Defeating Amherst 30 to o.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. Oct. 1S.-The
Harvard varsity eleven played in encour-
aging form this afternoon, defeating AM
herst 3S to 0. The home team showed
plainly the good effects of the practice Of
the last few days in fast, snappy, offensive
work and stronger interference. Harvard
had the game all her own way; but in the
first half narrowly escaped being scored
against through a blocked kick by Am
herst. The latter got the ball only thirty
yards from Harvard's goal, and with all
the energy it was capable of forced back
the crimson line directly under it's goal to
it's five-yard line. There Amherst lost the
ball on downs and it was punted out of
danger. Harvard's offensive play, especial
ly in the second half, was fast and precise
Its defensive was strong except at center
where Burden played substitute for Dou-
cett. The great work Of the day was done
by Dibble, who made several sensational
runs. one of fifty-five yards.

MRS. FITZGERALD'S PLEA.
Claims to Have Been Insane When She
Signed Treasurer BaFtley's Bond.

OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 1S.-The trial of the
case wherein the State is making an effort
to collect a half million dollars from the
bondsmen of defaulting treasurer Joseph
BARLEY, has occupied three weeks and it
promises to continue another week. A re-
markable feature of the case has developed.
This is the multiplicity of defenses the
bondsmen will make. The testimony by
which Mrs. John Fitzgerald, who qualified
for 500 900 on the bond hopes to escape LA
bility, declares that Bartley's bond was pre-
scented to her the day after her husband
died and that she was insane at the time.
She has no recollection of having signed the
instrument. The other bondsmen assert that
if Mrs. F'itzgerald's signature is not legal
the whole bond is illegal.
