The visitors outweighed the local team, but appeared to be over-confident and except for one short five minutes In the first half, were never dangerously near the Trinity goal line.

J. Tranter, secretary of the Faslg-Tlpton Company, said the other day. in speaking of the situation: "There Is unquestionably a greater scarcity of light harness horses for sale in this country than at any other time within my knowledge. Heretofore, we have been compelled to turn away entries with a ten days sale, but this year I have had to get out and hustle for enough good horses to make asix days' sale." Shelby T.

The winner will take away the purse of $2,000, and he will be the undisputed champion of America and rightful disputant for the title of champion of the world. One of the contestants will be Charles Francis Barker of Boston, present holder of the title, veteran of 1,000 battles and author of numerous checker publications. The other will be Joseph A. Droulllard, of Kansas City, until recently unheard of in the checker world. Age and experience will be pitted against youth and determination.

The fray will be witnessed by checker experts of two continents. Pique, ambition; a rainy Sunday and the gibes of a farmer boy directly led to singular match. Some yearB ago Droulllard, then-16 years old, was a country echool teacher, living at Independence, Kan. One Sunday he was marooned by rain in a farmhouse near his school. A farmer boy suggested a game of draughts, and the schoolmaster accepted although unfamiliar with the game.

The country boy won easily. Then he called In a younger brother who likewise, was easily victorious. "Humph!" the older boy ejaculated. "It Is funny a man can teach school who hasn't enough brains to play checkers!" The gibe rankled. Droulllard than and there determined upon revenge.

At the Independence courthouse there was a checker board that was an institution. It was called "the county board." Democrats and republicans. Grand Army men and "Johnnies" from across the line, greenbackers and prohibitionists forgot their political grievances over Its tesselated surface. Young Droulllard edged In at the sessions as opportunity offered. In a few weeks he was the superior of all the checker devotees.

One day he drove to the home of the farmer boy who had railed at him. He was not long in Inducing his host to Manager Harry Starkie, the great mediator, brought the jarring Hanna and Jean factions together, figuratively, yesterday, and when he returned from New Britain last night he said that everything was settled and paper would be signed today that would make Down on the nrst lineup, by a long forward pass.

We had horsemen present from twenty states of the Union, and there were two buyers for every horse. We sold a weanling filly by Moko for $850; a weanling colt by Peter the Great for 1625; two yearlings by the Director General for $500 and $550; twenty-year-old brood mares for $275 and everything for all It was worth." It takes five or six veam to nrodncA a In the second half the local team showed the benefits of strict training and came back nt Holy Cross strong (Special to The Courant.) New Haven. Nov. 1. While Hobbs, Andrus and Goebel look to be of good size on the gridiron and the earth seems to rumble when they cross the field to devour their victims, their Immense proportions stand out more prominently when they are wrestling or boxing.

Professor Mosey King, who Is the Instructor in the give and take game at the Yale gymnasium, said today that while lie had Been about all of the famous athletes of recent years In this country, boxers, grapplers and football players, he did not know any man who shaped up better than Dutch Goebel. According to Professor King, Goebel has an original method of training for a wrestling contest. As is generally known, about all that a wrestler does to prepare himself for a match la to wrestle and to keep at It, Hacken-schmldt talked about skipping the rope In his room and on' shipboard but he did a lot of wrestling1, too, and this Is about all that Is necessary, for there Is nothing better to develop the muscles. Improve the wind and tone up the system. A wrestler who Is obliged to re a child reaches for a gumdrop.

There will be much interest here during the week In the preparation for the Trinity-Wesleyan game at Middle-town next Saturday and from the showing made by the team against Holy Cross, the backers of the local college will go down to Middletown overflowing with confidence. Yale will not have such a pudding next Saturday as she did on the last day of October, for the Brown bear will journey to New Haven and see what he can do to the bulldog of Old Ell. Then, there will be quite a fuss at Cambridge, for the Indians will go up against Harvard.

The Tigers will entertain Dartmouth at Princeton. Six thousand spectators shivered at West Point on Saturday and saw the Army repulse the Tiger attack. For a time It looked as if the Tigers would compel the Cadets to capitulate but the latter nailed their colors to the mast and hurled defiance at the Invaders to remove them. Princeton had her supposedly best team out but was weak In attack. The clever Dillon directed the play and McCrohan, the star fullback, was In his position but no score was pital, convalescent from typhoid fever, and Jean was in his cosy little fiat, convalescent from being out of a job.

Hanna is anxious to get strong and well so he can jump into the manageri ages. Secretary Ford had but one times. Trinity gains were mostly on end runs by Henshaw and Xanders, while Itamsdell. Carroll and Gilder-sleeve were sent off tackle for good gains. The Trinity backfield worked with the steadiness of a machine, putting would-be tackler's out of the plays in such a way as to allow Xanders to horse of marketable age, and if Mr.

Harbison, Mr. Tranter and other horsemen are right In their conclusions the near future Is not unlikely to see something more like a dearth of horses than al arena. chance to double his tracks with the averages and he will probably be satis-fled hereafter with the $50 allowed him by the league for compiling the dispatches. The averages of the Connecticut State Bowling League are as fol Before the roller polo question was play. The victory was signal.

Manager Hanna announced that he had signed some men for his 1909 baseball team and he expected to have a nine at the getaway that would be a little different from the one that Holy Cross played the open game at first, but were forced to resort to proudest moment In my life," he said afterward In relating the Incident.

England Is already aroused over the growing signs of such a thing In Great Britain, and both the war office and the minister of agriculture, are giving serious consideration to the matter.

In the United States the federal department of agriculture has a well organized bureau of statistics for gathering crop reports, and It would seem like, a wise move in the interest of the farmer and the whole country to ultilze the machinery of this service for collecting reports on the horse breeding industry at the present time.

The averages are as follows: ttoekwell, Walter Camp and Lieutenant Carey of Fort Gibbon. Alaska, who postponed his furlough for the West Point games with Princeton and Annapolis. He brought $1,000, which was subscribed by the officers of the post to bet on the Army against the Navy. The Navy sustained its first defeat of the season, going down before the Indians, 16 to 6. All of the points for Carlisle were made by Balentl, the little quarterback, who established a record by lifting four field goals from placement.

All the were from the lineup and two of them were from bad angles. It was the first game that the Indians ever won at Annapolis. The Massachusetts Agricultural College did not prove to be a good trial horse for Yale at New Haven as last year's champions ran up a score of 49 to 0. Hobbs was given a good tryout and performed well. Captain Coy made four of the touchdowns.

Yale used two full elevens and sent In substitutes fast In the second half. Butt-sey Naedele started the game at right end. Brown lost to Harvard at Cambridge, 6 to 2. Harvard was handlcaped by the absence of Captain Burr. White made most of the gains for the Crimson The work of the Harvard ends was poor and the backfield was ragged In handling punts.

At Ithaca, the big Cornell team defeated Pennsylvania State, 10 to 4. Amherst was defeated by Dartmouth at Hanover. 17 to 0. Wesleyan was defeated by the Training School at Springfield, 11 to 0. Williams was defeated at to 0.

At New Haven, the Yale freshmen defeated Phlllips-Andover, 22 to 0. Coach Stagg's Chicago team defeated Minnesota's aggregation at Chicago, 29 to 0. Williams, who coached Minnesota, was assisted by Tom Shevlln and Pudge Ileffelllnger.

Hobbs goes over 200 pounds when trained down fine and he Is strong, too, but the ponderous form and shaggy head of Andrus, gives him a grizzly bear aspect as he pounds the earth on the gridiron. Mosey King, At the Wethersfleld avenue baseball grounds, Saturday afternoon, the Hartford High School football team was defeated by the New Britain High, 34 to 6. The game was New Britain's from the start and the local boys were lucky to get out of it without a much larger score. The New Britain boys completely outclassed Hartford in almost every department of the game. Captain Nielsen held his own in punting and made some very long kicks.

New Britain's eleven had a great advantage of being composed of almost entirely old players and only two new men were In the lineup, while In Hartford's lineup all but four were new men. The visiting team scored after three plays in the first minute of play. The game was slow at times but several brilliant plays were worked. Hartford used trie forward pass with success several times. The New Britain backs did some very star running and made runs of from fifteen to thirty yards a great many times.

There was much open playing and the double pass was used by both teams verv successfully. Hartford showed Its greatest weakness In the line and in failing to get through New Britain's excellent interference which formed In front of the runner every time. Wheeler, Hartford's star center, made some fine tackles and stopped the line plunges several times. Dunn at fullback played the best for New Britain and Mitchell and Parker also did very well. A large crowd witnessed the game.

There are four clubs in the league now and it was decided that another would be as unnecessary as five legs for a horse. Andy Kelly, alias Peter Maher, got a big scoop upon the rival managers by signing Sweet, who was in such great demand by the clubs at the first meeting that all the managers took a hand in signing him. But Kelly landed the great player and he will be seen only In the Trojan lineup.

Manager George Bone of New Haven consulted a chiropodist yesterday and learned that one of his toes was fractured. The fracture was reduced and the famous player will be in the game again in a few days. He said that In the last game he played against Hartford, Barney Doherty jumped on his feet accidentally and he thinks Barney had a few horseshoes concealed in his moccasins. The games scheduled for tonight are: Salem at Bridgeport, Brockton at Fall River, Worcester at Providence. Pawtucket at New Haven.
