JEFFRIES UNDERGOES OPERATION

10 GET FIT New Tork, Oct. 27. "This is the first good breath of air I have had in six years,.' Big Jim Jeffries walked out of the Flat Iron building into Eroadway yesterday afternoon, threw out his chest and drank in all the autumn ozone his mighty lungs could hold. Jeffries had Just come from the doc tor, who had burned out the right nos tril of his nose. "Bob Fltzslmmons pounded me so hard on the bridge of my nose in our first fight at Coney Is land," went on Jim, "that I have never been able to breathe properly since. 'I never knew what the matter was until today. I thought all along that the bridge of the nose had been fractured and the bone had grown off in a tangent in some way. The doctor took a peek today and much to my surprise, told me that it was a fleshy growth in both of my nostrils that was keeping the good air out of my lungs." And then Sam Berger dipped in an oar. The doctor insisted on JefTs tak ing opiates, but the big fellow grunted and said he thought perhaps he might be able to stand a little thing like scratching his nose. The doctor told him that It wasn't merely a matter of CHANGE PUNS DEALS TO BOLSTER UP CUBS Manager Goes West to Keep in Shape by Working in Orange Grove. Manager Frank Chance of the Cubs on the eve of his departure for the Pacific coast said that he had certain trades in mind for bolstering up the ex-champs next year. He announced, however, that he was not at liberty to divulge them as yet. "It's too early to say anything definite about changes now," he said. "We have only begun to forget about the 1809 race. We will have a good, strong team next year, though of that you may be assured." Husk" and Pitcher Orvle Overall, accompanied by their wives, leave tonight over the Northwestern for California. Chance will stop off at Los Angeles, while the Overalls will go to Vlsalla, where they will spend the winter. Chance has an orange grove near Los Angeles, where ht will pass most of his time. "I expect to keep in half way condition all winter,' said the boss Cub. "I own twenty-one acres near Arcadia, wl.ere Lucky Baldwin had his famous ranch. As I have on an overage of 100 trees to the acre I will have plenty of work to do. It's the farmer's life for me this winter, and I don't think that the open air labor will do me any harm." On gazing over the official reserve list of the national association. President Murphy of the Cubs noticed that six of his recruits were placed on it. The players in question are Outfielder Roy Miller, San Francisco; Pitcher Joe Cook, Adrian, Mich.; Inflelder J. C. Smith, Anderson, S. C; Catcher Hart, Monmouth; Pitcher Weaver, Nashville, and Pitcher Wolf, Macomb. "It is probably a mistake on the part of the association," said Murphy last night. "There is no apparent reason why the names are on the list for they belong to the Chicago Cubs by draft." Three of the Cub stars will remain in Chicago all winter. Brown .Tinker and Reulbach having already established their homes here. DISCUSSES CHALLENGE Lipton Talks of Plans for America's Cup Race. New York, Oct. 27.

FOR HIS FIGHT cutting, but that the obstruction would have to be removed by a burning process. The medico explained to Jeff that he would have to insert a wire attached to a battery and singe the growth away with electricity. "'You can't stand the pain, Mr. Jeffries, and you beter take a sleep po tion,' said the doctor. Jeff scowled at him, rubbed his cauliflower ear and offered: 'Never mind the pain but Just burn it out Doc, won't squeal a bit.' "It took the doctor and me a half hour of earnest conversation to get Jeff to rub a little cocaine on the la side of his nose. That's as close to a knockout as he ever came, and he told the doctor so. He sat back in the chair while that medical chap fairly fried the inside of his nose and Jeff didn't as much as clasp his hands. I never saw such grit It looked like the Last Days of Pompeii, for his old nose was smok ing like those good old fire hills. 'He went right on with his gymna sium work In the afternoon and suf fered no inconvenienct by the burning, which is a great improvement over the cuttinsr. He will have the left side burned out today." YOST PLANS TO RETIRE Intimates He Will Quit If Michigan Team Fails, Ann Arbor. Mich.. Oct 27. Coach Fielding H.
