Another of the big gridiron battles ot the year Is to bo fought out today when the Blue or Yale and the Orange and Black of Frlnci > < on clash on Brokaw Held at Old Nassau. This contest will mark the close of Princeton's foot ball season and the be ginning of the end of Yule's , for on next Saturday the Blue winds up Its year with Harvard. As the most Important game on the schedule ot the Orange and Black anil one of the most Important of the Yalenslans the tussle ought to bo a mighty one. The light wlir consist In the pitting of a superb offcnae ngalnst a superb defense. All reports from the cast coincide in declaring that Princeton has a magnificent line that oan stand any amount of puniuiellng , The three editor men are superior to Yale's , Captain Hlllcbraiul outclasses Allen com- plcMy at ono of the tackles and Captain Chamberlain of Yule will find a man worthy of his Bteel In Gear at the other tackle. Coy and Hubbell , nt the Yale ends , are heavier than Pee and Palmer , the Princeton end rushers , but the latter are very flulck and tierce. Surpassed as Yale seems In the line she Is apparently as superior In the back field. It reports are at an trustworthy , however , Yale's splendid backs are crippled. Do Baulles , ono ot the 11 nee t quarters that ever trod the chalk ribbons , has a bad nnklo and Yalo'8 premier half-backs Dudley , Corwln , Townsend , Benjamin all have bad knees. McBrlde , the full , Is the only ono In good condition. On the other hand Rclter , Princeton's best half , Is out of the game and so Is Hutchlusou , tbo best quarter Nassau has. has.Tho betting Is even , with odda slightly In favor of Yore , although the records of the teams hardly warrant anything but an even- up bet. While Pr/nceton / n week ago , was lied by West Point , a team that Yale de feated by a score of 10 to 0 , two weeks ago ( OMPANY5S 1 UIAO-I tkd.S Known 'round the world.

Princeton has run up the biggest total ot scores for the Benson and has been scored against a fewer number of times , but that tells little. The record ot the two teams for the season has been as follows : PRINCETON * Princeton 21 Lehlsh ( I Princeton 42 Stevens 0 Princeton 6s Franklin & Mar Princeton 31 shall 0 Princeton 30 Lafayette 0 Princeton i !

Of the twenty-two games It has won fifteen and Princeton ouly coven. Another big game In the cast will bo the struggle between Pennsylvania and the In dians. The Redskins will put up a hard game , while Pennsylvania's defeat at the hands of Harvard may take some of the spirit out of the eleven , yet the Quakers ought to win quite handily by o. rather small score , however. If the Indians were up In the flne points of the game , If they selzo the opportunities Pennsylvania will undoubtedly offer through fumbling , they ought to have a good clianco to win. But the Harvard-Carlisle game seemed to Indi cate that the Indians' gray matter Is lackIng - Ing in this respect and It Is a bit too much to expect that they have Improved enough fcluco that time. Harvard has no game and Cornell pfayi Lafayette. Nebraska has a rather tight proposition this afternoon In a game with Drake Uni versity of DCS Molnes. The latter eleven has done good work this season. In Its record Is a victory over the Iowa State University by a score of IS to C and another over the Moumouth team by a score of 3t to 0 , The Nebraska lads , however , have recovered from their bru'slng ' down south and expect to win.

NEW YORK , Nov. 11. Through the un- Icoked for Impulsiveness and stupidity ol his brother "Jack , " Dave Sullivan , the llt- tlo Irish pugilist , lost the bout with George Dlxon , the colored featherweight champion , tonight at the Lenox Athletic club. The lads were matched to go twenty-five rounds ' at 12J pounds and for nine rounds Dlxon had the call. He was Sullivan's muster In nearly every Instance , but in the tenth round ho more than outpointed his adver sary. A left-hand hook from Dlxon which caught Sullivan on the head almost put Dave out of business , but ho pulled himself together only to go to the Door near the roped from u push. This occurred very near the end of the round and Jack Sulli van evidently thought that time was up. While Dave was trying to regain Ills feet Jack jumped through the ropes and then ran back again , A moment later , just as Dave stood erect , Jack Jumped Into the ring again and ran over to the referee choutlnp , "Time Is up , " "Time la up.

FRAXEY COULD XOT LAST LO.\G. Anxtrnlliin .Tlnnny Ilynn Puln Him Out In Four Hound * . LOUISVILLE , Ky. , Nov. 11. Australian Jimmy Ryan sent "Jim" Fr.incy , the Cin cinnati welterweight , on a Journey to the land of Nod tonight In the fourth round of what wan scheduled to bp a twenty-round contest. The men split about even In the first and second rounds. They fought fiercely In the. third , mixing It up at short range. The Clnclnnatlan looked distressed as ho took his chair. In the fourth round Franey started In to force matters. Ho swung vicious rights and Ipfts at the Australian , who contented himself with blocking them. The foxy old ring general was looking for an opening and It soon came. Quick as a flash the right hand that has sent so many fl&hters to Queer street shot out. It landed Hush on Francy's Jaw and doubled him up like A Jackknlfo. He was completely knocked out and It took his seconds some minutes to bring him to his senses.

Tomorrow on Mar shal field the elevens o the Universities of Wisconsin and Chicago will merit In a contest that will go a Ions way toward Nettling the western foot ball championship. The game may also bo the last for several > cars between the two Institutions , as the intense feeling stirred up by charges and countercharges o professionalism will probably result In the severance of athletic relations. The game will bo unique In that two of the best punters In the coun try , Herschbcrjror and O'De.i , will be pitted against each other for the llrst time. The Wisconsin team will have Sno rooters from the university and 3UO other Uadsers will bo pn hand to root for the Cardinals.

People who have watched the construction of the new Flnley building on Twenty-fifth street , which the city officials have leased for a term of flvo years for city offices , begin to realize that the city did not get any the better of the deal. A contract was entered Ino by the mayor and council on Sepcrabcr 19 for city offices in 'tho ' Flnley building at a monthly rental of $145. This contract is to run for five years from December 1. All of the members of the council , with the ex ception of Wear and Fanferllk , voted for tie contract and the mayor signed It when It was presented to him with the record show ing that a majority of the council favored the new location. Ono of the city officials who did not vole for the proposition said yesterday that he had been looking over the building and in his opinion the city Is Jumping from the frying pan Into the fire. While < the new Quarters will be clean , they are hardly up to expectations. According to his contract Flnley will not have to furnjsh any light , neither Is he responsible for janitor service , although ho agrees to supply steam heat. The rooms , this city official said , will be dark as compared with the present city of fices. Further , this councilman said that when the bills for extras came In it will bo found that the city will be called upon to pay n considerable sum. At the present time tbo city is paying for the removal of the cells from the present city jail and this work alone will cost ? 75. With the extras to bo added to this account , Including ono new cell , it Is thought that the jail work nlono will cost the city at least $125 , and possibly more. It boa been supposed all along that the building would ba lighted with electricity , but If the terras of the contract are carried out the city will pay for wiring the part It rents and pay for the cost of lighting besides. All the city gets for Us J145 a month Is office rooms , court and council rooms and jail , these to be sup plied with steam heat. PICIIHPM tlif Tlilril AVnrd People. Third ward residents are greatly pleased at the prospect of better strct car accom modations. As soon as the additional track which Is now being laid on Q street Is com pleted another car will bo placed In tervlco and the street car people say that If two cars caimrt handle the traffic another car will bo ordered on the line. A great many residents of the ward would like to see the line extended to Thirty-sixth strct , and It Is possible that this may tie done , although officers of the street railway have not fully decided this question. By extending the line quite a populous district would bo tapped , thus affording accommodations to n great many who arc now compelled to walk nearly half a mile to reach a car.
