TURSDAY....-+--JAN. 16, 1900 ronere HE DESERVED. Pagllist Jeffries’ Father . Called Down While Preaching in Stockton. The Mail gives this account of the rebuke that Preacher Jeffries received the other night at Stcckton : Jim Jeffries, the champion pugilist, evidently did not come from fighting stock—at least not on his father’s side, occurred on the Piaza_last evening when Rev. Jeffries was struck in the face by a stranger in the crowd who had taken exceptions toa slurring remark made by the preacher. Jeffries allowed his arms to fall to his side and made no attempt to defend himself or retaliate. The facts which led up to the incident are as follows : For several evenings Jeffries and his co-religionists, who are called “Pilgrims on Earth,” h.ve been preaching on the Plaza, their discourse being, for the greater part, a tirade against followers of beliefs other than theirs. Last Tuesday evening the Sisters of Charity and the priests of the Catholic church were alluded to most insultingly, it is reported. A gentleman remarked to a Mail reporter this morning that Slattery, the alleged ex-priest who spoke here to men only about the Catholic faith, was mild in comparison with Jeffries. Some of the remarks by Jeffries are said by those -who heard them to have been unfit for! publication.. : On other occasions Jeffries had spoken very disrespectfully about other religious beliefs, being especially bitter against the Methodists. Last night he said that while it was true that a negro would steal chickens, so would a white man. For theseremarks he was “called down” by a colored preacher of this city, who has also been heard to preach and sing on the Plaza and adjacent corners in the evenings. Jeffries has made himself offensive night after night, and passers by who have heard his statements have . frequently remarked that he shoald be put off the street. Persons who were present say that while he was talking last evening he declared that all white men were liars and that anybody who said they were not was a liar. The words were 10 sooner out of his mouth than some small man, whose name could not be learned, took hold of Jeffries’ beard with his left hand, and with his right dealt the preacher a blow in the face. Jeffries had a cane in his hand at the time, but he allowed his hands to drop to his side. At this juncture two other men in the crowd hustled Jeffries’ assailant out of the throng which had gathered and which was increasing rapidly. Both pitched into the man who had struck the preacher, and there was considerable excitement for a time. No one knew the assailants of the man who had taken exception to what Jeffries said. Jeffries had little to say after that, and his remarks were of a much milder nature.

The article is-heavily illustrated with pictures of people who for the time being have tried to be somebody else. ie A broker asserts that the Christmas tips in Wall street amount annually to nearly $500,000.

The People of Marysville Enjoyed the Nashville Students’ Show. The Nashville Students, who are to play bere tomorrow and Thursday nights, appear to have graduated so far as pleasing an audience is concerned. The Marysville Appeal ‘says: _ “Their entertainment last night was good—omitting adjectives which from overwork have lost nearly all significance. There was a fairly good attendance on hand and applause was ire: quent and sincere. The Nashville Students are simply a Company of singers and dancers. [hey don’t pretend to doanything else; but they do claim to be pretty near.all right when it comes down toa question of warbling and side-stepping. And, last night they made their boast good. . It was an entertainment worth witnessing and very enjoyable. “Each member of the company did very-well indeed, and to discriminate in favor of one or two would be unfair to the others. Yet it might be said, considering that it was the only thing of the kind in last night’s entertainment, that the recitations of Miss — were exceptionally pleasing. “The cake walk and. buck anieiey, which closed the performance, were above the ordinary run of such exhibitions and drew forth the hearty applause of the audience. “Tonight the Nasbville Students will appear at the theater again. A two act comedy will be presented guaranteed to make everyone laugh and be a sure cure for the ‘blues.’ There will, of course, be singing and dancing—and everyone who missed last night’s entertainment should be on -hand this evening. Those who were at the theater last night can be depended upon to turn out again this evening, circumstances permitting. The prices are reasonable; the entertainment will be amusing; come one; come all.” Died of Consumption. George E.
