Yale had the ball, and without once
losing it. carried it across the line by
successive plunges by Butterworth. aid
ed by the Yale halves. 1t was almost
exactly five minutes after play had been
called for the second half that Butter
worth carried the pigslzin over the line
for touchdown, and Hickok kicked an
easy goal, Yale luck was with the New
Haven team throughout the game, and
good fortune played considerable part
in the contest. When game was called.
the field was swept by gale from the
North, making the choice of sides very
great. When the coin was tossed, Yale
luck came ''heads up" and it did not
take Captain Hinkey long to hand over
the ball to Captain Waters and beckon
his men to the north end of the field. A
burst of applause went up from the
Yale side when the admirers of the blue
saw the crimson criers take their places
facing the wind, which howled down the
field. The luck again turned against
Harvard when Captain Waters, after be-
ing repeatedly injured, was forced to
leave the field. But Harvard made
game fight, and Yale earned her victory.

OF the many attractions outside of

but few in which there is so much
interest conferred as there is in tie
Libby War Museum. In 1889 this cels
brated prison was removed from Rich
mond to Chicago snd converted into
War Museum. The project was under
taken by syndicate of the best known
business men CT the city whose enter
prise was conceived in a commercial
spirit, but has attained national repu-
tation. A project such as this was never
before heard of. To move brick and
stone building the size of Libby more
than e thousand miles, across rivers and
mountains. was an enterprise that many
of the best known contractors IN the
West refused to undertake at any price.
But the move was made with success.
Then the famous old structure was filed
with war material that represents the
war of lifetime and the expenditure
of half a million dollars The great
collection is conceded to be second to
none in the country and include much
of the most valuable material that the
greatest civil war the world has ever
known has left to posterity. The col
lection includes thousands and thous-
ands of relics of every description, many
Of which form important links in the
history of the Nation. The old build
ing itself is fraught with interesting
memories and the story of the celebrat
ed escape Of Feb. 9, 1864, never fails to
interest the visitors. One hundred and
