for damages, expresses much disgust
over the fact that an inferior metro
2olitan hosiery sheltered for night
his august presence.
Eddie HanIon Winning on the Ponies
Eddie Hanon is going it pretty heavy
at Emeryville and is away to the good
on the game. Though his star has per-
maps set the Frisco boy is not losing
the popularity which attended him in
the heyday Of his ring career.
A New "rish Champion"
Charley Mitchell, more or less known
to puglistic fame, is the latest one to
tout another Irish champion" He is
keeping secret the name of his new
find, however but says that the new
Richmond will beat Mccoy or O'Brien
as side issue and then sit down and
wait for something worth while TO
make itself known.
Amateurs Will Struggle
Although track and basketball are
occupying a major portion of collegiate
attention in Southern Calofirnia, the
baseball material is not being sighted
and when the opening of the season
arrives very little time will be needed
to round the diamond men into their
best trim. Pomona, Occidental and u.
S, C. claim that they will give the st.
Vincent champions the hardest fight
which they have experienced in their
long career of victory. For six years
the Grand avenue men nave lost but
two games with southern teams, though
last season they were driven to a des-
perate defense by Occidental college
The Vincentians claim to have splen-
did material and expect to win again
despite the preparations which are be-
ing made to wrest their laurels.

HARRISBURG, Jan. 2S.--Mrs. d.
w. Burkholder has been publisher of
the Weekly Tribune at Newburg for
three years. In this weeks number
she makes the following editorial an
nouncement
"Three years ago November q the
Tribune, under the late management,
appeared In that number we stated
that we believed the most progressive
citizens of the town and neighborhood
would stand by home work. and in this
we have not been disappointed.
I'VE have succeeded beyond our eX-
pectatlons, but three years work rum
ming paper and a house without any
vacation or change has made me very
tired and now Mr.. Burkholder has
settled the matter by saying L must
no longer have this extra care and
work, and as L promised to obey him,
this then, is the last copy of the
Weekly Tribune that will ever be pub
lished in Newburg.
I'VE made mistakes? Certainly we

YaIe's Financial Income

Walter Camp, the athletic impressario
of Yale university, in his recent report
to the Eli authorities gave out the good
news that a surplus fund of 100000 is
at the disposal of the athletic COM
mittees. The sum has been saved over
and above the expenses of the past ten
years from athletic income This aver
ages $4,000 year, most of which has
been derived from the gate receipts at
tendant upon football games. The ques-
ton is how this comfortable fortune
shall be spent. Persons skeptical as to
the future Of the gridiron sport are ad-
vising the Yale people to be careful
how they use it, for the good old days
of football may soon be a thing of the
past and in that event subscriptions
to athletic funds will take the place of
easy gate money.
