TO SEE THE GREAT GAME.
MANY WILMINGTONIANs GO TOl
SEE PENNSYLVANIA DOWN HAIR
YOUNG JACKSON'S WORK.

NARD-YOUNG JACKSON'S WORK.
A number of Wilmingtonians left
town this afternoon for Franklin Field,
Philadelphia, to see the great football
contest between the Universities OF
Pennsylvania and Harvard.
Philadelphia is literally football
crazy and every big store in the place is
decorated with the colors of the two
teams.
An Evening Journal representative
saw the arrival OF the Pennsylvania
team from Delaware Water Gap in
Broad Street Station last evening ana
the scene there resembled the over
throw of Rome. Wilmington passen-
gers were crowded off the platforms in
the football rush.
The Philadelphia players are loud In
their praises of the work Of Delaware s
wiry athlete on the Pennsylvania team,
NJ. Roy Jackson, left half-baclI, who, by
his brilliant work in that position, rs
entitled to the highest praise. Never
having seen the game before coming
from his home in Delaware added
praise is due him. He is a strong run
ner, sure tackler and all around foot
baller His runs have been of the cheer
compelling order-notably the one of 20
yards, which he made in the Carlisle
Indian game. He is % years old and
weighs l73 pounds.

oxford, Pa, Nov 20.-James w. Rus

Of Hickory Hill, near here, will never
forget the circumstances under which
they were married. Mr.. Russell recently
secured a marriage license, and last
night he and the lady drove away, their
intention being to keep the marriage
quiet. They drove several miles, and
halted at Bayview, Cecil county. Md A
minister, Rev. Mr. MaJher was found
who before proceeding with the oere-
mony, asked TO see the license. 1t was
Shown, and he disappointed the walt
ing couple by stating he could not
marry them in Maryland on a license
issued in Pennsylvania.
They departed for the Keystone State,
and on the way stopped at Zion Md,
and called on the Presbyterian minister,
Rev. W. j. FitzSimon. to whom they
related their disappointment. He SYM
pathizod with them, and mounting his
horse piloted them cut of Maryland to
Chrome, Pa, just north Of the Mason
and Dixon line, about five miles. from
Zion The two surprised the pOlsmas-
ter at Chrome, Stephen Trimble, on
making known their mission. He
promptly furnished room for the oc-
casiCn, and the ceremony was perform
cd without delay, Notwithstanding the
ncarness CT midni2htThe accommO 'at-
ing minister was remembered, and like
the genuine Irishman he is, he galloped
hOmeward and the happy couple went

If You Will Lay Aside
Your Prejudice

AND COME to us with a desire to
learn why it is not to your interest to
carry high priced insurance, and how we
can furnish you just as safe insurance
for at least 40per cent. a year less than the
other costs, we are sure we can show you
to your satisfaction that the MUTUAL
RESERVE FUND LIFE ASSOCIA-
TION of New York does business on a
plan that is absolutely safe, and will pro-
tect your loved ones even better than
they now are, at even greater cost to
to you. Of course if you are too preju-
diced to investigate and imagine that the
high price you are now paying makes
your insurance better or safer, or better
than it would be at less cost, we can't do
anything for you but will be forced to
let you 60 on until time, the crucial
tester, convinces you, against your will,
that you have been deceived.

THE CHIEF JUSTICE In A FIX.-An
amusing anecdote is told Of the cele'
brated Chief Justice John Marshall by
his descendants, in illustration of the
curious lack of practical sense Of that
wonderfully profound legal luminary
Returning one afternoon from his
farm near Richmond, Va, to his home
in that city, the hub of his wheel
caught on a small sapling growing by
the roadside. After striving unsuc.
cessfully for some moments to extri.
cate the wheel, he heard the sound o1
an axe in the woods, and saw Negro
man approaching. Hailing him, he
said, "If you will get that axe and cut
down this tree, I'll give you a dollar. y
~ en- git yer by 'thout no axe, ei
dat's all yer want"
ayes, that's ALL" said the judge.
The man simply backed the horse
until the wheel was clear of the sap.
ling, then brought the vehicle safely
around it.
"You don't charge dollar for that
do you ?" asked the astonished CHIEF
justice.
"No, massa; but it's wuf dollar
to larn some folks sense"
The quick-witted darkey got his
dollar without further questioning.

A Snare
And DelUSiOn.

IF you have taken out life insurance
l. policy in an Old Line high price ''level
premium" company with the idea that
you, would at sometime in the future,
ceive substantial cash returns or "big
dividends" we are here to tell you that
you will be disappointed. Your policy
will prove snare and q delusion. 1t is
all right for protection for your wife and
children, as they will receive the face of
the policy in case of your death, as they
would also in a company that charges
you half as much. A life insurance poll
cy is a fraud as an investment for q living
man, and is the greatest blessing of which
we or anybody else has any knowledge
as means of protecting the widow and
orphans, after the breadwinner has been
removed by death.
