JEFFRIES RESUMES
WORK WITH THE GLOVES

Ben LOmOnd, Cal, VI May 2U.-Jef-
fries staged two good sketches for the
benefit of his camp followers today.
in the morning he did some exhibit
ton juggling with his sparring part
ners, tossing them about like the hero
worsted the villain in the tank drama.
Bob Armstrong was the first to so
on with the white champion, and in
the first two rounds escaped without
damage, for the reason that the
morning air was chilly, and Jeffries
was slow to warm up. In the third,
however, Bob carelesslN stepped in
front of a heavy one. one left hook
caught him on the forehead and he
would have gone to the floor had he
not bumped the wall first,
When ~Choynski's turn came JEFF
fries was becoming interested in his
work and poor old Joe was tossed
about recklessly for three rounds. He
emerged from the sCuffle with a
bruised ear and a blackened eye.
Brother Jack J~effries made his box
ing debut in the final two rounds.
Jeffries did not think his brother was
in good condition and handled him
gently.
Jeffries warned his sparring part
ners today that there would be plenty
of work for them in the future ana
that they could expect no rest until
after Jim Corbetts arrival.
Manager sam Berger will return
to Ben Lomond tomorrow morning,
with Tex Richard and Dick Adams.
one hundred and fifty members of
the Olympic club are expected later
in the day.
The entire Jeffries party will 90 to
Cruz tomorrow evening to see

lie exhibitions.

Cherished Articles Thrown Away.

The members of the company told that the
100 pounds Of luggage and personal belongings al
lowed each person the voyage would be
duced to II pounds for each cart. and this caused
many hearacles- for many the cherished articles
brought from the old country disposed of at
great sacrifice and often valuable pieces of cloth

company started from Florence, Ncb., about the
10th 18th day of July 1885, about the time tho
Martin company arrived there.
After completing the manufacture of the carts and
loading them with the II pounds luggage for each
person, including bedding, utensils and supplies the
historic journey commenced. and the long train
of hand carts rolled out OF Florence Neb, 230 In
the afternoon of July &c, 1856. The companies of
Capt John Toone and Jesse c. Haven which started
week 10 days earlier, blended with the
Martin company at Florence, and continued the
journey to Salt Lake company,
1t with happy hearts that the members of that
ll-starred company started their long journey
that bright afternoon. with premonton of the
suffcrings and trials. the struggles against wild
animals. still wilder savages and the rigors of an
unusually severe western winter which claimed one
third OF their number in death comin, to them in
warning note. Little did they reck that they
should face starvation, that their feet and hands
should be- frozen that their limbs should become
weary and that their number should lag
behind the caravan and pray that they might be re-
leased from further sufferings by death Their hearts
light and they lifted up their voices in graft
tude and song that they were at last on their wav
toward the gathering place of Gods people, and they
cared not what before them, so that the end

the failure the wearing of their shoes and
from being lightly clad, the result.
But little attention paid these details

the company chcered by the strains of the hand
song, which was, according to S. S. Jones of
Provo, composed route by of their number
William Hobbs, whose memory will be honored by
every member of that company as long life lasts
for giving them the words of the song which kept
heart among them when almost all else failed. And
the long line of carts stretched its way across
plain up hill and down dale, along the length of the
procession could be heard the enliveninE swing OF
that cherished chorus:
