plays. Sheldon broke through the varsity
line and blocked q punt. and Whitcomb
rushed the ball over the varsity line. Cap
tain Thorne played brilliant game behind
feline. and received considera bic applause.
Jerrems sprained his weak knee again,
and had TO retire from the game. 1t is
feared that his injury will unfit him for the
Princeton game and compel the coaches To
put Letton In at full back. W. X. Cross
played right guard again.
The varsity line still showed great signs
of weakness, and several times big gains
were made through the line by the college
eleven. Hammond was especially effect
i've in finding holes. and worried Captain
Thorne's men "a great deal. The coaches
have certainly not as yet found the real
trouble in the line, and the students are
becoming more and more worried over the
outlook for defeating Princeton. The game
with the Orange Athletic Club in New York
on Saturday is certainly to be a hard one,
and Yale will have 10 do her best TO keep
from being defeated. She is afraid of some
accident that may lay up some of her best
men, and almost wishes that the game was
not scheduled.

members of the Harvard team are badly
overtrained. Cabot Is Il candidate for
the hospital. He has been overworked and
is on the verge Of Il collapse.
Hallowell, Frank Shaw, Donald and
Charlie Brewer are also in poor condition.

A. A. Rice will play left tackle. and
either Hayes or HanileD will play half
back. 1t is probable that Cabot. too,
will be laid off. In that case Moulton will
play left end.
Harvard will have a tough game with the
B. A. A., and in the betting the latter is the
favorite. Harvard is in poor physical condi-
ton to meet such strong players. and the
chances are more than even that the
Crimson will be defeated. The B. A. A.

WHY THE EARTH GOES SLow.-The
explanation of Lord Kelvin's estimate
that the setback" of the earth in its
daily rotation round its axis amounts
to twenty-five seconds per century, is
reported to be that such retardation is
owing to the friction caused by the
tides, the latter acting as brake, and
such action is calculated, according to
this same authority, to be equal in
weight to some 100000 tons applied on
the equator. Other causes, he says,
have also to be taken into account, as,
for example, the Increase in the size of
the earth, due to the falling on it of
meteoric dust, which, if deposited ct
the rate of one foot in 1000 years,
would produce the observed retarda-
ton by itself. Further, such phe-
nomenon as the annual growth and
melting of snow and ice at the poles,
by abstracting water from the other
parts of the ocean, introduces irregu-
larities ihto the problem. the abstrac-
ton accelera!ing the earth's motion,
and the melting, by restoring the wa
ter, retarding it. Again, as opposed to
the retarding forces, it is urged that
there is to be taken into account q
probable acceleration, due to the grad
ual sinking of the earth by cooling
| this, however, being not more, perhaps;
than one six-thousandth part of the re-
tardation due to tidal friction.-NeU
| York Sun.

The grand ball which was to hs

The grand ball which was to have
been given Thursday night, at New
port, but which was postponed owing
to Mr.. Belmont's sudden illness, took
place last night at his magnificent es-
tate, Belcourt. The princely combina
ton barn and dancing hall was trans
formed to 9 beautiful scene of activity.
The ball room, which is just over the
carriage house, is finished in cream
tints of the most delicate decorations.
The entrance is extremely novel ana
picturesque, for on either side of the
doorway, leading from the corridor,
are silent warriors in their coats of mail
on horseback. Two armored knights
guard the hearthstone on the opposite
side of the room, and along the outer
wall ten knights in armor stand In
stately splendor. In the balcony above
the gallery is the famous organ, which
cost so many thousands of dollars. The
decorations last night for the splendid
ball were exceedingly beautiful. Mr..
Grafton Cushing led to cotillion, which
was danced shortly before midnight.
The favors were decidedly unique
and graceful, and were distributed be-
tween each figure to the dancers. The
bellies received rough white and red
silk mouchoir cases. and miniature
horse blankets, which had upon them
the Belmont crest in maroon, the Bel
mont color. There were also diminu-
tive four-in-hand whips, silver mount
ed, which form silver lead pencil
when the knob is unscrewed. There
were also horses's hoofs, dogs and
osher sportive emblems in good.sized
bronze ornaments, brought from vi
emma, as well as tortoise shell note
books with long silver chains and pen
ellis, empire fans, and all sorts of ex.
quisite and dainty trinkets, which will
long be cherished by the Newport
bellies as choice souvenirs.
The grand corridor with piazza run
ming full length, was devoted last night
to the rest in between whiles, and in
cidentally to the summer hirtations.
The corridor and reception room
are done in walnut, and the handsome
supper was served IN an oval green
and white dining room, of which the
windows are of fine a'hedral glass.
Mr.. and Mrs. S. S. Rowland, Mrs.
Brice and the Misses Brice were among
the prominent guests at the ball.
