(By Tad.) New York, Sept. 33. Jeffries isreally in earnest about returning to the ring. For the past six months we have heard stories about this and about that and why not, and if so, until the matter stood with Jeff on , the wrong end looking as though he ' was bluffing. A prominent sporting man who has Just returned from Germany, met Jeff there, , and. says that the real reason the big fellow went to Europe was, to have - an operation performed on his
nose. ' The breezer has been troubling him since he started working, almost a year ago, and he decided to blow across the pond and have a piece
of bone removed so that his breather!
would work without a hitch. He had . us all understand that his teal reason was for the baths, but they were merely played because he was so close to them. Jeff and Nat Goodwin worked Carlsbad " together, drinking the waters,
walking up the hills and doing the hor-J
Ixontal bar act Jeff Is expected back here next month, and the posting of forfeits and other final arrangements will probably be made then. The only man in the world who has a chance to beat Johnson, will then start active training for the 'battle the whole world Is aching for.

DR. J. M. WAMPLER WANTS TO RECOVER $25 FOR SERVICES RENDERED' MRS. FLEMING DURING HODGIN WltL CASE.
Barring ths Party. "Pray. Mr. Canning." said a lady to the English statesman, "why.;, have they made the space in the iron gates at Spring gardens so narrow?" . "Oh. ma'am." replied Canning, with the delightful absurdity for which he was famous, "because such very fat people used to go through.
(Palladium Special) Dalton, Ind., Sept. 23. Suit was brought in the justice of the peace court by Will Reller of Richmond, iu the interest of Dr.. John M. Wampler against Mrs. Laura Hodgin Fleming to recover $25 on account for professional services rendered during the trial of the Hodgin will case. The
case is set for hearing October 1, before Zimri Hanson, the local justice of the peace, who previous to this time, has had but two cases in his court in the last two years. . What the Charge Is. It is set forth in the complaint that Dr. Wampler was employed by Attorney John F. Robbins, who attempted to break the Hodgin will, as medical adviser and expert witness for Mrs. Fleming. The complaint says that Dr. Wampler outlined the medical feature of the case for Attorney Robbins and Mrs. Fleming, and that the case was conducted along the lines of Dr. Wampler's suggestions. For these services he was to have received $25.00 which Mrs. Fleming now refuses to ray. The Hodgin will case, of which this 6uit Is an aftermath, will be remembered as one of the most bitterly fought in the Wayne Circuit court Mrs. Fleming, the daughter, unsuccessfully attempted to set aside the will of the late Prof. Hodgin, her father, alleging that his sickness had weakened his mind, making him incapable of drawing up a rational will.

Some one is evidently trying to kid the fire department This afternoon
a telephone call was received at the No. 2 hose house in the city building to the effect that there was a fire at Tenth and North J street and to send the departments to that place at once and "to hurry up." A quick run fail

There have been numerous false alarms turned in recently and the police are Investigating the matter. In case the culprits are caught they will be dealt with severely, it is said.

Nashville, Tenn.. Sept 23. The
presence of Secretary of War Dickinson attracted immense crowds to the state fair today. General F. D. Grant reviewed the uniformed regiment of
confederate soldiers. Secretary Dick
inson delivered an address on the ne
gro cuestion. He said in part:
"Injustice and violence will breed
violence and will debase the civiliza
tion of the communities that sanction
it No civilization can expand on
board and high lines where commun
ities are terrorized by mob rule. We
do hot want a state of siege, continuous conflict and the exhibition of the
mailed hand. We want peace, the growth of the arts and sciences, and such conditions as will invite commerce and at least migration within our borders, if not immigration. To control with any degree of permanency, even for our own time, the race question, it must be on such a basis as will appeal to the enlightened Judgment sympathy and co-operation of the best people of the white race all over this country. What Cost Will Be. "We can for a lime maintain supremacy by violence and disorder, without such co-operation, but it will be at frightful cost. We ought to maintain it with the healthful advancing, and not retarded civilization, under peaceful conditions and the reign of the law. This should be done with the highest degree of protection and justice to the negro compatible with white . political control. "The minds of outsiders, of our own race, are open to the appeal that it should govern so long as that government is one of just protection under the law, but a sense of justice is repellant when an aspect is applied to the assertion of governmental control with a submission to mob rule. When the white people of this country recognise generally, as they inevitably will, that it is a cuestion of race and not individuals, a Question of anglo-Sax-
ton government, but with Anglo-Sax-ton . government administered fairly and justly under the law, there will follow a settlement of the cuestion as
peaceable and permanent as can be hoped for."
