FOOTBALL. COLUMBIA BEATEN BY BUFFALO. TNEXPECTED DISASTER FOR THE BLUE 1 AND WHITE. Buffalo. Sept.

Columbia University's football team was defeated by the University of Buffalo in Stadium at the Pan-American grounds thin afternoon by a score of 5 to 0, it was a great surprise to the most ardent admirers of the local men. The batting before the game was about even money that the Buffalo team would not ecore. Rice, Buffalo's quarterback, kicked a goal from the field near the end of the first half, scoring the, only points made In the afternoon's play. Play began at 3:15 o'clock. Columbia won the Goodwin's kickoff the ball flying- forty yards down the field.

Mason raught It, but he was downed before he had taken five Then followed a series of runs around the ends l.v Dcceu and Mills until ball was within eight yards of Columbia's goal, when the local men lost it on downs. Columbia lost the. ball on a fumble. Buffalo tried to break through the centre, without success, and then Rice wade a. kick frotn the thirty-yard line, sending the ball through the goal.

DISQUALIFICATION BT THE FACULTY OF SIX FOOTBALL MEN MAKES THE OUTLOOK GLOOMY. Big members of the Columbia football team have Veen debarred from playing for failure to comply with the regulations required by the university of those representing her In amateur sport. Unless these, men can fulfil these requirements they will he lost to the Columbia gridiron for the season. Their absence gives a tremendous blow to Coi lumbia's hopes, for in their ranks are included Harold Weekes. halfback, and Chauncey L.

Berrion, the fullback and captain, two veritable bulwarks on whom Columbia had pinned her faith for flashing end runs and nervy line bucking. B. It Boyeeen, quarterback; A. K. Boyesen and R.

(i. Strange, halfbacks, and R. A. end, are the other four under th? edict of the faculty. All six of the students were scheduled to play in yesterday's game at Buffalo.

It is for two reasons that they have been disqualified, three men because of conditions and three because of failure to qualify as regularly matriculated students of the university. The committee declines to say which men are debarred beaaass of failure in study, on the ground that they object to blazoning abroad a student's mental deficiency. "Whether the students in question can make themselves eligible; to play later in the season is a problem that only they themselves can decide. If they are able to repair their deficiencies and matriculate properly, the committee will be the fina to welcome their return; but until that time the faculty Is determined that only the highest standard- -hall prevail as regards the amateur tutus of the athletes who represent Columbia. The loss of Weekes Is one that the university can ill afford.

In addition is the university's best all around athlete having rowed In his freshman crew, been member of the track team and the university's strong man. Weekes's disqualification has been threatened before, but each time he has managefl to maintain a sufficiently high rank to conttnut his athletics. Berrien is captain of the team and fullback. Eapfdafly.

as he is leader of the team, is It regarded as unfortunate that he should have been unable to play with his eleven at Buffalo yesterday. Bayard Boyesen. because of Townsend's injury, has been quarterback, and, except for the most Imporiaju gamer, when Sykes was expected to come out, was regarded as a fixture for the position.

iBT TELEQRir-H TO THE TRIBrNE.I Philadelphia. Sept. Pennsylvania surprised every one by the good showing her football team made to-day in Its Initial game, with Uni- I versity, which it defeated by the score of CS to D. Over throe thousand people turned out to see the I opening game, and the good work of the new men pent them home In a hopeful frame of mind. Lehigh opposed to the Quaker youngsters a team with right regulars in the lineup, hut.

puzzling as it may seem, it was the Bethlehemltes who snowed i the lack of headwork and whose fumbling was so noticeable, and not (he Quaker novices. To-day's game shows that Pennsylvania has i much good material, and that for this time of the year they are playing good hall. The game also seemed to prove that Pennsylvania cannot rely on her straight back plays this sea- son. In the first half open play was resorted to i and four touchdowns were made. In the second a purely line bucking game was played, and only one i tally resulted.

Howard was the bright particular I star of the afternoon, mainly through the clever manner in which he ran back kicks and captained the team. Bennett's punting was good, and an Immense Improvement on anything that he lias shown In practice. The half started by Bennett returning Fuller's punt and Davidson picking up Dow's muff of the name and scoring. But the ball was brought back for offside. Lehigh could not gain, and again Bennett punted.

Once more Dow obliged by fum- Ming, and Donaldson scored. Ludes's good end run i and Bennett'a thirty yards on a delayed pass soon allowed Pennsylvania to get within striking dis- tance, and Davidson was sent through the lino for a touchdown. Bennett's kicking soon brought the ball to Lehigh's twenty-five yard line. Here Fuller fell back for a punt, Bennett blocked the I- and I Baird fell on the ball behind the line. At Ben- nett had again out kicked Fuller ami more i blocked one of his kicks, Davidson rent i through the lino.

With the whole team tiding him, he broke through cleanly and ran twenty yards for a tally. In the second half the guards were kept ham- merlng at the lino, with rather poor success. They gradually forced the ball down to Lehigh's twelve- yard line, and Town send then was pent around left end for a score. Lehlgh then held her own. Da- vidson muffed Fuller's kick-off, but once more he went through the entire Lehlgh line and ran sev- enty-five yards for a touchdown.

YALE'S GIANT RUSH LINK DOES GREAT WORK. Sept. 21. By the score of 23 to Yale won her first football game of the season, defeating Trinity College. The visiting eleven had no chance to score at any point of the game.

In fifteen minutes Yale had scored two touchdowns. and was about to make the final assault to make a third when the first half ended. In the second half, of only ten with hulf the. team composed of substitutes, the Yale team scored twice, also. The work of the giant rush line was an lrroslstihlo assault.

At quarterback and in back field work De Saulles did remarkable work throughout the first half. Chadwlck and Hart were halfbacks, with Wilhelmi fullback. In the second half Fox and Shaw as halves and Vaiulorpoel at fullback did fully as well. Goss as a of the Stillman order seems a possibility. for Trinity, did the best work.

CONDITIONS AT TALE. COMPLAINT ABOUT LACK OF COACHES-A GOOD 'VARSITY SQUAD. Xew-Haven. Sept. 28 The second week of Tale's football practice finds the Blue team in a more hopeful position than a week ago, but still greatly in the dark as to the possible development of the eleven before the biff games begin.

Last year at this time the wealth of material was en-iking, hut this year, while there Is a good varsity squad, the character of the second team is not up to the mark. Captain Gould is satisfied that he ran develop a strong 'varsity, but is afraid that he will not have enough men of "varsity calibre with which to fill positions at a crisis. One team cannot go through a season, as a rufe, Columbians magnificent showing of. last year with but thirteen men to the contrary notwithstanding. What Is needed at is a wider circle of 'vanity candidates, especially for the.

back field, and this lack, showing- so prominently now. makes the future look dark. Murphy, Yale's trainer, is also dissatisfied. One lack this Is competent nnd steady head coaching. Yale Ir starting out on the dangerous but enforced policy ot getting along without a chief of staff to manage things, George StlHman.

last year's 'varsity tackle, will be here most of season, but Stillman Is not or Brown. He will be assisted by a goodly array of old players, who will come down for a week at a time, but this Is a plan that in previous years, especially with the crew, has proven dangerous. While Butterworth. Hlnkey, Adee, Cross, Hall, lleffeiflnger, Corbln and the rest are strong men as the fact that no one of them will be here permanently Is most unfortunate. The coaching problem is the most serious that Yale has to face this fall.

Of the candidates for this year's team, there are. half doien who arc of remarkable promise, while, of the others a half dozen more will be available. Of last year's eleven, four men will Gould, left end; Olcott. centre: Sheldon, right guard, and Chadwlck, halfback. This leaves most of the line and all but one place behind the line to be situation worse than on any other of the big college teams.

There is, however, much promise for a fast and strong line, the weakness of the team promising to develop in the back field. For centre Olcott may be' played, though this week Holt has played there, and the freshman. lalso ft possibility. three men, with Hamlln. NEW- YORK DAILY TRIBUTE.

SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER CO. lOoi. a last year's tackle, form a splendid selection for centre rash, all four being heavy men. with dash and experience.

"Dick" Sheldon taking right guard, there is a remarkable set of men for the other guard. One of the four centre men may try guard, and Olcott is likely to be played there. In Murphy, a heavyweight senior, and O'Neill. Overall and I'heips. there are fair substitutes outside of the first pet of guard candidates.

Sheldon's poor physical condition, however, may keep him out of the game for several weeks (he has not played yet i. and this may change plans for the right guard position. The centre trio is bound to he both heavy and fast, and Yale has no fear of this important department of the team. For tackle there is also little fear that good men will not be developed. Neither Stillman nor Bloomer, of last year's eleven, will play 'varsity tackle this year.

Stillman Is coaching and Bloomer, owing to poor stand, will not be permitted to play on the 'varsity this year, though he will play on the second team. In Eiogan and (Joss, however, there are two tackles of remarkable ability. (snss tried for the team last season at tackle, but was injured and had to retire early. He spent summer In the North and Is in prime condition. and Is regarded ns practically assured of left tackle.

For right tackle Tale has a brilliant new man In Hogan. who was captain of last year's Exeter team and a tackle of renown. He Is regarded by man; an better than Bloomer. Francis is another tackle who is able to take a. 'varsity position, and in Drummond '-rill another first class man will he found.

Tackle is therefore well cared for. At end Captain Qould, last year's "varsity left end, Is by all odds Hie best man on the team, as his brilliant work last year showed. He will take one end. At right end there is a long list of very fast nnd capable players. RafPerty and Ferguson, of last year's "sub." list.

arc perhaps the leading candidates, but there are also Ward, Benham. Abbott and Rockwell, all good end players. Rockwell wns an Kxeler end last season and a fast man. The line of the coming Tsle team Is therefora most promising, and will be fully as strong as last year, with the exception of Brown, who Wai the greatest guard In Yale football history.

A RErORD PACE TO WAGON, LITTLE ROY. DRIVEN BY HIS OWNER. SETS THE WORLD'S MARK AT 2:02. Fifteen hundred persons witnessed a remarkable performance by Frank G. Jones's fast pacer Little Boy, at Empire City Park yesterday afternoon.

Starting to beat the champion amateur wagon record. Mr. Jones drove his horse a mile In 2:02. This 13 more than a second faster than any other harness horse, either pacer or trotter, ever covered the distance to wagon, the best previous record having been made by C. K.

G. Billlngs's crack Speedway pacer Rumps, in ISPO. The best time ever made to wagon by a pacer driven by an amateur reinsman was the cf Coney, at Terre Haute last year. Little Boy was accompanied yesterday ry a runner that served as pacemaker. Mr.

Jones sent his horse to the quarter polo in 0:31, to the half In to the three-quarters in 1:31. and to the wire In 2:02. The performance was a surprise to most of the horsemen present, Little Roy having shown poor form in a race against Prince Alert at Bethlehem, only a few days ago. His owner, however, predicted last Sunday, at the Speedway, that he would drive Little Roy a mile in 2:02 or better. The new record holder is a handsome bay gelding by Kenton, son of Harkaway.

His dam was by Longfellow, son of Mambrino Patchen. Mr. Jones purchased him for $5,000 about a month ago. after driving him a public trial in to wagon at Washington Park, in Chicago. This performance was not a record, however.

The harness races at the matinee of Road Drivers' Association resulted In some good sport. In winning the free-for-all race, Frederick Oerken's crack trotter. The Monk, turned the track in 2:10 to wagon, driven by his owner. This equalled the best time ever made by a trotter in a race to wagon with an amateur driver behind him. The Monk finished the mile In a big jog.

and could have gone a second faster, probably. The sweepstakes race for two-year-old trotters had only two starters, and it proved to be a one-sided affair. ex-Mayor Hugh J. Grant's nlly Bugle beating Anthony X. Brady's Amelee In and 2:.

Madison Square Garden was thronged last night, from the arena to the roof seats by enthusiasts eager to witness the bicycle races. The special match race between M. Hurley, of the New-York Athletic Club, and George C.

Schrelber, of the Harlem Wheelmen, furnished one of the most spirited contests of the season. The first heat, at a quarter mile, was won by Schreiber. after a fine finish, by half a wheeL In the half mile Hurley set the pace, and although Schreiber made a determined effort to pass him the champion had the more speed and won by a wheel The final heat, at one mile, brought the spectators to their feet, and their cheers made the rafters ring. Hurley set the pace throughout and won by about six Inches. Schreiber twice tried to pass the champion, but could not In it.

Little "Jimmy" Michael behind motor pace, made another successful assault against the records. He covered five miles in 7:30. doing the last mile in 1:20 the fastest mile ever ridden Indoors behind any sort of pace. The miles were made as follows: 4:30 3-5, 0:00 and 7:30. Kramer and Taylor were expected to meet in the one mile handicap for professionals, but Kramer did not qualify in his heat, and some of the spectators thought he did not try to qualify, as he had no desire to again meet the colored rider.

Just nineteen men started in the 25-mlle race, in which Schreiber made his first appearance as a professional. Schreiber won the 5 and 15 mile prizes, Fenn the 10-mile, and Housman the 20-mile. Kramer took the lead half a mile from the finish, survived the terrific sprint, and won by half a length. McFarland beat out Taylor about the same distance, the colored man not making his sprint soon enough. The time.

Nothing In all the disreputable politics of Hudson County equalled the outrages on the ballot committed by Democratic election officers and managers, and Tammany, In the worst days of Tweed, never attempted such barefaced corruption. Ballot boxes were stuffed, and in a number of districts suspicious men of the other side forced them open and exposed scores of ballots in the boxes. Primary places designated In the official call were changed at the last moment, without any notice, and hundreds of vote were unable to vote. Their votes were represented by ballots already in the boxes. In many districts the vote cast far exceeded, and even doubled, the Democratic vote cast in the last Presidential election.

Polling booths were constructed in a way to give one of the factions complete control of the ballot box. and voters could not even see their votes, handed to these men, placed in the box. Hundreds of repeaters were rushed from polling place to polling place under the. guidance of county commltteemen. and their votes were freely accepted, protest or no protest.

In strong Seymour districts there was a semblance of fair play This was evidently according to orders. In other districts, manned by able Seymour managers, the election officers had Instructions that if there was any intereference with their arrangements to abandon the place at once and set up the ballot box elsewhere. In one district of the Fifth Ward the election officers skipped. A new got were elected by the crowd assembled, and a large vote was polled. An hour afterward tho Id election officers set up shop across the street for twenty minutes, received twenty-three votes, closed the boxes and hurried to county committee headquarters, where Chairman Nugent recognized the returns as regular and declared the anti-Seymour delegates elected.

in a number of districts a moving primary game was played by Nugent crowd. The primary of the Second District of the Second Ward was at No. 234 Halsey-st. The polls were opened and twentythree votes were cast for Seymour. Then came a Drp (gooba.

28 Joseph B. Teer. a small planter, living fifteen miles back In the country, near Ackerman. who had been for some time, committed suicide yesterday. In the morning he left house ami went toward a cotton pen a quarter of a mile away The man's little daughter, a child of twelve, asked permission to go meet her father, and trotted across the cotton fields toward the little log building where the fresh picked fleece was stored.

On entering the house, however, the first object to meet her view wan the body of her father swinging from one of the rafters, still twisting and squirming in the agony of strangulation. The little girl realized that If she ran for assistance she could not possibly return In time to prevent death, and yet she was too small to reach the rope, even if she had had anything with which to cut It. There was but one other thing to do, and, shrieking for help, the chlkl clasped her father around the legs with all strength In her little body she lifted him bodily and held him up high as she could to loosen the tension on the rope. or. relaxing from time to time when at end of her strength.

The child battled for her parent's life for nearly half an hour, until a workman heard her cries and came to the rescue. When cut down Teer was atilt alive. But his life could not be saved, and never recovered consciousness. Thus the. child's heroism was without the fruit it deserved.

The little prostrated by the fearful ordeal, nnd it Is feared she miv have Injured her back by an effort far beyond her strength. DEATH OF MRS. F. F. PROCTOR.
