Naval Students Who Were disciplined by
tho Snapshot Process
The snapshot" camera has been
jeered at and Sneered at in many
places and at many times, and the
camera fend" has been excoriated for
his crimes, but the camera sometimes
performs the functions of dis
ciplinarian with success. a naval
officer once found it more efficacious
than any article of war and more per-
suasive than court martials. 1t was
while he had under his tender care An
napolis cadets.
There was one thing that this officer
could not teach the youngest men in
the naval academy, says the New
York Tribune, and this was not to
squirm and start and jump and plug
their ears with their fingers when the
heavy cannon were fired. It was of no
use to argue with them; when the guns
began to roar they forgot tho argu-
ments. Pleadings were in vain and re-
proofs were useless. 1t was highly
ridiculous and anything but martial
to have a lot of young men whose pro-
fession it is to make war when war Is
needed act like schoolgirls when the
sea artillery was in noisy operation.
Finally the officer hit upon plan
lie had camera trained" upon his
gallant cadets without their knowing
it, and then he ordered broadsidc after
broadsidc to be fired. The noise was
thunderous, and the actions of the
cadets were as usual most undignified
and most unwarlilxe. A few days later
some excellent nhoforranbc of f1,o
young men acknowledgements" were
hung in prominent positions to be a
perpetual reproach to those who
plugged their ears. Those photographs
did their work we'll The next time
the cannon roared the cadets stood
like statues carved from stone, petri-

camera" and its brutal frnnkness.

HE REFUSED TO DIE,
The Miraculous Resurrection of an Old
Man from tho Grave

LILO HlrnculouS resurrection OF an Old
Man from tho Grave.
Jules Garlic, of Juneau, is seventy
eight years old, but vigorous and we'll
preserved. Twenty-six years ago no
was living In New Westminster, b. G.
One morning Us he sat in restaurant
awaiting his ordered breakfast he sud-
denly died-at least there was every
physical evidence of death A compe-
tent physician examined him and pro-
nounccd him dcad-n victim of heart
disease. lie was laid out for burial and
his friends kept tho usual vigil over
his body.
All the time he was lcenly conscious
of what went on about him and could
realize the fate in store for him, and
yet he was as helpless rs if he had
been really dead. In the afternoon of
the next day his friends bore him in
sadness to the graveyard. lie suffered
untold ugonies lying in the coffin, with
the lid fastened down. He tried in vain
to move or mako u noise to Indicate
that he was alive. The trance held him
deathlike prisoner. Finally he could
feel himself being lowered into the
grave. AS the first clod of earth struck
the lid of his coffin he began feeling
warm blood pulsing from his heart. All
at once he could move his hands. He
struck the coffin lid and called out for
help. The alarmed pallbearcrs stopped
shoveling dirt into the grave. He called
again. The majority Of those present
beat hasty retreat, alarmed over the
fact that the dead had como to life.
One courageous friend unscrewed the
lid of the coffin and helped him out.
He never felt better in his life, and ran
about exercising his benumbed limbs.
The people believed they had witnessed
q miracle. He returned to town and
entered the restaurant, hungry for sup
per, and when the cook and servants
saw him come in wrapped in his shroud
they rushed out through windows and
doors shaking with fright.

man Of the world was wont to call,
not infrequently, upon young widow,
says the Illustrated American. One day
the pretty maid at the door announced
that her mistress was out of town. On
some pretext, however, the man en-
tered. He also talked to the maid.
Some days later, knowing that the lady
had returned, he called again. He was
a bit surprised when strange maid
met him at the door and showed him to
the little reception-room. When she

The maid held it open for him, and as
he passed through it she blurted out:

JONES' FAREWELL GAME,
The Australian Handball Cham.
pion Defeated by Three
Players.
His Friends Tender Him Testimonial
Benefit at the San Francisco
Court.

J. Jones, the Australian champion,
played his last game of handball in this
City at the San Francisco court yesterday
afternoon, as he will leave for his home in
sydney, Australia. by Thursdays steamer.
Handballers crowded the court, as the oc-
casion was in the shape of testimonial
benefit to the clever and popular Austria
liam, who has done grand work in adj
vancing the interests of the sport on this
coast.
He played against three well-known ex-
ponents of the game. Harlow, the coast
CHI ampion; J. Lawless, the veteran, and
W. Williams, the Bostonian. He had
been out of a practice for a month, which
placed him at a disadvantage, and the
three succeeded in defeating him in three
straight games. II he had been in proper
condition the result might have been the
other way, as he would at any time have
secured numbers of men to back him
against any three players of the coast.
In the first game he started off with sew
enteen consecutive aces. Williams fol-
lowed with fifteen and Lawless and Harlow
made UP the balance. The second game
was quickly decided, and after an inter-
mission of ten minutes the third game was
started. Both sides stood at IA to IA, with
Jones' hand in, and his friends were conf
dent that he could run out, but unfortun-
ately he failed to score, and the three made
up the necessary seven.
Jones was loudly cheered on entering
the alley, and at the conclusion of the
match he was again the recipient of hearty
cheers and his friends insisted upon q
speech. He briefly thanked them for their

a DESPERATE MANIAC.
Edward Weir Almost Escapes From the
Receiving Hospital.

Receiving Hospital.
Edward Weir, a powerful young fellow,
was arrested Saturday night at the instance
of E. A. Denicke, who regarded Weir as
unsafe to be at large. He had threatened
to kill himself and several others. Colonel
Denicke. in speaking of the prisoner, who
will be examined to-day by the Insanity
Com missioners, said:
This man Weir, who have had locked up
on the charge of insanity, is d dangerous mono
maniac who, if given all the rope he wants
will end up in sanguine trouble. He has
greatly annoyed respectable families in this
City for some years. He has not been arrested
before because people feared the publicity at
tached thereto. He has already threatened to
kill himself and others. An asylum is the
proper place for him, where he may be cured.
The surgeons and stewards at the Re-
ceiving Hospital had desperate battle
with the maniac last evening. Weir was
confined in one of the wards of the hosp1-
tai. When DR.. We'll and several friends
opened the door Weir threw them aside
and made a dash for liberty. He reached
the entrance to the hospital where he en-
countered Stewards Booker and Callihan,
who endeavored to secure the escaping
man. The latter developed the strength
of half dozen men and almost overpow-
cred his captors before other help arrived.
He was placed in padded cell.

made from the platform that he would
sing "Cast Aside,'' and his many friends
made the welkin ring with demands for
a repetition of the song. The young
guardsman acceded to the request by re-
peating the last stanZas several times. after
which huge floral shield, bearing the
words CITY Guard in red flowers on a
white ground, was handed across the foot
lights. Mr.. Kelly also contributed to the
entertainment by taking the part of Rock
efeller in the burlesque, "Patti's Farewell"
AS for the rest of the entertainment it
brought out the same old favorites, run a
little more to flesh, and a few new per-
formers who may or may not become
favorites. Billy Rice's spirited quips and
querks and chortlings were not anv the
less relished on account of his growing re-
semblance to large, good-natured toad,
and Bert Shepherds adipoIse tissue
seemed to add weight and responsibility
to his humorous philosophizing.
The concert part of the programme was
about up to the average of local amateur
effort though the Jokes, old and new, with
which it was interlarded added spice and
variety to it. Billy Rice's Telephone
Rapid Transit" act was amusing, though
Uncle Josh" which dashed across the
stage. and, like the grandfather's clock,
stopped Short suddenly. 1t could
scarcely have been from design that the
dummy "Uncle Josh's' feet were project
ing from the wings in full view of the
audience, while the real ''UEcle Josh" was
stepping gayly onto the stage.
Charles Ernest, the monologue artist,
yodels like gentleman who is learning
the art, but the very roughness of his eff
forts reused the audience to roars of laugh
ter. As Mr.. Ernest was suffering from
the sort of cold that makes barry tone
sound like deep bass, it is scarcely fair to
judge his yode1ing. His voice may be as
smooth as slippery ice when it is in proper
form, or he may have affected the rough
ness to provide amusement. If this was
his object he was entirely successful, for
he received several recalls.
Siegrist and Higgins are grotesque
tumblers, who hit one another hard and
resounding whacks and who fall off chairs
and trapezes in a way that would main
most people for the rest OF their natural
lives. "Patti's Farewell" which con-
Guided the entertainment yesterday, is a
buriesque which brings in most of the
members of the company.

will be Walton, Mcmillan, HARRISON,
Clemens, Downing and Abe Lewis. These
men can spend but a few days here each,
but their supervision will be of material
benefit in getting the team in condition.
Among the new players who have come
out lately and who show decided talent
for the game are Adams and Fisher. The
latter has been tried at tackle, and as he
has the football build of Jack Reynolds,
the prospects are that he will make a star
some day. Bunker, Steele, Pauly and
Jeff are doing first-class work. Bunker
makes one of the surest tackles at end that
has been seen on the campus. He has a
peculiar knack OF picking out the man
with the ball and never fails to bring his
man down. He is poor at getting down
on kick, however. and has some other
minor faults that must be remedied. Jeff
has come to the front with rush. During
the short time he has been playing he
has made some of the prettiest plays ever
seen on the Stanford gridiron. He bucks
the line like Erankenheimer himself and
his tackling of late has been superb. He
is very sure and downs his man hard.
Had he several pounds more weight there
is no doubt that he could give any end
here hard fight for his position.

HARD PRACTICE AT STANFORD
The Varsity Football Team Getting Do,cn
to Steady WOrk.

~ otSUUB
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL, Nov,
10.-The returns from the production of
GAS You Like IT, were considerably less
than previously estimated. Not over 700
were present and the result is that the
manager of the '97 class annual will suffer
a loss OF about 500.
After the presentation of the comedy
Friday ate rnoon the football men lined
up for practice and were kept at it for
three-quarters OF an hour. The game was
rather weak, especially considering that
the big Intercollegiate match is so soon to
take place. At times the Varsity line men
work admirably and manage to make con-
siderable ground against the second eleven
line. Then there will be a streak of
mediocre playing and the second eleven
will virtually outplay the first team
Camp can see no reason for this If
regular play and shakes his head omin-
ously when the subject is mentioned to
him.
There is one noticeable change for the
better, however, and that is the spirit and
enthusiasm which seem to animate both
players and students generally. Ever
since Camps very pointed rebuke of the
apparent indifference of the men and of
their scarcity OF numbers a transformation
has taken place. There are now thirty or
forty men out each evening. and as fast as
the second eleven are winded new players
are substituted, so that the Varsity is
kept playing against a pretty strong ag-
gregation from start to finish.
Several of the best players are laid up
for repairs at the present time, so that the
Varsity is much weaker than would
otherwise be the case. The injuries of
some of the men are serious enough to
make the chances of their participating in
the Thanksgiving game problematical.
Yesterday morning the players were
lined up by Camp at $50 o'clock and kept
playing for nearly two hours, with but
little intermisson. His entire efforts are
directed to stiffening the line, which is
lamentably weak at times. 1t gives way
before heavy plays by the second eleven,
when its weight, properly used, should
prevent any gain of the opposition. The
players seem too easy-going and are not
aggressive enough for Camp. AS long as
the line is in such a condition the backs
cannot be coached, for they are tackled
whenever given the bali before they have
fair start.
Manager Eaton states that he expects TO
have several old Stanford players down
here in the near future to aid in coaching
the team. Among these assistant coaches
