Stringent License Law.

The new license law, copy of which
has just been received by County Clerk
Chas. A. Johnson, is found by county o fiji
Gals to be even more stringent than was
anticipated. For retail liquor or beer
license the applicant must file his petition
with the county clerk at least thirty days
before the session OF the court at which
the same may be- heard, and shall at the
same time pay said clerk ten dollars for
expenses connected Herewith. The
County Court meets on Monday, June 7,
and applications must be filed not later
than the first Monday in May. As to the
license fee of one thousand dollars, the
law requires that "the amount of such tax
shall be deposited with the sheriff and a
certificate showing such deposit shall be
filed with the clerk of the county court at
the time the application is filed" and mo
such application shall be considered by
the county court unless accompanied by
such certificate of deposit. spirit.

| i'll. She seemed worse yesterday evening
and a physician was sent for. During

Deal Gently.

bCdi
AT a recent meeting of the town council
the Norfolk & Western Railway asked for
permission to connect its present switch
at the depot with the switch at Lemen'S
elevator, and the request was referred to
a committee, which will report at the next
meeting of the council. We hope that
the committee and the council may show
spirit Of generosity and accommodation
that may prove agreeable to the railroad
people and at the same time protect the
interests OF the town. II is said that the
railroad officials feel bit sore at the re-
fuSal of the late council to grant certain
privileges that were asked, and it is fur
ther stated that if there is a spirit of an
togoniSm on the part of our town author
tiles we are in danger Of losing our prom
iSed new station, or, at least, the company
will not erect the handsome and conven-
lent structure that has been planned. The
people of our community are, we believe,
very anxious to have that fine, new sta
ton, and we are sure that they will en-
dorse such action on the part of our coun-
Gil as will bring about more friendly
feeling between the town and the railroad
company. Let us give and take in this
matter.

NATIONAL W0MENS GOLF
TO BEGIN IN OCTOBER
Present Title Holder, Miss Kate Har-

Honor in Open Play

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. 25.-Pro-
grams have made their appearance for
the womens national golf champion
ship tournament, to be held over the
links of the Merton Cricket club, near
Philadelphia, October A to 8. This af-
fair is open to all woman amateur
golfers who are members of clubs be-
longing to the United States Golf as

the coming tournament will have sew
eral prominent entries from the other

COAST RIFLE SHOOT
TAKES PLACE TODAY
Los Angeles Rifle and Revolver Club
and Southern California Rifles
Are Local Repre-
sentatiVes

The largest civilian rife club match
ever shot on the Pacific coast will be
held today when teams representing
the best clubs of the state of Wash
ington shoot against the team of the
Los Angeles Rifle and Revolver club,
and probably of the Southern Calitor-
mia Rifles ALSO
Seattle Rifle and Revolver assOcia-
tion, the Tacoma Rifle and Revolver
club, the Spokane Rifle and Revolver
club and the North Yakima Rifle and
Revolver club will represent Washing
ton, while the Los Angeles Rife and
Revolver club and the Southern Cali
fornia Rifles are practically the only
civilian rifle clubs shooting in Cali
for1ia.
Although the Southern California
Rifles have not entered a shoot since
last spring, they have been practicing
hard for this match. The Los Angeles
Rifle and Revolver club team has shot
three matches with the northern
teams, losing to Seattle in the first
match, but winning from Spokane and
Tacoma. The local men duplicated
their victory over Tacoma and two
weeks ago defeated the cracks of the
North Yakima Rifle and Revolver
club. The Seattle club includes the
finest shots on the northern coast, Hat
ton and Bruno being especially strong
ton state rifle team in 1906 at Sea Girt
and in 1907 at Camp Perry.
The conditions are rather unique, but
entirely satisfactory TO the Los An
geles Rifle and Revolver club. They
call for ten shots per man at 200, 300
and 500 yards, any number allowed to
compete, and the six high men to COM
pose the club team. This is done to
allow some of the northern clubs to
hold their shoots for the National Rifle
association members medal on the
same day as the team shoot, thus Civ
ing every member q chance both for
the medal and for the club team.
The local club defeated North
Yakima under these conditions on Sep
tember 12, rolling up 26 points to the
good, and for their ten shots at each
range scoring 747, higher than ever be-
fore. Decius, one of the club men to
shoot on the California state rifle team,
has returned and will shoot for a place
on the team Sunday. Others who will
make a strong fight for place among
the first six are Umsted, Crossman,
Hanson, z. D. Nichols, c. F. Nichols,
Miles, Felsenthal Andrews, York,
Richman, Edwards, Stone and Lock
wood. Lieut.. Bathey, who shot on the
team against North Yakima, is almost
certain Of place if he puts in an ap-
pearance.
The clubs participating in this match
are those which will make up the Pa
ciflc Coast Rifle and Revolver Club
league, now being organized for next
years shooting and for the indoor work
during the winter This league will
bring the clubs closer together. ar
range a series of matches, prevent the
misunderstanding as to date and con-
ditions which were common this fall,
and generally stimulate interest in the
game. The plans are to eject three
men to act as an executive committee,
who, with a president and secretary,
will form schedule and manage the
leagues affaipe Only rifle and revol-
yer clubs are eligible for membership.

RUGBY OUTLOOK IS
GOOD AT POLY HIGH
Many of Last Seasons Stars to Play
on Present Lineup - Practice
Game May Be Played
Saturday

With the fifteen rapidly rounding
into shape by constant practice, the
Polytechnic high school Rugby aspi-
rants are nearly ready for a strenuous
season. OF the forty men trying for
the team, about twenty are players
who were on the field trying for the
squad a year ago and three -fourths
of last years championship fifteen is
out for daily practice.
Since the first call for practice, near
1y two weeks ago, every player mas
responded, which shows that the posi-
tions on the team are not to be won
without a struggle. Several of last
years stars who were not expected
back this season reported for practice
Thursday.
The biggest loss that the team will
feel will be that of Curly" Olmstead,
who was a whirlwind on last years
team. but who is now practicing with
the military team at Harvard. How
ever, one of the old standbys, Man
ming, has returned. Capt Hinrick-
son, one of the oldest players in Poly
High, is the life of the squad and, with
Coach Skinner, is doing the hard work
for the Mechanics.
Clifton Swartz, who has had years
experience on the Poly's fast fifteen,
is now practicing, and will undoubted-
ly make the team. Caldinore is
strong player and can always be de-
pended on for sure gains. Monk
Pierce and Earl Powell are also men
of much experience and give promise
of adding much speed and strength to
the lineup. Poor of Long Beach, Har-
den of Northern California, Will New
man, Myers, Miller, Warner, w.
Chamberlain, Sutton, Rapp, Fred Rey-
nolds and a number OF others are de-
veloping. at rapid rate and promise
to make this years football team the
fastest ever turned out by the Twen-
tieth Street school.
The team will be chosen during the
early part of next week and the suits
for those who are to represent the
school will be Immediately ordered.
The management hopes to arrange a
practice game for next Saturday,
which will give those interested fair
idea of the outlook.

PRINCETON PLANNING
FOR STRONG ELEVEN
Tigers viii Strengthen Defensive
Work of Varsity to Cope with
Last Half Attacks of
Yale's Line

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-With a goal
from the field counting three points
instead of four, and with a few other
changes made in the rules to clear up
points that have been doubtful and to
give merit a better chance, the foot
ball season of 1909 is now under way.
over in Princeton they expect to de-
velop a football team this year that
will be able to stand Yales battering
attack through the second half of
their annual struggle. Princeton has
a new coaching outfit, and its work
will be watched with unusual interest,
because there is good material at the
university, and the outlook for WIN
ming team is very promising.
"BilI' Roper, the energetic coach of
several years, who was able in 1907
and 1908 to put a team in the field
that outplayed Yale in the first half of
each contest, but collapsed in the sec
ond period of play, has given way to
Jim Mccormick, one of the best
plunging fullbacks in the history of
football; Phil King, '93; Howard Hen
ry, '04, and Walter Booth, '02. Nc
Cormick is in charge as field coach,
and the other old stars are at his side
most of the time to advise and get
into the scrimmage when the occasion
demands it.
Ropers last two teams We're strong
in strategy and speed, but SLOW IN
diagnosing the other fellows attack.
Tricky, lance-like thrusts through the
Yale line did well enough until Yale
saw through them and checked them.
Then Princeton made a hopeless fin
ish because she had nothing else to
fall back on. In developing a brilliant
35-minute attack it appeared as if the
coach had forgotten to perfect sturdy
35-minute defense. The machine was
wound up to go 35 minutes, and it
was a cold piece of metal when it re-
ceived it's first hard Yale knock in the
second half
Yale and Princeton will meet at New
Haven on November 13.
Yale will go to Cambridge on No
vember 20 and, try to get revenge for
the 40 trouncing she received at the
hands of Harvard last year. She is
likely to have her hands full, too, be-
cause all the indications are that Cap
tain Fish, the tall Harvard command
er, will this year lead a team that will
be as strong, if not stronger than, the
one which had all the strength of
straight attack Yale could muster last
year and in addition, "the one best
play" that brought victory.
Although these two contests will
stand in a class by themselves, the
season will have other big attractions,
and the country in general will not be
without many good games.

morning there will be a consolation

on Wednesday afternoon the side at

There will be driving, approaching and

day best-ball fouresomes. Following
the final championship round on Sat-
urday there will be mixed foursomes

Back TO His Old Love

E. V. Stevenson, the former manager
of the Locomobile agency in this city
and recently with the White people,
has accepted a position as head sales
man with the Los Angeles Motor Car
company, which is the Los Angeles
agency for the Locomobile-one of the
most powerful and popular cars built
in the United States. Steve wears the
smile that won't come off, and his
many friends are congratulating him
upon his return to his old love. If
there is a spot about the Locoombile

as how to compare 1t with that of any
automobile that is turned out in this
country, 1t will have to be shown.
