WESTERN , Neb. , Oct. 7. 1807.-I caimo
hero from Livingston county , Illinois , In
18B9. with little bcsldo fin old plug team I
linmestcnded ICO acres on the north border
of Jefferson county. In 1873 1 bought ICO
n res adjoining the homestead , I Improved
the farm nnd built a good house and barn.
This farm is worth now over $12,000. In
IMO I removed to my farm adjoining the
city , paying therefor $50 par acie , 1 have
made some money , but I bad to work for
it. My farms are worth J23.UCO to > 1.0W. I
liavo made it all since I cumu to Nebraska
and mudc It Vy raising corn and stock.
DANDUnY , Neb. , October , 1S37. I lo
cated three miles west of Danbury , Red
Willow county. Neb. , on a homestead In
1872 , coming here from Indiana. All I had
on earth when I went on my homestead
was good health and a good team and
wagon. I have never had a complete fail
ure of crops but have bud a few short
crops. In 1430 I had what a great many call
a. Nebraska failure , but even In that year
I raised some corn and sold V.W ) worth of
) iog and $100 worth of nlfnlfti seed. In
1S93 I sold $ l.BOO worth of hogs. In 1S31 , an
other so-cHlled failure year , I sold $7,000
worth of alfalfa seed and $1,000 worth of
hopB. This year I have sold already over
JS.W.'O ' worth of hogs and have $2COJ worth
of alfalfa seed ready for market. I now
own 40J acres , well In.provcd , In the IJeaver
valley , it being my homestead nnd land I
bought. I mil out of debt and I havu made
every dollar right hem on my farm , If
you doubt my word you can refer to any
business man or any fanner In this vicinity.
There are others who have done fully as
well a myself. If 1 was an catitcin renter
I would como west and secure me a jood
home , I also consider It a good Investment
for anyone. I do not write this expecting
to find a buyer lor my farm , us It Is not for
sale. I am simply telling you what I have
done nnd others cnn do us well.

JOHN YOUNGQTJIST
l rrrrmffyrTT CITY , Neb. , Oct. 20 , 1837. I
came to Pumas county , Nebraska , In 1874 ,
from England. I had about JIM In my pocket ,
but knew nothing of farming or of western
life. I put In the first tow years hordlnc
cattle , hunting buffalo and h.ivlni ; a good
time generally. I made a living , but spent
fwhnt I earned as soon as I got It.
I married a Furnas county girl In 1SSO and
went to work. I had at that time $250 cash ,
eleven youtiff cattlu , three ponies , two pigs ,
ono wagon and harnera and ono Iluckcye
combined reaper nnd mower , for which I
owed $150. I Invested nil my money In young
Block and picked up every calf I could get
hold of. In 1SS3 I sold over $2,000 uvorth of
stock and went to South IXikcl a to engngn
in the banking business , leaving ns much
etoclc on the farm as I had to commence
wUh. In "the meantime I had bought and
paid for 20 ! acres of land adjoining1 my orig
inal 210 acres , all of which I fenced and Im
proved. I returned to Nebraska In 1SSS , since
which time I liavc been in the real estate
unit hniiklmr business , i now own Ij ( 0 acres
of land in Pumas county. My farm Is two
nncV one-hair mPes east of Heaver City. I
liavo never failed in raising a crop. In 18D4 ,
the year of the creat drouth , my corn on
this farm wont fifteen bushels per acre nnd
my alfalfa , which I cut four times , made
over Ilvo tons ( per acre. I tinvo raised hogs
through thn , Bummer on alfalf.i pasture with
out any grain nnd they do well , though a
email ration of grain Is , I think , a-'visible.
Alfalfa liny Is the beat feed over fed to cat
tle. I think I am safe In saying that a
atcer will nerd fully onu-thlrd less corn to
flt him for market when fed alfalfa than
rwhen feed hay or straw. Too feeder will
nlso not be troubled with lib ) cattle "sr-our-

The meeting of the National Wholesale
Drugfflsts * aBioclatlon at Richmond brought
together some of the best business minds
In the United States from fill sections , and
offered a rare opportunity f6r a birds-eye
view of the business Interests of the coun
try , 'i-ays the Richmond Whig. The most
checilng and remarkable report comes from
the noW'preslddntr'6f the National Wholesale
Druggists' assoJatlen , Mr. Charles V. Weller
of Omabi. Mr. Wollcr Is a thorough western
man nnd Is fully alive to the Interests ot
his section , and although native of Ohln ,
ho Isvery 'loyal to his adopted home and
does not fall to advertise his city and state
whenever an opportunity offers.
Mr. Weller says that since the panic of
1SD3 the vrest bis not been flourishing from
the fact that farming .communities In tUo
Dakatns , wrstcrn Kansas and Nebraska were
made up of men of modcrnto means who
had been renters In the eastern and middle
nlatcs and had como west to better their
conditions end take advantage of the low
prise ot land and the liberal terms on which
It VMS rold. So long as the crops continued
good these farmers succeeded admirably.
They were able to Improve their farms In
addition to keeping up the payments en their
land. The drouth of 1891 , partial failures
of crops In , IS95 , following close upon the
heels of ths panic , wcro a , hard blow to the
tinners in this section. They were not In
a position financially to stand reverses and
the result wns that they wcro unable to
pay the Interest on their mortgage . They
had to Ilvo so far as purchases were cnn-
cernod on the country merchants. Tlio
country merchants , In turn , had to live en
the Jobbers. Bettei- times oime In 1890 and
a fair average crop was produced throughout
the west. This was followed by the present
year with the most magnificent crop ever
raised In Nebraska or territory tributary
thereto. Such a condition ot things as exists
this year will probably never be witnessed
afraln by persons now living. There came
out of the ground In Nebraska this year In
corn and other products what will sell for
more In dollars and cents than the ground
Itself could have been bought for a year
ago. In other words , the farmers of the
\\est have In a single year produced the
prlco of their land out cf their land. This
Is the condition In Nebraska the value of
the crop raised this year being estimated at
$150,000,000. This has teen sufflclent
to lift the country out ot the
slough ot deapond. The effect on buslaoEs
has been extraordinary. .Tho wholesale bus
iness has Increased 23 per cent , Indicating
a corresponding Increase in the retail tiade.
The people of the entire west are hopeful
and confidently believe that hard times are
twit. The settlement ft the political agita
tion mil of the tariff and moner mirations
has given cause to expect Increased pros
perity In all lines. Manufacturing estab
lishments have sprung up In every city.
Riillroads are reachl.-.g cut building new
transpottatlcn lines .inn Increasing their
facilities for handling the Increased builnces
that Is coming to tnem. Live sto"k Inler-
eats are greater than c-ver before , : u will
bo noticed by observing the repoi : s from
Omaha and Kansas City. The markets of
tlu'se two cities have sprung Into great
prominence as headquarters for the packing
Interests of the country. One new plant la
being started In South Omaha that requires
the investment of , $2.500,000. Omaha proper
id enjoying a veritable business boom never
before known In the history of thetown. . I
feel justified In predicting that the business
ot Omaha this year will be at least 50 per
cent lii advance of what It was liISflC. . The
people west of the Missouri are looking for
ward to good times. 'In- drug circles business
Is especially good. Tho''wholesale druggists
of the west are larger handlers of patent
medicines than In the east. Scattered over
a broad extent of territory the farmer folks
of the wect depend less upon a physician
than those of the east. They are larger
buyers , therefore , of patent medicines. Sixty
per cent of the western wholesale druggists'
business consists of patent medicines. * A-
difference of 20 per centjjajcoinpared with
eastern , .houses. _ , _ - "

Sheriff Dorowsky from Spink county , South
Dakota. Llnvllle Is about 24 years old and
of good appearance and Is free to talk of the
crime , saying the deed , was committed in
self-defense. Ho claims to have never seen
his victim before and -while ibelng pounded he
pulled his gun with his loft hand and shot
and then for fear of violence fled. Ho says
the officers at one time wcro so close to him
when ho was hid in a Held thnt ho could
hear them talk. Ho portly swam the Mis
souri river near 'Martlnsburg and wont up
Into South Dakota and was captured at
Coiidc.
Ho was apprehended by W. W. Kisser , a
farm hand hero who formed his acquaintance
while ho was tending bar at Hubbard nt the
time of the tragedy. Kisser went up Into
South Dakota to work this summer and felt
In with Llnvlllo , and' ' the latter says he has
been putting up for him and In return Kis
ser proved a traitor nnd communicated to
Sheriff Borowsky his whereabouts , Llnvlllo
will claim Eclf-dofenso and the stories of the
Bhoatlr.g are so conflicting it will rcqulro the
evidence * to disclose the truth. Llnvllle
claims his liomq is , Kentucky and that ho has
two sisters living there.
Friends and relatives of Carpenter at no
time showed any disposition to aid the
sheriff iu the pursuit ot the murderer and
It is said that It was the dying request of
the dead man not to punish Linvllle , as one
was us much to blame as the other.

BEATRICR , Neb. . Nor. 21. ( Special Tele-
Brain. ) The case of cattle stealing at Fair-
bury Is developing some Interesting features
and which may result In the arrest of the
thieves. When Iho man named Miller , who
stole the cattle from the Hotallng & MDoll
Milling company ot Falrbury , reached
St. Joseph and iold thorn , ho was refused
the cash on the Bale , n sum amounting to
about $ SOO , the commission flnn buying them
Tea-ring they wcro mortgaged cattle. Miller
made no protests nnd suggested that , as ho
was to return to Beatrice , where ho expected
to USD the money , the cash be
sent the First National bank here nnd
entered to his credit. This was done , and a
few dajs later , which was early this week ,
a man appeared at the bank here ,
Introduced himself aa H. S. Miller and asked
It any money had been sent there from St.
Joseph to his credit' . On receiving an affirm
ative reply , ho wrole a chock for the amount
and called for the Dish. The bank , however ,
letused to cash the check without some
Identification , wheroiX > n Miller said he could
got Joe Kills , a well known cattleman , to
Identify htm cad left the bank. Later In
the day he reappeared at the bank nnd , mak
ing some excuse about not being able to
see Gills , asked the bank officials to forward
the money to him through the State bauk
at Falls City , where ho said ho was going ,
which was agreed upon.
Before ecndlng the money the First Na
tional people wrote the Falls City bank to
the effect that If Miller was known there
cud to bo all right they should honor his
check upon them. About the tlmo a rcvly
was received from them a check for the
amount came In drawn through the State
bank at Vcrdon , indicating that Miller had
not gene to Falls City at all. This , check
was protested yesterday and scon after the
commission firm at St. Joseph wired the
bank to hold the money. It U not known
whether the Vcrdcn bank cashed the checker
or not. It it merely took the check for col
lection , there la a likelihood that the thloves
will bo apprehended nnd arrested. There
were evidently two or moro men engaged In
the steal , which was ono of the boldest over
ncrpetratcd In the slate. The man cppear-
Ine hero and answering to the name ot Mil
ler is short , slender ayd of dark complexion ,
while the Miller who transacted the business
with the railroad agent at Falrbury la tall
nnd of light complexion.

with four revolvers pointed at him. Ho
obeyed without any attempt at resistance.
Presently ho received a blow from behind ,
causing him to fall from the wagon. He was
then beaten Into Insensibility by a man who

The warm weather of the last month fol

tures considerably. In some places the blue-
gmes started up the same as In the spring.
The number of cattle and sheep fed fa this
vicinity exceeds that of any previous sea
son. It is estimated that over 80,000 sheep
will be fattened on Dodge county corn and
hay this winter. The number of cattle be
ing fed is difficult to estimate , but from
the cattle feeding mortgages filed It Is
probably 20 per cent over the number fed
last } ear.

tist collcgo at DCS Molncs. la , At
Iho morning service Dr. Stcloon tic-
parted from tlio customary usage Insofar
that too neglected the formality of a text ,
and his discourse consisted of a practical
talk on the sins of the modern civilization
aa compared with those of the heathen na
tions which wcro discussed In the prophecy
of Amos.
By way of preliminary the speaker briefly
sketched the characteristics of the various
nations to which Amos referred and the pe
culiar , s'ns which the prophet charged
against each. Ho then declared that though
sins might differ In outward form , the es
sence waa the same. The sins of the bar
barians , which consisted of rapine , cruelty ,
outrage and spoliation had a counterpart to
day In the atrocities that had 'been ' , commit
ted fan Cuba and Armenia. But the sins
of the modern civilization -wore no less
condemned than those more atrocluns out
rages the recital of which was sulllctcnt to
(111 ( us with horror , Wo would bo ready to
annihilate a people who would attempt to
perpetrate such outrages on the people of
ono of our own communities , but we were
very quiet In regard to the s'ns of our own
civilization. Some of these were no less
cruel than thooo of the heathen to which
Amos referred.
Luxuries enjoyed by one class at the cx-
ponso of the poverty and wretchedness of
another ; the bribery of justice ; legislation
which festered the liquor traffic and enriched
the few at the expense of the many ; fashlono
of society which bore heavily on the poor ,
anil multiplied temptations to evil In city
and country life ; the placing of corrupt men
In office , and all the other crimes of our
civilization wcro no less awful than those for
which the prophet had condemned the
heathen nations of the Orient. The form of
the sin was different , but Its essence was
the same.
Sin , In whatever form It appeared , wna a
violation of the same law. The crimes of
the preoent day , though they did not
awaken the horror with which wo contem
plated the outrages of the Turks In Ar-
monla or those of the Spaniards In Cuba ,
were no less violations of God's law. All
sprang from ' .ho same source a sinful heart.
Continuing the speaker dwelt more at
largo upon some of the bins of the present
genepitlon to which he had previously re
ferred. He emphasized the fact that the
people of thte day lacked a sudlclent appre
ciation of the fact 'that many of the things
that they contemplated with Indifference
were as real sins In the sight of their Cre
ator as the sins of the heathen In the days
of Amos. ,

"Aspirations'1 'Waa the theme of the morn
ing sermon 'of Rev. Richard C. Hughes at
the First Congregational church yesterday.
Dr. Hughes , who la president of Tabor col
lege , officiated' at both morning and evening
services In tljo .abseuee of Rev. Frank A.
WaTfleld , the regular 'pastor , who Is in the
northwestern P ° rt ot Nebraska attending to
church mo tiers , officiating yesterday in an
Installation ceremony at Hyannls.
Dr. Hughes took for his text the sentence
ot Paul , In Romans xv , 2S ; "I will go on
by you unto Spain. " The minister touched In
eloquent words on the dangers Paul met
with on his several tours , beset by bandits
In the mountains , jeered and scofTcd at by
the unbelievers and suffering from ex
haustion and the peills of storms. He con
trasted the conduct of Paul , who , as a law
yer , had a vision in which Jesus Christ ap
peared , and how ho followed the advice of
the Savior to go forth and preach the gospel ,
with that of the "young ruler , " so cleverly
depicted by Dante , who also saw Christ ,
but refused to do his bidding and became a
disconsolate wanderer.
"Paul's words about going Into Spain , "
said Dr. Hughes , "had no special significance
In themselves , unless we consider the Im
portance of the man who uttered them , and
bear In mind the hardships lie encountered
on his travels. Footsore , weary , oftlmcs
hungry , he went from country to country ,
not in pomp and luxury , but loDked upon
as a , tinker and a beggar. He did not reach
Spain , but he was a better man because he
did not , for ho did wonderful work In the
Interest of Qod's word in those parts of the
world he preached In. His devotion to the
cause illustrates the words of Browning :
What I aspired to bo
And was not , comforts me ;
A brute I might have been , but
Would not sink In the scale.
"And to further quote the poet Brown
ing , " continued Dr. Hughes , "it la by the
stimulus of aspirations that wo may at last
reach what Browning calls the 'ultimate
angels' law. ' " Numerous Instances In the
lives of Luther , Schiller , Goethe , Napoleon
and scores of others noted in the world's
history , were cited to point out the effect
that aspirations and Inspirations had on the
advancement of civilization zad progress.
"What should spiritual min'stratlons bo In
" "Who is the best
this day ? he asked.
typo of spiritualism , Paul , or the 'Young
Ruler ? ' the ono who refused the teachings ,
of the Lord , or the one who accepted and
preached It ? "
Speaking of Inspiration In connection with
aspiration Dr. Hughes told ot the growth of
the Roman Catholic order of the Jcmilts
from the email beginnings made by the de
voted Loyola , "He aspired and ho suc
ceeded. Such too , " lie added , "la the his
tory of many another church and great
movement. Visions also have a great deal
to do with spiritualism. Wendell Phillips
became the great man he was , from the po
sition of an obscure lawyer , merely through
a vision. He saw a mob in Boston assail
a street preacher who apoko against the
practice of s'.avery , one day many years ago ,
and Wendell Phillips wont to ha ! rescue and
from his magnificent defense of the victim
of the mob and"'tho 'prlnciple-s lie repre
sented , Phllllpa'.became a great reformer.
"This Is a Umciof visions. It Is seen in
the growth of colleges , throughout the world ,
broadening and .extending the fund of human
knowledge andilcduoitJon ; it is seen In the
extension of thOjword of God and thu steady
increase In the number of the houses of
worship. That tula 'Is a time ot visions IE
aUo seen in society , ? Look at the progress
reform Is making" ! ! ! New York , Chicago and
all the big cities , tile removal of haunts of
vice , the changing oMtio hotbeds of Iniquity
and wickedness , like the 'Five Points' and
Mulbarry street of New York City , to places
of refinement , Whcr * modern buildings for
the tpirnactlon bf Imslnefs and the diffusion
of loowledgo has { replaced the holea of
wretchedness. JJijnry George's methods of
teaching , although , by. many he waa believed
to be laboring undof tnlstakcs , , were the re
sult of a vlsloiL'anfl so I say , my friends ,
this Is Indeed a tlrrle of viilons and I leave
the text with you for study acd reflection , "
A feature of the services 'n the First
Congregational cbdrch yesterday was the
singing by T. Q. Hidley , whose aelectlon In
the morning was "The People That W-i'ked
In Darkness" from the "Messiah" and slug-
Ing In the evening In the absence ot Mr.
Drown ell , who U 111 at home.
It wan announced yesterday that the women
of the FlrU Congregational church would
hold -i meeting Wedneiday afternoon at 2
o'clock in the pa flora of the church , at
Nineteenth acd Davenport streets , to diiicuss
matters and complete the final arrangements

"I do not want to hnvo again the experi
ence ot this morning , " said Dean T"alr last
night. "Just as I was about to give the
usual notices and to preach I was told the
cathedral was on flro. What to do 7 knew
not , -but I thought it safer to go on with my '
part and others in discharge of theirs could I
tell mu the real condition of matters. I saw !
tlio smoke and1 smollotl the flre , 'but thoj
cause I knew not. I acknowledge I was be

and I nm not hankering after a repetition
of the dilemma. "
A gas jet back of the organ nt Trinity
cathedral watt carelessly placed and 'before
It was discovered had burned about a fool ?
nnd a l.alf of the timber In a heavy door.
The names were discovered 'by Mr. Gould ,
who quietly went to the nearest telephone
and acquainted Chief Redcll with the case.
The chief , with some of his trusty men
armed with chemicals , crept UiTb a back door
of thu cathedral and extinguished the flames
with little trouble. 'Little ' damage was done
and no excitement caused. The large con
gregation which was present at the time
was in entire ignorance of what wns tran

CYCtil.VC : I'ATH TO FORT CllOOlv.
I'll to of tlie Wheel Iloiul Itt-slN nidi
the Surpy Caimty Hnsn-il.
The prospects for a new cycle path one '
to run from Omaha to Fort Crook seem
to bo very bright at the present time. Its
fate rests largely in the hands of the
Sarpycounty commissioners , upon whom a
combined body from the. Associated Cycling
clubs and the South Side Improvement ( ' 1111)
will descend today. If the commissioners
can be Induced to look at the matter in
the right light the path is assured.
The proposed path is to run from the
south end of the Eleventh street viaduct
to the fort. From the viaduct it will run
along Kleventh street , which has been
turned Into a boulevard , to Hancrott street. |
From here It is to switch over to Twelfth
street and will run south to Missouri ave
nue , then to Thirteenth and south to the
county line. Here Is where the Sarpy county
commissioners are expected to pick it up
and carry It to the fort. I
This is the scheme that has been incubat
ing In the Associated Cycling clubs , but
little progress was nmdu in bringing It tea
a consummation until it waa presented by
a committee to the Soutli Side Improvement - I
ment club recently. This body has received j
It with enthusiasm and has promised to
rush it to a reality.
Amongi other things thesoulhsldcrs have
pledged themselves to do all In their power
to have Kleventh street paved. Council
man Stuht lias agreed to try to Induce the
council to tear up the stone paving from
the viaduct to William and repave with i
asphalt. South of William sticct Eleventh
street Is u boulevard and 10. J. Cornish , who
Is a member of tlio Park commission ,
will woik to Jiave it paved with macadam
to the point where the Douglas county '
commissioners have control at Missouri uveI I
nue. i
From this street south on Thirteenth , the i
cycle path1 would be ort a county load nnd
the commissioners of this county huve nl- ,
ready intimated that they are willing to '
build It. It is the plan to have this part of
the path run In tlio middle of the road ,
with roads for vehicles on cither side. It
Is to be raised a foot or two and will be a
dozen or fifteen feet In width. At distances
of two or three blocks It will dip downward ,
In order to leave passages for vehicles de
siring to go from ono side of the road to
the other. Trees are to be planted along i
both sides of the path , which will nuiUo
It in time a- forest tunnel.
The whole matter depends on the Sarpy
county commissioners , who will bo ankcd
to continue the path along the same plan
to Fort Crook. If they agiee to do so It is
believed that this city and county will begin - !
gin work In the epiliiK at this end ot the ,
path. Completed the path wilt furnish a j
beautiful course for wheelmen , as the
grade along the entire length' ' docs not ex
ceed 2 per cent. '
As stated before , the Joint committee
whoso duty Is to bring tlio Sarpy county
commissioners Into line , will meet Ilium .
at Papllllon , Till ! committee is composed of
ten members , live from the Associated
Cycling clubs nml ilvo from the South Sldo

GOSSIP FROM THE GRIDIRON
Snttmhy's Games Considered from a Purely
Critical Point ,
PENNSYLVANIA EASILY THE CHAMPIONS

vcrnnl lit Vnli < ami I'rltiL-o-
liin\Vvntrrit .N < itr * .
The grcatesi games of foot hall that will
bo recorded this season have now been
played and to those who can Judge only of
the results It looks ns though the cloven
representing the University of Pennsylvania
was fairly entitled to tha premier position In
the foot ball annals ot 1M > 7. That neither
Yale nor Princeton will meet the apparent
superior players from Philadelphia Is to be
regretted , as the stubborn excluslvcnesa
merely obscures the national supremacy.
Harvard played Yale to & tlo. Neither
sldo could score , but most of Iho playing
was In Iho Yale end of the field nnd If thcro
wns n shade of dlffurcnco In the relative
merits ot the two teams It wna In favor ot
the boys from Cambridge. Harvard has since
been defeated by Pennsylvania , the scoru
being 15 to C , though the analysis of the
game shows thnt Harvard was outplayed by
Pennsyhunla moro than shown by the score.
It Is fair to conclude , therefore , that Penn
sylvania could have nlso defeated Yale , the
team thnt wns outplayed by Hnrvard. And
it Pennsylvania could have defeated Yale ,
how much moro easily could It have won
over Princeton , which team succumbed to
Yulo's prowess ? Hut foot ball In the poten
tial mood Is not satisfactory. Thfc true lover
of the game prefers the Indicative mood. Ho
wants no saddcot of words , "It might have
been , " but prefers actual results. Hut actual
results cannot bo obtained as long ns Prince
ton and Yale continue their double-headed
association and 'Ignore the btrongcst team
outside ot that association. It Is said on
good authority that Princeton , as well an
Yale , will next year play Pennsylvania. If
they do It will be greatly to their credit.
Time wns when rank professionalism per
vaded the halls ot Pennsylvania , but there
Is just ns much of the true amateur spirit
thcro today as there ever was nt Ynle nr
Princeton. The athletic authorities ot the
Philadelphia university hnvo made an honest
and earnest effort to cleinao their sports
from the taint of professionalism and the
public thinks that effort should be rewardfd
by an acknowledgment from the other uni
versities. Harvard nnd Cornell have long
slnco ceased lo cry "professional" against
the Quakers nnd In those stalwart universi
ties there la Just ns much regard for the
strictest amateur code , perhaps more , than
thcro is today nt either Yale or Princeton.
This digression is made to offset the trite
explanation thnt will be made during the
next fortnight by alumni and students of
Yale nnd Princeton when asked why their
trams do not play Pennsylvania , nnd thereby
settle the mooted question of championship.
The great mass ot foot ball followers believe
that Pennsylvania has honorably won the
first rank In foot ball this year and they will
welcome Iho day when the Quakers have a
chance lo meet the haughty sous of Yale and
Princeton.
Pennsylvania has ir.ado very largo scores
this year , but has also been scored against
more'freely than has Princeton. The Quakers
have but ono more game to play and that
will bo at Phl'adclphla on Thanksgiving day
against Cornell. Unless the Pennsylvania
players should break down from jubilation
or overconfidceice before that date it is prac
tically sure to win , but thoi = e who coii'it
on a one-sided game- will bo fooled. If
Cornell plays the game It is capable of playIng -
Ing It should make as good n showing agilnst
Pennsylvania as Harvard did , 15 to C. In
speaking of the games Pennsylvania has
played and has to cilay one nearly forgets
to mcntlcu that Pennsylvania had not yet
defeated that wonderful aggregation of play
ers hailing from Lawrence , Kan. One W (5.
Woodruff , who coached "my" team , repre
senting the Kansas university , has challenged
the Pennsylvania tram , and the citizens of
Philadelphia and the foul ball followers of
thu entire'east will probably not be satisfied
with Pennsylvania's apparent championship
until the team from Lawrence , Kan. , has
been defeated. The players who sleep under
the tall statue of William Pcun are undoubt
edly kept awake at nights with dread
thoughts of what would happen lo thorn If
that wonderful team from I-awrence , Kan. ,
should come to Philadelphia.
The Kansas university eleven was on Saturday -
' urday defeated by the Kansas City Medical
' college team at Kansas City. Score : 2 to 0.
The defeat of Princeton was a hcar'-
brcaker to the loyal sans of Nassau and
[ Nassau has no disloyal sons. There Is every
, reason to believe that Princeton would have
won from Yale quite handily had the came
been played a fortnight ago , but it wan not.
I Then the Princeton team was 'ci the pink of
| condition. Its performance ngalnst the In-
, dlans wns that of superb foot ball. It was
| the only team In the United States that could
; keep the redskins from scoring. The game
against Cornell , 10 to 4 , was another magnlfl-
icent exhlbltlcti of the sport. At that tlmo
Yale was being scored on and tied by every
i old 103111 that bartfoned along. Slnco that
i tlmo there was a wonderful ch/ingo at both
1 universities , changes that the outside world
.knew but littlelabout. The return of Walter
i Camp nnd other famous players to Now
iHa\cn did an Inestimable amount of good lo
! the Yale team. It grew In strength every
| day and gained a new lease of hopeful life
by Its unexpected escape from defeat at Iho
hands of the stronger team from Harvard.
At Princeton matters seemed to go Just the
other way. Everything got on the lobnggnn
and It was merely another case of "shoot
tlio chutes. " Ono player after another got
out of condition , BO that when the game
was played we find Captain Cochran. ona of
Iho best ends that over went down the Held ,
forced to ictlro at the end of the first half :
Dalrd. the best punter of thu year ; Hannard
and Heller , halfbacks , and llooth , center , all
compelled to leave the pime In Iho m-cond.
In the meantime Yale , with a less brilliant
lot of playerfl , but with all qf _ them In per
fect condition , was hammering away in grand
style , and thus It nas that the team that
only two short weeks before Had isvory rea-
mn to look for a vlcltiry found that victory
changed Into defeat. Yale Is entitled to all
the credit that will bo glvon It , for having
built in. ) a gri t foot ball team In ICPH than
a month , for really Yale did not puy ! good
foot ball In the early twrt of the season.
The'development of the Yale twin Is etio of
the best Instance ? of concerted action over
coming Innumerable obstacles that the foot
ball world ha/i ever seen. Hut It Is liard
for Princeton to Iqso , for thcro U not a foot
Lall man living who docs not believe Hut
hotter players made up tlie Princeton team
this year than composed the cloven repre
senting Vale.
Hnrvard put up n surprisingly good game
against Pennsylvania. That It did BO wns
undoubtedly the victory ot. the trainer ovr

sulititltiites who were In good condltlm In
