Reply of the Presidemt to Letters Hinting That He Could Have the Position. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Car., Oct. 14.—Dr. Jordan stated'this evening that the directorship of the.United States National Museum became vacanta month ago by the sudden death of Dr. G. Brown Goode. In most regards a directorship in this in- stitution is the most desirable scientific position in the country. It has not been offered to me,” said the president of Stanford, *‘though I have had a number of private unofficial letters ask- ing whether I would accept the position, if offerea. I replied that I could not ac- cept, as I hope to remain at Stanford as long as I am fit for any position at all.” Dr. Jordan further stated that he would | not leave Stanford for any position what- soever. A few years ago nothing would have suited him better than such a position, and his highest ambition was to | get into that institution; ‘*but now,” said Presigent Jordan, “without my students around me; without their enterprises, which are also mine; without our foot- ball team, I wouldn’t know what to do.”” From the smile which accompanied Dr. Jordan’s words, it is plain that in de- clining to allow bis name to go in_ he was in earnest, and his heart is with Stanford, where he expects to do his life's work. EE i JOEDAN IS FAVORED. Cowid Have the App iment if He Cared to Accept. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 14.—The appointment of a successor to Professor Brown Goode, deceased, as assistant sec- retary of the Smithsonian Institution and director of the National Mus€um will be considered at the January meeting of the board of regents of the institution. . Direc- tor Gardner Hubbard admitted to-night suggestion was favorably received. It is believed that a naturalist will be appointed, and Professor Jordan is con- sidered by all scientists connected with the Smithsonian Institution and the Na- tionai Museum to be one of the most scholarly and experienced men who could fill the pesition. It is questionable, though, whether Professor Jordan would be willing to resign his place in Stanford University, which pays bim $10,000 a year, | to accent the directorship, whose salary is enly $4500. FATHER YORKE AT THE CAPITAL, Speaks to Hundllds on the Kelation of Church and State. SACRAMENTO, Caw, Oct. 14.—Father Peter C.

Buckley’s Populist lambs held their rati- fication meeting at the People’s party tent last night. In this they were assisted by a brass band. Nearly all the candidates were present. J. H, Tingman called the meeting to order. Joseph L Dimond, Buckley’s candidate for Mayor, was then introduced and was warmly applauded. Dimond spoke rather briefly, affirming with due solemnity his position on the silver question and the candidacy of Wil- liam J. Bryan. The speaker read sections from the St. Louis platform, being frequently inter- rupted by applause. n endeavoring to vindicate himself from certain charges made against him as & candidate Dimond asseverated that they were ‘“‘as false as b——L.” He denied hav- ing shirked his duty of voting on impor- tant matters which had come before the Board of Supervisors during the last two years, and declared that he was one of the foremost opponents of the Geary-street franchise. n‘i’ ;dp Maguire was then introduced. de 1 regard the action of the Populist Na- tional Convention in nominating Bryan, because he stands for the people as patri- oticin the extreme.” In conclusion Judge Maguire said his course in the future would be in keeping with the past. A. B. Kinne, candidate for Congress from the Fifth, spoke against the new charter and said the time had come when the people must measure their strength with the corporations. Fleet F. Strother, candidate for Audi- tor, thanked the Populists for his nomina- tion. All the candidates for Supervisor with the exception of omne, who was ab- sent, then made brief speeches. ‘Ihen came three canaidates for Superior Judge, Frank H. Dunne being absent. Joseph Lexgett said the Populists must recognize one another when they saw him, because his nomination was unsc- licited. He was for Bryan and Dimond and against the “infamous” new charter. W. G. Burke said he appeared not as a candidate but as a man interested in the cause of the people, Judge Robert Ferral did not speak tili near the close of the meefing. “Coionel” Jonn O’Byrne, candidate for District Attorney, spoke strongly of the A.

Francisco de Ojeds has returned from Guatemala with a bullet wound in his right ankle and a determination that he will not return there next year to race his horses. Ojeda is a prominent member of the old Bay District Track Association and the Cal- ifornia and Pacific Coast Jockey Clubs, and for the past few years he has been ship- ping part of his stable to Guatemala to run in the Central American Derby. ‘With Dr. Ross, who was too well known here to run without a heavy handicap, he captured the first Derby in Guatemala some four years ago and year after year he sent there some horse who carried off the purse. It got so that the veterans of the Central American turf chafed under repeated defeats in their yearly great event and jealousy was engendered to an unusual degree. The Derby was to be run on the 12th of August, and Ojeda arrived with his stable some time early in July. He found that his main competitor was a man named Schumann, who bad two entries against which no one would start so sure was he of winning. Ojeda, however, had a mare in his stable he was g 1o enter and back until a few days of the event, when he found there was something wrong about her. He said nothing, however, and it was not known thatonly Scku- mann’s horses would run. On the afternoon of the 11th of August Ojeda and a party of friends were at din- ner in the Gran Hotel and were discussing track matters when an individeal, who was subsequently recognized as the second secretary to President Barnos, but whose back was turned to the vparty, rose and called Ojeda “Bobosa.” While not an in- sultof a very grievous kind, it was sufi- cient to cause Ojeda to siap the man's face. - The affair, which at first promised to be more serious, passed away without any further ado. “‘At9 o’clock that night,” said Mr. Ojeds, *I was shot by some unknown person as I ‘was walking vpstairs tc my apartments. I never saw who did- it, nor do I know whether it is the outcome of my slapping the fellow’s face who insulted me. ~‘There is one thing certain, and that is Ihave quit raciog in Guatemala. I sold all my horses there to President Barrios, and I will not send any more down there to compete for the Derby. I have won it often encugh to satisfy me, and if winning it again involves a shooting scrape, or if I cannot slap a man’s face who insults me without being shot at from the rear and in ambush, Ithink I'd better stay and race Mission Eepublicans.

The property-owner in South San Fran- cisco who claims to have a ““tip”’ on what the Southern Pacific Railroad Company intends doing in the near future are hastening to improve the streets in that locality. The grading of Railroad avenue fro_m Eighteenth avenue out to the Five-mile House, s distance of about two miles, is & starter in the direction of making the soathern side of the peninsula an opening into San Mateo County. : ‘When this road is complete it will join the old San Bruno road al its intersection at the Five-mile House, thus bringing the Mission and the south side into more direct connection with the business por- tion of the City proper. In anticipsting this the knowing ones bave kept a sharp lookout on the maneuvers of the company, and have no- ticed a gang of men working on a tunnel through the hill at the Five-mile House, which property belongs to the railroad company. As Mr. Huntington and his agents guard their realty with a very zealous eye, it is considered hardly pos- sible that the excavators are cuttinga tunnel through the hill for the fun of it. This movement, together with the pur- chasing of land along the contemplated line over and under which the southern route 1s said fo be likely to run,as also the ownership of the site mentioned for the supposed shops, leads the ple to believe that South san Francisco has a big future before it After Sullivan’s Scalp.

Some Have Them and Others Are Nof Without. A man likes some hot drink for break- fast, and coffee suits his taste about as well as anything. It seems hard that so many should be denied coffee because it upsets their liver and disagrees with them in one way d another. Still this condition does and when 8 man finds it hurts him he is generally sensible enough to leave it out of his bill of fare, for itis quite & bit pleasanter to feel well all day than to enjoy a drug two or three minutes and pay for it in aches and ails or sickness.
