THE RACES Open TOMORROW
A Strong Program for the First
Day
THE LOS ANGELES DERBY
II Will Be Started With the Austr allan
Starting Device
A Hot Light Harness Battle on the
Initial Day-Other Good
Events.

The races commence at Agricultural
park tomorrow and all indications point
to the best meeting in the history OF
Southern California.
The Australian device of starting
horses, which has generally come in
vogue since it's introduction at Ingle-
side track, less than a year ago, will be
seen in operation at this meeting The
Los Angeles Derby Is to be started with
the gate, which will doubtless have a
tendency to bring out big crowd AS
the distance is one mile, the start will
consequently be made directly in front
Of the grand stand, so that every one
will have ch.Nlce to see the machine
at work. Starts are made in one and
two minutes, entirely doing away with
the long delays that are bound to occur
when the starts are made by a human
flag wielder.
The policy Of starting in fair week with
one Of the strongest programs of the
entire meeting meets with popular ap-
proval. and instead of the usual three
and four hundred there are very liable to
be as many thousand spectators on
Monday. Those who admire hot light
harness battle cannot afford to miss see
ing the 2:14 class trot between such fast
and thoroughly game campaigners as
Mamie Griffin, Chris Petersen, Gallette,
Jasper Ayers, Rex Clifford and Challenge
Chief. This is a grand band, and it will
put the shrewdest judges on their met
tie to select the winner. The best drivers
in the state will be seen in the sulky, and
brilliant contest can confidently be an
ticipated
The 2:2O pace will bring together
George r., May Nutford, San Luisito,
Gladys W., Montecito Boy, Juliet D.,
Jennie Nc, and Beachwood This is
big, and SO far as known, we'll matched
field. With one or two exceptions, all
the entries to this event are owned in
different towns in Southern California,
and as several score up for the word for
the first time this season, 1t will be no
easy task to pick the winner.
Both the running races promise to be
good betting events, which is criterion
for excellent sport. There is absolutely
no doubt that the card offered race goes
at Agricultural park next Monday is the
best ever offered by an association in
California and probably by any fair as

THE L1vER1Es OF CHICAGO.
Colors and Cuts Affected in the Estab-
lishments of the First Families

The fact that Mrs. Potter Palmer's
footmen have appeared at Newport in
gorgeous liveries will probably lead to
the gay adornment of other Chicago
footmen and coachmen. Mrs. Palmer's S
footman wore wine colored velvet knee
breeches and long tailed coat and black
silk stockings, fastened at the knee by
gilt strap and rosettes.
In the past the liveries worn by the
Chicago men servants have usually
been extremely plain, and the footmen
have worn very quiet colors. The only
striking liveries have been those worn
in the service of Mrs. Franklin Mac
Veagh and Mrs. Potter Palmer. The

TO REVISE FOOTBALL RULES.
University Club ofNew York Request
ed to Call "A General Conference.

The University Athletic Club of New
York has been informally requested 10y the
representatives OF five colleges-Yale. Har.
ward, University OF Pennsylvania, Prince
ton, and Cornell-to call a general confer
ence to settle the existing differences in
college football rules.
President Cuyler OF the University Ath-
letic Club said that the request would
undoubtedly be complied with as soon as
the club was formally notified. Two such
notifications have already been received,
and he thought the matter would be settled
within forty-eight hours. In all likelihood
the meeting will be held some time next
week.
Mr.. Cuyler was anxious to have it under
stood that the University Athletic Club
does not call these annual conferences ex-
cept at the request of the colleges. Also
that nothing but differences in rules will
be adjusted at the coming meeting. II
Harvard and Yale wish to kiss and ma ke up,
that will be an outside matter.
The object will be to fix up uniform
set of playing rules. which will be OH
served from the Atlantic to the Pacific
and not have different regulations govern
ing the big games. such as happened last
year. California is to be represented at
the conference. and Paul Dashiel of Lee
high will also be present in the capacity
OF adviser.
The Yale Alumni Weekly says: at was
learned few days ago from chance con-
versation with certain graduates that Yale
IS expected to soon make a definite move
In the direction OF football legislation that
might have yery important results. Some
members of the University Athletic Club
OF New York are quoted as expressing the
opinion that Yale is ready to join other
Eastern universities in an inv itation TO the
club TO call convention for the revision
of football rules"
II this is true it may mean that n long
step is soon to be taken looking toward
the reconciliation Of Yale and Harvard.

Skaters at Convention Hall Are Out
| of the Biting Winds.
Although the last few days have been so
cold that ice has formed at Chevy Chase
lake and other places, the temperature has
been so cold and the wind has been so
strong as TO greatly mar the pleasure of
skating.
Those who have heretofore INDUCED their
passion for this sport outdoors now seek
the splendid surface at the Ice Palace at
Convention Hall, where there are no dis
comforts of frigid temperature or cold,
raw winds. The accommodations there
are ample, and every convenience for per
sonal comfort is found.
The luxury of skating indoors is just be-
ginning to be realized, and Convention Hall
is crowded with delighted patrons at every
session. In the afternoon the ladies, per-
haps, are more numerous because they
find it easy to get way from home at that
time and then they have the advantage of
the instructors assistance.
Skating is now as much of a craze rs base
bali in Washington and the interest is on
the increase every day. There is no spe-
ciaI program mapped out next week at
the Ice Palace, except that II is expected
there will he a race on Thursday evening
