Morbid Thoughts Foes. Morbid thoughts are Indefinitely greater hindrances to success than opposition from outside. No health, no beauty, no harmony, no real success can exist In the atmosphere of abnormal melancholy. Overcome the enemies of success within yourself and you will have done much toward reaching the goal.

ing schedule today, and if he can be prevailed upon to accept the advice of his handlers It will be several days before the gymnasium and the handball court see him again.

The big fighter has been annoyed dur

ing the last few days by a skin eruption on his back, a condition diagnosed

by Choynski is a serious disorder or

the blood. It is the trainers opinion

that Jeffries has been working too hard

since he went into training, and from now on the work will be regulated with greater system.

Accompanied by Sam Berger, his man

ager; "irarmer isurns ana a. ui

friends, Jeffries took an automobile trip to Santa Crus yesterday afternoon, where the former champion had a dip in the surf and enjoyed a hot salt water

tub bath. A swift trip from the beach

brought the party back to Ben Lomond

in time for the evening meal, at wtilcn Jeffries displayed an appetite set on edge by the sea breeze. New York, April 26. Wall street in large part Is making its vacation plans with Oakland.

SMITH BLANKS NAPS;

HOLDS FOE 10 3 HITS

"Piano Mover" Gets Revenge at Cleveland, Sox Winning, 2-to-0. Cleveland, 0 April 26. Evidently It was a good rest that the White Sox needed, for after a lay-off of three days they went after the Naps yesterday and beat them, 2 to 0, in a game that could not be improved on much. Frank Smith pitched, and he let the Cleveland swatters down with three lone blngles, while the Sox collected nine safe drives off Heine Berger. Smith is now even with the Naps for the defeat they handed him in Chicago last week. Duffy's youngsters showed up well after the rest they enjoyed since last Thursday. Gahdil looked the best of any of them with the stick, copping two doubles and a single out of four times to the plate. John Collins was sent to the outfield in place of Barrows, and John made good enough In his first

eniie io araw a base on balls from Berger when he came up in the eighth. Collins got only one hit out of three,

times at bat. but he was robbed of .one hit by Joe Birmingham, and the other time he hit the ball hard enough, but

itt went too high for safety. Purtell

Chairman Root of the contest board of the Chicago Motor club, discovered yesterday that even the gravel highways running to Lake Geneva, which was to have been the turning point of the run, were in bad shape and that while it might be possible for the cars to negotiate the double century it would not have bee a fair test of the fuel economy of the contesting cars.
