out as from their hiding places among

So to the artist, stopping for breath and
to wipe the moisture from his face, there
seemed no thing on earth save the little
rock whereon he stood, and in the in

surprising quickness In starting and get

is largely contributed to by his handler

fortunate enough TO have witnessed the
glorious battle between the giants OF the
collegiate football arena.
Thorne's great run through the entire
Princeton team near the conclusion of the
contest was sufficient TO single him out
for distinguishing honors. Wearied and
