the Western boys uinjthing they have yet found Tbe ma against whom they are to compete an entirely unknown to them The pipers this morning announced that Crum the great Iowa sprinter bad arrived in Chicago to run so that the reports of his turning professional are undoubtedly untrue He will win both the 100 and the 220 yard runs hands down The Caicago papers announce that tbe Ann Arbor team came to day and that they have a suty three foot sbot potter If this is so it means they will win the event Among their entries is A Finley who throws the hammer These are the initials of tbe great Harvard thrower of some years ago and if it be the aame man Edrren will have no easy task It Cram runs Barnes will probably be pat in the quarter mile run and Koch will run tbe half though he Has not

from those la 4M on the Coast being machthlnnet and longer Besides this they are wrapped tor most of their length with rsbbir mending tape such as is used fa repairing bicycles This gives a better grip and at the same time is safer aa tbe pole is not so easily splintered This tape is alio used on the hammer handles and makes slipping almost impossible By the wari speafclna of hammer throwing i nave not louna a single eastern college man who tjses the double torn practiced by Edgren They almost Invariably throw from a single tarn I think this advantageous to a heavy man out to a light thrower 1 scarcely think enough speed Is generated Another rery noticeable feature In the East is the superior starting It is very seldom that oa men are left less than yard at the jump off and frequently the amance is rouca greater from a comparison of records it seems that in many of the running races the Easterners are far ahead of us and I think I hare found the reason On the Coast a man snail in distance races especially holds himself In until the finish and it be finds he is not pushed he finishes In slow time Here in 4ne qttarter mile especially everybody breaks for the lead from the start and it usually jw yarns before the men begin weaken from tbe terrific calL Then tbe finish is purely on grit and here at least that seems to be a gTeat deal for many races are finished where the runner is not able to see where he is going It seems too bad that a better track is not provided at the Berkeley oval where tbe intercollegiates are held To look at the track it seems as tine any in the country out one run on it and all is dlf lerenL there is absolutely no life in it no spring at alL It js no better than a stone pavement The Princeton track is tbe best we have yet found but in texture even that cannot compare to our tract at Berkeley Wer the turns on tbe Berkeley trace wider I belief it would be one of tbe fastest in the country California can learn a thing or two from her Eastern cousins however on the methods of running a Held day At the intercollegiates the men were all made to come out fifteen minutes before the con ier and sit on tbe bench while the roll was called A second roll was called as the men stepped to tne scratch and any man not answering to his name was stricken from the roll The decisions on the inside track and the arrangement of the men wss left entirely with the referee as was the drawing of men for tbe beats There wa not a hitch in the entire performance and that is ssylng a good deal when we consider that there were over six hundred entries If such stringent rules were only used on the Coast there would be much better crowds to see the games instead of tbe tew who have patience jo see one event after another dragged slowly out When our boys get back to the Coast there will be a revolution in athletic methods and there are sure to be changes inaugurated which will boom track athletics Fhed Koch i Mintfisjifiasa Bowed

baffled the detectives for three months Mr Hermanoa home near Cincinnati hut be was a frequent visitor to Chicago stopping at his a liters residence and bad many friends in this city Three months ago he disappeared from his home and since than his sister and friends here had been seeking reasons that would account for his mysterious absence The mystery was cleared op by Hermanns dog which traced hfs master and dug up his body from the bank of tbe Ohio river opposite Cincinnati An attempt bad been made to poison the dog which was kept la the hospital foi two months or more in consequence and there are other indications that Hermann was murdered Mr Endlar will go to Cincinnati to morrow to help rnn down the murderer Mr Hermann was a man of considerable jwealthand a member of the Cincinnati liquor firm of Heifferich fe Co Although 41 years of age he had never married In addition to his business In Cincinnati he owned a fine farm near Dayton Ky TUB AMERICAN FARMER Comments by the London Times on Agriculture In ThU Country Loxoos May 31 The Timet this morning has an editorial commenting upon the agricultural report of Hugh Gough first secretary of the British Embassy in Washington It adds All the dismal comparisons contained In this report tell one tale of enormous production at unremunerstire prices With exceedingly cheap land and with economy of production and handling to a remarkable length by commercial ingenuity the American producers are yet oamea Dy me magnituae oi meir own operations Loudly as the American farmers complain they at all events hare plenty Most of them would probably have tailed io enjoy as much as this had they remained in European cities to glut tbe la bor market They desire however to command more of the good things of life and it is from them that the demand comes for all sorts of economic experiments They are firm believers in the notion that an increased currency would causa a rise in prices Therefore ther are an easy prev of the wily persons who want to sell silver But the price ot grain at Liverpool wduta not alter though every Western farmer bad all tbe silver currency the mine owners are anxious to supply LKK TTJKX UCiT GO

entered the United States having been a laborer when hare before When arrested he was found working at his trad of cigar maker in Chinatown but he claimed that be Waa a merchant because be had 1900

Marshal to California and irota there deported to Chinar Special DiisatchM to tbe CHftosicut New Yosc May 3L A bowed tendon 1 wilt place the crack California tour year old Key el Santa Anita on tbe sbelf for some time and make him an absentee from the Suburban handicap at Sheeps head Bay on June loth tbe race for which the son of Chevis was being especially pointed The colt came East this spring in a perfect blatft ot glory having won a number of splendid races in the West and South and with an accredited trial over the Louisville course of a mile and a quarter in 206 Ha carried more money for the Brooklyn handicap than any other horse that started for that event with the exception of Dr Rice and Bamapo wbo were practically equal favorites in the betting While Rey el Santa Anita ran well up on that occasion the track was not at all to his liking and tbe colt was not seen at his best until he won the one mile and a sixteenth race with 125 pounds in the xaddle going tbo distance in 148 making it one of the best performances on record from a time standpoint When the three year old Keenan and the rive year old Stowaway disposed ot him the cult lost his admirers but it now appears that there were goad reasons why be was beaten on Thursday thi injured tendon being so badly bowed that Trainer Hild relh caled in Dr Sbephard of Sheeps head Bay lo day The colt will be let up in his training and with care he may ract again some day But bowed tendons are not the nicest things in the world for a race lorse to carry around in good company and a horse wUb such ailments does not train long He is always under suspicion Bejel Santa Anita was considered a red hot factor in tbe coming Surburbnn and as such he will be missed He has had plenty of racing since be first appeared on the turf His star performance was the winning of the American Derby at Cnicago laat year LIBKKTINK BUKNS DP BlONKT With Lumps of Backlog He Kant Unplaced In a FlMd of DOL St Louts May 3L At the Fair
