Zemansky, so the story goes, belleved Sporting Man Sends Bullets After " a Foot Racer as Aid to Speed. that he was going to get the “doubls cross” on the race, and that the racer, one Hennessey, was standing in on the play. To avert such an unhappy contin- gency Zemansky took out his revolver and fired a couple of shots over the flee- ing sprinter’'s head. such an amount of ginger Into Hens that Zemansky won the stake. Zeman- sky admits the shooting, but other sports declare that the sum sald to have been put up on the race has been exaggerated. | BOOMING THE GREATER SAN JOSE MOVEMENT | Santa Clara Valley ImprovementClub | | to Establish a Bureau in | Los Angeles. | | _SAN JOSE, Nov. 21.—The Santa Clara | | Valley Improvement Club has begun in | | earnest the work for a Greater San Jose | |and to_ advertise the resources of Santa | |Clara County.

W. Cottrell of Phoenix, | §| | Ariz., against Mrs. Mary V. Jones, wife of a Pittsburg millionaire manufacturer, to | recover $3000 for professional services, judgment of $20 was rendered in favor of | the plaintiff, which was regarded by the | jury as adequate compensation for ten visits made by the doctor. Although in his complaint Cottrell prays for $3000, the 2ction was regarded as a “bluff,” and In his testimony to-day he brought the figure down to $300. The sult was brought last April, soon after Mrs. Jones had received Cottrell's treatment for a disease which consisted of bleeding at the nose. Mrs. Jones r?tumed to Pittsburg and consulted her family doctor, who imme- diately reached the conclusion that Cot- trell had ntlewlefl to frighten his patient into parting with a large sum of money. Cottrell weakened to-day, refusing on the f/' stand to describe Mrs. Jones' disease, 1 ‘which the Pittsburg doctor declared to be of very ordinary character. Jones has not yvet taken action against the doctor and refuses to make known his plans. s e Stanford Students Honored. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Nov. 21— At a mceting of the student body to-day, . B.
