SENATOR STANFORD ILL.
His MaIady Not Considered Dangerous,
but II Keeps Him Confined.


A rumor was current yesterday that Sen
ator Leland Stanford was very i'll, and that
his family had little hope of bis being able
to go to Washington this winter.
1t was given out that the Senator had re-
ceived severe stroke, which had left him
very weak ard confined to his bed.
A CALL representative visited the Stan
ford residence yesterday afternoon aud In
CURED if there was any truth in the rumor.
Mrs. Stanford was not able to receive the
caller. as she was busy attending to her hus-
band.
Mr.. Nash, the Senator'S private secretary,
answered the inquiry, however.
1.-The report of Senator Stanford being i'll
Is true" said Mr. Nash, but it Is not as
serious as has been reported.
HE was taken sick about three weeks
ago, just about as we were starting for
Washington; in fact our trunks were
packed and ready 20 be sent to The ferry
when the first symptoms OF his malady ap-
peared.
This was brought about by his taking
some medicine which disagreed with him.
bringing on a stomach trouble. which made
him a very sick man for month.
He has been under the care OF the family
physician, DR.. Curtiss, and has been on the
raid road TO recovery ever since.
yesterday he was able TO take two
hours ride in the park, and we hope to
start for the East within week.
His Illness has left him very weak, but
with this exception he Is as good as ever
and will soon be able to attend to his bust
ness affairs.
The Senator and Mrs. Stanford were pre-
pairing to take ride in the park while the
reporter was there, and Mr.. Nash gave the
information that they would probably 90 to

TWO HUGE HORNS.
They Are Ordered by the
'Varsities.
How the Cobwebs VIII Be Scraped
From the Sky at the Big
Football Game.

Probably a few of the intercollegiate
football lovers will be little disappointed
when they learn that the next game, on
February %, between the teams from the
Stanford College and the University OF
California, will not be an intercollegiate
game. When the last football game was
played on December 10. which resulted in
draw, the teams wanted it played out or
some future date. which was aftefward
decided on, February % Many OF the
players did not know that intercollegiate
football could be played for the supremacy
between tie two teams but once year, or
at least they did not think of it at the time.
On looking over the Rugby rules that was
found 10 be the case, so an intercollegiate
game for the championship cannot be
played with two full college teams.
But there is always way to get around
rules, so the Stanford team has decided to
drop out a couple of the player who played
in the last game and fill their places with
some Of the Olympic Clubs team.
As there is much rivalry existing between
the Olympics and the Universities, as was
shown in the last game that they played
together the change in the players will not
make much difference.
Tie gate receipts OF this game, after de-
Quoting the expenses. will be divided among
the charitable institutions. All this has
been left to Harold Phillips, who is managing
the interests of the teams in this city. Mr..
Phillips said yesterday that be had $4,000
tickets printed, and TO any charitable insti-
tuition that will apply for aid lie will issue
TO ii certain number of tickets to sell, the
proceeds Of which it can keep.
Mr.. Phillips said that he thought that
this would be the best way, as he thought
that If the charitable institutes wanted
some of the receipts they ought to do a
little work for them, aud besides more
tickets will be sold, as people buying
tickets from charitable institute are doing
an act OF charity. combined with the
pleasure OF seeing the game.
Both teams will make things lively with
their big horns at the next game. Stanford
has ordered horn from ST. Louis, Mo. 1t
will be fifty feet long, the fare being fifteen
feet in diameter, A special wagon will be
built for 1t, as it will have to accommodate
80 horse power engine 20 blow the horn.
Underneath the horn will be four musical
notes. SO when the Stanford boys get to the

A QUESTION OF CONTRACT.
The HeydenfeIdt viii Contest-A New
Phase of the Fight.

The HeyGenfeldt VIII C0nteSt-A New
Phase of the Fight.
The contest of the last will Of the late
Solomon Heydenfeldt was dismissed on
motion of the contestants in Judge Cotfey's
court yesterday. The battle for a slice Of
the estate will, however. be continued in
another form. The children of the widow
Henrietta will make their fight on the
strength OF the validity Of contract to
which the widow Elizabeth is claimed to be
a party, and by the terms of which she
agreed to pay them $4,000 upon condition
that they should withdraw their petition to
set aside the will.
Elizabeth Heydenfeldt, on the ground
that the contract had been entered Into
without the consent of her attorneys, re-
fused TO be bound by it,
When Judge Coffey announced yesterday
that he would first try the will contest At
torneys Kowalsky. Kelly and Osmont, rep
resenting the contestants, saw that in the
event Of the contest terminating unfavor-
ably to their clients the contract would be
worthless. They therefore elected TO dis
miss the will contest and to stand by the
contract.
The trial was set for Monday next at 2
p NJ. Mr. Kowalsky said his clients did not
ask for jury trial, but Judge COffey stated
that he woald have jurymen ready in case
either party desired To have jury sworn.
