"People have questioned Jeffries'
sincerity In retiring from the ring
originally. I am in a position to
know that when he passed up the title
six years ago it was with no thought
of ever again fighting, but now that
he is back into the game, his whole
heart is sot on winning that title
back. Jeffries never made big money
out of the ring or the stage until last
year, and now because he Is dealing
with business men, and making tho
most of his opportunities, a whole
string of men with grouches against
him have organized tho knockers'
club."

DESPERATE BATTLE NOW ON.
(CeaUa fraa
1.)
Reports from Managua today suy
that the pcoplo of tho capital are as
equally divided between Madris and
Estrada as they wore between Ze
laya and Estrada. The provisional
president, however, has gained many
supporters from tho outlying dis
tricts during the last week.
Strife has broken out again in the
capita and daily scenes bordering
upon mob violence aro enacted in the
streets. The authorities have been
compelled to resort again to stonily
repressive measures to preserve the
peace nnd the jnils aro filled with
prisoners.
Tho people of the city have not
yet given up hope of American inter
forenco. Sympathizers with tho rev
olution beliovo thnt a victory by tho
insurgents in tho battle being fought
today may havo weight with the
American government looking toward
a recognization of tho provisional
government which has been sought
by Estrada.

conditions there is no means of re

supplies may be brought into the
city.

The waters of the rising Seine to
day is over tho arches of tho Roynl.
the Archeveche, the Alma, the Sol-
ferino and tho St. Michael bridges,
and their immediate destruction
either by tho flood or by tho author
ities is threatened immediately.
After a trip over the city today a
corps of government engineers stat
ed that if even tho waters shoual
subside immediately it would take
moro than to . years to repair the
tremendous damage done to tho sub
ways and other underground con
struction. No Fires Allowed,
Tho Gorman embassy is flooded
ond hns been practically abandoned.
The authorities havo issuad order
against tho building of fires in the
threatened districts for fear that
collapsing of wnllB and foundations
will upset lamps or stoves, precipi
tating a general conflagration.
Fighting Festllence.
Under tho direction of the cham
ber of deputies, tho health depart
ment today called upon n specinl
commission of sanitary oxperts to

tho Rogue River Land Company sold tho Trouaon &
Guthrie orchard at Eagle Point to .the prize winning
wnero, four years ago, tho salesman, W. M. Holmes,
assured the purchasers those Spitzenbergtrecs would
produce tho world's beat apples, and subsequent events
prove tho soundness of his judgment. By tho way:
