Doctors Say Victim of Shooting Will Prob
ably Recover

Paul Gilbert Thebaud Jr.. who was shot early
Sunday morning in his fathers home. TIilair. at
White Plains was reported yesterday TO be
resting easily. His condition much i'm
proved, although the doctors said ne was not n
trely out Of danger. Coroner Squires said the
boys skull fractured. but that he had more
than an even chance OF recovery.
The body Of John Bjorlin, the family butler
who fired the shot which almost proved fatal 10
young Thebaud and then killed himself. is still
in the undertaking establishment at White
Plains. II was learned yesterday that Paul
knew Bjorlin was insane for a month but did
not tell his father. as he feared he would dis
charge the butler and that the latter would re-
venge himself on the household. Bjorlin
hard drlnlker. and his fear of dismissal caused
him to try drown his grief I'm liquor. The
Thebauds believe it is said. that BjOrlin not only
intended to kill Paul. but themselves well.
Among the effects which the butler left was
a memorandum showing that not long ago he
owned shares OF stock with a total par
value OF s13,500 No trace Of the stock can be
found. Among the addresses found in his trunk
was that Of Herman Steinberry. of No. PA Third
avenue. Manhattan. Steinberry told Coroner
Squires yesterday that he knew Bjorlln and had
recently loaned him SO. He did not know
whether the butler had any relatives in this
country, but said that his family in Stockholm
was comfortably situated financially.
Coroner Squires said the inquest would not
be held until young Thebaud was able to make
a statement. He is conscious now. but unable

Coney Island Jockey Club 4dds
More Money to FirtUreS.

The Coney Island Jockey Club, with its usual
llberality. has increased the value Of seventeen
stakes for next year for total of more than
$4,000 The Suburban Handicap has been in
creased from 500 900 10 $4,000 guaranteed, while
a number of other fixtures have been increased
81 600 or more in added money. The Flatbush
Stakes one of the most coveted two-year-od
fixtures of the fail season. has been changed
from a guaranteed purse of $4,000 to $4,000
added. which means that II will be worth about
$4,000.
The Brooklyn Jockey Club has also increased
the value of the Brooklyn Handicap from $4,000
TO $4,000. In all probability the Westchester
Racing Association and the Brighton Beach
Racing Association VIII follow this lead, so that
horsemen will have richer prizes TO race
for next year than ever before.

Princeton y. j. Nov. ll.-Val Flood the
Princeton trainer is taking no chances with his
charges this fall, and to-day all the men who
played in the Amherst game had a rest from the
daily routine of football practice. Instead the
regulars played lawn tennis or went on long
tramps in the surrounding country. There is
some apprehension felt among the coaches that
the team reached its top form I'm the Carlisle
Indian game, just last year the eleven played
its best in the Dartmouth game. Whether
not this is the case. the coaches are taking
every prccaution TO guard against it. They ox-
pressed themselves far from satisfied with
the work Of the backs last Saturday. although
the line showed Improvement
The substitutes and scrub took advantage Of
the absence of the regulars this afternoon and
held n hard scrimmage behind closed gates. TWO
twenty-minute halves were played The few re-
naming practices this week viii be secret ex-
coptng on Wednesday afternoon. when the
gates will be open part of the time in order
that the undergraduates may sec the scrub play
ers win their " in the last scrimmage of the
year.
As the Tigers were not forced in either the
Carlisle or Amherst games to use any new plays
it is expected that the result of numerous secret
practices will crop out in the Yale game
In speaking Of the Amherst game. THE Daily
Princetonian" says:
The game clearly showed that while the de-
fence OF the university team has been greatly
improved during the last two weeks the offence
which has been the most encouraging feature Of
the previous games has improved but little
Twice the Princeton team was within ten yards
of Amhersts goal line, but was unable to gain
the required distance and lost the ball on downs
This may in some measure be accounted for
however, by the absence of Captain Mccormick
who was kept out OF the entire game
"On the other hand, the defensive work OF
the Princeton team was excellent. as Amherst
gained only first down during the entire
game. one of the most encouraging features
Of the contest the excellent way in which
tbs ends and backs analyzed the plays OF their
opponents. The men followed the ball closely
and nearly every attempt made by Amherst at
forward pass trick play resulted in the runner
being thrown for a loss"

Woody Would Use Wood.

Beware of wood probably would have
been the warning of a palm reader had she
read correctly the lines in the hand OF
John Woody, colored, a couple of weeks
ago. AS the result of wood of different
kinds Woody will be a guest of Warden
Harris at the jail for three months. He
was charged with assaulting Patrick Pur-
cell December 81, in the Police Court today.
Mr.. Purcell testified that Woody entered
the bar room where Purcell is employed
and asked for a drink, probably drawn
from the wood The demand was refused
and that rubbed Woody's temper the wrong
way Mr.. Purcell tried to put Woody out,
but the latter armed himself with stick
of wood and beat Purcell over the head
