FACULTY AND STUDENTS
ENJOY A GOPHER HUNT
More Than Two Hundred Rodents Are
Slain on San Jose Normal
School Grounds.

SAN JOSE, Oct. 26.-The gardeners of
the State Normal School, assisted by
members of the faculty, students, small
boys and stray dogs, enjoyed gopher
hunt to-day. More than 200 of the ro-
dents were killed in a territory covering
less than two acres. Gophers have been
q nuisance on the grounds and the gar
deners have started a crusade against
them. In an alfalfa patch of about
half acre 112 were killed this forenoon
and IN the afternoons work about the
same number were found. The ground
was flooded with water and when the
animals came TO the surface in half
drowned condition they were either
killed with a club or caught by dogs.

NEW GOLF FASHION,
Latest Fad IL to Wear Gold Chain
Around Ankle.


A young woman living in New York
has astonished her friends by the new
fashion she has brought home from
abroad, says the New York Sun
Around one OF her ankles is linked a
gold chain bracelet or anklet of heavy
Tuscan gold fastened with a turquoise
amulet clasp. This is worn outside the
stocking and is plainly in evidence
when a golf skirt is worn.
1t would seem far too striking a fash
ion TO find favor with women of good
taste. but il is difficult TO tell exactly
what will strike the feminine fancy.
Already few Of her friends have or
dered similar anklets in gun metal and
silver OF less elaborate fashion than
that worn by the young woman who
brought the fad direct from Paris.
where it was introduced by a Russian
woman Of title. One Of these ankiets
being observed at Turkish bath pat
ronized by women. the attendant was
asked II the custom was general.
"A great many women" said the girl.
wear these chain bracelets. some
above the knee and others at the ankle.
l have never known of their being
worn outside the stocking. however, as
1 have been usually called to assist the
wearer to adjust the stockings over the
anklet, sometimes a difficult task TO
perform without tearing delicate ho-
sery"
All summer long women have been
wearing bracelets outside the sleeve.
and the new anklet fad seems to have
originated in the new and rather pro-
nounced fashion of exhibiting the
bracelet. These odd fashions. however.
have short life on this side of the wa
ter. although they are carried to ex-
tremes abroad, especially by the fash
ion makers of Paris
