Racing a Week
At Emeryville
No Sport on Tuesday, and VIII
Eian1s Raises Admission
10 81 for Men

There viii only be five days racing a
week during the season which opens at
Emervvilie. November 90. The admis-
sion fee for men will be 81, while that
Sor- women remains at 81.
These innovations were announced
yesterday by President Thomas H. Will

hanging She details in connection with
the coming meeting. There were ru-
snors foy some time that It was planned
&c raise the price of admission, but the
decision 90 eliminate one day a week
was somewhat unexpected. Tuesday is
The. day C3 which no racing VIII be
held.
President Williams made no official
statement in connection with the new
arrangements. but the advance in the
admission price is due TO q desire TO
offset the loss OF revenue formerly de-
rived from book makers. The restric-
fions placed on betting by legislation
may also affect the gate receipts, unless
some satisfactory system of speculation
- established.
Il is deemed good policy not to race
-rore than I'VE days a week When the
announcement was made there were
snouiEes as TO why Monday was not
selected instead OF Tuesday. IT appears
that in the past the attendance on Mon
DAYS was better than on some of the
ether days OF the week.
Turfmen are arriving daily from va
sfous points 10 be in attendance for
the opening Of the season, and Secre-
t6fy Treat continues to receive appli-
cations for stalls. One of the latest
70 apply is William st. Vincent. who
asks. for accommodations for seven
horses. He has been racing at Van
COuver.

RECEIVERS $1,000 FROM
THE UNITED RAILROADS

Mary McLennan. an elderly woman,
was awarded damages for personal in
juries in the sum of $4,000 against the
United Railroads by jury in Judge
Hunts court yesterday. While trans
ferring from one car to another at
Sixteenth and Bryant streets she was
thrown to the street.. sustaining Sc
rious injuries of the spine. 1t was
shown that the gate of the car from
which she stepped was opened on the
wrong side. The railroad tried to es
cape responsibility by making the
argument that workingmen in the
Potrero returning to their homes in the
evenings forcibly threw open the gates
in order to expeditiously catch the
Bryant street cars.

st. Mary's.
Ever since their decisive victory over
the University OF the Pacific there has
been an air of confidence in the ability
Of their Rugby team at the University
OF Nevada, and this confidence. by later
events. has been thoroughly warranted.
The Nevada team arrived in the city
yesterday with a bearing that does not
augur well for the outcome of the game
as far as California is concerned. Ever
since the start Of the present season
the one main object in view has been
TO prepare to beat Berkeley or bust,
and that is what the Sagebrushers are
going 10 do their level best for today.
The team will have a large number OF
supporters at the game. Fully 90 came
down with the team, and special train
bearing over 100 more left Reno last
night and Is due here early this morn
ing. These numbers, together with the
Nevada alumni residents in this city.
insure a large delegation of Nevada
supporters. The game will probably
be the best one that the California men
have been seen in this season and the
Neyada- team is looked for, by all the
local teams that have journeyed to
Reno and met defeat at its hands, to
give the blue and gold big surprise.
The team is very likely looking set
of athletes. They are strong. active
lot and in the pink of condition.
They have been well coached for the
event by Coach Mayors, a former Stan
ford man. The team indulged in light
practice yesterday afternoon and ere
ated a very favorable impression
among those who saw the boys in
action.
The rain yesterday made the ground
very soggy and heavy and under these
conditions the play will probably be
mostly confined 10 the forwards.
Coach Schaeffer of the California
team is not taking any chances on the
outcome of the game and is putting
in his strongest fifteen. The team
realizes that IL will be called upon to
fight a much stronger bunch than any
of those met in the local preliminary
games.
Nevada as a defensive team is not a
we'll known quantity here, as in all its
games IL has been on the attack prac-
tically every time it played. Califor-
MIA will, without doubt, try its de-
fense to the limit and likewise the
Nevada men can be expected to con-
siderably bother the blue and gold.
