THE CRIMSON WAVES TRIUMPHANT
harvard's Great Eleven the Winners
In the Football Contest.
Bowdoin Players Badly Beat Picked
Men from the Hub.
Walking at RockIand-EquIne High
Jumping Record Broken.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, November 22.-The
this afternoon by a score of II to 6, in one of
the most brilliant games in the history of
foot ball. Both teams PLACED like clockwork
and for the first half neither half was able
to score, though Yale was the aggressor
throughout, with strong wind in her favor.
In the second half, when the teams changed
sides, Harvard forced the fighting, winning
her two touchdowns by Lake and Dean in
the first part of it. The Yale men fought
like fends the rest of the time, but the Grim
sons dogged defence held them down to one
touchdown, scored by McClung, This part
of the game was by far the most brilliant of
the day. The feature of the game was the
frequent puntlDg by the backs, that of b.
Trafford being much more effective than the
attempts of b. Morrison and McClung, and
lnueeu the saving element of the Harvard
defence. 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. Fifteen thousand people were on the
park, most of them being brought In by
many long sDecial trains from New York
and Boston. Yale and Harvard cheers were
Kept up without cessation from start to flu
lsh, ana the enthusiasm when Harvard
scored the first touchdown was something
unheard of. The Cambridge men hugged
each other Unfortunately, and men and
women jumped up and down upon the seats
until the safety of the temporary grand
stand was seriously imperilled. Even the
10 policemen were embraced and had their
helmets smashed in the delirium of the mo-
ment, and the whole performance was re-
peated when the second touchdown came,
for then the victory was clinched. The
Yale touchdown brought cheering, but noth-
ing like this. The Harvard boys marched
through the streets rejoicing, and red fire
blazed from the top of the grand stand at
the very instant time was called. The gold
en- sunset had faded away Just before the
end of the game, which was finished by
bright moonlight; numerous delays and the
taking out of time having protracted the
last half alone to 20 minutes. The referee
and umpire were Messrs. George and Irvine
of Princeton and play was watched with
unusual severity, the slightest illegalities bt-
ing noticed and punished. On this score,
Yale Jared rather worse than Harvard.

dition, and the outlook very good The pas

extent, to the Eastern Shore railroad. which
Is Its great feeder. The freight business is
very promising. A number of minor iID-
provements were talked Of, but no action
was taken. The directors we're very much
pleased with the management OF the road by
Mr.. COombs, who has been but one year in
office. After the meeting the stockholders

A DANCE OF DEATH.
Indians Plot to Lure troopers To a
Deadly Ambush

OMAHA, Neb., November 23.-A Bee spe-
cial from Pine Ridge agency says: The
first knowledge that the ghost dancers had
commenced plotting to entrap the soldiers
was brought to Indian Agent Roger last
night by VIM. ID. McGaa. formerly an Indian
scout, now wealthy ranchman living in the
vicinity of Buffalo Gap. McGaa was travel
ling overland on horse back He enjoys
wide friendship among the Indians, and last
night stayed at one of the lodges about mid.
way between this point and Buffalo Gap. He
had placed very little dependence in the re-
ported scare, and felt no-fear in going to
sleep In a tepee full of indians, n0tvith-
standing that he noticed they were all fully
armed. He feigDed sleep, and heard the-In-
dians plot to lead Gen. Brooke and his
soldiers into ambush and shoot them down
Their plan is to continue the ghost dance
till the troops try to stop 1t. The place
selected to carry cut the murderous design
Is 16 miles north of here, where the White
river empties into the Wounded Knee. The
only practical way leading to the stop is by
a road that follows along the bank of the
White Horse CREEK Upoa either side of
this road and creek are dense clumps of trees.
which almost form wall on either side of the
approach. The plot is to have the ghost
dance In the centre of the amphitheatre, and
have the woods on either side of the road
full of Indians. When the military came up
to stop the dance they would be easily shot
down by the Indians in ambush,
