who is
still in town trying to retrieve his
fortunes and regain public confidence.
If Jeffries is the winner it is probable
that the challenge Will be accepted as
Jeffries seems to want another try at
the man under more fOrtuitous cOndi-
tons than those under which he
wrestled his last match with Christ
ensen.
If Rocker wins tonight there will
be no match signed up with Christ
ensen. Delzell, his manager, says
that Rocker will not wrestle Christ
ensen under any circumstances. He
was quite emphatic in his statement.
There is still Balsz to be heard from
so that as long as the public seems to
enjoy the matches there is no doubt
but that there will be men enough to
step on the mat and issue challenges
To the winner.
The sports are very quiet in regard
to their predictions on tOnight's battle
and there is little or no money in
sight. Rocker is a big man and it is
generally supposed that he has actual
ly been training for no one has seen
him on the streets.
Jeffries is also doing some work.
He took on a cowboy, Charles Ray,
for a little matwork last night. Ray
sad he got Jeff down once but he

posed of in less than seventeen days,
so something had to be sighted. The
trip was first direct to Chicago via the
Golden state limited, a two days stop,
and thence to Detroit for five hours
and then by boat to Buffalo. They
took a day off from Buffalo to see
the Niagara Falls and then took a
night boat to Toronto, arriving on the
evening Of the day of King Edwards
funeral, which enabled them to witness
memorial services in his honor. Re
tuning to Buffalo, they went to AL
0any ny the New York Central and
then by boat down the Hudson in day
light to New Amsterdam. After fin
ishing Gotham they put to sea for a
five DAYS jaunt of 1859 miles to New
Orleans, and then home again via the
Southern Pacific.
Mr.. Kirk yesterday said he couldn't
say enough about the trip and it was
the best and cheapest travelling he ever
got up against The round trip ticket
cost $103, except the 50 side trip to
Toronto, and the service everywhere
was the best in America On great
many excursion tickets the traveller is
sidetracked to ordinary trains over the
eastern roads, but the coupons on this
ticket called for the best there was
anywhere. And as a large part of the
journey was by boat it cost nothing to
eat. for on the water the meals are
thrown in and they are fine meals at
that. He said he never saw more pa
latial quarters or better service than
on the boats from New York to New
n al -, ~ IL
had to do was just to live and be
happy. Altogether it was very nearly
as cheap as staying at home. And
speaking of train service, Mr.. Kirk
said there isn't a train in the east to
equal the Golden State limited, and
none better than the Sunset limited.
Equipped with a big library, barber
shop and a victrola in the observation
/ car furnishing four daily concerts, he
said it was just like living in style at
| home. Il
In New York he said they had a
glorious time, SO fine a time in fact,
| it was hard to leave there and so any
/ where else. He got in touch with
| Hugh Creighton and Lee Lands in the
metropolis and gives them fine rec
! concentration as entertainers. He say
! he advises all travellers to meet these
! gentlemen if they can while they are
in New York The only trouble with
Arizona republican. [volume] (Phoenix, Ariz.) 1890-1930, 1910-06-21

Mr.. Lands is that he don't stay in
New York enough of the time to meet
everybody. Mr.. Creighton secured
rooms for the party at a hotel much
less famous than the Waldorf Astoria,
but so far as they could judge it was
just as good and the rates were sur
prisingly reasonable. The service was
so fine that though they had no notion
of more than eating breakfast there
meal time usually found them travel
ing home to eat. They took in the big
restaurants after the nightly visits to
the theaters, but for real living the
hotel was good enough for any human
being and was situated right in the
heart Of the city at that.
The tourists did not confine their
sight seeing to the theaters by any
means They came as near seeing
everything as one could in seventeen
days. including nights and Sundays.
Rockaway, the Brooklyn race track
and Coney Island of course. 1t was in
Dreamland at Coney Island that Mrs.
Kirk, as her husband expressed it, got
stuck in barrel" The entrance to
Dreamland, and the only one for Wis
itors, is a long tube like a barrel with
straight sides would be, only much
larger. This tube moves round con-
stantly like a treadmill and half the
fun the visitors have at Dreamland is
getting into it. Mr.. Kirk and Miss
Grant aver that they passed through
it very successfully, but Mrs. Kirk and
Mr.. Lands failed to catch the motion
and Travelled about four miles like
squirrels in a whirling cage, trying to
get only a few yards 1t was some
thing of a task for one to stay where
he was at to say nothing of getting
somewhere else.
The trip to New Orleans was de-
light. out on the water for five days
was a novelty to land lubbers and il
seemed like they We're going round the
world. Pulling into New Orleans, Mr..
Kirk began to feel at home again. for
it was once his home city. He imme-
diately grew chesty and showed the
ladies all the sights, took them to all
the best places in town to eat, etc.
Then came the trip home, which was
decided pleasant, although the
weather was farm in the southland.
