FRIENDS CLAIM JfFFRIfS
IS ACTING VERY QUfERLY

San Francisco, July 23.-Some cur
ious information about Jenries comes
from Burbank, near which town the de-
feated pugllst lives on his alfalfa
ranch. one letter says:
although | have been with JEFF
fries every day since he returned, l
can't figure out just what's the mat
ter with him, but the fact remains
that he has aged ten years since you
and l saw him last at Rowardennan,
and he surely is a pitiful sight now"
"He is stoop- shouldered and has
minds me of a person whose mind is
not altogether sound. He droops his
head and rambles in his talk like a
10-year- child"
Another man i'm Burbank who went
to school with JEFF tells of Jm's loss
OF memory. He writes:
Hanged if l don't think he is dop-
ed yet. He wanted to introduce me
to fellow and didn't know my name,
although you know 1 went to school
with him and have been with him
right along. Isn't that strange? He
looks all right. | couldn't see a mark
on him, but say, his queer actions are
certainly funny to me. Just think
Of 1.-THE couldn't remember my name"
Others who have seen JEFF lately
say he goes around bumped ovc~ like
an old man and pays no attention to
what is said in his presence.

Washinston's Catcher Will Work Bet

Catcher Beckendorf is the means of
giving Catcher street a much needed
rest behind the bat with the Wash

ter to allow his hands to heal from the
wets received through holding the
cannon ball delivery of Walter john
son. 1t is said that Streets hands are
in a pitiable conditionthrough back
stopping the powerful twirler and that
only his sheer gameness keeps him up
behind that terrific scorching. 1t would
be a wise thing for the receiver for
Johnson TO emulate the example set
oy Catcher Lew McAllister when he
was backstop for the Tigers some
years ago. 1t was during McAllis-

YANKEE PLANNING
TO SWIM CHANNEL
CHARLES DuRBRoW, PHILADEL-

CHANCE TO DUPLICATE

Philadelphia, July 20. - Charles

mer since Capt. Webb accomplished
the great feat. Durbrow has worked
hard and assiduously at the sport
he chose for his own several years
ago, and if his fame has not extended
beyond his little center of friends
IL must be attributed To unusual mod

that i'm lettering George Kistler's
swim of 30 miles, made i'm 1901. Dur
brow did not also improve on the
latter's time of 11h. 49m, but condi-
tions were against it. Both Kistler's
and his records were made in the
Delaware river, from Philadelphia to
Chester and back, and in each case

arranged to beat his predecessor in

Taking into consideration this idle
time and the further distance he
went the figures he established, 12h.
Adm. do not compare unfavorably with
those of Kistler And his title is
the more clear, for he never touched
support from start to finish, while
Kistler hung on to a rowboat for
about 10 minutes.

undertaking to swim the channel are
excellent In past attempts at chan

could not possibly stem it, thus los

Durbrow swan only the breast stroke

con, and although having mastered
il but imperfectly his speed has near

study and practice he should i'm
prove still further. but even at the
rate he went i'm his last performance
