That supposedly spindle-legged,
long-hOrned, invisible thing called
the error "Jinks," which some imag-
inc as being somewhat insectiferous
in general form, is again charged
up with the defeat of the Tacoma
Tigers by our Spokane Indian boys.
There is no doubt but that the Spo-
kaneiteS cleaned 'em out about
right yesterday, as far as that is
concerned, whether by the aid Of a

playing and field generalship.
All three of Spokane's runs came
in the second inning. after two We're
already down, for the error bug got
to work with poor Coleman and
Stevens, and wick" Holm, the old
reliable Indian pitcher, who comes
long way from being a batting
specialist, was suddenly seized with
an insane desire to kill the pellet.
He drove it just out of Rocken-
fields reach, and Stevens out in
right field let it go on through him,
and the first two scores were
chased over the plate. Coleman
soon later booted NetZel's grounder
and our friend wick" Holm shay
ged across with another run.
After that it was a hard, close
struggle, in which the Indians fear
ed to give the Tigers chance, and
the Bengals made every play count
to keep the visitors from scoring
more. Both Holm of the Indians
and Schmutz of the Tigers pitched

SP0R TING
BY Max Ralthasar.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 2s.-Jim
Jeffries has been put through the
most systematic and scientific
course of training that any man, in
or out of the ring has ever under
';.sken.
This is the answer to the eastern
skeptics who, according to advices
received here, are laughing at what
they term the ex-champion's silly
training methods. They evidently
base their conclusions on the fact
that his sparring partners are old
men, and to the further fact that he
takes a couple of days off each
week to go fishing. They slight
the fact that Jeffries has been pre-
pairing himself ever since March,
1909, and that for the past three
months he has been in grind of
training. There has been no half
heartednesS about his training. He
has thrown every ounce of energy
into his work and the result has
startled his most ardent admirers.
Today there is hardly an ounce of
superfluOus flesh on his gigantic
frame. The fat he carried for the
four and half years following his
battle with Jack Monroe has not
been torn off in hurry. 1t came
off gradually and easily, under eX-
pert medical advice.
Going back to the time when the
big fellow decided to re-enter the
ring because the white race de-
manded it, what did Jeff do? He
cut out cigars and wine the moment
he announced his determination to
fight Johnson. He began to take
light exercises, after having had
himself examined by physicians,
and with their advice and his own
knowledge of training, he laid out a
perfect system of work while tour
ing the country in vaudeville.
But mere exercising was not his
sole effort to get into shape His
system needed renovating and on
the advice of physicians he went to
Carlsbad and took the waters, with
as much system as the goutiest
patient.
While there much of his gross
flesh was taken off. His improved
appearance was freely commented
upon and the eastern critics were
practically unanimous in the belief
that JeffrieS was coming back An
other theatrical tour followed, but
he didn't stop training. Skipping the
rope, punching the bag, boxing and
roadwork put him in such shape that
when he arrived in San Francisco
he could have plunged into the
hardest kind of work.
On April 2 he pitched his training
camp at Rowardennan. What he
has accomplished since is truly
marvellous. The paunch is entirely
gone, his wind is as good as ever
his muscles stand out like whip
cords and work with a freedom that
effectually dispels the fear that
muscular degeneration had set in
His stamina is the marvel of eX-
perts. Can one imagine a man who
has neglected his training rowing

teresting views of the city, buildings

parties and business firms have con,
tracted for about twelve thousand OF

quite an attractive advertisement for

Austin, Texas, June 9-A Pittsburg
banker who has been travelling over
Texas, said to the Texas Commercial
Secretaries Association representa-
tive here: although your state is
probably the best advertised Of any
in the country, and while l believe in
advertising and publicity, it seems to
me thar if you could just let the peo-
pie of the north and east and other
states know of some of your yields
per acre and the income from same,
you would not need any other public
ity at all.
When raisers of all kinds of live
stock have been getting enormous
prices, and with the coming forward
OF your rapidly increasing citrus fruit
industry, alfalfas, pecans, domestic
fruits, onions and garden truck it
would seem that most every one who
heard of it would either wish to come
here or invest, as these fine lands at
such a remarkably low price will not
last forever--in fact a few years more
will see most all of the low priced
lands of your state gone.
Another feature is your open win
tiers which make farm work, business,
pleasure OF. travelling possible the
whole year and the only reason why
this state is not completely filled up
with settlers in one season must be
because they have not heard of the
actual facts as to your oil fields and |
natural gas, coal, iron and mineral
lands, or of the profit in poultry rails
ing or any one of the many lines here
which bring big returns"

Mr.. Rowland holds that while it is
the duty of any county in the state to
protect its citizens from the spread
of any dangerous disease, that in
every incorporated city of such coun-
" the city should bear the expense
of maintaining the quarantine If such

The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1910-10-05

Troublous times for capital and
labor have developed in Free-Trade
England.
Disputes in various branches of in
dustry, which seem to have passed
beyond the possibility of settlement
by arbitration, threaten to precipi-
tate, very shortly, lockout that will
affect employees of railroads, ship
yards, mines and cotton mills to the
number of 650,000.
The London Spectator says that
this unrest in the industrial world
may conceivably be due to the Soci-
alist propaganda which teaches that
the employer is the natural enemy OF
his employees, breaches always the
doctrine of discomfort, and advocates
political action by organized labor.
Whatever may be the various
causes that combine to produce the
disturbed condition, the fact that it
exists in a country in which labor
has not the benefit of a Protective
Tariff stands out conspicuously
against the contention of American
advocates of tariff reduction that
adoption of their policy would i'm
prove the condition of the wage
workers.
