Football Gossip i Princeton will piay the Orange Athletic Club's team at Orange Oval on Saturday. Harry Olirer, formerly, guard on the Pennsylvania team, Is captain of the Orange eleven, and says his team, will score on. the Tigers and make them hustle to win. The Orange team will be made Up from the following players: Coyne and Kohler. right end; Mintzer and Kem-ble, quarter-back; Hopkins and Fielder, left half-back; 'Millard and Cuming, right half-back; Dyer and Bird, full-back; Stillman and Mohor, centre; Oliver, left guard; Uffenheimer, left tackle; Collamore, left end; Buell, right guard; Marshall and Hutchinson, right tackle.

To-day Ursinus plays Lafayette at Easton. The Collegeville team is in good physical condition and should put a fair game. Ursinus will line up as follows: Right end, Shelley; right tackle, Witzel; right guard, Heffner; centre, McKee; left guard, Rahn; left tackle, Kopenhaver; left end, Zimmerman; quarter-back; Kelper; right halfback, Captain Hartman; left Cadwallader; full-back, In reply to "a letter from the manager of the Yale University Base Ball Association, asking if Harvard would make dates for a series of games next season, W. Moore, graduate manager of Harvard athletics, has replied: "That if usual football game between the two universities is arranged this fall, Harvard will be pleased to make the-customary arrangement to meet Yale in base ball. If the football game is not arranged, Harvard will feel obliged, much to give up for some years her athletic contests with Yale." The game with Lafayette at Franklin Field, on Saturday, promises to be the toughest struggle that Pennsylvania will have here.

this season, When the Faston boys held Princeton down to 1-1 points it did not cause much comment, as the game was played on a muddy field, with all conditions unfavorable to good football; but after their victory over Cornell on Saturday, football enthusiasts began to see in Lafayette a most formidable team. In Barclay and TValbridge Lafayette has two of the best half-backs playing today. It will be remembered that the former made a number of long runs through Pennsylvania's line in the game last year. It looks as if Lafayette would keep Pennsylvania's score in the twenties, and if she does this it will be the best performance of the year against the Quakers. On account of the Harvard-Princeton game, on November 2, at Princeton, there is some talk of having the Pennsylvania-Chicago A.

C. game, scheduled for Franklin Field on that date, flayed on Friday, November 1. The Freemansburg football team has been reorganized with "William Gross as captain and W. E. Bachman, manager.

Captains Lea, and Brewer, of th Princeton and Harvard football elevens, have at last agreed upon rules to govern the game on November 2. The rules adopted are the same as the Tale-Princeton code, with the exception of a compromise on the number of men allowed back of the line and the fair catch rule. In addition to the four usual backs, two other players will be allowed back of the line, either tackles or ends. Any formation can be made by such players, provided it be not more than five yards back of the line, but no man is allowed to start before the ball. is put In play.

The rule on a fair catch provides that after making a fair "catch the player must first touch the ball to the ground before running with it or passing it to another player. If he does not run with the ball he may have the option of a first down on the spot at which the ball is caught, or he may kick the ball from that spot, the opposing side not being permitted to line up nearer than ten yards from the ball. J-'. FRESHMEN jSOVICE GAMES Promising Material Hrougrlit Ont in Pennsylvania's Firtit Year Men. The freshmen novice games of the University of Pennsylvania took place yesterday before a small crowd on the old field.

The different events were, on the whole, well contested, and some promising material was brought out. R.D.Hoffman won the hundred and quarter in very easy fashion, and with a little improvement in style he will be heard from later on. L. J. Lane won the half handily and i3 another likely candidate.

The bicycle race furnished good sport, being especially well contested. C. Williams and J. B. Corser proved to be very good men, going the distance in five minutes, ten seconds.

W. G. Douglass rode a trial two miles against the watch and did it in 4 minutes, 58 3-5 seconds. He could have gone much faster but the pacing was too slow. 1 The Snmmaries.

23. The Tigers scored 22 points against Union to-day in two halves of twenty and fifteen minutes. In view of the short time given nion to prepare for the game. Captain Lea allowed them to play under the Harvard-Pennsylvania code of rules, and the Tigers were badly handicapped in facing their mass plays and wedges, in which seven men started from behind the line. Princeton's exhibition was far from being satisfactory, the interference and team piay being well calculated to inspire fear in the hearts of their anxious supporters along the side lines.

Rhodes, at right guard, was lamentablv weak, and the Union backs had little difficulty plunging through him for repeated gains. Poe, at quarter, passed accurately and played a thoroughly heady game. In the absence of Gailey, Dickey and Hunt played at centre, the latter playing a strong defensive game, but getting into the plays slowly. Pope returned Sweetland'S kick-off, Union losing the ball on a fumble. Baird and Bannard olunsred thrnnsrh tho' centre for small gains, and four minutes after piay Riggs deposited the oval behind the enemy's, goal Baird failed to kick the' goal.

Church returned the kick-off to the centre of the field, but the Tigers lost the- ball- on a fumble. Failing to. gain Princeton sent Riggs through tfaylor for eight yards, and Baird circled the end for the second touchdown. Sweetland and Baird exchanged kicks, the former getting twenty yard3 the better of it. Union directed her mass, plays against Rhodes and advanced ten but lost the ball on Smith's fumble.

Bannard skirted right end behind strong interference for fifteen yards and Baird contributed ten more. The ball oscillated between centre and Union's five-vard mark for ten minutes. Smith finally being downed behind his goal line, scoring a safety for Princeton. Poe Tolled the score up to for the first half by eluding Mallory at end. Union rallied in the second half and the Tigers scored but one touchdown.

Lea, Baird and Poe did the best work for Princeton, while the work of Taylor, KUis and Beckwith, of Union, was commendable. The teams lined up as follows: Princeton. Positions. Unions. Johnston and JIallory and Hinson Left end Hilton Church Left tackle.

Judge Leatherman's decision was reversed, and the prize fight law sustained. Corbett was remanded back to the custody of the. Sheriff of Garland county. Chief Justice Bunn, in delivering the opinion, severely criticised Chancellor Leatherman, saying he had no authority for his action in the habeas corpus case. GETTING OUT OF TOWN.

The Florida Athletic Club hits disbanded.

It was discovered early to-day that Jack Dalton, the mysterious stranger who unearthed the alleged $10,000 offer of the Hot Springs Athletic Club, had not been authorized by that club. Brady openly accused him of being a fakir. In rebuttal, he unfolded a three-sheet lithograph- in colors of himself. During thre entire afternoon he appeared to be considerably worried over the harsh criticisms which were passed upon his conduct of last night, and finally, in self-defense, he issued the following. card to the public: "My name is Jack Dalton, and I hail from Chicago.

I am on the level. Patsy Fallon, Malachy Hogan and Paddy Carroll, of Chicago, will vouch for me. I have nothing whatever to do with Fitzsimmons. I came here to see a fight and my only reason for getting tangled up in the enterprise was my love for the sport, I tried to get Julian to make some concession, and finally sprung this offer on him. The offer was made in good faith.

I think I could have raised the money in twenty minutes. But that is ail past and gone. "I want to say right here that I have washed my hands of the whole business. I turned my Interests over to Dan Stuart. I am going to get right back to Chicago.

It was rumored that I was sent North from New Orleans by Fitzsimmons' backers. The real object of my visit here Is nobody's I have made up mv mind never to. manage another fight." RACING ATJX)UISVILLE Carillon Wins the 2.18 Trot From Ida' Grecnlnnder. LOUISVILLE. Oct.

THIRTY-THIRD DEGREE MASOSS. Consideration of Reports and Elections Consnnie the Day. WASHINGTON, Oct. 23. At the third day's session of the Supreme Council of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite Masons the discussion of the report of the Judiciary Committee was resumed.

A portion of the report was adopted and the remainder referred to ac ommittee. Routine matters pertaining to the Order and the annual meeting occupied considerable of the time. The following officers were elected to-day: Grand Commander, William A. Hershiser, Columbus, Ohio; Lieutenant Grand Commander, Major W. Bayliss, Washington; Grand Minister of State, Granville A.

Frombus, Grand Rapids, Grand Treasurer, General David W. Thompson, New York; Grand Secretary General John G. Barker. IN THE LAND OF THE MIKADO In Japan nothing- Is fixed but the throne. Perpetual change is identical with State policy.

Ministers, Governors, superintendents, inspectors, all high civil and military officials, are shifted at irregular and suprisingly short interyals, and hosts of smaller officials scatter each time with the whirl. Not to dwell upon the fact that even during the comparatively brief period of her written history Japan has had more than sixty capitals, of which the greater number have completely disappeared. It may be broadly stated that every Japanese city is rebuilt within the time of a generation. Some temples aoid a few colossal fortresses offer exceptions; but. as a general rul, the Japanese city changes its substance, if not its form, in the lifetime of a man.

Fires, earthquakes and many other causes partly account for this; the chief reason, is that houses are not built to last. i Rivers shift their courses, coasts their outline, plains their level; volcanic peaks heighten or crumble; valleys are blocked by lava-floods or landslides; lakes appear and disappear. Even the matchless shape of Fuji, that snowy miracle which has been the inspiration of innumerable artist? for centuries, has been changed within the last few years. The roofs of their unstable houses suggest the nomad The ordinary dwell-ling-place is built iri less than five days. Before a Japanese moves he has nothing to consider.

He simply leaves tne place he dislikes and goes to the place wishes, without any trouble. There is nothing to prevent him. Poverty-is not an obstacle but a stimulus. Impediments he has none, or only such as he can dispose of in a few minutes. Distance have no significance for him.

The gods, indeed, remain haunt their homes upon the hills, diffuse a soft, religious awe through the twilight of groves, perhaps because they are without form and substance. Their shrines seldom pass utterly into oblivion like the dwellings of men. But every. Shinto temple is necessarily rebuilt at more or less brief intervals. Straw sandals are replaced at every stage of a journey.

The robes consist of a few simple widths loosely stitched together for wearing and unstitched again for washing." Fresh chop sticks are served to each new guest at a hotel. The mattings of their homes are renewed every autumn. LITTLE OF EVERYTHING If the Atlantic Ocean could have a layer of water G00O feet deep removed from its surface it would only reduce the width of that body of water one-half. A race was recently rowed at Deal, England, between four four-oared crews of boatmen over GO years of age. The winning oarsmen averaged 7U years, while their coxswain was 85.

A chapel in honor of St. Paul gave a new name to the Minnesota city. It was originally called Pig's Eye. from a nickname given to a one-eyed Frenchman, who kept a drinking shanty, at the place. At the Santa Caterlna Cathedral, Genoa, may be seen a crescent made of an emerald, which is eight inches between the points.

Tradition says that it was a present from Solomon to the Queen of Sheba. Denver, was named after James W. Denver, an ex-Governor of Kansas. Denver is situated on the site of two towns, St. Charles and Aurora, which were consolidated in 1860 and the new name adopted.

The first invention of the organ has been ascribed to Ctesibius, of Alexandria, who lived B. C. 170. But the period when this instrument was introduced into the churches of Western Europe is rather uncertain. Pope Vitalian is supposed tto have been the first to adopt it, about the year 670.

Forest looked like a good thing in the first race and the talent plunged on him at the prohibitive price of 1 to 2, and then got -left for their trouble, as he was beaten by Johnny, 5 to 2.

Memoir, another odds on choice in the second race, was also beaten, Theresa, 10 to 1, winning handily, with Senator second and the favorite third.

A. W. who has not yet received a ballot for the election will please send his name, number and ad-dressto the Cycling Editor of The In- Entries for the Pyle twenty-mile road race, which is scheduled to take place on Saturday afternoon, over the Kennett pike course, at Wilmington, closed on Monday. About seventy-five men sent in their names and asked to be handicapped for the occasion, among them being some of the riders in this-section of the country, which include Fred Sims, of this city, and a member of the Columbia team, F. H.

Eddy, of Columbus, Ohio whose record for twenty-five miles is 104 2-5; Charlie Church, the Rambler C- List, of Syracuse; J. W. Concklin, of New Jersey; Walter Dickerson, of Riverton; Nicklinson, of Palmyra; L. C. Johnson, the Delaware Class rider; Bob Wier, the champion road rider of Delaware, and several others.

The handicapping will be done by the Race Committee of the Wilmington Bicycle Club, which consists of Captain Billy Kirk, chairman; Frank Turner and C. S. Rice. It was expected that Frank Turner, the fastest rider in the State of Delaware, would participate, but under the rules of racing, he being one of the handicappers, he cannot, in justice to the other riders, ride. Another thing.

Turner, after his last ride at Wilmington, retired from the track and gave up training. His not riding is a source of great disappointment to his many friends in that city, who looked for great things from him in this race. The race will be started promptly at 3 P. M. Parties from this city desiring to attend can take the 1.12 from Broad Street Station and arrive there in time to get to the course and see the start.

The Penn Wheelmen are not meeting with such uphill work as was at first anticipated, for they have visited a number of clubs, and the first two to signify their intention of participating in the gigantic lantern parade are the Acme Wheelmen and the Ladies' Bloomer Club. Five other clubs have agreed to appoint committees to work in conjunction with the Penn boys, and they will report definitely in the near future. However, they all expect to report favorably. The date cannot be named until all clubs have reported. From the large amount of enthusiasm already existing, the indications are that the number in line will run up in the thousands, and Philadelphia, after all, will be in the swim.

A large force of unattached riders will turn out. Last Friday afternoon Charles Stevens, alias "Texas," called at the store of the Darrah Cycle Company and asked Mr. Darrah to loan him a wheel to ride in Black Sam White's races on Saturday. Mr. Darrah, knowing Stevens as one of the trainers at the Tioga' track, gave him a light wheel to use, with the promise that it was to be handed over to Mr.

Darrah at the track after the races. When Mr. Darrah arrived at the track he was very much surprised not to find "Texas" there, and on inquiring he was greater astounded to learn that the "would-be rider" had not been about since Friday noon. Mr. Darrah at once suspected that Texas had skipped with his wheel, and when he had not appeared yesterday noon he became convinced that the wheel had been stolen.

A warrant was later sworn out for the arrest of the young man, charging him with the theft of several things which have been missing of late at the track. "Texas" came here from Syracuse, where he was a trainer. He at once set out for Tioga and has lived there all summer, sleeping in the dressing rooms and eating wherever he could get a bite. He did nothing excepting an odd Job now and then. No subject could be brought up which he did not know all about, and for this he was christened' by the men on the track the "Know-it-All.

He became so obnoxious to the racers that the Tioga officials on two or three occasions ordered him to leave the grounds and not return again, but this he did not heed. The police are on his tracks- and they expect to locate him within the next twenty-four hours. Several of the local dealers are expecting their 1896 models of wheels to arrive daily, and It may be expected that next week will develop some surprises in th way of bicycle constructions. An accident which came near resulting seriously occurred yesterday at Chestnut and Ninth streets. A woman was riding down the smooth asphalt street, which had just been soaked by one of the watering carts.

As she came near Ninth a trolley car came along and stopped; at the same time a car was coming up Ninth, which she could not see. and as Bh started to shoot in front of it her wheel slipped and threw her. The car was not under much headway and it was stopped after the fender had pushed the wheel and woman a few feet. She refused to give her name, but to an officer who was standing by she expressed herself rather forciblv on wet streets and said she would be heard from later on that question. tiuLLii miu oiuniti BICYCLES CHAS.

23. University of Pennsylvania Football team received a royal reception at the hands of Pittsburgers this afternoon, and at the same time met with a decided surprise at the hands of the eleven youns men representing the Duquesne Country and Athletic Club. Many graduates of the University live here, and they, with their friends, were out to cheer their favorites on to victory. T'ully 4XX) persons were on the grounds at Exposition Park when the boys lined up at 3.45. The University boys anticipated an easy victory, but five minutes of play convinced them that they were facing football players.

They soon got down to business, but try as they would the best they could do in the first half was to get a touchdown without kicking a goal. Hopes of local rooters were crushed somewhat in the second half, but at the close they had cause for rejoicing over the fact that the collegians had been kept down to the smallest score of the season 30 to O. Just as long as the visitors attempted (to break through the line just that long they failed to make substantial g-ains. On several occasions the local men came within a scratch of scoring. Young and Rose made brilliant runs.

Gelbert and Minds were the particular stars of the game on the visitors' part. Pennsylvania won the toss. Woodruff kicked off and Blair dropped on the ball after it had been fumbled. A series of runs brought the. ball to the ten-yard line, and Blair was sent over for a touchdown, but the ball rwas called "back to the eight-yard line for fcul The ball was grafl-ually pushed back to the twenty-yard line, when Gelbert made a fine run slid over for a touchdown.

It was give and take then for the rest of the half. Williams tried his trick kick over the right end, but Young nabbed the leather and made thirty-five yards before being downed. Time was called with the ball on Pennsylvania's thirty-five1, yard line. Blair was put out ot tn-e game iur slugging, but a minute later the ruling was rescinded and he resumed play. The collegians started the second half with a vim.

Woodruff was pushed over for a touchdown, but again no goal was kicked. Minds circled the left end for a forty yard run. Gelbert was sent over for a touchdown, ard Wharton kicked the goal.

Yale ran up her largest score to-day by defeating Williams 54 to 0. In aggressive play Yale showed marked improvement and found little difficulty in getting through Williams' line and around her ends for good gains. In defensive play, however, the old fault was manifest, and at one time Williams forced the ball to the blue's fifteen yard lino. Thome played until his leg was slightly injured, and was the life of the the team. When he retired, Benjamin took his place and made a magnificent showing.

lie made some brilliant end runs, and was responsible for the prettiest play of the game, when shaking off one tackier after another he rushed from the centre of the field down between Williams' goal posts. His tackling was sharp and he did some of the most, effective work on the Yale side in bi taking up the visitors' interference. DeWitt had rather an off day, and, fumbled badly, though a pretty run for a touchdown retrieved him. The best work in the Yale line was credited to Chadwick and Kodgers. The latter's rushes with the ball were irresistible and time after time he struck the Williams' line for long gains.

Cross nut up a. good game at centre, snapping the ball well, and holding Wright with ease, jerrems demonstrated trie fact that his old puntins ability has returned, by snaking some of the best kicks seen on the field this season. He aiso succeeded In kicking six out of eight trys for goals. The breaking tnrougn ana tacKimg ot Lee and the all around play of Draper were the features of Williams' game. No visitiner back this year has compared with Draper, whose ground gaining abilities are of the first order.

On several-occasions he made some startling runs dewn the field without assistance. Yale showed a diffsrent style of play than in her other heme frames, using end runs behind fair interference with very good effect. The line up follows: Yale. Positions. Williams.

WHERE THEY DIFFER. When a man writes everything must be in apple-pie order: pen, paper and ink must be just so, and a profound silence must reign while he accomplishes this important function. A woman gets any sheet of paper, tears it perhaps from a book or portfolio, sharpens a pencil with the scissors, puts the paper on an old atlas, crosses her feet, balances herself 0:1 her chair and confides her thoughts to paper, changing from pencil to pen and vice versa from time to time, nor does she care if the children romp or the cook comes to speak to her.

A man storms if the blotting paper is not conveniently near; a woman dries the ink by blowing on it, waving the paper in the air or holding it near a lamp or a fire. A man drops a letter unhesitatingly In the box; a woman re-reads the address, assures herself that the envelope is sealed, the stamp secure, and then throws it violently into the box. 1 A man can cut a book only with a paper-cutter; a woman deftly inserts a hairpin and the book is cut For a man "good-by" signifies the end of a conversation and the moment pf his departure; for a woman it is just when they are taking leave of each other that women think of the most important topics of conversation. A woman ransacks her brain trying to mend a broken object; a man puts it aside and forgets that for which there is no remedy. A man does not attempt to drive a nail unless he has a hammer; a woman does not hesitate to utilize anything, from the heel of a boot to the back of a brush.

A man considers a corkscrew absolutely necessary to open a bottle; a woman attempts to extract the cork with the scissors; if she does not succeed readily she pushes the cork into the bottle, since the essential thing Is to get at the fluid.
