Mat Storn’s game little mare Morinel had Mounce up in the mile and a sixteenth run, and 6 to 5 was the best ever laid against her. After getting out of a pocket on the back stretch, Mounce moved early along with old Tappan and in a long, hard drive scored at the wire by a head. None Such. a 300 to 1 shot. ran into the show.

R A PECULIAR SITUATION California Is Crippled at the Last Moment in the End Position. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Nov. 27.— asm and determined attitude has never been excelled at Stanford was tendered to-night to the men who will represent the cardinal in the annual gridiron matcn with the University of California next Thursday. The name of each member of the team was cheered to the echo by the twelve hundred students and alumni who crowded the ground floor of the Assembly Hall. Especially cordial was the recep- tion of “Stub” Raitt, the valiant quarter- back, who left a bereaved home five days before the game in order to be with his team In the big match. At the mention of his name the assembied throng rose to its feet and for a minute the air was full of cardinal caps and bunung. Frank Slaker of the University of Chi- cago, eleven, and Captain Burnett, who hLas shown rare grit in the practices of the last knee, ‘were almost as enthusiastically cheered. The programme consisted of speeches by the alumni, members of the faculty and team. Professor Burt Estes Howard was the first called upon. His remarks were full of humor, and his portrayal of the revelations made from the heavens to the members of the Berkeley team to “use sarsaparilla for that tired feeling” brought down the house. Charley Fick- ert, captain of the victorious team of "9, gave an estimation of the comparativ strength of the two teams, and gave it as his opinfon that Stanford should win by a small score. “Juck’ Reynolds and Dr. “Jule” Frankenheimer, halves on the team, Chet Murphy, captain of last year's team and quarter for four years, who have been coaching the team, all testi- fled to the excellent condition of Yost's squad and thought that the cardinal should win on form. Trainer Murphy said that the men were physically competent to make the fight of their lives and would be trained to the hour. Coach Yost and President Jordan were both unexpectedly called away, but left messages of en- couragement for the assembled crowd. A monster bonfire on the around which the students, headed by the university band, circled in lockstep, closed the demonstration. Coach Yost put the cardinal football squad through two signal practices to-day. The first took place ihis morning at 10:30 and the second this afternoon at 3§ o’clock, ‘The men are quick, precise and full ginger in their work, and in this eve ing’s practice the team showed varsity form. Quarterback Ralitt in the interference was in the best of form. The gritty little passer has fitted himself into his old po- sition with remarkable alacrity. “Barring_sprains and bruises’ the men are in good condition,” sald Trainer Mur- phy this evening. “Lee and Burnett have bIdlg" sprained knees and it is hard to tell how Jong they will bear uj strain of the big game. De Iorest is in condition again and will give a good ac- | count of himselt.” | “After the men finjshed signal practice | this evening Coach Yost expressed himself as being satisfled with the form of the team. There have been no changes made in the end places and they will be filled by McFadden and Cooper. The center posi- | tion is doubtful, McFadden, junior, being | in better condition than Lee. However, 112 Lee recovers from his sprained knee | he will go in the line-up as originally de- termined, Right half is still open and lies ‘betwm‘n Erb and Smith. Yost will not an- nounce who will draw the coveted honor till the morning of the game. Yost has consented to the selection of | Ralph Hoagland, a former Princeton sub- | stitute, to act as referee of the big game. W. B. Goodwin, Yale 'S8, will be umpire. | Hoagland was accepted upon the recom- 'menfiauon of Staggs and Dashiel, two famous Eastern experts.

He has not been playing with the varsity and does not know the signals. That the coaches are doubtful whether Hudson, Dibblee or Premo will be able to take part in the Thanksgiving game is | shown by the manner in which they have rushed Williams into line. Willlams is a good man and playved a lacks experience. The sudden loss of both the fllt ed man and substitutes has greatly weakened the left end. The general condition of the men is ood. A few are still suffering from in- uries, but they expect to be all right by hursday. Captain Pringle’s knee {s greatly im- proved. He went through the signal prac- tice with spirit. Hudson's left arm is bad- ly wrenched _and the muscles bruised. Al- t¥|ouxh he went through the signal prac- tice to-night, fn his present condition he {g unable to stand a heavy game. Trainer George Hufferdine is giving Hudson’s arm every care possible and hopes to put him in the fleld Thursday in good condition. Smith, right-half, has been below weight. He is a hard man to keep conditioned. During the last few days he has been resting and evidences of staleness are be- ing overcome. Although he will play un- der weight in the big game he will get # nearly to his old form. The Injury to ore's knee has proved to be slight. " He is punting as well as ever. Clay has re- covered from his bad cold. Professor W. B. Magee, physical culture at the State University, sai “The physical condition of our men is good.

Lib- bey and John Adams of Lewiston, Idaho, met with the Chamber of Commerce this afternoon to consider the matter of open- ing the Columbia River to free naviga- tion. .The particular project to engage at- tention_was a canal at the dalles of the river. It was resolved to ask Congress to change the plan of improvement from a boat rallway, for which an apporpriation of $250,000 has already been made, to a canal and locks, to. cost about $4,000,000. Inasmuch as the Idaho men have started the movement at this time, it was agreed that the Idaho delegation ‘should ent the subject before Congress and that the members of n and Washington ‘would be urged to support the measure. . .

To trose who sre acquaint- | ed with the abilities of the two contest- ants, this information is not surprising. That “Green’ will be victorious is a cer- tainty. Efther George Green or “‘Soldier” Phil Green must be declared a victor if | | the bout goes the limit, as the articles of | agreement expressly state that there must | be a decision. | | The familiar expression, ‘When Greek | | meets Greek, then comes the tug of war,” i | has been paraphrased by “Bogie” O’Don- | nell, who says that when ‘‘Green meets | Green, then comes a rough-house.” His | | view of the coming contest is that taken | by many followers of the popular game of hit and get away. George has no love for Middleweights to Do Battle Before the Friday Night. the Soldler and the latter has no affection for the local man. Both have been anxious to try concluslons in the ring and they will be given an opportunity on Fri- | day night. A victory means a great deal to George Green.

SILVER MEDALS THEIR REWARD Amateurs Pummel Each Other for Cheap Trophies and Glory. —— Michael Joseph Conboy, philosopher, | opera critic and sergeant of police, at- | tended the fights given at the San Fran-| cisco Athletic Club last night, and when festivities ceased he voiced the opinion that there was more fun watching “‘ama- teurs pummel each other than listening | to some spaghetti fellow throw his voice among the audience at the Grand Opera- house.”” Sergeant Conboy examined the | gloves throughout the evening to see that | none of the boxers put horseshoes within | the padding for luck, and during his| lelsure he passed expert opinions on the | contestants. Jack Kreling was given the decision and a sflver medal for winning his four rounds with Jack Cordell. In the bout between “Ki1d"” Krelling and Al Sneider, Krelling won In one round. Sneider received a smash In the face, and he devoted his | time to spitting out teeth. He quit when the bell sounded. Hugh Friel and “Kid" | Haley, fought a draw. Ed Devlin, a youth | with twisted lamps, made short work of | Jeemes Sharkey, a tall lad with a prom- inent “beak.”” The knockout came in the second. Tom Floss and a woolly colored | fellow named Duke, who was a plcture of Walcott, fought four vicious rounds. Floss was given a decision, but he did not deserve it. Pete Magee and George Carroll put up the best fight of the night. Magee won with straight left jaba. His opponent, however, kept him busy. It was a close decision. “Deacon” Jones and Ah Wing furnished the merriment. They pummeled each other for four rounds, and the fighting was so close that an extra round was called. Tt was declared a draw, much to the *“Deacon’s” disgust. He made a protesting speech and was showered with silver by his admirers. Wing proved a wily Chinaman, clever in a way, and able to take a punch. He was sent down re- eatedly from heavy rights, but arose and ought hack viciously. His queue bothered him considerably, until Alec Greggains wound it around hig neck. -~ The programme concluded with a hot four-round battle between Dan Reagan and Billy Kelly, the latter winning by a narrow margin. 1 Acting as a Profession.

The way in which they hope to down him and get themselves out of a fight place is by re- inspection of this week's receipts, which have been graded No. 8, one grade too low to pass as contract. ““There will be big deliveries on Friday," sald Charles Slade, manager for Counsel- be reinspected will pass at No. 2. At a time like this, when there is a corner on, the Inspectors are scared, and to be on the safe side they grade corn No. 3 where there is any question about it at all, knowing that if they are wrong supervis- ing inspectors will go over it and give the right grade.” “They won't get a car of it graded up,"” said Phillips, when he was told of the new tactics of the shorts. ‘hen there is a corner on there is always a big demand for reinspection, but it never amounts to anything.” n account of the corner we are get- ting about double the applications for re- inspection which we receive normally,” sald Edward J. Noble, supervising in- spector. “Four times out of five, certain- Iy three times out of four, the supervising Inspectors uphold the previous inspec- on.

Between fifty and fifty-one cents he unloaded 200,000 bushels, his total sales for the day being 240,000 | bushels. As he is selling corn bought at | thirty-six cents, his day's transactions | netted him a profit betfer than $25,000. Other days this week are said to have been equally profitable to him.
