CfflLIC ATHLETES F'APAl JUBILEE With the whole college of cardinals, thousands of archbishops, bishops and clergy and representatives of all the Important governments of the world filling the stands In the Vati can gardens, the Tapal Jubilee Inter national athletic competitions were formally opened today by His Holi ness, Tope Plus X, says a dlsptch from Rome. Thousands of athletes of all na tions marched before the assembled priests and princes of the church, tfce spectacle forming an unique combi nation of ecclesiastical splendor and gladiatorial prowess. The opening of today's tournament marks the first time In the history of the Roman Catholic church that ath letic sports have formed a great fea ture of the golden Jubilee of a pon tiff's ordination to the priesthood. nus .v wno nas oeen a priest for a half century, has always been an ad mirer of athletics and physical train ing, and the present carnival was de cided uron as a result of his fre quently expressed desire to see some of the world's greatest athletes In ac tion. Every Catholic nation on the earth Is represented among the thousands of athletes assembled In the Vatican gardens today. As was to be expect ed, Italians largely predominate. American participation In the games. The trophy sent by the United States, through the Uev. Francis J. Sullivan, president of the Catholic Athletic League of New York, Is exposed In the apartments of Secretary Merry del Val. The trophy Is a solid silver cup, two feet high, having in front the American and Papal flags, with the Inscription: "The American Trophy from the Catholic Roys of Xew York to Cardinal Merry del Val, to be Con tested for by the Boys of Rome." All around are represented fi cures tak ing part In American sports, and on top Is the American eagle. AHMY EXILE XOW IS HANKING AUT1LLEKY OI'nCEIt Washington, Sept. 23. Orders were Issued at the war department yester day directing Colonel William F. Stewart, now at Fort Grant, Ariz., to report at Washington to go before a retiring board. Xew York, Sept 23. Officers here of the Coast Artillery corps have found out, they say, that Colonel Wil liam F. Stewart, the army officer who has been kept at a desoltte post in the southwest, Is at present essential ly the ranking colonel of their branch of the service, and that unless the re tiring board before which Colonel with Ireland second In point of en- Stewart Is probably soon to be sent, tries.

Colonel Stewart will trance. But 225 vacancies In the low er classes existed and more than half of the applicants were doomed to dis appointment. At 3 o'clock yesterday . afternoon "sooners" began to assemble In front of the high school. Seeing there was going to be a line of applicants wait Ing at the doors all night. Principal J. it. rands stretched ropes to pre vent disputes as to place and upper class students acted as patrols. ansa juua AUDie, daughter of the late Police Captain Auble, who was (.hot by Carl Sutherland, was among tne successful applicants who took places In the line early last night. ine unsuccessful applicants have the alternative of waiting until next year to enter the polytechnic school or entering Los Angeles high school, where they will not have the advan tage of technical courses. Canada have sent some of their tore- most Catholic athletes. Owing to the fact that there can be no cooperation between the civil and clerical authorities of Rome, the car nival will lack some of the features of the recent Olympic games In Lon don. Considering the number of na tions represented, however, the re sults of the competitions cannot fail of assuming world-wide importance. Medals will be given by the pope to all winners, and they will be accorded special honors by His Holiness. The sports commenced In the Vati can gardens today are the first ath letic competitions to disturb their quietness since the destruction of the Calipulan circus in the declining days of the Roman empire. The garden Include more tan ino acres and occu py, with the Vatican and St. Peter's cathedral, one of the seven hills of Rome. The field itself quite level and re quired no great lot of work to put It in hape for the games. A quarter-mile track has been installed and stands have been erected to aerom-1 modate probably the most distinguish ed throng of spectators that ever wit nessed an athletic tournament. In connection with the preparations ror this International x-i'pe fius a. settled another vexed question, proving once again that great rersonages of an entourage are usually more royalist than the king. Since the fall of Rome the Italian in face become the senior colonel of the Coast Artillery on December S next. This Is the date of the retirement for age of Colonel George Greenough, the present ranking colonel of the Coast Artillery. As Colonel Green ough has already obtained a leave of absence, with a view to his approach ing retirement. Colonel Stewart Is therefore practically s.nlor colonel of the coast forces, even though his desert command is far removed from the sea. Colonel Greenough had been de tailed to serve on the Cornman court martial soon to convene at Fort Wayne, Detroit, for the purpose of hearing the charges against Colonel Cornman. hut he has also been ex cused from that duty and his active connection with the army may there fore be salil to have been en. led. Rut Colonel Stewart has been re- jjmi it-ii upon ny i ne army surgeons as suffering from cardiac hypertrophy dilation and mitral Insufficiency.

Hundreds of persons, Including women and chil dren, watched the combat. The keep ers made vigorous efforts to separate tiie fighters, but could do nothing with them. For a week or more the couple had not been on good terms, and Xigger carefully kept to the corner of the cage, avoiding her angry spouse. men, wnen tne non nouse was crowded with visitors, the female leopard ambled across the cage to where her mate lay and began to scratch her back against the bars, The Devil Instantly resented this by lifting one of his paws and knocking her down. There was no further at tempt at friendliness by Nigger. She leaped at him and they rolled over the floor of the cage, clawing and snarling. The clamor aroused the other animals, and the roar of the lions and tigers was soon shaking the building. Oeorge Engleholm, one of the keep ers, procured an Iron spike and tried to pry the animals apart. Ills efforts were of no avail, and he was Joined by three other keepers, similarly armed but the combined force was futile For nearly 20 minutes the battle continued.
