FfIILEDFOHHEGOHDS joi: iwtche* i xable to better HIS MARK TO A HIGH SILKY. NO BETTER WITH WAGON. GOOD TIME MADE BY THE BIG BLACK IX BOTH AT TEMPTS. TEAM TRIAL WAS ABANDOAED. Robert .1 and Gentry Refused to Pace Together in Any Kind of Form. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 27. — Joe 'Patchen's record trial today attracted to the Driving and Fair association track 6,000 people, who witnessed an excellent exhibition of speed, although the big black failed to place a new world's record to his credit. Patchen had been substituted in the place of the ailing Star Pointer to go against the hi Eh wheel sulky mark of 2.0£ l i made by Johnson and his own wagon record of 2:04V 4 . Paced by a runner he tried first in the sulky and after scoring twice started with a fine burst of speed, making the quarter in :31, the half In 1:02% and the three-quarters in 1:34%- The last quarter was slow and the mile was finished in 2:07%. After a rest he went against the four wheel wagon record and paced the mile in 2:06^, which is better than any previous rec ord except his Joliet record of 2:04%. Two races and an unfinished stake event, the 2:12 pace, filled out the card. Lady Nottingham with two heats from yesterday, won the stake after a hard battle with Woodford Jay. As usual the favorites had comparatively easy victories and the fight for second money furnished the excitement. Joe Bailey won the 2:22 pace, taking the first two heats easily, though owing to a break in the third he narrowly es caped being distanced. Alves had an easy thing in the 2:40 trot, never being troubled by the field. Nobby won sec ond money from the Axtell colt, Acts Tell. A cake walk finished the day.

Robert J and Gentry Would Xot Pace Together. NVSHVILLE, Term., Oct. 27.— This after noon more than 5,000 people were at Cum berland park to witness the race between Robert J and John R Gentry, and also to see the pair attempt to lower the double team pacing record. The truck was smooth, the flay perfect, and no wind. But the track lacked one thing, elasticity. The long-con tinued drought seemed to have absorbed all the moisture, leaving the track below the sur face hard The two horses £ot off well, and it was a race in each heat until the stretch was reached when Robert J broke badly each nine. The large crowd was enthusiastic. Summary: John R Gentry (Bowne) 1 1 Kobert J (Geerst - i Time, 2:07%, 2:05%. The attempt to drive the pair against the double team record failed. Several efforts ■were made to get them to go, but both broke bo .badly and frequently that the trial was abandoned. Latonla Races.

BI\GLED BY SLOANE. American Jockey Should Have Won an English Race. LONDON, Oct. 27.— The race for the Cam bridgeshire stakes at the Newmarket Hough ton meeting today, was won by Sir W. In graham's Comfrey. James R. Keene's St. Cloud 11. was second, and the Lorillard- Beresford stable's Sandia third. A dispatch to the Times from Newmarket says: "It was superior jockeyship alone that enable Comfrey to win. Sloane, who road St. Cloud 11., ap peared not to notice that Comfrey was com ing, and to be under the impression that he won. The finish was so close that heads only separated the first four. Whether Sandia with a stronger jockey would have won is an open question, as he had beaten Comfrey very easily for the Brighton cup. It is remarkable that two of the three Americans running should have been so near repeating Foxhall's victory. The losers were inclined to blame the jockey, and to a certain extent they were right. He ought to have made assurance doubly sure; but he rode a good race, and was not beaten through incapacity, but because of his mis taken idea that he had won." SHOWIXG THEIR COLORS. Already Friends of Ski-u-niali Dis play the Maroon and Gold. Football enthusiasts are laying in a supply of maroon and old gold, with now and then some one who thinks more of the cardinal. It will not be talking idly to say that every other person on the streets Saturday will wear the colors of either Minnesota or Wis consin. The partisans of the two universities have had their loyal blood stirred to the bot tom, and are aroused to a fever pitch. It will be color everywhere, and between the "Shi-U-Mah" of the Minnesota boys and the "U-Rah-Rah" of the Wisconsin visitors. Min neapolis will experience plenty of noise during the day. The Minnesota team continues its secret practice, having about thirty-five minutes of work at the old ball park every afternoon, and about twenty minutes of signal practice fox the 'varsity alone at the armory. The men are getting into splendid condition, and feel that they are ready to do their best. The Madison team arrives tomorrow morn- Ing, and will be quartered at the West, with the high school team and the rooters who come along to attend the big athletic ball at the armory tomorrow evening, and to be on hand to cover any Minnesota money that may appear. Betting on the game is hovering around even money, with now and then a bet at odds that Wisconsin does not score, or vice versa. Two championship football games in one day and at the same place is a condition of affairs seldom experienced before in Minne apolis, but next Saturday Athletic park will have a game in both the morning and atter noon. The big university teams of Minnesota and Wisconsin play in the afternoon, and an Immense amount of interest is taken in the game. In the morning the champion high school teams of the state of Wisconsin and Minnesota will have their turn and will, in interest, be second only to the afternoon game. The contest this year is the second time that the South side and Madison schools have met. Last year the Madison boys gave the locals a most disastrous defeat at Madison, «.o the tune of 21 to 0. The game was a splendid exhibition, In fact better than the 'varsity game in the afternoon. This year it is con fidently expected and hoped that the result of last year will be reversed and that the local boys will come out on top. POORLY PLAYED CO.VTEST. Xewtown Eleven Defeated by the Harvard Team. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Oct. 27.— Harvard de feated the Newtown A. A. eleven at football this afternoon in a poorly played contest, the score being 22 to 0. Three of the four touch downs were made in the first half, but, while the Newtown men were pushed steadily back. It was simply because of the weight of the Harvard line and not through superior play- Ing. Touchdowns: Sullivan, Boal 2, Dibble. Goal: Cochran. Final score: Harvard, 22; Newtown A. A., 0. BEATEX BY TIGERS. Only Twelve Points Scored Against Elizabeth by Princeton. PRINCETON, N. J., Oct. 27.— Princeton defated the Elizabeth A. C. football team to day by a score of 12 to 0; The Tigers were somewhat weakened by the absence of Hille brand, Kelley and Bannard, who are on the retired list, with severe injuries. Amherst Beaten. AMHRRST, Mass.. Oct. 27.— Wesleyan de feated Ainherst at football today by a score of 14 to 0. CALL FROM- BURGLARS. Two Manses Entered, But the Thieves Quit Losers. Burglars were abroad again last night and broke into two residences, that of Leo Kazurka, 121 Viola street, and the home of O. A. Matheison, 769 Jackson street. In the latter place the thieves were interrupted in their op erations and took to flight, leaving be hind the% booty secured in the first robbery. The burglars entered the houses during the absence of the fam ilies, having doubtless planned the robberies and watched for a favor able opportunity to bring off the jobs. The robebry of the Kazurka home took place shortly after 8 o'clock. The occupants left the place for a neighborhood visit, and were gone an h< ur and a half. When they returned the front door was found unlocked, an entrance having been obtained by lr.eans of skeleton keys. The house had been ransacked from cellar to garret, and two dress coats, two pairs of trousers, a vest and three caps were missing. The burglars evidently went direct ly to Matheison's after the first rob bery. Mr. Matheison and his family left home to call upon friends at Tenth and Broadway shortly after supper and returned in about an hour. The first suspicious circumstance which they noticed when approaching the house was the closely drawn window . shades which had been left raised. Mr. Mathieson tried the front door, | but found it locked. Entering the house, however, he was startled by two men rushing down the stairs '. and past him to the kitchen and out i a rear dooj*. Beyond the fact that i the burglars were young men, Mr. Mathieson was unable to note their appearance, as they made no demon stration, seeming bent only on escape. They had left the kitchen door open 1 in case it became necessary to make '. a hurried exit. A search of the house [ showed that the thieves had doubtless been at work some time, as every • thing was in confusion. A purse con -1 taining $5 and a gold ring had been taken, but the burglars had left the • bundle taken from the other house which they had entered. Tie fac- /? — . Harrison \V. Units* Remains.

SETS FORTH CLEARLY THE LIKES ON WHICH IT IS CON DUCTED. GIRLS ARE ALLOWED TO LEAVE. If Tliey Are Over Eighteen They May Secure Their Liberty on Three Days' Notice. Judge Brill's court room was again filled yesterday with a crowd of citi zens men and women, who exhibit the keenest interest in the trial of the suit for $20,000 damages for alleged false Imprisonment of Saline Clewett against the House of the Good Shepherd. With the opening of the forenoon session, the work of securing the jury was resum ed, only two kaving been obtained on Tuesday. When completed the jury was composed of the following: J. M. Hambay, W. H. Howard, Samuel A. Frost, EdWin James, W. H. * Lesemann, Hans A. Jensen, Peter McDonald, C. P. Koerner, Frederick Low, John F. Gregory, E. E. Lincoln, Harry Longfellow. As soon as the jury had been sworn in, Attorney Butts made his opening address. In the course of his remarks Mr. Butts declared that the inmates of the House of the Good Shepherd were not supplied with sufficient and proper food and were subjected to ex cessive labor. Mr. Butts said the girls were served with chickory and a crust of bread in the mornings, and with mush and molasses at noon, with tea so weak it could hardly be distinguish ed from water, and bread and tea for supper. Prunes or baked apples they were occasionally favored with, and once in a while a few scraps of meat. The plaintiff's complaint does not make allegations concerning the nature of the food, but counsel for the defense allowed Mr. Butts to proceed without interruption. At the conclusion of his address, Mr. Butts called, as the first witness for the plaintiff, none other than the mother superior of the House of the Good Shepherd. This procedure was followed under the statute per mitting the plaintiff to call a witnesß for the defense and submit such wit ness to cross-examination before the defense can examine directly. The mother superior thereupon took the witness stand and Mr- Butts pro ceeded to interrogate her concerning the rules and regulations, and general nature of the institution. In substance the mother superior, who gave her testimony clearly and concisely, testified as follows: The plaintiff, Miss Clewett, was an inmate of the institution for about two years. All the mail addressed to in mates and all letters written by them to friends and relatives outside were inspected by the mother superior be fore delivered to the inmates or to leave the institution. The mother su perior was the sole judge of whether it was proper to deliver the mail or send letters out The mother superior testified that Miss Clewett once escaped from the House of the Good Shepherd by break ing a cloister window. She was gone three days and then came back volun tarily. Two girls were sent to find her and tell her to take off the black dress she wore, and the Good Shepherd society would give her a suitable garb for the world. The girls were not ask ed to bring Miss Clewett back. She came back of her own accord. Had she given the authorities three days notice of her desire to leave the House of the Good Shepherd, being over eigh teen years of age, she would, the mother superior declared, have been al lowed to go free. The mother superior denied that cor poral punishment of any of the inmates was allowed by her. But discipline had to be maintained."' "We keep a reformatory for wayward girls," explained the mother superior, "not an academy." The common punishment for improp er conduct consisted in compelling the inmates guilty of such misconduct, such as the use of obscene and blas phemous language, to wear a tick dress made of common gunnysack. If the language used was flagrantly ob scene, the woman or girl guilty of such offense was kept aloof from the others. All the inmates were given fictitious names. Mrs. Clewett was known as Loretta. Mr. Butts questioned the mother su perior closely concerning her own status in the institution and the cour tesies and respectful attitude of the inmates in her presence. The mother superior admitted that the inmates stood up whenever she passed through a room, as a token of respect for her- So did the other sisters. But they were not compelled to. She denied that she sat on a "throne" in the recreation room where she meets the inmates on Sundays. She sat in an ordinary chair slightly elevated above the level of the flour. Miss Clewett was an inmate of the criminal ward, where the washing and ! ironing were done. The mother su perior explained the practice that pre vailed of entrusting with the keys certain inmates who convinced the sls ! ters of the sincerity of their purpose j to reform. She was not sure that Miss I Clewett was not so trusted. The mother superior here took occa sion to say: "We do not lose sight of the fact that the House of the Good Shepherd is a | reformatory, and therefore the girls are not allowed to go at large, nor are the inmates of one class allowed to mingle with those of another. If they were, how could we preserve any distinction between the children, the younger girls and the Magdalenes?" Questioned concerning the escapes from the institution, the mother supe rior admitted there had been six dur ing the present year. She believed that some of these girls were present in the court room. "Who are they?" inquired Mr. Butts. "You will not not hear their true f names from me," responded the mother superior, in decided tones. "It is one of our rules to protect these girls and save their families."' The mother superior, in response to further questioning, said that if girls over eighteen years of age ran away from the institution the sisters did not notify the police and seek to have them brought back, but let them go. But if they "were under eighteen years the po lice were notified in order that they may be found and brought back if their parents so desire. The mother superior declared posi tively that all girls over eighteen yi^rs of age were at liberty to leave the House of the Good Shepherd upon giv ing three days' notice. Mr. Butts then questioned the mother superior concerning the food served to the inmates. The mother superior an- CASTORS A For Infants and Children. Th«fae- /J _^ . simile S~)V /'fTs) si ICW swered each inquiry in detail, specify ing the bill of fare for breakfast, din ner and supper. According to her tes timony the food is wholesome and suffi cient — bread, coffee and hash, or bread and butter and coffee for breakfast in the mornings; soup, vegetables and fresh meat for dinner; molasses and mush, bread and butter and tea, and sometimes prunes or baked apples for supper. The sisters partook of similar food. The inmates were never refused a second dish, nor.Bc6!aed for asking for it. In conclusion, the mother superior testified that so fpx as she knew, the plaintiff, Miss Clewett, never demanded that she be released frbm the institu tion. Court then adjourned until 10 a. m. today. When the work of securing the jury was resumed at. the'morning session of court, Mr. Butts discovered more Ro man Catholics, and continued the same line of questioning to ascertain wheth er or not the religious convictions and leanings of the Cathoß<S jurors would influence them in giving a verdict. In three cases the court held the chal lenges for bias to have been unproved by the plaintiff's attorney. Mr. Butts challenged P. C. Hays for general disqualification^ the juror was forty years of age and was born in Ire land. He said he was a Catholic, but had no prejudice. He was not now a member of the A. O. H. He said he had no prejudice against suing the House of the Good Shepherd, and would give a verdict on the evidence. He did not think his religion would interfere with a just verdict. Mr. Butts then submitted his chal lenge for bias. "We submit the challenge," replied Mr. Clapp. "Challenge not found true," said the court. Edward James, born in England, said he saw no reason why he could not try the case fainy, and his chal lenge was withdrawn. Juror Grerkiriis, born in Norway, was challenged for defective naturalization but the juror said he had taken out his second papers four years ago, and this challenge was drawn. Mr. O'Brien asked the juror if he was a member of the A. P. A. "I am not now," replied the juror. "Were j-ou ever?" asked Mr. O'Brien. Witness said he had been five years ago, whereupon Mr. Butts said he wanted no A. P. A.'s on his jury, and would accept the challenge. He want ed an impartial trial, just aa much as Mr. O'Brien did. John F. Gregory, a grocer, said he was born in the United States, was not a Catholic, and had no prejudice. His mother was a Catholic, and also some of his sisters. He belonged to no church. He was unbiased and could give a fair trial. Mr. Gregory was ac cepted as the fourth juror. E. D. Lincoln said his wife is a Catholic, but this did not prejudice him in favor of the defendant. M. F. Kain was the next juror inter rogated by Mr. Butts. He soon dis covered that Mr. Kain was a Catholic. He asked the juror many questions as to his degree of faith, his knowledge of the catechism, his belief in the the ory that the church held authority superior to that of the state, etc. Mr. Kain said he thought the authority of the church was supreme in matters of religion, but not in temporal affairs. This, however, did not satisfy Mr. Butts and he pressed his inquiries still more closely. Mr. O'Brien finally interposed an objection, saying that the questions asked by counsel for plaintiff brought the issue clearly to a head, and could not be avoided further. Mr. O'Brien thought Mr. Butts was taking the stand that because a man was a Cath olic that he should be deposed from the rights of a citizen, and could not serve on a jury- Mr. Butts promptly denied this in terpretation placed upon his line of questioning. He insisted that his con tention was merely that a man who was a Catholic, and whose faith in Catholic institutions was supreme, was not a proper person to give a . verdict in a case in which a Catholic institution was concerned, any more than a Presbyterian would be if a Presbyterian institution was con cerned. The court said it did not understand that any attempt was being made to debar a man from his rights on ac ccunt of his affiliation.-: or beliefs, and held that counsel for plaintiff had a right to inquire if such an affiliation prejudiced the mind of a juror. Mr. Kain was still further ques tioned. "You believe that the teach ings and instructions from the pope and the cardinals come from God?" asked Mr. Butts. "Yes, sir." "Would you believe, as a good Cath olic, that it would be your duty if so advised by the pope or clergy to favor the House of Good Shepherd?" "No, sir, I would take advise only in spiritual matters." Mr. Butts asked many more ques tions, and there was some little spar ring between him and the witness. The challenge was not proved, and Mr. Kain took his seat, but was later relieved by Mr. Butts. MISS HBFFELKIXGER WON Captured tiie Prize Silver Cup In tlie Golf Tourney. The ladies golf tourney at the Town and Country club came to an end yes terday, the silver prize cup offered by Miss Merriam being captured by Miss Heffelfinger, of Minneapolis, who had a total of seventy-nine on Tuesday with twelve holes and a total yester day of eighty-three with the same number.

Charter of Scofield GarriHon at WnniiiiiKton Recalled by the Corps — Tennessee Roonion. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 27.—Sensa tional proceedings marked the after noon session of the eighth annual con vention of the Army and Navy Union of the United States, which opened here today. By an unanimous vote the corps ordered the recall of the charter of John M. Schofield garrison, at Wash ington, and expelled Past National i Commander J. B. Morton from the or ! der and dishonorably discharged Daniel Drennan, paymaster general of the union, both of whom are members of Scofield garrison. This action was tak en upon the recommendation of Na tional Commander Henry Shindler, of ! Leavenworth, Kan., who charged Sco field garrison and in particular Messrs. Morton and Drennan with disloyalty to the organization and its regularly appointed officers. The expulsion is an outcome of a bit ter fight that has been waged by Sco field garrison upon R. A. Fanning, ad jutant general of the union. National Commander Shindler reported that their action had been "unbecoming and j wholly out of reason," and a vote of i the corps showed that a majority • agreed with him. Messrs. Morton and ! Drennan are clerks in the office of I Maj. Gen. N. A. Miles, commander-in chief of the United States army, and both have long been prominent In army j circles. Drennan, the discharged pay master general of the union, did not put in an appearance at the meeting, but submitted his report by mail, send ing a draft for the balance due the or ! ganization. Adjt. Gen. Fanning noti j fled the meeting that the remittance I was $56 short. About 100 members were on hand when the meeting was called to order. I The morning session was confined to j welcoming addresses and responses and a small amount of routine business.
