DARTMOUTH VS.. U. v. NJ.
Saturdays Game of Foot Ball Results in
Defeat for the Home Team.

The often postponed game of foot ball
between the Dartmouth and University
teams was played on the campus saturday
afternoon, and it resulted in Il crushing
defeat for the home team by score of 81
too. 1t was expected that the Dart
mouths would he victorious but all
were entirely unprepared for such an
overwhelming victory for them.
1t was evident from the beginning that
the home team were woetully deficient in
regard to the fine points of the game,
but their opponents conceded that
they were adopts in "tacklngn 1t should
be borne in mind too that this was the
! first matched contest for the University
team, while the DartmOuthS have played
| four matched games within a few days
and have had thorough practice. The
home team were further handicapped by
| their ilGht weight as compared with their
opponents, the ave "Hgc difference being
about 30 pounds The Dartmouths were
stalWart, Wcll-built men and it was
amusing to see the smaller members OF
the home team try TO climb up some of the
tall visitors.
The game was called at 3:15, the Uni
Nerslty team having the send off. The
visitors at once took the ball to the home
goal ana kept it in that vicinity most OF
the time, as they did most of the time
during the game. At the end of five min
utes from the time playing began they had
won two touch downs and one goal, SCOr-
ing 10 points, Il touch down counting four
points and goal two. In the next ten min
utes the visitors repeated their victory of
the first five and during the remainder of
the game they played so as to score for
the game an average OF about point a
minute. Near the close of the first half of
the game a cold rain began falling
and continued during The remainder of the
contest, nut the home team decided to fin
ish the game although the visitors desired
to stop. During the last half of the game
the members of the home team began to
pick Up some of the visitors plays and
made it more interesting for the latter.
The visitors continued to score points,
however, until the very close of the game +,
at which time ii was almost impossible to
distinguish the players from outside lines.
The DartmOuths made II touch downs and
- goals, ! | of the latter being from touch
downs and one from the field. The teams
were composed as follows

Inquiry of DR.. Fassett ELECTS the infOr-
nation that Mr.. Hobart's condition seems
somewhat improved, but he is still very
i'll. About two weeks ago he was attack
ed with muscular rheumatism, affecting
his eXtremities, neck and shoulders, and
finally the muscles of the chest aud dia-
phragm, causing great difficulty IN breat h
ing. About a week ago acute bronchitis
came on, with bloody eXpectoration, which
greatly increased the severity of his suf-
teriug. His condition showed no improve
ment until Saturday evening or sunday
morning, and it is yet too early To call
him permanently better, although he is
much more comfOrtable.-MC SSCHger.

The scandal caused throughout large

OF Christopher Roberts, better known a,

one which is not likely to soon die ont.
Eight or ten years ago "Kip" was known
in Middlebury and Bristol a. a rather

on he got "converted" and finally set mp
for himself as an eXOOunder of the
Gospel. People in the vicinity Of
Brooksville and New Haven, as well
as Mlddlebury and elsewhere, took an in
terest in the young fellow, and he was
clothed and housed and taught and made
much of. For the past two or three years
Roberts has been holding meetings and
assisting others to hold meetings in Vari-
Ou- parts Of the State and Eastern New
York. He was considered quite an eN-
horter, in spite of the fact that many
ugly rumOrS were from time to time put
in circulation to his detriment, among

The iacts about Il certain letter which
was over TO hours in getting from Mont
pelicr to Burlngton as obtained from the
Office of the superintendent Of railway
mail service, are that the letter was in a
package which is sent down from Mont
pclier to Montpelier Junction and is there
handed to the postal clerk going east, by
whom mail matter for the west is trans
ferred to the postal clerk coming this way,
at Randolph, where the trains usually
meet. On the Saturday evening in quea-
ton the trains met at Montpelier June
ton instead of Randolph. The Burlng
tOu letter was delivered to the clerk going
east, who had no option but to take it
with him to Boston. The clerk coming
west did not have it in his hands at all
That there need be any difficulty when
trains meet ut Montpelier Junction, in
having mail matter for the west delivered
to the clerk coming this way, has not been
made plain to us. But under the crcuni-
stances of this particular case no blame
seems to attach to either clerk. For other
cases, which frequently occur of late, of
mssendlng of letters most plainly direct
ed, we suspect there is not often as good
an excuse.
