It took just about two minutes for Peter Dailey to make the acquaintance of his big audience last night at Ford's Opera House, and after that everything went Dailey's way and everybody laughed with him.

It wasn't good acting it was just Peter Dailey. He has his Own way of doing things and saying things and talking through funny songs, and all of it is inimitable. "The Country Sport," as Dailey's play is called, has been revised and had a lot of new songs added to it, but it is still the same rollicking, absurd.

Protest Against Track Laying. The West Boundary Improvement Association bas sent to Mayor Latrobe a copy of a resolution adopted by it protesting against tbe laying of street railway tracks on Ninth street in front of the Waibrook schoolhouse. was thrown close to Virginia's goal.

Virginia was desperate, and in her next attempts Princeton made no gain and lost the ball. For Virginia Price tried to run with the ball, but lost two yards. Then Mudd tried to kick, but he punted too high and Lea making a pretty catch ran fifteen yards behind gocd interference right between Virginia's goal posts. Can tain Trenchard easily kicked a goal and the score for Priuceton was six. It had taken nine minutes for Princeton to score.

McCormick's Fine Worn. Virginia again kicked the ball from the centre of the field, and Princeton got the ball off a catcb, from which no gain resulted, as the ball was lost on downs. Then Pope kicked for Virginia, and after the catch by Princeton Morse and MoCormick made small gains around the ends by clever running. First it was McCormick around one end and then Morse around the other, and finally MoCormick, by skillful dodging, worked his way through Virginia's line for twenty yards before he was downed. On the very next play Morse came around Virginia's right end and, after a run of thirty yards, was downed ten yards in front of the destined goal.

Tt was fine tackling by Pope that brought the doughty runner to the ground. Princeton tried bucking Virginia's line, but tbe gain was small until Wheeler got the ball and was pushed by mere strength right agaiust one of Virginia's goal-posts. He could do nothing in this position, and tbe teams lined up once again, and only one foot from line. Then the ball was passed to McCormick, and like a meteor he shot through the lines and scored the second touchdown, making tbe score for Princeton 10. Trenchard kicked goal again, and the score stood Princeton 13, Virginia 0, and so it remained to the end of the game.

The time of the second touchdown was eight minutes, and after three more minutes' play the first half ended with the ball in Virginia's possession in tho centre of the field. The Second Half. After a rest of ten minutes the Princetons took tbe soutn goal, while Virginia changed to the north. Lea started play by kicking for Princeton. Virginia returned the compliment by punting and Morie made a fine catch, but was downed by Price, who made a boivl plunge at hts legs.

Tbe ball was in the centre of the field and Morse and McCormick again made gains by running around the ends. Morse, by twisting and dodging, gained 20 ynrds around Virginia's right end and immediateiy afterward McCormick made ten yards through a bole in Virginia's line made by Riggs, Taylor and Wheeler. Then came a rumble behind the line on which Princeton lost the ball and Virginia was given ten yards for off-side play by Princeton. This ground was immediately regained for Princeton by Trenchard and Holly, who carried Jones bodily for ten yards while he had the ball in his arms. Virginia kicked the ball to the centre of the field, where Morse caught it and ran twenty yards before being downed.

It was first Morse and then McCormick around the ends until Virginia by a fumble would regain the ball and send it flying back to the centre of the field by strong punting. Mudd and Johnson maae several attempts, but could not circle Princeton's ends. Once Mudd gained 15 yards, but tbe ground was lost on the next two piavs. It was on one of Virginia's long punts that Morse made the prettiest play of the day. He caught tbe ball well in Princeton's field, but dropped it, only to be tackled by two men when he regained it.

It was pretty dodging and running, and Morse reached Virginia's 25-yarda line before Price stopped him. In the fall Morse twisted his ankle and retired in favor of Barnett. Barnett continued bis predecessor's good work, and in the next two plays gained ten yards by dashes around the ends. Then Virginia got the ball on downs. The ball was passed to Pope for a punt, but there was a bad fumble and it was Princeton's ball.

For holding Princeton lost 10 yards and later just as time was called on downs Virginia got the ball in the middle of the field, and tbe second half ended just as did the first. Umpire and Referee.

Our team did not work as well as usuaL Three places are to be settled on the team.

The Two Foot-Ball Teams Meet onrthe Grounds or the Catonsville Country Club Before a Throng of Fashionable Spectators The "Tigers" "Win. Princeton holds the foot-ball championship of the college teams of the United States-Yesterday afternoon the Princeton team and the eleven of the University of Virginia met on the grounds of the CountrvClub at Catonsville. Score: Princeton, 12; Virginia, 0. The champions were cheered for their victory and the Virginians for holding their strong opponents down to a comparatively small score, for It should be borne in mind that the result or the last gauieplaved between the two was: Princeton, 115; University, 0. Since then the Virginians have had the advautage of a first-class coach in John P.

Poe, a former Princeton player. Unfortunately Poo has been confined with malaria for several weeks. Th Virginians believe they might have scored against the champion Tigers had they been able to work several more weeks under Poo's guidance. As it was the Virginians have good cause to feel proud of having made a gallant fight. Going to the Grounds.

Two special trains carried twenty-two carloads of people over the Catonsville Short Line to witness the game. Many others traveled by regular trains, and still others drove to the clubhouse in drags and carriages. In all the spectators numbered about four thousand people. Included in this number were several hundred who lined the fences separating the field from road and railroad. Across the railroad track, which skirts one side of the club grounds, a small stand was erected on private property was occupied during the game.

Accommodations for Spectators. Arrangements on the club grounds were excellent. No carriages were allowed within the inclosure, their ocoupants being deposited at the Ingleside avenue entrance to the grounds. The field was divided off with ropes, leaving a space on all sides, which was filled eight and ten deep with enthusiastic watchers. An open stand was built on the west side of the field, agamst the railroad embankment.

This was filled with spectators, many ladies being among them. The clubhouse porch was reserved for the members of the Country Club and their friends. Ladies predominated here and looked on with interest, although at a distance from Interesting plays. College Colors and Tells. Nearly all the spectator displayed preference for one or the other team by sporting the college colors.

Orange and black of Princeton was conspicuous in the personal decorations. One of the turnouts was a coal black horse attached to a buggy and decorated with orange ribbons. Virginia's colors are yellow and blue. A number of tho ladies carried rugs and wraps of their favorite colors. Crowds of college men were present to cheer for their favorites.

The "Wah, Hoo, Wah," resounded from the throats of University of Virginia rtoters massed along the field lines, and mingled with the Hopkins yell from the grand stand, divided between preference for Prineetou on general sporting principles and special pride in Taylor on the Virginia team, a last year's Hopkins student. Such expressions as "Well held, Virginia!" "Now run, Virginia!" or "Finely tackled, Virginia!" "Show your teeth ana claws.Tigers," were frequently heard. Gradually the sympathy of the spectators went toward Virginia for the gallant struggle she was making against the champions, and a mighty cheer arose when the second half ended. Virginia had lost, but had won a victory in holding down Princeton's scoro. Princeton in Practice.

At 1.30 o'clock the Princeton men marched on the field and were greeted with cheers. Their costumes were not particularly band-some or clean and the improved armor for. the protection of the players' ears, noses and heads did not improve appearances, but everything looked as if the men meant business. The ear and head protectors made them resemble submarine divers. They set to work at onoe in earnest practice.

While big Dudley Riggs and little Neilson Poe were watched by hundreds as they were snapping back and passing the ball to Morse, McCormick or Burt, several hundred other enthusiasts gazed with admiration on Captain Trenchard as be practiced kicking for goal while big Wheeler held the ball. The other men punted and passed the ball and ran In a general effort to limber up for the contest. Virginia Looks Well. Virginia followed the Princetonians in a few moments. They looked more imposing than the champions as they marched on the field.

Each man wore a blue sweater, with a large letter in orange on his breast. The Virginias went through tactics similar to Princetons in practice. Changes In Flying wedges and mad rushes in bucking the centre were the usual form of starting the game last season. This year the ball must be kicked off. The general mass plays are not allowed.

Although this change does not make the play as open as might be desired by spectators, it is a great improvement, as it brings about more kicking and more running. One of the natural results was that Princeton's greater weight did not count for as much as would have been the case in more frequent mass plays. An Artful Dodger. Princeton's star performer was Franklin H. Morse, the little chunky half back, who bas become ex-Capt.

Phil. King's able successor. Morse did the lion's share of the running, and when one saw bow he did it none wonder why it was intrusted to him. It was not his speed that was remarkable, but the wonderful skill with which he dodged, squirmed and wriggled from the grasps of a dozen brawny bands and muscular arms. Near the.

close of the secoud half, after a dashing run nearly across half the field, he was thrown and slightly twisted his ankle. Then be deemed it wisest to retire, and Harnett took his place. Morse will be able to play again tomorrow. He but recently recovered from an injury to his ankle, and for that reason retired in favor of Barnett. Contrasts In the Teams.

Princeton's interference was not up to its usual standard and the backs who ran with the ball were not afforded chances of long runs. McCormick. however, when the ball was passed to bim, held up bis end with Morse, and several gains were due to him. Behind the line Princeton made several fumbles that might have proved costly. Virginia's men tackled beautifully and perhaps that accounts for Princeton's interference not being good.

J. S. Taylor, the ex-Johns Hopkins University layer. Mudd, Johnson, Hicks and Price did clever work and were Justly cheered. Virginia, however, played off-side throughout the game and gained much bv tbese tactics, as Princeton's caim of off-side play was seldom allowed.

How They Lined Up. The teams lined up as follows: Princeton. Position. Virginia. Brown Left end Mudd.

riolly Left tackle Ramsburgh. Left guard Burlingame. Riggs Centre Cockrell. Knox Taylor. guard Penron.

Lea Right tackle Hioks. Trenchard Right end Price. Poe Quarter back. S. Taylor.

Morse back Jones. MuCormaok Half back Johnson. Burt Full back Pope. The Contest in Detail. Two o'clock was the time to begin the game.

Mudd, for Virginia, sent the ball spinning through the air for twenty yards. Brown made a pretty catch, but was dowued tor a few feet. Then the ball was passed on the snap back from Poe to Morse, and like a flash the little halfback circled around Virginians right end for a gain of twenty yards before he was downed by Mudd. Then for "off side play" by Virginia fifteen more yards went to Princeton. Again was the ball passed to Morse, and this time the little fellow fell at the bottom of a heap of players, with the ball on Virginia's fifteen-yards line.

Morse tried another dash, this time at the centre. Riggs, Wheeler and Taylor made bole in Virginia's line for him, but he was downed for three yards gain. On the next snap back the ball was passed to Burt, who made a dash at Virginia's line and carried the ball over the goal line. In the scrimmage he dropped the ball, and Hicks, falling on it, saved the ball for Virginia. What at first was believed by the spectators to have been a safety touch down was only a touch back, and tbe ball was brought out in Virginia's possession to the twenty-five yards line.

Virginia kicked for twenty yards, but McCormick made a pretty catcb and regained ten tarda before he was downed by Johnson. On the next play Vir. gima regained tbe ball through a bad snap back and a fumble by Poe, Burlingame fall-lug on the ball. The Tiger Gets There. Tbe ball became Princeton's again on downs, and Virginia lost ten more yards for off side plays.

Then it again fell to Morse's lot to oarry tbe ball and be suoceeded in covering twenty yards of ground before be MANY OF TIEM BOUGHT AS SOUVENIRS Some of the Works which Had Been the Most Used Brought the Best Prices Copies of The Sun Printed in 1S37 Rare and Old Publications.

Afternoon visitors were given coupons entitling the holders to boxes of candies. One of the exhibitors gives away a piece of music to ladies visiting his booth. Pancakes, buckwheat cakes, biscuits, muffins, chocolate, tea, coffee, gelatine, syrup and soap samples are given at the various booths for consumption on the spot or to be tried at home. The subject of Miss L. A.

Willis's cooking lecture was "Warming Over." This was her menu: Beef a la Jardiniere. Fritadellas a la Soyer. Curry Sauo9. Chicken Terrapin. Miss Willis wrote for The Sun the following description of the manner in which she prepared each dish: Beef a la Jardiniere.

Put into a saucepan one pint of beef broth, one sprig of parsley, a bay leaf, one onion, one tablespoonful of capers and one teaspoonful of chopped gherkins. Mix one tablespoonful of butter and one tablespoonful of brown flour to a paste. Stir into tbe other Ingredients. Take slices of underdone beef and score each slice into dice, but do not cut deep enough to separate tbe squares. Salt and pepper the slices, put them in the saucepan, sprinkle lightly with chopped parsley and sweet marjoram, and cook one hour.

Serve on a dish with carrots and turnips cut into dice and boiled until just tender. Fritadellas a la Soyer. Soak a half pound of bread crumbs in one pint of cold water. Chop fine a half pound of any kind of cold cooked meat. Squeeze tbe bread in a cloth to extract the water.

Brown two table-spoonfuls of butter with two tablespoon! uls of chopped onion; add the bread, then tbe meat, a half teaspoonful of salt, a dash of pepper, a little nutmeg and the grated rind of half a lemon. Stir until very hot. Then add two eggs, one at a time; mix well and turn out on a dish to cool. When cold form into egg-shaped cakes, flatten a little, dip into egg and bread crumbs and fry in smoking hot fat. Curry Sauce.

Slice a medium-sized onion and cut half ah apple into dice. Put two tablespoonfuls of bacon, cut into dice, into a saucepan with one level tablespoonful of butter. Stir over the fire for five minutes. Add a teaspoonful and a half of flour and a half teaspoonful of curry powder and mix well. Then add a half pint of milk and boil until rather thick.

Strain and serve. Chicken Terrapin. Put one pint of chicken meat cut into dice into a saucepan. Bub together one tablespoonful of flour and a halt cup of butter. Add this to the chicken with one-fourth of a teaspoonful of ground mace, one-eighth of a teaspoonful of cloves, half a teaspoonful of salt and cayenne to taste.

When thoroughly heated add the whites of three hard-boiled eggs, chopped fine. Mash the yolks to a paste with half a cup of cream. Add this to the chicken aud stir until it comes to tbe boiling point. Then add one gill of sherry and serve at once. General Remarks.

The many and varied ways of preparing and warming over cold meats into not only palatable, but attractive and delicious dishes, are thoroughly understood by the French cooks. Disguised as a Miroton, Ragout or a Fritadeila, we Americans, who exclaim against our own peculiar Institution hash eat of these preparations with the greatest relish and enjoyment, without suspecting the presence of our bete noir. If one would study these little economies more closely and caref would be able to provide as great a variety of dainty dishes at little cost, without resorting to tbe all-prevailing hash. BALL PLAYERS FINED. McHahon and Gleason Pay $35 Each for Attacking a Patrolman.

The lia Oyster-Packing Plants to Be Brought Here from North Carolina. A dispatch from Raleigh, N. states that all the oyster-canning plants which were established in North Carolina a few years ago aro being removed to Baltimore. This is the winding up of an enterprise In which a large number of Baltimore oyster-packers were interested and by which they lost considerable money. Three or four years ago, when oysters were scarce aud bich in the Baltimore market, many of the packers here formed the North Carolina Packing Conlpany with a capital of 30.030, and established canneries at Beaufort, New-berne and Washington, in that State, tor the packing of North Carolina oysters.

Oysters were plentiful in North Carolina and tho company started out with excellent prospects. The canneries which It built were equipped with the best of machinery. The lack ot shipping facilities, the rehandling of packed goods and the necessity of having all the cans used shipped South from Baltimore operated as disadvantages and the company lost money rapidly. Added to this, the North Carolina Legislature passed laws making the catching of oysters more expensive, whfeh resulted in largely increasing the cost of tho oysters to the paoker.besides making the supply somewhat uncertain. Since the packers were not in the business for their health, as one who bad lost by the project remarked yesterday, there was nothing to be done but to wind up the affairs of the concern.

The Vandermere Oyster Company, composed of the Houghton Packing Company, the Martin Wagner Company and W. W. Boyer bought the plant at Beaufort, and it is expected to arrive in Baltimore in a day or two. The steamer Alva, on which It was shipped to Baltimore, went ashore Ht Harbor Island last Friday, but was reported to have gotten off In safety. The other plants were bought by Moore Brady and by J.

S. Farren and will be brought to Baltimore shortly. There are but two other oyster-packing plants in North Carolina in which Balti-moroans are not interested, and these are reported for sale. One is at Beaufort and the other is at Newberne. A packer said yesterday that oysters could not be tracked in North Carolina or anywhere else to compete with those packed in Baltimore unless they could be bought at a figure a great deal below that which oysters bring in this city.

The supply for the coming season, be said, would be a full one and since the Maryland Legislature has passed the culling law be does not think the supply will be again so short here as to make the packers look for other sources of supply. MARYLAND ODD-FELLOWS. The Annnal Communication of the Grand Encampment Begins. The annual communication of the Grand Encampment of Maryland, Independent Order of Odd-Fellows, began last night at Odd-Fellows' Hall, corner of Cathedral and Saratoga streets. Grand Patriarch William N.

Nant presided and Grand Scribe John M. Jones was secretary. In his annual report the grand scribe said there had been a small decrease In the membership of the order, which ho attributed to the financial depression and to the inability of members to obtain remunerative employment. The report recommended the establishment of a home for aged and indigent Odd-Fellows, their widows and orphans, and suggested that a committee of five be appointed to devise plans tor the establishment of such a borne in Maryland. Referring to the exposition to be beld in Baltimore in 1897, the grand 6cribe said it is expected that the Sovereign Grand Lodge will meet in Baltimore that year, and that as a result a large number of Odd-Fellows will be brought within Maryland jurisdiction who must be properly entertained.

He recommeuded the appointment ot a committee of five to watch the progress of the exposition project and to report at the next session of the grand encampment. The meeting will continue today, when the grand scribe's suggestions will be considered. The annual election of officers will be held tonight. T. M.
