The limitations and expansive

they may clear up the logged con-

cRoSS ARRIVES At STANFORD.
The Coach Sizes Up" the Men Who
Aspire to VARSITY Football Team
pocjf6one

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL, Sept.
1S.-The big Stanford coach and trainer of
the Stanford football team, Harry p.
Cross, arrived this morning and brought
with him feeling of encouragement and
enthusiasm. He spent the morning look
ing over the grounds and getting
acquainted with the players, whose efforts
for the coming months he will direct.
His appearance at Encina was the signal
for an overwhelming demonstration of
student satisfaction, with which the big
fellow was evidently pleased. In talking
over the prospects and plans for the
coming season Mr.. Cross said:
"What do l think of the men? Well,
that is a little bit premature, as l haven t
seen all of them yet ana none of them
lined up. But so far as can judge STAN
ford has excellent material for an eleven.
The men are big, stout fellows and look
like hard-workers and as though they all
took good care of themselves. If that is
the case it won't take long to get them
into condition fer putting I'D strong
game, and I consider eight weeks amply
sufficient for training team"
As to the character of the training, the
coach said that he didn't believe in long
or violent training.
"What want to do is to keep the men
at regular work every evening just SO long
that they are not tired out. l desire to
have the men eager each day for the next
days practice and to keep up interest in
that manner. Much responsibility. of
course. rests with the boys themselves.
They must appreciate the game and re-
member that they are working for their
colleges reputation on the athletic field.
This should be sufficient incentive for
them to play good game and train con-
scientiously. don't believe, however, in
having the men worn out each day-that
results from entertaining"
Speaking of the line he said: I'VE will
devote special attention to making the line
impregnable. Yale has always relied more
on straight football with q strong line than
on trick plays with an uncertain line. l
shall follow out that policy here and teach
the fellows few or no tricks. They never
work well in tight holes and the good
strong game is what counts"
Cross doesn't have much use for GYM
nasIum work for football men; he believes
the men improve in wind, endurance and
muscle more by outdoor exercise than in
door work.
"Will you put on q suit ana get into the
play occasional.y2" was asked.
"WelI, not at once" was the answer
Later, however, expect to play with the
fellows to teach them what l can by per-
sonal opposition in the line"
Cross will be here until after the big in
tercollegiate game on Thanksgiving. He
is stopping on the campus, where he can
oversee the mems work. He is delighted
with the location of Stanford and its entire
makeup.
This evening he had the men at a regu-
lar practice game for a half hour, before
which the candidates were punting the ball
under his supervision. He expressed him
self as very favoraply impressed with the
work and appearance of the players.

AWFUL MURDER IN KANSAS.
Seamsfress Hacked TO Death With O
Ratchet While in Bed-Rob6ery
the Motive.

LAWREN CE, KANs., Sept. 1S.-An afro
cious murder was discovered this morn
ng when neighbors of Miss Martha Nc
Coy entered her room to ascertain why she
had not made her appearance as usual
They found her lying on her bed mangled
in horrible manner, while the bed itsel
was saturated with blood. which had
dripped on the floor and formed a pool
there.
a single glance only was needed to show
that a dreadful crime had been COM
mitted. Lying on the bed close beside the
body of the unfortunate woman was a
Ratchet, its blade and handle all blood
covered, while the dreadful gashes in the
woman's head showed how effectively it
had been used.
The alarm was at once given and the
police took possession of the premises, but
were unable to discover any clew to the
murderer. From the condition of the
body when found it was evident that the
woman had been dead several hours. The
murder was probably committed about
midnight or shortly afterward.
Miss Mccoy was a seamstress. She had
worked hard and had accumulated consid-
cradle money, large part of which she
kept in her room. 1t is supposed that the
murderer learned that fact and entered
the room during the night for purposes of
robbery. Miss Mccoy probably awoke
while the man was at work, and to save
himself he killed her. He had ransacked
her room and had evidently secured the
money Tor which he had searched.

CLEVELAND, ONO, Sept. 1s.-Captain
Arson of the Chicago ball team yesterday
advanced novel reason for the postpone
ment OF the game between Cleveland and
Chicago. Play was interrupted on account
OF the wet grounds, and while the early
rain did not appear to be heavy enough to
render the grounds unfit for playing, when
the hour for the game arrived it was dis
covered that League Park was the damp
est place in the neighborhood. Arson
was greatly disappointed and not dis
posed to take the disappointment good
naturedly.
1T is Tebau trick" he said. ''He has
used up his pitchers on US and would have
to put IN Young or Cuppy. he wants to
save that pair for Cincinnati, SO wet
grounds is the excuse. You can't tell me
that amount of rain made all this mud.

PACIFIC GROVE, CAL, Sept. 1s.-The
most exciting game of tennis ever wit
messed at this place was played this after
noon on the city courts. The contestants
were Ed Finley and Dudley Hamilton
against James Harper and A. w. Jones
Jr. Both teams played in the Pacific
Coast tournament on the Sth and 9th and
did good work. There was great rivalry
between them. A large crowd was In at
tendance this afternoon. Harper and
Jones played a game after the style OF the
Whitney brothers and did excellent work
all through the match, but this style
of playing being rather new to them they
lost. The score was: GO, 1-6, Cd, S.

believed the losers of to-day's match will
capture the cups. Jones holds the county

MEDFORD, MASS. Sept. 1s.-An enor-

afternoon to witness the iree-for-all pacing
contest in which Robert J, Frank Agan
and Star Pointer were entered.
The race dedeveloped the three
fastest consecutive heats ever paced,
while in the first heat the New

beaten and worlds pacing record for
half a mile was established by Star
Pointer.
When the horses were sent off in the
first heat Star Pointer had the pole, with
Robert in second place and Frank Agan
on the outside. AT the quarter, which
was made in :293l, Pointer was in the
lead, with the others at his heels, and
when Star Pointer passed the half in

a tremendous shout went up from the
throats of thousands of spectators. The
three-quarters was passed in 81 Il, with
the positions OF the racers unchanged.
Into the stretch they came at record
breaking gait, all three working as steadily
as engines. Pointer shot under the wire a
winner by half length in 2:021l, and
when the crowd realized the fast time that
had been made the excitement was ire
mendous.
In the second heat Star Pointer led from
