V|N|NG TALKS TENDERS.
He Is Waiting for the Super
ViSOrS to Name a
Device.
ALWAYS READY AND WILLING.
The Board May Decide Next Mon
day and the Company
May Do Likewise.
ALWAYS READY AND WILLING.

''This fender matter is all with the
Supervisors, said Superintendent Vining,
when spoken to about it yesterday. You
know that they passed a resolution as long
ago as last July in which it is expressly
stated that they (the Supervisory shall
first accept the device and that thereafter
we shall be required to fit the cars with it
within thirty days. The resolution per-
haps states it the other way-that after the
Supervisors decide upon fender accept
able to them the company shall have thirty
days in which to equip the cars.
$50 far as we are concerned" continued
the superintendent, 1--WE have been ready
and willing to equip the cars with any
device acceptable to the Supervisors from
the day the original resolution was passed.
I'VE submitted two days after its passage
a device that, in my opinion, is as good as
any submittei since. 1t was simple
scoop of our own construction. We have
tried every device presented since and in
vited the Supervisors to witness them.
''Of the three shown the other day one
broke down. The other two seemed to
have favorably impressed those present.
One of them is fender used with good re-
suits in Baltimore. 1t is a. double fender,
one on the front of the car, the other back
on the truck. / believe the fender striking
out in front is more of a source of danger
than otherwise. 1t is habit of men-and
women and children, for that matter-to
give themselves just space enough to clear
the car in running in front of it. They
keep their eye on the body of the car.
Now if there is election of two or four
feet in front it is very likely to hit them
on the ankles. have no doubt this has
been the cause of majority of the cases
that gave the fender its good reputation
the outside fender knocks the man down,
and the inner one picks him up, and word
goes abroad of another man saved by the
device. The fender under the car would
do the saving as we'll without the outer
one.
~ do not suppose any device will ever
be constructed that will entirely prevent
these unhappy accidents. So far as these
scoops are concerned they will not do it.
/ believe the fender-boards now used are
as effective as any of them. A man or
child falls in front of car, their hands
are stretched out upon the ground, the
fender is as close to the surface as it can be
placed, butt rides over the hand and is
lifted up and passes over the body.
I $50 long as little children or men or
women run in front of the car .unexpect-
eddy these accidents will happen. We are
ready, however. to equip our electric cars
with any sort of tenders which the Super
yisors may direct as soon as is possible
after they nominate the Device"
Supervisors Benjamin and King and
Wagner were asked as to the status of the
fender question.
Mr.. BENJAMIN said: 'There have been
only two tenders OF all the series exhibited
that to my mind are worth considering at

to California will be in the nature of an
outing and vacation for the whole party.
Walter Camp was born April 7, 1889. He
prepared for college at Hopkins Grammar
School, where he captained the school
eleven. In the fall of 1876 he entered Yale
and then began an unequaled record of
athletic prominence, even for 7 ale man.
He captalned his freshman baseball team
and his freshman football team and played
halfback on the varsity. In his sophomore
year he won the high hurdle. IL his
junior year he captained the varsity foot
ball team, and in his senior year he cap
tanned both varsity eleven and the varsity
nine. He rowed iii his class crew, and
was one of Yaie's representatives in the
first intercollegiate tennis tournament in
America.
In all he played in the Yale Varsity
eleven for six years, and was in every ale
Princeton match in that time. The last
two years he spent in graduate work at
his alma mater. For four years he played
on the varsity nine, on which he was
again elected captain in his first graduate
year, but he resigned, expressing a belief
that varsity teams should be captained by
undergraduates.
Camp is not only Yale's oldest and most
valuable coach, but he is the instructor of
every coach Yale has ever had, to say
nothing of her veteran players that have
come to this coast as coaches-such men as
McClung, Heffelhnger, Gill, Butterworth
and Laurie and Pop" Bliss.
1t was through his efforts that many
notifications were made in the old Rugby
Union game. He it was who instituted the
idea of working off the field by line every
five yards so that actua lprogress with the
ball could be readily determined. II is to
this peculiar method of working that the
Anne rican collegiate football field owes its
name of 1.-THE gridiron field
Camp also introduced interference as a
feature of the play.
This years Stanford coach has the adj
vantage in knowing the players, for he
coached the team last year. Furthermore
he knows the general style of play of the
Berkeley team, and it is always an adj
vantage to know Just what to prepare for
from opponents.
Walter Camp was Stanford's first coach;
he trained the team of '92, when McClung
coached the Berkeley team, and the game
resulted in the first tie-10 to TO- But that
year Camp was with the Yale team until
after their big match. Last year, for the
hrst time, Walter Camp absented himself
from the Yale campus during the majority
of the training season, and this year he
will again cross the continent to father the
interests OF the Stanford men, who have
come to share place in his affections, so
long exclusively held by Yale's famous
players.
At Stanford University everybody likes
Walter Camp, the coach, the interesting
lecturer on athletics and the genial gentle
man. By the faculty he is treated as one
of their mum Der, for his influence upon the
men and for gentlemanly athletics is very
evident.

Booth got out of the hospital he was

He fought desperately to get away, and
his yells brought timely assistance to the
steward. 1t was evident that he was in

him back into padded cell. He will be
taken before the Insanity Commissioners
this morning for examination.

His Bill Was Favorably Acted
Upon by the Senate Yes
terday.
THE DEBATE WAS FEVERiSH
CIVIL SERVICE BY 0zMUN.

The conflict between the friends
of taxing railroad lands and those
opposed was renewed on a smaller
scale in the senate yesterday after
noon. The occasion was the cOnsld-
Grafton, in committee of the whole,
of Senator Coles bill to distribute
the gross earnings tax received from
railroads among the counties OF the
state The bill provides that sum
equivalent to five cents per acre
shall be distributed where there are
untaxed lands. 1t is probable that
this bill inspired the introduction of
the resolution by Senator Knatvold
to inquire what lands are exempt
from taxation, and where they are
located, and by what roads they are
owned.
After introducing a number of
amendments and speaking upon the
bill by Senator Cole the debate
warmed up. Senator Barr was in
the chair.
Senator Wyman started the en-
thusiasm in a vigorous speech of OPP
position to the passage of the bill,
claiming it would give railroads an
excuse to work against the Ander-
son bill. He advised the friends of
the bill TO tax railroad lands to vote
against this bill. as its passage
would reduce to naught the hard
work made for House File No 1.
Senator Cole refuted the claim that
his bill would jeopardize the bill to
tax railroad lands. He had support
ed the other bill, and had not found
another friend of it who thought his
bill inconsistent His view was that
the people in his part of the state
had just claim upon part of the
gross earnings.
Senator McHale opposed the Cole
bill, and denied that the northern
part of the state had any right to
demand part of this tax as a mat
ter Of right. He alluded to the old
debate upon the Anderson bill, and
said he was curious to see what
result its adoption by the people
will be upon the gross earnings tax,
but he felt satisfied that the gross
earnings tax would be jeopardized
He opposed the Cole bill because it
would give the people of one part
of the state money which they have
not earned, as had been by the peo-
pie in the southern part of the state,
and who would not receive benefits
by this bill.
Senator Howard reminded the SEN
ate that he had promised to vote
for such measure as this when ex-
planning his vote against the An
derson bill. He had some doubt of

FLAMES IN A MATCH FACTORY
Cause a Panic Among the Work.
Ing Girls.

CHICAGO, March 22.-Fire in the
Square Match company's works, at
Union and Erie streets, today caused
panic among the fifty girls en-
ployed. One was perhaps fatally
burned and three others seriously in
jured by jumping from the second
story windows. The injured are: An
ME Hans, Jennie Warner, Roy Tate
and an unknown girl.
The injured were removed to a hos
pital, where it was said all would re-
cover, with the possible exception of
Annie Hans, who caused the fire. She
was opening a box of matches, which
ignited, setting fire to her clothes.
Rushing screaming through the fac
tory, she scattered the burning match
es about the place, setting the building
on fire. Dashing through a second
story window, she fell senseless to
the pavement below, followed by a
dozen of the terror-stricken girls. The
remainder of the employees escaped by
the stairways and fire escapes. The
fire was extinguished with slight loss.

Victim of Faith Cure Cranks.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, March 22-
Mrs. Ella Sands, the wife OF a Whit
tier blacksmith, gave birth to a child
two weeks ago. During her confine-
ment she was denied the usual medical
attention, and even skilled nursing. In
stead of providing medicine and nour-
ishing food, her husband, a Christian
Scientist, summoned a practitioner or
that belief, whose sole treatment con-
sisted in praying for the young moth
er's recovery. After three days of
this treatment, violent fever set in.
Even then the homely remedies were
despised, prayer still constituting the
sole treatment. The woman died this
morning, and the husband will be held
to the coroner's jury to explain his
action.
