FORTY-FIRST VICTORY.
New Olympic Lightweight Football
Eleven, Formerly Y. ". G. a.,
Defeat the Imperials.

Defeat the Imperials.
Yesterday forenoon at the California
League grounds, corner OF Sixteenth and
Folsom streets, the new Olympic light
weight football team, formerly the Y. NJ.
c. A. coast championship eleven, defeated
the heavier Imperial team by score of
19 to 0.
Imperial went into the game or short
notice to fill date made but abandoned
by The Oakland High School team.
The feature of the game was beautiful
field goal kicked squarely between the
posts from the 35-yard line by Evans, full
back for olympic.
He came within few inches of dupli-
caung the performance a few minutes
lster. 1t was the second field goal kicked
Ny Evans In games this season. although
none have ever Deen kicked by the uni
versities i'll their entire seven seasons OF
playing. The running and tackling OF
Wilson and Hamilton OF olympic were
also noticeably good.
After the first kickoff bv the 1mpe
rial eleven Symmes of Olympic broke
through their lire, grabbed the ball on
fumb! and protected by Wilson aud
Hamilton sped to the goal line and over
it for the first touchdown.
The ball slipped and Symmes missed
the goal. 1he second touchdown was
made by Keller on long-end run. Again
Symmes missed the goal. Soon after
Evans made his successful drop kick fror,
the field and the first hall ended with 13
points for Olympic.
Early IN the second half Hamilton, the
Olympic halfback. skirted the Imperial
tackle and ran to a touchdown, from
which he kicked a goal and made the
score l9 10 0. Thus the game ended, and
The little lightweight eleven had scored
its fortyfrst straight victory during it's
three years paying as team.

S. JACKSON APPOINTED,
The Treasury Department Per-
emptoriy DeS gnates Him as
Special Deputy.

Special Deputy.
The Treasury Department has ad.
dressed a pertinent. letter to Collector
Jackson designating the Collectors son,
Stanley, as the special deputy. This ac-
ton is said to have been taken becau-e of
the protests of the Civil Service Commits
sion, which body has been scandalized
by the Jeromizing of the Custom house at
this port.
Ii will be remem bered that the Collec-
tor did not name a special deputy until
after he had appointed his son Stanley to
the position then occ pied by Colonel
Tobin. Jerome was appointed, but the
Treasury Department rejected The ap-
polntment on the ground that the de-
partmen. had been led TO believe that the
appointment of Stanley Jackson had
been made as special deputy.
Then the Collector announced publicly
that he would not appoint any special
deputy whatever, and Jerome con tin ned
doing business at the old stand, solving
knotty questions for brokers and import
ers and giving orders to Deputy Collect
ors (his supericrs) jut as he used to 90
when he was special de putty Under Col
lector Wise. He is still there, exercising
the same authority.
1t was probably FOR this reason that the
Treasury Department saved the Collector
the trouble or responsibility OF appoint
ing the special deputy. Those who chafe
under the domination of Jerome say that
a few weeks more will bring The Jerome
dynasty to an end, and that clerk l, class
g. in charge of division 3, will be place
III charge of his division, and the deputies
will be permitted to occupy the stations
to VIII ch they are entitled by virtue Of
their office.
