Yale Getting Very English.

Yale graduates who hear q great dea
about Bob Cook coaching the varsity

ing new and foreign ideas are begin
ming to wonder whether Cook won't be
ing to teach them the English accent

Of their trousers before entering the
boat. Captain Cook really seems tt
have become thoroughly saturated with
British ideas regarding rowing, and the
famous Cook stroke" has almost dis
appeared. This is the first year thai
Yale has tried another than the ole
fashioned stroke that has brought vic.
tory so often.
1t is the first year since 1890 tina,
Yale has purchased cedar shell for the
varsity. The wooden shell will be tried
along with the paper boat, and the one
that gives the best satisfaction will be
used in the race against Cornell and
Harvard. The stroke has been increased
from 26 TO 30 and 3 minute, and this
seems to have caused a good deal OF
trouble The big oarsmen don't seem
able to hit up the speed as lively as
Cook wants them to do, but it is Eng
lish, and that seems to be the Cook syn
onym for success. New York Adver-

TIE SPORTING WORLD.

Years ago William b. Curtis, the vet
sran athlete, was "A famous sprinter He
tells the following story about himself:
About 20 years ago he took part in a
100 yard dash held on the Elysian
fields, Hoboken. Bill Wood, the we'll
known athletic instructor, was time
keeper. In announcing the time Wood
had very serious look on his face He
announced 1t as 90 seconds. Curtis
smiled and went back to him. saying,
Are you sure that you are right,
Wood?" "Oh, yes, William You are
running very fast, he replied. Bill
walked back 10 the other boys and told
them Of the good joke he had on Pro
lessor Wood about the time. Since that
day the absurdity of those 90 and Ga
second records has been plain to every
one. About 20 years after this Bill Cur
tbs saw Wood at the Caledonian games
at Jones wood, and, being in humor-
Gus frame of mind, he thought he would
go over and talk to him and recall that
celebrated race and see if Wood still be-
heved he did 90 seconds He felt thor
oughly convinced that Wood would ad-
nit his error at such late day. APP
preaching him, Curtis remarked: Good
morning, Mr. Wood The boys are run
ming pretty fast today, amt they?"
"Oh, yes, they are, William; running
very fast. - But, Mr. Wood, do you
recollect about 90 years ago l ran 100
yards at the Elysian fields, Hoboken, in
919 seconds? Are you still convinced
that that time was correct?" Professor
Wood looked Bill squarely in the eye
and replied soberly: William, you
were running every fast that day, very
fast indeed. New York Sun.

ern Part Of the State

1t has now been learned that Mrs.
Stanton, who was arrested in the NAM
moth shoe store few evenings ago, is
a professional ehoplifter and has been
convicted for the offense several times.
A letter was received by Chief Glass
yesterday from Chas. Lloyd, chief Of
police at Oakland, giving some inter-
esting information regarding the
woman's record. Mr.. Lloyd stated that
Mrs. Stanton has operated extensively
in Oakland and in San Francisco county
under the name Of Emma Freeman. She
had also gone under an assortment OF
various other aliases, among which were
Lenora Stewart. Emma De Lacey and
Emma Stanton.
On August 8, 1895, she was convicted
on a charge Of shoplifting in Alameda
county and was sentenced to eight
months imprisonment in San Quentin
under the name Of Emma De Lacey. It
is thought that the woman's true name
is Emma Stanton De Lacey. This is the
name found in the Bible in the room.
