Umpire—Mr. Robert Williams, Uni versity of Virginia. Time of Halves—Thirty minutes. Game called promptly at 3:30. The final practice in preparation for to-morrow's game with the yellow adorned athletes from the Jay me tropolis was held last night and for an hour the men were rushed through the same fast signal practice which they have been undergoing each night for the last week. After the practice last night Capt. Cope said he was thoroughly satisfied with the work that had been done and believed that unless Jacksonville had strengthened materially Savan nah would win by two touchdowns. The team is not in as good physical condition as could be desired, three of the men suffering with injuries which will handicap them more or less. There are plenty of good substitutes, however, and if necessary nearly an entirely new line can be switched in. Levy is the only substitute linesman who will not be available. It was necessary to perform an operation sev eral days ago on one of his feet, and he has not sufficiently recovered to play. The line up as presented above is official. Manager Dozier verified it by telegraph last night and Capt. Cope stated positively that this was the way Savannah would line up, at the start, anyway. Jaya Sny Eld 30l Off. Commenting on the statement made here several days ago that a good deal of Jacksonville money had been wager ed here at even money, the Florida Ttmes-Union claims that no such bets have been heard of In Jacksonville, and that supporters of the Jay outfit were not disposed to lay their money at that price. The money might not have come from Jacksonville, after all, but there is about 1600 of It held at Israel's pool room. It Is needless 'to say that this has been amply protected •with Savannah money. In the face of this hard battle several veterans of the Jacksonville line have come to the aid of the team. Allen is back in the gtime at tackle and Tipton is playing one of the halveß with Ho gan Yancy. The game will be called to-morrow promptly at 3:30, the length of the halves making it necessary to start early in order to finish before dark. Jacksonville evidently decided to wait until to-night to come to Savan nah, although some members of the team came up last night. They were W. A. Jones, H. Yancy, W. Yancy and Ferris. The other members of the squad will arrive early in the morn ing. Mast Keep Oil Field. Capt. Cope and Manager Mclntire called on the superintendent of police yesterday, and made a special request for as large detail of men as possible to preserve order and keep spectators off the field. It was also requested that in the event of any fisticuffs between players that they not be Interfered with by the police, unless specially called, as their rushing to the play ers only attracts the crowd. There are few games where some belligerent player does not get angry at an op ponent and a fisticuff of short dura tion ensues. It is always the case, however, that these are soon over and the men become as good friends as ever. Those who have the Interest of good, clean sport at heart are especially cau tioned not to make an attempt to go on the field. Every man who comes through the fence will be arrested, and If It Is through'the Interference of the crowd that the game Is stopped the referee will exercise hi* judgment as to the game being awarded to the vis itors. < apt. Cope stated last night that he would agree before the game for the forfeiture of the game In the event there was any Interference on the part of tr** crowd. Arr Jar* Playing I'utaum. ,Tr°"?

The old stand at the eastern end of the field will also be reserved, and the only available space for those who get general admission tickets will be on the south side line. The orders for seats for the Jacksonville rooters have not yet been placed. Despite the fact that there is to be a game at Jack sonville to-morrow between the Jays’ second team and a team from Ocala, augmented by players from the Flor ida Seminary team. Manager Dozier says he expects to bring at least 200 rooters along with the team. Most of these wiil arrive to-morrow morn ing.

The sale of seats at Israel's pool room will be discontinued to-morrow at noon. All who desire to have their seats reserved should put in their order at once. JUNIOR FOOTBALLIST WILL PLAY NEW YEAR’S. Savannah Team Will Tackle Char leston College Eleven Then. Manager Withington of the Colum bias wishes to announce to the public that he has completed arrangements for a game of football with the Charleston College eleven of Charles ton, to take place In Savannah New Year's morning, at 10:30 o’clock. During its three years of existence the Columbias has not been scored on, CAPT. COPE ASKS FOR GOOD ORDER AMONG CROWD Savannah’s Captain Wants No Hot-Heads to Pre cipitate Trouble. Capt. Cope of the Savannah team writes the following appeal to the foot ball lovers of Savannah to refrain from any repetition of the disorder which interrupted the Thanksgiving Day game: "To the Lovers of Football: You know as well as I do that we are go ing to have a hard game on the 26th and another on the 2nd. We will have our hands full on the checker board in handling our opponents, so I, in behalf of the teams, 'beg you to keep off the field. We have two officials for these games who will not stand for anything of this kind. They will give the game to our opponents if the spec tators rush out on the field. I for one hope that they will do so if it hap pens. "We have gone to a great expense in fixing up seats to accommodate you. and you who have coupons for seats should remain seated until the game Is finished. You can obtain a better view of the game from these seats that we have fixed for you than from any other part of the fi°!d. If you would stop to consider you ,ould not rush out on the field. "If you happen to see two or three players passing blows, please do not come on the field.

DECEMBER 25. 1904. and last year scored two decisive vic tories over its closest rival, the Law ton Cadets. So far this year the Co lumbias have been unable to get a game, despite a broadcast challenge to any junior team In the South. Sev eral times they tried to arrange a game with a junior team from Charles ton, but were unsuccessful, and it was not until recently that they were able to make arrangements to play the Charleston College, the best Junior team In South Carolina. It is expected that the largest crowd that ever saw a junior game In Savan nah will witness the contest. The very fact that the game wiil be played be tween Charleston and Savannah teams should draw a crowd. The manager of the Charleston eleven writes that a large crowd will accompany the team over. The Columbias average about 135 pounds, and are exceedingly fast. They claim that the present team is the best they have ever placed in the field and that they will defeat the Over Homers, although the game will be close. YALE TEAM WON FROM ATLANTA TEAM. Atlanta.

Columbia was third with 5% points, as against 4 for Yale. differences like this. We have officials who will put a stop to things of this kind. Manager Mclntire and myself went to see Chief Garfunkel about this matter, and we came to the conclusion that the first person who came on the field who did not have any right there would be arrested, so to eliminate all disagreeable scenes, suppose you keep your seats. "Now, for you who follow the game from the side lines: You had better take my advice and get seats. Those of you who are unfortunate In not be ing able to procure seats may stay on the side lines, outside the fence. All of the police force out at the park have orders to arrest the first one that is foolish enough to come on the field.

Bnt He Was Too Hasty—Predicts a Great Future For His English Stallion Scintilant—Old Turfman Dis cusses Rest Horses of the Day. Edward F. Corrigan, the master of Hawthorne, is a great believer in his English horse, Scintilant, holder of the American record of 1:57 2-5 for one mile and three-sixteenths, made at Harlem two years ago. Scintilant is a son of Sheen and a Hermit mare. This Scintilant,” says Mr. Oorrigan, ' is going to make a stud success, and if I am not vastly mistaken he'll do it right away. He is the best son of the best son of Hampton. All English men, I believe, concede that Sheen as a race horse had something on the other sons of his distinguished daddy. 1 know from personal observation that Scintilant can beat anything else Sheen ever sent out. He is, I think, the only winner of the Czarewitch ever brought to the United States. He won the Czarewitch as a 3-year-old, you will remember. I think he is about as fast a horse as I ever saw, and many smart horsemen tell me that they never knew of one that could outrun him. In the race at Chicago in which he made his new record for one mile and three-six teenths he is said to have stopped the swiftest and final quarter of which there is any record in that part of the country.” Mr. Corrigan is a great admirer of Edward R. Thomas’ 5-year-old Her mis. He never saw the Hermence horse, who was the conceded kingpin of the mature division in these parts, until the World's Fair handicap was run, but he had heard a lot about him. Hermis' performance in the World's Fair handicap, although he did not win, Mr. Corrigan thinks was sufficient to stamp him a champion, even if he had never won a Suburban or a Brighton, cup. “Hermis was beaten in the World’s Fair handicap, as I expected and pre dicted," says Mr. Corrigan, "but he ran a much better race than I looked for. Colonial Girl was then at her best and the going suited her exactly. Her mis was trying to concede a ton of weight to her, and if he had done it I would have been prepared to call him the best horse I ever saw. Three months before the running of the World’s Fair handicap I thought the race would be between Colonial Girl and my horse. McGee. They had all the best of the weights. I did not give Hermis a thought because I thought him too heavily weighted. Yet I am not sure now that he would not have beaten Colonial Girl if he had been properly ridden. When Redfern opened that gap of four or five lengths at the break and took him the first half in :49 2-5 I did not think Hermis would last three-quarters. Colonial Girl did not go to the first half In bet ter than :52. It was the way Hermis struggled gamely on after this heart breaking effort that made me think he might have beaten Colonial Girl, weight and all, if Redfern had kept him under restraint and had not permitted him to pump himself out. But I do not want to be understood as harshly criticising Redfern. because I do not know what his instructions were, nor do I know positively that Hermis would have stood for restraint. Horses of his great speed do not always run well when an effort is made to choke them back. "Because of this great speed Hermis showed, and because of his beautiful Individuality and sweetness of temper, he ought to make a good horse. I should like myself to have a nice colt or two by him. "If I had not been overhasty I might have won the World’s Fair handicap with McGee. My overhaste consisted In ordering him back to Chicago on the morning of the race, before I In spected the track. McGee had never been a good mud horse, and I heard, before I left Chicago, that the going was very muddy. I ordered him back home directly the car which took him from Chicago reached St. Louis. The going Colonial Girl won over would have suited McGee as well as it suited her, and a short time afterward at Chi cago he beat her handily. ENGLISH JOCKEY CLUB HAS UP TO DATE METHODS. Judgment Displayed In Case ot Queer lteveraal of Form. New York, Dec. 24.—That the stew ards of the English Jockey Club are up to date is evidenced by a recent transaction on the turf there. Imme diately after a horse named Rising Falcon had won a race at Dexby, the official handlcapper requested the stew ards to look into the previous running of that horse, particularly In two races named by the handlcapper. The succeeding Issue of the Raving Calen dar contained a notice that the stew ards considered that “the handicapper had done his duty in requesting them to hold an inquiry." It appears that In the two races complained of, Rising Falcon Wad been ridden by a jockey who was unable to do Justice to the horse, hence he was beaten off. and naturally the handl capper took weight off, so that In the race won by him he had the advant age of less weight and a first-class Jockey. The owner of the horse, as well as the trainer, both admitted to the stewards that the Jockey who rode him when he was beaten wa* wholly unfit to do justice to the animal. The stewards accepted the owner’s expla nation, but English turfmen thought the man was lucky to escape official action. There are any number of Juat such cases aa this In the history of a rac ing season here, and It was the seal of conscientious steward* responsible for Just such official Inquiries as the above that caused them to earn the enmity of men who ware eager to do Juat a* tha owner of Rising Falcon dldt by his own confession When un fit Jockeys are put upon horse*, who should and <lo rata aa favorltae. tha Inavltabl* conclusion Is that It la don* for a purpoa* other than legltlmst*.

Un til more stringency is employed in the East there will be steady, organized efforts to “fool the handieappers,” and incidentally the public, by the inter mittent employment of fourth-rate jockeys on horses that rate as probable winners with jockeys up.

Some time ago a consignment of homing or carrier pigeons left San Francisco for Auckland, New Zealand, to be used In carrying communications between Auckland and Great Barrier Island; and among the little feathered messengers was a bird named Pete, which belonged to me, Pete was al ways known as a wise fellow, his in telligence at times causing people to marvel. But Pete was a tramp; that is, he could not be depended upon if sent on a long trip, often loitering on the way to hunt food or to play, per haps staying out hours when he should have been absent only minutes. So Pete was shipped away to be used as a loft bird—one which stays at the home loft to attract returning messen gers. Well, he went this time because he couldn't help it; but his cunning played a fine trick on his new owners This bird was taken 2.000 miles by land to San Francisco; 2,089 miles by water to Hawaii; thence 2,240 miles by water to the Samoan Islands; thence 1,600 miles by water to Auckland—in all, nearly 8,000 miles, and—now Pete is at home agin! The home-coming of this bird is lit tle short of marvelous, and this is how he accomplished it. Watching carefully for an opportunity to escape after landing at Auckland, Pete took to his wings, and finding in the harbor the vessel which had carried him so far from home, he radiated from its masts in every direction, searching for a familiar scene or object, which of course, he could not find so many thou sand miles away from his American dove-cote. However, he stayed near the ship, perhaps thinking it would return to America; but when the ves sel finally steamed out, headed for Australia Instead of the United States Pete deserted his perch and struck out straight toward his home land. So it happened that the Lucy Belle an old-fashioned sailing vessel laden with lumber from the Samoan Isles, when three days from Christmas Island, was boarded by an almost exhausted stranger; and the stranger was no body in the world but Mr. Pete. As the old sailor is a very superstitious being. Pete was welcomed amid cries of wonder at encountering a homing pigeon In the middle of the Pacific ocean, and was allowed to ride where ever he chose on shipboard. The bird was kindly treated and fed, and one day, during a storm which frightened him and drove the little tramp to shel ter on deck, it was discovered that he carried a small tag on one leg. bearing a number and his name. He was placed in a box with slats for bars and in this condition came Into San Francisco Bay with the Lucy Belle just as happy at sight of land as any member of the crew, who considered him a mascot. The story of the Lucy Belle's mas cot soon spread among the shipfolk along the wharves, and tn a few hours Pete was identified as having been "hipped some weeks before for Auckland. Then It was that the peo ple understood that the crafty fellow was homeward bound. All this work Is wonderful enough; but the fact the pete reached home unaided over 2.000 miles of land route Is. perhaps, only lesa wonderful. But n* did. It was argued on fh Lucy Belle that a bird possessing a brain wise enough to figure oul an oeean voy age could reach his home on land and after som* debate the sailors curely fastened a little atory fo Pete's leg, reciting hla adventures so fr M . known to them. and turned him loose.

He will never be sent away again, for there is not sufficient money at the disposal of any one man to secure him. If you know of any girls or boys who are discontented at home, show them this story of Pete, who so loved his humble abode, of rough board and hard straw that he outwitted cunning men and defied the risks and hard ships of an 8,000-mile journey over sea and land, in the effort to return to his home.
