txxu bujpjpalU UUMMJiKClAL, WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 24, 1897. i SUPREME- COURT. Erie County CTt? may reach the proportions of the crowd which saw the Quaker defeat Harvard on Saturday. THE REALM OF SPORT stronger tests than the steel tubing. It is lighter by a pound and a half than steel, and it is said the cos is much less than the best quality of steel tubing.

It also imperviou i to water, and unaffected by heat or-cold. In fact, it has been tested and found practicable for wheel frames." For Good Health USE pElTEiniis As has been pointed out frequently, this I football season bas ended with- fcnemorab' out championship team, a result that will cause a gTeat deal of regret among all true loyers of the sport, says the New York Commercial Advertiser. As matters now Btaud, it is iinposwble for even the expert to determine wuicli is the stronger team, Pennsylvania or Yale. By her victory over Princeton on Saturday Yale has undoubtedly won a position that makes it difficult to estimate her real strength. That an eleven made up of freshmen principally, as Yale was, could go in atrf win such a decisive victory from tha Princeton veterans is little short of marvelous, and the Yale men came out of the game with no injuries to peak of, while Bomeof the.

Tigers were badly bruised. Mr. Butterworth'a policy of coaching also places the relative strength of the team as compared to Pennsylvania where it is next to impossible to rate it. During the early part at the season nearly everything: that came along scored on Yale. Teams that in foimer years would have been as chaff in a wind storm crossed her goal line.

Not until the Harvard-Yale game did Mr. Butter-worth begin to show what his men were really capable of. Yale played a draw with Harvard, "and a week later administered a defeat to the Tigers that will never be forgotten by the present gpneratioil of Prince-tonians. Mr. Butterworth now gives it out that he made no effort to win the minor games.

His thoughts and ideas and the" entire work of the army of coaches at New Haven were to prepare the team for- the games with Harvard and Princeton. That those efforts were successful cannot be gainsaid, and the question ariees: If Yale should meet Pennsylvania, what would be the result? Should Mr. Butterworth be enabled to continue the improvement of the eleven at the rate of the past two or three weeks the Quakers would have to meet a team that would give them the fight of. their Hves. Harvard's tie game with Yale and Pennsylvania's easy victory over the Crimson gives the Quakers the to lay claim to the premier honors of the.

That thess claims will be disputed on all sides goes without raying. Yale adherent say among other things "that the Blue scored a victory over the greatest eleven of football Tw, 1 ,1 '1-1. voeates of Pennsylvania may follow along with the statement that the Red and Blue i has triumphed over the Crimson, and as the latter was equally as strong as Yale, there can be no query as to her supremacy. And so on to the end of the chapter. About -L I 1 1 me uuiy perwons wno are not interested in in tne controversy are a lew.

MOUNTAIN DIALECT. Forms of Speech in Use in the Log Cab- ins in the Mountains of Tennessee -Apt and Ready Phrases. A visit of a week to the Tennessee Mountains affords hardly sufficient basis to justify Dr.

W. C. Gray, editor the Interior, in denying that there is any mountain dialect, and declaring, on the oral authority of "Dr." Myers that this dialect, as reported in their stories by Charles Egbert Craddock and William E. Barton, are "the invention of two or three mercenary writers" who "have made their fortune out of It." There may be minor errors, as in "you-una," which is cracker, not mountain; but these writers, certainly Dr Barton, have very carefully studied the dialect, and know more of it than any brief visitor. Such forms of speech as the following may be heard about the log eabins in the mountains where the looms are still making "plain clo' or weaving more complicated patterns of "young man's fancy" or "rattlesnake travel." We may mention for intend; lay out, for purpose, as "I lay "out to go to.

pack, and, less frequently, the cracker tote, for carry; carry, to convey or escort, as "Bill kerried Sail to meetln'," or "I'll carry that lioss, or that wheelbarrow, tc the barn." Cal'late with accent on last syllable, is used for intend; afread, good old" English for afraid, and likewise anack for lunch, and coast for a wide area of country, but without reference to water front. IJover is used as a transitive verb; ehame-Xiced, of things as well as persons, as "That's a shame-faced nigh outer for approximately; hatter, gotter, gointer, sorter, and like ablnfviutions of a word ending in rt and pouie other finals followed by of or to; plumb, tu, indicate certainty; pineiy, perhaps an abbreviation of pointedly, used for em-phasiti. as "lie' jes' piuely had ter git up an" plunder for buosehold goods; main as an adjecth without reference to a minor part, ns "Hea a main big powerful without dyuumic reference, as "I feel powerful weak triflin' used, of one's state of health or of hia shiftlessness, as, "That's a mighty lazy "I've ben mighty triflir' sence I got throwed off a mule live year ago." Shiftless, that good rsew England word, la rarely if ever heard, but ehif ty is frequent; branch, a little stream, without reference to its being a tributary; feist, a little dog. Edward Efc'gles. ton "spells it fice in Southern Indiana.

It should be the same in the mountains, but hi not heard without the Seal t. From feist, cornea a most con venien adjective, feusty, appi.cnble to a meddlesome, unstable person; it has no synonym "in modern English, and W2 are the poorer, the one word that expresses the smne idea being the mountain brickety. It would not be difficult to enlarge thi3 list. We may mention some quaint old plurals and inflections, as the plural is for all words ending in st: post, postis; beast, beastis; feist, feistis, and such preterite as help, holpcd, holpen. These are mostly survivals, but as-oibsolete forms they are certainly dialect now.

Then there is hit for it, wherever there is emphasis' or contrast; atter for after, they air for there is, etc. Also the constant use of the adverb done to strengthen the Dast kteuee, as "He has done gone," or even "He has done the constant use of the past parucipie iur me past tense, as illy Corse thrown me," "I fallen in the river." We may mention thajengthening of short to long a in all words-ending in -ent, with the shifting of the accent and frequent elision of a middle syllable, as pres-daint for president; or the dividing the accent on such words as pulpit, which becomes pullpitt We might mention phrases which are usually apt and ready, such as "raise dirt" for anything that makes unpleasantness in- a community; "ground-hog case," for a case of necessity, i pronounced need-cessity. And by the way, this expression, "ground-hog case," orlginat i ing in the story of a mountain boy who told the strange minister that he was obliged to continue digging out the ground-hog even if it was Sunday, for "the preacher's a-comin' and we hain't got no meat," must have given Mies Murfree the name of her old distiller in "The Prophet of the Great Smoky Mountains," "Old Ground-Hog Cayce." Independent. 1 STREET CAIXED "BY AXD BT. Tne street called By and By is smooth.

The "Varsity Boys Thrashed the All-Buf-falos Yesterday They Played with Old-Time Vigor. The University of Buffalo has the champion football eleven of Buffalo. This was decided by their defeating the A1I-Buffaloe at the Athletic Field yesterday afternoon. Ever since the last game, which was won by the All-Buffalos. there has always been a dispute as to who was the champion.

Dr. Meyers of the U. of B. Intimated that the All-Buffalos were afraid to meet the V. of B.

Manager Clogston of the All-Buffaloa gaid that It was Just the other way. Then both managers charged professionalism against the other's team. After many disputes the deciding game was set for yesterday. When the time came for-the game to be called there were no officials. There were plenty willing to take the positions bnt If the 'Varsity eleven suggested a man the All-Buffalos would object to him and vice vensa.

The U. of B. thought that Sweetland would be a good man to referee. Sanford made strenuous objects. He said that while he was satisfied that Sweetland would do everything In his power to act impartially but he argued that he had personal reasons for objecting.

The U. of B. players did not like this because they had paid Sweetland's fare (o Buffalo and did not think that Mr. Sanford should let personal grievances have anything to do with the selection of the umpire. It was now 3.30.

The V. of B. men were getting angry. One of theni said that If the All-Buffalos did not want to decide on the officials that they named why there would be no game and that the large audience outside would be given rain checks for the game with Hobart. This aroused Sanford's anger.

"All right," said the Yale coach, "If that Is the way you feel about it we won't play." He started to walk away. Manager Clogston intercepted him and after talking together for a short time both went to Billy Bott and Dr. Meyers. said; "We will agree to Thew Wright as referee for one half." Mr. Wright Interrupted.

"I will not umpire one half." said he. "If I umpire at all I will umpire tha whole game and that Is all there is to it." In the meantime the crowd, which completely-filled the grandstand, was becoming Impatient and the air was filled with cat calls and college yells. Dr. Meyers began to think darkness iwonld settle the'dlspute. The doctor shovbd his hands 11 his pockets, threw his shoulders back, and walking up to Sanford and Clogston he said: "Now, this Is going to end It.

I will agree to Thew Wright of Buffalo for referee and Mr. Balrd for umpire for the entire game. This Is as fair an offer as we can muke." At first Clogston objected. Sanford had a conference. Then Sanford said: "Billy," addressing Bott, "get your men out on the fltld and I will be out after you.

Bott did as When the V. of B. bovs rushed out on the-field they were greeted with great dicers from the half frozen spectators. A second afterward and the All-Buffalos inie out. "Gee," said one V.

of B. man. "I bet on the V. of B. and gave odds at that, but I am not so sure that they are going to have an easy time with those husky fellows." It did not take long for the two teams to line up.

And thev soon made the blood boll in the veins of the ardent admirers of the two teams on both sides of the line. Gordon kicked off. It was soon seen that tha V. of B. eleven had the advantage en weight and they made big gains one after another.

Once Gordon tried to kick a goal from the -field but it missed! the goal by sevral feet. -The plays during the first ini wpro pxcltlne and brilliant. The score at its conclusion was XT B. 10: A'J-Buffalo O. When Coach Sanford got his men 1 in the training quartejs he impresst-d uoon their minds the necessity of scoring.

Coach Sanford thought that it was very fuimy it he om'd help Yale to dffeat Princeton -aud could not get the All-Buffalos in trim to defeat the Varsity. The second half had not been going long when Sanf.rd said. "It can't be helped. It's lu the air." And Sanford was right, for when darkness crept down upon the buttling btroc and the game came to a close the score was 26' to 0 In favor of the 'Varsity and the V. of triunmhed over the All-Buffalo.

They were the champions of Buffalo and the followers of the V. of B. were not slow In realizing the fact. Thev cheered lustily for their grid-Iron heroes. The line-no was as follows: University of Buffalo.

Nov. 24. Cornell's team was excused with- very light and informal practice yesterday afternoon so that the final arrangements could be made for today's departure for Philadelphia, where the Quakers and IthaCans will straggly for supremacy on Franklin Field. Although there were enough men present to form three elevens there were no line-ups. This evening at training quarters De Forest Van-leet a Cornell alumnus and trustee, addressed the team, encouraging the players to make every effort to win.

"To her spirit and he said, "is attributed much of Yale's succeas in athletics. I venture to predict that if Cornell combines with her strength, quiet determination and science which characterized her crews last summer she will be able to give the Quakers a surprise Thursday." QUAKERS ON DECK, The Pennsylvanians are Rounding into Shape for Tomorrow's Battle. The Pennsylvania football players were out In force yesterday to take their last practice before the game with Cornell on Franklin Field. Thanksgiving Day.

Match N. Yfc Npv. 24. News that in the near future Yale would probably issue a challenge to the Cornell crew for a match regatta next June was college talk yesterday. It is reported here that Yale has announced her willingness to row either Cor- nell and Harvard representatives jointly, or separate crews of either college, lhe course will probably be a four mile etraight-wav.

It is said that Yale is likely to im- pose the condition that the race be held anywhere but in Saratoga Lake. Cornell is peculiarly situated, for tnougn sue may agree with Harvard Yale for a race, she will be glad to row Columbia and Pennsylvania as in past years. Prof. Benj. Wheeler, faculty member of Cornell's athletic council, and on the navy committee, said yesterday, as to Yaie sending Cornell a challenge: "We have received no official communication from Kew Haven and it would take the athletic council as a body to act in order to determine Cornell's policy.

I can hardly believe such challenge is forthcoming, but I can see how such action might meet with favor among the Yale students. DOWNEY COMING SATURDAY.

ROYAL STANDARD. It is Denied that the Toronto Stallion wa a '-Ringer." Toronto, Nov. 24. George Pepper of Toronto, who had charge of the ring arrangementa of the Chicago- horse show, was Interviewed yesterday afternoon concerning the despatch from Chicago regarding the Ineligibility of Royal Standard. Asked if Royal Standard was a "ringer" as alleged, Mr.

Pepper gave an emphatic answer In the negative. The horse shown by Graham Bros, was the genuine Royal Standard. There was no ringing, nor was there any fraud, and as to collusion, there was no occasion for wrong doing of any description. Under the conditions governing the class of hackneys in which Royal Standard was exhibited, there was a clause requiring that all entries should be registered In the American Stud Book. Roya! Standard was not so registered, but was registered In the -English Stud Book.

When Graham Bros, forwarded their entry for Royal Standard to the secretary of the Chicago horse show they enclosed a copy of the certificate from the English stud book. Their, entry was accepted, to which no objection was raised. Mr. Pepper fancied that the show officials would, be Justified in declaring the horse Ineligible, but he thought the proper course to have to have rejected the entry. Respecting the statement that Royal Standard was a half-breed Mr.

Pepper said there had been some difficulty experienced In tracing the breeding of the great grand dam of the horse. PARTY POSTPONED.

A steeplechase with gentlemen riders in, over a three mile course, proved a sufficiently strong attraction to ln-dnce i large number of" people, fashionables and otherwise, go to' Plmllco yesterday, to witness the second day's Bport of the fall meeting. Two thousand was about the number- in attendance, and di-splte an extremely muddy, heavy track, good racing was again the rule. Another book was opened, making seventeen la all who are how doing business at the track, and all of them had their hands full, with the result that the talent fell pretty heavily In two races, and jessed the others handsomely. The most notable exception was the fifth event on the In which Alarum was an almost- prohibitive favorite, at even money, much to the" urprlse of many who did not think he ought to do the trick as he carried top weight, and track was sloppy and heavy. The finish proved that the doubters were right, as Wordsworth, a 6 to 1 shot, with but 97 pounds up, won It handily, With Knight of the Garter, the second choice, a good second, while Alarum took third place three or four lengths in the rear.

Hand-press was tipped as the good thing In the fourth race, selling at 11 to 20 in the betting, but Ba-bieea, at 4 to 1. got first money and Hand-press finished second. In the steeplechase, IJttle Giant, with Mr. Elder up, fell at the water jump but the rider was not hurt while Billy Be with Brady "on his back, refused to the same obstacle and was out In other respects it was one of the most Interesting events of the kind ever seen on the track, and the victory of Mrs. S.

S. Howland's Athlete, with Mr. S. Nicholas on his back, was an exceedingly popular one. The summaries: First, for maidens, 2-year-olds, 514 furlongs Reflde, 10O, Irving, 8 to 5, won; SUeen 100, Covlle, 8 to 6, Elterslle Belle, 100, Doggett, to 1.
