Cutting Array

A very thrilling alfray increased
the tumult and added TO the yaric-
ty Of life on Main Street on Tues
day December 18th.
The attention OF the busy throng
wns first attracted TO what appear-
ed to be a foot race between
white man and a negro, and they
watched it with some amusement,
mover dreaming, as the parties
darted up Main Street from Wal
nut, that a very close approach to
a tragedy was being enacted before
their eyes. Reaching the vacant
lot next to Hawkins, Crittenden &
Co., the negro rushed into it, and
was caught by the white man.
who threw him down, drew a
knife, ane proceeded TO cut his
throat, The horrifed crowd looked
on in stupefed condition, and
ghastly murder seemed certain.
But the nerve Of the white man
must have deserted him, for he
made only a trifing wound in the
neck of his victim when the crowd
recovered their senses and the
tragedy was cut short by his ar
rest.
It trsnspired that a bar room
quarrel was the cause of the affair,
Both men were drinking, and the
negro cursed and insulted the white
man, with the result described.

The many friends of Mr.. and
Mrs. Van B. Boddie and Mrs. S.
NJ Shields will rejoice to learn
that this family, which has for SO
long been one of the most popular
in the social life of Greenville,
have reconsidered their decision to
make Memphis their future home.
The announcement that they would
leave GreenYille met with univer-
sal expressions of regret, in which
the sense of personal loss was
mingled with a feeling of something
like public resentment that the
community should be deprived of
a family which has so long been
prominent among its people. The
temptations to make the change
were alluring, but were finally
overborne by the deep attachment
felt by all the members of the
family to Greenyille and their
here. Mr.. Boddie consid-
ers that the business prospect and
offered by Green
vile are at least equal to that of
Memphis, and the satisfaction felt
by himself and his family in their
final decision is even greater than
that of their friends.

Foot Ball Contests to Be Played
This Afternoon.

Contests.
Gu RRENT LOCAL NOTES

Capt. Wells gave Lis men some hard
practice at Columbia Field last night. in
preparation for their fight today with the
Maryland Athletic Club. and is confident
that the team will make a strong showing
and repeat the drubbing they administered
to the Marylanders Wednesday last. Capt.
Wells will probably select about the same
team that went up against the Columbian
Varsity team, and there is every indica ton
that 1T will be successful. The Maryland
team is weak in the line of team work,
while the backs are very deficient in kick
ing. The Columbia line will be strong, ac-
cording to reports received from the prac-
tice work. and able to keep the visitors
well in check.
The Maryland Athletic Club lineup will
be as follows: Ogier, right end Jones or
Bull right guard: Cassard or Reese. CEN
ter; Goodwin. left guard; Cochran, left
tackle; Kunkle. left end; Poe, quarter
back: Cabrera, right half back; Goodrich,
left half back. and Wagner, full back.
The c. A. c. lineup will not be decided
upon till late this afternoon.
The most important game in the foot
ball world today is that to take place be-
tween the University of Pennsylvania and
the Carlisle Indians, and the outcome of
the contest will be awaited with the great
est interest by all interested in the sport.
A feature of the game will DE the pres
ence OF twenty three dusky Indian maidens
who are in attendance at the Carlisle
Training School, and who will endes vor
to cheer their brethren on to victory
against the warriors of Penn. The Car
isle team Is in great shape just at this
time, and 1t would not he surprising should
they score against Penn. On the other
hand, the Pennsylvania team has been
doing marvellous work. il the reports of the
team are to be believed, against the scrub
and Is just now fit to give battle to the
strongest team that can be found. The In
dians held the Princeton team down to Is
points, and scored touchdown and goal
on Yale, SO that some idea of PENIS
strength may be gained from the score Of
the game today.
The Yale team will meet the strong team
from the Chicago Athletic Club at New
Haven this afternoon, and the outcome of
the game is looked forward to with some
anxiety by the blues adherents. The Chi
cago team has a reputation of playing not
only hard and fast foot ball, but rough
game as well, and a defeat for the blues
just now or the Gripping of Two or three
nen would be disastrous In the extreme.
Princeton will meet Lafayette this after
noon, but there is not q great deal of in
tereSt displayed III the game. The Tigers
will not have much difficulty, although the
Lafayette team has been putting up a very
strong game in practice for the past week
The team is in fine shape, and the coaches
expect to score on the yellow ard black.

WON AS THEY PLEASED.
The COlum bians Outclassed the Rich.
mOnd College Boys

mOnd College Boys.
The Richmond College foot ball team was
outclassed in every way by the Columbian
Varsity team of this city in the game at
Richmond yesterday. and the Washington
boys won as they pleased by a score of 22
to 0. But for several bad fumbles the
varsity team would have rolled up a huge
score. and, as it was, covered themselves
with glory from start to finish.
The game was rather pretty one not
withstanding the one-sided score In the
first half Tindan made the first touchdown
in a few minutes, Lewis kicking the goal
in splendid shape. Lewis himself made the
second touchdown of the half Just before
time was called and kicked his own goal
making the score u to O. The half was
marked by good gains through the line and
around the ends, in which all the members
OF the Varsity team showed their prof.
cheney, either in getting into the interfer-
ence or making a hole in the enemys line
Richmond found Columbian's line as solid
as a rock in the second half and resorted
to kicking. But Tindall got in front of the
ball and, blocking it, took the oval and
sprinted down the field for the third touch
down. Lewis for the first time this year
missed the goal. At the kickoff following
Lewis repeated his favorite trick of CATCH
ing the bali and then sprinting through the
opposing team, and in this way made forty
five yards, lodging all but one man in the

games. and it deserves to rank as one of
the records of the year. Just as the half
was ending, with the ball on Richmond's
five-yard line. Cummings saw his oppor-
tunity and, tearing a hole in the college
line, made his way through for the last
touchdown, from which Lewis kicked goal
Score, % to O.
The ball was quickly put in play again,
and had the half been but one minute long
er the Varsity team would have made an
other touchdown, so fast was their play
Although the team played five new men,
the Varsity put up great game in every
particular. Harlan, Cummings and Loucks
were as sohd as rocks in the line, while
their offensive work in making openings
for the backs to go through was fierce and,
at the same time, heady. Green and Oys-
ter also played a fine game, while Tindalrs
gains were again a feature.
OF Lewis game only the highest praise
can be given. His exhibition of kicking,
hne-bucking and goal-kicking was the
best, according to report, that has ever
been seen on that field in Richmond. He
seemed to cover every weak point at the
same time that he played his own position,
and wherever and whenever the Richmond
team thought an opening could be made for
a gain there they always found Lewis and
there their play would generally stop.

AMONG THE WHIST PLAYERS

The match between the Atlantic and New
Jersey Auxiliaries will likely be played over
on the 9th of November. II is much re-
GREETED that the error in score was not de-
tected sooner, as 1t could have been settled
by playing five additional hands. AS it is
Baltimore or Philadelphia is likely to be
selected as the place where the match will
be played over.
Washington will have strong delegation,
and the chances for win for the Atlantic
will be much better, as Walbrook did not
send pair. and six or eight of Philadel-
phia's strong players were conspicuous for
their absence.
The Park Club of New Jersey will tonight
meet the famous Americans of Boston,
captained by Bouve (who has contributed
much to whist literature and whose play
is of the highest order). for the A. w. L.
trophy. and show the Jerseyites they are
having a little too much trophy in theirs
for a team not having a representative at
the seventh congress.
1t is much to be regretted that the strong
western teams are not in closer touch with
the teams of the east for more frequent
competitive play, and 1t was no intention
to reflect on Chicago, when the statement
was made that Philadelphia had more good
whist players than any city in the league.
The Waller brothers were masters of the
game, and Chicago has a score of strong
players, but whist is given i'll such palata-
BILE form at Philadelphia that one never
tires. Every night in the week finds new
fields for the expert to conquer. Prizes of
all sizes, shapes and materials adorn the
different members Of the Hamilton, Art
and Philadelphia clubs.
Washington is taking on new whist life.
Coteries are forming all over the city. Car
roll Institute. usually in the van with ath-
letics. has its whist nucleus, and Satur-
Gay nights find them studying out the intri-
cate plays.
The w. C. G. and W. Club has occa-
sional games of whist, and Fry and Borch-
es will not have 1t SO easy on their return
match. Tonight the c. Bi. c. winds up its
first handicap series, and Kerr is booked
for the prize. Lewis Is a close second, and
had he chosen a star player for a partner
last Saturday night he would have had a
good show for first place. 1t was the only
minus he made.
The Cranfords are getting into practice,
and will take up whist with renewed inter-

The strong polo team from Charlottes-

of Fort Myer yesterday. Many spectators

bition.
Three periods of fifteen minutes each
were played. during which time the troop
ers demonstrated their superiority at al
most every turn. The score of the game
was IA to y. half goal being given the
Virginians on account of a penalty. The Fort
Myer team consisted of Lieut. White, No.
1: Mr.. Porter. No. 2: Lieut.. Short, captain
