In one of the * hardest , and , despite the
tlio two colleges
score , ono of Ihe closest games
leges have ever played , Yale defeated Harvard
last Saturday by the score of 12 to 4. IJvcry
ono who lias followed Yale athletics during
past years lias been Impressed with Iho
Idea lliat the so-called Yale luck Is no myth ,
tend to
and the game on Saturday would
Blrengthen that Idea. The first touchdown
made by Ynlo In the first half was n fluke
ot the veriest kind. Illckok drove the bill
on the opening kick lo the tcn-yard line In
front of Harvard's goal posts , and Charlie
Brewer started Immediately to the right , anil
reached Iho Iwenty-yard line before ho was
downed. Wrlghtlngton then dropped back foi
a punl. but Stlllman broke through on him
and blocked the kick. The ball bounded from
his chest and rolled across the line. Still-
man followed H up and fell upon It , scorlnf
Of It was a

pretty play , but It must be
considered In the nature of n fluke. .Atan/
other time , with the- lull onnles twentv-
llv e-ynnl fine , Knirclilld Irled for a goa
from the lie-Id from Ihe Ihlrly-I ve-yarc
line. The ball sallfd straight for the Kea
poits and Btruck the cross bar squarely it
the center. It bounded hack Into the lleli
and there was a scramble for It. A liar
yard guard got It and was rushing It ovei
the lime of the- half had expired , 1 alrrh n
kicked a goal from the field. This , again
wus nol allowed , and llnrvniil had lo hi
sallsHed with the score of 12 toI. . llil' '
combination of fortunate occurrences hu
more to do vvllh Yule's victoiy tlinn hei
Harvard played n more pclentlflc garni
than her opponent. Yule confined heiHelf t <
nn old-fashioned style of game. It was ai
open kicking game until the hist part of tin
second half , when she successfully used tin
revolving wedge , Hnivanl used more masi
plays , the formation of Wiitcri. A. llrcvve

cessfully. Several times the cilss-tross wai

Harvard , with a small gain The uttacl
was directed by bolh tennis , usunlly ngnlns
Ihe tackles nnd ends , the few atlempls a
the center being unsuccessful.
D1UTY , HOUGH PbAYINO.
There was nn unusual amount of offsld
play nnd fouling by both the teams. Th
game throughout was veiy rough , and thl
f xplalna the large number of Injured. Mucl
of this was due lo Ihe had feeling hetupei
the two elevens , which Rlnrled with quar
els In the line. The worst Injuied man vva
\Vrlghtngton | , whose collar bone wu
Viroken by being tackled with the ball , 1
' > eng ! said that he was Jumped on 1 > :
IllnUev after he was down None or tli
Injured , however , were berlously hurt. Hni
Yard's best plnver.s were knocked out eun.
In the game. Yule's disasters did not com
until tnvvnrd the close of the. second hall.
Individually , Hlnkcy probably dlitln
CUlshcd himself mosl , doing Ihe frteate
part of Yale's tackling , nnd In the pecon
half making extraordinary plunges In th
center. Harvard's one touehdown , howcvei
was made nround his end. Itutlervvorth *

somewhnl remarkable was the good wor

as well ns the veterans when they we

Ynle went on the Held In much hette

In Harvard training methods the law '

has been brought out of pnsl chaos of fo
ball training. 1'ast > enrs have seen eat

Dr. M. A. llrocks rr Itustoit. who has f
the past four jours been Harvard's repr
sentatlvc In matters athletic , was chosi
for the , place and the athletic system h
now found a basis on which to develop.
In the first of Ihe year theio has bci
a tendency at Harvard , as In other gre-
elevens , to bring the men to the height
condition before the gicaL game , but tli

The work of developing the Yule foot bj
eleven for ISOl was a Klip and nrduous tap
ami most of the work has fallen on tl
Khoutders of Captain Hlnkey. Yale fu

been greatly assisted In their vvtrk by't

The candidate ? for positions behind t

Jhe Clh of September. There they punt
Uliil practiced dodging , tackling , utaill
ami fnlllntt on the ball until college opeuc

"wind" he was dropped , and the middle
October found Hlnkey with only thirty in
to drill. In the preliminary work he vv
Kreully nasiated by "Kid" Wallace a
Howard Knapp. who. living near New II
veil , would appear and practice about twl
n vtetk. The thirty men who ihovved cu
nge and appetite iluilrig the remainder
October were worked each day In the mi
old , preliminary points , and when time I
prcret-practice cunio thu * ntlal featui
nf the game were known thoroughly a
tha candidates were already getting t
llnlohlnir touches. To this developing of
tennv Ynle may attribute much of her si
CMS In athletics. When the Ut of Move
bpr comes tnch yrnr the Yale eleven Is nji-
pnrontly the porn-st of the three urent
tennis , but In reality It Is , as n general
thing , In better shape tlmn the others , for
it has a good foiindatLn on which to buliu
its team work.

NEW HEfOHU FOIl WUECKS.
The foot bill men that went from Cam
bridge to meet the blue boys of Yale Sit-
urdny had nn expeilcnce unequalled In the
annuls of Harvard foot bill. There was
a HIM phis of experienced half backs at the
beginning of the seas n. Th > clirlstcnlnK of
the new alhlctlc house nrd gridiron at Sol
diers' Held was socn followed by n dally
succession of accidents thai eclipsed every
pievlous record of a Harvard Held. The half
back list W.T reduced till Captain Utmnons
was obliged to muster practice men from
the class elevens , and Ihe cllmat was
reached when Ihe veteran George Oriy vvus
oairled from the Held with a broken IP * .
The coachers have net been so numerous
ns last year , but under Ttalner Iatnron'a
care the men have shown unusual spirits In
the dully prncllce.
Captain Kmmons deserves much credit
for the way in which ho dcvekpcd his team
with many odds ugnlnst him. Only six ot
last year's eleven were In the line-up Satur
day , nnd of the live new men , one Is play-
Itiff his second season nnd another is Just
finishing his llrst year on n gridiron. The
eleven Is composed of three seniors , three
Juniors , two sophomores nnd one freshman ,
The law and medical schools each contrib
ute a member. The eleven avetngcs i\\ \ (
years of use nnd 174 pounds In vvelfiht ,

On Thanksgiving day Harvard meet-
Pennsvlvanla In Philadelphia. After the
Injuries received by BO many of her player-
in the Ynle game , from which they wli :
hardly be able to recover by that time ,
they do not appear to have very much 01
chance of winning. Pennsylvania has Imr
a good rest and ought to be In Urst-clas :
condition After this game the last Im-
poitant game of the season will be played
by Ynle nnd Princeton on the follow In
Saturday. Yale's Injuries were not verj
great , and she will undoubtedly be ready foi
Ihe Kiime. Princeton Is recovering from tm
disasters of the Pennsylvania same verj
slowly , nnd will nol be In ns good shniK
ns could be desired. Morse cannot posslblj
get Into condition for the game , and Is uc
voting his time to coaching I'oe will no
be tried nt quarter any more , and Ward haj
taken his place. Who the other three hick :
will be Is still a question , no one man belnj :
able apparently to hold any one of tin
positions untlsfaclorlly. Phil King and sev
enil other veterans nre coaching. The con
dition of the linemen appears to be almos

OMAHA , Nov. 10. To the Sporting Edlto
of The Uee : As a spectator , will you klndl ;
allow mo the space In your valuable pape
to lell my version of the recent foot bal
game between Council llluffs High schoc
and Crclghton unlverslly. In Ihe llrsl place
II was slalod lliul the Hltiffs team was con
slflerdbly lighter' ' than Creighton , while 1
was plnlnly evldent to any observer Ihti
the nvelght' was all In favor of Councl
Uluffs , not only In the line , but also behtni
It , nnd , secondly , concerning the players , 1
is well known that the Council llluffs eleve
was but plrtlnlly composed of High scho <
bo > s , and Iherefore nol as represenlei
Then , again , concerning the plaj.s. . Counc
Bluffs leceived the entire pialae , while 1
was evident to nn Impartial observer thu
Crelghlon : played by far the better garni
behn : able when In possession of the bate
to s.end her men nnywheie , cither Ihroug
the line or mound the end. The only wa
In which Council Hluffn ( obtained the ba
at all was by pretended ofT-slde pluvs an
foul tackling by their opponents. The i (
port stated that "the criss-cross was vvorke
several times , always with gains of fiom le
lo twenty > unls ; " tint the Bluffs hal
hacks went through tlm.center repealed !
and made lon end 'runs. These wei
ridiculous statements , the truth being tha
the criss-cross was worked but twice , an
each time was a miserable failure. Secom
Council IllufTs never went through their oj
patients' center. They directed all the :
efforts toward the left onil , the only vvca
spot In the Crelnhtou line. Third , the en
inns by Dyer vvtie nol lo be compare
with those of the Crelghton backs , e :
peclally the left half , who repeatedly ra
from twenty to thirty yards. But even ii
It was , CrelKhton would have won , had :
nol been for Ihe lank nntl partisan decisloi
made by the umpire who officiated durln
the last half , lor one In his position i
sporting circles , who even wont so far n
to v.'rlle iin rrtlcle on foot b ill for one i
our leading papcis hut n short time agi
one would suppose that he would have di1
ulajetl a better know ledge of the game an
Its iule , or at least made some picten *
nf hnp.irtlality In his rulings. As It wu
Ciolghton received but the shabbiest kin
of treatment ut his hands , anil would hav
left the Held , bin rather than dls.ippoh
their irlcmls submitted lo some of the rani
cat deeMons ever made on u bill Held , vvhli
Council IllurCH leceived all Ihnl they a Ue
for and much more than they were entitle
to.4"As an instance of this , during the set
onil hall , with the score -1-0 In her favo
Crelihton rushed the hall down to Counc
HlnlTs' fifteen-yard line , and would cei
talnly have made a touchdown , when tl :
iimphe. claiming that u Council Bluff ) ma
wai wiongfully held , ordcied the bu
broviRht back to the center ami given to tl
IlhiffH. It wus then that Council Hlull
made n touchdown , and It certainly n |
peared that the umpire was doing all In h
pawn to aid them. Hope that In the it
teiesU of fair jiluy nnd justice you wl
publish this ns aoon us posslb'e .

man Valley Windmill Irrigation comp > ar
for the purpose of testing | n this part <
the state and along the Frenchman crec
the possibilities of windmill Irrigation. Tl
surface bed ot the- Frenchman creek Is con
posed of dry ground , but at various polnl
an abundance ot water Is found at froi
three to six feat below the surface. M
Harman Is ot the opinion , and With goc
reason , that there Is sufficient water in tl
creek to Irrigate a large amount , of lar
In the adjoining portions ot th.o valley. Wll
that view ot the matter ho put men at woi
the first of the week excavating a well I
the creek near the city. Th * well Is elg ]
feet In diameter , and the workman are dow
now about twelve feet , and over night tl
water accumulates In the well to tha depl
of four feet. The work ot excavation wi
suspended today on .accgunt of being unub
to ball the water away from , the workrm
as fast as It Hawed In. A windmill ai
pump ot large capacity1 Is now being erecte
and when completed and In running ord <
the sinking ot the well , together with ru :
nlng a connecting tunnel across the clia
nel of the creek , will bo advanced until BUI
tlmo as the pump will be unable to exlmu
the inflow of water. After that sultab
reservoirs and of sufficient capacity f
the quantity ot water obtained will be co
structed tot storage purposes , and the cot
Ing season a corresponding area of Ui
adjacent will be Irrigated , cultivated ai
planted to garden "crops.
It this experiment proves a success , ai
Its promoters have every reason to belle
It will , then the following season will wl
ness a duplication of the * plant at 100
more points along the Frenchman and with
the limits ot this county.

"There hart bten a great emigration from
all of this vvtll i < n country this year , I guess , "
said J. W. Kirk,1 a traveling man from Phil
adelphia , wu > , SVas sitting tn the rotunda ct
the Merchant hotel last night. "I have just
returned from the southern part of Dakota ,
which I havd pretty thoroughly traversed by
team stnco the middle ot last June. Pralrlo
schooners by the hundred , almost , have been
leaving the country for Arkansas , Missouri
and other southern states. An average o (
fifteen of these wagons arc passing through
Elk Point alone dally. The great majority ol
the emigrating people are going to Arkansas.
Before making my trip through Dakota I
passed through that state , also by. team , and
1 must say that there Is plenty of room for
them. The greater portion Is yet a wilder
ness , and has a long way to go before It
reaches the civilization ot surrounding states.
" people In the towns are fairly Intelligent ,
ut the country folks are very Ignorant ,
'here are so few railroads that they cannot
eep In touch with the outer world. In the
cart of the country It Is very hard to obtain
Ircctlons to the point which you may wish
o reach. You may meet a resident of the
cry town you aru heading for , nnd If yell ask
Im how far It Is to the place , he will an-
wer : 'Waal , It Is a right smart distance. '
Then ho will ask you who you are , where
ou are from , what your business Is , how
eng you will bo In the country , and a hull-
red and ono similar questions. When they
ave been answered satisfactorily , ho will
robably wind up by asking you to cat supper
, nd stay at his house all night. The one re-
eomlng characteristic of these peopleU
heir hospitality. Of course thcso remark :

ho very heart ot the country , many of whom
iave never seen n railroad , or an engine ,
Vrkansas Is a fairly good state to settle In
he eastern portion Is a very fine tlmbei
country , being covered with forests of pine ,
"ho marshy lands are used for cotton planta-
Ions , all of which are large. The westerr
art of the state Is mountainous , especially
ho northern portion. It Is In this district
hat the most Ignorant class ot people live ,
r rather exist. I see by the newspapers
hat the northwestern part ot Arkansas am ]
, he southwestern part of Missouri are belnf
'requontly ' visited by robbers from the terrl-
ory this fall. They have a habit ot enterlnf
town In a band , cleaning out a bank anc
hen skipping out on the stolen horses. Trav-
ling men who go through the country bj
earn occasionally meet these gentlemen , am :
re compelled to deliver over all their valua-
les , but that misfortune has never happenec
.o me. "
Dr. Dorrls of Falls City , who has been Ir

n the train on which he was traveling. I1

were going down * those mountains like i
streak of greased lightning , without stop
ping for curves. The cars were swaylnf
almost continually from side to side , anc
when they were not doing that , they w'ere ap
parently pitching forward , and sometimes thi
motions were combined. I tell you It wa :
pretty hard on the nerves and stomach. Om
woman In the car , especially , seemed to hav
difficulty In keeping the contents of he :
stomach In their proper place. I have trav
eled on shipboard , and I don't believe that
ever saw a sicker or more miserable woman
She was sick until she reached the level
when she rapidly recovered. I didn't blami
her much , for I was feeling a bit queer my

In the afternoon the fires In the stoves vver

At 8 o'clock cx-Dlstrlct Master Workmat
Mrs. J. M. Kenney called the meeting to ordei

ho members of Working Girl's nssemblj
. 3,633. Mr , D. Clem Deaver delivered at
address , In which ho reviewed briefly tin
itstory ot the Knights ot Labor from tin
tart until the present time. Urlal
Stephens , the- founder , was a reformer will
he right Idol , and the speaker was sorr :
hat the achievements of the order had no
icon greater , as Us tendency was for tin
good ot mankind. During the llfo of thi
ounder of the order ho had been closel ;
ssoclated with Abraham Lincoln and othei
good men of that day. He was a cloi <
icrsonal and political friend of William II
toward and John C. Fremont , and was om
f Lincoln's advisers during the greater par
.t Ills public life. He saw the benefits to bi
erlved by the small tradesmen and worklnf
leoplo uniting In a fraternal and economli
irder like the Knights of Labor. For severa
ears the order worked In perfect secrecy , am
t was questionable whether It would no
mve been better If It had continued aloni
he same line. The first principle of tin
rder , "To make moral and Industrial worth
ot wealth , the true standard of Individual am
latlonal greatness , " was commented upon bj
he speaker at length.
The next number on the program was i
veil rendered recitation by Mrs. Fritz , afte :
\hlch T. C. Kclsey gave a short talk 01
The Future of the Order. " The worklm
people should awake to the fact that some
hlng was wrong , and could only be set arlgh
by the Intelligent use of the ballot. Tin
Cnlghts of Labor , the speaker said , was at
educational order , and he predicted that Iti
cachings on economical theories would ye
be accepted by the people of the country.
Mrs. M. U. Huntlngton then sang a song
entitled , "When My Husband is Away. '
Samuel D Nedrey was Introduced and In
lorsed the principles of the Knights of Labor
3e believed the tendency of the order vva
, oward the uplifting of man and to furthe
establish equality among men. Its teaching
vere endorsed by the leading minds of th
country , and If the order prospered fo
wenty-flve years more It would assist li
nuking many changes for the better.
Miss Clara Dopson delivered a bcautlfu
recitation , and a pretty little child , Myrtl
luse , captured the audience with a recita
Ion entitled , "Mamma Is My Friend. "
This concluded that part of the entertain
ment , and the hall was cleared for dancing
which was kept up until late.
Supper was announced at 11 o'clock am
was served In the. small hall. Taken all ii
all , this was considered the grandest enter

n this city.
TOR CICNRKAIj CONSOLIDATION.
Question of the Union ot All Organization
Again llrouglit Up.
The expression of the Knlphts of Laboi
In the general assembly meeting at New Or
leans favorable to a union of all the labci
organizations of the Unjted States bring
the question of confederation more forclbl ;
jeforo the unions than e\er before , and I
s quite probable that Ihd settlement of I
at the Denver meeting of the American Fed
cratlon of Labor will have considerable tide
do with the selection of the president o
that body.
Mr. Samuel Qompers , who has held tlili
position for years , has heretofore opposed th <
[ ilan of a general union , believing It to b
Impracticable , but It appears from what h
han said during the past year that his clos
call for re-election at the last meeting of tit
Federation has somewhat changed his oplnloi
jpon that question , and since he has learnei
that the sentiment of the rank and fllo of al
the unions Is decidedly favorable to th
general union , It Is believed he will espous
Lhe cause at the opening of the Denver meet
Ing , which may materially aid In his re
election. It is well known In Omaha tha
Delegate Beennan , who will represent tin
Omaha worklngmen at the Denver meetlni
In December , is decidedly in favor of th
confederation of all organizations ot labor
It was largely through his efforts that thj
Central Labor union of Omaha was main
talned upon the present lines ot organization
which ohow no preference to members of an ;
ot the great 'labor organizations. It Is ex
[ > ected by the Omaha workers'that Mr. Heer
man will support no one for president o
the American Federation of Labor who doc
not advocate the union of labor In all de
partments upon a plan of perfect equality
In speaking of the former actions of Mr
Gompers upon this Important question on
of the members ot the Central Labor unioi
said to a Dee reporter1
"I do not blame Mr. Gompers In the leas
for the action ho has heretofore taken. Thl
question , as well as many other labor quet
tlons , Is a mooted one , and If Mr. Gomper
had acted differently In the past respecting I
the chalices are he would have been sat upo
by the rank and file. The working peopl
as a rule will not stand by a leader wh
tries to go too fast , but they llko n leade
who follows Instead of leading. In my ou
mind I doubt very much yet If the time I
ripe for a union of all the forces of laboi
but If the meeting at Denver favors It
feel well satisfied that It can bo carried oul
However , I am sure that Mr. Gompors ha
always upon this question done the rlgli
thing at the right time. We are not yt
really ready for the consummation of th
union which may in tlmo result In gres
good to the working people. When tli
workers are educated In favor ot a gener :
union great good will come ot It. There I
no reason why a cigar maker should not t
bound to purchase union goods In all otlic
departments of trade In return for tli
purchasing by other workmen of union mad
cigars , as Is done by all good union men , an
in many ways the various trades can bo <
great benefit to each other. "
It Is only In recent years that central labc
unions have been formed , which now exist I
nearly all , If not all , largo cities In tl
United States , and the growing centime !
that all labor should come under one hea
Is In reality the outgrowth of the agltatlc
which first started In the forming of centr :
labor unions In labor centers of populatlo
where the allied trades were so closely ar
Intimately connected ,
labor OrEHiilxntlon * Not Anarchistic.
John D. Lennon , secretary of the Journe ;
men Tailors Union ot America , says : "Labi
organizations of the United States are repca
pdly charged with being anarchistic In the
tendencies. As a representative ot labor o
ganlzatlons I brand this as absolutely fals
I regret , however , to have to say that son
members of the labor organizations at Unit
give expression to opinions that are certain !
contrary to law and order and are pracl
cally the doctrines of anarchy. Such expre
ilons are Injurious to the cause of organlz <
labor and should be frowned upon by evil
thoughtful , hcnest member ot labor o
ganlxatlons. We stand for good Kovernmei
and a Juit and equitable administration '
the laws , and wherever and whenever ar
ot our member * advocate any other princlp
( bey do so contrary , not only to the rlsh
but also contrary to the avowed principles
ot our unions. "
Upon llm sumo subject Thomas Cronchley ,
ex-prcsldcnt ot the Clothing Cutters' union ,
says. "Tho very Idea that anarchy has any
hing In the common with labor organizations
Is preposterous. Anarclilstn propose to do
away with governments , with law and order ,
whllo the labor organizations propose to 1m-
irovo government , to make It better and
nero equltnbla to llvo under. Wo show our
interest In the welfare of the government
by taking nn active part In political govern
ments and campaigns , whllo the anarchists
never \oto at all nnd pay no attention to
politics. The Influence already exercised by
abor organizations In fnvor ot good govern
ment has been marked and It I mistake not
the work of the labor organizations will jet
) o appreciated by the public. "
TROUBLE BETWEEN NEGROES-
Ono Iniiuro tlio Arrrnt m Another on it
Charge nf InrciullnrlMii.
Dill Johnson , a saddle-colored negro , was
arrested yesterday afternoon on the charge
of being a suspicious character. Johnson
Is suspected of having sot fire to thehouse
ocouiiled by Charles Fears at Thirteenth nnd
Valley streets a few nights ago. The house
was nearly burned down , and Fears lost
almost everything ho had In the world.
The fiio started In the upper story of the
house , which part was not occupied. The
stove was In the basement. All the lamps
lad been carefully nut out several hours
Defore the flro broke * out , which occurred at
about 1 o'clock. All the circumstances
pointed to Incendiarism. On the day after
the fire Johnson asked Fears It ho sus
pected him of having set the house on fire.
This question set Fears to thinking , nnd
ho finally decided that for various reasons
10 did suspect Johnson , and ho so notified
Lho police. The reasons that brought Fears
to his decision ore somewhat Interesting.
About nlno jears ago Johnson was workIng -
Ing In Grand Island. Thcro ho met a Swede
girl. They evidently fell In love with each
other , for they went to living together , but
without the formality ot marriage : In the
course of time they came to this city nnd
lived In the south part ot town , near Thir
teenth and Valley streets. The woman was
not treated very well by Johnson , but she
continued to llvo with him until some three
onths ago. Since his arrival In this city
; io has been In jail several times , but ahvn > s
for small offense-si About three months
ago ho was arrested for stealing a watch
and was sent to the county Jail. The woman
decided that this was the. last straw and
commenced to llvo with another negro ,
harles Fears.
When Johnson got out of jail about six
weeks ago ho found the two living together ,
nnd ho threatened to kill Fears nt the first
opportunity. Ho bouwiit a revolver and
started out on the war trail , but before ho
could accomplish his purpose he was ar
rested for carrying concealed weapons. He
was discharged and remained quiet , but
was watching for a chance to get even with
Fears. About a week ago he heard that
Fears was going to move Into the heart of
the city. On the day before the Intended
removal the house was set on fire. The
police think that Johnson came to the con
clusion that It ho wanted to get oven he
had better do It before the removal , and
therefore set flro to. the house.
Fears and the woman \vere > married in
Council Dluffs about a month ngo.
