ADVERTISEMENTS. NO BURNS IN ELECTRO- CHEMIC TREATMENT NOTED HOUNDS WILL COMPETE at Coursing Meeting Fresno Promises Excitement., LeTal ey Indications Are That the Dogs Will Have Hard Running. AR el Special Dispatch to The Call. FRESNO, Dec. 15.—If present indica- tions serve for forecast the open plains meeting which will be inaugurated here to-morrow morning will go down in cours- ing history as a most successful one. Reports from the grounds show that the conditions for open coursing are all that | can be expected, and better than the In- terstate Coursing Club has had at any ‘prcvio\xs meet. The grounds are within easy reach and are so level that a course can be seen for a great distance. Hares | are plentiful and exceedingly strong and the dog that goes through the stake will know that it has had some hard coursing. | Roman Athlete, the winner of this vear's Waterloo at St. Louis, has a host of backers, though many of the entries are well played.

ACTOR MILLWARD ENTERS SUIT AGAINST ALCAZAR Management Will Fight the Case on the Ground That Actor Proved Incompetent. * Charles A. Millward, the deposed lead- ing man at the Alcazar Theater, brought suit in the United States District Court vesterday, through his attorneys, Bien & Jackson, against Fred Belasco, Samuel Thall and M. E. Mayer, lessees of the theater, to recover $2090 salary due him for the unexpired period of his engage- ment. An attachment was also issued on the theater and a copy was served upon M. H. de Young, the owner. Millward alleges in his complaint that he is a resident and citizen of Birming- | ham, England, a subject cf King Edward VII; that he entered into a contract with | the Alcazar management for the season of 1902-08 as leading man at a salary of $115 per week, commencing September 153 that he was discharged without cause or reason on December 7, and that he is ready and willing to continue the engage- ment. “We will fight the case,” sald Samuel Thall last night, “as Millward was dis- charged for incompetency, and that he must prove competent was part of hie contract. We were to bc the sole judges of his competency.

GADET CORP3 15 INDORSED Largest in History of the University of California. The following is the report that has been sent to Benjamin Ide Wheeler, pres- ident of the University of California, as to the recent muster and inspection of the cadet corps of that institution recent- 1y by Colonel George W. Bauer and staff: Dear Sir: In accordance with the custom observed since the organization of our assocla- tion, I, as commander of that assoclation, made the semi-annual inspection of the Uni- versity Cadets on Monday, December 1. Ac- companying me at the inspection Wwere the fol- lowing retired officers of the Cadet Corps ot the University: Colonel Newell Vanderbilt, Lieutenant Colonel R, H. Kelley, Lieutenants Frank Otis and John A. McGee, and Lisuten- ant J. L. Gallagher, Cadet Corps University ot Wisconsin, 1 respectfully submit to you my report of this inspection, which report is con- currred in by all the officers who accompanied me at the inspection, We find that the corps at present is the largest in the history of the university. The exercises on the day of inspection consisted of battalion parade by the first batt jon, T mental inspection, which included the entire corps, and battalion drill by the first bat- talion, The’ battalion parade was of a high order. The appearance of the battalion was steady, and the movements in the manual of arms were executed with a steadiness and simultaneity that would do credit to our regular soldiers. At the Inspection we carefully observed the carriage and general bearing of the men. We were pleased to note that the equipments were At_post 1 minute. Axminster, show. 1-2. Start good.

SR ey The brown gelding is now trained by Vic Gil- bert and showed marked improvement, Jake Marklein's colors were seen for the first time at the meeting, when Brissac went to the post, selling price of $700 by W. R. Larzalere, the | former owner of the Remsen stable, No | change of ownership, sure indication of the seriousness with which | military work at the university is now taken, | and the spirit with which the students enter | into their military exercises, The few movements in battalion drill for| Which there remained time were sufficient to show that this difficult part of the drill regu- | lations has not been neglected. Both officers | and non-commissioned officers, by their prompt commands_and ready executlon of those of | their superior officers, proved that they under- | stood the movements of the battalion. The assembly and dismissal of the com- | panies were excellent e former was prompt and soldlerlike and the latter without un- neceseary noise or confusion. In addition to the inspection of the regi- ment we also Inspected the records of the department. The system of keeping these | records is complete and ready, of accese. Every | male student who enters the university is ac- counted for during his stay. So that at all times the department knows who are subject to military duty, those that are excused there- from and the reasons therefor. A concise yet complete record of every student’s military | work during his entire college course is kept. The abolition of all examinations, except for | promotions, is made possible by the complete- ness of the records kept and the idea seems to work well, as. a man does not rely ;solely on his ability to pass a written examination, FEW ARE DELINQUENT. The records of the delinquents were a reve- lation to us. From these we learned that rarely is a man absent unexcused, and thuse excused are excused by the surgeon, those so excused being -few as compared with former years. The percentage of absentees has falien | greatly. In former years it ranged from 15 | to 20 per cant, while now it averages about S per cent, and never goes over ten per cent. All things considered we think that (he cadet corps of to-day ls superior to that of any former year. It drills better, its dis- cipline fg greater, and what is most wonder- ful of all ¢ it has an esprit de corpe. The men- actually take: an interest in the work, the same as they do in any other col- lege work. We believe that, as a whole, mil- itary exercises are as popular at the unive sity as any other course. The students have begun to' realize that drill is, in reality, a class exercise, and that they can no more neglect It thari_they can dny other class work At any rate there seems to be so much willing- ness among ‘the students that it is difficult to Imagine that the drill is compulsory. And ‘when it is considered that the students in way repaying drilling_are only fn a small What the Government is expending for thelp education and that the discipline they are undergolng is but in preparation for ‘the djs. cipline they will encountér In the vocations they may follow on quitting college, it does | adjusted in true military fashion, which is an unfailing sign of the good soldier. We ob- served that the men, with ome or two excep- tions, wore the reguiation military collar, and without exception, black shoes. From our ex- perience as officers of the Cadet Corps we know the regulation In respect to these two articles of apparel to be most difficult of en- forcement. The general observance of it speaks well for the discipline of the corps. In the freshman battalions we observed that the men are wearing the regulation army cap. We lieve this to be proper. The uniform and equip- Fment should. in so far as it is practicable, be kept up to the standard of the army, as should also the discipline of the corps. REVIEW EXCELLENT., The review was excellent, considéring all | things. The first battalion marched well, and the lines. while passing the reviewing stand, were very good. We were agreeably surprised at the marching of the freshman battalions. When we consider that these battallons are composed of men who have had but twenty- four drills. each drill being of but one hour's duration, it speaks marvels both for &:e wil- lingness and spirit of the and the eapabil - ity of the department, e doubt whether any other body of men, in so short a time, could orogress so far, and we believe thls to i not seem so wonderful that,they should enter into their military work with ngn. and determination. R ene s to the head of the department an: we might say would be inadequate’ praiee ot one who devotes his entire time and attention to the affalrs of his department. His success with the department is not greater than his interest and perseverance deserve, and we |, trust that he may see many years as military instructor and that his future work may be as fruitful @s has his past.

Jockey Club shall have power to disqualify, | fine, suspend, expel or rule off. 1 If any case occur which is not, or which is | alleged not to be provided for in the rules, it shall be determined by the stewards of the New California Jockey Club In such manner | as they think just and conformable to the | usages of the turf. | Any meeting held under a license from the New California Jockey Club much be run and conducted under the New California Jockey Club rules. | 1 BURGLARS WRECK SAFE BUT FIND NO MONEY Cracksmen Secrete Themselves in a Building for a Hard and Profit- less Job.
