NEW YORK , Nov. 2. Jim Jeffries anil
Tom Shatkcy will fight tomorrow night In
the arena of the Coney Island Sporting club
for the heavyweight pugilistic championship
of the world. Although Jeffries , as the
champion and the bigger man , Is the favorite
of the Bportlng men , many strange stories
Irnvo been told of him since ho went to
England nnd since hli return. Illlly Delaney -
laney of San Francisco , who trained Corbett
for his successful venture with Sullivan ,
eald today :
"My man Jeffries will bo heard ot to good
advantage tonight. 1 told you five months
before ho met 1'ltz that It was a sure thing
for him. Now take my advice , do not worry
nbout all these stories which your hear ot
Jim's sickness. He's all right and he'll win
sure. "
The Allenhurst training quarters were de-
eertcd late this afternoon. Jeffries , Delaney -
laney , Tommy Ryan and n party of attend-
nnt closed up the shop nnd came to Now
York. Early In the day Will Curlcy , the
Jngllsh : featherweight , left the Allenhurst
cottage , nccompanled by two of his spar
ring partners.
Eight hours later the entire fighting colony
came to thl city. Before Jeffries left Allen
hurst he had gone over several miles nt a
Jog-trot , after which ho skipped the rope
750 tlmcfl with out a misstep and his leg
movement was all that could bo desired.
Other than this work he did nothing and
ulrnply prepared himself for his move on
Bharkey , ns he facetiously expressed It.
When the camp inqvcd from Allenhurst
nil bands were in the beet of spirits nnd
none of them were more confident than Jet-
Ties. They arrived hero late this afternoon
and Immediately repaired to' the Vander-
bllt hotel , where Jeffries will rest until to
morrow evening.
ExoriiiH ii < Slinrkcy'N ( luiirlor.N.
The seaside resort at Nowdorp , S. I. ,
where Sharkey has been training for some
weeks , was also the scene of an exodus this
afternoon. Sharkey , who never seems to tire
ot work , was on edge this afternoon when
a message came from his manager , Tom
O'Rourko of Now York , to break camp and
come to the city. George Dixon , who has
a very Interesting engagement on hand to
night , has been In training steadily nnd
earnestly with Sharkey for the last flvo
weeks and both fighters took their release
from their grueling neighbors as a boon.
Sharkoy said :
"I'm In tiptop condition ; BO Is George
here. Aren't1 we , " said the Irish-American ,
addressing his little dusky partner. "You
bet yer life , " replied George. "Hoth ot
us will bo on top at the cud of the outfit.
I'm surer of your success than I am of mine
oud that means neither of ue can lose. "
Sharkey was never In better condition.
Ho has trained faithfully and , In every sense
of the word , has lived up to the Instructions
Elven him by bis manager. A comparison
between his condition and that of Jeffries
could scarcely bo drawn. Doth are fit , each
has trained assiduously. Notwithstanding
rumors to the effect that Jeffries is in an
unfit condition ho seems to bo fit to fight
lor his awd a dozen other men's lives and , as
to Sharkey , to use the vernacular , "There
Is nothing doing" if ho needs any Improve
ment to win the championship.
.A prominent man up town who Is in the
labit of holding a great many bets said
tonight :
"There seems to bo a lack of sporting
Wood , BO far ns bets go , on' tomorrow's
flght. Interest seems at fever heat and yet
snen will not wager their money. Queer
reports In the respective training quarters
of the fighters as to their inability to put
up to a good argument scorn to have had a
deterrent effect on the betting market. To
my mind both men are In the best possible
condition. The most conservative and well
Informed patrons of the ring agree with mo
that the contestants will have a hard battle
for eight rounds and. If It lasts longer. It
will be a question ot the man with the
stamina to win. "
IVwVHJS TM n I'Muht. '
Many sporting men from different parts
ot the country arrived In this city tonight.
They all came to see the big battle. Del-
egations from Chicago , St. Louis , Kansas
City , Minneapolis , Denver , Omaha , Cincin
nati , AVashlngton , Baltimore , Boston , Buf
falo and Albany registered nt the various
hotcJs. Many of the visitors seemed to
favor Sharkey , but they asked for cdds ot
ten to six and an a result they made few
wagers.
The sale of seats for the contest has been
enormous and the Indications point to the
largest arermbloge ever seen nt the rlng-
sldo in this country. Every box nnd moro
than half the reserved seats have been sold
tip to midnight tonight. As the manage
ment ot the Coney Island club Is charging
J10 moro for box seats than was ever asked
for u championship battle in this vicinity
before all concerned will reap n rich har
vest. The winner of the contest will re
ceive three-quarters of CO 2-3 per cent of
the gross receipts. It was estimated tonight
that the wlnucr'd share would bo about $30-
000 , qulto a sung sum for an evening's
work ,
Jeffries and Sharkey are scheduled to en
ter the ring at ilfleon minutes to 10 o'clock.
Ench principal has promised to bo In the
quarters at the clubhouse at 9:30 : o'clock.

eldo of thu building , the snmo ho occupied
when ho fought Kitzsimmons. Sharkey will

In tho-otUce of President A. C. Troui >
Thursday night for the purpose of com
pleting plans for the coming winter's sport ,
Heretofore games have boon plaved on the
exposition lagoon and the north lake In
Hanscom park. Because of the destruction
of the lagoon tbo games will probably be
confined exclusively to the park this season.
The members of the club are evincing an
Interest thus early which promises that the
coming winter will witness some decidedly
enjoyable contests. Interest will be con-
sldf nibly enhanced by reason of the medal
presented the club by President Troui ) last
year. This medal is now in the possession
of George Anderson , who won the highest
honors. Ono of the conditions of the con
test Is that any curler who holds it succes
sively for three seasons will come in sole
possession of it.
The officers of the Omaha Curling club
are : A. C. Troup , president ; George Ander
son , vice president ; J. C. L.lndsny. secre
tary ; R. G. Patrick. U. Melvln , J. AV. Dodd ,
Thomas Muldrum , AV. R. Adams , commit
tee of management. Assuming that the Ice
will permit , the club will hold weekly con
tests during the coming season. The an
nual compotltion for the Troup medal will
occur on New Year's day.

NEGOTIATE FIRST TREATY
Chlim anil Mexico Kilter Into a Con
vention for Mutual
AVASHINOTON , Nov. 2. For some tlmo
negotiations have been in progress In Wash
ington toward establishing treaty relations
between China and Mexico. The negotia
tions have been carried on by Ambassador
Aeplroz of Mexico and Minister Wu Ting
Fang of China and arc now so far along that
the signing of the instrument is expected
to occur early next week. Aside from its
Importance in being the flret treaty ever
negotiated between the two countries , Its
terms are such as to yield large bcnetlts to
each of the contracting parties ,
Provision Js made by which Mexico will
receive the benefits of the "favored nation
clause , " Insuring as low duties on Imports
as those given to any other country. Mexico
will also receive the right of extra-tcrrl-
torlallty In China. Another advantage se
cured by Mexico will bo access to the Im
portant treaty ports of China , which servo as
the gateways to the commerce of the em
pire. Up to this time Mexican trade in
China has been admitted nt the treaty ports ,
not ot right , but on suffrnnce.
On the part ot China other important
advantages are gained under the treaty.
There Is a considerable number of Chinese
In Mexico -who thus far have not had the
protection secured by a treaty and by the
presence of consuls and a diplomatic repre
sentative ot the government. China also
receives favored nation treatment nnd a
number of other advantages in trade anO
navigation. AVbcn the treaty Is consum
mated the two governments will proceed to
establish their respective ministers and con
sular representatives In each country. A
unique feature of the treaty Is that English
Is selected as the "official language , " insteai
of French , which Is the universal language
of diplomacy.

from Crucero Alto , the highest town In
the world , the Southern railroad of Peru
drops down Into the L.iKiinlllne , or
lake reRloii of the Cordllleins , where ,
14,230 feet above the sen , Is u
group of largo lakes of very cold ,
pure water without Inlet or outlet ,
They rocclvo the drainage of the surround
ing hills niul conccnl It somewhere , writes
u correspondent of the ChlcnRo Heconl , but
there IB no visible means of Its escape. A
frlngo of Ice forma around the- edges of tlu >
lakes every night the year round , yet they
contnln nn excellent variety of flsh , called
the pojerray , which Is caught near the shore
nnd sold at Puna nnd In other nelKhhorliifl
towns. The two largest lakes , Snracoeln
nnd Cochlpascuna , with several smaller ones
In the same neighborhood , are owned by
the family of Mr. Homnna. of Arcqulpn , who
has just been elected president of Peru. He
owns Immense trr.cts of land In this locality ,
with thousands of sheep , cattle , llamas , al
pacas nnd vicunas , which are herded upon It.
A curious phenomenon about the lakes la
that they keep at the same level all the
time , regardless of the dry nnd rainy sea
sons. No amount of rain will make any
difference with their depth , which , how
ever , In the center Is unknown. And this
adds to the nwo and mystery with which
they arc regarded by theIndians. . There
are no boats upon the lakes , except a few-
small balsas , or rafts , made of bundles of
straw , which keep very close to the chore ,
for fear of being drawn Into whirlpools that
are said to xlst In the center. There la
some foundation for this fear , for only two
or three ye-ars ago a balea containing five
men disappeared In the darkness , and was
never heard of again. Of course , It may
have tipped over nnd Its occupants have
been paralyzed by the cold water In art or
dinary way. Hut their bodies never wore
discovered , nor did the balsa ever Heat to
shore. Therefore the people think the whole
party was lured Into a maelstrom and
swallowed up by the unysterious waters.
The whirlpool near the center of Lake
Pope which receives the waters of Lake
Tltleaca Is well known and hundreds cf
men have lost their lives by venturing
too near It. Boats that nre drawn Into the
current are whirled swiftly around a few
times and ( hen disappear. Kor the pro
tection of navigators the government of
Bolivia has anchored n lot of buoys In
Lake Pope and boatmen who observe them
are In no danger. There supposed to be
an underground outflow from all of these
lakes. It Is claimed that articles which
have been thrown Into their waters have
afterward been picked up on the scacoast
near Africa , and careful observers gay that
on the beach In that locality are frequently
found cornstalks , reeds and other debris
which do not grow on the coast , but are
found In great abundance among the In
terior lakes.
WHY DO IIIHDS MIGRATE ?
Quentlon Which NuturallwtN Arc Still
Vnnlilc to u\Kfce Upon.
A scientific journal deplores the lack of
trustworthy data explanatory of the migra
tion of birds. Naturalists have alwavs dif
fered on this subject , and the reason whv
birds migrate Is fctill a mystery. It is un
doubtedly n matter of Instinct , and nlso of
example from older to younger bird ! , . In
many cases the setting in of tin early or
late winter may be foretold by the early or
late migration of birds from north to
south. Some extraordinary stories are told
of things done by birds In carrying- out this
migratory Instinct. It has been calculated
that the Virginia plover llles at n height of
two mileF , nnd nt a speed of 223 miles an
hour. It is recorded that a Wilson's black
cap warbler arrived at n certain bush in
the north in three successive years nt 1SO :
p. m. of the same day. One correspondent
considers that the migration is fullv ac
counted for by the susceptibility of the
birds to temperature Influences ; that they
seek in winter a warmer and in summer u
cooler air , BO as to avoid being subjected to
great climatic vicissitudes. But most
naturalists hold that the migrations nro
Inreelv a matter of thn search after food
They leave a given region because a specl-
llo food Is exhausted , nml thev flv to
another spoclllc region because the ex
periences of the tribe ns a whole have
shown that desirable food can be found
there. It Is not the winds that drive thorn ,
nor the temperature that tempts them : but
sheer htmsrer fo-n-s thorn from nno nlnoo
to another. The only weak point about this
theory is that often the birds dlsnroeai
without any npimront reason , when fond
conditions are seemingly perfect. The mat
ter is still as great n puzzle to the cleverest
ornithologist as to any one else.

( No\V York Sun. Oct. 25.1
The Now York State Medical association
began Its sixteenth annual meeting nt the
Acmlamy of Medicine yesterday. Physicians
from nil parts of the state \\erc present. Lr. )
Thomas J. Hlllls of this city stlired tip somu
discussion hy n paper en alcohol. Alcohol ,
ho said , was of many kimli. As an Ingred
ient In alcoholic drinks It Is not necessarily
harmful. New whisky ho denounced im unlit
for use.
It Is the quality ot the alcoholic product ,
not its quantity , that should be condemned.
Dr. Unite put alcohol first among general
stimulants niul heart tonics , and paid that It
was an excellent food in many cases where
other foods could not bo retained. Ho then
paid his respects to the temperance people In
the following manner :
"Tho man Is Justified \\lio , feeling Inse
cure , puts up n lightning rod to protect his
house ; so Is the man who cannot luiudlo al
cohol in a rational manner equally justified
In taking a pledge nnd attaching himself tea
a temperance society. There he will haVe an
opportunity with the others to put lilmself
on exhibition as a weakling nnd a jToraon
without moral strength or resolutionVtiut ho
has no right to denounce alcohol bTcause
of his weakness any moro thaiV he
should a lamp pool which hef" was
*
unfortunate enough to run foul oi when
under the lulluence ot his potation. The
phjelclan above all men must not bo fright
ened away from his obligation to hla patient
by the noise and clamor made by the clergy
man or the temperance orator , the fontncr of
whom may know nothing of alcohol , the lat
ter too much. It Is dinicult to contemplate
without pity the position of these poor men ,
conscripts from the medical profession and
others acsciubled In the moral blockhouse ,
unconscious that no war exists , but who are
fighting for principles that have been con
ceded , and deaf to the bugle blast of common
Ecnse , which demands rc < oscillation and re
union as a common benefit to all. ;
"Alcohol la a form ot food already digested.
"It has a place on the sldeboaid and It
must have a place In the sick room until we
discover another agent moro efficient { and
able to supplant It by virtue ot Its availabil
ity and physiological action. No such asent ,
however , line yet been discovered , the opin
ions of others to the contrary notwithstand
ing. " j
Duffy's pure Malt whisky is the purest al
coholic stimulant known to the medical pro
fession. No sick room or hospital should be
without It. Over 7,000 doctors , who bel'leve
as Dr. Hlllls does , prescribe and recommend
It ; It Is also used In nearly every prominent
hoppltal exclusively.
