Detectives McQualde and Demmel visited the house at 7 o'clock and found that It had been ransacked from top to bottom. The carpets had even been raised In the hope that money was concealed under them. A fine dresser was hacked to pieces with a hatchet and most of the booty obtained In It.

One enthusi astic man wagered $100 to $200 on me Jt fnaera. The team of the Western university returned from its trip from West Virginia last Jluturday.

The trip was not a glorious; success. The eleven played the West irrinia university team at Fairmont on Friday and lost, by a score of 5 to 0. On Saturday the team was to have played at worgantown, Dut dm not, necausc a man Vno lived near the grounds was dying. On, this account the game was called off. To-morrow W.

U. P. will plav at Greens-burg. The players will take tlrclr last practice to-day. Only twice did It look like a touchdown for Pennsylvania.

Once McCracken got through the line in a scrimmage Cleanly ati'1 looked for a moment as if he waff -ig to elude Daly, but the lunge he made with his hands retarded his speed and he was thrown after a 20-yard run and the goal not far away. Hare got past the players once, but in trying to push off a tackier he slowed up and was downed. At no other time in the game did hope for a touchdown swell the Penn-sylvanlans' breasts. There were two serious circumstances (which aided In Pennsylvania's defeat. The first kickoff fumbled by Coombs gave Harvard a touchdown almost before the gams began, and the fumbling in passing the ball not only retarded gains through the line, but also hindered the execution of Penn's trick plays.

This fumbling ca'n be placed UDon no one player, The fumbling of the back field was evident to every one. Harvard took exceptionally 4 good advantage of every opportunity to 'tSaln. Pennsylvania has no kick coming on the decisions of the oflldals. Cmplre DashMl gave the best of satisfaction, and, while Referee McCluiigs decisions were satisfactory, he appeared a little overzealous for Harvard at times. Philadelphia That the guards back failed In making ground as usual against Harvard was a surprise.

However, the Pennsylvanians are still firm advocates of the guards back, and think it superior to all other plays. They say, and truly, that the guards back as played to-day is -iot uy tha usual standard. -Philadelphia rd. Coach 'Woodruff did not care to discuss Saturday's game very much, but said that Ft" nsyhanla could not hope to always wi He thought it was about Harvard's til to win a gume from Pennsylvania, anyway. The start was a little discouraging and he said probably affected the after-playing of the team.

In regard to Pennsylvania's playing, he said it was not up to championship form. Coach Bull, of the Latrobe team, said after the game was over that he couldn't figure out just how Lang secured the ball ao made the touchdown for Latrobe. Bull says he didn't see Lang until latter got fairly under headway foivfreensburg's goal line. Paul Dashiell, who acted as umpire In the Harvard-Pennsylvania game, says Harvard won because she played sure, consistent, good football, and made few If any mistakes. Pennsylvania's pluya were as powerful ss ever and her team played with splendid spirit, but her game was ruined by disastrous fumbling.

can't ay much for their stolidity, but, when it comes to taciturnity, Manager Nellis Dalton, of the 'varsity eleven, cau testify that the redskins are so silent that they don't even answer questions. Dalton hasn't heard a word' for thre idays which would show him whether tf.e 'Carlisle Indians are going to. play In Cincinnati on Thanksgiving or hot.

CincinnathPost. A musical contes' a well as a football battle took place i Soldiers' field Saturday. The Cni of Pennsylvania band of 40 pieces marched on te the Held. The musicians, all students, were neatly dressed In black trousers, blue coats and with red trimmir.es. and.

as they i marched around the field playing Pennsylvania's celebrated march, "The Red and the Blue," they were cheered to the echo. Then there was another blare of horns 'and the eliat tf drums and he crowd waited again. This was the Harvard Uni- ersity band in street clothes. They were students and thev aved eauallv as iell as their Pennsylvania rivals. Around gridiron they marched and the crowd t.led.

Pennsylvania's band took up a ctlon of reserved seats In the wpst stand.

is bearing up under the great weight of sorrow with remarkable Itortitude. Her only hope now Is to de-jfeat afld conquer D. A. C. next Saturday.

There are some people here who A-herish the belief that a great feat Ilka (that can be accomplished. Those pople jwho thus believe can conscientiously tie (termed genuine football cranks, but they Rr admitted to Ua expert Judges of the tame as it Is played these days. They figure that Greensburg will defeat D. C. fft A.

by a-good score aud that the ng the local crowd cnauipiona. The Tigers will begin hard work to-day with the determination down Vale. The "chief obstacle to overcome is the crippled condition of the men. Wheeler is in Philadelphia, undergoing treatment for a lame back. Kafer was carried off the field at West Point unconscious.

Heardslev has not recovered from the Injury to his knee and is practically- out. of the game. The condition of Wheeler is more serious than that of any of the others, and the chances are decidedly against his playing on Saturday. Prom the way things look now Hutchinson and Ayers will probably play at Quarter and fullback respectively. Black will plav one halfback and Eeardsley the other if he recovers from his Injuries in time.

There were over 2 '')0 nald admissions at the Latrobe game Saturday, while there were only 1.74J paid tickets received at Greensburg. Latrobe. as stated in the Press yester day, will play Pittsburg college at La- irone to-morrow. Latrobe is still celebrating. Biff Heffelfineer.

Waller Cainn (juarter. back De Saules, Hilly Bull and other noted Yale men were at Cambridge Saturday to see Harvard win and gain valuable pointers. Harry Peecher says: "Never on a foot ball field has such noor handllnsr of kicks been seen as was shown by Pennsylvania's halfbacks. It was a certainty that every time Haughton swung his leg Mr. Coombs would miss the pigskin and the crimson ends were on the spot to see that no advantage was taken of the fumble.

It Is not unfair to state that Harvard won the gime by kicking, and by no other means. To be sure, Dlbblee did his wiggling act and dodged off many runs that were pretty exciting, but and up their earn and it would not affect the result. It was the well-regulated punting of Haughton and the effectual mufling of Coombs that told the tale."

membership rare. Pennsylvania, although behind New York for several weeks past In the number of new applications sent in, has been steadily gaining through renewals. A new method of securing renewals has been adopted In this section. Vice Consul T. J.

Kcenan, secured lists of expired memberships for Pittsburg, Allegheny and vicinity. These are put in the hands of efficient leaguti workers, who, by a personal canvass ar able to secure many renewals of parties who would otherwise have dropped out. The scheme has met with very encouraging Buccess so far, and will be permanently adopted. The li. A.

"What Do I Got for My Dollar?" la not the only question of interest to the thoughtful valiant, companionable league member. 'What lo 1 Ulve tor My foliar?" is a subject of equally as much Importance. There can be no harm in- reiterating the statement that the league member who is in It only tor the material benefits the savings in cash to which his ticket entitles him, and who cares nothing for nor contributes anything to the fraternal worth of the organization, is not the hope, the anchor, the keystone, and all that sort of thing, of the great brotherhood. The league's material benefits are of con-Fiderable moment indeed they are "a whole lot" but they are not everything.

The league emblem should stand as a fraternal pledge on the part of the person wearing It to maKe the league member-Ship of every brother and sister member a hlghlv-prlzed possession, as pleasant as It is profitable. "It is more blessed (o give than to receive." really means much. In an organi- Batlon in which there are such happy fraternal possibilities as are possessed by the j. A. a spirit of good fellowship, of good comradery, is everything.

It will be well for the members.

TRUTH KKW BMMlllMJ. A (iranlle front Work to Be Completed In I'onr Months. The erection of the Union trust Com pany' new building, on Fourth avenue, Is being watched with Interest by many In Pittsburg on account of some of the extraordinary difficulties that had to be overcome. Among them was the work of placing the huge granite columns In position, which was begun early last week. There are four of them, and each of them weight tons.

When work stopped Saturday evening two of them had been placed In position and the other two had been delivered on the ground. The work of raising them will take most of this week. The columiiB uro of the best New Hamp shire granite. They come from quarries at Concord, and we-e shipped on the -troi trongest or gonuoia. curs, rney arrived iiJxhed and complete, and if an accident should befall ono of them It would take three months before It could be replaced.

The columns are 22 feet long, 3 feet 10 Inches In diameter at the base and 8 feet 1 Inch at the top. Kach one represents un outlay of about A crew of ex- perlenced riggers was brought from New Kngland especially to handlo these columns, and In all about men are necessary to handle the immense block and tackle. The breaking of any part of the arrangement would endanger the lives of a dozen workmen and the scores of spectators constantly on the ground. The new building Is to be completed and occupied by March USUI. The structure will be absolutely fireproof.

There will be 450 tons of granite in lhe front of the building, while within will be a iW-ton urmor plate vault. It will be the first vault of its kind, not only here but also In the world, and will cost $100,000. On either side of the entrance will be the president's ofllce and reception room, while on the second floor will be the directors' room. The lighting and heating apparatus, contrary to the usual plan, will be on the third floor, and tha heat will be forced down through galvanized pipes. There will be no culinary department or dining rooms In the building.

Those In charge the system of serving meals In the building, so generally adopted by bunks, hns not been a success, and the officers nnd employes of the trust company will get their meals as they choose on the. outside. The building complete, Including armor plate vault, will cost about and will be equal to any building of Its kind in the country.

James O'Neill believes that he has this year surrounded hlmpclf with the best company lie has had for some time. His leading lady is Miss Minnie iiadellffe, favorably known for hT work Willi Joseph Jefferson, Sol Hmlth Russell and two or three stock companies In the larger eastern cities. Kdmund D. Hieese, the leading man, won ids spurs with Mile. Hchan, and Frederick Hartley, leading juvenile man.

lust year played the same line of parts with Margaret Slather. In "Nathan Hale," the historical drama In which Nat Goodwin will shortly be seen at the Alvln, the comedian has scored probably hla greatest success. Mr. Goodwin's method of producing a new play at the end of each season, lo tlnd out Its merits, has proved most profitable. In this way.

If the play la not a success, another Is Immediately put In rehearsal. Last season at the end of Mr. Goodwin's C'htcnKo engagement, lie produced Nathan Hale." Its succeaa was instantaneous. So far this season Mr. Goodwin has been playing nothing hut "Nathan Hale," and everywhere to the largest receipts he has ever known.

Pittsburg Is to have the reigning eensatlon, "Cyrano de Hergeac." It Is now packing three theaters In New York, two In Philadelphia, and twu In lloaton. It is also running in London and Paris. It la to be given at the Grand with the present stock company augmented especially for the occasion. Jt will be given very soon; in fact, Just as soon as scenery can be built, costumes made anil the Immense number of people rtipiirod for the production properly reheanwd. It Is estimated that 200 people will be on tli sttage.

Artist Hrad-don has already added 12 men In his corpa of tasistiints, ami 'lu carpenters have gone to work for. the scenery. The costumes are made from the plates of the Parisian production, and the translation Is almost identical witn tnat given by Richard Mansfield at the 3arrlrk the- ter, New York. It certainly IB tne. most stupendous undertaking v( the fjranda management, covering the distance In 37 hours and S3 minutes.

Count Campau Is considered a clrl-arch, but he ranks as the premier base runner In western league society. Tommy Burns has not yet decided on the make-un of his Infield for next sea son, though It Is a 1D to 1 bet that Mc-4L Cormlck is to be shifted to second base, with Connor as a utility lnnelder. Frank Hough, who has been writing "Wait until next year" once a season, for the consolation of the qunker city football fans for many years, offered the advice to Pennsylvania's disappointed football cranks yesterday.

Billy Hallman has returned to the stage and is the low comedy half of a song and dance sketch team. Billy's friends hope that the versatile William will score more hits on the stage than he made on the diamond last season. Twirler Billy Donovan, of the ienators, the Ditcher with the wild west boomerang curves, one of which left a dent In the skull of Dummy Hoy, will probably be farmed out to Jake Wells' Richmond, team for next season Umpire Tom Lynch will return to the major league staff of umpires again next season. Of course. Tom filed his usual farewell proclamation with President Young when be returned to New Britain in October, but Secretary Kobert Younir Is satislled that Tom will rontlriuo to play the role of the Chesterfield of the Indicator handlers for at Jenst cflio more season.

Joe Campbell says: "It now develops that the meeting of the board of arbitration at the Waldorf-Astor two weeks ago stirred up an undercurrent of private and confidential business; that the 'routine business was a side Issue, and that cer-tatti suggestions were made with a view to adopting some plan to strengthen New York, Brooklyn and St. Louis. The undercurrent of suggestions of this sub rosa conclave will rise to the surface at the December meeting If the reportorlal crowbar of the major league, baseball writers can secure a strangle hold on the mem bom of the board." Ren Mulford, tells the whole truth find nothing but the truth when he says that a lot of nonsense has been spouled lately. Here Is a sample of Capt. Joe Kelley's ftoth: "It Is a great mistake on the part of the baseball magnates not to offer financial incentives to the clubs leading In the league championship race each season.

fiuoh Incentives would act as a stimulus to the players." HtimtiluH to the players? If there are languid hothouse plants In the business who need a stimulus of that sort, the urame will be better off without them. More fortunes have been lost than made In the muc-nates' end of baseball. This is plain Kiirth, not Utopia. If professional baseball players must needs be eoaxed to take an Interest In the game, then the sooner professional baseball dies the better. Ned Hanlon's recent bitter indictment of the orioles for Indifference is remembered.
