 Still Jeff was silent. The champ wasn't in very talkative mood that day. l had hoped that after little talking with him I might influence him into agreeing to fight me. But Jeff had nothing to say. So I made a big play on Brady, realizing that, after all, he was the man who would-or wouldn't give me the chance to regain the heavy- weight championship of the world.
 I'd like to fight Jeff-any time with in a year." I said, directing my conver- sation to Brady.

humorous features of that fight which. up to this time, were known only to his intimates. After Jim Jeffries took the cham- pionship from Bob Fitzsimmons I was perfectly content to permit the continu- , ation of the stories that I was very | much out of fighting condition.

 the belief that I was "au in," but 1

 to work it successfully with Jeffries. | And I did.
 | William A. Brady, who had been my ! manager from the time before my fight | with John L.. until some months after ! I lost to Fitz, was then the manager l of Jeffries. And 1t was upon Brady that centered my endeavors to get match with Jeff, reckoning that if Brady would give his consent, Jeff would be | guided by Brady's action. I tried in va rious ways to meet Brady, planning that Brady must think it was an accidental meeting. The plan worked After Brady and had exchanged greetings. I said | to him:
 Say, Bill. why don't you get Jeff to give me a fight?" Brady looked at me in an odd way. It was but natural. Bill had been fed up with stories of my "has been" con- dition and of course. was surprised that I should want to fight such an aggres- sive. powerful and rugged fellow as Jef- i fries

 'IIl take the chance, Bill" But you wouldn't have a chance" an- swered Bill Tt wouldn't be fair to you to let you fight Jeff. You're too old.' Then I said:
 q am little old, Bill. that's right. And maybe I'm not in the same condition that used to be. But, just the same, | I'd like to get fight with Jeff, any way"
 While Brady was pondering over it, added:
 "Bir, I put Jeffries into the business, didn't I?-and you and Jeff are on the road to fortune just now. Why don, you two fellows even things up with
 me now by giving me a chance to make l a little money? I certainly could use | my end of purse" l At that juncture Jeff joined us and after we had exchanged greetings, Brady said to Jeff:
 Jim thinks you ought to give him Q | fight"
 | Jeffries looked at me for a second or | two and then hung his head and looked at the floor without uttering a word Finally, Brady said to Jeff: "The people will be expecting you to I fight pretty soon, any way Jeff, ana | you might as we'll take on Jim as any | one else. He'll be easier for you than | the rest of the boys. Jim hasn't had Q | long fight for nearly three years and 1 he's pretty old and out of shape.

WHICH WILL HE CHOSE?

Having established himself as one
of the foremost delineators of in
tense types the screen has borne and
having enacted many of the most not
able roles in the realm of the silent
drama, Henry B. Walthall will appear
at the Arcade Theatre for one day,
Wednesday, July II, in ellis Robe
of Honor" which marks his debut as
star in Paralta Plays.
In "His Robe of Honor" which
is from the pen of Ethel and James
Dorrance, Mr.. Walthall will be seen
in the role of Julian Randolph, a dis
reputable lawyer, who becomes an
upright judge of the Supreme Court
of the State of New York under the
refining influence of a young woman
of high social position, whose innate
force of character fans his spark of
manhood into fame of noble char
! acter. The struggles of the awakened
soul of the man reaches a climax
when the issue seemingly is that
duty performed will have as its re-
ward impeachment and disgrace,
while recreance will bring honor and
position. Which will he choose? The
unraveling Of the tanglement which
brings happiness to those who have
fought so hard, gives Mr.. Walthall
a most unusual opportunity to run
the entire gamut of dramatic emo
/ tons.
Miss Mary Charleson, who ap-
peared with much success as leading
woman for Mr. Walthall in many of
his former successes, has been en-
gagged as a member Of the Paralta
forces and will be seen playing OPP
posite him in this production in the
role of Roxana Frisbee, an 'adven-
