PRINCETON TOO STRONG.
Harvard Suffers a Shut Out After Being
 in Sight of Goal

Harvard Suffers a Shut Out After Being
 in Sight of Goal.
 Boston, Mass, Nov. 7.-Princeton de- feated Harvard this afternoon by a score of 12 to 0, the story of the game being the record of crippled eleven fighting desperately, but in vain, against oppon- ents in good condition The day was perfect, there was little or no wind and an attendance of about 20000.
 In the first half neither side scored Princeton directed her mass players against Harvard's substitute tackles and they held their opponents nobly. Several times Princeton had to relinquish the ball on downs and it was then immedi- ately kicked out of danger. The near est IF. iceton came to scoring in this halt WAS when she got down to Har- vards Seven yard line and was there held by a. gallant rally on Harvard's part.
 The game was really decided about five minutes after the opening of the second half. Harvard seemed so Jagged out by her efforts of the first half that she could not put her offensive plays through Wlth the ball on Haryard's forty yard line Brewer having just replaced Cabot Princeton directed play at his end. By an irresistible rush the whole Princeton eleven seemed to go between Swain and Brewer and down the field for a touch- down. It was all done in a minute and seemed to paralyze the whole Harvard team. Baird easily kicked the goal.
 The outcome of the game was defin- ltely settled about ten minutes before the close. Princeton, by her long punts. was gradually forcing Harvard back to her goal line when Harvard secured uhe pals on her ten yard line. Brown was sent back to kick but Harvard's weak ened tackles could not hold and Church broke through and blocked the ball. It rolled back of the line and Reiter fell on It for the second touchdown. Baird cas- fly made the goal
 ilme was finally called with the ball in Princeten's possession on Haryard's thir- ty yard line.

who talk OF her with moistened eyes and
softened tones. "Shc was a beautiful girl"

sought her hand was one John O'NeiI,, n
young man who had arrived in New Salem
from New York, soon after the founding OF
the town. Ann became engaged 10 Mcneil
but IL was decided To put off marriage on
account OF AIMS youth. After awhile Nc
Neili left for his home in the East sa wing
that he would return in time with his pa-
rents. Then it came out that McNeilrs real
name was McNamar. The new Salem peo.
pie pronounced him an imposter A few
letters were received from him by Ann but
