Among the Carlisle foot ball plajcrs the

fact. Ilemls has anothri llttlo brother about
10 years of age , who weighs IS.'i pounds

they say about McCoy there Is no doubt ho

than McCoy and can punch harder I don't

Of all athletic games prol ably the greatest
Is foot ball. In no other game or outdoor

so ninth deception loquhcd , so much nerve
nnd muscle nudcd It la a gam ) ; whldi
develops both brain and bodj. foi though
stieiigth Is Ilia pi line factoi In Its success
ful pla.vlng , the battle does not alwa > s go
to the strongest nuns. Discipline ami

possessed to the best advantage have won
a majority of games and will continue to
do so as long us the game Is pluyd The
captain of on eleven occupies a moat Im

the general of an army In battle He must
know hla forces and must utilize them to
the best advantage Ho must know bis op

Man > a blood ) batlle has been won by the
sudden massing of strength and precipitat
ing It upon the enemy's weakest point , and
many a hotly contested fool ball game has
been decided In just such a way.
Thai a fool ball general may accomplish
such a thing he must have his men per
fectly organised nnd Immediately responsive
to his control , and also like the under
generals In a battle , quick themselves to
perceive weaknesses In their opponents ami
seize the advantages their opportunities
give them To fall or falter Is to lose
Ono must sometimes face an overwhelming

with llvo men Interfering for the runner.
Courage and "ncrvo are thus requisite , as

Is granted that the sport Is often rough ,

To Ihose who can look back a matter of
thirty or forty jcars the steady advance and
Improvement of the modern fowling piece Is
an interesting btudy. At that time the
breech-loader was Juat making Its appear
ance , and , oven In tturope , was run down by
Iho old fogies , who declared that there must
bo such an cacapo of gas at the movable
breech joint that the penetration and killing
distance must suffer when compared with
the execution of the old sjatcm Many of the
old-timers held on to the muzzle-loaders
until their Individual day was closed , and
then their sons and heirs had the old hard-
shooting guns converted Into breech-loaders.
Many of these old guns had the barrels eo
thin at the mui/lc that It vvns a common
sajlng that one could cut wads with them ,
and jet they carried prottj good charges
The mtiZ7lc-loailer has passe.l away almost
entirely and the breech-louder has been de
veloped Into n repeater , and when was de
scribed last jear a tiny four-pound 2S-bore
gun killing as well ah an ordinary U-bore It
was believed that thcro v.ai > not much moro
to Impiove. Yet still the Ibt of innova
tions grows
The great question appears to be the merits
of the single trigger gun , which , after jearj
of experiment , now appears to bo Hearing
practical perfection The ordlnarj gun with
the two baud * side by Hide , and the two
triggers , ono In front of the other , may fit a
man accurately with the grip requlie-d for
thu first trigger but when the hand U slid
backward for the second trigger the fit Is
chsnged Thta is eald to bo the reason why
jo many men shoot better with cno barrel
than with the other The single trigger gun
U -designed to obv late this defect. The other
great advantages are greater lapldltj In
firing the two barrels and almost total Im
munity fiom "Jarring off , " Ibis being the
unexpected discharge of the second barrel
by the dUchaige of the III at , or the discharge
of both batrcls , bj the accidental dropping
of the butt of the gun on the ground. A
number of tests have been made with thu
result that In nliootlng at clay pigeons n
clear gain of from seven to eight yardj
wag demonstrated with the ui > o of the sin-
file trigger , and that with charges wlilch
readily "Jarred off" on ordinary double-
trigger gun the now single trigger remained
firm and safe , It la now more than 100
jeara since a single trigger gun was first
experimented with , The devising of median.
Ism which would absolutely prevent the
firing of both barrels at once has always
been the mumbling block , A man named
Tcmpleman of Illnnlngham , England , pat
ented an Idea 107 yearn ago to prevent tula ,
but It wag not ustUfurtory , and of tbo tunny 1
tried nlnco nnly the ono of this year has
been satisfactory. I
No sooner wan this gun on Ihe market I
than the old two-trigger gun uppeircd with I
an Improvement which threatened to take
the wind to some extent out of ltd sails.
The two trlirgeru were arranged with the left
one Immediately under and just behind the
right , but with a guard which effectually
prevents Iho pulling of both triggers at the
amc time , jhla arrangement enables the
two barrels tbo discharged wllhout mov
ing Iho hand , and consequently without any
change In the alignment of the gun , and
there Is the additional advantage of Riving
the choice of right or left barrel , the lack
of which In the only drawback to the single
trigger Idea II Is also contended that U Is
Impossible to "Jar off" this gun , cllher
with light or hcavj loads

Hi" quail shooters nro anxiously awaiting

facilities for gelling at Hob White. The
birds have hern found unusually plentiful
even close to the eltj , but the unprecedented
growth of brushwood and the thousands of
ncres of standing corn affords them such
protection that a good bag is an exploit to
be proud of. This cover. In places , is abso
lutely Impenetrable by dog or man. and
when once the birds flush and tnko to this
they might as well be abandoned. There
will bo llttlo good sport until the longed-for
snow conicK and disappears. After this tlt
gunners may count on great sport , provided
of course , thai they have good dogs With
out a dog of course It Is Impossible to do
anything , nnd still no dog Is better than
an untrained one. That Is , lo my v.ay of
Ihltil'.ing , anyway.
The following letter vvns written by Mr.
C P. Hubbard , one of the dog authorities
of the stole , and now with the H. & M
railroad , In response to a solicitation from
a friend for a good dog. It speaks for Itself :
OMAHA. Oct. 29. Dear Friend : Your
letter asking me to send jou a good quail
dog Is at hand. I have searched diligently
to IInil one , and. while there are plenty In
Omaha and vicinity , they arc keeping 'em
locked up In barns nights and there is too
much ilsk in taking them In broad daj--
llght When It cornea down to bujlng one
It U out of the question , unless > oti should
conclude to sell out jour store and farm to
raise the necessary funels. nnd oven then It
would require considerable search to find a
man who was sufllclently hard up to set a
price on hU quail ilorf. I did not understand
the reason for this condition of affairs until
1 frail Intel viewed n number of bloated dog
holders , but the subject Is now clear to mo
and I have become a firm believer In the
free nnd unlimited coinage- dogs at the
ratio of 1C to 1 (1G ( pups to a litter ) without
wnltlng for tbo aid or consent of nil ) othei
nation
The rise of the price of dogs and their
scaiclty Is undoubtedly the direct result of a
conspiracy commencing with the cilmc of
' 73 , when the present game law wns passed ,
making it a misdemeanor to kill quail be
tween January 1 and October 1 of each jear
This , followed by the demonetisation of the
common cur of commerce , has brought the
blooded qunll dog to a premium and they
are now practically out of circulation What
wo want la n lepcnl of the game law. eo that
qunll dogs will not bo worth nny moi\ > at
one season of the jear than at any other
Wo bellevo that good quail dog ; should cir
culate on a parity with the common jailer
cur , the pup of the people Wo demand the
dog of our daddlra , a dog that would stay at
home and not go gallivanting off into foreign
countries. Wo demand a dog that will not
icqulio a bond issue and a search warrant
to keep him at homo.
We demand a dog that Is Just as good on
coons nnd woodcbucks as ho Is on quail and
pialrlo chicken
If It wasn't so lato. I'll bo hanged If I
wouldn't get up a national party and run for

produced In evidence a pair of boots of
Scotch make belonging to the prisoner ,
which. It was proven , fitted exactly the
footprints left Jn the snow by the murderer
near the see ne of the crime. In submitting
Iho boots In evidence Mr Mann called at

construction , and added thai ho had looked
all over town for a pilr Ilko them , but
without success. Mr Ilrooko asked that he
be allowed to keep ono of the boots over

to ttrookcr 'Sec hero , 'Charlie ' , where did
jou find those boots ? I called at nil the big
shops In town , but couldn't find them. '
'Neither could I , ' Bald llrookc. 'So 1 hnd
them made over night.1"
This Is n story once told n few confiden
tial friends by a strapping six-foot , broad-
shouldered statesman fiom ono of the south
ern states :
"I was making my first trip to Washing
ton as a congressman. The weather in our
section of the country was delightful , and
so long as It remained so nlong my route I
trnvclcd on horseback. One night I put up
nt an old tavsrn near which they were hav
ing a county fair , and found such a rush of
business nt the hostelry that two of us were
assigned to the bamo bed. My room-mate
was a nice looking fellow , but not talkative
i.o I was soon asleep. Later I awakened
suddenly to see him dressed anil helping
himself to my valuables. Springing between
him and the door. I expressed surprise thai
ho was a thief. The fellow was cool , sharp
and had the airs of a gentleman.
"What arc jou7" ho naked.
" 'A lawyer and a congressman. '
" 'Heavens ! ' he chuckled , 'I guess I was
lucky lo wake flrsl. '
"I bad lo laugh , dcspllo mjsclf , and asked
If bo hnd any proposition to make.
"I think I will retain jou for the de
fense , ' ho said slowly. 'That means ) ou
will get jour own back and all I have. Just
my luck '
"Ho bad mo in a good humor , and gradu
ally I drew bis htory from him and believed
It I was not as skeptical then as I have
been made by a wider experience. I agnod
to call It off , gave him some good advice ,
took hick my property and wo returned to
bed. What'do jou suppose became of him' ' "
"Hither hung or In the penitentiary , " an
swered a cynical listener.
"No , gentlemen , he's In congress himself
now , "
"There's no moro fun In the practice of
law , " obbe'rvcd the judge to the Chicago
Record man. "Thirty years ago , when wo
used to Impeach all the w Uncles on the
other sldo and have two or- three lights
every noon rccc s , It was worth while to be
In the piofcssion.
"I read in my old homo paper ) catcrday
that Ulll Traynor was dead. Theio was a
character. Did I ever tell jou the story
aboul him'
"Hill once sal on a Jury In ono of my first
casas. It was an assault and battery case.
The trouble came up over the attempt lo
build a fence across a highway. There were
two defendants and four prosecuting wit
nesses. The trial wns hold at the homo of
the Justice of the peace , n clapboanled llttlo
house right out In a , cornfield. Wo couldn't
find twelvju men In Iho to'vnshlp. so wo
agreed on a Jury of six. The Justice's wife
stood In ( hed'oorwaj ' during the trial and
dictated all the rulings
"They didn't make * the caao against us
my partner and I appeared for the defense
but wo knew the Jurymen wanted their fees
and they wouldn't got any If the defendants
vvon So wevero nol very hopeful
"Tho six Jurjmen went out Into the coin-
field to deliberate. They were gone about
two hours , and then brought in a verdict of
guilt ) and fjnpd each of the defendants $3
ami costs Ttio Jury was about to bo dis
charged , ftlie.ii my partner jumped nnd said
to one of tbo jurymen 'Say , who nut you ?
1 don't lomc'inbor seeing ) ou before * Then
thn foreman , ppoko up and Bald "That's all
right. Dill Traynor couldn't wait. Ho wont
on homo and wo got Joe hero to take his
place. '
"That's a fact. Dili had put In a mibstlluto
on the jury after they got oul In the corn
field. ' 1 ho justice said It was all right , any
way , so long na there was a majority of the
jury present , but I got up and threatened to
silo him on hla bond , so ho gel scared and
sel nsldo the verdict and discharged our
clients.
"After I came on the bench Hill Traynor
WPS up bcforo mo for stealing a ateer , and I
made the Instructions to the jury rather
favorable to him and ho was acquitted. You
see , I had a friendly feeling for htm be
cause ho had helped mo to win ono of my
first cases. "

present inontli , to be kept ami observed na a
day of Thanksgiving , iiiucli Interest center *
upon the leading foot bill teams of the
country.
Oil this dny the Rrcatost foot hull leanm
will face each other on the gridiron and the
championship of the easl ascll ns the wcsl
will bo determined by the results. Pcnns > l-
\anla having shown herself easy prc > foi
Lafayette , thcro Is no doubt but what she
will be fully as easy for Harvard. Under
the leadership of Itert Wnteri , ns co.ich ,
Harvard has tle\ eloped n team whoso chances
for success nro better than they ha\o been
for many ) onrs , and the Knmo presented to
I'cnnsy last jcar should be wiped out by a
scoie that would e\en in.iko them look upon
the results of the panic with Lnf.ictto with
pride. IInr\nrd , K'vliiK ' the Indiana the enl )
whttowaah they lm\e had this ) enr .mil
securing the only touchdown that was made
just se\on in I nil tea after the- game began , Is
a good Indication that she will push to the
front If the occasion requires It After once
scoring her plavlng wns entirely on th <
dcfensl\c. Meanwhile I'ennsy Is smarting
under her defcnt from Lafajette , n collcgi
supposed to bo In a different class from the
Hlg Four , and ha\liu ; not more than 30 (
students on her rolls I'cnnsy has trlei !
c\ery means In her power to wipe out tin
defeat at Philadelphia , and oven goes so far
as to offer Lafajelto nearly all the gate
receipts If she can only have another chance
to ictrlc\o herself.
The money was tempting , as It would him
amounted to nearly $13000 , but It wns of
secondary Importance In the minds of tin
Lafactte men , and the ) llntly refused. She
has had glory enough for 'KG.
The moat Important game of the day will
take place on .Manhattan Klcld , New York
uid the opposing tennis will bo Yale am
Princeton Yale's poor showing against thr
Carllalo Indians has caused a feeling ol
alarm at New Haven , and It Is expected ti
ha\o n reinforcement of coaches during tin
remaining weeks mid e\ery effort will b' '
made to bring It up to Its usual standard.
Captain Murphy's excuse for the pom
showing ngatnst the Indians Is that four
of the regular men were absent , and It I.
to bo hoped that this Is true , although Yale
know It was to be n hard game mil It l
supposed she would ha\o plajcd her besi
men.
Impirtlal spectators say that Yale's team
Is weaker than ever before , but of coursr

things look decidedly bright , and her chances
for \lctory over Yale look better than thev
have for many joars Putting up .1 much
better showing than the latter against tin
red men. It seems ns though she will haw
a good clnnce to repeat the victory of ' 84
unless Yale's phenomenal luck remains tin
broken.
Toot ball cranks nro getting anxious for
the great annual foot ball contest which
will bo played hero Thanksgiving day be
tween the state universities of Nebraska and
Iowa Iowa has taken n wonderful brncr
from last jear , and under the tutelage of
Coach Hull Is making taphl strides to the
front She defeated Kansas last \.eek quit-
handily , but ns jet IIPS plajcd no lean1
which Nebraska lirn so that It Is hard to got
a line on the two teams. This week she
plays Missouri , while Nebraska plajn
Kansas , and after these two games ono m.i )
mcro readily judge which lias the more
likely team. Nebraska has shown weakness
in two contests this season , as the Doane
game was won In the Drat half by two
luck } kicks , while she was unable to scorr
at all In the second half until the la.st ten
minutes. In her game with Weslcyan
college of Lincoln , an absolutely green team
her gnat swinging plHs did not a\all her
much , as the \Ycsle > an tackles stopped them
tlmo and again with no gain. They ore
developing remarkable team-work . but what
they seem to lark more than any other one
thing is a running back Tlu-lr plunging
awlnglijg ctjlo Is sure to gain them jard.s
but they don't seem to block well for an tnd
inn , and In fact ha\e no runner who Ks
capable of making n brilliant run.
Shedd , the right half , could not bo beaten
for the stle of play which they nro de-
\eloping , but his running mutes are hardl )
fast enough to help him around the ends
Northwcstetn ban remarkable backs ; the )
not only plunge the line like demons , but
also make the most brilliant kinds of end
runs. In the recent Chicago-Northwestern
game n thirty jard run was n common thing
for Potter , while Captain Vnndcusen nlso did
his share. The final line-up of the two team ?
has not been decided upon jrt , but the

from childhood's happy hour.
It h a conRervallvo estimate- Bay that
when the season Is over the games played by
tint llvo leading foot ball colleges , Harvard ,
Yale , Princeton Pennsylvania aud Cornell ,
will represent a total outlay of S125.000.
With that amount almost any manager
with ordinary business training and shrewd *
nws could star a comedian or a tragedian , or
oven a prlnia donna , for forty works , and
at the end of the OO.IEOII still have (5,000 loft
out of the original amount. Such men an tin *
rrohmana , Drady. Hola-scu and others rarely
expend moro than $120,000 on any ono com
pany which they put on the road , and In a
majority of the caut-a the mini falls far short
u ! that figure.

And > et to singe fltnl produce "for rmn
tlmo only" the grand fool ball wpecHcular
between Ynlo nnd Princeton on Manhattan
Held , In New York , tbo sum of $00 000 la
required. Of course thin amount Ineliides
the expenses Incurred by both te.ims In
their series of games with the smnller col
leges , but those- colleges are merely , in the
theatrical sense , "the dogs" on which the
mar elevens try their play , nnd the amount
Invested In them really comes under the
head of legitimate expense *
To the old "gradi" who were undcrgr.idu-
ites twenty-live , or oven twenty , ) cnrs ago ,
when a $100 outlay wns considered fabu
lous contribution to college sports , there
Is something almost sinfully lavish jn thin

not an extravagance brought on by competi
tion. If necessary either loam eould go on

woollen blanket of the best nnke. IhlH
Is no smalt Item In Itself and , coupled with
the constantly Increasing weak nose ami
shins , all demanding protection of some
kind , mnkctj a very perceptible cavity In thr
surplus.
Probibly $1,000 Is spent by both college
rach ) car In these fixtures nlone Another
thousand Is easily gotten rid of In raring
for the scrub and Iho substitutes , and the '
amount Invested In fool balls alone Is novel
less than $300.
Of course , Iho biggest Item H the Iralnlng
table Nothing but the very best food li
used. All the meats nnd vegetables are
bough1 of the most expensive films In either
New York , Philadelphia or Hoston Each
team has a professional rhef one well

food In the most wholesome way. The rigid
dieting which prevailed a few ) cars ago
Is no longer practiced ( Jood , nutritious food '
th.it will make strength and courage Is ,
