Right now Jim Jeffries is ons of tho strangest studies In physical contrasts that oM camp fol lowers ever 'have seen and so marked Is the 'contrast he displays while at work and after it Is over that It has caused speculation bordering on anxiety. , Ths almost daily reports sent out of here that Jim is showing himself to be a veritable glutton for work-havs hot been exaggerated. In fact, some critics hivn,fuln far short' of the mark In attempting V to' describe , ti vigorous manner In which he goes through his stunts- ;':. : v-- . Walks ' rartnsrs Xega Off. ; -'v'l Out oh ths road ho simply walks 'the legs off Farmer Burns and Bob Arm strong and when hs. goes In for a sprint he leaves his companions so far, back that ho is in- the gymnasium ready for the' rundown long before theyget in. The ginger' he displays Is remarkable and Sam Berger and Burns have fre quently warned him against setting; too fast a pace in 'all of his work at such an early data. . But after breakfast the reaction sets In. Jeffries moves about for all the world like a man' afflicted with a se vere attack of ''iogglness."- He walks unsteadily and with an apparent effort, his shoulders are pulled nigh and his arms - swing -with a Jerky movement suggesting 'for all the world a sort of a tug or pull to propel-him over the ground. , .
