"Well, Charley Dresser went to his
office yesterday to ask him for the hand
of his daughter"
sand ! suppose the old man asked
him TO make out an inventory of his
worldly possessions, swear to it and
then turn it over to him. as evidence
OF his ability to support her in the style
to which she has been accustomed?"
mo, Charley was prepared for some
thing OF that sort; but the old man
didn't ask for any Details

'.No. He didn't do that, either. He
just looked at Charley over his glasses
In solemn sort of way and asked
"Have you spoken to my daughter,
yeti"
"of course Charley said he had"
And she has sent you to me?" went
on the old man.
"She has, answered Charley.
Then I suppose there is but one
matter to be consideredv said the old
man, and Charley naturally smiled and
said that was the way it impressed him.
We may as well come down to bus
mess at once, said the old man after
that. I am straightforward man OF
few words. Do you want to buy her or
do you want her to buy you? I've no

sell cheap and won't pay muchl'
"And what did Charley do?"
He hasn't done anything yet. He's
still thinking it over.''

FOOT BALL BATTLE FUTILE.
YALE AND HARVARD FAIL To
SCORE AGAINST EACH OTHER.

Each Team Puts Up strong Defense,
But shows Weak GrOund-Gaini
POwers-Harvard Had More Possi-
biIitles Than Yale and Possessed
Capabilities She Did Not Employ 20
the LimIt-Harvard's Eleven Look
Wind 81 Factor.
Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 15.-HarvaTd and
Yale played each other to standstill this
afternoon on Soldiers field For two thrill
ing hours the sturdy elevens struggled over
the white lined gridiron desperately dis
putting every inch of territory and vainly
essaying to cross coveted goal line. The
teams had each a strong defense and weak
ground gaining powers, and the logical
outcome of the contest was that neither
side scored.
The game was Disappointing, Each elev-
en- was confident of victory and the expee-
tations of neither was realized. Harvard
should have won. She had more possibili-
ties than her rival, and she had eapabili-
ties she did not employ TO the limit. Yale
was but once within scoring distance of
the Harvard goal, but when Harvard was
put to the test she was found wanting,
and Yale by resolute and determined de-
what Brown. West Point, Carlisle and Chi
cago had already accomplished.
The game was unusually devoid of long,
brilliant runs and hair-ralsing kicks, but
the enormous crowd was kept at the in
tensest pitch Of excitement over the final
outcome. The high wind was an lmpor-
tant factor In the result. 1t made neces-
sary a partly different system of offense
and defense for both teams. Yale In win
ming the toss and securing the wind, had
Harvard at great odds. The fact that heav-
lily handicapped as she was Harvard de-
Tended her territory so strongly, led all to
believe that in the second half the Grim
son would score an easy victory
In the second, when Harvard had the
strong wind at her back. Il was after she
had been battered and buffeted about the
grldlron for over an hour and was in no
condition to strike into the line with the
most telling effect. Yales supposed supe-
rlority in bucking did not materialize.
Even when Mcbride and Desaulles had
the wind at their backs Haughton nearly
held his own. At times the Yale backs
made miserable attempts at puntlng. Four
times they had their kicks blocked by the
Harvard forwards; once 1t turned to their
own advantage, but once decidedly to
Harvard's. Haughton was guilty Of sew
eral bad, but not costly fumbles, while
Yales back seemed to misjudge the punts
continually and they were never sure on
their catches. AT the end Yale seemed to
be the fresher.

ANNEXATION GROWS IN FAVOR.
Mercantile and Foreign Elements in
the Island Want a Change,

Havana, Nov. 13-Dispatches from Mad
rid say that the officially inspired papers,
El Correo and La Correspondence point
to a possibility of the autonomist party di-
viding into radical and conservative wings.
1t is generally believed that the newly ap-
pointed governors in Cuba will hold their
offices but comparatively short time, as
it is the general opinion that within two
months insular chambers will be formed,
when the governors will be elected by pop
ular votes.
The insurgents are active throughout
Central and Eastern Cuba 1t is understood
that they will shortly make bold demon
stration as proof that they have not ac-
cepted autonomy and TO induce the next
session OF the United States congress to
recognize their rights as belligerents.
Marshal Blanco, 1t is understood lacks
the necessary moral influence over the
troops to induce them to carry out his
plans for the kind eatment of the insur-
gents and the natural consequence of this
Is a state of confiction. The annexation
Of Cuba to the United States is gaining in
favor among the mercantile and foreign
elements in the island.
The local band of guerillas at Felipe
province of Havana, were surprised by a
band of insurgents of Juan Delgado and
eight of twenty guerilas composing the
band were macheted. The rest fled to the
town.
Gen. Blanco has dispatched several pacl-
ficoes, provided with passes to insurgent
lines, with view to inviting the leaders
to lay down their arms and accept au-
tonomy He has issued orders to the
guerilla bands not to moest these ENJOYS
Gen. Panchi Carrillo, according to Off
cial reports, recently crossed by way of
the La Luisa hills at Placetas, with 200
mounted men, returning from Cienfuegos,
where he went to meet an expedition
which was landed there recently, it is be-
lieved by the Dauntless. Gen. Carrillo
was on his way to the Felicia ranch on the
border of Rio Blanco, where is located the
camp of Gen. Gomez in the Santic Spiritus
district.

LAURIER WELL LIKED.
The Canadian Premier Makes n Good
Impression at Washington.

Washington. Nov. 13.--While the plans
of the Canadian contingent now in Wash
lngton In connection with the seal confer
ence are not finally fixed, 1t is the present
expectation that Sir Wilfred Laurier the
premier with Sir Louis Davies, and his
personal following, will leave Washington
on their return home Tuesday.
Something of the view taken OF this Can
adian mission by our government may be
gathered by the following utterances Of a
high administration official who has had
dealings with the Canadian premier: Sir
Wilfred Laurier has not only been re-
ceived by the government with great con-
sideratlon, but has made an excellent Inn
preston upon ell of the gentlemen with
whom he has come I'm contact. As a
staunch Canadian statesman he naturally
demands concession for concession. At
the same time he has shown liberal spirit
towards the plan of increasing the COM
mercial Intercourse of the two countries.
and II he meets the views of the United
States half way there is a very fair chance
of removing from the present field of view
the most important questions which have
produced so much irritation between the
two countries during the preceding period
of conservative administration in Cam
ada

ARMENIAN AGITATORs.


Washington, Nov 13.--The Turkish lega-
ton to-day, after inquiry, authorized the
following statement concerning recent Ar
menian outbreaks: "The Armenian agi-
tators, conforming to their subversive
programme form bands of brigands in or
der to subverr the public order and secur-
ity of the 3ifire; and not only the Arme-
nan brigands, but also their wives use
Martini rifles and dynamite shells. Only
recently the governor general of the vi
layet of Sivas and the governor of Janilk
have reported that the Armenian bands
of brigands, members of the revolutionary
Huntshaguisti committee in those regions,
under orders of the Houssep and Minas
Oghlon, were pursued and arrested.
'eThereupon, these individuals like
many others under the same conditions,
were conducted to their churches to swear
an oath, which they did, that they would
live honestly and submit strictly to the
laws of keeping peace. Afterwards the
authorities occupied themselves with the
task of securing for them a place of refuge
and provided them with all the necessa-
rles of life to enable them to live honestly
and peacefully"

Brown University Wins by a Score of
IS to IL at New York.
New York, Nov. 13.-The elevens from
the Carlisle Indian School and Brown Uni
servity fought their annual gridiron bat
lie on the Polo grounds this afternoon
in the presence of about 5000 spectators,
Brown winning, IS to IA. 1t was clearly a
battle Of strength against science, and SCI
ence came out on top. Two players were
so severely injured that their foot ball
career of 1897 is likely to be cut short. Both
injured men belong to the Indian team,
and both met disaster in the second half.
Wheeler had his shoulder sprained and
gave way to Scott. McFarland's Injury
was more serious. His ankle was dislo-
Gated, and 1t was found necessary to move
him to a hospital in Harlem. All the
Brown men escaped without serious in

CARTER TO BE CLEARED.

The Report of the board Casts no
Reflection ON His Integrity.
Washington, Nov 13.-Gen. Wilson. chief
of engineers, received the report of the
board of officers in the case of Capt Car
ter to-day. Gen. Wilson positively refuses
to make the report public, stating that as
the board was called together by the di-
rection of the Secretary of War the re-
port can only be promulgated by author
ity from Secretary Alger. The latter is
confined to his house by slight illness.
1t is understood that the report is not
adverse to Capt. Carter, for although it
shows that he may have been careless in
the administration in some of the routine
affairs of his office there is nothing re-
flecting upon the personal integrity or pro-
fessional skill of Capt Carter in the find
ings of the boa rd
