failed to kick goal. In the second half
four touchdowns We're made and Taylor
kicked two goals. The playing OF half

Comment on the Yacht Rncc.

LONDON. Oct. H.-The Daily Graphic,
commenting the yacht race, says: I'VE
are fairly beaten. Nevertheless, Lord Dun
raven has no cause TO be ashamed of a
yacht that was defeated by so narrow a
margin English builders must try to out
manuever American builders. else some
day an American yacht will come here and
sweep the board"
The Speaker says: 'If the race was
across the Atlantic and in December the
Valkyrie would certainly win. But in light
weather in the Sandy Hook racing season
the odds are heavily against yacht built
to cross the Atlantic. If ever by luck,
rather than by skill, the American cup re-
turns to England, it will not be our fault
if we fail TO keep it"
The Morning Post says that Englishmen
will regret the result but they will find
in the defeat stimulus to further efforts.
Reaching the conclusion of the Speaker.
the Post proposes that the next challenger
for TIE American cup be provided with
centerbOard.

A PITFALL OF BEHAVIOR.

On a recent warm Sunday night a cable
car started up from the Battery loop with
the usual Sunday load OF tired parents,

whose good time was sure to last so long AZ
they were together.
There were seats enough for all except
one young man, whose party OF two pairs
sat down near the door. 1t was the high
spirits of this group, doubtless, that
prompted the suggestion by one of them
that the standing young man should SIT IN
the lap Of his young woman for greater
comfort. This he promptly did, and, not
being repulsed, sat there with great con-
tent to himself.
At Reade street young Irish girl board

She stood at the door minute and looked,
bewilderad, UP and down the filled seats.
Then her eye fell upon young man sitting
at ease in young womans lap She dart
ed forward, and before any one had The
slightest idea of her intention, she seated
herself respectfully but firmly on the lap OK
the other young man.
1t was hard to tell which was the fun

calm of the young woman or the hyster-
zeal laughter OF the colored girl in the cor

tween her peals:

rushed for twenty-five yards into Buffers

bic. A thirty yards run then took Butler
almost to their coveted goal when DePauw
won the ball on four downs, and immedi-
ately, by steady gains, went to within twen-
ty-five yards of the goal. Then right-half-
back Jerry Simpson went around Buffers

their senses and breath he was seen calmly
sitting on the ball behind the cross bar.
