man coming to him. Then he blocks
and counters. He cannot break
ground and put his opponent at a dis
advantage because his movements are
slow. Do you think for moment that
he will be able to block that tripham-

tainly not. Johnson's style Is made to
order for the big fellow. Jeff will
bore in and johnson will peck away
with his jabs. but he will not pick

arms
This battle will be the case of the
man with the stronger punch. And
take it from me. there is no man in
this world able to face Jeffries in
the ring and swap punches without
getting a ticket to dreamland in re-
turn. Johnson has a good right hand,
but his white rival possesses pair of
hands. and he has the kick Of a mule
in both.
jeff Already. Mt Weight.
Now a few words to the skeptics
who are worrying over Jeff getting
into condition. 1t was only few DAVIS
ago that Jeffries submitted to an ex-
haustive physical examination in Chi
cago, and was pronounced to be in
magnificent shape That should clear
up the situation. l met Jeff few DAYS
ago and want to announce that he
already tips the scale between 33O and
235 pounds, which is his regular fight
ing weight 1t looks now as though
the big fellow would have to case I'm
for a time before he starts in rigorous
training. With his health good. his
strength never better, his eye as clear
as when he was at his best, the man
to beat Jim Jeffries is still unheard
of And I say this Notwithstanding
tho fact that consider Jack Johnson

claims committee this afternoon IA
vorably reported a bill to reimburse
the Southern Pacific railway with
S773,000 expended in 1907, in re-

Conditions in San Francisco are

however, that the grafters will go SO
far that they will hang themselves

Spiritism Said to be Dem onism.
Kingstree, May 81.

A most interesting little brochure
has recently come off the press set
ting forth with Bible proofs that the
communications received by and
through Spiritist Mediums is of De-
mon origin. The writer traces his
subject through the Scriptures from
the time when certain of the holy
angels became disobedient. He
proves from the Scriptures that
these fallen spirits deal in personal
ing the. human dead, with whose
past history, spirits, though invisi-
BILE, are thoroughly acquainted. He
shows that they also frequently per-
senate the Creator and the Redeem
er, commanding their deceived ones
to pray, do penance, etc. This, how
ever, is to merely lead them on and
to bring them more thoroughly
under demonical control. Some
times by breaking down the natural
barrier, the human will, they obsess
their victim, and rule him more or
less to his ruin-frequently sending
such to the mad-house. Numerous
illustrations, Scriptural and other
wise, are given. The price of the
little book is but ten cents, it should
be in the hands of all interested in
spiritism or who have friends inter-
ested therein. Enclose five two-cent
