4 SN4PPY PRACTICE.
Good Work by the Yale University
 Eleven Yesterday.

Eleven Yesterday.
 Practice at Yale field by the univer- sity squad yesterday was characterized with considerably more snap than any day this week, but the playing was far from championship form or even the kind needed in a game such as the one with West Point tomorrow should be. The chilly condition of the atmosphere caused the players to move around quite lively and this caused much of the spirit manifest. Chadwick '97 and F. w. Wallace again assisted in the coaching. Two halves were played and several men who have been laid up were given some work. Allen played tackle and Marvin half back part of the time. The other backs were Gill more, Dupee, Harvey and Burdick, Winter and Sullivan were both tried at quarter back, and the latter tried sev- eral goals from the field, but was not so successful as on Wednesday. Tom linson and Hall both played center for the university and the latter did par ticularly well. He has played a strong game all week and has shown much improvement. He is now probably sec- ond to Cutten as regards center, and with more coaching will be able to play the position with credit. Brown and Marshall were again at guard while Richards played right tackle in place of Captain Chamberlain, who is still suffering from the injury received in the Brown game, and made worse in the ndian game. It cannot be positive ly stated whether he will play to-mor- row or not. Coy and Hubbell played ends. The university team scored three times on the college, each touchdown being made by successive plunges through the line and around the end runs. Benjamin, Dudley, Townshend, and Corwin were out but did not par ticipate in the practice.

FOURTH WARD POLLING PLACE.
Reported Dissatisfaction With the se-

Reported Dissatisfaction With the &c.,
 lection Denied.
 In regard to the report published in an afternoon paper yesterday to the eff feet that the selection of No. 52 Cedar street as the polling place for the Fourth ward had aroused considerable indignation in that ward, a prominent Fourth ward republican last night said:
 "The statement that there was great dissatisfaction in the Fourth ward on account of the selection of 52 Cedar street as polling place seems to be without much foundation. The place selected has been used for the past three elections and has given good sat- isfaction. It is well lighted and heat ed and centrally located. The reason for the change from Havey's stable in the first place was because of there being no way to heat it. The election officials suffered severely from the cold at the November election; it was a very unsuitable place and the change was a great improvement, which the commissioners have seen fit to con- tinue"

AMUSING PREDICAMENT.

Members of the Local Elks Prisoners in
 an Elevator.
 About twenty persons, mostly mem bers of the New Haven lodge of Elks, had a rather unusual experience last night. They left their lodge hall on the fifth floor of the Insurance building and started down. The elevator refus- ed to stop at the first floor and the car went through to the basement. All efforts to cause the elevator to ascend were fruitless and Murphy, the elevator conductor, was compelled to force his way out of the grating at the top of the car and hunt up the watchman or the building before the party could be released from their plight. The pre- dicament afforded much amusement to all concerned and the single men want ed to know how the married men would explain why they were so late in re- turning from the lodge.

GOLF.

Harvard Wins the Intercollegiate
 Championship,
 New York, Oct, 27.-Harvard's team of golfers won the intercollegiate cham pionship from the representatives of Yale at the Ardsley Golf clubs links this afternoon by a score of 16 to {. These teams, having beaten their oppo- nents from Princeton and Columbia in the opening days play, met this morn ing for the final round, but when that was finished both sides were equal with scores of II each. There was some dis cussion as to how the tie should be played off.
 Harvard claimed that both sides should go over the entire coure of IS holes again, while Yale maintained that they ought to play only one hole in or der to decide the championship. Finally it was agreed to let the scores made in the medal play round for the individual championship, to be played later in tlle day, decide the relative merits of the teams.
 In the first part of the morning round Yale had decidedly the better of the game, as Barnes and Reid had beaten Choate and Clark, but this lead was soon overcome when Hubbard of liar ward came in nine holes up on Hinkle, and Averill had two up on Hevemeyer. The next pair were W. B. Smith 3f Yale and Curtis of Harvard with the f,rmer one up over the present holder of the individual collegiate honors. Then came Robertson and Cutting. and on these two was centered the greatest interest. Robertson at the eighteenth hole was one up, and if he won the last hole Yale would win the championship, but the Yale man missed a short put of about eighteen inches and the hole was halved in seven. Twenty-four players started in the medal play round for the individ- ual championship in the afternoon, but only eighteen of them turned in cars and of these eight qualified for the first and semi-fnal rounds at match play tomorrow, with scores of 91 and under Cornelius Fellows of Columbia headed the list with S3 strokes and J. Stuart of Princeton came next With S7. Murphy of Princeton and Reid of Yale had SS each. Smith of Yale was fifth with SG and the other three, Cutting and Choate of Harvard and Dixon of Columbia, had 91 each.
 These eight will play tomorrow in the first and semi-1nal rounds at IS holes match play, and the two surviv- ors will decide the individual champi- onship on Saturday by playink twice over the 18-hole course. The drawing for pairs for to-morrow's games result a Tn11nwG. Vol Cornelius Fellows, Columbia; ". B. Cutting, Harvard, vs. c. H. Murphy, Princeton; W. H. Dixon, Columbia, vs. J. H. Choate, Harvard snd J. Reid, Yale, vs. Stuart, Princeton.

 Dr. E. c. Ross, who gave the word, allowed very little scoring. The judges were Frederick s. Oakes, John S. Grif- fin and Robert Meachen. The prizes won by the horses were donated by the merchants of the city. An expensive lamp won by Leo Wilkes was contrib uted by Brown & Durham.

 One of the special attractions which pleased the horsemen and other specta- tors was the exhibition of the pacing stallion Dan O., 2:07A; owned by J. H. Bronson of this city. The horse is dark bay in. color, stands about fourteen and one-half hands high and weighs about eight hundred pounds. He has won several stake races in fast company since he was purchased by MT. Bronson late this season.
 During the afternoon N w. Hubinger gave his bay trotter Belle J., 2:11, sev- eral easy miles, after which he drove her fast mile and attempted to beat the track record-2:17-for trotters. The fast mare was accompanied by a run ming horse to saddle as pace-maker. The mile was trotted in 2:191a, which was regarded as fast for the slow con- dttion of the track.
