Geo! but Bho was pretty. Tho crowd set up an awful yell as tho teamB came trotting on. Tho root ers gave three cheers for the varBlty, and then three cheers and a tiger for tho captain, and the crowd went completely off watch. Creton kicked off from tho south goal, and the game won on. Suro enough tho sub was in, and after tho first fow plays, I heard some-' one behind mo say: "They're weak on defense." Croton pushed tho ball steadily up toward tho north goal and gained their ground every time. I kept my eyo on Cap, knowing how ho was feeling about that time. He was playing desperately from tho word go. Croton scored at last, but failed to kick goal, and things stood five to nothing against us. I knew how Cap was feeling about that time, and was on tho watch for some tall playing. Things got desper ate then. Tho line bucking was some thing fierce. I'll declare, I forgot all about Cap's mothor. She hadn't opened her head Blnco tho kick-off, and I com pletly forgot to toll hor when the touchdown was made. Suddenly tho crowd went off watch again, and I saw that Cap had the ball undor hiB arm, and was making for tho other goal at tho rate of forty knots an hour. Well, Creton's halfback was waiting for him, and brought him down on tho fifteen yard lino. That fall was something fierce. He camo down with an anklo under him, and an arm twisted sideways. Ho rolled over once and then lay stiff. As I said before, I had forgotten I folt something clutching my arm. It was his mother. Her face was as Cap's mothor, but when he wont down whlto as a sheet, and for a minute it camo across mo that she must be sick. She was breathing hard, and her mouth had a -strained look, as if she'd beon running herself. "Is ho killed?" Bhe gasped, and then I caught on and rose to tho occasion. I told her that he'd bo up in a jiffy and that it wasn't anything, but I guess she didn't hear me. "I think I'd better go to him," she said, and got up and started off. I saw that she was completely off watch, and tried my level best to hold her, but I guess sho didn't even hear mo. It took her about a minute to dear the grandstand, and I followed with a sort of hazy idea about bringing her back or something. Before I knew it wo wore skirting tho netting, and making for tho entrance to the grid iron. Just as wo turned in by tho bleach ers Bhe started to run, and1 at that I started too, but Bhe kept ahead, say ing over and over that ho must be killed. Tho fellows wero all standing around, and the doctor was feeling of Cap's Bhouldor as wo camo up. Cap was just coming out of It, and ho groaned as tho doctor raised his arm. "Dislocated," was what tho doctor said. Cap's mothor wasj down on hor knees beside him by that time. She didn't faint nor Bcream nor do any thing out of the way. There wasn't a drop of blood in hor face, but sho began to feel of the shoulder herBolf and asked tho doctor to hurry and have him taken off. When he tried to stand up that was no go-either, and finally tho "follpws had to carry him off In a dead faint. Well, I guess wo must have cut rather much of a' figure parading across that gridiron. First wont tho fellows with Cap, and then Cap's mother and myself followed, and as Cap said afterward1, did the chief mourner act. I tell you, the crowd cheered the captain to a fare-yo-well that day, and I rather guess part of it was for his mother though thoy didn't say so. Cap didn't play any more on the varsity. It was his last game. That's why ho lelt so cut up about It. For weeks after ho looked like the end of a misspent llfo, and his mother stayed by him till he was out of It. When Cap told her he had played his last game, she didn't say anything, but a look came ever her face and she kissed him and well, about that time I took u 3neak. But I toll you she was a trump Cap's mother. You see. I got to know her pretty well, while she was thc-re with Ca V,UJ0 Br r EHDCDLATE5 For Sale Only at Harley's tf TRY A TON OF Cardiff Coal $7.00 Satisfaction Guaranteed or Whitebreast Co.
