TOO MUCH RELATIVES.
Divorce Judge Ascribes Troubles OF
Crandalls to interference.


1T strikes me from the testimony l
have heard In this case that but for
the interference of relatives this cou-
pie would have gotten along together
happily" Judge Murfin remarked
Tuesday morning during the progress
of the divorce case OF Mabel G. VS..
John l.. Crandall. The parents OF
both parties seem to have been too
ready with advice and suggestions,
which had much to do, believe, with
this distressing divorce trial"
Shortly after the Judge expressed
himself in this manner Attorney John
s. Crandall, who appeared for his son,
asked his daughter-in-law what
caused a certain trouble she had re-
ferTed to.
1T was because you came to our
house and ordered my mother out
she replied.
Mrs. Crandall. slight, pretty little
woman, was subjected to a lengthy
cross-examination by her father-in-
law, but she was ready with an an
swer for every question, and gener-
ally her answers only served to
strengthen her case.
My husband whipped me many
times" she said. while we were llv-
ing on Virewood-ave., usually be-

She also charged that her husband
was mean and nagging, taking delight
in tantalizing her until she cried

Artist Rogers confesses to Police His
Story Of Robbery Was Painted.

After insisting to a policeman Mon
day night that he had been robbed Of
sos, L. d. Rogers, who says he is an
artist and that he lives on Winder-st.,
signed his name to a confession that
his story of the robbery was a myth.
Pa;rolman Paul Michalfski says he
saw Rogers knocking loudly on the
door of q Macomb-st. residence. He
asked him what the trouble was and
IL was then that Rogers told him he
had been robbed Of S95. His confess
sion was written and signed in the
presence OF Detective Brooks and Pre-

men. Jeffries was sure of himself at last, and he at once announced that he would fight the black champion.
 His belief that he has ''come back grows from his own judgment in the weeks since when early in May he has been seeking athletic re-birth in his camp at Ben LomOnd.
 There. in the picturesque uprise of the Santa Cruz mountains. and with in easy motoring distance of the surf in which he loves to plunge his great body, the big man has been watched by trainers, physicians, ringside eX perts and q corps of correspondents
 These men from their various points of view unite in saying that Jeffries is once more fit, and equal to the stress that faces him. Of Johnson's physical fitness there is and has been no question. With him it is simply, is he the man in skill, quickness and endurance to match the self-retired champion? Tomorrow will tell.

out of a canyon, he said to me: You are a pretty healthy looking specimen of the outdoors; how long do you think you could fight right now at top speed?"
 ''Oh, don't know" replied. 'Possi- ply some out of condition. Maybe not over three or four rounds
 As his trainers pulled and hauled at the clothes nearest his skin. he called to his brother Jack to bring the box ing gloves with the heavy padding on the wrist, and asked me to strip, to clear my decks; in other words, to get ''rosum' on my feet. He said he want ed me to put on, the gloves and fight him as hard as I could from the word time; that he would hold his hands behind his back, so I coul dnOt hurt myself on his elbows, and make absO- lutely no offensive movement except to rush me with his features and shoul- ders from the call of time.
 Well, now. felt pretty able propo- sition myself while I stood waiting for Billy Delaney to call time" I was six feet one and half inches, and weighed about two hundred pounds, but I will confess that the idea of hauling off and smashing into the face of a friend with his arms behind him was distasteful: so at the call of time, although I slammed in. friendship held me back, until Jeffries yelled to me to cut loose. Using all my strength and every mus cle available to land. it seemed to me was a living hurricane for a while, and I remember I wondered how Jim was going to stand it. I shuddered at the thought of the blood that would flow from his unguarded nose but always Jims big dark face was crowding me off almost into the canyon below. Soon I was jabbing with both hands, then I used one hand, resting the other, and there seemed fully a minute between my blows.
 Finally there were no blows. I was exhausted and the watch showed that I had fought just one minute and one second.
 Jeffries laughingly wiped the bruises |

JohnsOn's recorded ring career shows GA battles since 1901 Of those only two were decided against him He lost a twenty-round decision against Marvin Hart in 1905, and lost to Joe Jeanette in the same year on a foul. With the exception of Jim COrbett and Tom Sharkey, he has met all the big men whom Jeffries bested and has vanquished them all.
 Jeffries' ring career lasted eight years-from 1897 to 1905. He has the shortest fighting record of any champion-twenty battles Only one "a four round bout with Jack Mon roe-was decided against him. Jef- fries was never called upon to fight second raters. His twenty battles pirants to the title He is a fighter born great, and knows nothing of the grinding process of achieving great ness through which Johnson has toiled
 Such are the men who fight to- morrow for the worlds heavyweight championship under Marquis of Queensberry rules. When victory has gone decisely to one or the other the championship will not be in dispute again for some time to come, as there are no logical claim snts in sight. These two men are in a class by themselves, and a new fighter will have to be found to match against the winner of tomor- row's contest.

THE MODERN CAVE MAN.
How Jeffries Incidentally Opened the Eyes of one Who Didn't ReaIize"

How little we, the average men. ac- tually know about our powers of en- durance. We are sure we should be some pumpkins in a scuffle. We don't yell it to anybody for manners sake, but we feel we ought to.
 Some six or seven years ago I was at Harbin Springs. Cal. It's a won derful place in real mountains, not like the ones we see at the sportsmans show. James J. Jeffries was there, training for his fight with Ruhlin. He is naturally a great hunter and ire quently used to shoulder his rifle and tie frying pan to his belt and put paper of salt in his vest pocket and start off with a careless swing like some huge grizzly off to where the peaks were the highest. Sometimes he would not get back till the next day, and once it was the day after. But that did not disturb his trainers; they were always glad to have him stay away day or two So they could heal him up.
 One day as Jeffries was being stripped of his precipitation soaked clothes on his return from a chamber

ECONOMY OF CHEAP MEAT.

Since the high price of food scare came to us a new literature has de- veloped which might properly be called economy literature. First the govern ment sent out bulletins and then writ CTS galore took up the theme. Some of these writers fail to see but one side of the problem. For instance, in one of these leaflets advising the use of cheap cuts of meat. we are told to boil it six hours. If one can go into the forests and gather the faggots gratis. six hours fuel is not much of a consideration. But think of six hours of gasoline .qrl six hours of boil ing which is necessary, in most tene- ments and flats, These are few phases of the problem which some of the advisers do. not seem to take into account. With chuck steak at fifteen cents a pound many a woman in mod erately good circumstances can not see economy in six hours use of gas.
 A woman once gave an address to poor girls, not one of whom earned over three dollars a week, and from that amount had to pay car fares. The speaker told them not to buy cheap shoes but to put at least five dollars into good pair which would last longer and protect their health. One of the girl listeners said: 'Aw, she means all right, but she's got wheels in her head" Which was her way of saying that the woman had not the proper viewpoint. The economy literature should branch out little farther and deal with the root of the trouble, and then peEhaps some of them would un- derstand why many poor woman
Arizona republican., 1910-07-04

buys bologna sausage, which does not have to be cooked, canned vegetables, which she serves without even warm ing. and why a fifteen-cent piece of chuck meat, which must be boiled six hours. is an economy she cannot prac- tice. A poor woman once received a gift of Thanksgiving turkey. and all the ct ceteras, but she had no fuel to cook the delicious fowl or transform the canned pumpkin into a festive pie. So she sold the turkey dinner to a neighbor who was a little better off and bought ready-to-eat sausage pigs feet and other food which did not need so much if any cooking. The economy advice is good for those who can take advantage of it and hundreds need it. But don't stop there. Go on to the causes of the conditions.

CARING FOR THE TEAPOT.

1T the teapot smells musty, it has not been properly washed, or else it has not been properly dried. It should be put away with the lid open. not closed, to permit the air to reach the inside It is a good plan to fill the teapot once a week with hot water add a lump of baking soda, close the lid and let it stand awhile to steam thoroughly inside. Rinse with clear water and let it dry.
