There U ra14rble dlfferr ace ta the matual acores and looking only at the, flg wree, Princeton wa harder for Tale than Harvard waa. The Tlnera .topped theiYale attack lntide their, on five-yard Hue, a thing which the Crtmaon could not do; but tn the otbar hind-, the Harvard offenae a antnred the Yale gtaj much mora thaa did Princeton's and at a time later In the ea-' bob, when the Tale team played a fiercer fame. The Tiger defenae waa much ateadler, however. In Ita atand agaln.t a auperlor rlevn. Bai 'thee comparlaona, lead no where, and no one can aey which ta the bet ter team, aa the two do not play together. Then there la Went Point.' The aoldfers made a tie acore with the blue, a thine which no otbe team baa been able to do thla aeaaon. Ferhapa It will be easier to. place the army cadets after their game with the navy. ' - ' la the Yale-Harvard contest, one. play waa used try both aldee aa the principal formation. Thla waa Ur 'tackle back. Coach Htrry I. William tof Minnesota, who was formerly of Yale, .la aald. to have. been the originator of tbla . combination. Har vard suffered much from fumbles. Harvard only twice had a rhaneeto eoore. -Onee by fierce Una breaking, ualng principally a triple tandem formation, the Crimson forced Tale bark from ita forty-yard line to within eight yards of the Blue goal. Then Cap tain Keroan fumbled. The second chance was when Harvard brought -the ball to Ita opponents', twenty-two-yard Una, Then Tala held and the Crimson had to try a field goal." Maraball kicked and ' missed the goal. ; Harvard could sot bold Its lias agalnat the Tale plunges and was beaten la the first tea minutee of . play. The Crimson team was a disappointment and eemed ti possess no qualification except weight. A summary ef the play a shows the all-around superiority of the Blue. In the first half Tale kicked live limes for a total distance of 149 yards and In the sec ond three, tlmea for ninety-nine yards. In the first bait It carried the ball by rushes 1(6 yards, making nine first . downs, sjid la the aeeond 211 yarda, with twenty-ane first downs. Harvard kicked three tlmea la the first half tor 107 yarda and In the aeeond five tlmea for 130 yarda. The Crim aon made eleven first downs In the first halt, going only aevesty yarda, and tn the aeeond period carried only thirteen yards for tw first downs. Thirty thouaaad peo ple aaw this deciding game and nearly $200,000 was wagered on the result. Of the Tale-Harvard gamea for tha laat six years. Including this one, there has not bee one In which both sides have scored. Whea tha time for the final gams came either one or the other team was found to be In a class by Itself. ' Of these sit games two. were .t ta I, and the other one- Ida. :j ... With the Thaakaglrtss: game, Michigan become the champion of the middle weat, bavins defeated every team of Importance la the middle states except Nebraska, which la not In the championship contest. and bel'agf acsred en but once by a strong coo tea taut. .The closest score and hardest game waa with Wlaeensln. After this game the Wolverine -seemed to lose" their, fight lag spirit and lost form, being detested with larger scores by Minnesota and Chi cago, teams Inferior to the Badgers.- Chi cago' flayed a .much better game against Wiaconsln than against Michigan, a fact largely attributable to the return Into the lineup, of the quarterback. Maxwell. For aecatid place Minnesota and Chicago are making claims, but aa they have not met each ether, no decision which will be re ceived by all parties can be made, , and discussion Is futile. Superior speed and team play won th Minnesota . gams .tor Michigan. The first touohdowai took. only ten minutes to make and waa won ,by straight line bucking. The t we' other touches came from fairly long runs and a field .goal completed tha score. The Minnesota' soore waa made on an ac cident, through a partially blocked kick and a fumble, la a aimtlar manner to their a as odd touchdown agaipat Wisconsin. Min nesota mad a, better atand tn the aeeond half, but was sever able to gain consecu tively, making, but eighty-five yards la ths first half and ISO In the aeeond. AM those wh have Interest la tha gams ef toot ball. will regret that three games, which are now Impossible, were hot ar ranged for early la the season. If these antes had beea played there would be the' satisfaction oi. absolute knowledge in regard te the strength of the contestants, white aa it la now there Is only speculation and the comparison of a few scores, aad large field for the word "It." The gamea referred to would be a match between . Tale, the undoubted champion of the east, and Michigan, who baa won the champion ship of ths Big Nine; between Michigan aad Nebraska, an un scored on aggregation, which haa beaten soma of ths teams played by the Badgsre, but which is out aide of the championship aeries; and be twees Crelghton and ths Podge Light Ouards team, the two beat elevena In this vicinity. , The eastern teams have, of' course, long ago, before the western teams rose to prom inence, formed athletic connections with nearby colleges which result Is full ached ulea and maks opea datea for westers teams almost Impossible to find. Still the west erners hsvs for years beea seeking contests In the east and It would seem that by this time games might be scheduled. The abptire of these leaves one te think. If one so chooses, that It Ja.not so much a lack of cppcrtunlty but a mean little fear for laurel which bars the gate of contest. Captain Chad wick of Tale Is ssld to have replied te a auggeatlos of a Tale-Mlchl-van same: "That would not be popslblo. The Tale team broke training tonight. We have closed our season, and we shall not plsy sny mora this yesr under any consid eration." v With a team crippled, and against the decision, of aa umpire who charged them with holding and seven times gave the ball to their epponenta, obce when a touchdown had been made, the Nebraikans won from Northwestern; carrying the ball I3 yards. aa against the 124 of the men- from Illinois. With little doubt the rail of time saved Nebraska from being scored os, a the op ponents were close te the line and going strong; but on the ofher hand Nebraska would also, probably, have scared again as thsy had the ball on Northwesters' twenty-yard line ' at time, 'after a rapid approach. Aa the - Cornbuaker have net been accused of. holding la any previous game. It seems Improbable that they were guilty In thla . contest, and the frequent penalising at critical tlmea must be laid to. the partiality of the umpire. Hall, formerly a eaptaln ef ItTlnola University eleven. Nebraska should have :been al lowed the touchdown made 'by Englehart. The Cornhuskers were much weakened by injuries. Weetover and Benedict were lame, the latter kicking uncertainly as a consequence,; and Follmer, who waa In Sbedd' place, was by no mean his equal.

The following from the New Tork Bun deals with some of the recent develop ments of the game of foot ball: 'A few years back there waa complaint that the defensive side of foot ball has made more progress than the offensive and that the problem was to develop methods of attack that could cope with the defense, That problem seem to have been effect ually solved in the Isst few. year, by. aome on team, however. In a much (greater pro portion thaa by any other tesms. Harvard and Tale between them have beea alter nately developing an offenae that the other have been utterly unable to withstand. It la a aerlous question whether the nature of these offensive tactics with their : back-ot the-llpe battering rami and catapult for nations, calculated to leave a trail of sprawling men behind them, make for the best Interests of foot ball. Tea years ago, when seven forwards plsyed In the line on the offense, much was heard of tnterfer ence and Its beautiea. It was a dominatlag feature of games. Now mors Is beard of destructive tandem and wedge on tackle for advancement. "Tha trick of helping the runner by being there te pull and drag him along has come to the front noticeably In late years.

Of course, the hsbltues of the amoks houses re aa busy as ever, but the product of their pipes Is sot so Interesting. One little out burst slace the sesson ended has attracted some attention. This was the alleged peace ronference, first at New Tork and then at Chicago, wherein the American associstioa handed the Western league the prettiest little gold brick that a bunch of wise guy ever worked off oa a collection of come on. It wasn't Just whst any one expected, but as it is viewed from its varioue angles the conclusion becomes more and more Ir resistible that the Western may a well put up the shutters and take down the sign In both Milwaukee snd Kansas City.. Particu larly ia thla true ef -Kanaas City, where the good people who love to sit on the bleachers and cheer the players en to home run and the like ahowed a marked preference for the Hickey brand of ball last seaaon. In Milwaukee the Sextonlte had a shade the better of the argument at the end of the season,' bat' that Is nothing to brag about. In view ef the fact that Milwaukee Is cer tainly a base, ball graveyard, and doesn't patronise any sort of a team with liberality. If you stop to Ihlnk bout It, you wljl recall the fact that Milwaukee has been dumped several times by leagae that are bigger than either the Hickey or the Sexton league and yet the Milwaukeeans are always ex cusing their non-attendance of gamea by demanding higher class ball. They do not patronise any sort of ball. But this is get ting away from the text and doesn't cut much figure, anyhow. Here is the agree ment, ratified at Chicago between the two leagues: 1. That a nonconfilcting schedule be made lo the two cities of Kansas City and Mil waukee, In ao far aa is reasonable. That the schedule be made by the president of the reiectlve leagues. In the event of a difference of opinion arising upon the schedule. It Is agreed that an umpire shall be selected bv the two leaaues to -decide auch difference, if any. whose decision in each instance shall be binding. Bald u moire, to be agreed upon prior to the commencement of arranging schedule. In the event of a nonagreement upon an umpire the National board shall nominate an umpire to act.

The said bond ot nve inousana aoiiars (35,000) of either league must be submitted to. and approved of, by the president of iKlie league or association, tabllshed aalarr limit for the Kan aaa City and Milwaukee cluba under this sgreement snail De-compuiea uyvn iiib basis of the average salary of the other aix clubs, limited to thirteen men each.

St. Joseph and Colorado Spring did ths negotiating, and Omaha and Den ver might as well not hare been there. That's all. Van Brunt snd Bums, 'the men who coaxed Bill Rourke te etay out ot the Hickey league, because the defection of Omaha meant the end of the Western, were there and willing to make any sort of a compromise. It wss even proposed that Mr. TanBrunt be made a half-owner of the Kanaas' City team In ths American, and the proposition came mighty near go ing through. And this was the man wh was going to fight Hickey and Tebeau to a fare-you-well and then some. BUI Hour), the only real base ball man In tbe whole Westers league, with the only real team In the only real town, was handed the rlnky-dinky, and has to lik It. Oh. don't worry. Omaha will be there with a base ball team next sesson, and the visiting manager will be delighted with their abars of the gate receipts, but the local fan wiU be thinking of what might have been If BUI Rourke had looked on Burn and VaaBrnnt In 1901. as they did on him la 1902. In the meantime BUI Isn't saying a word. And here comes Peoria and threatens to quit tbe league. Well. Other whistling post along the line of railroad exist and some of them will very likely be beard from when Peoria's decision la finally known. Another occasion for laughter ia tbe nice little boost sent out from St. Joseph to the effect that the reason Byron McKlbbea had to wear a worried look nearly all laat summer was that he was signing the play er for Milwaukee and Kanaas City, a well as for St. Joseph. How would you like to see Angel-faced Hugh whea he reads that yarn, Dot to speak of Charley Nichols. In the meantime, don't, lose too mach sleep over the circuit question.

NOT BE RUBBED AWAY But a good linimer or plaster will often give temporary ease by producing counter-irritation and reducing the inflammation ana swelling, but there is nothing curative about these simple remedies, for Rheumatism it not t Skin disease and cannot be rubbed away with liniments of drawn out by plasters or any thing else applied to the surface. Rheumatism is not due to outside causes, but to urea, uric acid and other irritant poisons in the blood. These are carried through the circulation to every part of the body and deposited in the muscles, joints and nerves. When the system is in this condition, exposure to night air, cold winds or damp, chilly weather, seem to arouse the sluggish blood and the most terrific pains begin to shoot through the muscles and joints and they swell and inflame, writhe and twist, and so intense is- the suffering that the strongest constitution cannot long hold out against the nerve 4 raclcinjr tortures of acute Rheumatism, and man' times its ' victims are left hopeless, helpless cripples, with shrunken muscles, distorted, joints, crooked limbs and shattered nerves. There is no limit to its powers for evil; not a fibre of the body is beyond the. reach of the dangerous acids and poisons that are circulating in the blood; even the valves of the heart are often affected, resulting in palpitation or something, far more serious. Rheu matism does not always come on with a storm of pains; its growth is often gradual. Little pains begin tugging at the muscles or wandering from joint to joint as winter approaches, or the weather is unsettled and changeable.but they increase with each recurring attack, and nothing is more certain than that this insidious disease will at last get you completely in its power Louisville, Ky., March 27, '02. bentlemen : I am glad to say that S. S. S. has cured me of Rheumatism. About two years ago I suffered from Rheumatism In my knees and feet, my ankles swelling so that I could not put on my shoes. " This continued for several months, during which time I was applying liniments and going by my physi cian's directions, but derived no benefit. I was told of 3. S. S. and tried It. I Imme diately got relief, and in six months waa entirely well. D. J. Duane, 2108 Floyd St. and almost before vou realire it ioints are swollen and locked, muscles contracted and stiff, and you are a chronic sufferer from Rheumatism. You can never conquer this deep-seated disease with external remedies that give only partial or temporary relief, nor by flooding the system with Alkali and Potash mixtures, which break down the digestion and endanger the health, while the disease is left to pursue its destructive work. No remedy brings such prompt and lasting relief in rheumatic troubles as S. S. S., which, attacks the disease in the blood, neutralizes the acids and stimulates all the blood making organs, it removes trom tne system an poisonous suDstanees, purifies and enriches the thin acid blood, and when the Uric Acid salts and the gritty particles are dislodged and drenched out of the aching muscles and joints, the patient is happily relieved for all time of the discomforts and misery of Rheu matism.
