HARVARD DEFEATS YALE.
a Brilliant Game Between the Great Uni
versity Teams.

versity Teams.
SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Nov. 22-The Harvard
eleven defeated the Yale team here this after
noon by score of 12 to in one of the most
brilliant games in the history of football.
Both teams played like clockwork, and for the
first half neither was able to score, though Yale
was the aggressor throughout, with strong
wind in her favor. The loss of Mcbride who
was every bit as good as Trafford at punting in
last years game, was keenly felt by Yale to-
day. The crowd that gathered on Hampden
Park was greater than that of last year.
The college colors were so universally worn
that it seemed as if every man and woman on
the two sides were clothed with crimson or
blue, and the multitude of flags was countless.
The Yale and Harvard cheers were kept up
without cessation from start to finish and the
enthusiasm when Harvard scored her first
touchdown was something unheard Of The
referee and umpire were Messrs. George and
Irwin, of Princeton. The elevens lined up at

What proved to be the most interesting game
of football played here this season took place
yesterday at Capitol Park, the opposing teams
being the Columbia Athletics and LAFAYETTE
College, of Easton, Pa. 1t was interesting from
the fact that every yard of vantage ground was
stubbornly contested by the twenty-five men,
and consequently it was a match that kept the
spectators lively throughout the game The
game started auspiciously for the Columbias.
In the first four minutes they secured a touch
down by some excellent sprinting of Butter
worth, but afterward they failed to add point
to their score, try hard as they might. They
were somewhat handicapped by the absence of
two of their best players, Harlan and Veasey.
though the presence of Cash, an old Prince
tonian, made up considerably for their loss
Byrne was placed at full-bacli, and being new
to the position made several blunders that
operated badly for his team. The visitors were
also handicapped by the absence of their best
player-their centre rush-who was injured on
Friday at the University of Virginia. At times
bad blood was shown and some scrapping took
place. Once Lieut.. Kelly was obliged to sepa-
rate the men. In the preliminary practice the
Columbas showed up to better advantage and
il looked to the unframed eye that they had a
walk-over, as the Lafayettes did not play much
for shape. In the game they displayed excel
lent judgment in their interfering and tackling,
and, though lighter by many pounds, showed
far the better team work As they lined up
they were placed as follows:

Powder.

A clever piece OF ferriting out the
guilty parties was accomplished by Mar
shal Lewis last Sunday. The house of
Mr.. John Swisshelm, north OF Clear
Greek, was entered on last Sunday and
a gold watch, two revolvers, a finger
ring, purse with little money and
some gun cartridges were taken. Two
lads by the name of John Grant and
James Edwards were arrested at the
house of Dan Williamson, who resides
near the Fair Grounds, late Sunday
evening. The stolen property was found
either ON the person OF the boys or
where they had deposited it. The trial
was had before Mayor Dawson last Mon.
day afternoon and the boys bound over
to court, Edwards in the sum OF $500
and Grant in 5000 bond. The boys are
both young, Grant apparently not more
than fourteen, while Edwards might be
sixteen or perhaps seventeen.

More Iawlessness.

A disgraceful stabbing afIray took
place last Saturday evening on the Main
street plank walk, which has an unen-
viable reputation as place Of question
able resort for various kinds Of characters.
The stabbing was done by q colored man
named Ed. Mcfarland, and his victim
was Amos Medley. Medley was stabbed
in four different places and DR.. Eoyt, to
whose Office he was taken, says that two
OF the wounds are dangerous. We know
nothing as yet of the cause of the diff
Guilty, but have this to say, that lawless.
ness Is entirely too common. We are
not OF the opinion that the world is
growing worse, but certain classes show
no signs OF improvement. Certain names
OF oflawless characters appear too frequent
ly on the Mayors docket. There is also
a sickly sentimentality in reference to
the treatment of criminals that needs to
be uprooted. Often the most hardened
criminals are referred to as just like
other men, that they possess conscience
like all others II you can reach it. The
visible difference in the conscience idea
is that 1t is so seldom reached, while the
real difficulty is in discovering any differ.
ence in the outward appearance. If a
man is known lawbreaker treat him as
lawbreaker, and not as saint to whom
you wish to pay your respects and pre-
sent with boquet. The case of Nc.
Farland is perhaps no worse than thou.
sands of others, but the resort to a
deadly weapon places it in the list Of
high crimes. The charge against Nc.
Farland was stabbing with intent to kill.
The case came up for hearing last Tues
day morning at 10 o'clock, but was con-
tinued on account Of Medley not being
able to attend. In reference to crimes
and their punishment the Chicago Times
gives the following:
According to figures compiled we find
that out of 14,779 murderers who took
human life in the six years from 1884 to
1889, only 55S paid the penalty of their
crimes by yielding their own lives to the
law.
1t will be seen from the above that a
little over three per cent. suffered the
death penalty for their crimes. 1t may
be questioned from this whether our
laws are the terror to the disobedient
that they should be, and whether we
are not drifting away from a wholesome
enforcement of our laws.

The MOwrystOwn Church Case.

Last week we gave a brief notice of
the finding Of the Circuit Court in refer
ence to the right of title to the Presby-
terian Church property at Mowrystown.
It has been suggested to us that the full
finding of the court might have been
clearer-that is more elaborate. To those
not acquainted with the case perhaps
this is necessary. Briefly stated (for we
must be brief a congregational trouble
arose in the French Presbyterian Church
at Mowrystown over the naming of a
new house of worship erected during
the summer of 1887. The congregation
desired to obtain help in money from
the Board OF Church Erection of the
Presbyterian Church to aid in paying
for the building. But to secure this aid
it became necessary to incorporate the
body, and under corporate name. The
name OF Whiteoak Presbyterian Church
was suggested and selected on account
of former organization of that name
having existed there and three OF the
original trustees of that body in whose
name the title was held being still alive.
After the selection OF the name and the
completion of the articles Of incorpora-
ton set on foot by the French congrega-
ton, nearly all OF the French-speaking
portion OF that congregation became
fearful that they were being outwitted
and refused to enter into the corpora.
ton which they had established. This
refusal of all going into this new corpo-
ration formed two distinct organizations
on the same grounds and each recog.
nized by the Presbytery.
The French believing that they were
the parent organization and possessed Of
all legal rights to the property brought
suit against the trustees OF the new cor
poration for right of title and entire
control of the new building. The case
as has already been said, was decided by
the Circuit Court and sustaining former
decisions ofthe Common Pleas Court that
the right of title was not in the French
organization but in the new corporation
but giving the French people the privil
ege OF using the house one-half OF the
time. This privilege was granted on 6
contract entered into between the
French Church and the trustees of the
old Whiteoak Church in 1859. The time
when each OF the congregations shal
occupy is left to the mutual arrangement
of the officers OF each organization al
was said in last weeks issue, but if they
fail to agree then the court will enter ,
decree specifying the time when eacl
NAV occupy.
