Princeton Football Division Dis
turbed Over an Election.
The interest in football affairs at Prince
ton has been intense, as the officers are to be
elected today. Every room has been can
vassed, and even the seniors have been ruth
lessly interrupted in their sac red sports by
the electioneers, and have been compelled to
lay aside their hoops, to stop spinning their
tops, and to leave their games of marbles to
listen to the merits of the respective candi-
dates.
The interest centres chiefly in the Treas
urership. The Presidency is a foregone con-
clusion, for the treasurer of the preceding
wear is always elected to that office. Treas
urer Edward Munn's name is the only name
mentioned to fill J.. Mach. Thompson's posi-
ton. P. W. Miller and C. C. Cuyler of the
graduate Advisory Committee will probably
be reelected, and A. d.. Wilson, 9l,
elected in the place of Max Farrand, re-
signed. These men were in the field for
Treasurer; Arthur Gunster of Scranton, Pa,
II. G. Warning of Yonkers, and A. Il. Mill
bank of New York City, all from the sopho-
more class. Gunster, however, was per-
suaded by Capt. Trenchard n Capt. Nc
Kenzie to get out of the race. Capt. Trench
ard thinks that Gunster has the build for a
varsity quarter back. Capt. Mckenzie had
like hopes for him in baseball lines, too, as
his work at third base last season seems to
point to him as a captain of the team before
he graduates.
Of the two remaining candidates, 81. g.
Warning is popular with the School OF
Science, and is strongly backed by the Ivy
and Colonial clubs, two strong social or
carnations in the college. OF the football
men Wheeler and Lee are his stanchest sup
porters. He is also widely known among the
freshman class, who at present hold the
balance of power in college politics. Mill

THE BOXES EXAMINED.
"One was delivered to the clerk" he went
on, s'by a young boy a wholly irresponsible
person clearly outside the purvue OF the
law. The law says the boxes must be taken
to the township clerk by the judge
"But that amt the box we propose to open,
judge" interrupted Mr.. Storrs, and we will
consider your point when We come to it,"
Very well, y resumed the judge, "not at
all abashed and pointing to the other box,
''this box is covered with the mold OF
suspicion. 1t is under such a faint OF sus-
picion as to make it wholly improper to
open it. Dumb they are it is true, but silent
as they are these boxes are untainted and I'M
vanished with suspicion. What we want is
the unvarnished truth"
He then proceeded to make a great ado
about the fact that the boxes were not
always in the possession of the clerk.
DO 0 mean to say, judge, that the law
does not contemplate a constructive posses

There can be no constructive possession"
replied Mr.. Rankin decisively, and was pro-
ceeding to show why, when the lawyers on
the committee told him in chorus that it had
been so decided, and Chairman Storrs an
nounced that they would go on with the
count.
1t took a long time to open the box; at
which Mr.. Jagard smiled broadly and said
that was the box Judge Rankin was afraid
had been interfered with by his eight-year-
old girl. Nothing fraudulent was found In
the box and the committees recount agreed
in every particular with that of the election
