Tried Everything without Avail. CURED BY CUTICURA IN 3 WEEKS My little sister (Annie Matthews,La Plata, Charles County, Md.) had the cow-pox from vaccination, when only seven years old. She suffered terribly,and everything that we tried did not seem to do any good. Every time her mother would take her clothes off, every bit of scab would come with them, and she was raw all over. A friend told mother about CU- TICURA RENEDIES, and she got one box of Curicvra (ointment) and_a cake of CUTI- CURA SOAP, and they cured her in three weeks.

It is said that Mr. Oelrichs has been devot- ing his time In San Francisco for several months in aid of the new enterprise. The decisfon to extend the Valley road re- moved the last obstacle to the consum- mation of the great plan of competition. Many persons supposed that Mr. Oelric! was giving his time chiefly to the in dental affairs of life, but now it transpires that his prolonged sojourn on the Pacific Coast had a motive which was not ex- plained to the publi. He will return from Bremen within five weeks, The building of the Valley road from Stockton to Bakersfield emancipated the ts and farmers of the great San Joaquin region from the tyranny of the Southern Pacific.

HE second gridiron battle of the sea- T son proved very poor football, with a score that must make the Olympics wince and the Stanford men not too Jjubilant, although they heaped up a hill of 23 points. The Clympics we fully debilitated and Stanford abnormally strong. It was not on account of the very fine playinz of the college men, but the very poor work of the club- men. Were it not for the rows of slouch hat- ted soldiers who filled tne bleachers on the south side of the field there would have been a very small crowd to watch the game yesterday. To them it was a holiday, and the opportunities to shout were not lost. Murphy took the fancy of the bluecoats, and his splendid runs from one end of the field to the other provoked the wildest of war whoops from the bleachers. Burmeister, the cardinal full- back, encircled by a halo of bright red halr that is a perfect match in shade to Manager Pritchard’s carmine locks, was the new man of the day, and he showed up in thoroughly good style. His line bucking was of the right sort, and his dash and quickness of getting into the play will make him a strong back before the season is over. Parker and Smith of Stanford played a steadv and _gingery game on the ends. Nothing much can be said of the Olympics' playing, if nil nisi bonum _is followed as a motto of elocu- tion. They seemed not *n realize that a football game was in progress. Stanford went through their line at will for gains of all denominations and circled the ends, particularly the right, for stretches of Perritory that would make even a Gov- ernment surveyor shake with palsy in their measurement. The game began its eccentric career when Murphy kicked off deep into the Olympic fleld. De Ballister, with the ball dangerously near his own posts, fumbled the pigskin and Smith of Stanford assim- ilated it. Stanford then had but ten yards to cover for a touchdown, which they failed to do, however, for when Burmeis- ter was pukhed across ghe line Code of the Olympics appropriafed the ball and all the cardinal got for its pains was a touchback—a point of honor without any score. Then the ball was taken out to the a line and Weldon kicked to Murphy, who returned tne compliment. The Olymplics relied on another kick after futile attempts to buck the college line. Murphy tucked the sphere away under his arms and made one of his startling runs. Stanford worked the ball within a 0od range for a field goal, which Murpt)g ed and missed. Another kick from “The syndicate is now composed of Klaw & Erlanger, Charles IFrohman, Nixon & Zimmerman of Philadelphia, Washington and Baltimore; Rich & Harris of Boston and Friedlander, Gottlob & Co. of San Francisco, Our booking will be done by Klaw & Erlanger, just as it has been done in the past year. There is really no_difference in the management and regulation of things since the new change. We have been dependent upon the courtesy of Klaw & Brlanger, and now they wlll be obiiged to look out for the interests of the new member. It is no different than if we paid them a com- mission for booking. The gain is that we will have the best of everything that comes along, and the publif‘ will see bet- ter shows. ~ There will be no conflicts under the new order of things, such as a comedy at the Baldwin again: t ('flm.mu at the Columbia, or a tragedy against a tragedy. That will all be obviated, as the big companies which the sy dicate con- trols will all be placed so that a \':){!(-ty is obtained, and not Cnnt.llcllng cards of the same general nature. VAMPIRES PRACTICE. The Vampire Association football play- ers met yesterday afternoon on the Gold- en Gate ground for the first practice game of the season. Only ten men put in an appearance, among them being G. T. S. White, captain; J. J. R. Peel, C. P. Coles, H. Punnett, H. W. Dye, J. D. Rob- ertson, J. McGaw and W. G. Svlwr‘)odA After some kicking and running, sides were formed and there were two ten- minutes halves of play. Most of the players, while in fair physical condition, found the exertion somewhat trying, but a few weeks' practice will make the work comparatively easy. Next Satur- day the Vampires play the first match of the season at the Presidlo against a team of regulars and volunteers. The Vampires will play regularly on the ground at Golden Gate, upon which goal posts have been set up, the limits being marked by flags. During the sea- son matches will be plaved with ms from Oakland, the Presidio, Keswick and Placer County. It i{s proposed to play at Keswick on Thanksgiving day, and to have a return match against the Keswick team on Washington's birthday. Two or three times during the season matches will be aranged between the Vampires and teams of apprentices from British ships in the harbor. —_— e TROOPS LEAVING ON FURLOUGH Many Officers and Soldiers Being Mustered Out.

The first half lasted a few milmlvs after this and then the whistle ¢ The second half showed prettier pic- tures of football than the first, albeit the play was of the most ragged order.

Murphy f: goal and so the game progresse everybody on the Stanford team was hopeful of scoring a touchdown. Murphy eld for about seventy-five yards, unhindered, and scored the third touchdown, which he ed off with a goal. When the fourth down was added to the Stanford score the game looked a little one-sided and the awful tension that was noticeable during the earlier part of the play disap- peared suddenly. It was a tension that usually means murder in Oklahoma. The Olympic team was_weaker than of last week and the Stanford eleven a fairly strong one for this time of seagon.

Lowell High School's repre ITowoi e o presentatives by « THE LATEST PICTURE OF COACHES COCHRAMN AND the Olympic Football Team The victory was a hard earned one, and was witnessed by a large crowd of students of both sexes, who yelled and cheered their representatives. The wear- ers of the cardinal played hard from the kick-off, and although they repeatedly had the ball in their opponent’s territory, were only able to score one touchdown and a safety. In the first half Rice, the young captain of the Palo Alto contin- gent, suffered injurles and reluctantly left the game. Frisselle and Carson also succumbed and gave way to substitutes. Rooney of Lowell and Geissler of Stan- ford distinguished themselves in the ini- tial half by long runs. The second half was a reEelilion of the first, both teams playing _hard and fast. Symmes kicked to the five-yard line, and the ball was run in ten yards. An end run netted sfx yards, and Stanford bucked to the 45-yard line, when it lost the ball on downs. Lowell was given fifteen vards on off side play, and Stanford again got the ball on downs. Geissler was given the ball and went around the left end twice for gains of fifteen yards. A number of bucks brought the pigskin to Lowell's 45-yard line, when it was lost on downs. Lowell advanced the ball a few yards on the first play, and then Hooper kicked into Stanford's territory. Geissler, who was playing fullback, ran through his field to Lowell's ten-yard line before being tackled. Downing was then pushed over for a touchdown. Geissler kicked a pretty goal from near the side lines. ‘When time was called the ball was in the center of the field. The most notable work of the Low- ell team was performed by Symmes, the right tackle. He repeatedly broi through Stanford’s line and nailed his man in his tracks. His tackling and kicking was noticeable. Rooney and Kidd also did good work. Ellenwood was a trifie weak at left end, many gains being made around him. Geissler, Downing and Rudolphe were the cardinal’s stars. Following is the way the teams faced each other: Stanford. Positions. Lowell H. 8. L. E. R. .Olewell Symmes -Cook {Capt.) Kidd Cooper.
