THE new DUKE
OF RICHMOND
Takes Little Interest in America
Although WidoWer HIS Is Not
Looking for Heiress.

London, Oct. 6.-The death las,
week of the aged Duke of Richmond
and the succession to the title of his
eldest son, Lord March, opens up an
other possibility for an American
heiress to enter the ranks of the
British peerage, for the new duke is
a widower. Unfortunately, however
he seems to entertain no desire tc
re-enter the matrimonial state, while
the large fortune left by the late
duke makes fortune-hunting by his
heir unnecessary. He has never
shared his fathers taste for politics
but in one respect-devotiOn to the
turf-they We'd with one another
The old dukes place at Goodwood is
known by reputation at least to all
American lovers of horse racing
For a number of years the new
duke, then Lord March, held the Of
fee of steward of the jockey club and
his reputation was such that in
stead of deriving prestige from The
Office, it was his tenure thereof that
was considered to give weight to the
decisions of the club the stewards
c. which constitute the supreme tri
bunal in connection with all racing
matters in England. Indeed, when
some years ago, he figured as a NOV.
ing spirit in jockey club inquiry
which resulted in a number of leading
jockeys and professional hackers be
ing warned off the turf not a single
word Of protest was heard, even on
the part of their friends against the
decision, so final was regarded The
verdict of Lord March.
The new duke visited America sew.
eral years ago. but so far as is
known by his intimates he does not
share the enthusiasm manifested for
the land across the water by his
younger brother, Lord Algeron Cor
dOn-LennOX, who, with his wife visits
the United States every year or two
and has many warm friends in New
York and Newport.

10 Guard President
atHerbertMemoria|
SURROUNDED BY STRONG GUARD
Four Attempts to See President Have
Been Made by Cranks
Recently.

Washington, Oct. 6.-Arrangements
have been made for an extra guard
for Roosevelt al the memorial service
in honor of Ambassador Herbert at
st. Johns church today This precau-
ton is the result of the attempt of
the crank Elliot to enter the White
House yesterday. Secret service men
say that it is almost an invariable
rule that the publication of an at
tempt to reach the president is fol-
lowed by the appearance of other
murderous cranks.
Officer Cisele was more severely
injured yesterday than first reported.
A piece of glass two inches long by
half an inch wide was taken from his
arm. 1t severed an artery and there
is chance of blood poisoning. He
will probably not be able to work for
many weeks. 1t develops that no sec.
ret service man was near Roosevelt
at church Sunday when Elliott ad-
dressed him. Had Elliott desired to
murder the president he had an ex-
cellent chance. Elliott is the fifth
crank to attempt to visit the presiden.
since his return to Washington a week
ago. Three more in addition to FL
liott were arrested. The secret SER
vice policy is to suppress all news Of
such affairs Yesterdays attack was
too violent to escape notice. Captain
Boardman. chief of detectives, today
received Elliott's record from Mime
apolis 1t says his landlady ordered
him away three weeks ago as appar-
emily demented He is the victim of
unnatural practices.

WHITMAN COLLEGE NOTES.

Football prospects for Whitman
were never brighter than now" said
Captain Brown today to the States
man man. The line which looked so
weak two weeks and even a week ago
is strengthening continually. Yester-
day Carl Helm of Pomeroy returned.
He was a fierce man in the second
team at tackle last year and the year
before. Although coming in late he
will don a uniform tonight and put
every effort toward making the var
sity. Rudd Reser and Roy Perringer
are being trained for tackles. Es-
pecial attention will be given by the
coach to their work on defense.
Back of the line Whitman has ma
terlal galore and snappy pretty spec
tacular work will characterize her
work on the offensive. All interest
now is centered on the trip to Seattle
on the 14th.
At an important meeting of the
N-NSSoIA'S SOLlHlIl0e yesterday dltSl
noon at 4 o'clock in President Pen
roses office, Edward D. Baldwin was
unanimously appointed track manager
for 1904 and G. A. Palmer manager
OF the Pioneer to succeed Paul Brat
tain, resigned.
Ihe track management is specially
important this year in view of the
great meet to be held here next May
IN which ten colleges will be repre-
sented. The meet will be one of the
largest ever held west of the Rocky
mountains.
Palmer is a member of the senior
class and is already editor in chief
OF the Pioneer. The appointment yes
terday gives him control of the busi-
ness part as well.
The committee appointed John Ly-
man of Whitman academy, curator to
keep and care for the trophies and
paraphernalia belonging to the Asso-
ciated Students.
