NEWPORT NEWS, VA, November o.
Especial -Thanksgiving-Day was gene

yard closed down, and the $500 employees
were given a holiday. The event in
which the greatest interest conferred was
the game of football between the New

A Clean, marlborough Contest.

From referees standpoint l would
say the game to-day was a clean, hard
fought contest. The frequent injuries
made 1t difficult for both teams to play
very fast game.
North Carolina certainly deserves
great deal of credit for their plucky
fight in the face Of so great odds, and
Virginia proved, beyond a doubt the add
vantage in using the guards-back forma-
ton. with which they gained all of their
ground in the second half.
Belden, the North Carolina full back.
got his kicks away very fast. as did
Morrison, of Virginia. At times the play
OF both sides was very good, and the
game was much closer than the score
indicates. ADDISON n. KELLY,

Criticism of an Experienced Trainer

The game was won on it's merits. Man
Tor man, Virginia was superior in the
line, and her backs equalled those of
North Carolina. IT'S true she suffered
from overconfidence at first but soon
realized that her opponents were plav-
Ing the game Of their lives. The randi
ity with which the first touchdown was
made indicated a prospect of a big
score. However. North Carolina took a
decided brace after the first few downs
and surprised her own admirers by stop-
ping Virginia rushes and gaining the bah
on downs. IL seemed. too. that Vir-
glnia grew listlesS after her touchdown.
and 1t was not until the last few mo-
ments Of play that the orange seemed
inclined TO add to the score when thev
showed the same spirit of enthusiasm
that pervaded the Hampton game.
Nirglnia's line was impenetrable. Caro-
Ina could gain ground only by skirting
the ends and by means of a REVOLVING,
wedge on tackle. the latter being fire.
quently used with good results. Bel
den's punting was one Of the features
Of the game. Time and again he re-
,eived the ball, when half a dozen men I
'treamed through the line upon him. but I
ne usually got the ball off down the field 4
n fine shape. Had he been properly |
protected in his four attempts at a goal

cad differently.
For Virginia, Davis, Templeman, and
Collier did the star work. Their line
'reaking was simply superb Time ana

Superior Defence Won Their victory.

l have little to say Of toSay's game.
L think we won because we had the best
team, but in saying this l do not at all
underrate the splendid work done by the
North Carolina team. We knew we had
70 meet good men, and were not sur
prised at their magnificent game
Technically speaking, our superior de-
fence defeated North Carolina; still. 1
feel L cannot say too much for Caro-
lina's splendid game.
Regarding Virginia's team. I desire 70
say that it was the best that could be
gotten together for the game, but that it
contained several green men. Had we
have had team composed Of men train
ed Is thoroughly as the best of those
who played, the victory would have been
much more decisive.

Did Better Than They Expected.

We hoped to hold Virginia down to
twenty points. and we are more than
satisfied. The team was much handi-
capped by the loss of McRae and the
general condition Of the men. II was a
magnificent display Of pluck and nerve
against great strength and weight. We
We're outweighed more than twenty
pounds per man.
Virginia was fortunate in securing the
ban on tumble in the first half while
North Carolina was very close to her
own goal. After the first score
the game was nip and tuck be-
tween the two elevens. In the second
half the bail was in Yirginias territory
nearly all Of the time.
North Cardinals great mistake was I'm
railing to kick when in her own terri
tory, and thus surrendering the ball to
Virginia within scoring distance. Then
her great weight in the guards-back
formation enabled her TO score.
virginia won the game on it's merits.
and played straight, gentlemanly
game. There was an entire lack Of
roughness on the part of both teams.
None OF North Cardinals men were Sc
riously injured. but were taken out be-
cause OF weakness and small bruises.

ONE WHEEL SULKY.
1t Is Tired With Pneumatic Tube, and
the Frame Is of Aluminium.

A one wheel sulky has been invented
by Thomas G.. Coleman of Texas, who
believes it will revolutionize trotting
records. The vehicle, as its name i'm
plies, has only one big wheel. The
wheel is tired with a pneumatic tube.
The frame of the carriage, for the sake
of lightness, strength and elasticity, is
made of aluminium tubing, and the
shafts are of the same construction.
A sulky of such pattern ought to
travel at phenomenal rate with a ca
pable trotter between the shafts. Its
weight is almost nothing and its con-
tact with Mother Earth is of the slight
est. OF course it would not stand up
right without help when stationary, but
attached to the two shafts are a couple
of hinged legs which prevent any posi-
bility of tipping over. When starting
off, the legs, by an automatic device,
fold themselves up alongside OF the
shafts and are out of the way.-Chicago

Greatest " Ray Machine.

The greatest X ray machine in the
world was exhibited recently in the
Lawrence scientific school Of Harvard
college. The new apparatus has the as
tonishing electric motive force Of ,200,-
600 volts. which is about equal to the
voltage of 2, 400 electric cars. 1t gives
spark 4S inches long, an achievement
hitherto unknown. The condensers are
charged in series, and by an ingenious
mechanical device consisting Of swing
ing frame they are discharged in paral-
lei upon the two terminals. There are
60 condensers with capacity of 20, 600
volts each. The number of storage cells
is 1000. Professor Trowbridge has
proved that the length of the spark is
exactly proportional to the voltage
lengths over one inch.

mirers. It is difficult TO determine just
wherein lies Sir Wilfrid's charm. He
is, to be sure, an extremely fine looking
man, bright and responsive and quick
at repartee, as BELTS man Of French
origin, and he has the polish acquired
only through general culture and con-
tact with the world, but there is be-
sides an atmosphere about him, certain
indefinable something that puts all per-
sons at ease the moment they enter his
presence and ON good terms with the
premier and with themselves.
No one who has talked with Sir Will
frid Laurier but is convinced of how in
earnest he is concerning the establish
ment of better relations between the
United States and Canada, and while
his ambition in this direction may be
regarded by some as Utopian glance
at his career will show that few fail.
ures are marked against him, and his
sound common sense on all questions OF
state is universally admitted.
"What pleases me most about Sir
Wilfrids visit" said member OF the
present administration the other day,
sis the sensible and practical way in
which he came to Washington for the
purpose of talking these matters over.
His coming was not trumpeted weeks
beforehand There was no correspond
ence, no negotiation. There was a
question of dispute between two neigh
bors. There were many subjects in
which they were both ir> psted which
should be talked over. Like the sensi-
BILE fellow he is, Sir Wilfrid put on his
hat and invited his advisers to come
along and run down here to talk the mat
ter over with our president and his advis-
ers. To be sure, he did not accomplish
much, but he has established a precedent.
How much better for two nations to talk
their disputes over cozily, like neigh
bors in the country who have misunder-
standings over their fences or their
stock, than to growl at each other at a
distance. Sir Wilfrid Laurier is SEM
sible man, practical man, and, above
all, good man, and that is the reason
he is the idol of his party. New York
Tribune.

Tramp with Literary Genius.

A young man, fairly well dressed,
called at the home of we'll known
Indianapolis woman recently and asked
for something to eat. She told him
to go to the wcodhouse and saw some
wood while she prepared breakfast
for him. Not coming back, the woman
went to the wood shed, and found that
the tramp had gone. No wood had been
cut, but tackled on one Of the sticks was

The Crossing Policeman Is as Wise as Sol.
ONION When Necessary.

ONION when Necessary.
The policeman who maintains life
and order at the meeting of two down
town streets must be possessed of con-
siderable judgment. He must know
when to make hole in the wall, so to
speak, through the mass OF vehicles and
let a portion of the surging humanity
go through. He must know how to
do several things at once-to at the
same time chat pleasantly with lady
friend of his, tell woman from the
suburbs where the streets she's on is
and pull a couple of old gentlemen from
the Jaws of cable cars, and, what Is
more surprising, most of the down town
force can do this. and, what is truly as
tonishing, nearly all do it i'll a gentle
manly manner and keep their tempers
we'll
1t is not infrequently that an officer
is found who can do all this and more
too. At one of the most prominent cross
streets there is policeman who is
close second to the caliph that decided
the ownership of an infant in his own
highly original way. Among many in
stances where his acumen has played a
particular part is one that happened q
day or so ago. 1t concerned a bicycle.
The latter was left by its rider against
the curb. A few minutes later young
man approached it. The policeman in
question had not seen the owner get off
the machine, but he thought the new
conner looked trifie suspicious. The
oh nd lot xtyha o. no Ia
had been secured together by paddock.
When the young man in question began
20 carry the wheel off instead of unlock
ing it he felt it was about time to act.
'Do you own that bicycle?" he said
to the young man."
Eyes," was the reply.
Where's your key, then?" was his
next.
1--WE lost it," That settled it.
"Say, now," continued the police
man, will you give me your name and
address,
The young man seemingly did not
want to make any trouble. He hesitated
for a moment and then said, "Why, yes,
if you want it. F"
"And now," continued the police.
man, after he had it, you know the
case looks strange, and you know we
have so many bikes lost, would yor
mind waiting ID minutes to see if any
one else should come after that wheel?'
"No, / guess not, f" said the younl
man. Then he leaned back on a railing
and began to wait After he had beer
there three or four minutes the police
man said: well, i guess it's all right
