HARVARD DEFEATED.

Cambridge, Mass. Nov. .7.-Shattered,
battered and hopelessiy fighting against
heavy odds, the crippled team of Harvard
fell before the prowess of old Nassau
this afternoon, and tonight the tiger is
triumphant in victory. Twelve to moth
ing was the score of the memorable con-
test, but it does not tell of the plucky,
stubborn stand that the crimson made
against Princeton's relentless assaults,
nor of the terrific battle that was waged
for two hours back and forth across the
white-lined gridiron. The pace at times
was terrific. Many fierce assault left
the young gladiators stretched out, silent
and motionless, like so many dead logs
thrown shoreward in storm. Delay
after delay came from the successive in
juries. 1t was clean. manly fought and
was such as to delight the tremendous
crowd present. There was no end of
brilliant punting, plenty of hair-raising
encounters and exciting moments, but
from n scientific football standpoint the
game lacked the splendid organization of
forces and the brilliant tactics which
have characterized so many memorable
battles on Hampden park and Mannheim
field

in an uproar and movement toward
the stage began, but was stopped by the
introduction of Herr Most His Ian

of the meeting was orderly.

PITY the Poor Waiter.

1t is the business of a waiter to please
his customers. A man who knew just
what he wanted and liked to show that
he knew it came into the dining-room
of a certain hotel, and, while slipping at
a tumbler of water, proceeded to order
his breakfast.
Bring me a pot of coffee" he said.
"And mind, it must be hot-hot and
strong-don't forget to have it strong.
And a steak, we'll done; remember have
it we'll done and no fat. l can't bear the
sight of fat in the morning"
''Yessir, yessir. No fat replied the
waiter.
And bring me some dry toast-hot,
mind you; hot toast, and have it made
from stale bread. / don't want it
toasted outside. Now, don't forget
that
mo, sir; all right, sir. Made from
stale bread, SIR" echoed the waiter.
And some sliced tomatoes" contin-
ued the man. Il want them dry, you
understand, dry. Now, don't forget
that
''All right, sir. Tomatoes must be
dry
And let's seei Yes, bring me some
fried eggs. Fresh eggs. you know, per-
fectly fresh, and l want them fried on
one side only. Don't forget that"
Yes, sir; fried on one side. Which
side, sir?"-New York Mercury

But the interest of the worthy Pro-

watermelons in New York is evidently a

II say hypnotism is the greatest bless
ing, and I'll prove it to you"
Submit the evidence"
"Well, to begin with, my wife is one of
the finest cooks in the city Of Washing
ton, and she is also possessed of hyp-
motto power"
Whats that got to do with hypnot-
ism? Does she hypnotic you into be-
| lieving that her biscuits are fully as
| good if not better than those your
| mother made?"
mo guying, I tell you," insisted the
professor. LAS 1 said, my wife is the
finest cook in Washington, and the
average cook we hire is the worst. Not
long ago we had a cook who was
the stupidest we ever had, and one
night we had a dinner party expect
ing to get the stuff from a caterer, be-
cause it wasn't possible quite for my
wife to cook the dinner and entertain
her guests also. At the last moment the
caterer failed us, and we were in a most
disagreeable predicament. I didn't
know what to do, and at first my wife
| didn't; but women are great in an
| emergency, and after we had discussed
| and rediscussed the dilemma in which
we found ourselves-and it was then
| o'clock, and the guests were expected
at 6-my wife seemed to be struck with
an idea.
"'Wait a minute she said I think
I have discovered a cook. I'll go out
and see Amanda about it,
Amanda was our culinary angel, and
I thought if she went cook hunting it
wouldn't amount to much, for she
wouldn't know one if she saw it. In a
| few minutes my wife came back smil-
| ing.
"'Well?' asked eagerly
ct think we are saved she replied.
That's all she would say, and / have
perfect confidence in anything my wife
! tells me. I didn't let my curiosity get the
better of me, but accepted the situation;
more particularly as she told me to get
cut of the house and not come back till
it was time to dress for dinner. At $50
l returned and found my wife radiant
'How's the dinner?' I inquired.
Lovely said she.
"And it was. / never sat down to a
| better. Everything as good as my
mother could make it, and all of the
guests asked where we found such a
| superior cook. / was anxious to know
myself, and when my wife said it was
Amanda for the first time in my life |
| doubted her word. It was true, though,
and the way Amanda had done it was
| by hypnotic influence. My wife had
gone into the kitchen and hypnotized
Amanda, and willed that she should
cook that dinner right, and Amanda did
| it."
rs the skillful Amanda still hypnot-
| ized?" he asked.
II don't know" smiled the professor
when she walked up next morning she
| said she reckoned she must be hanted
| err somethin', and didn't stay to cook
breakfast. Just the same, hypnotism
| is a great snap" and the professor
emptied his glass.
