Jockey SLOAN
WINS HIS SUIT
Obtains Judgment Against the
French Jockey Club for
Ruling Him Off the Turf
DEFENDANT PAYS COSTS
Once Premier Rider Gets No
Damages, but Decision Is a
Blow to Racing Association

PARIS, Dec. 1.-THE court which has
been hearing the arguments in the case
of Tod Sloan, the American jockey
against the French Jockey Club for
$4,000 damages, for being warned on
the turf in connection with Rose de
Maix's winning of the Prix Diane in
Chantiily in May last, to-day found in
favor of Sloan and condemned the
jockey club to pay damages. The court,
while holding that Sloan's complaint
was justified. pointed out that he had
not showed that the course of the club
caused him serious prejudice and linn
tied the damages to the expense Of the
action. The case involved the Jockey
clubs sole control of the French turf
administration.

Disease in the Nina

The prOfuse use Of water spraying in
mines has unfortunately assisted in the
introduction % a most serious disease
into collieries, viz: 'ankylostomaiasis,'
which is at present mostly confined to
Austrian, German and Hungarian
mines, but has been discovered in some
mines in Cornwall, and also in Austria
liza, where those suffering from the dis
ease are called earth eaters" The
higher the temperature and the greater
the point OF saturatio1 the more easily
is the parasite prOpagated. and there
fore it's favOrite habitat is in the damp
and badly ventilated places. The larvae
can exist in any temperature above 4S
degrees F., and have been found on the
higher parts of props and bars, but not
near the floor. Fortunately, the first
accounts are believed to have exagger-
ated the danger, and were incorrect in
stating that the infection could be car
ried through the air, but later investi-
cations seem to point out that it can
only be taken in through the mouth,
and. therefore, clean hands and clean
water when partaking Of foods, are the
principal safeguards and Min

Special Dispatch to The Call.

REDDING, Dec. Thames Henry
Coleman, the thirteen-year-old son of
J. II. Coleman, shot at and wounded a
tramp yesterday morning. The tramp
threatened Charles Coleman's life and
was chasing that boy with hatchet
when James Henry fired both barrels
Of a No. 10 shotgun into the miscreant' s
legs, stopping his headlong rush and
bloOdthirsty designs on the older broth
er. The tramp fell to the ground and
the boys held him covered with guns.
He finally crawled away and has not
been seen since.
The elder boy had gone to a brick
yard to repair a fence. AS he arrived
at cabin on the premises q large and
vigorous tramp stepped to the door
and with curses asked what he wanted.
The boy informed the intruder that he
must leave the cabin. Then the tramp
grabbed a hatchet and started for the
youngster. The boy ran toward the
brick pile where his younger brother
was seated with his shotgun across his
knees.
James Henry was equal to the oc-
casion. He jumped TO his feet and COW
ering the tramp called out to him to
stop. The tramp did not heed the
warning so James lowered his gun and
fired both barrels. The boys had taken
their guns for the purpose of hunting
ducks after they had finished the re-
pair work on the fence

Discontent With Work.

That there is much discomfort with

A Kansas Verdict

The Kansas juries have been taking
the humorous papers seriously about
mothers-in-law. In Atchison young
wife alleged extreme cruelty against
her husband because he had main
tanned her and his mother in the same
establishment. AS her complaint re-
lated: well knowing, owing to the
peculiarities, of his mother, it would
be impossible for the plaintiff to live
in the same house with her, with any
thing like peace and comfort, he in
sisted on bringing his mother to live
with them shortly after moving into
their own home, and did so over the
protest and objection of the plaintiff
that his mother at once assumed alb
solute domination, gave directions to
servants, took control Of domestic af-
fairs and commenced a series of per-
secutions of the plaintiff, with the re-
suit that on June 81 she fell danger
ously i'll from nervous prostration and
for a long time remained at deaths
DOOR" She got her verdict. It is not,
however, so bad as the verdict of an
insanity jury in Winfield: I'VE find
Mrs. B. insane. Cause, too much

Profitable Begging.

A woman was arraigned for beg
ging and vagrancy in the Essex Mar
ket Police Court in New York few
weeks ago who had among her be-
longings a heavy bundle tied in a
large colored handkerchief. in which
were found over $50 in pennies and
other small coin. the whole mass
weighing more than fifteen pounds.
This. according 10 the wOman's own
story. she had collected in two weeks,
seated on the curb at a certain cor
ner on the BOwery with a plate in her
lap. And still more interesting was
the disclosure made by a bank book
OF savings in Syracuse, y Y, in her
possession, showing an account to the
woman's credit Of over $1,000. 1t ap-
peared also that the woman had three
grown-up children living in Syracuse,
who were able to care for her. Yet
so woebegone and poverty stricken
old the woman appear when arraign-
ed in court that not until her hoard
ings were disclosed would even a pO-
lice court shyster take her case.-Les-

VICTORIA, B. c., Dec. 14.-With the
arrival of H. NJ. S. Flora a EsouimaIt
where the big cruiser was placed in
sdrydock this morning, a dramatic Incl
dent in connection with the stranding
of the cruiser came to light, an Incl
dent which does honor to the lieutenant
engineer of the cruiser.
When the Flora crashed upon the
rocks at Village Point as a result of
mistake by the navigating lieuten-
ant, who had mistaken the red spar
buoy which marks the dangerous reef
off Village Point for the three-pile bea-
con which marks Base Flats upon the
opposite side of the channel, the lieuten-
ant engineer was asleep in his room. He
was awakened with the shock which
followed the crash and, realizing the
situation upon the instant as water
poured in through the open scuttles
and headlights. he rushed out in his
night clothes. He was soon in the en-
gine-room and swung the crank which
closed the bulkheads. The iSrush of
water was thus stopped.

Bic Price for steeI Rails.

II appears that the gross business of
the steel trust was s56O.OOO. 900 last
year. There was a product OF finished
steel Of 100000 tons, and Of this

S2S a ton, this amounted to $4,000
600, and the New York Commercial is
authority for the statement that the
net profit on steel rails was $23, 900, 600.
