Famous Statesman.

William Ewart Gladstone was born in
Liverpool, England on December -,

Schoenhausen. He was learning Greek

OF the House of Commons. But before
this he had broken with oxford. His
liberal tendencies had gone so far that
he could no longer wear with patience
the cloak of the past. He threw of all
the old traditions with considerable au-
dacity and appealed to South Lanca-
shire He left the theologians and went
TO the merchants. He abandoned tho
philosophers and sought comfort with
the manufacturers. Sir John Gladstone
revived in his son. He now became
leader of the mercantile and half demo-
cratic growing party of Liberals in
Great Britain.
II was In this relation that Gladstone
was brought into contact and fierce an
tagonism with his brilliant rival, Benja-
min Disraeli. The latter was four years
Gladstones senior. In learning ana Wit
and adrotness he was greatly the supe-
,ior. The character OF Disraeli was
sprightly, versatile. penetrating as IAN
electrical fash, fertile I'm resources. with
n talent for combination and strategy
which amounted to genius. In all OF
these respects he was head above MS
rival. but the latter had more momen-
tum. and in the long run ne had the bet
ter of the battle. Fol period OF more
than twenty years theFwo leaders were
set against each other In the contention
for the premiership of Great Britain.
This position is, ii we except the presi-
dency of the United States, the greatest
political prize in the world. For this

PRIME MINISTER.
1t was IN this contest that Gladstone
rose TO a stature which has given him
a lust pre-eminence in the history OF
his age His first great reformatory'
measure was with respect to the sur
frage in Great Britain. In 1867 he es-
noused the cause of suffrage reform.
He took the ground that with respect
I'm the suffrage England should be mode
rately reyolutionized, so that a much
larger proportion of her citizens might
be admitted to the governing body. ii
his policy was not democratic, 1t was
at least liberal and tended to democracy
On this issue Gladstone rose to the ilrst
office IN the kingdom. He became Prime
Minister for the first time In December
Of 1865. 1t was at this time that Disraei
when about 10 fail and fall before th'
c,ladstonian forces, performed his grea
coup. by which he wrested the laurel

The Indians Beaten, but Kept the

NEW HAVEN, Oct 22.-Yale this af-
ternoon defeated the Carlisle Indians at
football IS to 5. The game was a SEN
satioral one and when, at the end of
the first half, the score stood only 6
to 8, it seemed alarmingly dangerous
for Yale. The five points to Carlisles
credit are dueTto Quarterback Hudson's $
marvellous skill n-dropping a goal from
the forty-fve-yard line. The trick
caused CONSERVATION in the Yale lire,
and after that the Indians played Yale
almost to standstill for a few min
utes. The Carlisle rush line seemed too
much for Yale, but the reason of this
became apparent when, in the second
half, after Yale had changed signals,
the Indians found the line nearly al
ways impregnable. For Yale, Coy,
Brown and Cullen played an excellent
game, and under McBride's powerful
long kicks may be said to have done
the lions share of the work. Coach
Butterworth, who was on the side lines,
expressed the greatest astonishment
when Mcbride repeatedly lined out six
ty and sixty-five-yard punts.
The noticeable difference In the play
ing of the two elevens may be summed
up in that Yale had not the dash and
quickness Of the Indians. Ya1es line
seemed worn out at times on the ag-
gressive and for short period were no
match on the defensive ether. The In
dians were better and surer tackles
also, and their powerful plunges be-
hind mass plays against Capt. Cham
ber1ain and Marshall were wonderful

Points ON COrneIl-Day's Games.

NEW YORK, Oct 22-Some definite
Idea as to the relative strength of the
big Eastern football eleVens and also
as to the strength of Western and
Eastern teams was furnished by the
scores In some of the games today. For
the first time 1t is possible to compare
Yale with her old time rival, Princeton.
Although at this period, when the
teams are all rapidly rounding into
form, good deal must be allowed for
the Improvement possible in the two
weeks that have elapsed since Cornell
defeated the Carlisle Indians, yet the
fact that Yale today was unable to
Improve to any extent Corneu's score
over the redskins and that Princeton
shut Cornell out, after a desperate bat
tie, IT is true. apparently shows the
I1gers to be the stronger at present.
The margin is small, but it is in Prince
toms favor nevertheless.
The COrnel team, as at present made
up, is undoubtedly the fastest that has
ever been sent out from that college,
and its future games will be watched
with interest and not little apprehen-
sion by Yale and Harvard partisans.
Pennsylvania in its game with Lafay-
cite hardly showed its real strength,
Notwithstanding the large score it ran
up on the little college that lowered
Pennsylvania colors two years ago.
Mud, ankle deep, is not conducive to

that the score would have been even

game, and viii not play again this sea
son in al probability. He was taken
to the West hotel, where Dr. Higbee
was summoned 10 his aid, and was aft
eTv ards removed to his home.
The game was a much better one
than that with GrinnelI, and by rights
should have been a shut out for both
sides, but a lucky run by Edison,
Ames' halfback, decided the battle. In
the line Ames was stronger, While
Minnesota had considerable advantage
in kicking. In weigh Minnesota ap-
peared to have an advantage Of at
least ten pounds per man, but this may
be a little too strong. AmeS has al
ways won its games by weight, but
this year took the Minnesota game by
superior playing. 1t played good inter-
ference. and did considerable blocking.
The day was in all respects satisfac-
tory For the sport, not too cold for the
comfort of enthusiastic rooters and just
right for the teams. Despite the out
come Of last weeks efforts, a large
sized crowd Of university people were
out TO witness the game.
WON THE TOSS.
Minnesota won the toss and took the
south goal. The wind was blowing
across the field and gave no advantage
to either side. Ames kicked off to
Cole, who made fifteen yards. Otte
went around the right end for a gain
Of ten yards. He repeated the move
and made twenty. George tried the
left end twice and made four and five
yard gains. Nicoulin was good for four,
but Otte failed to advance. George
went through left tackle for four. Ames
no "a
took the ball and went ten yards
around right end. George made seven,
and Nicoulin four. Smith made three,
and George two Minnesota lost on
downs.
1t was Ames' ball on her twenty-yard
lire. Ames gained seventeen yards
around her left end. She could not
advance and kicked on the third down
Shepley caught the ball and carried it
back five yards. Shepley kicked to
Ames' ten-yard line, where Ames
caught the ball. Scandrett was down
the field and stopped the Ames man
where he caught the ball. Ames tried
the Minnesota line for gains of five,
fifteen and four yards. Ames made
two yards around right end. On the
third down Ames kicked. Shepley
caught the ball but was downed Otte
made three and Nicoulin four yards
Otte was tried again. By excellent in
terference he made fifteen yards.
This was perhaps the best exhibition
of team play given by the Minnesota
