UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYL-
VANIA'S ANNUAL CARNIVAL.

Philadelphia, March 27--On April
27, the University of Pennsylvania
will give its 18th annual festival. or
outdoor meet, and the preparations
now making show that it will be the
grandest ever given by the institu-
ton, and among the very largest CIV
en- in the country. over a thousand
entries will be in it. In fact. the
number has been growing so rapidly
that the management is fearful that
some means will have to be proVid-
ed for the overflow. To this end a
plan has been proposed to devote two
days to the meet, holding the contests
for school boys on Friday, and the
college. championship and special
events on Saturday. According to
the present program it is necessary
to start the first event at 1 o'clock,
and keep them continuously for five
hours in order to get through In one
afternoon. Pennsylvania will be the
favorite in the one-mile relay event.
Yale will be favorite in the two miles
and Michigan in the four miles.
The Wolverines have won this race
four years in succession, and have
come to be considered practically un-
beatable. 1t is likely that Pennsyl-
vania and Cornell will concentrate
their strength on this event and try
and wrest Michigan's honors from
her. But 1t will certainly take an
average of 4.30 to the mile 10 down

GALVESTON. ItAty.- Matst 2T.---Thc
Fort Worth gambling tragedy has
precipitated a crusade against public
gambling and gamblers In Texas. In
Galveston and many other cities and
towns throughout Texas mass meet
ings have been held to memorialize
the legislature to pass a law making 1t
a felony to gamble I'm a public resort
or conduct any gambling game; to
provide a penalty by imprisonment
in the penitentiary and to give the
peace officers power to break into ana
raid any building containing a gam
bling resort.
People Demand Action by Legislators.
Organizations were perfected In
several of the large cities, having for
their object the prosecution of re-
lentless campaign against gambling
and gamblers, and providing special
counsel for prosecuting all gambling
cases in the courts. To this end
funds aggregating over 100000 were
pledged by citizens with which to pay
for counsel and for the prosecution
of all state and municipal officers
who fail to do their duty in the sup
preston of public gambling.
Citizens Form Vigilance Committees.
In some of the small towns in south
Texas these organizations of citizens
have taken the form of vigilance COM
mittees, who will not have recourse
to law. but will drive gamblers out
OF town under penalty Of whitecap-
ping. The committees explain their
action by reference to the laxity of
enforcement of the present laws
against gambling and the fact that
out of 2,3S3 arrests from gambling
joints, only 437 convictions resulted,
and only twenty-five suffered short
Jail sentences, while the others es-
capped by paying fines, the greater
portion of which was court costs and
officers fees.
Advices are 70 the effect that seven
teen large establishments in Dallas.
El Paso and Houston had announced
their retirement from business.
