The Mile Run Was Needed

ter. The Climate Weak
ened Visitors.

London, July 1.-THE Queens club
was the scene today Of the most eX-
citing contest in its long history,
when oxford and Cambridge defeated
Harvard and Yale, in the fifth meet
ing of the oSlest universities Of two
nations
The climax was dramatic i'm the
extreme Each nation won two
meetings, and each had to its credit
four Of today's events. The victory
depended upon the last event, the
one-mile run. Until the final event
there was no demonstration, and
moderate applause only. for the win
ners. But when the six young ath-
letes toed the mark for the crucial
test, silence fell over the scene, fol-
lowed by a wild demonstration, when
Baker Of Kings college, Cambridge,
running a clever race, sprinted in

oxford, who was second, with Law

illustrious in the annals Of the light

King" II was such an uproar as
might have been witnessed at some
American meeting.
The two sides were remarkably
evenly matched. though the Ameri-
cans practically had walkovcrs in the
jumps and hurdles. The hammer
throw was conceded to an oxford
Rhodes scholar. Putnam of Kansas,
but the Americans counted upon a
fair proportion of the runs
That the Englishmen took four out
of five of these, including the mile
and two miles, confirmed fears that
the climate might weaken the staying
powers Of the Americans.
The latter, as usual. appeared
more highly strung and more nerv-
ous than their rivals. The records.
as a whole, are only average for an
international meet.
No unpleasant incidents mHrred the
meeting, and all conceded the Ameri-
cans TO be good sportsmen. College
cries by groups of Americans and
college songs, notably Hail Califor-
MIA" by the University OF California
Glce club. enlivcncd the occasion.
Speaking of the results tonight.
Richard G. Floyd. the Harvard man

cans, said: The English distance
runners defeated us This goes, To
show, as il has so often done, that it
is hard for distance runners To come

not offer any excuses"

Washington, d. C. July
IL. ciaD-After a
three weeks holdup of the
statehood resolution, after
it had been ordered report
ed by the committee on ter
ritoI'ics of the senate, chair
man Smith Of that commit
tee made a report to the
senate today with a recon-
mendation Of its passage.
Mr.. Smith stated that
while he personally favored
the admission of the terri
tories and was willing to do
what he could to bring
them into the union, he
deemed it eXpedient to
amend the Flood reSOlu-
ton, and he gave notice
that at an early date he
would offer an amendment
cutting out the recall OF
Judiciary i'll the Arizona
constitution.
He closed bv saving that
he was going to ask for
unanimous consent for an
agreement to vote on the
resolution at an early date.
Senator Nelson stated in
presenting the minority re-
port Of the committee that
he favored the admission of
New Mexico with the con-
stitutiOn it had adopted,
but he was utterly opposed
to the Arizona constitution
for two reasons, first the
recall of Judiciary, and sec
ond, the fact that fifteen
per cent Of the voters could
set in operation the initi-
ate and referendum.
In an interview Mr..
Smith said the president
was in a very belligerent
mood regarding Arizona re-
call and that if territories
were to get statehood at
this sssion, he believed it
would have to be cut out,
otherwise it would certain
lv be vetoed.

was true, he said. that the two were
too near together; so near that a
person was liable to be electrOcuted in
trying to use the escapes during a
possible fire; but he could not see
ttat il was exactly his fault, nor that
ne should be the one to make the dis
tdnce between them greater. The
electric company could easily move
their wires but to move his fire
escapes would cost him at least 800.
Worse than that, il was practically
Impossible to move them; if they were
pat on the rear of the building they
would have to be on the property
OF some one else; they could not be
put on the front, because there was

When Fire Chief Sullivan did ap-
pear, general conversation with the
c. Uncil brought out statements that
showed that the electric company had
put it's wires there on the lines sur
veyed for it by the city inspector. but,
as the recipient of various advantages
from the city at a not very high
price. it was expected to be nice
about matters of this kind.
Nc action was taken.
At the request of Councilman War
rem City Attorney Prescott reported
that he had given the street railway
company thirty days in which to re-
move their poles from Pierce street,
o. which there were yet ten days un-
expired. and that Supt Mitchell had
said that they were ready 10 make
the desired change in the set of poles
as soon as material on the way from
Sand Ridge, Idaho, should arrive; but
that their right of way in Evergreen
addition was over private property
and they would make no change
there. No action taken.

Grinned Into Matrimony.


That grinning matches were an ac-
cepted form Of sport in early English
days Is shown by an advertisement
announcing gold ring to be grinned
for by men on Oct. 8 at the Swan,
Coleshill heath, Warwickshire, which
appeared In the Post-Boy of Sept. II.
I'LL. Addison gives a detailed ac-
count Of one Of these Controversies Of
faces" telling US that the audience
unanimously bestowed the ring on a
cobbler who produced several new
grins Of his own invention, having
been used to cut faces for many years
together over his last"
His performance was something like
this: "At the very first grin he cast
every human feature out Of his coun-
tenance, at the second he simulated
the face Of spout, at the third that
Of baboon, at the fourth the head of
a bass viol and at the fifth a pair of
nut crackers" Addison adds that
comely wench whom he had wooed in
vain for more than five years was so
charmed with his grins that she mar
ried him the following week. the cob
bier using the prize as his wedding
ring.
