BERKELEY, March 7.—An unusually short track season has fallen to the lot of the University of California athletes this term. Rain has kept the men from much necessary work, and although but about thirty days remain before the inter- collegiate meet the men have not been able to have regular practice. They have worked faithfully when they could and this has kept them up physically. Fortu- nately the athletes are, as a whole, in unusually good condition considering the amount of practice they have had, and this brightens what, under other cireum- stances, would be rather a dark outlook for the season, No time has been taken of any of the sprinters and runners. In fact there have been but few days when the track could be used and the athletes have developed themselves in cross-country runs and in sprinting around the baseball field, which i higher and dryer than the einder path, A, D, Piaw, the hammer thrower, was ill for a time with & cold, but is out again whirling the welght in recovd-hreaking fashion, Anthony Cadogan leads the bunch of sprinters and Chester Hrown and 1, R, Abadle' are showing great promise also in the same Hne, Track Cap- taln Maward Hussey has jumped 5 feet o Inehes and s expected (o exosed that record, In the distanees R, ' Hervies Teads, Vo Ligda, ®, Hedewill, 0, B, Waest- duhl and M, Bmilie are showing good form in fhoss ovents, W Powaell, | O Cheele and T L Hamlin the hurdies tn hand, Fowell strained his knes n el praction and will bo Kept from hird work for weveral days Ha and vn.mk hiye reoopds of 6 fesl 10l ||nl||m| i font 0 dehes, respeetl i the Wigh Jump; o A, Wiloox 16 the ohly pole Vit fe Naa davolnped ‘nnm i wFatyely poor work until he s reaching awned the 1 Tk e fest (ryout of aiy of the nihleies will e o the B30 jnet, when the fresh i gophoiore Hr“nl duy will he hold O He B0l there will be o general (ry-out }-w (he Intercolleginte temn and on Apell 10 the games with Beanford will he held ut Palo Alty.

Chief Wittman is maintaining a strict socrecy ns to the whereabouts of Captain geymour, chief of detectives, who left hicre a few days ago to run down an im- portant clew in connection with the Nora Kuller murder. It was hinted that Sey- mour had gone north, but it is now con- ceded that Captain Seymour has taken an entirely different direction, If he has gone north jt Is quite possible that he s nuct very far from San Franclsco, In what direction S8eymour went Chief Wittman will not say. It Is admitted, buwever, that the chief of detectives is in search of Nora Fuller's murderer and the police confldently expeet that they will have the much-wanted man in their tefls within a few days. The following dispatch was recelved last night from BSeattle, but little ecre- dence i placed In the statement that Cap- toin Seymour visited that place: TLE, Wash., March 7.—It Is belleved police circien that Captain Seymour, rancisce detective, who recently loft Wity to track down the murdersr of Nora been In Seattle within the last Fuller, woek and - nt from here to Tacoma. At that place all track of him was lost. Another disputchl from Vancouver states that Captain Beymour did not ar- rive there yesterday.

VOORSANGER SPEAKS OF BELIEF IN BIBLE Says Sacred Book Is the Political and Moral Constitution of the World. Rev. Jacob Voorsanger delivered an in- teresting lecture at the Temple Emanu- El last night, his theme being the various attitudes toward the Bible as an inspired work. He defined the different positions assumed by theologians and laymen con- cerning the Bible, saying in part: No_question is so interesting as the general interrogation, what does belief in the Bible really mean? Belief is a broad word. It is like an ample garment in the folds of which one may hide himself. What do people mean when they say, I believe? One cannot solve the mysteries” of creation, one cannot define life. God s a quantity 'in human faith as well as a quality. Everything about us is life—the dewdrop and glacier, the atom and the sun. We know all this is life and without being able to define it we may belfeve. With- out being able to define the term God, there- in belleving that God fore, exists. The bel he di one is justified [ whom all things will return. To believe iu God is one thing, but to believe in the Bible i8 quite another. The Bible is sacred. It is the political and meral constitution of the world, It 1§ eternal because it comes from God. The Bible represents the Mosalo law, the poetry of Israel. Its destiny is not that intended by its authors. It was never intended that it should become a firebrand in the schools of the theologians, It was never intended to bring discord Into the world as it aid throughs out the ages, The Rible ls to lsrael a coves nant_hook, a family chronicle, 1¢ belief in the Bible means the eoncrete attitude toward every line the book contains them you must belleve It whally, Tn that case the Creater is made o eontradiot himself, for the fvst and seeand ohapters of Cencsls do hot Agree.
