PRACTICE 1T STANFORD.
Coach Camp Working the FootbaIlers
TtcO Hours u D0n


STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL, Oct.
29.-The announcement was made by
Captain Cochran to-day that hereafter
men must report for practice at 4 o'clock
on the "gridiron" instead of at 5 P. NJ.
This is due to Camps advice, he being, as
THE CALL stated several days ago, strong
in the belief that the players should be at
work at least two hours daily. After a
time there viii also be morning signal
practice.
The practice game last evening was one
of the best vet PLAYED. There was some
show of intelligence and team work, which
has heretofore been conspicuous only by
it's absence. Some of the players met with
slight bruises during the game, which will
keep them off the field for several DAYS. A
common complaint heard is that the play
lacks qulckness and vlgor; signals are
given too slowly. Camp expresses him self
heartily in favor of a snappy game, but
says that accuracy should not give way to
rapidity. He would prefer sure playing,
without fumbling, even though it were
slow, to cyclone playing, where the ball
was dropped at critical periods and the
game was unreliable generally.
Some of the footballers are so well salts
fed with themselves that they appear very
irregularly on the field which is going to
WIN a1luSAlP Oh tuS teiin IL persistent III.
There is general satisfaction over the train
ing-table fare, which is much superior to
that given the men last year.
The freshmen are working faithfully I'M
der Captain Mcintosh, and will make as
good showing as possible against Berkeley.
No one expresses confidence in a freshman
victory, for the light weight of the men al
most precludes the possibility. Berkeley
will easily outweigh Stanford freshmen
ten pounds to man, but the latter will
put up as good game as they can.

ONE BOOKM4KER HELD.
Racing Men of Morris Paris to Make a
Test Case.

NEW YORK, N. Y, Oct. 29.-Magis-
trates Crane and Kudlich in the Essex
Market Court yesterday began their
examination into the cases OF the Morris
Park racetrack arrests made last Thurs
day for alleged violation of the anti
gambling laws of the State The cases
against the judges, Robert NJ. Simmons
and Clarence Mcdowell, were dismissed on
motion of Lawyer steinhardt for the
prosecution. Then Charles }. Fitzpatrick,
the clerk of the scales, was discharged
from custody, as there could be no case
made out against him.
Delaney Nicoll moved in behalf of the
bookmakers that they be discharged, but
his motion was denied. Later, however, it
was decided to make a test case against
one of the bookmakers and with this end
in view Orlando Jones and his clerk,
Sturgis, were by common consent made
the defendants in the test case. The cases
against the other bookmakers were dis
missed.

ELECTRICITY IN TURKEY. -The Turks
have great dread of electricity, the
heathenish discovery of the Giaours, but
he Sultan has SO far torn himself from
the prejudices of his people as to permit
his Ministry of Marine to conduct a series
of experiments with electrical projectors
In the face of this concession it seems pos
sibIe that an opening may be found for
commercial electric-ighting in the coun-
try of the Osmanl1. AS matter of fact,
he Sultan's advisers are understood
under a heavy pressure of baksheesh, to be
willing to place the matter before the
Caliph in a favorable light, but to this
there is a decided set-off in the fact that
some of the royal family are extensive
shareholders in the local gasworks. Some
time ago the agent or an enterprising
American firm approached the representa-
tive of the Sultan with the idea OF develop
ing telephone work in Turkey. AS soon
as the Sultan got giimmering of what the
telephone was he firmly declined to allow
a single instrument in his domains. His
explanation was that if the Turks once
had access to such an instrument thew
would be plotting revolutions in every
town and in every street of the town. An
amusing incident is told by a well-known
correspondent of his experience in one
phase of Turkish official life. He received
an elaborate note from the department of
the censor of Constantinople. The censor
informed him that in order to make
message more accurate and explicit ten
words had been added to the telegram
which had been sent from the department
the previous night, and the correspondent
was asked to remit 50 TO pay for the added
words. Knowing well that it IS useless to
protest in Turkey. the correspondent sent
the money, but at the same time respect
fully suggested that if the censor would
write his message entirely and merely for
ward him the weekly cable bill it would
save him much unnecessary trouble. The
censor is taking time TO consider whether
this offer is serious or sarcastic.

JavEn in Well Contested
Events

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Oct. 29.-There
was a fair-sized crowd at the track this
afternoon, and a better day for racing
could not be wished for.

but it awaited her little. Jasper Paulson
forged to the front and had things his own
way to the three-quarters when McZeus

tremendous speed and appeared destined
to win, but broke. McZeus came in first,
Jasper Paulson second and Rex Clifford
third. Time, 2:17. There were seven
starters and Silver Bee was distanced. 1t
was an exciting race, and there was much
enthusiasm. In the succeeding heats the
order in the first was maintained.
The next event was 2:30 trotting. 1t
was close race in the first heat between
Lady Grace and Native State, and Native
State breaking at the drawgate gave the
heat to Lady Grace, with Native State
second and Charivari third. Time, 2:17.
Lady Grace won the second and third
heats. with Native State second and
Charivari third. Time, 2:1615 and 2:15L.
The great event was the 2:25 pacing for
three-year-olds Roam Wilkes was the
favorite. Hal Corbett took the pole. but
could not win. Javlin and Roam Wilkes
had blanket race from the three-quarter
pole and came down the stretch at 2:0S
pace. Javlin came under the wire first.
Roam Wilkes second, Hal Corbett third.
Time, 2:13H.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE officials
governing the conduct OF the press
galleries of the house and senate have
adopted a rule that will exclude from
the privileges of the galleries all legis-
lative Us well as executive clerks.
Clerks to members and senator's not
chiefly engaged in newspaper work
are those who are affected. The pros.
pect OF applications from many clerks
who depend on their salaries from
members for a living, but who repre-
sent small provincial papers, was the
prime object in the adoption of the
rule. The galleries are already
crowded and u limit had to be fixed.
