SAME OLD STORY.
WOMAN LOCKS HER CHILDREN
IN THE HOUSE.
Goes Away, Has a Good Time, and
Returns to Find All of the Little
Ones Dead.

Hanover, Pa, Jan. Last evening
the three little children of MIR. and
Mrs. George Outer, who live in the
country about four miles from this
place, were suffocated. Mrs. Outer
left home to see a neighor and locked
her three small children and a pet dog
III the house. When she returned she
found her three little ones, with the
dog, all huddled together in a corner
of the room, dead.
1t is supposed that a spark from the
stove fell on the carpet, causing a
smothered fire that soon filled the room
with smoke and burned the floor.

still yesterday afternoon on sldiers
Field. For two thrilling hours The
sturdy eleyens struggled over fhS
white-lined gridiron, desperately dis
putting every inch of the territory and
vainly essaying to cross the coveted
goal lines. The teams had each n
strong defense and weak ground gain
ing powers, and the logical outcome of
the contest was that neither side
scored
The game was disappointing. Eact
eleven was confident OF the victory
and the expectations of neither was
realized. Harvard should have won
she had more possibilities than her ri
val, and she had capabilities which she
did not employ to the limit.
Yale was but once within scoring
distance OF the Harvard goal, but wher
Harvard was put to the test she was
not found wanting. and by her reso-
lutte and determined defense prevented
the crimson from doing what Brown
West Point, Carlisle and Chicago hac
already accomplished. II was as stub
born and bitter a football battle as
was ever fought. Each play brought
every bit of spirit and power possible
into its inception. and 1t took the con
centrated efforts OF eleven men TO STOP
il. Both teams fought like men deter
mined that their opponents should moi
gain an inch, and although the contest
lacked the foot ball pyroteehnics and
the dramatic incidents OF the old-umt
games, IL was hard fight from first tc
last
The game was unusually devoid oi
long, brilliant runs and hair-raisins
tackles. but the enormous crowd was
kept al the intensest pitch Of excite
ment over the final outcome
The high wind was an important fac
tor OF the result. II made necessary 8
partially different system OF offensive
and defensive for both teams. Yale
winning the toss and securing this
wind, had Harvard at great odds. Ths
fact thar. heavily handicapped as sh,
was. Harvard defended her territory
so strongly, led all to believe that In
the second half the crimson woulc
score an easy victory.
In the second, when Harvard hae
the strong wind at her back, 1t was af
ter she had been battered and buffetet
about the gridiron for over an hom
