"v" Wedge Mast Co.
The game was made up entirely of kicks
and good straight plays. Harvard only
tried once the fancy side wedge which she
sent bncking against Yale 30 often.
Usually she sent her men for Newton and
Reese, who offered the weakest spot. The
Quakers used their own peculiar style Of
interference, but 1t was easily broken up.
Both sides used the flying wedge to put
the ball In play. The gains made by these
were feature of the game. This "De-
land" wedge evidently has killed the old
time v wedge.
The teams were well matched physi.
cally. perfect giants In size, with the ad-
vantage In favor of the Philadelphians.
The men played q very hard, quick. rushs
ing game, and would have been used up
but for the stops on account Of injuries
giving them breathing space.
Doctors were In frequent demand, and
kept running up continually looking at
some injured man. First Emmons was
dazed and Arthur Brewer took his place.
Then Reese was hurt aud Wharton put In.
Charlie Brewer now fell out OF the lists and
Gray was put In only to give way to Con-
terman. None Of the men were hurt seri-
ously, simply too much knocked out to be
relied upon.

Boston. Dec. There were no serious
injuries at the Harvard Yale football

that great many players have been seri-

college football games, even this very year,
Notwithstanding that rowdyism and bru-

The wide difference Of opinion which
exists as to the merits and demerits of the
game Of football as now developed and
played by collegians leads the undersigned
to request the board OF overseers to cause
full statistics to be gathered and cosap piled,
and a thorough investigation conducted,
so that the appropriate attitude of the
government of our university toward the
game may be wisely determined, 80 that.
II practicable, notifications of the game,
calculated to lessen its dangers, may be
suggested; and SO that parents, aud also
their sons in college or preparing for COL

NEW MILFORD, Conn, Dec la horri-
BILE discovery was made in farmhouse
six miles above here by the neighbors of
Michael Hennessey, an old farmer, who has
long been known as a quarrelsome fellow.
For over week neither Hennessey or his
wife have been seen about the farm, and
the bleating Of the cattle in the barn an
noyed the neighbors so much that yester-
day they visited the premises aud made an
investigation.
They found Hennessey's wife uncon-
scious in a room In the house without any
clothing on. and her body a mass of
burns, the flesh in many places being
rolled up on her body. Her husband was
lying on the floor I'm one of the rooms,
stupid from the effects of drink. Mrs.
Hennessey told the neighbors that her
husband, week ago last Wednesday,
while drunk, took hold of her and dragged
her to the open fireplace and pushed her
in over the blazing logs, setting her cloth
ing afire. He looked on the scene with
great delight while she burned, and
laughed at her agony. He refused to call
In medical assistance afterwards, and the
woman has suffered untold pain for a
week. A physician who attended the
woman yesterday says that gangrene has
set In and she cannot live. Hennessey
has been arrested and he has been threat
ened with violence by the townspeople.
Great excitement prevails over the affair.

HAvsRHILL,s FIREBua.
Starts Two Fires on the Night OF the
Fireman's Annual BalL

Fireman's Annual Hall.
HAvERHILL, Mass, Dec. 1.-Fire last
night destroyed large wooden building
owned by John G. Tilton and occupied by
Simon Miller, junk dealer. The building
Is In the heart Of the shoe district, and il
was only after hard fight that serious
confaRration was prevented. The loss on
the building will be $4,000, and Miller's
loss on stock and two horses will be sl00n.
The alarm was rung in just as the fremen
were preparing to open their annual ball
at city hall. Owing to the dangerous 10.
cality two alarms were sounded.
This was the fifth incendiary attempt to
burn the buildings of A. j. Tilton, and the
police believe that the attempts are the
work of some revengeful enemy of Mr.. Til
ton. Chief Gordon stated to a reporter
that there was no doubt that the work was
OF incendiary origin, and thinks the case
will warrant an investigation, which will
be held. There was no insurance.
Haverhill's incendiary started second
fire at midnight in the barn of Michael
Howard on Maple street, and IL proved to
be full dress affair. The local firemen
were in the midst of dance at the ball at
city hall when the alarm rang In. The fire.
men quickly dropped their lady partners
and made a mad rush for the doors, in
which several persons narrowly escaped In
jury by being thrown down. The fire it
self caused loss Of $780, Several valuable
horses were rescued by the neighbors.

FAMILY REUNITED
William Galway Meets His Wife and
Family After Many Years.

Family After Many Years.
PLAINFIELD, n. Y, Dec. IA story
containing some romantic features has
jtst come to light here. During the civil
war William II. Galloway left his wife
and two children in q small hamlet in
Maryland to enlist as a private in a regi-
ment, beiug mustered In at Baltimore. On
his return, ut the close of the war, he
found that report of his death had long
preceded him, and that his wife, accepting
1t rs true, had removed, no one knew
where, with her two boys.
He began a thorough search for his lost
family, In the belief that one day he
would find them. His long cherished
hope was partially realized on Monday,
while hunting in the woods at South
Plainfield. A young man he had met In
the brush, and to whom he at once took a
liking, proved, on closer acquaintance, one
of the boys he had left In the little hamlet
In Maryland over 25 years ago.
Mr.. Galway ascertained that his wife
and children had moved to Seaferd, Suzzex
county, Del, and had remained there and
prospered through all the intervening
years. His newly found son, " b. Gala
way. is captain of the barge Z. ID. jackson,
plying between Philadelphia and South
Carolina.
The father had settled in South Plain
field. but accompanied his son home for a
happy reunion with his wife and children
on this Thanksgiving day.

The punishment for Devery's offence Is
one years Imprisonment or a fine Of $500,
or both. But that is the least part of the
consideration. The conviction of the cap
tain on any of the four counts would be a
death blow at vast political system that
feeds on crime.
On Nov. 10 last DR.. Parkhurst's Society
of the Prevention of Crime secured the
conviction and punishment of four women
for keeping disorderly houses IN the
Eleventh precint, over which Captain
Devery has Command In each of these
cases the captain had been previously in
formed Of the criminal work carried on in
the houses.
When the court Of special sessions con-
victed the wo men. ii was logical result
that the grand jury would be anxious to
know why Captain Devery failed To act
when requested to by the society for the
prevention Of crime DIR. Parkhurst and
his society supplied the grand jury wi tn
evidence enough to reveal the situation,
and four indictments were inevitab lie.

was little noticed before thu war, but
during the war 1t extended north aud west
and has since spread rapidly over aban-
dOned fields, along roadSides. and IN open
woods, and now furnishes thousands OF
acres of excellent grazing IN every one OF
the Gulf States, and Is still spreading
northward in Kentucky and Virginia, and
westward III Texas, Indian Territory, and
Arkansas. 1t is an annual and furnishes
pasture only during summer and until
killed by frost in the fail. The small
purplsh blossoms are produced slngly IN
the axis between the Leaf and stem, and
the seeds ripen few at O time from about
the list of August until the close of the
season. 1t reproduces itself from seed on
the same ground year after year, and on
this account has been enormously called
perennial.
