Notes.

There is a lively scrimmage on at
Oakland Parkth afternoon. The foot
bali teams Of the Palma and the Eliza
beth Athletic Club are stxpggling for
goals and honors. The gEeuRd is not in

A little mud will not decer the rivals.
from doing their utmost. Spoiled and
soiied uniforms will not restrain them,
in fact uniforms will be forgotten In the
exciting battle. It Is Palma's first
appearance at home. and they are de-
termiped to make a favorable impression
by earnest, skilfui work, even il sbey Gu
counter defeat. They v a tough eleven

posed OF vigorous veterans who know all
the tricks of the trade. and will take ad-
vantage of every opportunity by scientific
play Co advance the ball coward their
adversary's goal. The Palmas hatuer
themselves thew are strong in tacklin e
and not only believe they eau successfully
resist the attacks of the enemy to break
through the line, but are confident they
will compel them to act on the defensive
from start to finish.
Another big football contest is on this
afternoon. The teams of Yale and Har-
ward are struggling on the latter's field.
Each team was saneuine and it will be
one of the finest battles of the series be-
tween the rival college teams. Yale was
n decided favorite in the betting. 1t is
said this was due TO the fact that the Har-
ward beys were waiting until long odds
were offered and then they intended to
plunge and drive the odds down.

Liszt's First Concert.

The programme of the first concert
ever given by the Able List, in 1920, at
the age Of nine, has recently been di scov-
cred; and 1t has been sent to the musical
exhibition at Vienna. The concert took
place at Oldenburg, the music including
Ries's second pianoforte concerto and an
impromptu fantasia upon a theme fur
nished by of the audience. The pro.
gramme ended with q notable appeal L
the nobility, the military and the esti-
mable public" 1t ran:-'I am Hungarian,
and l do not know a greater happiness
than to offer devotedly to MY dear coun.
try, bsfore my departure for France and
England, the first fruits of my education
aed instruction. That which I lack in
maturity and experience | wish to acquire
by incessant work, which may perhaps
one day procure me the immense pleasure
of figuring among the celebrities OF this
great country" 1t was doubtless partly
owing to this patriotic appeal that direct
ly after the concert several Hungarian
noblemen subscribed the funds necessary
for Liszt's studies for some Years.-Lon-

GOSSIP OF THE CLUBS.
Carteret Club,

The membership of the Carterer Club
is increasing rapidly. A glance at the
roll at the present time reveals the fact
that the shining lights in the social king
dom are members.
The reception room of the club is 30
small that On an occasion of a reception
it is overcrowded. The growing Dopu-
larity Of the club aud its splendid fnan-
cha condition will result, it is said, in the
enlargement Of the clubhouse. Many re-
ceptions will be held there thia winter.
The success of Mrs. E. F.. C. Yeung's
musicale Friday evening will probably
result in another similar entertainment
being given by the club In a little while.
There will be q stag party at the club
tonight. James S. Burdett will enter
tain with Rotations. Next Saturday
evening Frank Paulison will be bhe at
traction. Stays will be held every Satur-
day evening during the winter.
There are four applications for admis-
sien to the club in the hands OF the Mem
bership Committee.

CRUSHED BY A VAN.
Little Louis Faber's Sad
Death on the Noun
tain Road.
THE WHEELS WENT OVER HIM
The Drivers Effort to Save the
Boy Proved Fatal to Him.

Louis Faber, the ele~ven-year-old grand
son of Police Captain Nose Newton, met
with a horrible death yesterday afternoon.
While playing with some companions on
the Mountain Road he was knocked down
by a team Of horses aud the hind wheels
Of a huge furniture a loaded with
furniture passed over his chest. instantly
crushing his life out.
Yesterday afternoon, with several COM
panions, Louis went to the Mountain
Road. This road is an inclined one, lead
from Hoboken to Congress streets. Jersey
City Heights. The road is separated from
the high bluff by a stone wall.
Faber's companions climbed over the
stone wall to the hillside and wsrs soon
youths. The Faber boy did not join
them. His grand father had cautioned
him against fighting with the Hoboken
boys. He stood at the stone wall gazing
over the bluff into Hoboken when a
furniture van came rumbling down the
steep road. The van belonged to a Pat
erson furniture company and was driven
by Abraham Terhune. It was loaded
with furniture and the horses were be-
ing forced down the hill under the great
weight.
The wagon was so close to the stone
wall that young Faber thought he would
be crushed between the yan and the stone
wall. The driver apparently did not see
him.. and the youth made a dash across
the road just as the van was upon him.
A couple OF eye witnesses of the affair
tell she rest. The heard The driver yell
to the boy and apply the brakes attached
to the van. Then they saw Louis GA his
hands aud knees under the van. The
driver. with the best of intentions, pulled
his team to the right frcm the wall, but
it was a fatal move. If he had driven
straight ahead, q human life weuid have
been spared. AS it was. the hipd wheel
swung around and crushed the boy TO the
earth.
The van had attained ouch q Roadway
that 1T proceeded almost q block before it
was stopped. Then George Lesch OF No.
"a Cornelia street caught the team by the
heads.
Louis was tenderly picked up by his
companions. News of the accident spread
quickly, and soon the dead body of the
poor little fellow was surrounded by a
great crowd. A policeman took charge
of the body and had it removed to Cap
tain Newton's home. Terhune, the
driver. was arrested by the Hoboken po-
lice and later turned over to the police of
the Sixth precinct.
This morning Terhune was arraigned
before Justice Davis. Several witnesses
were examined and the story as related
above was brought out. Terhune was re-
manded until Monday morning. The boy
will be buried from the residence of Cap
tain Newton tomorrow.

PRINCETONIANS HAPPY.
The Football Eleven Plays a Fin Prac.

-
Ii Football Eleven Plays a Fine Prac-
tice Game.
The admirers of Princeton's team saw
plenty in yesterdays practice to cheer
their dropping spirits, Some were in
clined to c~riticise Thursdays playing
rather sharply because of several bad
fumbles and a general confusion which
seemed to prevail among the players.
The line yesterday was the amt as
Thursday. except that Randolph Yves put
at1eft end and Taylor at left tackle. Poe
O his regular position at left half
back, and Allen. who has been playing
full back on the scrub team for the past
three weeks. was put at full back,
the ball was put in play by the varsity
team on their f1fteen-yard line. The
scrubs were helpless in the series of bril-
liant plays which from that instant fol-
lowed Il other in quick succession.
Flint wal sent around one end and Poe
around the other, and before the scrubs
could recover from their bewilderment
they were in the centre of the field. Then
followed a series of rushes, another end
run by Flint, and a touch down, gained
over eighty-flve yards of territory. was
scored IN four minutes. Another lineup
followed on the same spot as before. The
ball was again held by the varsity men,
aud then came another series of similar
plays. which resulted in a second touch
down in two minutes.
The next time the ball was in the
hands of the scrubs and the varsity took
the defensive. Although the scrubs had
but fifteen yards to gain to roach the war
sity's goal line their most vigorous eff
forts were of no avail, and they soon
found themselves rushed back to the
twenty-five. yard line, and the ball went
TO the varsity on four downs. Morse was
hurt at this point and retired and Poe
took his place at quarter.
BY the next play the supporting line
ana the spectators were alike surprised.
NO one Knew how it was done, but Like a
flash, Allen went through the
line with the ball, and ac-
companied by his interferer went
sprinting down the field. There was no
one TO oppose the 'varsity's runner but
the full back. He WAS bowIed over with
ease. and a clear field was left, over
which another touch down was won.
tiscns was the principal runner after the
next line up. Several times he was
pushed through the line for gains of ten
and fifteen yards. A driving rain was just
beginning to drive the students to the
grand stand when the signal from Moffat
tola lhem that the practice was over.
wheeler and Romans were both out in
football attire and joined in the sprint
before the game. Romans ran in good
form. twice coming off victorious.
Wheeler showed a little caution in his
running, although his speed was nearly
up to its usual rate,
A large party of students will witness
the Yale-Harvard game today. The gen.
eral Impression is that the game will be
very close, although Yale has the prefer
euce in the minds of most of the under
graduates of Princeton.

NOTES.

The system of c~ar-heating used on the
Erie Railroad, that of taking steam from
the locomotive, has been connected with
The Baker heaters formerly used, so TINT
that the water in the heater is kept hot
by the passage of abe live steam before it
is circulated through the radiators In the
OARS. BY this system anything which
might occur to cut off the supply of steam
from the locomotive Is provided for. In
case OF such occurring, fire is started in
he'll heater, and the already heated water
Is turned into steam and sent through
the ~radiating pipes In the car.
