Mr. Hobart's Career. Garret Augustus Hobart was the twenty-fourth vice-president of the United States. He was born in Long Branch, N. June 3, 1844.

His ancestors were English on his father's side and Dutch on his mother's. Addison W. Hobart, father of the vice-presldent, was a schoolmaster 1n Long Branch. Later he removed to Keyport, N. where he kept a store.

Garret Hobart was sent to the district school, and later attended a classical school. He was fitted for college at the age of 14, and a year later he entered the sophomore class at Rutgers, He took the prize in mathematics, and at his graduation in 1863, was chosen to deliver the English salutatory. Shortly after leaving college, he became a teacher in Marlborough, N. and three months later he entered the law office of Socrates Tuttle in Paterson, whose daughter, Miss Jennie Tuttle, he married in. 1869.

In order to support himself while studying law he worked early and late, copying law papers, and acting as a clerk in the First National Bank in Paterson, of which institution he afterward became a director. Mr. Hobart was admitted to the bar of New Jersey in 1866, and was very successful in business. His practice was for the most part as a counselor, and he was the executor of many estates. When, In 1875, he was made receiver of several New Jersey railroads, he succeeded in the course of a very few years in making them pay their debts and was able to return them to their stockholders with a surplus.

In 1865 he was appointed clerk to the grand jury. In April, 1868, he was given his first political office, that of Judge of election in the Fourth Ward of Paterson, and three years later he was made city counsel.

EASY WORK FOR ELEVENS.

Yale and Princeton, Practicing SigNew Haven, Nov. The work. of the Yale football men was almost rudimentary to-day, so easy and light was it. In fact the regular 'varsity eleven, as it lined up in the first half of last Saturday's game, was not given any work except going through nals and chasing punts down the field. McBride and Sharpe alternated in ing the punting, Brown and Olcott, the guarding: Francis and Stillman, the tackling and Hubbell and Snitjer, the end work.

The men were run down the fleld in pairs, but were not permitted to tackle the backs who caught the ball. This work was kept up for twenty minutes perhaps, after half an hour of signal in going through the ordinary formations. The 'varsity men were over to help conch the freshman eleven, which was sent through a lively minutes of practice against the 'varsity eleven's substitutes. Coaches Hinkey, Bull, Hartwell, Murphy and Morris U. Ely were on hand and assisted Head Coach Rodgers.

They also took a hand in the morning signal drill of the 'varsity, and also aided in developing the enda of the 'varsity aggregation. The coaches will probably not send the regulars in for any more hard work, because there 18 no need of risking injury to any of the regular eleven, and all feel that after the game with Harvard there is not much more football for the players to learn. The most that can be desired is to keep the men well and in condition. Thomas, who was badly Injured in the Columbia game, came out again as a candidate for end. He will make 8 good substitute.

Hale, who played center last Saturday far better than was expected, was given somewhat more work than the others. He, with Quarterback Fincke and Halfbacks Keane and Chadwick, went to one side of the fleld and got in a little work In passing the ball and starting. Though all four worked earnestly they did not act very much as if they were practicing for a championship game. Hale wanted to keep It up, but peremptory orders for him to join the running squad stopped his passing of the ball. Secret Practice at Princeton.

Princeton, N. Nov. practice covered the entire routine of the gridiron work again to-day on Osborne fleld, and the Tigers put up desperate efforts to make the best possible showing against the scrub team. Brisk, snappy signal practice was run through for half an hour, and considerable attention was given to kicks, after which the team lined up for two 20- minutes halves against the scrubs. The playing showed a slight improvement over yesterday's work.

The varsity got two touchdowns in the first half and one in the second, and kept the scrubs from crossing their goal line. A noticeable improvement was made on interference. Some of the coaches attribute the varsity's scoring to a weak scrub, but the students are beginning to feel more encouraged as to the outcome of Saturday's game. Several changes were noticed in the team's make up. Hillebrand, Mills, McCord and Hutchinson were given a rest.

G. Lathrope and Knight were put in at halfback and did creditable work. Eddie Burke played quarter and ran the team well. Wheeler and Mattis alternated at fullback. The former showed improvement on running back punts.

Roper and Harry Lathrope alternated with Poe and Palmer at ends. Lloyd played right tackle and Craig, end on '97 team, put up such a strong game at the left guard that it is now a question as to whether Mills will be able to hold his place. After a hard practice to-morrow the team will be given a rest until the Yale game. BRISK BUSINESS IN BONDS. Total Disbursement In New York More Than $8,750,000.

New York, Nov. officials did a brisk business in bond purchases to-day, paying out more than $1,777,050 (par value) for the securities received. This brings the total disbursement in this city on the bond account since Wednesday's treasury order up to more than $8,750,000. To-day's offers contained a consignment of bonds from the firm that has been mentioned in connection with the negotiations to turn over a $10,000,000 block to the government. It is not known to what extent the firm has been represented in previous offerings.

All the "floating bonds" of the 4 and 5 per cent. issues are said to now have been absorbed by the subtreasury transactions. However this may be, an authority familiar with the negotiations of the last five days believes that future offerings at the local sub-treasury will be the result of manipulation by which the issues mentioned in the treasury circular will be exchanged for 3 per cent. bonds on a profitable basis. It was pointed out that bonds, having but a few years more to run, would not be as available for investment purposes as securities maturing many years hence, although yielding a smaller rate of interest.

The visitors took the first one in the last period and that tied the score.

Mooney drove the winning goal in and then the Meridens fell off in their play. Mooney made the last goal in 5 seconds. In the second period he made a record for the rink, caging the ball from the spot in 3 seconds. President T.

H. Murnane of the National Association attended the game and was much impressed with Hartford's system of passing. Kinsman, a new extra man for Hartford, appeared in practice and peared very lively.
