thereto, his self-pronounced brilliant

has yet to be fixed. but Will probably

PRINCETON, n. j, Feb. 17-Alex-
ander F. COPELAND, Princeton's new
track trainer, has long figured In the
world OF track athletes. After many
years of competition he entered upon
his first work as a trainer at some OF
tho New York private schools. He was
at Yale In 1899, the year before Mike
Murphy returned, and with John Gra-
ham accompanied the YaleHarvard
team to England. Later he was en-
gagged by Barnard school, and last year
he took the track men of the New York
Athletic club and of the Seventh Regi-
ment In charge.
His First Try Years Ago.
His first try at the athletic game was
In 1884, when he competed as a mem
ber of the old American Athletic club.
Sprints, hurdles and broad jumps be-
came a specially with him IN 1887. He
won the 100 and 220-yard champion
ships Of Canada IN Toronto. He Joined
the Manhattan Athletic club and on Its
grounds he won the 220-yard hurdle
championship Of America
Good Work Shown.
More good work came In the year fol-
lowing. In the championships at De-
troit COPELAND won both hurdle races,
but was declared to have been only sec
ond In the high hurdles. He had hard
luck In the broad jump, for after six
jumps, averaging % feet inches, he
was beaten by his team mate, Billy
Halpin. who, after fouling three times
and making two jumps, did % feet in
one hard effort Copland's best jump
was % feet 10 inches.
Wins Four Scratch Events.
A short time afterward In a meet of
the New York Athletic club. COPELAND
won four scratch events, the 100 yard
dash. the 120 and 220-yard hurdle races
and the broad jump. After losing a
100-yard dash to WeSting, one OF the
greatest sprinters OF those days, Cop
land evened up by defeating him In the
220yard dash and winning the I20-yard
hurdles,
Loses Hurdle Race.
In 1889 COPELAND undertook TO do much
for his club in the American champion
ships. He won his heat in the 100 yard
dash. and then qualified In the 120-yard
hurdles. The final of the dash was
called as soon as the hurdle race was
over and he could not go in 1t. He won
the 220-yard hurdle race, but lost the
high hurdles for the same reason that
prevented him from competing In the
100-ynrd race. In the Canadian cham
pionships the same year he beat the
American champion, John Owen. who
subsequently held the worlds record for
the 100-yard dash.
Broke Left Leg.

the third hurdle and broke his left leg

A marked tribute was paid to
General Wheeler in Congress on
the day of his interment at Airing
ton. A bill was under considera-
ton to change the name of a street
in the District of Columbia. Mr..
Sherman, of New York, presented
amendment to call it Wheeler
street. He explained that it was
the universal custom of the House
to take no action as to the death of
an ex-member, but that the record
of General Wheeler entitled him to
recognition. "For more than a
decade" he said, General Wheel
err served in this House with un-
parallel industry and very great
ability. In the prime of his Wig
orous manhood he fought with
bravery and brilliancy for a cause
he believed to be right. With the
shadow of evening over his life he
battled for our flag, with the zeal
aud energy which belied his years.
The motion of Mr.. Sherman was

Governor Blanchard espresso

Governor Blanchard expresses
himself as we'll pleased with the
Assessors Convention and its
work. He believes great good will
result. He says the Convention
was body Of earnest, thoughtful
men, animated with a purpose to
measure up, in their work of assess
ing property, to the duties as pre-
scribed by the law. He believes
the increase of assessments in the
State for 1906 will be sufficient,
added to the $45, 100000 increase
for 1905, to justify the Legislature,
at Disappointing session, in re-
ducing the rate of State, parish,
municipal and levee district taxa
ton. Unless there be an increase
in 1906 about like that for 1905 the
benefit of'the increase for 1905 will
be lost to the. people, fort the Legisla-
ture will not be able to predicate
a reduction of taxes on an increase
of assessment as small as that of
1905.
"What | would have liked"
said the Governor, "was to have
been able, the assessors and |, to
have at once increased the aggre-
gate Of assessments in the State to
$500, 900, 900, double the present
aggregate, and then at once to have
cut the State tax to 3 mills, and the
parish, municipal and district tax
to rot exceeding 5 mills each.
"This would increase no mans
tax penny, and would be placing
Louisiana in the true light and do
more to attract capital and i'm
migration than any thing else. But
we had not ourselves the power to
accomplish SO great reform. 1t
must be worked ont gradually with
the aid Of the people and the Gen
eraf Assembly. | sincerely trnst
the good sense Of the people, seeing
how desirable it is from every view
point of the States interest to IN
crease assessment and reduce the
rate Of taxation in Louisiana, will,
by healthy public sentiment, en-
courage and assists the assessors in
carrying out the recommendations
OF the recent Convention. Pic.
