Notes of the Game.

The Parkersburg papers say some
nice things about the boys for their
game Saturday The Sentinel says:
For w. Y. U. White played star
game. He has his men well in hand,
and in addition to his admirable foot
ball qualifications he is thorough
gentleman; such men as he can do
the sport great great deal Of good.
Both teams are composed of perfect
gentlemen and smuggling and quarrel
ing was noticeable for It's absence.
There was no rough work, whatever,
and neither team was penalized more
than twice off-side play.
Osborne, Yeager, Noble and WEIGH,
of the w. V. U. especially distin-
guished themselves, but no player Of
the o. S. U. played exceptional foot
ball.
The Journal comments as follows:
Capt. White, of the w. V. q. team
had his men under good control and
there was refreshing absence of the
ragchewing which sometimes charac-
terizes foot ball games.
There is some talk of getting Mar
ietta and w. V. y. here for a game
on the Saturday following Thanks
giving. These teams are so evenly
matched that such a contest would
be one of the best ever seen here. 1t
is needless to add that the grounds VIII
be filled with spectators.
The football game Saturday was
one of the cleanest ever seen here.
There was no charge of brutality, OF
unsportsmanlike conduct and it is
safe to affirm that this great college
game has gained many new sympa-
thizers from the ranks of those, who
few years ago, were bitter against
the sport condemning it as species
of savagery. Football is as genteel as
any other sport when it is properly
conducted.

woman who would not show her limb

suit against the city for damage, al
leging that she fell on the sidewalk
and injured one of her limbs above
and below the knee. She dressed the
injured member herself. She is Miss
Marie Prevoncha, Professional
nurse.
When she was placed upon the
stand Saturday the counsel for the
city raised point as to the character
of the injury and insisted that in or
der that the jury could better judge
of the facts Miss Prevoncha should
exhibit her injured limb to the jury.
"Never," she fairly Kissed, as she
pointed her finger at the city Prosecu-
tor. "The demand is monstrous. :"
The Prosecutor insisted and the
Judge finally decided that it would be
indicate to enforce the demand, and
the case went to the jury, which re-
turned verdict for the city.

Tried For Rape.

Sunday night at Fairmont Ben R.
Hustead committed an act which
came near landing him behind the
bars of the pen. He assaulted girl
named Icie Reppert, grabbing her
by the arm and dragging her across
the street. He wanted her to take a
buggy ride with him but she stoutly
resisted and escaped from him. She
comes of good family but bears an
unsavory reputation.
Hustead was arrested and yester
day was tried before Squire t. A.
Fleming on charge of rape. The
charge was not sustained. However
Hustead was fined $40 tor assault
and battery.

Disinfecting the Envoy.

When his excellel cy. Mr.. Chung. the
special envoy from the emperor of Chi.
ma to Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubi.
lee. arrived at Port Victoria, British
Columbia. it was found that there had
been smallpox on board. and the au.
thorities at once ordered the ship to
quarantine for tventy-four days, and
all the passengers to be fumigated.
Mr. Chung refused to submit to such
insulting treatment. He said to fumi-
gate the envoy Was practically the fun
ieating Of the emperor of China and
the most awful crime that any mortal
could commit. The Canadian govern
rent, the British govcrEmen t and the
Chinese minister in London were all
appealed to. and the unfumigatcd en-
voy was allowed to go free and carry
infection even to the Diamond Jubilee.
