Harvard Yale DimcuIties.

Cambridge. Mass, Jan. H.-Harvard
and Yale seem to be steadily drifting
apart, and 1t now seems as IL nothing
short of a miracle would bridge over the
gulf which has arisen between them In
their attempts to resume friendly ath-
letic intercourse. The report received
from New Haven to the effect that Yale
had given up all ideas of playing Har-
ward this year was a surprise to the ath-
letic committee here, and Professor j.
III. Beale went as far as to say that he
thought that the report from New Haven
vas very likely true. He would say
nothing more. however, except that Har-
ward was likely to give out an official
statement of the entire affair inside of a
week. The one point which has been
bothering the committee here for some
time past Is whether IL would be con-
sistent for Harvard to play baseball with
Yale I'm case no boat race was arranged
i'm view of their original position, that
contests must include all sports or none.

WHALERS DEFEATED.

Fall River Captures the Game After an
Exciting Contest by Good Team Work.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Jan. H.-The New
Bedford team started in last night as
though they intended to win, but after
caging two goals they were unable to
maintain the pace they had set, the superb
defence work of Russell, Wodtke and Cot
ter holding them down, and the Whalers
were badly distanced during the remainder
of the game. Smith was kept busy and
did good work. The first two periods were
remarkable for clean playing, but the last
was decidedly different in this respect, and
both teams lost a goal through fouls. This
sort of thing was started by Conway.
Everett got in the game with both feet
about this time, and collisions between he
and Conway were frequent. The second
time they came together the Whaler was
downed and would have Jared very badly
but for the prompt action of the referee.
The summary:

ACTION OF K 0. STUDENTS
Who Passed Resolutions of Levity are
Promptly Repudiated.

Lawrence, Feb. 26.-The resolutions
of the university students passed in
mass meeting Wednesday in a spirit of
levity were repudiated yesterday by
voters and members of the university
who disavoW any connection with the
matter whatever in the following res
OlutiOn:
Resolved, That we, members of all
political parties, desire to express our
entire confidence in the legislature of
the state of Kansas. We trust in their
ability to manage the affairs of this
state to the best interests of the people
thereof, and feel that as students of the
university we are not called upon to
offer any gratuitOus advice further
than to express an earnest hope and
desire that the best interests of the IN
iversity be carefully considered and
preserved, feeling that if this is done
the expenditure of a few thousand dol
lars will not be withheld when such ac-
ton will cripple an educational insti-
tuition which has long been the pride
and glory of the state.

trains between New York and Kansas

Engin eer Mac Saves the Lives of Two
School Children.

The Arkansas City Traveller relates
the following incident:
The passenger was about a mile
north of Guthrie. Alongside of the
track for some distance is the highway
Suddenly some one looking out of the
car saw a pony running away, and the
attention of all the passengers was di-
rected to it.
On the animal were two small chill
dren and they had no more control over
it than the wind. The pony was hit
ting the high places only and as the
train gained upon him he became more
frightened, as did also the children.
Alongside of the highway is a barb
wire fence, and everyone expected to
see the pony shy into it as the train
passed. Then they expected to see the
children killed or badly injured by the
fall and cut by the wire fence. But
they were happily disappointed.
D. c. Mac was the engineer and he
saw the runaway pony and the fright
ened children and by his thouGhtfulness
saved the little ones. He shut off the
steam and brought the train to a stand
still The pony. finding it was not
being pursued by the train got over it's
scare, ran a short distance and was
stopped by the children. They turned
off and the train came on after they
were out of harms way.

4 Phillipsburg Man Invents an In

Phillipsburg, Feb. Pa gentleman
of this city invented one of the most
perfect coupling devices which has ever
been put upon the market 1t was
originally designed to couple the hose
between freight and passenger cars,
through which the compressed air
passes to the automatic brakes, and
also the hose which conducts the steam
heat from the engine to the cars.
The device is so constructed that it
goes together by direct connection by
one cylinder passing into another. The
inner cylinder is open along one entire
side, allowing it to expand and con-
tract, so that when the pressure is on
the inner cylinder expands, filing the
entire space and also automatically
locking it, thus making it perfectly Sc
cure and making a direct connection,
removing all friction and leaving no
baskets or washers of any kind to get
out of repair or wear out.

Cleveland at $3.50, city time, is due in
Pittsburg at 1925. From Pittsburg to
a point two miles from the city the
tracks are entirely under water. At
McKee's Rocks two of the heaviest en-
gines coupled together relieved the en-
CINE which had brought the train from
Youngstown.
The railroad men about McKee's
Rocks were notified that an attempt
would be made to take the flyer into
Pittsburg on time and many boarded
the train to see it done. With all the
steam the boilers could carry the two
engines dashed into the water, the fires
being extinguished before they had
gone hundred yards. With the mo-
Inentum and the quantity of steam in
the boilers the engines forged through,
