In the collisfon Richard Curran, the coach- man, was thrown from his seat and dragged twenty feet, while the carriage was smashed. The horses ran away after kicking free from the wrecked buggy and left Curran stunned, scratched and bruised In the street. Mrs. Moller jumped to the street just in time, and was clear of the car and car- riage, suffering only from the jar and ground. She hastened to learn the condi- tion of the coachman and her team, and then repaired to the Ebell Society's rooms, opposite which the collision o curred.

CLEVELAND, June 29.—Lou Dillon this afternoon broke all records' for a mlie to wagon for trotters, going the distance in 2:04%. The race was at a matinee of the Gentlemen’s Driving Club at Glenville track. The horse was driven by her own- er, C. K. G. Blllings. The race was made with the encouragement of a runner, which went ahead about five lengths and which maintained that position until the three-quarters pole. The mare had been going like a veteran all the distance. At the three-quarters pole the runner was pulled to allow Lou Dillon to come up alongside. The stretch was entered at great speed. The mile was made in 2:04%, the horse finishing strong and seemingly ready to cover the distance a second time. The new record beats that made by the same horse two weeks ago, 2:06%. The fractional time was :31%, 1:03%, 1:3¢ and 2:04%. — e LEAGUE MANAGERS MEET. Los Angeles and San Francisco Not 2 to Be Dropped.

After making the tour of the northern cities the California clubs will return home and open first with Se- attle and Spokane. The. Portland club was the subject of a great deal of discussion, but no action was taken concerning it. The other clubs do not favor retaining that city if Salt Lake is able to make a satisfactory show- ing.

Carries Disappointment Into the Home of Her Parents. S5E Clobek Pretty Heiress Follows in the Foote steps of Her Brother, Who Eloped With Daisy Parrott. R Gt A telegram received in the city yester- day briefly announced the marriage of Beryl Whitney, the beautiful daughter of Millionaire J. Parker Whitney of Rock- lin, to Thomas H. Graydon, the famous Harvard fullback. The news of the young lady’s marriage came unexpectedly to her many friends in this city, where she spent much of her time prior to en= tering upon her college career. The surprise was manifested particular- Iy by those who were intimately acquaint= ed with the members of her family., who are now enjoying the summer at Monte- rey, and for the reason that it was known that the parents of the young woman had often looked forward to her wedding and contemplated the extravagant manner in which the happy event would be cele- brated. The parents of Beryl are very wealthy and extremely indulgent with their chil- ‘dren, of which they have a number, in- cluding Parker Whitney, whose recent elopement with Daisy Parrott startied San Francisco society and furnished ma- terial for gossip among the younger swagger set for several weeks thereafter. AGAIN DISAPPOINTED. Hardly had this event been forgotten before the parents were advised of their favored daughter’s marriage, and again are the Whitneys senior disappointed in their anticlpations of celebrating the wedding in the family in a manner befit- ting thelr wealth and social standing. The meager news of the wedding in the East readily recalls an affair of several months ago, in which Graydon and Miss Whitney figured most conspicuously. On December 19 the papers contained a tei- egraph story from New York giving an account of an adventure of a trio of young lady pupils at Miss Ely's sehool for girls in Riverside. According to the story the young ladies had fallen under the displeasure of Miss Ely for some infractions of rules and had been “rusticated” under chaperonage of a teacher. They were staying at Senator | Bartram’s palatial home in Sharon, Conn., Registrations will be coming in every day for a | week or more and the total will be at least 100 more than last year. The appropriation of $12,000 for farmers’ in- stitutes that was made by the last Legislature will be available on July 1 and already the College of Agriculture is preparing to conduct the institutes. next week to the different agricuiture centers for the purpose of assisting the farmers in the problems that confront them.

Barnes Declares He Does Not Remember Stealing Former Landlady’s Valuables. OAKLAND, June 29.—“I am insane, your Honor,” was Willlam E. Barnes’ re- sponse to-day in the Police Court when he was called upon to plead to a charge of stealing 3%, a 3250 gold watch and a pair of opera glasses from Mrs. Annie Hughes, residing at 1110 Jefferson street. “You may be crazy,” replied Judge Mortimer Smith, “but you will be ex- amined first on this charge of grand lar- ceny. Hearing set for July 1.” Barnes, who is a commerclal® traveler, had rooms at Mrs. Hughes' residence. She missed the valuables after Barnes had left town a few weeks ago. He re- turned Saturday, telephoned to his for- mer landlady and the detectives arrested him. The watch was recovered. “I don’t remember taking the things,” sald Barnes. ‘‘You see, I lose my senses after I have been drirking hard and I suppose the liquor caused me to steal, but it is all a blank to me.” —_————— REMEMBERS LONG LIST OF RELATIVES IN WILL Petition Filed for the Probate of the Testament of William T.

Soon after Thanksgiving day Thomas Graydon, Harvard's fuilback, took up quarters at Sharon's hotel. He had been a frequert caller at the Riverside Drive school. APPLIES FOR LICENSE. Abraham George Perkins, a Seattle vouth and friend of Graydon, was alsoe attentive to the trio. In a few days it be- came known that the friend of Graydon had applied to the Town Clerk of Sharon for a license authorizing Gravdon to marry one of the trio of schoolgirls, but on giving her age as 19 years he had been refused under the Connecticut law. Next morning Mr. Bartram found a ladder under the window of a room of his girl visitor. It then developed that the enamored Graydon had pleaded with one of the girls to elope with him but she had refused to do so. Miss Ely later confirmed the story. She said the trio of girls had been sent to Sharon as a penance. Graydon finally admitted he had en- gaged in a friendly -chat, secretly, with the object of hia devotion but would not admit that he had persuaded her to elope. The story did not at the time mention the name of Miss Whitney, but some days after it was learned that she was the ob- Ject of Graydon's attentions and that the young lady's encouragement of her wooer had been no secret among her school chums for some time. —— Goes From Jail to Prison.
