He is not capable of seriously adjusting his actions to remote ends. JOHNSON UNPERTURBED.

Though fresh arrived from an Irritating rallroad journey fraught by vexadelays, his face was placid and tlous lineless. Nor was there the hint of a sign of care and worry such as would expected from his disagreements with manager, from the abrupt shift of quarters at the eleventh hour training and from joy rides Interrupted by rude police. quality, differing so widely in This the men, cannot be overemphaif one is to get an adequate comprehension of the fight when it takes They say Johnson cannot place. a grudge. who does him a or fancied injury today is received by him week hence, and this 80 because a moment of life at a time good enough for him.

He cannot to more than the moment, be It hold a moment of fierce hate or joyful friendship. A HOMELY ILLUSTRATION. Possibly a good conception of this difference between the two men may 1 gained from my own feeling about them. It Johnson should upon me in anger and with fell intent to do me bodily injury, I feel that all I would have to do would be to smile and hold out my hand, whereupon his hand would grip mine and he, too, would smile. On the contrary, I am certain, if Jeffries rushed at me in wrath, that if I did not die of fright there and then I should bite my veins and howl in maniacal terror.

The illustration may seem far fetched, but it 18 just the way I feel and it serves to show essential difference in the characters the men. thee Jeffries is a fighter; Johnson Is a boxer. Jeffries is more primitive, more ferocious, more terror-inspiring. He has the temperament of the fighter. old Mother Nature in him is still red of fang and claw.

He is more a germanio tribesman and warrior of two thousand years ago than a civilized man of the Twentleth Century, with the civilized trade of boiler maker and he had bridged the gap by turning pugilist and becoming mightiest walloper of men in all the earth. JEIF IS MORE DISCIPLINED. Another thing, despite Jeffries's primitiveness, is more disciplined than the other man, vastly more disciplined, as instance the rigid adjustment of action a remote end when he began a year half ago and faithfully carried through the heroic course of training that him in the superb condition he is today. Johnson, mastered by the moment, could make no such an adjustHe would forget all about that rea year and a half away. The moments would tantalize him pursuit of immediate and momentary It is safe to predict that if Johnson at this present age leaves the ring for two years that he can never come back again.

And by the same token down in the heart. of him, this fight does not mean to Johnson what it does to Jeffries. If Johnson loses the fight, he won't be worried much. If Jeffries loses it will almost break his heart. that dark and somber seriousness that characterizes him there is a race pride of which he is intensely selfIn Then, too, there is the pride himself as a man and as a subduer of men.

NOT UNITED, BUT IN HARMONY. Representatives of North and South Discussed Missionary Work. Sometime the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, may unite.

If they do, the combination will make the most powerful Protestant church organization in the country. But now questions of property, church legislation and administration keep them apart- questions that have arisen since the separation of the churches in 1844, The original cause of separation-slavery-disappeared disappeared long ago. In the meantime the two work in absolute harmony. One church does not go into territory naturally tributary to the other. It 18 the border states between the old North and South, Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri, that they ever conflicted.

Of recent years the matter of church extension in these states has been made one of joint discussion by the boards of church extension, and the work has been carried on harmoniously. The foreign missionary fleld has been divided, so that if ever two churches do unite they will not find themselves with a double equipment in some places. A meeting of the members of the churches to promote and enlarge this spirit of co-operation was held at Central Methodist Church, South, Eleventh Street and the Paseo, last night. Bishop E. R.

Hendrix of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and the Rev. Naphthali Luccock of the Hyde Park Methodist Episcopal Church, who was a fraternal delegate to the national conference of the South Church in Asheville, N. a short time ago, spoke. -FIVE YEARS A PRIEST.
