This| hero of the cinder path is Joe Pearson, crack sprinter in particular and enemy | of records in general. The 100-yard, the | 220-yard and the 440-vard dashes ail| look alike to Pearson, and the mar\'el-i ous thing about it is that he negotiates them all with consummate ease. Pearson came heralded as the fast- | est man of the Washington track team, | but with records that did not shade| those of such Californians as Cadogan, | Snedigar and Abadie. It was taken for | | granted he would give all these men a | rub, though not enough to beat them. When Snedigar just nosed him out in the 100-yard dash this morning and he walked away from Cadegan in the 220- | yard and 440-yard dashes, besides lop- | ping off a fifth of a second In the one | !und nearly equaling the other record, | there was a general scurrying to find Sprinter Pearson Comes Out of the North to Creat a Profound Sensation on Berkeley Oval. | | fall back and Snedigar moved up.

He is a sturdily | built little fellow, much after the style| of $nedigar and Abadie. While in ac-| tion he seems to move with ease, and | his spurt takes the heart out of his op-| ponent. Pearson and Tibballs of Washington started against Cadogan, Abadie, Sned- igar and Jones of California in the 100- vard dash. Pearson and Cadogan shot to the front and stayed there the first fifty vards. Then Cadogan began to son still had a lead of a foot or two when Snedigar came up like a quartér- horse in the last ten yards and struck the tape first, Pearson second, Cadogan third, Tibballs fourth, Jones fifth.

A foolish desire to accumulate wealth for the benefit of posterity, has led to the physical undoing of thousands.” Health is lost in the mad pursuit of riches, . .disenses-are contracted, the vitalizing, nutritious properties of the blood are almost exhausted by demands of the nerv- _ ous system, and it is little wonder that children born of such ‘parents are sickly, weak, anzmic and illy developed. Bet- -ter {o be born and healthy than rich and sickly. Geod bl is the best legacy, for that means strong, vigorous bodies, well nourished. systems and nerves, muscles and all the machinery of the body in perfect condition, When handicapped by some inherited disease, not only is life’s struggle made harder, but existence . "betomes a Iin%ering misery, and even if blessed with riches, sickness is a hindrance to their “enjoyment. Through the blood, diseases are carried from one generation to another. Pa- rents- transmit them to their children, and so it goes on for'years unless the taint is re- moved from the blood. Cancerous Ulcers, . Rleumatism, Blood Poison, Scrofulous Sores” and- Swellings, Skin Eruptions of various -kinds, are all evidences of a de- raved and poisoned blood. “ Like begets fi;,&". is true of the vegetable world and is trge also of the animal kingdem. We Enow that certzin seeds produce certain ‘plants, gnd sickly parents or those in whose - blood is a taint of some old family ailment " ur blood poison ; diseases are apt to develop in their chiidren, either in infancy or later on in life. If you can’t leave a legacy of - riches, at leasf start them out in life with _puire and unpolluted blood; this they can with reason expect, for it is their rightful inherit- ance: . Often some old chronic illness that might have been uprooted and driven out of the blopd is neglected, and posterity is made to snger the consequences of this neglect. If you have any disease for which bad blood is responsible, to neglect it is almost a crime—you are unjust to yourself and false to your offspring to do so. Purify your blood; get rid of the taint and leave to others good blood which, after all, is the best legacy. No remedy ever discovered is so reliable in diseases of the blood as S. S. 8. Experience and a thor- ough test have proven its efficacy. It has been in use for nearly fifty years and has been INHERITED SCROFULA.

It is certainly better than all dootors for diseases ocaused by impure blood, whether inherited or otherwise, In addition to be- ing much less expensive, it does its work thoroughly and without fail.

CHICAGO, April 30.—Entries al- ready received by the conference col- lege committee indicate” that one re- sult of making the annual meet open to .all Western Colleges will be the presence of the best athletes of the Pacific Slope at Marshall Field on June 4. Stanford University officials have sent word that they will send a team which will include Dunn, who ran a quarter mile in :50; Hyde, who has put the shot 45 feet, and Dole, who has a record of 12 fet 2 inches in the pole vault. Plaw, the hammer throw- er from the University of California, has also sent word he will enter the | contests. In addition to applications from the California universities the committee has been informed athletes will be sent from the universities of Nebraska, Drake, Mo., and South Dakota, Beloit and Knox colleges. Entries will close on May, 15. : . LS P caught the time at 9 4-5 seconds, but the timers finally compromised on 10 1-5 seconds. A fifth of a second was dragged off the collegiate record by Pearson in the 220-yard dash, when he did the dis- tance in :22 1-5. Dunn of Stanford made that distance on a straightaway track in .:22 2-5, and Cadogan, Abadie and Barpes of California have all done the same. It is conceded that Pear- gon would have done much better had he pot turned his head repeatedly to watch Cadogan. He did not seem to be crowded at all and finished five yards in the lead, when he might have trebled it and accomplished :22. Thompson of Washington, the only other entry, finished third. In the 440-yard dash Pearson had Cadogan and Kern of California and ponents. He put them all away easily and won in :50 3-5, a fifth of a second slower than Dunn’s Stanford record. If Pearson had been crowded and fresh for the race he could have lowered the record without any trouble. Hackley of California won the mile run in 4:4% 3-5; Newhall, second; Mec- Croy of Washington, third; Moody and Lyon of California, fourth and fifth, re- spectively, and Twitchell of Washing- ton, sixth. The two Washington men held the lead until the last lap, when the others forged ahead and stayed to the finish. . The half-mile went to Edwards of California; Robert Pearson, second, and Mijshler, third. Time, 2:04. Twitch- ell, the other Washington entry, fin- ished fifth. Powell of California won the 120-yard hurdle race in :16 3-5; Frei of Califor- nia, second, and Hill of Washington, third. In the 220-yard hurdles Meany of California won; Hume of California, second, and Hill of Washington, third. Time, :27 2-5. Washingten's man, Rex Smith, did not get into the hurdles. sharps Washington won the relay race. The Washington men were Thompson, Tibballs and the two Pearsonis, while California had Adler, Howard, Thomas and Brainard. California had a lead ot forty yards at the second lap, but through a mistake Howard lost it ail. The time was 2:36, Abadie achieved gomething in the record-breaking line by taking a fifth- second off the fifty-yard record in a trial against time. The little man plunged toward the tape at a terrific rate and negotiated the distance in 5 2-5 seconds, the previous record hav- ing been 6 3-5 seconds. Measurement of Abadie's last stride showed he had skipped over a distance of 10 feet 1 inch. Sperry of California, who could’ only throw the hammer 133 feet at Stanford, showed his return to form by hurling it 147 feet 6 inches and winning against McDonald of Washington, whose best ‘was 130 feet § inches. Elliott of Califor- nia threw 117 feet 3% inches, finishing third. Cooley of California and Grant of ‘Washington tied at 6 1-100 feet in the high jump, Sperry taking third.

Through a series of unforesesn mishaps on the Oakland estuary course the race between the varsity crews was not held until nearly 7 o'clock last evening. Stanford University and University of California fought their-first battles en the water, and the sturdy young men, from Berkeley carried off the laurels. The crack crew of the University of ‘Washington did not start, owing to one of the series of accidents which de- layed the regatta until dusk. The three varsity crews lined up early in the afternoon rand were sent away to a perfect start. The crews had pulled but eight strokes when the Washing- ton men stopped rowing and signaled that an accident had happened. The investigation, it was found that the sliding seat of the bow bar in the ‘Washington boat had broken. After a consultation it was decided to send the boat back to the boat- house, where repairs could be effected. The officlals and the spectators settled down patiently to await the return of the boat. At 5:45 o'clock President Wheeler, the referee, said the race would be started” at 6 o'clock with Stanford and Berkeley as contenders if Washington did not appear. The northern ecrew sent back word that they could not repair their boat, but that they would row the winner on Monday. This was agreed to. The two crews then went to the start- ing line. A second start was effected, | but the race was again stopped, this time by Stanford.- The stroke of the cardinal crew broke his oar in the extra | tion. This necessitated a further delay while a launch went to the boathouse, another oar. ~ In the meantime an oarlock on the | Berkeley barge went wrong and had | to be repaired. A start was finally effected and the race was on. Berkeley was first away, | as usual, and settled down to a steady Stanford rowed about twenty-elght. Berkeley had opened up a lead of about two lengths at the drawbridge. The | Berkeley crew were rowing well within | themselves throughout. At half the | distance Stanford increased its stroke to thirty-two and gained half a length [ on her rivals. As they neared the fin- | ish the Berkeley men drew away again, | winning by three open lengths. The mile and & half, straightaway, was cov- | ered in 9:58. The Stanford crew rowed a plucky | race throughout, | face of sure defeat. After the race | Berkeley was congratulated on her vic- tery, while Stanford was felicitated no less heartily on her excellent showing. The Stanford crew was organized only | ten days ago, and the cardinal coach, Much to the surprise of the track | Professor A. W. Smith, formerly of | Cornell, was praised for what he had accomplished with the men in that short time. D. D. L. McGrew, a famous Harvard stroke, was an interested spectator at the regatta. He was loud in his praise of W. H. Dole, the number three of the Stanford crew. Mr. McGrew has given the Berkeley men the benefit of his wide knowledge of watermanship and | they have profited by it. When the freshman crews rowed their races carly in the afternoon there was a strong wind blowing and a chop- py sea on. This disconcerted the Stan- ford men, who have been accustomed to smooth water. Berkeley rowed completely away from them, finishing a quarter of a mile ahead, The time was 11:32 for Berkeley and 13:50 for Stanford.. Despite the unfortunate delays the | regatta was a marked success and this event will undoubtedly be fostered by the universities. Upon President ‘Wheeler's first visit to Stanford, some .years since, he took for his subject “Intercollegiate Rowing.” He was prominently identified with the sport in the Bast and ‘his enthusiasm has never waned. He has an able colleague in Professor Smith of Stanford.
