The strength Of the team behind the
line was increased by the temperance
of Reiter at half-back. An injured side
has kept him out Of the game for three
weeks. At the time OF his accident he
was considered one of the best Princeton
half-backs, and IT, with the short time

Yesterday was effective. the interference

Armstrong did fine work in running with

was strong defensively. no kicks being

The Next Government.

Speculation is already rife as TO
the composition Of the Tory.U nionise
administration which, if it comes in.
to power, will probably outlast the
century. The chief question of in
terest turns upon the distribution of
Office between the Tories and Liberal
Unionists. Lord Salisbury once of.
fered the Premiership to the Duke
of Devonshire. but he was then Lord
Harrington, and in the House OF
Commons. It is not very probable
that the Duke will receive = second
offer Of the Premiership. At the
same time it is regarded as natural.
right and proper that in the next To.
ry cabinet the Duke of Devonshire,
Mr.. Chamberlain and Sir Henry
James should reinforce Mr.. Goschen,
who will no longer be the solitary
unionist in the administration.
Some profess to believe that Lord
Salisbury will be content to 60 to the
foreign Office, and allow his nephew,
Mr.. Balfour, to be both leader Of the
House Of Commons and prime minis.
ter Of the crown. That speculation
may be ingenious, but is not very
probable. There are many advan-
tages in having a prime minister in
the House of Lords, even when the
Liberals are in Office; but it would
seem the natural and inevitable thing
under a government which would
only come into office as a result of a
direct popular vote in favor of the
predominance of the second cham

( The Sunday school of the Congre.
gAtional church has arranged for q
Christmas entertainment to be held
Monday evening, Dec. "a. A fine
program, consisting of a cantata and
exercises appropriate for the occa-
sion, has been arranged. A real fire.
place will be an attractive feature,
to say nothing of music, etc. The
program will necessitate some hard
work and we ask that all parents aid
us by seeing that their children at.
tend punctually at call of committee.
An entertainment will be given on
the evening of Dec. II to raise funds
toward d~efraying Christmas expenses,
a full notice of which will be given
later.
