ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD.
TWO or TIE lost IMPORTANT
EVENTS OF THE FEAR TODAY.

The InrvHrd-P Pennsylvania Game on Franklin
FIeia Attracting n Great Deal of Attention
Beth Teams Are In Good Condition for
the Struggle - Contests nt Other Places.
This Is really the last important football day
Of the year, although several attractive games
will bo played on Thanksgiving Day. But the
big clevcns really wind up their heavy schedule
this afternoon with what will probably be tho
best sport OF tho year. Primarily, tho Yale.
Princeton match at New Haven will attract. the
bulk Of the public's attention. This gSpc has of
late years been played in this city, but 1t got 10
10 such an immense outing that tho college
faculties interfored and 1t was decided here
after to play 1t on college grounds. Next in
Importance is the Harvard. Pennsylvania game
at Philadelphia. The failure OF tho Crimson 10
defeat Yale has made this contest particularly
interesting, for the Quakers have what Is
thought to be the strongest eleven in the coun.
try, barring Princeton, II by chance Harvard
should win from Pennsylvania and Princeton
should defeat Yale, the season would end with
tho Tigers having n just claim on the football
championship. But il Pennsylvania and
Princeton both win, there Will bo the same:un.
satisfactory state of affairs that has existed
since relations with Pennsylvania were severed
by both Yale and Princeton in 1894.
Boston enthusiasts will have another chance
90 see the Crimson and the Blue play when tho
Harvard and Yale freshmen come together on
Soldiers Field, Cambridge. this afternoon.
This is the first time they have met since 1894.
and both have good teams. Tho Yale young
sters defeated Princeton, 1901, last Saturday
by a 'scoro of 10 to o. and n few weeks ago tho
Harvard freshmen defeated Pennsylvania, 1901,
by 81 to o. There arc two other good games

~CYNTHIANA, Ky. Nov. 19.-The National Fox
Hunters meet to-day was not successful be-
cause SO many persons attended who knew
nothing about fox hunting, and they made it
impossible for the dogs to do good work. There
were fully 500 men and women on horseback at
the hunting grounds. three miles north of town,
on the Lyking River. When the dogs were
turned loose ut 8 o'clock this morning two Of
them at once gave tongue, and then the other
thir;y-nine entries rushed toward them, and
there was utter Generalization OF dogs aud men.
H1!tErcw n fellows who live in Cynthiana and
surrounding country gallopcd up on their
horses. cut the dogs off, and for the time being
spoiled the chase. Ono of the wild horsemcn
ran his horse over n pretty black and white
spotted dog owned by the Strades Valley Ken
mel. Winchester, and seriously injured him. A
dog belonging to John Parks of Garrard county
had a foot badly mashed. Owing to the bad be.
havior of the crowd Col. Jack Chinn. Senator
John Bennett, sam Redd, William Parks. and
Alex. Gibbs withdrew their dogs. eighteen in all,
and sent them into town.
Walker brothers and several others say they
Will leave for home with their dogs Tomorrow,
and decline to 20 on with the trials. There is a
great deal of dissatisfaction among the hunters
over the interference of the crowd, and the
authorities may take a hand to prevent further
intertcrcncC. After the dogs had been slipped
half an hour they struck IA hot trail, but 1t was
followed tor only thrccHQuarters of an hour,
when they lost it,. The hunt was called off at IL
O'Clock, the fox having taken his hole. A Sec
ond fox was then started by n few hunters,
whose dogs ran him half an hour. when the
trail was lost. The trials will DO continued to-

A true copy.

During the present week most of our
farmers who are not done breaking
their lands for corn and pats have been
blowing. We notice that the wheat
and winter oats crops as a general
thing are looking very promising; let
them come and yield US beautifully,
for there is a big fertilizer account to
be settled next fall. Some of our Cit.
zens are advocating that a 20 cent ad.
ditional tax levy will or ought to be
made to help defray the expenses of
building three bridges across Nola-
chucky River; let US consider that there
is at Jackson's a bridge, at Embreeyille
a ferryboat; these two conveniences
amply accommodate the taxayers from
James Taylor's to Embreeyille on the
south side of the river; on north side
from Esquire George Clark's to all
points to the Buffalo Mountain. I be.
lieve that four fifths of the farm pro.
ducts raised on the south side of the
river from Taylor's to Embreeville are
sold at Embreeville; let us go west from
Taylor's to the Greene County line and
we find a large number of farmers who
have to go to Jackson's or Fullens to
cross the river by bridge; let us look
at the meanderings of the river and at
the amount Of tax paid by those who
would be benefited by a bridge cross
ing the river at the most practicable
point between Brownsboro and the
mouth of Little Limestone Creek. and
decide whether or not q greater mum.
Der of taxpayers would not be accom-.
m odated by a bridge at this point than
one at any point from Jackson's to
En- breeville. l have no ak to grind
and pay but little tax but am for prog.
ress and fair dealing in all things. The
probabilities are that there will be but
one bride built in the near future,
therefore let us do justice in the loca-
ton of this one. This evening two of
the Literary Societies at the College
will celebrate the fret advent of George
Washington to Westmoreland County,
Virginia. As usual we may expect
the exercises to be both entertaining
and instructive. Mrs. Thomas Bright
is no better. Frank Parker says he has
too Bright an idea to solve, to return
to the west this spring. Mrs. W. NJ.
Buckner died Monday morning. The
bereaved family and friends have our
