SpRNGFlELD. Mass, Nov. 24.-All
that the managers Of the Yale and Har.
ward football teams could have asked for
in the way of fexcellcnt weather for their
annual contest on Hampden Park this
afternoon has been granted. With a
cloudless sky, bright sun and the ther.
mometer standing at about 60 the
weather is nearly perfect for football
play.
Small knots of visitors began this
morning to stir before the twinkling
stars were obscured by the approaching
dawn. Hotel accommodations were
scarce and entirely wanting in the CEN
tral part OF the city, and many of the
late arrivals sat wrapped in overcoats
in the lounging rooms of the hotels or in
the railroad station.
The city is in holiday attire, and nearly
every house is profusely decorated with
haring crimson or blue. The setting is
2h to in favor of Yale.
The football game between Brown
and Dartmouth resulted: Brown 20,
Dartmouth 4. Captain Hopkins of
Brown had his collar bone broken.

This was stimulated by seasonahle cold

At the south favorable influence is
moderate advance in the price of cotton.
due to the greater favor with which
lower estimates of the result of the cot

of the opinioa that the price of cotton
is too low. There has been a good de-
mand for spot cotton. Some shippers of

Defeat.
SHANGHAI. Nov. 24.-The japanese
captured Port Arthur Wednesday. The
lighting began on Tuesday.
LONDON, Nov. "a The Central News
correspondent at Shanghai says the fall
Of Port Arthur has created great excite
ment in the native quarter Of Shanghai.
News of the capture of Port Arthur by
the Japanese was brought from Che Foo
yesterday by the British steamer. No
details of the fight have yet been received,
but all accounts agree that the Chinese
fought gallantly and desperately. Some
of the officers and men in the forts re-
fused to surrender and were all cut down
by the Japanese.
The Star publishes dispatch saying
that the Japanese torpedo boats en-
gagged the attention of the forts while
the troops closed around the forts at
the rear. Then the torpedo boats made
sudden concerted dash ard succeeded
in getting inside the harbor The Iapa-
nese artillery in the rear kept up con-
tinuous fire upon the Chinese forts and
infantry and made succession of at
tacks upon the outer dciences. which
they captured.
After the first onslaught by the Japa-
nese the resistance of the Chinese is said
to have been feeble. FINALLY the Chinese
troops became panic stricken and fled.
The real fighting at Port Arthur began
Novemhev 20. in the third pass, the vii
lage of Shuisz Wing having been captured
November 10.
Another dispatch says the British war
ship Porpoise brought news of t he battle
and fall of Port Arthur to Che Foo. The
Shanghai correspondent of the Central
News says it is estimated that Il 900 to
10000 Chinese troops defended Port
Arthur. 1t is supposed two Chinese war
ships are also at Port Arthur.
The foreign officer has received dis.
patch from the British minister at Toxic
confirming the report OF the capture of
Port Arthur. The Globes Shanghai dis
patch SAYS China has sent a special
agent to Japan with instructions to ac-
cept any terms of peace except cession OF
any portion of China proper to Japan

A SUICIDES PREPARATIONS.

She Even Selected the Hymn, to be
sung at Her Funeral.
The Rutherfordton Herald relates this
suicide, remarkable in many ways:
Mis-. Houston, who lives near Colum-
bus, committed suicide on Sunday last
by shooting herself with a 3S calbre pis.
toi. Mrs. II. has been despondent for
some time past, and in making prepara.
tions for taking her own life displayed a
determination and delberateuess which
was indeed remarkable. She left in.
structions for the final disposition
OF her body, selected hymns to be sung
and scripture to be read at the funeral
services, She left several notes to differ.
ent parties and n telegram for her late
husbands brother who lives in Philadel-
phia. She then placed her wearing
apparel which she wished to be buried
in on chair near by where she commit
ted the rash act. She then placed water
and towels to be used in bathing her
after death neart the pallet which she made
down on the floor directly under her late
husbands picture. Calling her servant
she sent her with note to an intimate
friend requesting her to come over and
take dinner with her. Then laying her.
self down upon the pallet. she placed the
pistol to her breast and fired the deadly
shot. the ball piercing the heart.
On arrival of her friend she found her
cold in death, clasping in one hand the
pistol and in the other note to her, re-
questing that she prepare her body for
burial.
Every since Mr.. Houston's husband
died in July last, she has been despond-
ent and expressed a desire to be with
him on the other shore. Her husband
we understand was worth several thous.
and dollars and was engaged in the man.

The Pathology Club Has Its Initial
Meeting And Issues a Call.
A society to be known as the Paidol-
ogy club-or club for the study Of child
nature-has been organized in this city.
1t held its first meeting Yesterday after
noon. at the Rev. X. F. Campbell's study
on Church street. Papers on the need
and purpose of the society were read,
and they we're followed by an animated
and interesting discussion about chill
dren-their health, happiness and pur-
suit of mischief.
As the threatening weather probably
prevented many from attending, who
had been expected, the adoption OF a
constitution, election Of officers. etc.,
were postponed till the next meeting. to
be held Tuesday, November 27, at $50
p. m. at the same place. 1t is
hoped that all women interested in
the moral, mental and physical develop
ment of the children and who wish to
learn Of or from the experiences and
knowledge of Others will meet with the
club at that time.
