The University of Pennsylvania Football team played a practice game -with the Athletic Association of Camden's eleven at Riverton Park. Camden, yesterday afternoon and although the red and blue won by a score of to 0 they did not a very favorable impression on the 1500 or more enthusiasts who witnessed the contest. In fact, the people across the river were greatly disappointed with the showing made by the college boys. Their play was careless and at times of a very ragged order. The Jerseymen were booked to play the University scrubs, but yesterday Captain Knipe sent word to Manager V'Meeteer that the team which would line up against Princeton on Saturday next would be over "for a little practice." The affair was kept very quiet.

Even the players of the A. A. C. did know they were to meet the big men until a few moments before their arrival. Captain Knipe was afraid that by advertising the appearance of the regular Pennsylvania eleven, Princeton would have a chance to have some of her "spotters" present learn a "thing or two." Description of the Gnme.

Play was called at 3.45 o'clock. The Camdenites won the toss and took the western goal, having the advantage of the wind. After the kick off sylvania captured the ball and started off by trying to get around the ends. Osgood made a fine run of thirty yards, when he was Beautifully tackled by Peterson. 1' The collegians once more tried the ends, but found the Jerseymen were good tacklers and very quickly abandoned that plan.

They then tried bucking the centre and were successful, making large gains. When with- in a few yards of the goal Williams I fumbled the ball. Pennsylvania got it again and by good centre bucking Knipe succeeded in making the first touchdown and Brooke kicked the goal. Pennsylvania soon gained another touchdown by bucking the centre, Woodruff carrying it over and, Brooke kicking the goal. Camden Brace When the teams again lined up the hrappd ur wonderf ullv and fought the collegians desperately and kept the ball in the centre for some time.

Finally Pennsylvania waltzed the ball through the line and Knipe took it over for a touchdowns Brooke kicked the goal. Camden again fought hard, and in one of the struggles Captain Knipe was slightly injured and retired in favor of Off. Brooke, who had been Playing a good game throughout, was injured a few minutes later and re-tired, Aitken taking his place.

LEHIGH SHUT OUT. Wa-rhl Cadets Win at Football Ten Points to Spaclal to The Inquirer. Annapolis, Nov. 3. The Naval Cadets shut out the Lehigh boys in the game of football this afternoon.

The score was 10 to 0. In the game between the two institutions last year the score was 12 to i in favor of the visitors. It might be said that the game was lost on fumbles, as Trafton dropped the ball nearly every time that it was passed to him at a critical moment. The visitors got within ten yards of a touchdown. There was an unusual amount of kicking, and as Bagley, for the Navy, is an expert the visitors usually suffered in these carnivals.

Izard made the first touchdown in the first half, but Bagley failed to kick a goal at an angle of forty-five degrees. During the second half the ball was kept near the centre and into the Lehigh territory most of the time. Bagley made the second touchdown and kicked the goal. The line-up was as follows: Naval Academy. Positions.

Time, two thirty-minute halves. Princeton, N. eye3 of all Princetonians are anxiously turned towards the coming struggle with Pennsylvania. Their apprehension was greatly increased to-night when It was learned that Brown had broken his leg in the practice to-day. The confidence of the undergraduates, which was partially restored Friday when Brown and Holly resumed play, is now again shattered.

Dr. McDonald is authority for the statement that Ward will not be able' to play Saturday. Morse's recovery is doubtful, with chances somewhat against him. The practice to-day, while showing improvement along certain lines, was on the whole discouraging. The backs were slow in accepting openings, while the linemen were weak on the defensive.

It has beep Captain Tren-chard's idea all along to work the men lightly with a view of avoiding injuries and over-trained condition; as a consequence the men are under-trained and at present in no condition to enter a game. During the remaining few days the playing will be hard during the two forty-minute halves, and the men will rapidly come into the pink of condition. Tie Game at West Chester. Special to The Inquirer.

ASAPH TRACK BOOKMAKERS SKIP OUT AND CIRCULAR JOE VENDIG GETS INTO A FIGHT. TRACK IN BAD CONDITION Three Favorites Win and the Pen--liters and Talent Split Even on the Day Mclhtyre Runs WeU in the Mnd. St. Asaph, Nov. 3.

Some excitement was raised among -the spectators by the attempted welching of employes of the "XX" book, one- of the nineteen stands doing business. Three parties whose names were given in a subsequent hearing as Anderson, of New York; Charles Sands, of Troy, and "Emery" tried to get away with $2740 of the book's money, but Anderson was caught. The money was, recovered and all the winning tickets cashed.

Secretary Mclntyre says the will prosecute the three. "Circular Joe" Vendig, the well-known turfman, and Sol Leichenstein, a bookmakers' to blows, but were quickly separated.

Most of the New York contingent left for their homes on a special train at 0 o'clock to-night to participate in the elections, so the track will be closed until next Wednesday. Heavy rains made the track in worse condition than at any previous time during the meeting and consequently all the races were slow.

He rides a 28-pound Sterling and lately was showing his faith in the wheel by walking on the spokes, even going so far as to Jump on them without so" much as bending them.

Spokes that will stand such a strain must be made of good material. Arthur Porter, of Waltham, this afternoon lowered three of Tyler's world records on the Waltham, track. Porter first lowered his own Class A record for a half, mile flying start to 35 seconds. His quarter in 2o 1-5 seconds was a new Class A record and the third in 34 1-5 seconds was the fastest ever ridden. Tyler then rode a paced 2-3 mile.

He failed to touch any record. Porter then came out against the standing start record paced. His time was quarter mile, 33 seconds; one-third, 42 seconds; half, 5S) 3-5 seconds; two-thirds, 1.13 2-5; three-quarters, 1.28 3-5 seconds: mile. 1.58 1-5. The second third was 4-5 of a second and the third quarter was 2-5 of a second faster than Tyler's world record, and the mile time was 1 4-5 seconds better than Porter's own Class A record.

The Warwick people are going to put on the market next season a high-grade 24 and 2(-inch boys' and girls' wheel which will by far exceed anything that has heretofore been sold at the" prices. It will be a $125 wheel, but sold at $50 and $00. The Pennsylvania Bicycle Company, Broad and Arch streets, expect to have a consignment of them in time for the season's opening. 'f Yesterday-' afternoon several members of the Time Wheelmen, under Captain Cain, left the Broad Street Station for a two-days' outing at Lancaster. They expect to return to the city some time during this afternoon.

These runs have been a prominent feature of the club for several seasons past, each outing being designated by an appropriate name. The late invasion of the town by the was very suggestive for this season, and Captain Cain at once decided to have the run known as the Brownie run. The little characters were worn "conspicuously by each- member on the run and are destined to become a decided hit. Last evening the Century Wheelmen" held an athletic entertainment and smoker in the club gymnasium. Wrestling, club swinging, exhibition on the parallel bars and an interesting wind-up with the gloves constituted the program.

Probably one of the most- conspicuous bicycle signs in the city is that of the 'Pennsylvania Bicycle Company, adjoining the "Penn's" clubhouse. How this sign came to be placed there was. novel in the extreme. The club wanfed a new fence, as the old one was worn out and the property looked bad. President MacOwtn brought the matter up and proposed an assessment, -which did not please Mr.

Le Cato, manager of the Pennsylvania Bicycle Company, who arose in the meeting and said he build a fence and keep it in repair for live years, and his offer was snapped up. Two -days later the fence was there; so was the ad. which thousands read daily. It was a shrewd scheme and it cost $300,. but It has paid him already.

Herman Bruny, a driver for Joseph T. Reck, baker, arrested late Friday night on a warrant sworn out' by John A. Wells, ex-champion of the Pennsylvania Bicycle Club's 100-mile course, and manager for Charles S. Smith agents for the Rambler bicycles, for the larceny, of a wheel. had bought and hired several wheels of this firm, and early in October the one in question was hired, to him.

His failure to return it resulted in an investigation," when it was found he had recently been dismissed from the employment of Reck for appropriating money collected for the firm to his own use. When Mr. Reck made this startling discovery he questioned Bruny, who acknowledged the theft. In order to avoid arrest and exposure he gave Mr. Reck the hired bicycle and agreed to make good the balance in a short time.

Mr. Wells called at Mr." Reek's store early Friday morning -for the; wheel, and when he found the condition of affairs immediately swore out a warrant for Bruny's arrest. In court yesterday morning Bruny was held in $(500 bail for trial. Later it was alleged that he had been signing Mr. Reek's name to receipts, neglecting to place any after the signature, and the money thus collected he had also failed to turn over to his employer.

The total amount of his shortage is between $300 and $400. 1 JOHNS HOPKINS BEATEN. Haverford Gains jthe Victory by a Narrow Mararin. Special to The. Inquirer.

Baltimore, Nov. 3. Haverford won from Johns Hopkins this afternoon by a score of 3 to 4.

After the first twenty minutes Johns Hopkins rushed the ball over the line, but the goal was missed.

Score, 4 to 0. Haverford kicked off but the ball was fumbled and the Quakers got the ball on their twenty yard line.

No scoring was done in the second half. At one time had the ball on Haverford's Ten-yard line, but hard play kept the ball the most of the time In the middle of the field.

GENTRY TO MEET ON TUESDAY'. Allx Will Go to Beat Her Record and Flying; Jib Will Try to Pace a Mile in Less Than. Two Minutes, With Running; Mate. All the fast flyers which met at the Point Breeze track on Friday go to Belmont to-morrow and Tuesday. The heavy rain yesterday morning made the Philadelphia Driving Park track unfit for re.cord breaking, and yesterday's events were indefinitely postponed.

Robert 2.01, and John R. Gentry, 2.03, will fight it out again. For the fourth time this season they will meet at the Belmont Driving Park Tuesday afternoon and finally settle the doubted question of supremacy between them. The meeting at Point Breeze was unsatisfactory, not only to the owners of John R. Gentry, but to C.

J. Hamlin, the owner of Robert who says that the race of Friday was not a fair contest for more than one reason. The owners of John R. Gentry claim that Friday's track did not suit their horse, who, they say, prefers a soft track, such as Belmont, and possesses little speed over a hard course like that of Point Breeze. -It was evident also that the Western horse was not in near so good a condition as he should have been when he met the crack pacing champion, and his owners claim that he was so short of work that not near like himself.

Immediately after his defeat on Friday Gentry was driven two conditioning miles by Myron McHenry, and yesterday he was jogged and exercised and he Is being worked in prime condition. Myron McHenry said yesterday that he felt confident that he could get his charge in such condition that he could push Robert to the fastest mile ever made in this city. He said it was not improbable that a repetition of the Nashville race would occur, when Gentry and he paced an exciting dead heat. He denied that Gentry's cut leg had reopened, and invited a number of people to inspect the Western horse and satisfy themselves. The entire Hamli Salisbury-Welch string moved from Point Breeze to the Belmont track yesterday and they will be Introduced and exercised at that place this morning.

The lot Included Robert John R. Gentry.Alix, Flying Jib, Fantasy, Directly, Azote, Nightingale, Phoebe Wilkes and a half dozen others, the most valuable collection of. animals ever seen together at one time. Owing to the unsatisfactory ending of Friday's race the meeting of the cracks on Tuesday will be all the more acceptable to the general public, particularly as the management announces that both horses will be In that condition which will insure a meritorious race. The meeting opens to-morrow, when "Sweet Little Alix." the queen, and Directly, Champion two-year-old, go to beat their records.

Alix showed on Friday that she was in superb condition. She danced and pranced and her sleek coat glistened like silk. Directly, too, looked like the prince that he is, and his condition was noted by the experts who- saw him. They will be driven against their records tomorrow, and their condition is indicative that phenomenal time will be made. The program to-morrow also includes a 2.12 class, trotting, and a 2.15 class, pacing.

Both have numerous local entries. Beside the big match race of Tuesday, a sensational feature will be Flying Jib's attempt to beat two minutes. He will be accompanied by a fleet running mate, and his unprepared trial of Friday, when he went in 2.00. shows that he is in record-breaking condition. Fantasy, 2.07, the four-year-old Champion, will also go against the record for that age, and he is sleek enough to closely approach that mark.

The 2.0i trotting class will be a feature of Tuesday's program, which is one of the most novel and sensational ever offered in this city. The Bingham House cafe was filled with local trotting men last night, and the change of program from Point Breeze to Belmont caused general discussion. George Scattergood, the lessee of Point Breeze, claimed that yesterday's races should not have been postponed. "The track was fit for racing at 1 o'clock," declared Mr. Scattergood.

It was at first agreed that yesterday's events should be given at Point Breeze to-morrow, but subsequently Monroe Salisbury made the arrangement for a two days meeting at Belmont. Andy Welch said that he had not declared the races off, but that Messrs. Salisbury and Hamlin, had refused to start their horses on a heavy track. Dr. Marshall, the vice-president of the Belmont Driving Club, said that President Frank Bower had made arrangements in the West for the appearance of Alix and Robert J.

at Belmont, but that the Point Breeze people had stepped in and offered better terms. Tbe Oakley Races. Oakley, Ohio, Nov. 3. To-day's races resulted as First Race Eleven-sixteenths of a mile.
