The credit for Jeffries' notable victory be longs to the men who prepared him. Billy Delaney, who developed the Corbett that whip ped john L. Sullivan, was his gulde. With the eye of an expert he studied and guarded his physical development, and Tommy Ryan and Jim Daly, taught him the science of the ring. In six weeks they accomplished, with the excellent material in their hands, what ordinarily takes yents of actual experience to do. They had raw material, and whipped it in- to shape.

The barbour question would thus be effectually solver, it is said. Undoubtedly the project has attractive features. At present all goods for the north and west have to be carried up the Sumida River in fighters, fander and stored, and ultimately taken again from the ware-houses for trusport to the distant milway stations, There are thus three distinct operations, transfer from Ute cange steamer to fighters transfer from the lighters to godowns, and transfer from the godowns to railways. But if the steamers could come alongside at Shina gawa, it would be possible to land the goods at the railway station itself, and put dicta in board the cars at once. There would, of course, be an immense saving of time and money. Can the nibour problem be solved in that way, howryer?---Jäþau Mail,
