on the Gridiron.

New York, Oct. 4.-According to excel
lent authority, the negotiations for foot
ball game this year between Yale and Har-
ward have reached this stage:
Harvard is Willing TO play game on col
lege grounds, providing Yale will issue an
ordinary challenge. All other conditions,
such as an apology by Harvard for certain
criticisms of HirIkey's playing at Springfield
last year, must be dropped This is the ulti-
matum, it is said, OF the Harvard foot
ball authorities, and it remains for Yale TO
cast aside scruples and issue challenge.
1t is also reported that Ha rvard favors the
grounds of Brown University ut Providence.
but there may be a hitch, as Yale wants to
play 1t Springfield or not at all. II Yale
does not come to time with a challenge the
New Haven men will not be regarded as
anxious to meet the strong team that will
undoubtedly wear the crimson this fan.

tract with the club for another year. he had
drawn up IA contract, by which Irwin would
be obliged to enforce discipline.

FIFTY SEVEN YEARS ASLAVE
Morgan Jones Is Now a BoOtblack in
the Streets of Minneapolis
From the NJ iupel DoiiS Penny Press


the Streets of Minnea polls
From the NJ Minueapolis Penny Press.
Morgan Jones, a colOred man, ninety
years of age and fifty-seven years u slave,
is among the applicants for the boot
blacks stand of the new court house.
When Morgan was born he discovered
himself located upon the Chapel planta-
ton, in Halifax county, Va. near the North
Carolina line. This memorable event in his
existence occurred August 10, 1905. lie
grew fast-a habit for the southern
picaninny-and before many years was tod
ing beside his nIammy in The field. His
father and mother died. but the sou toilcd
on in the slavery To which he was born
until he had reached the mature age OF
tifty-seven. Up TO this time he had never
been ten miles from the spot upon which
he was born. His career had little III it
of an exciting character, aside FROM The
sunday trips TO a village near by where
the frisky element soJuurued to procure
whisky that could be obtained for % cents
per gallon. But NJ organ was as frisky
as any of them. according TO his story, told
uot boastiDgly atan.
Il was godlemity good man, when was
young" said Morgan, and judging; from the
number of his victories in contests where
Marquis of Queensbury rules were unknown,
il il safe to believe him. A source of pride
to Morgan in his old age is the remembrance
that his mother was once offered 81 100 for
him.
The great change in 'uncle's" life took
place in 1862. when Gen. Sigels soldiers
came and set him free with others. The
happy colored folks Were taken TO St Louis
and 500 of them placed on board a steamer
bound for the north in charge OF Capt
Sawyer and his company ofmiiitia. Morgan
did not leave the boat as others did, untii
its most northerly point was reached, for
he figured that the farther from the South
he got the safer he would be. In the spring
of 1S6 he walked into the village OF St An
thony and before long went to work for n
Mr. Chambers, who had q farm ut Lake
Calhoun. He afterward worked at Richiird
on the farm of James Bull. The latter is
alive to-day and when at the court houee
has friendly chats with uncle"
The latter, at the end of life, has never
been outside of the State line, and seldom
outside of Minneapolis. Uncle" is poor IN
property, and slightly bent under the weight
Af years. He may be seen shuffiing along
toward the old court house any morning
with a little basket of fruit on his arm He
has a backing stand in the basement and
gathers few dimes by his labors each day.
Uncle" makes friends with all he meets
and there are none who do not with lin
success in the first appointment of his long
life.

preparation of certain sum every year

the movement are A. C. Wilson. of Cumbcr-
land, president of the League of American
Wheelnien, and Howard Williams, presi-
dent of the Maryland Bicycle Club. Both
are well known throughout the State, and
will be able, it is believed, to bring con-
siderable influence to bear ON the law
makers when they get together.
This Will be good news to Washington
Wheelmcn. Montgomery County, Maryland,
is invaded every now and then by riding
parties from this city. who would welcome
an Improvement of the highways there with
delight. Prince Georges County, Mary
