If the day had been made to yesterday could not have been a pret- tier one for the long talked of foot- ball game between Sewanee burn. Both, teams had put up at the Exchange and that hotel was the center of attraction all the mornlnc for fiiends of both teams who went there Kossjp. size up thf team, and hands with old friends and College mates.

The game was announced to trbi at 3 o'clock, and long Before h. ,7. ot carriages. buggies and stylish drags, trap, tilled with pretty girls and their escorts on their way to the park, while street car after street car laden to the guards sped with their crowds. When the game waa called tha old park presented an animated scene the grand stand was crowded, while the bleachers were comfortably filled, and across the field where the ropes were an eager, good natured throng-probably twice as many as were in the stands Jostled and' pushed each other, and behind them were the vehicles, every one of them crowded.

It was evident from the start that Auburn had all the best of it their iam wiaa heavier, and their team -better and quicker. It looked ti be the easiest thing in the world Bor Auburn, to make gains either by 'going around the ends or by forcing very center of the Tennessee boys' while on the other hand their Jje was like a stone wall and almost invincible. Sewanee made an extremely narrow escape from not scoring, -and their only touchdown which was. made in the first half was made on fluke, TIchenor fumbling the ball, 't was a good, clean game though, on Its merits, and last night 1 the, captains of both teams expressed ''themselves in that wav. That the score was like it wa 36 to 6 was Caused by Auburns" Just playing the best football, in fact, having the best team, and there Is no kick coming "after, the ball." This puts the two 1 teams even now.

Then back and forth the opposing lines swayed for four minutes, when Stokes carried the ball over line for a touch-down and Tlchlnor kicked goallScore: Sewanee, Auburn, 6. On the up Laird ror sewanee kickbu ioriy-nv yards and the ball was brought back fifteen yards by TIchenor. When the plucky little Auburn quarter-back was dbwped he was quite severely hurt, Cul in a few seconds his "all right boys" made glad the hearts of the Au-hurn rooters and the game went on. Then Williams planned Sewanee'.

line for 'twenty-one yards but lost the ball. Seibles for Sewanee made five, yards .1 th. An nnp Vftrd. was not snapped until a Sewanee man got off side and again they were given ten' yards. Then tbey punched the line untu 8tokes carried the ball over and TIchenor kicked goat Laird then kicked off again for forty-five yards and Williams returned the ball twen-.

ty-five yards. Here Laird was hurt, but Alabama grit prevailed and he stayed in the game, making a sensational tackle of Williams's punch punch went Auburn into Sevanee line and at last Williams carried the bail over and TIchenor kicked goal. Boon after the game ended with the ball Jn Auburn's hands on gewanee's thirty-five yard Hut. For Auburn Stokes, Purifoy, Williams and Tich-enor were the stars, while WiTier, Laird, Colmore and Seibles did most of the work for Sewanee. ELEGANT BAXUIET.

Given the Sewanee Bora fay the Alumni at FlenUng-'a Last Wight. It has been a long time since as happy an event has taken place in Montgomery as last evening's banquet to the vlsiitiig Sewanee men by the local alumni of the old University. In the banquet hall the Rev. Dr. Powers ot St.

John's Episcopal Church and one of the trustees presided, while around the board were gathered besides the Sewanee team Messrs. John L. Cobb another of the trustees, W. D. Westcott, Lanier, Noble, L.

B. Farley. Marks, Walker, Ruth, Hoxie Farley. C. Py Jones, W.

H. Micou, Lieutenant S. G. Jones and W. W.

Screws. Jr. After a discussion of the delightful menu and by the way it was a most excellent onej Dr. Powers responded to the toast "Sewanee." Mr. McKellar.

an old Sewanee boy, responded to the toast "The Sewanea Spirit," saying among otheruhins that the characteristics of Sewanee the very atmosphere of the old pace are first of all, devotion to mother church, then devotion to the Union and the principles that make good, true, useful, American men. Mr. Tucker responded to "The Football Team of '96," showing that out of five games played this year this is only the second lost one. Then came the speech of the evening When Mi. Hard- wick Ruth responded to the toast "The Alumni," with an eloquent taik; every word coming from (jls, heart.

There was not a Sewanee man in the room whose heart did not beat quicker as the beautiful tribtrte to their old Alma Mater was paid and the love that Is felt for that Alma Mater by her boys was shown ly the hearty applause that greetesj Mr. Ruth as he closed. Everybody arose tlarn and Joined In singing "Auld Lang Syne," and after the rousing 'Varsity yell by the football team good-byes were regretfully said and with an earnest God bless you the old boys saw the boys of '96 leave for the depot. It was an evening of such delight and good fellowship as very seldom comes to men, and everybody felt better and more fitted for the struggles of life after It. OYERCOAlS RELINED F.

A Flae'ttnalcal Recital. The first of a 'series of piano In connection with the Krause Studio of Mosic, was given at. the home of Mr. and Ellen bersr on Saturday evening; those of the music-lovers of Montgomery, who were not present missed a rare treat. Devoted to their art (and music is an art and not a mere amusement, as many, people regard It).

Mr. and Mrs Eilenberg intend to give during the coming Reason, a number of recitals where, only music of a high order will ne neara. it was the first of these which gave so much pleasure to the hundre and more people who were (j.iir!w;iiu The house, which is well, arranged for shearing music, was beautifully decorated with flowers. The pianos, a baby grand and an upright, were piacea tne-rront room. The audi ence.

filled the dining room, the hall, Including the stairs and the landing, And all the space in the front room not taken up by -the instruments. The music began at half past 8 and ia.stea untu a little past ip. The program was as follows: Beethoven Sonata op. 53 first move-; ment. Mr.

Ellenbere. l-'The most important number was th Grelg concert which was played mosit admirably by Mrs. Eilenberg. This composition is one of the. greatest of tne piano it is also one of tha.

greatest of the many great work wnicn lireig nas given to tne worlct It characteristic of Its com poser, and no one at all familiar with-his music could fall to recognize ihi brain gave it birth. It Is nut intended to make any analysis of the many beauties of this concerto, which impress themselves on the mind more and more with each hearing of this masterpiece of musical art. Mrs. Kij lenberg performance marked by a clear understanding of the com position, by 'a faultless technique- and bv a thorough appreciation Of Its many beauties which she expressed with great warmth and feeling. It waft un fortunate that her task should have beea made so difficult by the ungrateful Instrument which she had to tif4.

a piano- wholly destitute of tone arid of sympathy of action. Mucri of the beauty of the composition was tost through, the fault of the piano, and the loss was greatest -at those points where the instrument should have sung the melodies Intrusted to it. But the piano could not The defects of the instrument were less apparent in tne more rapid and louder passages; but the best that-can be said for It ivas that it was unworthy of the player and her work. Mrs. Eilenberg Reserves the, greatest credit for what-she did accomplish and only an artist cf unusual ability could have scored success urider such conditions, ilr.

Ellenberg's accompaniment on the'ee-ohd piano not only well played.but it showed' the thorough sympathy he had Mrs. Ellenberg's work. after a. piano, even at the best, is but a poor substitute for an orchestra, and one could not help feeling a desire hear Mrs. Eilenberg play this, eon-certa again, with a good piano and the accompaniment of it fine orchestra.

--The next most Interesting feature fjf the program was the various; 'com-positions of Mr. Eilenberg, all of Which are of -a high order and show Him to be a composer, of marked from 'whom many more good things may be 'The Beethoven movement Is from a sonata loved by all piano playerst Mr. reading of it waa admirable rajid ranked him as a performer of high' standing in tne classical Ecnpoi oi FUUSic. 1riThe Kullak octave study was superb ly given. As music it does not occupyi a high level.

As an example, or virtuosity the performance was most interesting: and instructive Ellenberg's minuet, which he played most beautifully, deserves to toe well known. It is a composition of higher order than the one by Pader- which every one attempts to piny. '7 The concert ended with one of Mosa-jcoW8krs brightest and most picturesque thoughts. The piece Is on the of "saltarello," one of the national dances of Italy. It was a fitting end to an enjoyable evening, which, everyone' felt, had come too soon to a close.

Mr. and Mrs. Eilenberg received much applause and many congratulations on the success of- their first recital, and those who were present will be sure to come again to what promises to be a new feature-in Montgom-ry's-life. So tar as we. know, no one 'has ever attempted anything of this Mr.

and Mrs. Eilenberg are charming hosts who impress everyone most favorably -with their cordial their stay In Montgomery be productive of good to the'efty and of prosperity to -themselves.
