And speaking of women and their
charm, brings up the subject of Mr..
]. B. Mercheson, representative of the
whip trust, known on the good ship
Cretic as Omaha"
People from the ship whom we met
in Lucerne, said that they had seen
Omaha" in The Hague, beauing fad
ed little woman in her late thirties or
early forties, about the town. She
seemed to be an artist, the ships peo-
pie thought, and they judged she was
an American.
But she seemed to have lost all
touch with America. Omaha" they
said was immensely proud of her, and
introduced her about right and left;
and tried to get her to join Americans
wherever she could.
So one day Omaha" struck the Pal
ace hotel at Lucerne with loud re-
port, and though we did not see him
for several days after his arrival, we
heard of him and we knew that inevi-
tably we should meet, for he was ev-
erywhere.
1t was at the band concert in the
Kursal tea garden that we saw him.
He carried an Alpenstock and wore
knickerbockers and a pea-jacket with
a bunch of eidelwiess in his hat. He
was ruddy and boisterous and seemed
In good spirits. The band was play
ing and he did not speak after the first
greeting until the music had ceased.
When we asked him how he liked
Switzerland, Great country-clean-
est place on EARTH" he replied.
Great people-great common peo-
ple-just folks Why they should ever
emigrate beats me. They have the
world by the tail here, with a down
hill pull. Country overrun with tour
lists in the summer keen to part with
money And no one to bother them
in the winter time. But what | like
about them is that they have no Art.
L msour on Art"
Omaha" grinned as he pulled up
a chair on the pebbles. and went on:
THE only art the SWISS people nave
is the art of living. They know how
to get the most out of life for the mon
ey. And that, after all, is the real
thing They carve some wood; but
they do it at home; it is a part of their
life. They carve in the wood the
things that they live with-their bears
and dogs and heroes and birds and
common animals.
And they do their work at home.
They don't make Art a thing apart
from life. That's what I'm trying to
get at Art and life are one with the
Swiss, as I guess they were with the
Greeks. 1t isn't much art with the
and it was pretty bum life with the
Greeks, but the average is the same.
And I'm with the Swiss"
The band began playing again and

a game of Rugby, Saturday December

that Poly chooses. The local boys feel
justified in asking for a game, as they
have won as many games as Poly and

Following are the contents of the

be played between the two schools TO
decide the southern state champion

Whereas, Los Angeles Polytechnic

in Los Angeles, partly for his

$4,000. O'Leary also will take on any
losal aspirant who may think that he
can hike for 5OO-mile walk with Il
side bet of $500. One dollar per mile
and you may name the distance If you
care to accept the gauntlet.
O'Leary is &C years old, but still
thinks he can show up some of the
Los Angeles walkers. If no one will
accept his $500 challenge O'Leary prob
ably will walk for a new hat or a box
of stogies. Yes, O'Leary smokes and

During the Tournament of Roses.
Rheinschild Will Coach Saints
Next Season

That local football fans win have an
other opportunity TO see the clever st.
Vincent eleven in action again this sea-
son is now a certainty, as Coach
Rheinschild received word from ath-
lettc authorities at the University Of
Denver last evening which stated that
they agreed to come for a specified
amount. This amount is satisfactory
to Rheinschild. who will Immediately
take up the staging of the event with
the managers of the Pasadena Tourna-
ment of Roses.
From the tone of the coach's remarks
when asked whether or not he would
accept the recent offer made by the
University of Southern California law
school for his services during the sea-
son of 1910 it may be gathered that
the exponent of Yosts formations will
again dispense his football knowledge
at the Catholic institution. "Rheine"
said: "Of course there would be more
money in the law school proposition,
but I expect I'll be back at my old
berth with the Saints" His father,
speaking OF the change. was more em-
phatic than the son, remarking: "Om
family is not of the changing sort, and

the barrister camp without some big
inducement."

Promoting Contest

BY challenging the Occidental base
ball team of Salt Lake to a nine-in-
ming batfest of the national sport the
Japanese baseball team of Los An
geles has begun an argument which
bids fair to assume an international
aspect, at least locally. The Japs have
witnessed nearly every game which the
fast colored team has played and Cap
tain Morii feels certain that his team
will have little difficulty in bringing
Blacks dusky champions into camp.
The little brown men who have ta-
ken to the national game have Sc
cured an all-star team for the con-
test, which will probably be played at
the Chutes grounds Sunday, Decem-
Der 19. Those who have watched their
practice are unanimous in declaring
that they are the best Of intielders,
although a trifle weak with the stick.
Kitsuse, who will do the twirling for
the Occidental challengers, is probably
the best Japanese pitcher on the coast.
Saisho, who will operate on the re-
ceiving end of the battery, formerly
played with the Nebraska Indians and
will be tried out next season by a
class "B" league of the middle west.
Saisho has a sure peg to the second
station, but three men having stolen
bases on him during the last six games
played.
This will be the first opportunity
that Los Angeles fans have had to see
really flrst-class Japanese team in
action and in choosing the Occlden-
tails as their opponents they have
tackled one of the fastest semi-profes-
sional mines in the south. Although
Manager Black of the Occidentals has
not as yet formally accepted the chal-
lenge 1t is more than likely that he will
do so within the immediate future.
Promoter Jesse Ordendorff, the erst-
while Los Angeles catcher, will as
sumo the management of what prom
ises to be one of the most interesting
and fastest games ever played on the
coast.
The Japs' lineup will be as follows:
Kitsuse pitcher, Saisho catcher, Toye
first base Morii second base, Motohashi
third base, Makuda shortstop, Sami
left field, Mazda center field, Yama
right field.

Merchants Wish to Run Racing

NEW ORLEANS. Dec. S.-Local
stockholders of the New orleans Jockey
club, owners of the city Park racing
plant, met yesterday, but only routine
husiness was transacted. Incidentally
Corrigan's bankruptcy was informally
discussed. as he was heavy stock
holder. The associations quandary is
what they will do with the people into
whose hands the stock falls. Local
business men want racing, but want to
run it themselves. They are worried
as to how Corrigan's large block of
stock will be disposed of. 1t was an
nounced the association would hold lts
annual meeting in March or shortly
before the legislature convenes.
A movement has been started by local
and interests from Louisville
TO take over the holdings of Louis celia
in the Crescent City Jockey club. The
syndicate is to be headed by 2. \.
Kenaud, former stockholder Of the
Fairgrounds track.
