composed of young business men, there was
a lack of practice that failed to put the
teams on par with those of the larger col
legeA The material was good enough,
probably better than is to be found in the
majority of college elevens, but without the
constant practice which gives perfection to
team work, their weakness in anything but
rush line work precluded the possibility of
gaining victory over such fully trained
men as were sent here by Le-
high. 1t is proposed to alter this
state of affairs next season. The P A.
c., especially, has in view the formation
of football eleven which shall practice as
frequently as the college organizations.
Already a partial list OF stars who are to be
on the team is in the hands of Manager
Barbour whose idea is to keep the team
busy with several games a week during the
season. Some of those who have played
brilliantly this year have announced that
they will give way to others next season,
but wnen the fall of the year approaches
they will be found in tine ranks again. The
game has fascination for the players as
well as the people.
As whole Pittsburg has every reason to
feel satisfied with the records of her teams
this year. They have had an opportunity
of seeing how well each of them could hold
down the scores of college trained
men. and there has been just about
enough of the sport provided to keep
the interest in the game at an even point
The record of the A. A. AS in making q
tie game with the Columbia A. c. team and
in defeating the Cleveland A. G. eleven
away from home shows that star players
without the necessary practice can hold
their own against better training. The
mooted question as to which of the two
teams, the A. A. A. or the P. A. c.. is the
better, is still unsettled, and it is probable
that it will come to the front again next
year, when it is to be hoped that there will
be no ringers on either side. The P. A. C's
record is also one which has attracted wide
spreai attention. 1t lined up against two
of the strongest college teams in the State
teams that have had battles with the Uni

ANOTHER GREAT CURE.

The Case of MIR. William Foster, of Butler

The Wind Up Of lively and EIcit-

WINTER SPORT PREPARATIONS.
Athletic Association Men in Training for
Coming Events.
GOSSIP FOUND IN VARIOUS FIELDS

For 60 days the fever of football has been
upon the people, not only of Pittsburg but
of the entire United States. Scarcely
hamlet from the Atlantic to the Pacific has
escaped untouched by the contagion. From
the far West to the Eastern confines of the
continent the supremacy of the game has
been undisputed. It has reigned supreme,
and from an event in which only q few
college boys were interested the sport has
grown into one which is attractive to thou
sands in every community large enough to
support one or two elevena When the
rapid growth from comparative obscurity
is considered, the average man is at loss
to know where and when the swelling tide
of popularity will end. Certainly not next
year in this part of the world, for prepara-
tions are already on foot for the formation
of better teams and more of them. And
not only is this the case here, but in every
locality.
Pittsburg has had two excellent teams
this year-teams with which few athletic
association elevens could compete success
fully. But. as in the case of all elevens

tercollegiate league. In both cases the COL
lege elevens were disappointed. They ex-
pected to roll up big score, but instead
the points were kept down to 16 and 81, and
these we're only secured BY the superiority
OF team korK gained by constant practice.
Next year the college teams will be given
a closer Fub, aud if Manager Barbour's
ideas are carried out the scores will be on
the other side.
Of the light weight teams the P. A. q
seconds and the Holy Ghost College finished
with the best records. Neither suffered a
defea: and they wound up the season with
tie game. Most of the light weight
elevens started in too late in the fall, but in
every case there has been an expressed de-
termination to begin at least 80 days sooner
next fall. Williamsburg A. A., the Shady
side Academy kiskiminetas, Grafton A.
A, and other light weights have made good
records. The Central High School team has
perhaps played more actively than any
other of its class, and it has done some ex-
cellent work until the last. Later on sew.

NOW that football is over. the athlet,c


associations will turn their attention to
their winter evenings sport. The A. A. A. s
have in view an indoor meeting which will,
it is asserted, be the forerunner of several
of similar nature to be given before the
annual spring meet The stars of the asso-
citation in their various lines are keeping in
good trim, and they expect to lower their
records in the first open-air meet.
The winter classes at the P. A. G. gym
nasium have been we'll attended, and Prof.
Kirchner has his hands full in directing the
training. More than 500 members are now
paying their dues and the sinking fund has
about So, 900 TO its credit. 1t is beginning
to be apparent that the present gymnasium
is not large enough for such an association
as the P. A. c., and movement is on foot
to build during the year more commodious
quarters The financial standing of the P.
A. G. is of the very best, and as it numbers
in its membership some of the wealthy men
of this city, the new gymnasium will prob
ably be one Of the most complete of its
kind in the State. HORACE j. HILL.

Finger Tip Evidence.

Further evidence as TO the reliability
of finger tip impressions for indicating
character or establishing indentity, a
subject that has of late attracted great
deal of attention, has been compiled and
published by DIR. d'Abundo. After ex-
aiming the fingers of seven idiots he
found that the markings on the tips of
oil the fingers on each hand were identi-
cal, thus showing marked difference
between those of idiots and of sane
people. The thumb tips of one idiot
had the same markings as those of his
fingers. There was noticeable smooth
ness of finger tips in all idiots. In one
case there was perfect resemblance be-
tween the markings on the fingers of an
idiot and OH those of his mother. Out Of
twenty cases of imbecility, in four only
was one sort of tracing found on oil the
fingers, in the remaining sixteen u ten
dency to repetition asserting itself to u
considerable extent. In hemiplegia,
when the lesion was of old standing, u
distinct smoothness of the finger tips
was noticed, which prevented the obtain
ing OF good impressions. A prominent
medical authority is of the opinion that,
from a medico-legal point of view, these
researches may ultimately have an i'm
portant bearing on crimes of a sanguin-
airy nature. For instance, If drawings
we're taken of the impression of hand
bathed in blood the markings would be
most clear, more especially if the GRIM
inal had not merely laid his hand on any
papers, but had actually fingered them.
The evidence of crime would be still more
valuable if the criminal had any peculiar
ity of finger tip impressions.--lCourier

Prehistoric Canals.

Prehistoric irrigation canals in Ari-
IONA are really worthy of more notice
than is usually given them. The Salt
and ella River valleys are intcrsected
by vast network of these canals, which
antedate, at least, the arrival of Coro-
nado in 1862, for he mentions these
ruins and the traditions of the Indians
regarding a once dense population in
this region. Modern engineers cannot
improve upon the lines of these canals,
nor in the selection of points of diver
sion from the rivers. The first irriga-
ton canal in this section, the one that
has made Phoenix, with its present popu-
lution of 10000, simply followed the
lines of one of these old canals.
Their extent may be appreciated when
il is said that in the Salt River Valley
alone the land covered by these canals
once aggregated over 250, 900 acres, and
the canals themselves, with their laterals,
must have exceeded 1000 miles in
length. This country is filled with pre-
historic ruins, with walls of stone or
adobe, and almost every acre contains
fragments of pottery, shell ornaments,
stone implements and other remains of q
population which can only be estimated
in its aggregate.-[Engineering News.

to be married TO Miss Della Nicholson, an
attractive young lady OF the same county.
Miss Delia's parents objected to the mar

cured a rope and proceeded to the woods
near her home and hanged herself TO a

his sweetheart's untimely death, at once
took dose of arsenic, from which he soon
died. The bodies of both unfortunates
were buried together.
