PECULIAR RUNNING MATCH.
Another Proposed Contest Be-
tween Harvard and Yale.


NEW YORK, Dec. 10.-A peculiar
meeting is being arranged between
Yale and Harvard. Yale was invited
to compete against Harvard at the an
nuaI indoor winter meeting of the Bos-
ton Athletic association in team race
of a mile, both teams to consist of four
men, each of whom will relieve his
predecessor after quarter of a mile.
Harvard has agreed to enter team in
case Yale declines. The managers of
the Yale team received the proposition
faVorably, but were reluctant about
giving definite answer, fearing that
the Harvard men have been training
for the event. while only short time
remains for the Yale men to get in con-
ditlon. Capt. Jones, of the Yale team,
will give his ultimatum in few days.
He says, however, that he Is anxious
to accept the challenge.

while occasionally tho muscles OF the

HOW A oNE-ARMED MAN GOT A JOB.
Forged Chief Jones' Voice Over the Tele-
phone for Recommendation

Forged Chief Jones' Voice Over the Tele-
phone for Recommendation.
Chief Jones, of the Allegheny Fire De-
partment, was annoyed yesterday by the
calls of number of prominent merchants,
who wished to know why he had sent one
armed man to them for employment The
Chief denied knowledge of the matter. but
easily learned after few calls had been re-
ceived where the complaints originated
The one-armed mans scheme had been to
secure telephone, call up a prominent
merchant and, using the name of Chief
Jones state that as q personal favor he
wished they would give employment to a
man who would call on them in a short
time. The impostor would then call on the
merchant to whom he had telephoned, but
his appearance was unprepossessing and the
fact of his having only one arm caused sew
eral merchants to feel irritated at being re-
quested to give such a man work. Chief
Jones explained and will endeavor to-day
to find the man who impersonated him 1t
is understood the deception was successful
in one case and that the man was given a
position by friend of the Chief.
