Princeton Defeats Cornell

Princeton, N. J., October 22-In an ex- citing game of foot ball this afternoon Princeton won from Cornell to 0. The teams were almost evenly matched and the battle waged from one side of the field to the other during the early part of the game, neither team seeming to have the advantage. At first Cornell started off with a rush. but after the Tigers had learned the Cornell plays the ball changed hands and was carried steadily down the field for the only touchdown of the game
 In the second half Cornell played the same sturdy bull dog game, but the Tigers had the smell of blood and were not to- be outplayed. .,.l

Yale Defeats Carlisle


 New Haven, Conn.,, October 22.-Yale this afternoon defeated the Carlisle Indians at football, to 5. The game was a isensa- tional one and at the end of the first half when the score stood only to 5, it seemed aarmingly dangerous for Yale. The five points to Carlisle's credit are due to Quar- -terback Hudson's marvellous skill In dropping goal from the forty-five yard line. The trick caused consternation In the Yale lin and the Indians played Yale alnost to a standstill for few minutes. Tue Gar lisle rush line seemed too much for Yale. but the reason for this became apparent when in the second half, after a4e had changed signals, the Indians found the line nearly always impregnable For Yale, Goy Brown, Mcbride and Cutten played an ex- eellent game.

WALSH CREEK DISCOVERIES.
1T IS Likely TO BE RICH
DIGGING.
Has a Great Advantage Because
1t Will be Summer
Diggings.

SEATTLE (Wash.), March 20.-W.
j. Wallace of Saginaw, Mich, arrived
IN the city early this morning on the
steamer Del Norte, having come di
rect from the new discoveries on Walsh
Creek and only d month from Daw-
son. Wallace is the first man to bring
reports from Walsh Creek from per-
sonal observation. lie spent several
days IL the creek, and, with the other
members of his party, made locations
They first tried the surface gravel, and
in every instance found coarse gold.
Their last location was No. 1S0. the
entire creek being located for over six
miles from its mouth.
That Walsh Creek is to be a prom
inent gold diggings is shown by the
founding Of town at the mouth of the
creek. 1t is to be known as Central
City, and townsite was being stated
cut when Wallace left there Central
City will have one CT the best sites of
the towns along the Yukon, as the land
near the mouth of the river is very
suitable
Walsh Creek, a few miles below the
mouth of the Big Salmon, is the latest
discovery of note in the interior" said
Mr. Wallace. Although the discovery
claim was located but few weeks
ago, lS5 claims had been staked and
recorded up to the time we left. Con-
siderable prospecting has been done on
the claims first located, and the indi-
cations are excellent. Gold is found
from the surface down, and although
the frozen earth has been penetra ted
but "a few feet, pans run in the neigh
borhood of 20 cents. The creek will be
located in short time.
We met a great many people going
down the river as we came up. They
were those who had been Wintering at
Lake Bennett. Hearing of the dis
covery, they were Fastening down the
river over the ice. a surveyor is work
ing on the creek and many of the
claims have been surveyed. One of the
best features about Walsh Creek is
that it is a summer diggings Fer this
reason very little actual work will be
done until summer.
Very few people will come out from
Dawson from this time on until after
the spring cleanup. This will be made
in July and will DE a. record breaker.
The frequent stampedes from DaW-
son to the new creeks is a remarkable
feature of this Klondike business. 1t is
surprising the number of times that
men will go into a headlong rush to
some new creek. There are several
hundred men around the camp who do
nothing else but go out on rainbow
chases. They seldom get anything, but
are just as eager to strap on light
outfit ard go out on another mad run.
The way these stampedes are started
is interesting. A man will come into
camp from some unknown or unheard
of creek. He makes a location at the
commissioners office, and then tells
around the saloons that he found gold
on the creek on question which ran
a dollar or SO to the pan. This is all
that is necessary. The crowd of SIAM
peders ask directions and are off like

EAT WHEN YOU'RE HUNGRY.
Dyspeptics Need Not Abstain From

Here's a little verse that's going the

the impression that there is merit in
it. But read it:
The vulture eats between his meals,
And that's the reason why
He very, very seldom feels
AS well as you and |.
His eye is dull, his head is bald,
His neck is growing thinner;

given by no less an authority than the
late DR. Brown Sequard of Paris:
"A distinguished American went to
see him about twenty-five or thirty
years ago. This man was a sufferer,
and had been for years. Dyspepsia was
the ailment After the doctor heard
the story he said
You'll think I'm crazy when / tell

in addition, l want you to eat a little

apple, an orange, something to stay

ers or bowl of soup, just enough to
give the stomach a little work while

But, said the invalid, is there
anything to abstain from, any food

Nothing at all. The great fault is
in loading the stomach to its utmost

letting the walls of the stomach shrink

The Sleigh in Which Napoleon Es-
caped From Russia.

Mrs. Bruno Gansel, living at ttfty-
fifth street and Jackson avenue, has
chopped to pieces the sleigh in which
the Emperor Napoleon rode in lSl2,
while making his escape from Russia
after his march to Moscow. Mrs.
Gansel said she was tired of seeing

1t had been the property of her hus-
band for fifty years and came down
from Mr. GansePs grandfather.
A parchment, certificated, dated
April I. 1916, and bearing the sigma

gomaster of Heilstadt, Silesia, reads:
This is to certify that the sleigh ex-

a far-away island in mid-ocean for
safe-keeping, made good his escape
from the grim Cossack and the more
savage winter of Russia in 1912.
