Harvard Beaten by Subs.

Boston, Oct 2S.-The Harvard var
sity team was roundly thrashed this
afternoon by eleven lusty graduates,
who scored eight points against their
opponents five. The graduates We're
individually very strong, especially at
the ends and tackles. At least four of
their number-Waters, Newell, Brewer
and Doucette-were perfectly CONVEX
SAINT with the signals and plays.
Another fact which should dull the
edge of criticism of the varsity play
was that they were In pretty crippled
condition at the very start, while early
In the play Brown, Dunlop and Merri-
man were disabled. But all this falls
far short of excusing the slovenly game
put up by the varsity eleven.

PROBABLY MORPHINE
Caused the Death of G. #. McCann In the
Hotel Reynolds, Boston.

Boston, Oct. 2S.-Charles C. Mccain
of 10i East Sixteenth street, New York,
was found dead in bed in room No. 81,
Hotel Reynolds, about o'clock this
afternoon. He registered about IL
o'clock Tuesday night as C. T. Mccain,
New York, and was not seen again un-
til the chambermaid entered the room
late this afternoon and found him dead.
From the condition of the body when
found it is probable death was caused
by an overdose of morphine or some
other narcotic, but this is not positively
known. An autopsy will be held. Med
ical Examiner Draper will probably
make a postmortem tomorrow. Nc
Cam was about thirty three years old.
A card giving his name and address
was found in one of his pockets.

Amherst Lowers wesIeyan,s colors.

Amherst Mass, Oct. 2S.8--Anrherst
defeated Wesleyan this afternoon to
in the fiercest game of football ever
seen on Pratt field. Slugger Mason,
Wesleyan's coach, infused his prowess
into them, and they were out for
blood. Their double pass was effec-
tive, going around the ends continually.
In the first half the ball was in AM
hert's territory until Townsend made a
touchdown through the center, after
ten minutes play. Raymond failed to
kick goal. Amherst came within five
yards of scoring, by recovering the ball
on Wesleyan's pass, but Wesleyan held.
In the second half two kicks by Tyler
and a tumble by Wade brought the
ball to Wesleyan's twenty-yard line.
Then Gibbs dashed through the left
side of the line and scored touch
down. The Amherst men went Wild
Tyler kicked goal. Amherst played
hercely after this, but could not score
again. The ball was on Wesleyan's
twenty-yard line when time was called.
Townsend, Rymer and the Young twins
played perfect game for Wesleyan.
Tyler Sands and Boyden were AM
hert's invincible trio. Captain Ryan
and Coach Street of Williams watched
the game from the side lines.

KILLED Ar CEDAR HILL YARD.
william Tooney Struck by an Engine With
Fatal Results.

a home in Perth Amboy, N. j., was
killed at the Cedar Hill yards last eve
ming about 10 o'clock by shifting en-

Dartmouth Defeats Bowdoip.

Hanover, N. H., Oct. 2S.-Dartmouth
played her first home football game this
afternoon with Bowdoin, and won in a
hard fought contest, rs to TO- The
playing clearly demonstrated Dart
mouths weakness. Bowdoin made re-
peated gains through the tackles and
on a criss-cross play made forty five
yards and a touchdown. Captain Nc
Cornack played quarter during the first
half and got considerable team work
out of his men, Dartmouth running up
eighteen points. With Mccormack and
Eckstrom out in the second, the Dart
mouth men allowed Bowdoin to score
two touchdowns and Dartmouth got
two. Comparing the teams of this
and last season, Bowdoin is much
stronger and Dartmouth weaker. The
home team is especially weak on the
offensive and must wonderfully i'm
prove if they win the tri-college series.

Philadelphia, Oct. 2S.-Pennsylvania
defeated the Browns this afternoon 16
to 0. The New Englanders opened up
with rush and for time it looked as
If they would carry the ball over for a
touchdown by the rapidity and spirit
of their play. They carried the pigskin
inside of Pennsylvania twenty five
yard line by sharp running and fumb-
ling behind the Quaker line. Twice the
Pennsylvania had kicks blocked on
their twenty-yard line, and once Morice
made fiuke kick. The Browns got as
far as the Quakers' f1fteen-yard line,
but here they stopped and the tide
turned For the first ten minutes the
Quakers played a. spiritless game, and
only opposed a half-hearted defence to
the Browns rush.
With the ball on their fifteen-yard
line and the encouraging shouts of 1900
of their fellows ringing in their ears,
the Pennsylvania braced up and from
that moment the Browns We're never in
the game. Fine runs by Colbert, Nor
ice and Mindes around the ends and
line bucking by Wharton and Farrar
carried the bali up to the Browns goal
and Colbert went through left tackle
for touchdown. Woodruff kicked the
goal and no more scoring resulted in
this half
In the second half the Pennsylvania
had the Browns on the defence the en-
tire time. Morice, by run of thirty
yards around the Browns right end,
scored touchdown and Farrar plung-
ed through the right side of the line for
fifteen yards of another. In one of the
touchdowns only was a goal kicked
For the Browns Wheeler played a fine
game at guard, and Gultz, Cannon
Collins and Hall did good work, bar
ring their weakness at catching punts
While the Pennsylvania play was
far superior to their work against La
fayette, there was still fatal tendency
to tumble and slowness in putting the
ball in play Woodruff went back to
his place as guard from full-back and
Morice went on at full-back Fortes-
cue, one of the scrubs, played quarter
and did the best work of the season for
the Pennsylvania in that position. The
change strengthened the team

Hartford, Oct. 2s.-Trinity defeated
Tufts to-day by a score of 16 to 2.
Trinity fumbled necessarily and play
ed a loose game on the defensive In
the offensive Trinity was very strong,
and the interference showed good
coaching. Tufts outplayed the local
eleven in the first half, but in the Sec
ond half Trinity braced up and played
with vim and snap. Tufts had parti-
cularly heavy team, but did not play
fast ball.
