By Special Wire to Tax Evexrxo Stan. Axaxostay Istaxp. Oct. 11.—Jupiter Pluvius §oemed to wake up this morning with a set- fied determination to spoil the day for the games on Analostan Island He frowned and grombled and at times shed a few moisty tears that moistened the hopes of the hundreds of athletes who fearfully pulled window blinds aside and looked out for rain. But somehow or other Jupiter seemed to get side-tracked. Struggle as he might he could produce nothing but a gray, dull, sulky effect that lessened as the day progressed. And with the gradual defeat of the tearful god rose the hearts of the expectant people, although the west still contained some nasty looking clouds. Early in the morning the officials of the athletic meet began to find their way over to Analostan Island. By 10 0’clock, the hour set for the championship lacrosse game, there was quite a sprinkling of athletes and spectators on the ground. By the time the lacrosse game was started the weather was ail that one could wish for such an event as an athletic day. It was not too hot and this was a blessing for the lacrosse players. GROUNDS IN PERFECT CONDITION. The grounds were in perfect condition, and ‘twas hard for the visitors from the out-of- ‘own clubs to believe that all the improve- nents on the Island could have been made in ihe short time that the Island has been used by ‘he cin as an athletic ground. The track was hard and epringy, and looked fast enough to Setisfy the most critical of the sprinters, In short, everything was in perfect order from one dud of the Island to the other. ‘The long covered grand stands were prettily Secorated with tiags aud colored bunting and nade a gay background for the green field. In ihe rear of the stands a row of white tents was rected to be used as dressing rooms for the Bontestants. CROSSING TO THE ISLAND. All the morning the puflings of tugs could be heard as they hurried across the river from the Columbia Club's boat house to the wharves that had been built on the shore at Analostan Island. The contestants reached the island fm small squads during the morning, mingled in with the spectators and Officials and others who did not come early enough to see the lacrosse game. Some of the jumpers went over on the field to feel of the jumping soil and the sprinters patted the track Bpprovingly, to the delight of the heart of Prof. O'Neill, who still adhered to his prophesy that there would be records broken. SCENES OF BUSY PREPARATIO! the lanes were at once removed from the track. | ‘The starters were Burkhardt, P.A.C.; Bardeer, B. Howard, A.A, and Lange, Gregg, ichoil, M.A.C. Berrian Ware aud’ Keating failed to start. The men started off all in a wiggling bunch with Nich- oll setting the pace. Little Burkhardt soon went to the front and soon pressed the tall leader. The men hugged the track board on the inside and swayed from side to side. At the quarter Nicholl and Lange together. ‘The time was 1.35. Bar- deen dropped away behind on the west stretch of the second half and was practically out ofthe race.

Burdnardt spurted finely on this quarter and on the north turn took a good lead over Nicholl. At the southeast turn he led by three yards, but then Nicholl put out bis last wind and rapidly overtook the leadef. NICHOLL WINS THE RACE, The homestretch was exciting.

Burkhardt held the championship with 6.52 4-5, THE 120-YARDS HCRDLE RACE. The 120-yards hurdle race was runon the track instead of the turf, as was planned. The first heat was run by Puffer, N.J.A.C., and Finneran, B.A.A. This heat was won by Puffer in 17 seconds, with Finneran second, Copeland. M. A. C.; Ducharme, D. A. C.; Struse, M. A.

Barnes, N.J.A.C. ‘They were all together until the last hurdle was jumped, when Williams took a slight jead and won in 16 2-5, with the other three men tied for second plac The dead heat between Ducharme and Cepe- land was tossed and Ducharme won. The dead heat between the three second men in the third heat was run and was won by Lewis in 16°4, with Schwegler second. Bobby Elder. one of the assistant marshals, created a diversion by com- pelling a man in the front row of the bleacher- ies to lower his white Manhattan umbrella, ‘The follow objected, but Bobby was game and received the cheers of the crowd. The heat for second men was between Finneran, Lewis and Copeland and was won by Copeland in 16 3-5, with Lewis second. THE QUARTER-MILE RUN. Just then the band was playing the Dude’ Marcb, with its whistling accompaniment, and the crowd began to Jaugh. It eased the ten- sion of the atmosphere. ‘The quarter mile was run in two trials and a final. rton, M.A.C .C.; Deveren: hrane, N.Y.A.C. ) c. e before the middle of the turn was reached. The race was led at first by Norton. ‘The bunch kept in better siape on the stretch and the first and last men were within yards of each other. Downs won by a yard in 51 1-5 seconds, with Cochrane second and Estes third, ‘Lhe second trial was between Dickinson, C. A. C.; Roddy. M. A. C.; Seblichter, A. S. N.; Pennington, M. A. and Spencer, B A A. Dickinson was in the middle, The heat was not as close as the other, but it excited more enthu- siasm, as Dickinson led from the start and won the heat by three yards with case in 52, with Spencer and Remington next. The crowd yelled itself hoarse and “Tubbes” was almost lifted off the ground after the run. SEVERAL PROTESTS ENTERED. At this point an announcement was made that several protests had been received by the referee. The New York club protested against the running of Copeland and Quirkbemer of the Manhattan Club. on the ground of professionalism, and the Manhattan did the same on Mitchell on the same ground. The Manhattan club also protested the run- ning of Nickerson by the N.Y.A.C. on the ground that he is not a member of that club, TWO-MILE BICYCLE RACE. The first heat of the two-mile bicycle race was begun by Crist, C.A.C.; Berlo and Halloch, M.A.C.; Ives, Murphy and Valentine, N.Y. A.C.

The same order pre- Became a scene of nervous activity, The New York Club bad the three tents on the south end, the Manhattans the next three and then the minor clubs ranged along toward the river. Inside the tents the athletes wore getting into their playing clothes and the trainers were jumping here and there, with rubbing cloths and towels, getting their mer into shape for the great struggle. Trott, the C.A.C. darling.{ran around quis as lively as the trainers and made hims+ f so generally promis- euous that he had to be tied to a post under the grand stand in the room used by the Columbia men for dressing. An amateur photographer posed Tommy O’Neil in the grove behind the stand and took his pic- ture. The Marine Band bogan to play before the lacrosse game had been finished and bad to be stopped. ‘Their program for the afternoon -vas as fol- lows: 1, High School Cadets’ March: 2, Don't You Hear Dem Bells; 3, Giger!; 4, Wilhelm Tell: 5, Swinging in the Grapevine Swing; 6, Lohengrin; 7.

While the struggles of the lacrosse pl: Were passing through the final stages of the Games officials began to put their heads to- Gether and to plan their work. The vacant spaces on the stands were filling up more rapidly and the crowds came in more frequent pulsations as the three boats plied beck sud forth. The folks on the bleacheries began to sing club songs and distiches and to make the air ring with cries and sbouts to in- dicate their individual preferences. The island throbbed with the growing excitement. ‘The lacrosse players filed off the ficld after their cheers for themselves, ecch other and fverybody else at just 1 o'clock and the band began to play. Then the excitement came to its height and the crowds on the bleacheries Stood upto rest. The sua smiled through the clouds and a few scores of the people smiled foo. The path leading up from the river was by this time a constantly rushing human stream and the band still played. THE ONE HUNDRED YARDS DAS.

Once ina while, though, the ball went into their midst aud there was fun as they cleared out of the Way, As lacrosse players the Marine Band are not “in it.” ‘They do not know the first priuci- ples of the game und stand in need of practice.

ANOTHER GOAL FOR M'CLAIN. The game went the other way just the same, for within @ minute of the time the ball was faced McClain got it and threw his s-ird suces- sive goal. Score, 5-1. STATEN ISLAND WINS BY 7 TO L. A few little scraps occurred, but nothing serious took pluce, and taking it altogether the game was played in a very manly and sports- Each of these teams had already won # game from the Manhattans, which tied them for first place, for the Detroits and tho Pitts- bur ;s had withdrawn from the contest, As a result the game this morning was for blood, and each team was on hand to do the very best it knew and tocarry home the championship trophy if it were possible, ‘Ihe two teams were composed as follows: THE OPPOSING TEAMS. Staten Island—Goal, H. A. Matthews; point. D. Brown; cover point, Cyrus C. Miller; first def. field, W. Mitchell; second def. field, W. C. Post; third def. field, W. G.

See of the C.A.C. acted as umpire for Staten Island and E. T. Pe- louse of Philadelphia for the Schuylkill men to decide on the throws for goal. HOW THE PLAYERS LOOKED. The Staten Island men were the first to put in an appearance on the ground, They pre- sented a fine appearance as they came running out tossing the ball from stick to stick, or more technically, from crosse to crosse. They were dressed in black jersey shirts and white rup- ning trunks and looked ready to last through a long and hard game. It goon became evident trom their practice play that they were experts with the sticks aud weil deserve the eastern championship that they now hold. ‘They were soon followed on to. the field by the Philadelphia men, who were dressed in full suits of red jersey with their club letters, “A. C. 3. N.,” worked in white on their breasts. At first sight they looked to be rather the lighter team, but they were very fit and ready to run for a day if necessary. THE GAME BEGUN. It was 10:44 when game was called and the ba! put in play with the navy men at the southern goal. The Philadelphia boys got the bail first and managed to keep it fora minute or two, during which they made one throw for goal, but missed. But & boy in black got the ball then and it went sailing up the field. Meharg of the islanders secured it in his stick and threw the first goal within two and a half minntes of the time the game was called, ‘Then the goals were changed, and after # few seconds’ intermission the ball was putin play again, and in a very brief space of time the sianders had the ball and threw for goal, but the ball went wild, Both teams were playing rather loosely, and the ball passed from side to side and from end to end rather too freely, TEAM WORK COMPARED. The Staten Island team appeared to bea little the better at stick work and in passing, but the advantage was not a marked one. Still the ball stayed around the navy’s goal with alarming persistency, and several attempts for goal wero made, but all went wild. Powell, the Canadian ptain of the Reds, got the ball and made a pretty run up the field, but after a throw the ball changed hands ‘and was soon back in its old place. A good throw was made, but the rubber strack goal post and bounded back into the field and the fun begun allover again. The bail was continuaily oing Out over the track and every time, of ve, it was out of play and had to be put itito playagain, No playing was allowed on the’ track fad everything was done to keep the track inthe best possibie coadition for the afteruoon’s games. Bowell again made a pre run, but lost the ball, and it was soon back again. A good throw by Ogle went it up near the S.LA.C.’s goal, but the reds could not keep it there. The ball began to change ends pretty rapidly once more and only good checking and goal tending pre- vented several goals from being made, AN UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT. At this point of the game a scrap occurred than the first, and showed that the two teams were pretty nearly matched. i The chief advantage of the New York team was in their superior team play. As usual, that was what won the game. Toward the lat- ter part of the game the 8.I.A.C.’s rather played for time, though several throws for goal were made. Richards threw a goal and McClain threw another just before time was called. Score, S.LA.C., 7: A.C.8.N., 1 oth teams tuned up and cheered thé other when time was called and the great game was over. The 8.LAC.’s are now the champions of the A.A.U., and they won their honors in as good a game as any one could ask to sec. It was a fair, exciting contest, and the better team won on its merits, SMOKING ON STREET CARs. the Acorns and the N. ¥. A. C. was in the hands of Ouk Seed, from the drop.

The Stan man followed up two flights of stairs, then back through a long, dark hall and the hospital for dogs was reached. It consisted of a large, warm room with comfortable beds for the dogs. Three of these were occupied. In the first bed a large Newfoundland dog was recovering from a severe attack of rheumatism, and when the doctor approached he got up and wagged his tail and stretched himself, “You'll soon be all right old man,” said the doctor, patting his big shaggy coat. “Do you mean to say that the rheumatism that dog has is similar to the disease of the same nae so prevalent among human beings?” asked the reporter, Ye W ot? I claim that dogs have the same diseases men do. This Freuch poodie here has yeliow jaundice. Look.” The reporter looked, and sure enough every mptom of that peculiar disease was apparent, ‘The dog’s face was a sickly yellow and it seemed Unwilling to move, “Dol expect to cure it?

You know they can't say anything, even if they de growl « little.” “No, I was never bitten by asick dog. They seem to know that I am doing all I can te make them well and I think appreciate it.” “That was an excellent method of giving ills, 1 noticed a few moments ago, but how jo you manage when the medicine is in liquid form: Nothing easier in the world,” answered the doctor, removing @ splinter from a setter's broken leg. “Take the dog between your legs and force its mouth open by pressing the finger and thumb on either side of the throat.

The company permita you to do it so long as no objection is made by any of your fellow passengers, but if objection is made that settles it,” “You permit smokingon the back seats of the open cars.” “Only so long as no objection is made. The same rule applies in that case also, Any woman or other person in an open car who chooses to object to smoking in the vehicle bas aright to demand that it be stopped.” The fat ssenger got off in disgust at Dupont Circle and the conductor, turning to a writer for Tux Stan, sai ‘It's funny, but hardiy any one knows what the rule really is on that point, If it was better unders' Women would often object with effect to smoking in their faces on crowded open cars where they are not able to obtain just making its appearance from behi:d the clouds and everything was favorable for good time and sharp contests, Track and field events went on at the same time, and, while the run- ners were getting in place for the 100-yard dash the heavy weights of the tug-of-war teams made their appearance. The stands were all filled and there was the biggest crowd on hand old Analostaz Island ever saw. The Marine Bund played continuously and added a great deal to the pleasure and interest of the day. The games were started Promptly on time and everything was managed in the best possible reflecting the greatest crodit on all the order, r ials, ‘THE TUG OF WAR. ‘The first in the list of field’ events was the trial pull of the tug-of-war teams from the A.

The pul board and cleats were located in the ceuter of the base ball diamond and in full view from ev that reflected no credit on any one.

Striking and punching made things fively, and when Schell of the navy went down, he got a number of sharp raps referee soon aoe the fighters, and King, Staten Isiands, was disqualified for his te und his team played one man short, Under the rules 2 substitute cannot enter until a goal has been made.
