HARVARD DEFEATS YALE.
The Sons of ELI Fell Before the Boys
of Cambridge.

New Haven, Conn.,, Nov. 20.--Harvard
defeated Yale yesterday afternoon, II to
0, winning a glorious football victory in
clean, fast game, Astounding in brilliant
plays. The Harvard eleven showed them
selves master of the game, excelling in
every department and playing football
well nigh marvellous under such miserable
weather conditions. Every point was made
by straightforward, open tactics, and no
fuke or luck contributed in any way to
the scoring. Harvard's great speed of
play, power and concentration of attack,
splendid physical condition and superior
kicking won the game for her easily.
The Yale players fought with stolid
pluck. AT the end they rallied grandly
out of sheer desperation and finished
strong
After the game the Harvard band
marched about the gridiron, followed by
hundreds of Harvard men. At the con-
clusion of the triumphal march the band
was surrounded by several thousand
graduates and undergraduates. all with
their lady friends, all uncovered and with
all the enthusiasm for victory over Yale
for the second time since 1885, the throng
burst forth in the refrain "Fair Harvard"

CURIOUS Ap1NG OF ROYALTY.
Instances of Society Initiating the
Limps of Crippled Princes.

The Alexandra limp became the fash
ion in 1874. In that year the princess OF
Wales was afflicted with a lameness of
one OF her knees. Only slight limp was
the result, but this limp was caught up
and initiated by the ladies of the court.

women of England. Not few. of the
women of America also aped the fashion.
says Mainly About People.
The long trains, which were so popular
and so offensive a feature of the fash
ions of the early seventies, grew out OF
the fact that Queen Victoria, owing to a
painful swelling, had been obliged to
wear bandages on her foot. To conceal
the bandages, she heightened her skirts.
Her dutiful subjects straightway length
eneG their skirts also. and in a literal
sense they went through the streets car
rving dust and garbage and potential dis
ease into parlors and drawing-rooms.
History is full of similar anecdotes.
Alexander the Great had twist in his
neck. 1t was therefore fashionable for
everyone in that nenarch's court to carry
his neck awry. One day Francis /. of
France was struck on the chin with
piece of tile. To hide the resultant scar
he allowed his beard to grow. His cour-
tiers all followed his example. Thus
boards came back into fashion. after hav-
ing been out for nearly century. Charles
VII. of France had pair of ill-made legs.
He wore long coat to conceal them. Re-
suit, everybody else wore long coats. The
peruke is said to be due to the misfor-
tune of Philip, duke of Burgundy. His
hair fell out, and his physicians advised
him to cover his hair with artificial hair,
which he did, and thus set the fashion.
During the reign of George Ill, his
royal highness the duke of York had u
duel with Colonel LennoX. and the
worthy colonel succeeded in shooting
away one of the dukes curls. Hence it
became the correct thing to wear a curl
on one side of the temple only. When
Fox, the first of Quakers, was sitting in
church and the preacher said anything
which he didn't like, he moved solemnly,
put on his hat. and kept it on until the
disagreeable remarks concluded. Hence
arose the Quaker custom of wearing hats
in church.

Change IN SPA|N'S DYNASTY
DON CARLOS IS POSSIBLE.
There II q RumOr That the Little
King May Abdicate and That Don

The FiHpinos I'm Europe Are Much
Disturbed.

London, Nov 2l-A curious report in
regard to Spain's future government is
current in diplomatic circles, which, from
its source. is entitled to weight. It is
that there will be a change of dynasty,
but peaceful change. The queen regent
is said to be convinced of the hopeless
ness of her sons reign and has, upon the
advice OF the emperor of Austria, decided
that after the peace treaty is signed at
Paris to quit Spain with her family, and
Don Carlos will be proclaimed king. Ev-
erything is reported to be already ar
ranged, and the army and the clergy are
alleged to be agreeable to the change.
According to the program, Don Carlos, so
soon as things are running smoothly, will
abdicate in favor of his son. Don jaime

SPAIN ENDS NEGOTIATIONS
A RUMORED BREAK IN PARIS
The American Peace Commission De-
clared That the United states
Would Keep the Philippines ana
Pay Spain Twenty Millions OF
Dollars.

Paris, Nov. 22-The president OF the
Spanish peace commission, Montero hlos'
has refused to continue negotiations.
The Spanish and American peace com
missions met in joint session at O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. The Americans de-
clared they must have the entire Philip
pine archipelago, and for treaty cessioh
of the islands the Americans rendered 10
Spain $2OOOO,OOO. 1t was further de-
clared it is the purpose of the United
States to maintain the Philippine islands
as an "open door" to the worlds COM

proposes mutual REIMBURSEMENT OF all
claims for indemnity, national or person.
al, subsequent to the outbreak of the last
Cuban instruction. November % Is fixed
as the date on which the United States
commission desired definite response to
today's propositions and all other sub
iects at issue here. 1t is also declared the
United States desires to treat on religious
freedom in the Caroline islands as agreed
upon between the United States and SPAN
in 1856, and also in the acquisition OF one
of the Caroline islands for an American
naval station, and of cable landing rights
at other places in Spanish jurisdiction,
and the revival of the certain Spanish
American treaty al heretofore in force.
The Americans also refuse to arbitrate
article of the peace protocol bearing
upon the future disposition and control OF
the Philippine islands. The meeting was
then adjourned until Wednesday.
Cabinet Minister Talks.
Washington, Nov. pa member OF
the cabinet, in an interview yesterday
afternoon, Immediately after the an
nouncement of the breaking off of peace
negotiations, made the following state
ment as to the effect of the discontinue
ton of negotiations:
''The action of the Spanish commission
ers will not affect the purpose of the
American government. Our government
will still assert precisely what it has
claimed, and it will proceed to carry these
claims into execution. L don't believe
there will be any concession on one, and
that is from the American side, nor actual
resistance on the other. 1t will simply
remain for the American government to
hold what it has proposed to hold, for it
is NV practically in possession, and all
that remains is to make this possession
an actual fact. While the Spanish gov
eminent declined to acquiesce, it can not
interpose any obstacle, and the only re-
suit will be it will be compelled later to
recognize what it refuses to acquiesce in
at present.
81 say this on the assumption that the
notification given means really rupture
of negotiations, and not simply move
ment to take them up in a new way. One
significant effect is that this action now
relieves this government of the whole
question of compensation for the Philip
pines"

Shorter Hours,

indianapolis, Nov. 22.-Beginning yes
terday, and continuing for year, union
printers, pressmen and bookbinders
throughout the country will work nine
hours and half day. The reduction in
the hours of labor is not in itself of great
consequence, for in many cities these
trades work but nine hours day, but
theoretically the change is regarded in Ia
Dor and industrial circles as one of great
moment, as being the initiative step in the
struggle of organized labor for universal
eight hour day.

President asked him 10 do so. He said
that no did not care either way and would
