WIFE MAKES POULTlGES FOR DE- FEATED CHAMPION, WHO IS
 SORE IN BODY AND SPIRIT.
GOING BACK TO THE FARM
$12O,o0o Slowed Away as Victor's Reward for an Hours Work
 in the Ring.

Reno, New, July 6.-Reno is suffer- ing from a most acute attack of the morning after" It is doubtful if the defeat of James J. Jeffries by John Arthur Johnson caused any more gen uine and sincere roget in Los Angeles, the home of the former champion, than 1t did here, at the scene ot the fight, where the big Californian LCt only had made scores of friends, but had won the confidence of the entire betting community
 Moana Springs IS under a pail. Members of Jeffries camp are still daZed and bewildered. Roger Cornell and Farmer Burns, Jeffries two loyal trainers, were in actual tears when scene at the camp preparing for the getaway of the party. Both men had been virtually the entire night min istering to the defeated man, being assisted in their work by Mrs lief fries.
 The banquet which Jeffries had ar ranged for party of his most inti- mate friends was called off, and in stead Jeffries partOOk of a little thin soup, about all he could force through his bruised and badly lacerated lips.
 Throughout the evening the eX- champion was practically blinded as result of a terrible blow on the right eye in the second round, the punch which really gave Johnson the vic tory. The injured optic did not puff up as is usually the case, but the lids closed as if paralyzed, and the left was affected in sympathy.
 His vision grew poorer during the evening until he was practically blind ed, but it was much improved in the morning and Jeffries is expected to be all right in a couple of days. While the fallen idol declined to add any thing to his first statement, attribut ing his defeat to the fact that his youth was gone, it was learned at the camp that he feels bitter toward those who induced him to quit his alfalfa farm and the retirement which he so thoroughly enjoyed.
 Jim Corbett is practically the only member of the Jeffries camp who takes an 'I-told-you-so" attitude. To Corbett's credit, however, it must be said several days ago he called the turn by declaring that Jeries' lack of boxing was going to show in the ring, and his prediction certainly came true.
 World Tour Plans of.
 For the time being all plans are off for the world tour which the lief fries party had banned in the event of a victory over Johnson.
 It is probable that after he gets back to his alfalfa ranch, the big bear" will not reappear in the lime light for a long time. Despite his de feat, Jeffries cleaned up a large, fat fortune from the fght-more Il all enough to maintain him in luxury for the remainder of his days
 Jack Johnson has $120,600 slowed away in his kick" as the result of an hours work in the ring. His end of the purse and the $50,000 that he received from his third interest in the moving pictures amounted to the above sum.

TAF7 PREFERS HUCHEs
 FUR CHIEF JUSTICE
GOVERNOR WILL SUCCEED FLU LER, PRESIDENTS CLOSE
 FRIENDS ASSERT.
Judge Adams Is Suggested as Possi ble Nominee for Associate Place-Place for Dem
 ocrat.

Washington, July 6.-That Charles E. Hughes, governor of New York. will be the man named by President Taft to Gll the vacancy caused by the death of Chief Justice Fuller, is the opinion expressed by men in posi- ton to know the presidents attitude.
 It has been said by men, whose relation wiLh the president make the source almost authoritative, that when Taft oered Hughes the aSsoci- ate justiceship last spring. which the governor accepted, the president told the governor that he might be able to make the nomination chief justice.
 Close friends of the president very frankly say that Taft feels there are few men in the country so well equipped for the highest place on the supreme bench as the New York gov ernor It is not thought, if the nom nation is made, that there will be any trouble in getting confirmation from the senate.
 Bowers Also Possibility.
 Solicitor General Bowers also has been spoken of as a possible success sor to Chief Justice Fuller.
 Among men who have been sug- gested for places on the supreme bench are Attorney Geenral Wicker sham, Secretary Dickinson, Judge Sanborn of St. Paul. Minn.; Judge Van Devanter of Cheyenne, Wyo.; Judge Hook of Leavenworth, Kas.; Judge Adams of St Louis, Mo; Hen ry M. Hoyt of the state department, Louis Marshall of Cincinnati, Secre- tary Knox and Chief Justice Deemer of the Iowa supreme court.
 As the death of Chief Justice Full Ter leaves only two Democrats on the bench, it was suggested President Taft might name a Democrat to sue ceed Justice Moody, should he resign This probably would enlarge the field from which he must select his tim Der.

DIR. WILEY AN EGG EXPERT.
Shows How Market Product a Be
Observation-Disclosures HIS Test Before
House SUBJ COMMITTEE That Is IN
t~est,sating High Prices OF Food.
(WaShjngton Herald.)

w ASi1JIlS LuI 11CAdAA-J .~> -.
Or. Harvey w. Wiley created a
sensation at the third hearing before
the District subcommittee which Is
investigating high FOO prices when
he proved that eggs ten months old
were being sold as the strictly
fresh" product in Washington.
The Chief Chemist not only ex-
planned. but practically demonstrated
an infallible method Of telling when.
eggs are fresh. He Endorsed his
method, and said it was possible to
prosecute and convict any dealer Of
lering cold storage Eggs as the
strictly fresh" country variety.
This is the way DR.. Wiley mad
the test. He had q big glass beaker
about three-Quarters filled With a To-
per cent solution Of table salt Into
this he dropped eggs. All the abso-
lutely fresh eggs Immediately sank
weren't quite so fresh t1oated a
quarter or third out of the water.
The eggs used were ell labeled.
Some Of them were laid Wednesday.
and DR.. Wiley knew this to be q
fact, for one OF his faithful inspect
ors hung around a chicken yard
about laying time and collected the
eggs before they got cold.
When the chief chemist dropped
lIleSc IA the OcdhcE &AlCS ~IIl1IlCOldlc1y
sank 20 the bottom. Then he toe
a box Of EGGS. bought at h Center
Market by one OF his inspectors as
strictly fresh." and put them in
water. All ave one fioated, some OF
them one-third out Of the water.
That indicated they were not
strictly FRESH" as claimed. the doctor
said, n In this connection he as
serted hat convictions for this Of
Tense had been, and could be OBJ
tanned in the District unier the food
and drug act. 1t was a plain ques-
ton, ne explained, OF selling an ar
ticle with a false label.
hen DIR. Wiley put in the beaker
a dozen or SO eggs which he knew
were ten months old. They acted
just about the same as the strictly
fresh eggs Of the Center Market.
although one or two of them may
have ridden a little higher out Of
water, indicating. the doctor ex-
rlained. that they hal progressed a
little further along the road to that
bourne from which no respectable
egg ever returns.
This indicated that The 'strictly
fresh" eggs Of the Center Market and
the ten months Old egs of the De-
pertinent Of Agriculture were in and
about the same general condition.
