We must wait little to see how the young folks gel along together, nnd then" M. de (lace looked tit his son, whose eyes were whining brightly, and, without a single muscle of his face betraying lilin, he felt the ngony In his heart. "Thank you, sir," he said quietly, "for your kind words about Hubert. I hope you will allow him to come here often, for I think they will please each cither. Robert in a good fellow And he added simply, "And Miss Helen Is an adorable young lady," Washington Post.

MiMlUIL WK VU EGYPTIAN i CIGARLTTtS pfewt.lrB I Short Storu ol ttie Day. THE PROPOSAL Ths Hardin was wonderful In Its fresh spring hiauty. the delicately tinted II-lam, tlie fruit trees tlmt were one immense bank of bloom, nml the sunshine that jilnyeil upon It (ill, throwing Home of the colors Into high relief and shading others, glowing richly In the soft shadows, temler perfumes hovered In the warm air, while fragile, delightful rustlings and whisperltiKs re all that broke the silence. Jean de Once, ns he opened the gate, drew In a long breath of happiness. From where he stood he could see the green weep of the lawn, the graceful trees, snd "winding walks; his heart grew light, and, pmlllng, lie bowed deeply to this paradise.

A white skirt fluttered near the edge of the little wood, moving with a quick, rustling motion; he recognized the pur-nsol, the dainty rose-colored waist, and the white skirt, am! as the owner of the parasol turned the corner he caught a glimpse of a beautiful face. M. de Gace felt happier and younger than ever; Ills forty-live years slipped away from him us a dead leaf from Its branch; he did not know what it was to prow old. He had married very early In life, and his wife, whom he adored, had died soon after the birth of their son; ind since then, on account of the passionate eagerness with which he had thrown himself Into his work, he bad carcely perceived the passing of the time. There was no touch of white among his brown hairs nor In his short mustache, and his step was quick and alert.

Hut during the. last year, since the Malnfrovs had moved Into the country house that adjoined his own estate, he had grown younger thnn ever; he had scarcely noticed that his son Hubert hud left for Japan, art attache to the French embassy, nor that Maud, his flnn-it mare whom he had entered for tlie Onks race, had suddenly gone lame. He was Dbsorhed In one. dominating thought that lie Was In love with Helen Mulnfroy. nnd that, In all probability, should he ask her tiand, It would be given him.

Suddenly she- called to him. "I have just been down to see your Jlorses run; Norfolk Is simply superb." M. de (lace wan enchanted, not with the compliment bestowed upon his horse (hut with the bright Joy of Helen's smile. 11c looked longingly at her, delighting In each fresh aspect of her beauty and then, feeling that It was time for him to make come reply, he asked: 'is your father here?" "Yes." she answered, conscious of bis emotion, "he is settling his accntmtn In the summer house. 1 heard the little tinkle of the bell by the garden gale, and, thinking it was you, 1 came to meet you." "How good of you! Ouiss, you can.

Sabe the Coupons a score of 87 to 0. Next It will be Minnesota, and only the fates of foot bull tan tell what that score will be, Tlie men murt bo bo pounded up and bruised by this time that they dread the dally training and the team will be a plucky one, indeed, if It goes through the entire season under such terrible defeats. Of course Minnesota will try to pile up a greater score than did Wls-cousin. Maybe It will try to make as many us Michigan and Wisconsin made together. When the fierce gopher play against Iowa Is remembered It may be that Minnesota can do even thin.

Anyway the wtatetnent made at the beginning of the season that the west will see some of the greatest football It ever sw this year still holds and with a llrtner grip than ever, New York, Oct. 19. Everything points to a grand series of battles among the big colleges for the footbull championship. The latest games played by the Important teums during the last few days show them to be of unusual strength this year. The little colleges could do practically nothing against them.

This fact has led some experts on gridiron matters to say that the new rules, contrary to expectations, favor the big elevens. Just why this Is so I hey have not been able to state clearly. As a rule the big teamsarealwaysable to develop great punter and a first-class quarterback. Without such a quarter and punter a team Is under a terrlllc. disadvantage between the twenty-five yard lines, where the new rules come into pluy.

This may explain the matter. There can be little doubt now that Yale has a team the equal of the superb one she put on the Held last fall, Milwaukee, Oct. 19. The pros-lcts for a good team at Wisconsin are brightening dally and the students who were so pessimistic about the season's work have commenced to change their attitude, und the genuine Wisconsin spirit, which has cheered so many teams to victory, is beginning to be apparent. The students and other enthusiasts who have been watching the work of the squad for the past tlx weeks and noting the improvements in the team day after day are beginning to believe that Wisconsin will make the big teams earn their laurels this season.

No one has been so rash as to predict anything like ampionship honors. It would be absurd to do so, for Wisconsin Is still green material only, half way through the process of development by which the coaches hone to build up a team that can cope successfully with Stagg's veterans on Oc-toher 31. Both Coach Curtis and Coach McCarthy say that the Chicago game will be tho crucial game of the season und they are putting forth every effort to get the team Into shape for the fight. The work Is growing harder every day, but there Is no plcn of quitting on the part of the men. The work for the past two weeks has consisted of two hours of hard work every afternoon at Camp Randall and an hour of signal practice every evening in the gymnasium.

The Wisconlsn team will be light this year, but the coaches are developing a dash nnd snap in the play which reminds one of the speedy little team of liiol. when Coach Curtis played at taikle. The men in the rush line are charging low and quic and the backs are getting away fast. The principal ts tlfltMam t4 tl t7 tl Chicago, Rnrlne, Kenosha, Mllwau. kee, Waukesha, and Fond du Lac.

19. Playing- fast, hard, aggressive football, Wisconsin rolled up a total of eighty-seven pointy agtilnK Beloit Saturday and at once sprang forward us one of the Plronjceftt contenders for the wtstern championship. The fierce rushes of the Badger hacks were far too much for the Beloit players and the- fifteen touchdowns fol lowed in puch quick succession tlmt the cri.wd lowl track of the score. No game in the past has encouraged Wisconsin looleivi as this one, Tlie wonderful Improvement of the entire team over Its showing against Lawrence a week ago came as a revelation, and the students are now eagerly looking forward to tlie Chicago game, October SI. Michigan's score against Beloit a week ago was 79 to 0.

Chicago, 111., Oct. 19. As a result of the sensational football game Saturday afternoon at Marshall Held between Chicago mid. Northwestern western gridiron calculations are in a fine mix-up. Chicago may win the remaining games on its schedule, but it cannot now have a clear claim to western honors even should this happen.

There Is a chance also that Northwestern may win every game that it plays, for the boont which the purple hast been given by holding' the maroons to an 0 to 0 score nnd outplaying them in reality is wonderful. The west, every bit of It, la willing to bow very low to Coach McCornaek now. Before the game Saturday the west said "What If McCornaek should win from Chicago or should keep the maroons from scoring?" And the answer was always: "He ill be the greatest coach this wide of the Alleghanies If he does but that is And so it looked Impossible. Hut he demonstrated that It was not. However, the west will know better how to take this young fellow from Dartmouth the next time.

It siays that it ought to have known from what he did in the east. It probably did know, but refused to believe that such miracles could be accomplished. PURPLE HAS GREAT TEAM. It is certain that Northwestern never hod a greater football eleven than that which so nearly won from Chicago Saturday. No, this Is not a broad statement.

There have been Northwestern teams which have been composed of men who were greater individual stars than the players who did so well at Marshall lield, but never an eleven which showed such consummate team work, such charging, such power to take advantage of opportunities and such bulldog grit. For Northwestern It Is Indeed unfortunate that it has not a larger team. If it had there might be a glimpse of the championship for the royal purple. As it fs Northwestern is likely to be well up in the race at the end of the season, although it has some exceedingly tough games ahead. The purple must play Wisconsin and Illinois, eith er one of which Is mote than likely to bring the Kvanfton schools colors down.

Chicago nasi still to meet Wisconsin, Illinois and West Point before' mixing it up with Michigan on Thanksgiving day, and these games, while they did not appear to be so formidable at the outset, promise to be most grueling matches. Anyway only three elevens are left which stand out in the limelight all alone now. These are Michigan, Min nesota and Wisconsin. Through force of circumstances and preceding events the choice naturally falls upon Michigan, although Minnesota has probably the greatest eleven in its history this fall. Wisconsin will be kept in the same clam with Michigan and the gophers until it has its first big game.

Then it will be left to itself to prove whether or not it belongs there. BADGERS STRONG ELEVEN. There is a feeling gaining ground that the Badgers are exceedingly strong this year. Aside from the local contest the game between Wisconsin and Beloit furnished the greatest surpuise Saturday. It was not thought that the Badgers would run up a score greater than that which Michigan made the week before, but Coach Curtis' players proved that they could go the distance and that they could remain strong un til the end, even if kept on the move every minute, as they must have been to pile up eighty-seven points.

Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan are Ptill holding None of these schools has a hard game scheduled. Wisconsin will play little Knox, an easy conKt-t for the cardinal Indeed. Michi gan will meet Drake, while Minnesota will go up against Beloit. That poor little Badger college is surely having a hard row of stumps to hoe. First it wag Michigan 'with a 79 to 0 score.

"I shall lie very glad to meet him," enld Helen, lowering her parasol. "One reason of my coming here now iwas to ask your permission to bring him to call tomorrow." said M. de Gace slowly.

He was silent for a moment, ns if to fiive more emphasU to his words, and then he went on, bis words coining ly and his eyes tlxed upon the, ground. "Robert its now definitely settled, his scarcer is established, and he has nothing io do but 4o go ahead; he was still a deal of a boy when he left fur Japan, but he has come home a man; I do not need to worry any longer about him. And It is this fact that lias de-fclded me to take, with your father's per-jnissison, a step with whose nature I ihaye already acquainted him." In spito of himself, the man looked up watch the effect of his words; Helen (was standing motionless, while the quick color played in her checks. Her little Jiand trembled upon the handle of her jiarasol as she traced vague patterns in ttlie garden walk. M.

de Gace longed to take possession if this little band, to tell her how much "he loved her and ask her if she would Ibe hie wife. He felt instinctively that tlie moment was divine. Had he been young he would have done it. without pans dug for an instant, hut certain ages have their certain bas'if illness. He was silent.

timid, and trembling, as If he had been flnly twenty. "You know we are always glad to pec you," said Helen simply, breaking the Jong silence. "Verv well, then, I will come, tomor row. I will not disturb your father "Why, are you going already? We fiave scarcely seen anything of you late "You are good to say so!" Yes. Helen was good, she was henull ful.

and she was charming. M. de 5acp kept repeating the words to himself as lie walked beneath the tall, spreading elms, where, at the end of the driveway, a groom stood waiting, holding Ills horse. With naive care he constantly assured himself of her love, remembering how lie always came to greet him, nnd her smites and soft handshakes, Was it, after all. only sympathy that she felt for Jier lonely, agreeable neighbor? Hut no, she had blushed just now, she understood the bidden meaning of Jils words, and she had said "Tomorrow." Besides.

i he had already spoken to Mr. Mainfroy; 1 Tertians Helen's father had told her. He stopped short, reining In his horse euddenly. "What if ehe only wants to marry me because I am rich and the Huron Ue Gace!" Ho drove the thought away with a quick exclamation of anger, knowing It un- of the girl he loved, and. touching his horse with the spurs, he galloped Jhome.

As he turned the corner he saw Jils son Robert, flashing down the road In front of him, on his bicycle, and from Jiis seat upon his splendid animal M. de Gace compared himself with his son. thinking rapidly: "On the whole, I am better than he." The next day, as the father and son entered the Mainfroys' parlor, they surprised Helen arranging her flowers. She ad not looked for them so soon, and had not heard the carriage, and supposing herself alone for some time yet. she was still dressed in her loose, morning dress, her arms bare and her hair simply tied wit): a ribbon.

M. de Gace uttered a smothered exclamation at the lovely plc- ture she made among her flowers. "Mercy me, let ma run away!" she. cried, seeing them stand suddenly before her. "Before you go.

please let me Introduce my son," said the. baron, smiling, "and please forgive us for coming so soon. really couldn't wait." Blushing rosy-red, Helen lifted her to those of the young man, standing so ital! and etralght beside his father. Their looks met and lingered. A moment later ehe had disappeared, closing the door behind her.

''Great heavens!" cried Robert, "how charming she is. and how pretty!" "Tou think so?" queried his father. "Yea. indeed, and I understand better Bow what you seemed to be hinting at yesterday, dad: I assure you that if this if! the voung lady of your choice.

Philadelphia, Oct. IS. Terry Mc-Govern, the one-time world wonder, has gone the way of all fighters. Thono who witnessed Terry's battle with Billy Willis last week today admit that the present McGovern Is no more like the former Terrible Terry than the moonlight Is like daylight. While Terry is still a sturdy mixer and a hard lighter, he is not the ring marvel that he was before he met defeat at the hands of Young Corbett.

Terry now lights He waits time and time again for his opponent to lead and even in returning a blow lie guards himself with a care that was utterly unknown to hira when a champion. But the strangest thing about the present-day McGovern is that he seems to lack a knockout punch. In his last two fights the first since his recent Illness ho lias been unable to stop hia opponents and the bouts have gone the limit. This result could hardly have been brought about entirely through cleverness on the part of the men opposed to him. as both of them Ryley and Willis, have been very little alxve the preliminary class.

PEGGY STEWART DAY. Patriotic Anniversary I Olmettril at Iloltlinore. (Bulletin Press Association.) Baltimore, Oct. 19. Peggy Stewart l)ay was observed today by the Daughters of the American Revolution and other patriotic, societies of Maryland.

The Feitgy Stewart was owned by Alexander Stewart. She arrived in Annapolis harbor October 15, 1T74, and contained, besides othermer-clntndipe, seventeen chests of tea.
