JEFFRIES KNOCKED OUT CH0YNSkI IN
 FIERCE FASHION
(By Our staff Correspondent.)


 San Francisco, May 31.-It developed today that last Tuesday-a week ago today-Jim Jeffries knocked out Joe ChOynski so cold that it took some time to bring him back to where he could see the sun and hear the birds twittering in the tree-tops.
 Jeffries' handlers kept the story quiet for they did not want it bruted about that the big fellow was beating up his training partners. It was a real fight The two giants went at it nip and tuck for two rounds. Suddenly Choyn- ski swung a vicious left to Jeffries' jaw and twisted the big fellows head. In an instant things happened. Jeff waded in. Choynslxi's ears were mashed into caulifower-shape his nose crushed, a tooth knocked out and his lips split. Another swing and Choyn- ski went to dreamland.
 Today Jeffries and Choynski laughed when they heard that the story was out and declared they have been chuckling in their sleeves whever peo- pie tell Jeff he ought to do more road work and rough boxing.
 Jim Corbett's appearance in the Jeff ries camp has been hailed with ac- claim. Jeff went fishing yesterday but showed up Splendidly. He will live at Santa Cruz and will go over to Rowardennan every day. He has promised to. give Jeffries some hard knocks and he seems to be in condi- ton to do it.
 Johnson, too, has been doing harder training. Since he heard of Jeffries' excellent showing last Friday he has been wading into his training part ners. Cutler and Cotton look like they had been through threshing ma chimes.

deal from the referee. Every one of them declares that Mcfarland was clearly entitled to a decision. The Daily Mail declares that Welsh spent most of his time covering up while McFarland made a chopping block of him. The Leader declares Welsh was the most surprised man in the club when given a draw. Sporting Life, the leading sporting paper in England, adds that Mcfarland had a clear lead for 15 rounds. Those who saw the fight say Mcfarland landed practically at will and had Welsh on the run all the time.
 Mcfarland is bitterly disappointed at the result as he had to chase Welsh all over England and give him all kinds of odds to get him into the ring. The men fought for a purse of $7,5OO, a side bet of $1,000 each. and the worlds championship gold belt Through the referees decision welsh retains the title and belt.

Mcfarland whipped the lit tie English champion from one end of the ring to the other.

A House In the Air.

Of the air. The car attached consisted
Of q small two story house, fitted with
every modern comfort. lavatories. din
ing room. bedroom. kitchen. parlor. etc.
Thirteen passengers made the first as
cent. but the journey was OF only four
hours duration. The last ascent was
for seventeen hours and was abruptly
terminated by high wind, which,
when the balloon descended. dragged
the little house humping over the
ground. The remains Of this giant of
