Sk etanipemampenenescre JEFF NEVER FLINGHED IN PAINFUL OPERATION NEW YORK, Oct, 28 Jeffries had a slight operation performed on his nose yesterday and today declares that as a result he is fooling better than he has at any time In thé last six yoars. In his first fight with Bob Fitssimmons the lanky one pounded Jeff so hard on the nose that he nev has been able to breathe properly since, until yesterday Jeffries was of the opinion that his nose had been fractured. When he went to the surgeon he was told, much to his surprise, that he was not suffering from a fractured nose, but only from a fleshy growth tn both nostrils. Jeffries decided immediately that he wanted the growth burned out and the surgeon wanted to give the big pugtlist an opiate, But not for Jeff. He told the surgeon to spread a little cocaine around the affected part and go to work Despite the fact that the “medicine man” burned out the fleshy growth with a wire which had been attached to an electric battery, the fighter is said not to have winced “Tt was the most romarkable tnstance of nerve that I have ever witnessed,” sald the surgeon as Jeffries hopped out of the chair, “He must have suffered great agony but be did not even unclasp his hands while the operation was being performed.” Before ieaving here Johnson wired Sam Berger asking him to arrange for a meeting with Jeffries so that arrangements for the fight could be quickly made. Berger replied that he and Jeffries would be ready to meet John son and his manager on Thursday olght, when it is expected the final articles will be signed.
