THE FOOTBALL MEN ARE DEFIANT

New YosaS Policemen VIII lie ON the Groune

taIity-The Betting Is 2 to 1 In Yalet
Favor-Au Ready For the Big Contest.
NEW YoEK, Dec. 1.-The football teams
of Yale and Princeton are to meet this
afternoon in n grand contest which will
probably wind up tho season. Probably
the desire to see the game was mover more
universal in this city. and It is expected
that at least 80, 600 persons will succeed
in getting n view of tho gridiron.
Both tho Yale and Harvard teams have
been in town since last night, and the
crowds at tho hotels and In the streets
are beginning to show their colors.
The startling announcement has been
made that Superintendent of Police
Thomas Byrnes has decided to interest
himself in tho game this afternoon and
would Interfere and stop the game in the
event of its developing into smuggling
contest
This anrsancemcnt, coming as It does
on the eve of the great battle. Is sure TO
have its effect upon the players and will
also tend to- mako tho game moro inter
estIng.
superintendent ByrneJ says that the
game has received too much prominence
mainly through the injuries to players
while playing in a game and that public
npiniun has stamped the game merely as
n brutal show. lie will tolerate no un-
necessary rOughncss, he says. and. no
matter whether tho game has just COM
menced or is drawing near the end, no
will put n stop to 1t ut the first provoca-
ton
In speaking OF the matter the superin-
tcndent said: There will 10 no interior
ence under ordinary circumstances But
II the game deScncratcs into n mere trial
OF strength and proves brutal then it will
be stopped.

The skin Of the tomato is very tough
and disagreeable, and its presence in a
tomato salad is a decided drawback to
that dainty dish. The ordinary process
Of peeling is, however, accompanied
with much difficulty, so that it may be
Of much interest to our readers 10 know
better method. 1t is this: Drop the
tomatoes into boiling water, remove
after a few seconds immersion and the
skin will come of without any trouble
whatever. The reason Of. this of course
is that the heat of the water acts on the
skin and causes it to expand before it
has time to affect the fruit itself; hence
the skin becomes detached and can be
peeled off without great difficulty
