A Visit to Dresden.

Dresden, May 22.-We have spent n
very delightful time in Dresden, the
capital of Saxony, located on the Elbe
river, ll6 miles southeast of Berlin.
This is modern, up-to-date city of
GOO, 600 people and is a popular center
for American tourists, and just now
the town is flooded with these globe
trotters. Some are here for a few
days only, but others are here for one,
two and three years.
The streets are elegantly paved
with either block, wood, stone or &C.
ment and are clean and well kept.
However, you will often see that the
street sweepers are women - some
times real old women. The stores are
large and fine in appearance, but are
generally confined to one line of goods
one store for gloves, another for
hats, shirts and so on, and on Sunday
these stores are all closed and canvas
is placed over the show windows so
that goods are not to be seen on the
Sabbath. The railway station is a fine
large marble building, very neat and
clean, There are three beautiful
churches here-the Presbyterian, Luth-
eran and Roman Catholic.
The royal palace is a magnificent
place, 1t is the home of the king of
Saxony. The decorations, furniture
and furnishings are very costly. On
the outside wall facing the main street
are painted the pictures of all the for
mer kings.
The royal art gallery commands the
attention of the world, for it has 1900
pictures. Most of these are master

Jeffries' Camp Without Snap as Re-

body felt at all like working. We all
wanted to just loaf and think. and
that's all we did.
OF course Jeffries did punch the
bag and play two games of handball
in the morning and he interspersed a
little rope skipping into his morning
workout. But / noticed that he did
not put the vim into the game that he
generally does, and | proved an easy
victim for him because of my own
gloomy feelings. | was totally with
out ambition and felt a little bit re-
lieved when | learned that Jeffries
had cut out work for the day.
Mind you, what Jeffries did he did
well, but he just did it in the manner
of a man who wants to keep in shape,
not in the vigorous slam bang style
that has characterized his work be-
fore. You see I'm using my own feel
ings as a barometer of Jeffries and
think | have him gagged right. How
ever, way out here where we are al.
most cut off from civilization we can't
tell exactly what's going on in the
city, and understand that a lot of
things have transpired and developed
that we know nothing about.
Jeffries insists upon making him.

Personally, from what information
/ have at hand, do not think there S
Frisco now. But until Jeffries has
his mind set at rest regarding this
point | do not believe he will attempt
any boxing whatever. And that's
what is worrying me just nOw-the
boxing. as | have said all along, jeff
needs it, and needs it badly. It's all
we'll to say that he never boxed much
in training before and that he has
done more glove work for this fight
than he did for any other one he ever
had, but it is also true that he never
has stacked up against such clever
boxer, outside of myself, as this same
Mr.. Jack Johnson. My fight with Jeff
ries at Coney Island is what we had
TO go on in trying to figure the com
ing battle.
But JEFF won, didn't he?" say you
He did, but We must remember that
that was ten years ago, and ten years
makes a big difference. And we also
must remember Jeffries has not had a
glove on in seven years, whereas he
was boxing right along when he went
against me. If he did not do it while
training he was doing it in the ring
for blood. The fast work at boxing
will get Jim's eye and distance right
That's absolutely all he needs now
