SAN FRANCISCO, Dee. 8. - The
State Supreme Court has reversed the
Judgment of the Superior Court of
Modoc County in the case of James
Cluff, convicted of poisoning one Miller,
his rival in a love affair, by means of
strychnine placed in sugar. The de-
fendant appealed and the Supreme
Court finds that an instruction of the
court was clear error and that testi-
mony for the prosecution, which great

STOCKING DARNlNG.

Plain, Practical Instructions on q Com.
monpiace Subject.
There is difference of opinion as to
whether the darning should he on the
right or the wrong side. A writer in
the Boston Cooking School Magazine
gives preference to either of the follow
ing ways, making the darn wholly ON
the wrong side or darning up and down
parallel with the ribs ON the wrong side
and turning the stocking to the right
side Tor the second set of stitches. From
the same source comes the following:
In choosing material with which to
darn choose that which corresponds as
nearly as possible with the threads Of
which the stocking is made. The stock.
ing to be darned should be held 80 that
the part to be mended is firmly but
smoothly stretched over the hand The
darning ball ia inclined to stretch the
stocking and therefore the hole to be
darned. II the edges of the hole are rag
ged, draw them as nearly as possible in
to their proper place, taking few
stitches with needle and thread. Begin
to darn as far from the hole as the stock
ing shows signs of weakness This, OF
course, helps to decide the shape of the
darn. .....,,.-
In beginning take few small run.
ming stitches on the needle parallel with
the ribs Of the stocking. In coming back
begin little above this last stitch and
take up the threads that were passed
over in the preceding row. Do not
draw the thread up tightly, but allow
at the end Of each row small loop tc
be formed, although the threads must
be drawn up evenly. The length Of
each row is increased until the middle
Of the hole is reached, when the rows
should diminish in like manner. This
prevents the strain of the darn from
coming on any one set Of threads. Al
the hole Is reached care must be takeI
that the loops at the edge Of the hole arr
taken up.
Finishing the first set of stitches, tn,
one at right angles is made in simila
way. taking up one Of the first set o
stitches and passing over the next ant

THE HORSE SHOW
H. j. Crocker Suggests an Elaborate
Coaching Parade

Mr.. Wooster, secretary of the horse show,
is still in San Francisco, completing arrange
ments with the Southern Pacific company
to bring down the exhibits of the gentlemen
in San Francisco and Burlingame who will
compete in the horse show. He is meeting
with gratifying success.
Walter S. Hobart has promised several
carloads of horses and carriages, and Henry
j. Crocker has made entries in fifteen or
more classes.
Richard McCreery, who has achieved so
much fame as judge at the famous horse
show held annually at Madison Square gar
den, New York. has consented to act I'M a
similar capacity during the horse show here,
in connection with Mr.. Beylard and Mr.
Kirkpatrick, these gentlemen judging the
harness classes.
Henry Crocker has made a suggestion that
bids fair to be pretty feature in Los An
geles during the coming winter. He is organ
izing coaching parade, which will be par
ticipated in by Mr.. Hobart and others, be-
sides Mr.. Crocker, after the horse show.
These coaches are to be driven along the
principal thoroughfares of Los Angeles.
They will probably drive in body over to
Pasadena.
1t has been suggested by many of the
associates of the Horse Show association that
the valuable cup offered by C. P. Huntington
of New York be awarded to the California
bred horse which takes the most ribbons
during the coming horse show. This would
seem to be an admirable way of arousing
interest among the owners of California bred
horses, some one of whom will be fortunate
enough to carry off the trophy offered by
Mr. Huntington.

SPORTS OF The DAY
POMONA AND U. S. G. TO MEET ON
THE GRIDIRoN
ANNUAL THANKSGIVING GAME
Rivalry Keen and a Good Match An
ticipated-Line-Up of the Teams.
Bicycle Races

This morning at 10 o'clock the gridiron at
Fiesta park, on Grand avenue and Pico
street, will be the scene of the annual strug-
gle for football supremacy, between the
University of Southern California and Po-
mona college. The rivalry between these in
stitutions is very keen and this game will
will afford their students an opportunity
for lively exhibition of college spirit. On
last Thanksgiving day the U. S. G. eleven
defeated the Pomona boys on their own
grounds and the latter will make desperate
struggle to prevent repetition of that
game. The varsity men are as determined
to keep the balance on their side of the
ledger and will make a game fight to that
end, so that an excellent game should result.
The Pomona eleven averages 100 pounds
in weight and have been training faithfully
for the past two months, under Coach
Charles Allen of the '95 team of Wesleyan
university. Their team work is good and
will be very effective during the progress of
the game. Cooper the center, is new man,
but is playing his position well and passes
the ball accurately. The right guard, Peter,
is heavy and a trihe slow, but is strong and
aggressive. King, the other guard, is lighter,
but more active and faster player. Ven
huzen and L. w. Wharton play the tackles

A GOLF TOURNAMENT
Handicap for the Los Angeles Country
Club Event

Everything is in readiness for the golf
tournament on the new links of the Los An
geles country club this morning, and the af-
fair is expected to prove a success in all
ways. A force of men was at work yesterday
putting the links and green's into the proper
condition, and while the ground is still
slightly hard, this will be about the only
drawback. The men will start promptly at
a m., with their handicap play, and the
ladies will start their handicap as soon as
the gentlemen have finished. The men will
play two rounds and the ladies one.
The green's committee has had to exercise
great discretion and judgment in awarding
the handicaps, and the following is the re-
suit of their confab:
Scratch-W. Cosby, f. B. Tufts, j. f.
Sartori and e. Conde Jones.
Four strokes-Hugh Vail, j. E. Cook, Will
Tufts, F. M. Fish, A. w. Bumiller and Hugh
May.
Six strokes-A. II. Braly r. H. H. Chap
man, E. d. Silent, w. w. Lovett, M. S. Sew.
erance and j. H. Nicoll.
Eight strokes-H. p Anderson, A. G.
Balch, J. d. Foster, Charles Monroe, p. Ii.
Lyon, +. p Rust, DR.. w. +. Macarthur.
The herald., 1898-11-24

Ten strokes-W. II. Holiday, J. w. A.
Orr, DR.. Granville MacGowan.
Twelve strokes-W. A. Barker, NJ. L.
Graf, F. b. Henderson, II. II. Henderson,
G. ii. Henderson, w. G.. Nevin, w. S.
Porter, j. w. Ruthven, George j. Denis.
f. NJ. Lyons, DR.. +. X. Smith, G.. d. Won
Neumeyer, X. A. Rowan, S. P. Hunt and
II. NJ Corlett.
The limit of the handicap for the play of
eighteen holes has been placed at twelve
strokes, and this class will probably be large
ly reinforced this morning. The names given
are those who have already announced to the
committee their intention of competing.
Any others who enter the tournmanet will
receive the limit handicap of twelve strokes,
which like the other handicaps, is to be sub.
tracted from the gross score of the player
and placed in competition with the gross
scora of the scratch men, who have all their
strokes counted against them.
The ladies are to play but nine holes,
so their limit of the handicnps in their event
has been cut to six, half of that of the men.
Mrs J. D. Foster, Mrs. f. D. Silent, Mrs.
W. S. Porter, Mrs. p. G. Severance and Mrs
A. II. Braly will play from scratch Misses
Fairchild, Mrs. w. II. Holiday, Mrs j. f.
Sartor, Mrs. Charles Monroe, Miss f. Silent,
Mrs. Z. b. Tufts, Hiss Gertrude McCrea,
Miss Bertha Crouch and Mrs. George Denis
will receive handicaps of six strokes each.
Any other ladies who enter the tournament
will be given the limit also.
1t is expected that the play in the morn
ing will occupy several hours, and in the
afternoon, at l o'clock, after lunch, the final
round will be played off, to decide the win
ners of the tournament.
In addition to the regular events there will
be driving contests in the afternoon for
ladies and gentlemen. The drive will be
from No. tee to No. green, over trouble"
link, which includes the hard bunker. Hugh
Vail has presented a decorated stein for
special event, which has not been named.
Gold golf pins will be presented to the handi-
cap players making the best net and gross
scores, and in the driving contest a driver
will be presented to both winners. +. B.
Tufts has donated driver, to be awarded
to the gentleman making the home hole in
the least number of strokes in both rounds
of the handicap play. The new clubhouse
has, unfortunately, not been completed, but
it will be inspected by the visitors.
The Highland Golf club will, give a. tour
today on it's grounds at Highland
park. A large attendance is expected.
