16. Tale defeated Princeton in the annual football contest at Yale Field this afternoon by the score of 12 to 0. The score, according to the experts who witnessed the game, represents accurately the superiority of tho Sons of Eli over the Tigers of old Nassau. Aside from the general excellence of the Yale team, the feature of the play was to be found in the entire absence of unfair tactics. Trobably no game ever has been rlayed on the Yale Field where there was less roughing, slugging and offside play.

During the game, lasting nearly two hours. Including the Intermission and the time taken out by delays resulting from Injuries, but two penalties were imposed, the rival teams being equally guilty. In tha first half Frinceton was the offender and Yale was awarded ten yards distance. In the second half Yale's anxiety cost her the Fame distance and honors were even. On two occasions players were warned by the umpire for tactics unnecessarily rough, but on these occasions, as In the instances of cside play, Princeton and Yale were alike guilty once each.

There was nothing of the spectacular In the contest. The game was won by Yale as a result of the simplest kind of old-fashioned play, and a physical condition which enabled the Sons of Eli to "last" through a gruelling contest. Princeton, on the other hand, displayed a tendency to go to pieces, and throughout the seventy minutes of actual time with a single change, when Captain Kunzlg, of the 'varsity boat crew, took the place of Goss at left tackle. Princeton found it necessary to call upon teven substitutes and the Introduction of this half dozen of fresh men enabled her to make a superb finish of a contest which had been altogether uphill. Yale's goal lines were never endangered.

Indeed the Princeton players never reached a point nearer Yale's goal than the thirty-yard line. Yale scored one touchdown in ach half and each of these were converted cleverly into a goal by Olcott. Yale's touchdowns came as a result of a superbly developed system of line plunging in which the famous tackles back formations, in all their varieties, netted the greatest gains. Yale's backs, assisted by as sprightly a set of forwards as could be asked, found holes in the Princeton line which enabled them to make consistent gains when once they found their pace, and the touchdowns were inevitable with the magnificent team-work displayed by Yale when the occasion demanded it. The first touchdown was made after about fifteen minutes of play.

A fumble by Princeton at the center of the field gave Yale her chance and Feizing the ball on Princeton's twenty-yard line the Yale men in ten plays forced the ball over for the first score. The rest cf the first half witnessed many exchanges of kicks and. in this department of the game little Desaulles, the Yale quarter back, surprised his admirers by holding L'3 own fairly well with Dewitt. Yale required about twenty minutes of play in tho second half to score the second and last touchdown of the game. This score, like its predecessor, came as the result of straight football, made possible by great strength and superior team play.

Honors were evenly divided as to kicks, Desaulles holding his own amazingly well with Dewitt. In the handling of kicks, Princeton exceiltd, perhaps a trifle. In the matter of scrimmages, however, Yale play was impressively cleaner, Princeton time and again losing the ball on deplorable fumbles. Throughout the game the play was largely in Princeton's territory. From the kick-off at the start Yale did r.ot Jet up until the first touchdown had l-en made.

Then she resorted to the kicking game and the scrimmages were confined to the mi. Idle of the field. So, too. In the second half, the New Haven boys clur.g to the ball amazingly and confined tho piav to the Tigers territory until six points had been added to the Y'ale score. TVhen the score was 12 to 0 against them, thf Princetonlans disclosed that "never-s ty-die" spirit by which she often has great victories in the rast, and gave a superb exhibition of last-ditch fighting.

Vm iHstinnably beaten, and with seven of thp tfani substitutes, the heroes of Old Naaii went at It and fairly lifted the men from their feet. Then it was. the first time in the second half, tho Princeton men forced the play into Yal. territory, and for the last fifteen rr.ir-.tt-s of the game Y'ale was decidedly on th- defensive. Barndoor holes were fen ia th hitherto invincible Y'ale line amazing distances were gained by the Nw men.

CAMBRIDGE, Nov. 16. Harvard defeated Dartmouth 27 to 12, this afternoon with a team half composed of substitutes and without Capt. Bambell. Dartmouth scored a touchdown in each half, after blocking punts by Harvard.

Putnam was very slow in getting his kicks off and the substitute linemen allowed Dartmouth to break through and block. Daly, Harvard's substitute quarter back, kicked a goal from the field, on the twenty-five yard line. Griffin of Dartmouth received two place kicks after free catches in midfield, but in each case the ball fell short. Harvard's play was very ragged, especially in the line. Harvard also suffered five penalties for interference and offside, and Dartmouth three.

"I think It would be a good idea for the people to elect two Presidents, one to shake hands and the other to transact the business of the government," said Joseph Jefferson, the actor, to President Roosevelt to-day when he called at the White House. The two had a very pleasant chat, Jefferson telling Mr. Roosevelt that it was an odd incident that his grandfather had called at the White House to see President Jefferson. The aged actor found it quite difficult to climb the stairs to the President's office.

XXX Many friends of N. L. Chew, of Nobles-ville, one of the deputy auditors for the Postoffice Department, are urging his appointment as auditor In case of the retirement of Henry T. Castle, of St Paul. It has been rumored for several days in Washington that on account of friction in the department Mr.

L. Laws, of Wabash, resigned to go to Cuba, XXX Representative Landis telegraphed to Washington to-day urging the President to sign the commission of William Nye, selected as postmaster for Crawf ordsville, as John R.

XXX The negotiations between the governments of the United States and Denmark relative to the cession to the United States of the Danish West Indies have been transferred to Washington.

The negotiations were initiated by Mr. Swenson, United States minister to Copenhagen, about three years ago, and later on Mr. White, secretary of the embassy at London, took up the work in behalf of the United States.

Srelal to the Indianarolls Journal. SOUTH BEND, Nov. 15. Notrt Dame to-day won the football chanmplon-shlp of Indiana, defeating Indiana University by the score of IS to 5. It was sweet revenge for the South Bend collegians to defeat Indiana in such a decisive manner, for Notre Dame has not been treated well at Bloomington.

To-day Indiana was honored by South Bend and Notre Dame as only true sportsmen can honor others, and the fact that Indiana lost ls due only to one fact, Notre Dame's strong team. In the history of Indiana gridirons there Is no record of a team equal to the eleven which represented Notre Dame to-day, and Coaches Balllet, of P. rdue, and Home, of Indiana, do not hesitate to make euch a statement. To-day's contest was full of sensations. The plunges of Full Back Salmon through the line, his magnificent run of fifty yards through a broken field, and his remarkable defensive play were the main features.

Foster scored Indiana's only touchdown from Notre Dame's thirty-yard line, after Kirby had fumbled. Other heroes of the game were Clevenger and Elfers, of Indiana; LIns, Neyre, Fortin and Farragher, of Notre Dame. The contest opened strong and ended with the players of both teams still full of vim and vigor, Notre Dame anxious to make another touchdown and Indiana, trying to even the score Notre Dame made tSV firf touchdown" after nine minutes of play, the line bucking of Fortin, Salmon and Farragher, and end runf by Kirby and Doran advancing the ball to Indiana's six-yard line.
