26. A terri ble loss of life is reported here by wreck this morninsr. The larcre fishing schooner Edward Norton, of and from Boston, went ashore off First Cliff Point at 6.30 last night and immediately went to pieces. Her crew consisted of sixteen men and fifteen of them have perished. One man, Allen by name, clung to the vessel and when the tide left her this morning he succeeded in reaching shore, The vessel waadiscovered bv the midnight patrol of the Life Sav-: ing Station, but too late to render assistance, She lies bottom up and is a complete wreck.

She is owned by Stibbs of Boston. The American Oaoaa Foot-Ball. It may help the public in the ap preciation of the coming football game between the Chapel Hill and Trinity College elevens to know something about the history and the preliminaries of foot-boll. The ordinary "rough and tumble" game of foot ball is destined to be no more than the game of school "bovs. The regular college game known in America as the association game is, however, a most scientific species of athletics and may well be ranked first among those sports in which the qualities of the soldier are capable of be- ing aeveiopea.

The old game is a game in which brute force and shin-kicking play a prominent part. The new game of oot ball, better known as the Rugby game, was first introduced from Eng- ana into jtiarvard uoilege sometime before 1875. Since then nearly evert college of any considerable siz9 in the New England and the Middle Stales has learned the art, and every week during October and' November the accounts of the inter-collegiate contests in foot-ball form a large part of the athletio news of the day. xu tne i ail oi its to Harvard Uol- egf, having learned to play the Rugby game, sent a challenge to Yale College to play a match game at New Haven. Ihe resnlt was that Yale in her greennes was thrashed all over the ground, though she played with that usual doggedness and desperation- for which her teams are vtill noted.

But that was the last vicory her crimson rival ever gained of the blies Yale took to unremitting practice and next year and every year alter wards defeated Harvard at! her own game. Ihere were then 15 players on each side in the game. In 1876 Princeton adopted the Rugby rules. gByi this time I ale had developed some very fleet runners among her players and saw that if the size of the teams could bs reduced her chances might be greatly strengthened. According ly in 1878 when the Foot ball Asso ciation was organized, with Harvard, Yale and Princeton as members, Yale nrged that 11 players be made to constitute a full team instead of 5.

She demons crated that the scien tific development of the game de pended on a smaller number. Litter practice has proved that Yale was not wrong; for a comparison of he original Rugby as now played in England, with the American Association game, as played in American col- egea today, shows, as many compe tent judges assent, that the American Association game is a marked improvement both scientifically and in practice, upon the English Rugby from which it sprang. No one is capable of judging of this game until he has played in it As a spectator he may consider it dangerous to the players. But it is dangerous only to the timid or the reckless, wtile to the one who plays either with a cool desperation or a furious energy there is no danger except to such as are unpracticed in meeting such players. As a rule the players can make the game a dangerous one or a safe one.

Three years aeo it was regarded as necessarily danger ous, but since then the feeling be tween the leading teams has improved and the temper of the game become milder and entirely within the limits of good manners and fair play. The public must further remember bat foot-ball players usually give a couple of months oi a any practice for the pubho contests into which they inter. This disciplines them to long runs, enlarges their breathing capacity, toughens their muscles and enables them to stand rough tackling witnou uiscuniubure. muss or quite I J- i. all of the pity bestowed by the epeo? tators upon a roughly handled player is not only wasted but would be resented by he player himself as a re- nection upon wa enauranoe.

The game is theirs so far. The teams how change sides on the field and get ready for another kick off. .5 Time and again the game is inter rupted by the ball getting outside the touch-lines.
