MOW MITCHELL'S RETURN
TO STANFORD RUMORED
Crack Los Angeles Athlete Elig
ible to Play on Varsity
Another Season
PALO ALTO, July 20.—The lnltlnl
bombshell of tho coming football sea
son was hurled yesterday, when It was
learned on the best of authority that
"Mow" Mitchell, last year's cardinal
captain, would again return to college I
to take a post-graduate course. As
Mitchell is eligible to play another
year with the 'varsity, it Is a safe
bet that he will afain be found in
the ranks of the cardinal booters. The
authority for this statement Is ono of
Mitchell's closest friends, who Is a
recipient of several letters from him
since he loft for Kurope In company
with hla brother, Standtsh.
"Mow" Mitchell is one of tho great
est Rugby players that ever donned
uniform on the coast, and was one of
■ the stars selected by Manager Mc-
Mahon of tho "Wallabies as possessing
International possibilities. Ho gradu
ated in tho .spring of the year and
announced his definite retirement from
the gridiron and college life, but sev
eral of his closest friends have been
jirging him to reconsider his decision
In order to give tho Cardinal 'varwtty
fifteen some tingo of veteran blood.
When Mitchell entered college four
«rears ago he did not set the world on
fire as an athletic light, showing very
little promise during his freshman
year. He did make an effort to win
spurs as a hurdler and high jumper,
but the figures attained by him in these
departments were too high and low re
spectively for publication.
In his second year Coach Lanagan
picked him out of a squad of raw foot
ball recruits as likely material, and the
development of the Lqs -Angeles boy
was like that of a weed, though it
lasted longer. At inside five-eighths
"Mitchell hna no peef on tlie coast, be
ing nn Invaluable cog in a passing
•wheel, a sure tackier and speedy and
dazzling dodgy-runner. Furthermore,
he carries a level head on a sturdy pair
of ■houldem and Is always thinking
and his body rapldlly responds to the
action of his brains.
, As a baseball player Mitchell has also
earned honors for his college. Both
at the third corner and in the short
field ho has worn the cardinal sweater,
and he is considered one of the best
players ever turned out from Stanford
farm. He was one of the most popular
men at Stanford during his four years'
residence, and the news of his probable
return to the university will be wel
comed by every undergraduate study-
Ing there. , ' •>■:./■■'••'-:.■.

TRAGEDY PRESENTS
TOUCH OF PATHOS
Only Four People Attend Once
Wealthy Broker's Funeral
in Little Room
[Associated Press]
CHICAGO, July 20.—Perhaps the
most pathetic feature of the tragedy o£
last Friday, in which Mrs. Emma
Young was shot and Charles W. Rig
don killed himself was presented yes
terday at the funeral of the once
wealthy mining broker.
The service was read in a little
darkened room in the rear of an un
dertaking establishment, and only four
persons were present, three of these
being relatives. Two carriages fol
lowed the hearse to Graceland ceme
tery, where the body was cremated.
Mrs. Young's final letter to Kigdon
indicated she considered he had mis
treated her in various ways, had de
nounced her as a "leech" and had told
her he had no further confidence in
her. In return she told him that he
had "put her through paces that had
made drinking idiots of stronger wo
men than she," that she did not care
for his love or that of anybody else in
the future and that he evidently had
"got tired of her mush."
The letter then says:
"I am pretty firm in my decision to
never again invite nor tolerate your
contempt."
Mrs. Young's husband, from whom
she had lived apart for some years,
it is now believed, was Alexander C.
Young, a lawyer of Hoboken, N. $.
BROKER MADE FREQUENT
CALLS ON MRS. YOUNG
Allege Couple Figured in Several
Exciting Episodes
WASHINGTON; July 20.—1t was
learned today that Charles W. Rig
don was a frequent visitor at the home
of Mrs. Alexander Young when the lat
ter lived in a fashionable section of
this city a little more than a year
ago. After living here for about three
months Mrs. Young suddenly disap
peared after an exciting episode in
which Rigdon figured. Rigdon arrived
at the house one night, it is alleged,
and found the place dark.
There was no response to his re
peated ringings and he smashed all the
windows within reach of his cane,
ltigdon disappeared before the police
arrived.
Soon afterward Mrs. Young aban
doned the house, leaving her furni
ture. She wrote to one neighbor she
had bought a house in a Maryland
suburb and to another that she had
met with reverse's in the stock market
and was going to California. Later
letters were received from her from
California.
Ktgdon and Mrs. Young are alleged
to have figured in another exciting
Incident. One nisht he was walking
along the street with Mrs. Young
when they met a negro, who, Rigdon
thought, insulted Mrs. Young. He shot
the negro, who was not badly hurt.
Rigdon was not arrested.
MRS. YOUNG RELAPSE^;
WOUND MAY PROVE FATAL
CHICAGO, July 20.—Mrs. Alexander
Young, shot by Charles Higdon last
Friday afternoon just beforo Rigdon
met his death by a bullet wound, has
suffered a release and physicians de
clare it is Jikely the wound will provo
fatal.
NEW YORK RACING LAW IS
EASY TO EVADE, SAYS COOK
SAN FRANCISCO, July 20.—Judge
Carroll Cook has returned from New
York and states that the law recently
enacted by the legislature at Albany
is as full of holes as was the anti-race
track law that was passed a year ago
in California.
Cook says he made a technical ex
amination of the New York law and
expresses it as his opinion that should
the race track men carry their case to
the courts it would be clearly proved
unconstitutional. He looks for an early
victory in the courts and the return
of racing in New York.
100%
MAN
That is what 20th century
methods demand. Drunk
ards and drones have no
place in business today
"We must have a 100% man for this position," said the owner of one of our largest bus
iness enterprises only a few days ago. This remark was addressed to the applicant—a man
of unquestioned ability, one in the prime of life, well qualified otherwise for any position of
trust— but he was a slave to the drink habit. This discounted him in the brain market. He
was NOT a 100% man.
If you are a drinking man and have a wife and family, think how much more happy
and contented they would be if they knew you would never come home intoxicated again.
We have plenty of living evidence right here in our city, some of whom have given us
permission to refer any poor unfortunate to them.
Everything is strictly confidential. You come here and see no one but the doctor, man
' ager and nurse, and in just three days go our feeling like a new man, with every desire for
liquor gone forever.
Now, if you are a drinking man, and want to stop, write or call at the Three-Day Neal
Cure, at 945 South Olive St., Los Angeles, Cal., for their book, contract and bond.

OPEN-AIR GYM IS
PLAN AT STANFORD
Foundations of Building Wrecked
by 1906 Quake Will Be
Abandoned
When the handsome million-dollar
gymnasium of Stanford university was
destroyed in April, 1906, when it was all
but completed, tHe loss at the uni
versity was keenly felt. Ever since
the athletes at the institution have
been working under a handicap be
cause of the meager apparatus con
tained in the old wooden structure.
Now, however, it woukl seem that the
disaster was a blessing in disguise, as
Stanford universtty is to have one of
the most modern and unique gym
nasiums in the world.
While it has not been definitely an
nounced, it is practically understood
that the old foundations of the de
stroyed gymnasium will never be used
for a new gym structure, but that the
trustees will build a shelter or sroup
of shelters which will comprise an
open-air gym which will be different
from anything hitherto attempted by
universities. The experts who have
been consulted in regard to the
project are enthusiastic, and state that
an open-air gym at Stanford would be
far superior to the old-style affair.
The excellent all-year climate of the
i"alo Alto farm will be taken advan
tage of and the athletes permitted to
work in the open air, rain or shine.
Dad Moulton, the veteran trainer of
the Cardirtals, is enthusiastic over the
plans, and believes it will Increse the
standard of track athletes and follow
ers of all other branches of sports. He
furthermore believes that the men will
turn out for gym work at the uni
versity and train, whereas now many
do not do so because of the limited
apparatus.
FHKSI.KY ADVOCATKS IT
Coach George Presley of the football
and baseball squads is another sup
porter of the new gym idea, and prac
tically all of the varsity men expect
great things when the affair is com
pleted.
Plans for the gym are In a formative
state at the present time. President
David Starr Jordan, who is strongly in
favor of the scheme, has had the p'ann
under advisement for some time. He
ia In Europe, on his sabbatical leave,
and will not return to the campus until
the first of the year. It Is not ex
pected anything will be done before
this time.
As planned, the new gym will be
built In the form of a largo square,
the architecture being smaller to that
of the quadrangles of the academic
buildings.
The main feature will be a cinder
path under cover, shelters for ap-
paratus work and drill grounds. In
the center of the quadrangle the space
will be used, In all probability, for
football, soccer and rugby, and for
baseball and lacrosse. A large con
crete swimming tank is also contem
plated in addition to numerous sets of
s/iowers. The location for the new
addition to the university is prob
lematical, but will probably be as near
to the main buildings of the university
as is practicable, possibly on the site
of the existing gymnasium. The near
ness of the gymnasium is necessary to
admit of classwork during the regular
routine of academic study.
CONDON FAVORS PARI
MUTUEL BETTING FORM
Word comes from Chicago that no
more betting will ever be attempted
in the state of Illinois. This is the
direct opinion of none other than John
Condon, owner of the Harlem ran 1
track. In further discussing the rac
ing' situation in Illinois he said that
he believed the pari rnutuel machines
would solve the matter, and that they
would be approved by both the public
and the authorities.
In a final summing up hi- laid:
"Open betting is a thing nf the pant,
but should I start up again r shall cer
tainly favor the machines. Local con
ditions are In such chaotic state at
present that there is no telling which
way the cat will jump."
As a matter of fact there is ;i great
deal of interest and anxiety !>.inj; ej
hibited as to the probable direction of
the cat's Jump, for a Latoniu there are
at present over 300 horses waiting for
word from Chicago. Should the Katen
bo thrown open there will be no lack
of horses, as a great many turfmen
are delaying shipments fur definite
news.
