This was the nearest that Princeton came to scoring In the entire game, and as a matter of fact the batt'e was waged almost wholly in Princeton's territory.

Harvard and Dartmouth played as clean and interesting a Bame foot Dal1 yesterday afternoon as has bcen seen on Soldiers" field this year, an1 although the boys from Hanover found the crimson team one too many for them, and were beaten by the score of to 12, they played fast, spunky foot tall from Rtart to finish.

Twice in the first half and three times In the second half the Dartmouth team Kained their distance tnroujfrt tne i-lar- vard line, and at one time in the seoond half it looked as though Dartmouth would plough its way down to the Harvard goal fc'oat line. Putnam had one kick blocked on his 20- yard line by Pratt, and Morse fell on the ball behind tho crimson line.

Late In the serond half when Dalv went back to mint on hla 10-vard line Hrown broke throueh and after blocking the hick picked up the ball and made another score for Dart- mourn. The prettiest play of the day was Daly's i goal from the field. Harvard had rushed the ball down to Dartmouth's 15-yard lino. Daly went back to the 25-yard line and dropped a pretty goal which, with the direction and dlstanco It had, would have been good if sent from tho 35-yard line. The game was interesting from start to finish and contained many pluys not seen every contest.

One man dead and two seriously burned is the resuit ot Cannot Reduce Clerical Force Before End of the Tear. Washington, Nov. 17. The annual report of Hon. W.

R. Men-lam, director of the census, was made public to-day by the secretary of the interior to whom it is addressed. Speaking of the prospect of meeting the legal requirement for the completion of the four principal reports by July 1, Mr. Merriam says: "The work of tabulating the returns ar.d results of the Held work of the enumerators and special agents of the twelfth census has progressed with reasonable celerity. The law provides that the four principal reports shall be placed in the hands of the public by the first of July, 19C2, and this requirement has rendered it absolutely necessary to maintain a clerical force adequate to complete the work within the prescribed period.

It was hoped by the first of November a large number of employes would be dispensed with; but inasmuch as the work haa been retarded, owing to the difficulty of maintaining the clerical force at Its maximum, it is not likely that there will be any material reduction until after the first of the year. l.ii V. thai. allotted task will be completed in ample time."

Micdlebury, Nov. 17.

The University of Vermont defeated Middlehury college here yeaterday by a score of 20 to 0 in two halves. The snow which had fallen during the week rendered the field very muddy.

In the first half Middlebury made a bad fumble Just ifter the kick-ofT, and Ver- mont fall on it.

Then by a series of line plavs Vermont soon placed the ball over the seal line. During the rest of the half the ball exchanged hands three times with no touchdown.
