spectators, James J. Jeffries, who If to
fight Jack Johnson on the afternoon of
July 4, appeared. In the ring at an "ath
letic carnival" conducted by Jack Gleason,
one of promotora of big fight yesterday
afternoon. It was the first time that
Callfornlans have aeen Jeff since he sig
nified hl willingness to flfht Johnson.
The fight-loving puhllo of the city where
Jeffries won hli first great battles was
impatient to see If he had "come back."
From the applause that the returned cham
pion received as . he want through hl
pace It waa evident -that the public was
satisfied with his condition. lie skipped
the rope, did shadow fighting and other
stunts to show his speed. When his part
of the program was over Jeffries Jumped
from the ring and sprinted across the base
ball field to the etub house, outdistancing
Ms trainers.
No announcement was made today as
to whore the fight will be held, although

stated that ft would be held In California.; ' . , .
Tex Hlckard and Gleason will spend an
other day or two looking over the ground
before deciding the place.
Tex Rlckard said tonight that he was
still receiving telegrams from his backers
In Salt Lake City Instructing him that
tho Utah city desires to stage the con
test. Nelson Is Confident.
Battling Nelson Is so confident that he
will defeat Ad WolRnst at Point Richmond
on Washington's birthday that he will
meet Louis Blot and Jimmy Griffin, two
promoters representing different clubs, to
hoar their best terms for a forty-five-round
contest between him and "Cyclone"
Johnny Thompson, either on the Saturday
preceding or the one following Memorial
day. Nelson wdghed 13314 pounds tli.a
afternoon.
"Wolgast has been strutting around Just
as Munroe did after he met Jeffries In
Montana." he Said. "He has claimed that
ha made me back up. Well, 111 go after
him on 'Tuesday Just as Jeff went after
Munroe, and we will see who will
back up." Wolgast Is at the weight notch
that will permit him to make the required
133 pounds by fight day with little diffi
culty, lie t-nys he feels he will have lit
tle trouble in disposing of Nelson.
The betting still remains at 10 to 6, with
Nelson a strong favorite.

WOODRUFF TELLS HOW
PROFESSOR WAS FOOLED
Major of Regular Army Takes Khar
Issne with Theorists oa Army
Rations.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-MaJor Charles
E. Woodruff, U. 8. A., has taken sharp
Issue with some college theorists who think
thst the regular army soldier Is overfed.
Some years ago a squad of soldiers was fed
on a greatly reduced diet under the super
vision of a college professor to demonstrate
his point that people In general could live
on much less food than they consumed.
Apt.arently a satisfactory showing was
made, but now Major Woodruff has gath
ered evidence to show that most of the
soldiers suffered severely from the experl-
fected had they not secretly and unknown
to the professor indulged In extra meals
during the test.
Major Woodruff wants even more food
for the army, declaring that the t'nlted
States army Is. behind European armies in
that matter and favors an allowance of
50 cents per month for each soldier to buy
extra food.

"Churches must advertise "
"It Is time for tha church of today to
wake up and show some signs of life,"
said Rev. E. E. Hosman, pastor of the
Walnut Hill Methodist Episcopal church,
Sunday morning. "Too many people do
not even know where the churches are
located. Too few try to even Inform .them
selves of tie whereabouts of the churchea.
I venture to say that, aside from the
membership and the old residents, eight
tenths of the people of this beautiful ad
dition to Omaha do not know where this
church Is, or that there la a Methodist
Episcopal church at Forty-first and Charles
streets.
"This Is true of churches all over the
country and the matter should receive at
tention from those whose heart la In the
church work. "Wa live tn an age of pub
licity and the spirit of the times demands
publicity. The firms having the most en
during success are the firms which give
the most attention to advertising. Some
of you would be surprised beyond measure
If' you knew of tha money some of thesa
firms spend to let people know where they
do business.
"The church has worthy competition to
day more than ever before from good In
stitutions and these use methods of pub
licity and advertising. The church is not
popular with the masses of the people
In our day. One reason Is that too many
come to look upon the church as a two-by-four
Institution run upon a penny peanut
stand basis. It has nothing connected
with it which will put men upon their
mettle. This must be corrected.
"One way Is for the church Jto become
a living, energetic movement and not a
speechless monument closed six days in
the week and smelling musty on Sunday.
If the church stands for what we claim,
It should be t!ie liveliest movement In tha
community. Let the church try to do live
things and be worthy of attracting men's
attention and ability. Then it will attract
the eye and get the attention of the
people.
"One of the essentials In church adver
tising Is a holy enthusiasm on the part
of the members of the church. Show me
a successful business and I will be able
to show you that the men back of that
business are enthusiasts. They are not
ashamed of their business.
"Another essential Is regular attendance,
for that Is good advertising which works
both ways. It gives the man who goea
a better standing In his community and
also may Influence his neighbor to attend
church. Empty pews are not attractive
and have no holding power for strangers.
Men like to go to church where 'the crowd
goea.
"A third' essential Is a robust type of
Christianity which grapples with things
with a. spirit to win."

JAP VISITORS LEARNED THINGS
This Country's Wealth and Waatful
y Fore l a era.
The members of the Japanese commission,
who have been visiting tha great cities, of
this country, were profoundly Impressed by
many things; among others, the great re
sources of tha country, the wonderful maa
ner In which they are utlllied; the evidence
of Incalculable wealth, extraordinary use
of machinery, and splendid development.
Anther was the wastefulness of Americans,
as a class. In the home, aa well aa else
where. It was said that the wast of an
American family would support two Japan
eso families In comfort; which Is but a
paraphrase of remarks made many times
about the superior economy with which
household affairs are conducted In the older
countries, particularly In continental Eu
rope. , ,.
This may be very true, but It Is to be
noted, also, that this peculiar wastefulness
Is not a racial trait. It is one of the habits
of American life which tha European
adopts after he has been domiciled In this
country long enough to become American
ised In other respects, and to grasp the
American point of view.
The thlnga of which Americana are eco
nomical and other countrtea are wasteful
are time and physical exertion. The greater
perventage of American waste la due to
the refusal of Americans to waste time,
especially the well-paid time of others,
whom they are paying, aw material la
often wasted, because, aa a matter of
dollars and cents, It la mora economical to
permit It to go to waste than It la to use
high-priced labor to save it. Aa a minor,
and, possibly, a petty illustration, an em
ployer may figure that It Is cheaper, when
a highly paid mechanto drop a nail, for
example, for him to pick It up, when his
time may be worth 75 cents an hour or
some such sum,
An American manufacturer will throw
away perfectly good machinery, for which
he has paid thousands, when better ma
chinery comes In, which will do more work
with a smaller labor cost. Tha American
housewife will use tha expensive cuts of
meat because they can be cooked In a
palatable manner at a fraction of the time
and trouble that It would take to make an
appetising dish out of the cheaper cuts.
The American does riot waste labor, what
ever else he wastes; indeed, most of his
other wastefulness Is due to that one fact
Labor Is rated at a higher rate here than
anywhere else In the world In every con
ceivable way. A .foreigner visiting tha
United Statea Is always Inclined to hold up
hla hands In horror at American wasteful
ness of material. On the other hand, when
an American goes abroad, one thing which
tends to arouse a feeling 'of Irritation In
him, especially If he has been In the In
dustrial classes or If ha ba an employer of
labor, is to witness the extraordinary waste
of labor which passes unnoted In all coun
tries save this. Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

In Japan.
Japan has In Its main Islands, exclusive
of Formosa and Karafuto, a population of
48,642,736. and the ara of Its cultivated
fields Is 21,521 square' miles. This Is 2,277
people to the square mile.
There are also maintained 2,600,000 cattle
and horses, nearly all of which, are labor
ing animals, giving a population of 142 peo
ple and seven horses and cattle to each
forty acres of cultivated field.
One old Japanenw fanner told an Ameri
can visitor that he "owned and waa culti
vating fifteen mow ,p, land, which Is two
and a half acres, apd that besides his team
a cow and small donkey he usually fed
two pigs. " ' ' 1

rigid, accurate research work.
"I visited one of their dormitories' at the

Fukuoka experiment station, and here
young men are provided with room and

GRAND JURY WILL TAKE UP
MAN WH0ABUSES FAMILY
Will Go After Joe Smith, Against
Whom Hla Wife and Daughter
Will Testify.
The case of Joseph Toung, or Joseph
Smith, as Is his real name, will be sub
mitted to the grand Jury Wednesday, and
his wife and her daughter. Miss Franois.
17 years of age, will testify against liini.
Smith was arrested Sunday at the In
stance of his wife, on charge of drunken
ness and abuse of her and her daughter.
Their tale Ir revolting. They feared for
their personal safety longer and felt Im
pelled to divulge their secret to the police.
The man and his family called them
selves Toung, but Mrs. Smith told the po
lice their real name waa Smith. The fel
low waa In Omaha a year and a half ago
and waa sent to Sioux City on the charge
of embesalement with reference to the
theft of a team of horses. He was not
convicted and returned with his family to
Omaha.
"It was at that - time we adopted the
nam of Toung," said Mrs. Smith. "He I
told me wa would have to go by that name
from then on, as we did not want people
to know us."
After three weeks of terror and fear of
tha vengeance of her husband, Mrs. Smith
yesterday caused the arrest of her husband
at their home, 1923 Douglas street.
"Three weeks ago Tie ran me out of the
room with a gun and locked me up In tha
kitchen so that I could not protect my
daughter, Frances, from his advances,"
waa Mrs. Smith's statement to the police
yesterday afternoon when ahe appeared
at tha station.
She declared that her husband, whom
she married seven years ago, had not
worked since Christmas and that in the
period since he had been drinking and
abusing the household continually.
Mrs. Smith has three children by a for
mer marriage, a son of 19 and two daugh
ters, 17 and 16 years old. The work of
these three children Is now supporting the
home, according to the mother.
Frances, the girl of 17 years, verified
her mother's statements with an even
more pitiful recital.
"He used to come home and kick over
the table if we didn't have what he
wanted to eat," said the girl, telling her
story at the police station. "He's got a
gun hidden out there now."
ETIQUET FOR YOUNG WOMEN
Woman's Pride Should Always Yield
to Maa'a Feellnar of Self
Respect. It Is not considered very good taste to
Insist on paying such trifling sums aa
omnibus fares when out with friends,
especially one's seniors.
Of course It may happen that a girl has
for escort a young man who has been
deputed to see her home after an at home
or reception. In such a case many a girl
wonders if sh should allow him to pay
her cab or railway fara.
As a rule she may, though If she la one
of those considerate, nice girls, who dis
like putting themselves under an obliga
tion of even a trifling kind to any young
man, she may feel that aha would prefer
to pay for herself.
But one haa to remember It Is very
humiliating to a man to be placed In such
a position and a girl should sacrifice her
own wishes to his sense of self-respect.
Were she to rush at the cabman, fare In
hand, the pride of her companion would
suffer In wondering what the cabman
thought of him; for men are more sensi
tive than women to the opinion of others,
even their inferiors.
HOLME LACY CHANGES OWNERS

After comfort the first best
investment in an automobile is
reliable tire equipment.
There is no tire problem with the Franklin. You have no
tire worry; you do not have to carry extra tires nor encum
ber your automobile with extra att'thrr.-its and quick-removable
devices.
We make the tire question a straight engineering proposition.
We are not afraid, because oi cost or any other reason, to do it
right. We put tires on that are large enough and strong enough,
with margin to spare, to do the work. Such tire equipment
costs us more, but the ultimate cost, the cost of using, is less to
the purchaser.
Compare the sires of tires on 1910 Franklins with the sizes
of tires on other 1910 automobiles.
Reliable tire equipment pays a big dividend every day In
the year. The ordinary tire equipment draws on your capital
all the time. It may give you value received in rubber at so
much per pound, but not in service. Figure it out yourself.
Four-inch tires on a 2000-pound automobile are worth twice
as much and last twice as long as the same four-inch tires
on a 3000-pound automobile. The reason is that every five
per cent increase in the weight of an automobile adds fif
teen per cent to the wear and tear on the tires. Therefore,
the average water-cooled automobile with its rigid construction
and extra weight due to water-cooling apparatus, weighing as it
does a third more than the Franklin, wears out tires just twice
as fast.
