ing of the Interstate Coursing Club, to be
hei6 81 Petaluma next Tuesday, Wednes-
Day and Thursday. took place last night
~ Pythian Castle. Eighty-eight grey
hounds are entered. the largest number
ever entered for an open plains event
since the inception Of the event eleven
years ago
ft was thought before the drawing CON-
nenced that the number Of dogs entered
would not exceed sixty-four. When IL
was announced that eighty-eight dogs
had been entered the coursing men dis
played great glee. and as the names OF
the dogs entered were read the large
crowo present could hardly restrain Its
enthusiasm. Never in the history of open
plains meetings has such an entry been
every case in the champion class. Another
feature which treasures the men wno
own the dogs Of a successful event Is
the rain that fell yesterday. 1t viii soften
the ground for the dogs and make the
running safer.
The prizes are: To the winner, 500;

SUPREME COURT SEALS
FATE OF THE CODES
Petition for Rehearing Prepared by
Code Commissioners and Inter-
ested LAWYERS Denied.

The Supreme Court put an end to all
dispute as to the legality Of the revised
codes yesterday by denying petition for
rehearing OF the case presented by the
Code Commission and numerous lawyers
throughout the State.
When the decision was hrst rendere1
condemnation seized the trainers OF the
new laws and many outsiders VINO ha1
managed in some way or another TO get
measures passed which were OF congid-
erabie personal benefit. AS much legel
talent az could be obtained was imme-
diately summoned TO prepare arguments
and cite authorities enough 10 influence
the Supreme Court to allow another hear
ing Of the matter.
But pleadlngs were in vain The court
did not even take the trouble to hand
down a reason for its action. The fate OF
the codes. which cost the State something
ike 10000 in salaries and consumed sew
en years OF time in preparation, was
sealed with the brief but portentous
statement writ denied"
The legal lights have now thrown the
SIS volumes out of their windows. and un-
happy publishers who had lot of the
costly books stored up for sale are saying
things about the Code Commissioners.

Ously. Once they were near enough TO
Harvard s goal to try goal from place

Pennsylvania efforts TO advance the
bail were really distressing. No better
proof OF this is needed than the fact that
during the first half the red and blue only
gained four first downs while Harvard
gained twenty-seven. Only once during
delphia eleven show anything like real
foot ball and this was in the first five min
utes Of play. During this time the ball
was continuously in Harvard's territory,
but this was due not so much to Penn
sylvania's strength as TO Harvard's fum-
bling. The visitors were visibly affected

Strangelyenough. Captain Campbell was

test Several times, during the first few
minutes OF play he was offside, and one
of MS offenses would have cost a touch

both teams were about equal but Penn
sylvsnia was peralized three times 20 Har-
wards once for Offside. The chief offender
in this respect for Pennsylvania was
Mitchell. who took Piekarskis place. Time
and again he would plunge into the line
before the Harvard man had started and
the net result Of his overanxiety was a
gain of forty yards for Harvard. His
CTenses finally became unbeara bic and he
was taken out Of the game.

the posing Of Miss Pierce's class was the
best ever seen here. The entertainment
was interiered with by pleasant sur.

with handsome case of spoons and
a handsome pair of gold cuff buttons.
Then the children pel!ed him with
flowers and girl gave him pretty
