Time and again the ball changed hands by inches, and not until time was called was Chicago sure of victory.

XE BIT OF SLCGGIXG PUNISHED. Right EadEIcher is responsible for a multitude of lost dollars and the score ot 18 to 0 at P. A. park yesterday after noon. Before he made his run P.

A. C. fought J. to a standstill. After it, the East Enters were like eleven marionettes, on strings, with the business end of each In the hand of a collegian.

After young Elcher, from the right end of W. JVs line, skirted across behind his fellow players, and taking the ball from Captain Flowers, fairly flew around P. A. end, dodging and slipping through the fingers of eager tacklers, the same might as well have stopped. He ran 30., yards before Church pulled htm aown.

i The ball was then on P. A. C. ft 1 -ara line, anu never weni oacKwara. The husky lads from Washington had their fall stock of plays with them, and It was the variety served up that dazed the East Enders.

On the Jdck-off, just as the P. A. C. players spotted the man with the ball and waited for him, a criss- -cross hypnotized them. In a llne-UD.

the backs, ends, tackles and guards took turns. Every one but Hall In the center did execution. The line men and backs Bit P. A. tackles and guards like a oman battering ram.

Edwards ana hert galloped about the opposite ends never failed to gain. "Wiseacres, who solemnly deduced Old 'ennsy's Inferiority from the fact that J. scored against it have either un- ergone a change of sentiment or else can't change. When the series of line plays gets into operation, it takes awful work to stop it. Matthews simply jumps over the scrimmage to score.

And in these plays. W. J. will some time strike a snag. It is dangerously near a forward pass, when they work the guard play.

And on Matthews' tricks tt is nearer. When the first touchdown was made yesterday, there were not wanting witnesses to say that Flowers grave "Texas' the ball after he was over line. The act can be seen only from a point" behind and at one side of the line. The game had not lasted 5 minutes when "Beer ofP. A.

was on the list of injured. Butler, his successor, did fairly well, but in the battering tactics he was too light. Then Lovett, in a scrim mage, went down, and when his towhead touched dust, the shock was felt along the line. He stuck to it until the first half was over, Cooper Is a good sub-quarter, but tt is not to his discredit that he is not as good as "The Kid." And the general. Hoskins himself, did not escape.

His knee, always a tender spot, was twisted Jyesterday, and he a narrow escape tfrom having his neck wrung, chicken-like Gough, at full, was not a Brownlee. His two kicks were good, but there was a missed allowed Philips to sprint around behind the goal post. P. A. C.

against the Washingtonians played a bucking game. It was not theii best mode. In end runs, it might have been possible to escape from those stout collegians, but in a mass play, never. Pat terson, the giant, who tore holes in all the teams that have played in the East End. was helpless yesterday.

He hit the Hne and actually rebounded. Gough and Butler could not break tnrough the weld ed strength of Inglis and Wood, or Core and Theurer. Little Butler was fast In -getting down the field, and Gough is not slow on -his feet. Church, the end, has often made good gains. But the rare occasions when the clubmen had a chance wera devoted to bumping and plunging and pushing and gouging against that solid mass of muscle, a ton of solidity, with no one to wedge an opening.

That la luc way bu liidiij nctc uuil. ui iu 1 V.a. 1M ppite of this fact, the contest was re- inarkar ly free from pugilistic tactics. Only once there was foul interference. When Patterson -got a terrific jolt in the It was punished and stands alone There were 4,000 people watched the gridiron warriors.

After the game a disconsolate individual In canvas and red jersey sat near the entrance of the dressing room. "I wish Brownlee was in it." It was George Hoskins, and he took the defeat hard. P.

A. C. had not hitherto been beaten, had not been scored against. Lit tie wonder he mourned. Matthews' kick-off put the ball In Lov- tt's hands on the 20-yard line, and he ran it back 15 yards.

Ritchey hit left tackle for nve yards, but Patterson could not gain. Then Gough failed at center and Patterson gained a yard. Ritchey pushed through to the 45-yard line and was knocked out. Butler gained four yards on his first try, and Patterson made a small gam. It looked rosy for P.

Is Xot Allowed. DETAILS OP THE FIXE GAME. The West Virginia team came to Pittsburg coliege yesterday afternoon with grim determination written on their manly countenances. They fully expected to retrieve the defeats of the past season, and had not the faintest idea either of scored against or of allowing the game to be a tie. But the result was that they came within an ace of being beaten, and the fact of the matter is that the college boys scored a touchdown which the W.

Va. U. official would not allow. Outside of this the game was a very even one, without more than the usual kicking, without any wrangling or disputing whatever, and the visitors admitted that they never played a cleaner or a more genuine game of football, though It was Indeed a hard and aggressive one on both sides. The spectators also were wrought up to the highest pitch of excitement as the ball oscillated from side to side up and down tha field.

The ball was very close at one time to the college line, but with only a few yards to gain the big varsity men could not make the requisite gains in the three downs, and the ball was soon put out of all danger by tne collegians. To Walker, of the home team, at run back, and Burns, at tackle, were due a great deal of the offensive work of the collegians, but all of the linesmen made a noble stand against the terrible rushes of W. Va. U. For the latter Krebs, Smith and White payed a star game in the line.

Behind the line Noble and Yeager did fast work, the latter being more noticeable for his good mterier ence than for his usually remarkable minting. Pittsburg college's right end Wall, played the best game ot his Hie in yesterday game, wnne iiara splendid and brilliant work at quarter for the first time stamps him as a com ing star. Duffey and McCarthy played their usual dashing and aggressive game always making sure gains when they got the. bail, and it was only by the most desperate and sturdy resistance that, in the second half especially, a sate and suie touchdown was prevented by the visitors. The game was certainly a genuine, red- hot article of the right sort, and at the close the big 'varsity men felt satisfied with the result, acknowledging that the heme team's work was beyond all their expectations.

The crowd was a very fine one, and Included a large number of the old stu dents of the college, who rooted them selves hoarse for the home team. The future games of the college on the home grounds promise to be real, genuine features of the football season. The visitors won the toss and took the lower end of the field. Duffey kicked to W. V.

15-yard line. On the second down the visitors pushed through the center for 10 yards. Whitham then car ried the ball around the end for five yards. He gained five more through the line. The visitors advanced the ball to the center of the field, where they were forced to kick.

O'Hara secured the ball and made live yards. Walker followed with 10 more. Duffey and McCarthy gained two each. Walker kicked. Noble capturing the ball.

Aoble gained hve vards around left end. McWhorter was tackled without gaining any ground Krebs gained five yards. Noble tried the left end, but was forced back. Repeated gains by Krebs, McWhorter. Yeager and Noble brought the ball to the college five-yard line, where it went to the col lege boys on downs.

Walker kicked 20 yards. Noble was forced back for 10 yards. Yeager lost five more. The ball was in the middle of the field, in the collegians' possession, when time was called. Score, first half P.

Roblsoi was again a hero, and made three touch downs. Captain Donohoe's goal kicking was a feature, he not missing a single goal. Dunsmore, who is working near here, was persuaded to don a jacket today, and played in his old form.N He. was one of State college's best tackles. The Tigers' line held well against the onslaughts of Greensburg's backs, but could not stop Sterrett's terrific bucking.

The game was remarkable for the absence of kicking against the officials and the clean play of both teams, there being no slugging or unnecessarily rough playing. McKenzie, the new guard, will play against Western university here Wednesday. The line-up: Tigers 0. Greensburg 30. S.

Catarrh is invariably leads to Consumption. Growing worse and worse each winter, those who rely upon the usual treatment of sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures find that it is impossible to check the disease with these local applications which only reach the surface.

The offensive discharge increases all the while, causing a feeling of personal defilement, and gets deeper and deeper until it is only a question of a short time until the lungs are affected. The importance of the proper treatment can therefore be readily appreciated. But no good whatever can be expected from local applications, as such treatment never did cure Catarrh, and never will. Being a blood disease of the most obstinate nature, Swift's Specific (S. S.

is the only remedy which can have the slightest effect upon Catarrh, Sevrickley Defeats Crafton. Sewlckley's first eleven downed the Craftons yesterday at Sewickley In one of the best games ever played on the grounds. The home team's work shows the coaching Van Cleve has been giving the boys, for they held their line- well, tackled hard and sure and bucked the line like so many battering rams, as well as sending the backs around the ends and full through the line for good gains. Lake was away off In his goal kicking, as he missed three chances after touchdowns. Crafton could do little or nothing with the Sewickleyans, and beyond playing a stiff, defensive game were not In the hunt.

The score stood 12 to 0 at the end of the second half. Martin, McDonald, Van Cleve and Fiscus, a brother of the Greensburg player, distinguished themselves In their several ways. Results at Morris Park. NEW YORK, Oct. SO.

"I had such a severe case of Catarrh that I lost my hearing in one ear. and part of the bone in my nose sloughed off. I was constantly treated with sp- ays and washes, but each winter the disease seemed to have a firmer hold on tne. I had finally been declared incurable when I decided to try S.S.S.

It seemed to get right at the seat of the dis- niri- ana curea ine permanently, lor jl navo JLk'f had no touch of Catarrh for seven years." Mrs. JosiiFHisrK Polhill, Due West, S. Those who have had the first touch of Catarrh will save endless suffering by taking the right remedy at the outset. Others who have for years sought relief and found only disappointment in local treatment will find it wise to waste no further time on sprays, washes, inhaling mixtures, etc. which are only temporary and cannot save them from Consumption.

They should take a remedy which will cure them because it can reach their trouble. S. S. S. is the only remedy which can reach Catarrh; it gets at the very bottom of the disease and cures it permanently.
