COLLEGE ATHLETES.
Winter Carnival of the New Jersey
Athletic Club Opens Tonight

New York, Dec. 17.-Everything is in
readiness for the winter carnival of the
New Jersey Athletic club which will be
opened in Madison Square Garden to-
night.
A remarkable feature of the tourna-
ment is the representative college entry
in fact, the meeting is looked upon
as a grand opportunity for studying
the new material at Yale, Princeton
and Pennsylvania for the season of
1898. The programme tonight consists
of ten events besides the championship
dumb-bell competition, which Will ex-
tend over both nights. A series of
highly sensational contests may be ex-
pected, especially in the sprint races.
The 80 yards special race is the main
attraction tonight. B. J. Wefers, the
Georgetown flyer, has been prepared
with a view to lowering the worlds s
record. The record for the distance is
515 seconds, made by L. E. Meyers
some 13 years ago, and it will be inter
esting to watch Wefers' effort. He will
have sturdy rival in J. Harland Rush,
now of the Princeton university.
There will be 40 competitors.
The 22O yard hurdle race will be
sharp contest. One of the largest
fields ever seen in New York will turn
out for the mile run. The $50 yard
handicap has attracted so aspiring
candidates. and the novice quarter will
be productive of good sport.

Mrs. Mulvany made morning call on
Mrs. McCarty, her friend, with a shawl
over her head.
"Marnin to yees' she began. "Sure 7
