field team easily defeated the Occident-

strong in the field events and distance
runs, while the Occidental youngsters
were especially strong in the sprints.
The relay, which was the last event
on the program, brought the rooters TO
their feet, and was closely contested
during the first lap; but the lead that
Stein of Glendale gained over Rlchard-
son in the third lap was too great TO
be overcome by Trask and Bradbeer,
and the valley lads won by about ten
yards in the fast time of 1:40 40.
Bradbeer of Occidental was the bright
star of the games, taking four firsts
and one second for his team. He out

LITTLE SIUGGERS TO
BEGIN WORK AT ONCE
Picato Goes to Vernon to Train and
WoIgast Has Established Quarters
at Venice - Strenuous
Stunts Started

Frank Picato and Ad Wolgast have
established their training camps and
will get down to real work today in
preparation for their ten-round scrap
at McCarey's ten days hence. Picalo
will train at Jack Doyle's club at
Vernon, and Wolgast will do his train
ing at Venice.
Picato always has trained in private
heretofore, and this will be the first
time that he has taken the public
into his confidence enough to let the
fans watch him go through his strenu-
Gus stunts daily. Owing to his popu-
larity with the fans and his prospects
for going higher up in the lightweight
division, the fans will take much in
terest in his workouts.
Wolgast always entertains those
fans who go to his training quarters
to see him work. He is a hard worker
during the training period and has two
or three stiff brushes with his spar
ring partners every day, so he has
become a great card with the fans.
The future featherweight champion is
undertaking a big job in this scrap
and viii work more faithfully and
Systematically than in the past.

AMERICAN WINS TWO
EVENTS FOR OXFORD
RHODES SCHOLAR EXCELS IN
ATHLETICS ALSO
L. C. Hull of Michigan in Quarter Mile
Run Falls, Sprains Ankle, but
Wins Race by Three
Yards

LONDON, March 19.--The Oxford
Cambridge field sports at Queens club
today were won by the former univer-
sity, six events to four.
1t had been anticipated that G. e.
Putnam, a Rhodes scholar from Kan
sas, would win the hammer throw for
Oxford, but he had to be contented
with second place.
Watson of Cambridge beat all varsity
records with a throw Nof 14S feet 10
inches. Putnam was second with 1853
feet 10 inches, and d. c. Herring, a
Rhodes scholar from Princeton, was
third with 122 feet.
The 100-yard dash was won by l.. c.
Hull of Michigan, Rhodes scholar.
Time, 10 2-5 seconds.
L. c. Hull scored another victory for
oxford and the American Rhodes schol-
arships by winning the quarter-mile
run. His time was so 3-5 seconds.
Hull's victory in the quarter-mile was
a notable display of grit. He was work
ing through the field about 100 yards
from the start when he stumbled and
sprained his ankle. But this did not
deter him; he quickly pulled himself
together, picked up the field again and
in spite of the intense pain, went to the
front and won by three yards. He had
to be carried off the field and be at
tended by a doctor.

age the Chicago American league club
this season.
Jones is heavily interested in timber
lands on the Pacific coast and has
named $4,000 as the price of his SER

White sox IL, AnaeIs 8

Pasadena citizens shut up shop and
declared yesterday afternoon a hall
holiday so that everybody could attend
the baseball game at Tournament park
between the White Sox regulars and
the Angels, and nearly everybody who
could get inside the grounds was there,
the attendance being estimated by Hen
Berry at from 1000 to 5000 persons.
They saw q great game of ball, from
the Comiskey viewpoint, but 1t was a
bum exhibition as Witnessed through
the glasses of Berry and Dillon. The
Sox mopped up with the Angels, IL to
3, and made Happy Hogan so happy
that he just could not contain himself.
He recalled how deliriously delighted
were Berry and Dillon when these same
Sox Inundated his Cubs by II to Q
score the previous day, and he did not
lose any time in hunting up Hen and
Cap to explain to them how supremely
overjoyed he was at the news.
1t would be a shame to write a de-
tailed account of the awful slaughter,
as 1t was one of those runaway affairs
that make one side happy and the 9TH
err sour and glum. Thorsen and Koest-
ner, a pair of Three-Eye leaguers, es-
sayed to serve the curves to the Sox,
and the latter just mauled the horse
hide until the little globulets were fiat
tened by the bats before speeding away
on their long journeys. Seventeen safe
hits and dozen runs We're yielded by
these curve artists, while Walsh and
Fiene held the Angels down to no-hit
no-run until the eighth inning, when
they loosened up enough to permit the
Angels to make two hits In the eighth
and ninth, but positively refused to
allow any of them to complete the cir
cult until the ninth inning, when Berry
got angry and demanded at least three
runs, One home run, three three-bag-
gers and two two-baggers were includ-
ed in the net results of the swatting
done by the Sox. oh, 1t was awful!

CAUSES PRETTY MESS
IN GERMAN POLITICS

BERLIN, March 19.-The kaiser is being
charged with another indiscretion. and, Incl
dentally, Prince Radoln. the German ambassa-
dor in Paris, is coming in for severe criticism.
1t has arisen over the publication by the
Matin of the kaiser's recent telegram to Prince
Radolin congratuating the prince on his sue
cessful efforts to bring about an understanding
with France in Morocco. At the same time the
Matin published a brief comment which was
alleged to have been dictated by the German
ambassador.
The telegram was utilized by the Matin and
other French journals to prove that the kaiser
always had friendly inclinations toward France
but that he had been thwarted by Prince Bue-
low. This has given rise to angry protests on
the part Of many German newspapers which
support Buelow. 1t is stated that the kaiser
sent this telegram to Radolin without consult
ing the imperial chancellor, SO that his action
in this amounted to revival of those abb
solutst conditions which existed before the
crisis of last November. 1t is also complained
that the kaiser attributed the credit for the
Franco-German agreement in Morocco to RADIO
lin, whereas it was really due to Buelow.
BueIow States His Side
The imperial chancellor. speaking at the
banquet of the Agrarian league, publicly de-
clared that he and NJ. Cambon. the French am
bassador in Berlin, settled the terms of the
is generally interpreted as reply to and
criticism of the emperor's telegram, in which
Radolin is praised for concluding the agree
ment
Excited discussion has also taken place as
to how the Matin obtained possession OF the
confidential telegram, and the ambassador in
Paris is accused by Buelow's organs OF having
betrayed the imperial message to French
newspaper. Radoin himself now denies this
charge in official telegram addressed to the
German foreign office. in which he declares he
had nothing whatever to do with the publica-
ton.
The Matin, however, retorts by saying that
Radolin dictated the comments published on
ii to its reporter, and adherents of Buelow
inviting Radolin to explain whether the Mathis
assert that he had nothing whatever to do with
self.
Kaiser Is Criticised
Amid all this perplexing confusion an import
ant section of the German press severely crti-
cses the kaiser for sending such telegram
to Radolin without consulting the imperial
chancellor. The conservative Hamburger
Nachrichten declares that a telegram of this
nat ure ought to have been submitted to Buelow
IN order that he might accept responsibility for
1t prevent its dispatch The Rhenish West
phalian Gazette also criticses the emperor and
states that the personal relations between the
monarch and his chancellor are purely Off
cial, the friendly tone which existed between
the two men having entirely disappeared The
Neueste Nachrichten complains that there has
been revival of absolutism, accompanied by
all those dstatseful intrigues which char
aeteristic of the former absolute regime.

truth of statements they had been ready to be-
lieYe proofless.
Private James Smith was dragged out and
brutally illtreated by the villagers and the
fakir. The villagers wanted to make him
drink of the poisoned" water, but the falSr
was against this Throw him down the we'll
was his advice. '"rhe we'll is useless to you,
henceforth, for it is already foul with poison.
therefore drop him in it,"
Los Angeles herald., 1909-03-20
ImbrogIio One Thing Desired

Now the fakir was only too eager that the
village should be embroiled with the authori-
ties he knew that the villagers would be
much too simple and too avaricious to sacrifice
Private Smiths horse. for It would be Of usa
to them. Consequently, when search was made
for Private Smith his horse would be found in
near the village. That it in trun would al
most certainly lead eventually to the dragging
of the well and the fishing up of soldiers
body. Then there would be the devil to pay,
with the ultimate result that the village would
really become angry and disaffected with the
government. That would be so many good men
gained.
But Private James Smith was not thrown
down the we'll. He was rescued by night
patrol which happened on the village just in
the nick of time.
The upshot was, firstly, that Private Smith
was stiff and for several days; secondly,
that the village had quartered upon it force
Of punative police, to show them that soldiers
must not be bound drowned in that offhand
way; thirdly that the fakir. who turned out to
be a defaulting babu from commercial office
