From Western Maryland College.

| WESTMINSTER October l6.-The Western
| Maryland Foot Ball Team was defeated in
their first game by the Maryland Agricultural
College Team on the grounds of the latter by
brutality, and the Western Maryland boys
were well used up. John Bosley, quarter
back, had the large boue broken in his leg
between the kneo and the ankle; n. o.
| Gibson, left tackle, had his nose knocked
out of place, and Charles Zepp, right tackle
had his finger dislocated. One of the Mary
| land Agricultural boys was injured SO badly
| that he was carried from the field. The great
question we should consider is, is this kind of
| sport right. Last year eight men lost their
lives on the foot ball field and one in the
pugiistic field. The former is considered a
sport-the latter crime The divine law
says s'We shall not kill, and ''he will not be
held guiltless who takes his brothers. life."
They have no regard for life in foot ball. If
they find in their opponents strong man, the
whole eleven will play against that man, until
they injure him so that he has to be tax en-
from the field. They will do this if they have
| to kill nim. Such things should be classed as
crimes, and how Christian colleges can en-
courage it, is mystery. 1t is the violation
of Gods law. The violation of Gods law is
sin. 1.-The wages of sin is DEATH We hope
| there will be a law passed in the near future
condemning and prohibiting in its fullness all
foot ball playing.
The college was lighted by electricity on
Monday night for the first time. 1t is prov
| ing quite success and adds much to the COM
fort and pleasure of the students The town
has not been lighted yet, but will be in a few
days. The men are now stretching the wires

noon, October IA, 1894. Mr.. Whaley was
| about twenty-five years old, and was a son of
Mr.. Seth NJ. Whaley, of Whaleysville, Md.
| He was elected last June to the chair of Orien-
| tai Literature in this college. The last two
| years of his life were spent in graduate work
| in the department of Hebrew at the University
| of Chicago. He was Il graduate from this
| college in 81, with the degrees of A. M, b.
| D. Mr.. Whaley had been in bad health for
some time, but last summer was much i'm
proved, and thought he would be able to fill
the chair he was called to. He had his trunk
| and books sent here, and his rooms were
| made ready for him, and we were all looking
with pleasure to his coming. But gloom
was cast over the entire school when his death
was announced. His body was brought here
| this morning from Baltimore on the 9 40 train,
and borne to the NJ. z. Church, where the fun
| eral services were conducted. X.
