Vanity rises superior to patriotism, and no matter how bitter the feeling may be in France against the invaders of 1870, there are numerous Frenchmen, not werely civilians and diplomuats, but even officers of the army, who have accepted decorationsand orders cf knighthdod from the Emperor of Germany and from the rulers of Bavaria, Saxony, Wurtemberg and Baden. A few such as, for instance, the late Embassador Herbette at Berlin, bave dechined distinctions of this kind tendered to them, but their action was, as they themselves explained, due to the fact that the orders were not of sufficient 1ank to accord with their ideas of their own importance. Several of the prede- cessors of Embassador Herbette at Berlin gladly accepted the Star of the Black Esgle on leaving Berlin, and it would be diflicult to find any French diplomat who has been stationed at any German court whose breast is not adorned with some Teutonic decoration. TUnder the circumstances, the statement contaified in the cable dispatches to the effect that Dr. Roux is the first Frenchman to have accepted a werman order of knighthood since the war must be regarded as open to question.—New York Tribune, —————————— The University Medical College of New Orleans has determined to esiablish a training-school for negro women as nurses. ‘The object is to supply itrained nurses who wlft serve for moderate pay, | | ARE BUTTE'S: MEN ALONE OFFENDERS? Comments on the Status of Local Amateur Ath- letes. Why Humphrey Has Declared the Montana Players Professicnals. They Vainly Ofered to Play Two More Charity Games to Be Reinstated. The Butte-Olympic football game on New Year's day, with its questions and dispates over professionalism, has given rise to a serious discussion of amateurism and the status not only of the Butte play- ers but of some nearer San Francisco. On the occasion of the game President ‘W. F. Humphrey of the Pacific division of the American Amateur Athletic Union notified the Butte team that in deliber- ately appearing on the field reedy to play with two men whom the union alleges to be professionals it gave evidence of disre- gard to strict amateur rules amounting to professional intent. He had advised the team to go into the game without those two men, but Butte, inviting a protest that would nulbfy the game as a match, lined up, expecting that Oiympic would afterward consent to an exhibition charity game in which the ath- letic standing of the participanis cuts no figure. Then Butte would enter its regu- lar team in its full strength. Humphrey thersupon declared all the Butte men in the line-up professional athletes. Then the so-called exhibition practice game was played in such friendly Fivalry and gentieness that five men had to quit the field, and time had repeatediy to be allowed for others to recover suffi- ciently to continue the furious contest. The particular rules upon which Presi- dent Humphrey based his decisions in ae- claring the Butte players professionals and in permitting the exhibition game oceur in a series of recently adopted arti- cles defining what constituies an amateur. The two clauses, literally and without the general introductory, are given below. Tue fiirst defining an amateur, says he is: One who has never competed knowingly or intentionally with professionals or in a com- petition in which = prolessionals have com- peted, or who has never received from any club of which he has been a member remission of his entrance fee and annual dues, or who, for suy cause whatever, has never had such fee and Gues remitted, or has not been re- quired to pay them. The other clause, apart from its context but self-explanatory, reads: The prohibition of this article shall not be construed to debar the teams of unfon base- | ball and footbell clubs from piaying profes- sional teams, provided that no member of & union eiub shall receive any share of the gate money or compensation under any guise wlhat- soever for participating in any such game. Such, in part, was Humphrey’s author- ity, and thers can be no question that he did his official duty and would have been remiss had he tacitly ignored the- earlier aciton of the other branches of the union that had declared the two Butte men pro- fessionals, for professionals they would have to be eonsidered until properly rein- stated. ; 4 The gate receipts, amounting to between $1200 and $1500, are to go to charity. To What particular charity was not stipulated, though since the game both the Examiner and the Chronicle, it seems, have offered to assume the responsibility of distribut- ing and announcing their distribution of the funds. The money will, however, be distributed directly by the local representatives of the amateur union and (o such charitable organizations as they may at their meeting next Friasy evening decide to favor. It will probably be divided equally among several of the more deserving institutions of this City. A present the gate receipts are in charge of C. J. Bosworth, one of the Olym- pic managers, but he is restraned by an order issucd yesterday by Humphrey of the Amateur Union from disposing of any part of them, except a matter of about $175 for rent and preparation of the grounds for the games. Yesterday forenoon Manager McMillan of the Butte team called upon President Humpbrey and offered 1o play two more matches with any team whatever and absolutely for charity, if he would re- call his ruling making all 'the Butte play- ers professionals, simply because they had, uron the orders of their acting cap- tain, lined up with two avowedly dubious amateurs in their team. Humphrey did not see that any cou- cession would alter the case. But Mc- Millan was persistent. He had received a telegram from Millionaire Clarke of Butte, president of the football club, advising bim to get another game in San Fran- cisco, so that the team might come home to Montana victorious. McMilian offered to play Olympic another charity game, but the manager refused. Word came to Humphrey that Reliance would play Butte tor charity, but the in- formation did not reach the Buite team, which left this side of the bay in its private car at 4 o’clock in the aftornoon and soon afterward was speeding north- ward from Oakland with the Oregon ex- press. 3 Speaking yesterday of his ruling Presi- dent Humghrcy said : “When I explained the matter to the Butte men belore the game ail seemed satisfied but Benson, the acting captain. They said: ‘We can’t ask. you to lei Las- well plny; we know he is a professional. But can’t you allow Hall to play?’ Then they became inconsistent by lining up with those men, and in doing so showed zofessional intent. I told them then that et et professionals. I have no doubt the board of manacers, at its meeting next Friday night at the Olympic Clab, will uphold my ruiing, though it may not, as there are twenty-five mem- bers to consider my opinion. The question of the status of the Butte team will be taken up at that meeting.” Then President Humphrey went on to remark upon the prevailing ignorance on this coest of what a pure amateur is. He hinted at some thorough investigations to be made into the status of all athletes at both the universities. He said that he objected to the recent transfer of Reliance players to tue Olympic team. He con- siders the employment by any strictly amateur organization of persons not’bona- fide members a manifestation of laxness amounting to professional intent. He bad heard it statea that the names of several men who have represented -both the big athietie clubs this season are asso- ciated with those clubs solely as football- players and neither as paying nor bonor- ary members, recorded upon the official register as active members. He declared that the union bad not rec- ognized the recent boys’ coast champion- ship baseball games as amaieur contests, and he regrettea that in one of the final games the members of two of the teams were made professionals by arranging a special game, the proceeds of which were distributed among the players. In connection with coliege athletics he mentioned that if what he has heard be true Edgren, the weight-thrower, is not properly a representative of the Univer- sity of California, except for intermittent registration at the art school previous to intercollegiate field da: 60LD 1 ON THE GROUAD, Randsburg One of California’s Greatest Mining Camps. £ —— J. W. K:lly Says More Gold Is Scat- tered Over the Surface There Than Anvwhere Eise. John W. Kelly, a well-known mining man of the State, is in the City on busi- ness and will return to Randsburg and Inyo County in a day or two. Mr. Kelly has rich mining properties in both Ranas- burg and Inyo County. Speaking of Randsburg he said: * “There is more gold scattered over the surface in Randsburg than in any camp I waseverin. I think that California and the West promise to have there one of the richest camps. Every man who hasa claim in_the belt feels himself a million- aire. It is being watched by mining men from Montana, Colorado and Nevada. “Among the richest properties are those owned by the Rand Company and P. Reddy & Co.”” he said. *“One of the best of these is the Olympus chute of ore which runs $30 o the ton. There are twelve claims in the Rand Company group. Rich seams run all over the hiil apparenily tending toward the Olympus ors body. They get ore bauled ana m lled ior §8 50 per ton. | ““Owner rich linds are the Kenyon, | Wedge and Butte properties. The Ken- yon bas miilel ore tfrom a deptu of 70 feet, being tuken 6 feet wide from the vein, | and'it runs $116 per ton. The St. Eimo, owned by Bukersfield parties, is six miles from Randsburg, in the Mojave desert. Some very rich ore has been taken out there. 1t is right in the desert. A pros- pector in passing the spot hit a big bowl- der a clip, picked up the piece he knocked off, and there it was—rich quariz. } “Rendsburg is a typical mining town and is growing very rupidly. The popu- lation 1s now between 1500 and 2000 people, and more are coming in every day. Buildings are going up rapidly. A daiy newspaper was started 1wo or three weeks ago. Squatters have settled on some placer claims, and there may. be some trouble over it some day, but it has not appeared yet. These claims are taken up and are in the town.” Mr. Kelly has somerich copper veins in Inyo County. He will go there and start the work of opening them up before he goes to Randsburg.

A Unanimous Vote of the Board in Favor of the Poolroom Ordinance. Betting Can Only Be Carried On Within the Confines of a Racetrack. The Board of Supervisors crushed out the disreputable dens about town where young men and boys have been gambling away their own and their employers’ money by finally passing the poolroom ordinance yesterday. ‘When the board placed the stamp of its approval on the measure a few weeks ago and decided that the bucket-shops must go out of business, it was supposed that the Mayor, as a matter of course, would sign it at once, inasmuck as it was desired by the business community as well as by the better element of sporting men, who attend horserace meetings more for the pleasure of sceing a well-contested race than for the betting that is a usual accom- paniment. The retiring chief execative, however, held the ordinance the fuil time permitted by law and then sent it back to the board without his signature, thus informing the board that he did not approve of the measure. It was understood at the time the mem- bers heard that the order was to be vetoed that the Mayor's course would not be sustained, and yesterday’s proceedings carried out this view. The board met iu the morning and passed the ordinance to print over the veto. In the afternoon when the measure had been printed in the official newspaper as required by law the board met again and by & unanimous vote finally declared the ordinance a necessary oue, and made it a municipal law. Mayor Sutro’s motives in vetoing the order have been severely commented on by those who recognize the demoralizing influences of the pool-selling dens. Itis ireely said that his only reason is because the railroad which he chooses to consider his ancient enemy has two lines of road running to the racetrack where many of the patrons of the track will go now that the poolrooms are to be closed. These dens have brought more or less odium on the horse racing and raising in- terests that have brought capital and en- terprise to this coast, and the mercantile community will feel heartily giad that they are not to be permitied to iourish. Messenger-boys, errand-boys, clerks and others, who have neither time nor money to spare, were permitted to gamble, while the odds posted in these deadialls, tue sharks who lived off their earnings or pil- fering accepting wagers down to a two- bit piece in their eazerness to keep up their nefarious busines: The genuine sporting men, who go to races to see a spirited contest, never low- ered themselves to enter the dens, and they as well as the rest of the community will say, “Good rigdance to bad rubbish.” The people of Paris are'h.ppophagus to a remarkable desree, consuming on an average over 20,000 horses and donkeys annually. Last year, according to the re- turns, the Parisians ate 23,396 horses, 439 donkeys and 86 mules. This horse, don- key and mate flesh dressed ready for the butcher’s block weighed 5879 tons, and was sold at prices varying from 3 sous to 1 franc per pound, the latter being the price paid for the best horse steaks.

B GRAVES, 214 North Third street, San Jose, Cal., Dec. 8, 1896. +I was troubled with my stomach for more than ten years with' terrible pains and vomite ing, besides other general weakness. Since using your Belt, which I got last February, I have been iree from all those troubles,” writes M. C. BECKWITH, Fresno, Cal. : “At the time I bought your Belt I was So nervous and shaky that T conld not do any work without feeling perfectly exhausted. I had what is called Nervous Debility from excessive drinking and other excesses. Iwas practically a wreck, physically and sexuaily. Ihad spent over $300 for medicines, without the slightest benefit, when I was advised to use your Belt.
