Providence, R. Oct. 12. Yale defeated Brown at football yesterday 10 to 0. Tale was unable to score In the first half, although the ball was In Brown's territory most of the time.

Brown won the toss and chose the west goal, while Tale kicked oft. Barry secured the ball and made fifteen yards, and then Brown by steady playing carried the ball to Sale's thtrty-five-yard line, where they lost It on a fumble. Tale then rushed matters, and slowly forced Brown back until the ball was on her flve-yard line. Here a grand resistance was made by Brown, and she lie Id for three downs, time being called with the ball on her two and one half Jard lines. When the players came out or the second half there was no change In the llne-np, but when play was resumed Shevlin was soon substituted for Glass, and he wa3 easily the star, making a fifty-five yard run for a touchdown by magnificent dodging and aided by good interference.

The goal was r.ot kicked. Soon after Yale forced Erown to her forty-yard line, Shevlin making most of the gains. Here Brown held for three" downs and Metcalf dropped back and made a beautlfql froal from the field from the forty-yard ine. Brown's right side of the line was like a stonewall, but the left side was weak. SOPHOMORES WO.

A SALE THAT'S A MONEY-SAVER HIS Change of Owner ship bale is recognized as a genuine money- saver on trie hnest Clothes built for American wear. It is absolutely unique in the fact that every article in the whole store is cut in price. The $40 Overcoat and the 50-cent necktie each share in the price-cutting. We speak modestly about these things, because the class of men who buy our clothes are discriminating, and read bnglish for what, it means, and not because it is high-faluting. And when we tell them that we have cut the price on all our superior clothes they know it means an immense fruitage of bargain plums.

The sale is very suc cessful, thank you. rmnaft 34.38 38 AoYUJM ST.

LANYON'S BOXTOUND. Was I'ndcr Steps of Constable's House Some Kind of a Hoax Suspected. Cheshire, Oct. 12. The strong box, containing $12,000 worth of securities, $400 cash and family heirlooms, which was missed from the vault of the town clerk's office by Senator James R.

Lan- yon, the owner, Friday, was found yesterday morning by Constable Walter J. Daley with the contents intact, under the steps leading down from the rear door of his house. Constable Daley said that the box was under a set of steps which he did not often use and he discovered it while moving some timbers which were there. It was in plain sight and might have been there some time. Senator Lanyon stated that he could not conceive why or how the box was taken.

One opinion here Is that the box was taken by some one with the intention of keeping Senator Lanyon away from the Sixth District senatorial convention, where he was a candidate for re-nomlnation and where it Is believed because of his absence" he was defeated for the nomination. The whole transaction is looked upon here as a hoax. Elected Officers. New Haven, Oct. 12.

L. 0. of WHAT TO WEAR. Smart Advice from London. (New York Herald Special.) London, Saturday.

The wedding season is now on, because those young people who can are mostly eager tV nave their matrimonial alliances concluded this month in order to get away for the honeymoon and escape the wretched weather which is naturally to be expected in early winter iu this country. Every day now there Is a wedding of more or less Interest. At one of these early autumn weddings I was struck with the fashions which are expected to prevail during the coming winter. The bride's attendants, some eight or ten In number, wore most picturesque dresses, with wonderfully effective sashes of flowered ribbon. Their hats were of quite a new shape and their black trimmed robes were fastened under the chin.

In their hands they carried long crooks fastened with roses. People in the chunh said they had seldom seen prettier dresses. Lady Cantelupe, one of the best dressed wo-wen in the church, was In brown. So was the wife of Admiral Bridge, while Lady De La Warr was in dark blue. These were the colors which prevailed, and may be regarded as the colors which are mostly to be used outdoors curing tne coming season.

Defeated by a score of 23 points to the Trinity College freshmen were obliged to acknowledge on Saturday afternoon the athletic superiority of the sophomores. It was the occasion of the annual track and field meet between the lower classes, to determine the holder of the Underwood trophy. The cup is awarded each year at the opening of college to the one clothe lower classes winning the greatest number of points In the track meet. On Saturday afternoon the meet was held on the college campus. In the track events the freshmen did not show up well, and the sophomores ran up a long lead before the field events were reached.

In the 440-yard dash, Oood-ale, 190, won easily, the time being 64 seconds, which was fast considering the condition of the ground. The mile was a closely contested race, although the time was slow. A fast sprint at the last quarter gave the race to Hem-sen, with Bulkley leading George, 1906, for second place. George was the only freshman In the race, and made an excellent showing. The half-mile run was another surprise.

Clement, 1905, lead the runners for the first lap, but In the second failed to round the last marking stake, and thus lost the race, although he was well ahead at the finish. First place went to Watson, who covered the distance In 2 minutes 6 seconds, or about four seconds faster than the college record. This does not alter the college record, however, as the time was not made In Intercollegiate competition. In the field events, Bowne, 1906, of the Hartford High, won most of the points for his class, taking first place In the shot-put, discus, high Jump and pole vault. The last two were easy for the freshmen, as the sophomores had no men who had trained for the events.

Of the 12 points made by his class, Bowne made 10. The meet was one of the most successful ever held between the lower classes. There were a good many men entered who failed to show up, but among those entered were several who will make promising candidates for the track team. The summary: WO-Yard Dash Won by Duffefl, 1905; Boyd. 19H6, second; time, 104 seconds.

Mile Run Won by Remsen, 1906; Bulk-ley, 1906, second; time, 6 minutes 3U seconds. 440-Yard Dash Won by Goodale, 19)5; Watson, 1906, second; time, 64 seconds. 120-Yard Hurdle Won bv Duffee, 19U6; Clement. 1906. and Curtis, 1906, tie for second place: time, 16 seconds.
