PARIS. November 2i.-Tho Spanish conn
missioners at noon to-day had no. hxed
upon the day to submit their final an
swer to the American propositions, but ic
is deemed most likely that Saturday VIII
be the day appointed. The opinion gains
ground that the Spaniards will accept ths
proposals of the United States. A signii-
cant indication OF this view OF the stua-
ton was a remark dropped by senior
Abarzuza OF the Spanish Commission
to-day. that they expect to remain hera
about a fortnight longer.
The secretary Of the Spanish Commis-
sion. Senor Ojeda, said to-day that in-
structions from Madrid were not SUNS
ciently matured to enable them 90 ap-
point the next meeting.

SOME DESPERATE RUSHING.
Graves kicked 1t out at the 2J-yaed line,
and Martin catching 1t. ran outside Nir-
gfnia's 4O-yard line. Collier made 2 yards
through the centre; Elsom punted. and
Rogers was toppled over after "a gam
of 10 yards. Graves made slight gains
over left and right tackle, respectively,
and then kicked off the reel. and the ball
went to Virginia. There was some des-
perate rushing, and North Carolina got
the ball again on a foul. For the Tar
heels, Rogers gained a yard by double
pass. McRae, much TO his surprise, man
aged to slip by Estes for yards, and
then ne fumbled the ball. while Gregory
seized ii and carried it yards further
up the field. A fake pass gained yards,
and on the next play Koehler went round
Virginia's left tackle for rib Of the
gridiron, though his shoulder suffered Sc
yerely on the journey. and he was COM
PEELED to retire, Howell taking his place
at right half-back.

blew. when he walked gingerly into the
game again. Griffin was off side on the
next play, and the ball went to North
Carolina.
TARHEELS BECOME AGGRESSIVE.
So far the game had been very even,
and North Carolina had been on the de-
| fensive, but the Tarhees now began To
play as though their lives depended on
the game. They had become thoroughly
warmed up. Howell the new conner, was
showing up spendidly, and he was very
| frequently used. He made the first stal
| play of the game, dashing round Nir

smashed through left tackle again for a
slight gain Howell started in to rush
things, but he was cleverly tackled by
Moore. and failed to gain. The ball went
to Virginia on down, and Elsom punted
up the field for thirty-fve yards. Rogers
fiimbled bat managed to retrieve hve
yards.
HOWELL, MAKES A FINE RUN.
The ball was passed to Howell. and he
was off like a fash round that same
old left end. and as he sped down the
field on his 25-yard run, the crowd broke
into a thunderous roar. He was brought
to earth at last by Collier. Copeland
followed this up with a gain of two yards,
and then the whistle blew the end OF the
first half.
when the teams went off the field
everybody began to discuss the game
and It was an opinion pretty generally
expressed that the outlook was decidedly
blue for Virginia.
"They've got the weight but you're bet

said an old graduate of North Carolina
who has played many a time on the
Richmond gridiron, and the Carolina men
indeed. looked anything but worn out as
n result Of their experiences.
The adherents of Virginia, on the Other
hand. were decidedly gloomy. The team
was not playing with that old-time snaT
and ginger that had marked it heretofore
and they were not afraid to admit thai

Howell dashed across the gridiron to ma

was almost within the shadow Of the goal

but he never wavered. Though breathless
and ready to drop, he darted beneath the
goal posts and fell headlong upon the
ball.
SETS THE CROWD WILD.
II was such an unexpected and sensa-
tional touchdown that the crowd was al
most stunned. When it was fully real

and women kept it up for some minutes,
and even the wearers Of the Orange and
Blue were not slow to give honor where

Mr. Clem Wright, an old University

Gordon Of police and rushed across the
ground to embrace the hero. Mr.. Wright
tips the scales at 225 pounds, but his en-
thusiasm was such that his flight across
the gridiron was almost as sensational
as Howelrs had been.
There was a fresh outburst of JOY when
Gregory converted the touchdown into a

The Second HaIs Exciting.

The teams were on again after an in
terval Of ten minutes. There were no
changes in the Carolinian ranks, but
Shibley was substituted for Griffin at half
back for Virginia. North Carolina had
the ball and Howell kicked off. Elsom
caught the ball and went fifteen yards.
He punted up the field. Graves caught
the ball. but was downed in his tracks
by Summersgill. Copeland and McRae
bucked the centre 10 no purpose. and
Jones's next duty was 10 punt Shibley
got the ball, and rushed through a crowd

Virginia crowd wild with JOY. Copeland

OUR COUNTY TICRET..

The ticket placed in nonaina-
tion by the republicans of Tur-
ner Co. is one which every repub-
lican can honestly and concien-
tiously support, feeling while do
ing so that he is one working for
the best interest of the county
and assisting in placing in the
various offices men who will faith
fully perform their duties as SER
wants of the people.
The Legislative ticket is an ex-
ceptionally strong one and is
composed of men against whom
not one word can be said as to
their character or as to their
faithfully performing every duty
which has fallen to them during
their long residence in this
county.
Turner County herald. (Hurley, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-19??, 1898-10-06

corruption, which is not here as
serted. The actual responsibility
for omissions or neglect is with
the quartermaster general, the
surgeon general, the chief of
ordnance, and other life officials.
They must bear it in full meas
ure in the pending Investigation.
and we may be sure will ably de-
fend themselves, but the secre-
tary will have but little to bear.
In the navy department the case
IS different. The bureau chiefs
are selected from naval officers
and hold their places but four
years, and the president can re-
move them at pleasure. The
secretary, therefore has greater
power and responsibility, and
there has been no complaint.
The navy department record is
magnificent,
The following extract from a
report to the department of state
by A. Birmingham johnson, U.
S. consul at Annoy, China, is
specially commended to those
who are fond of saying that we
get only inferior grades of tea in
this country: Americans NAV
be surprised to hear it generally
conceded among the experts that
there is no country in the world
where a finer cup of tea can be
secured than in the first-class ho-
tells of America, and the private
houses where an effort is made to
properly prepare it."
In view of the fact that Senator
Plat was recently IN conference
with President Mckinley, the
f1at-footed declaration of the plat
form adopted by the New York
republican state convention, in
favor of the retention of the
Philippine Islands by this govern
ment, the belief that our peace
commissioners were instructed to
stand out for the entire Philip
pine group has been considerably
strengthened. 1t is argued that
the plank would not have been
placed in the platform if the
president had not given his CON
sent and that his consent would
not have been given had the plank
misrepresented the policy of the
administration.

The Milwaukee railroad Co. is
very unfortunate in having a
prominent republican politician
for it's attorney within the state.
Not but what Mr.. Kittridge may
be the peer of the attorneys of the
other railroad systems, which en-
braces such men as y. s.: G..
Cherry, chairman of the free sill
yer republican committee; Jessie
Boyce, chairman of the Mime
haha county free silver committee;
C. Bailey, chairman of the Mime
haha county democratic commit
tee, and judge Palmer, candidate
for attorney general on the three
cornered ticket. The fact re-
mains, however, that for some
reason the Milwaukee road is
singled out as the one that must
stand the brunt of the legal
battle. Can it be that the popu-
list railroad commissioners are
making their fight in this manner
so as to give their campaign
speakers an opportunity to hold
the republican party up to the.
voters as tool Of the corpora
tions because one of their leaders
is an attorney for corporation,
while Messrs, Cherry, Boyce,
Bailey and Palmer, attorneys for
other roads, can remain in the
background until this campaign
is over? If such is the case it
would be wisdom on the part of
the Milwaukee Co. to fire Mr..
Kittridge and secure a pop attor-
ney to look after its affairs.

a Parable.

Sometimes the newspaper Office is,
and for the best of reasons, the birth
place Of timely parallels. The follow
ing taken from an exchange, is just at
the present time splendidly adapted to
the season and bears a moral we'll
worth the conf sderation of every
patron and friend:
Once a farmer had one thousand
eight hundred bushels of wheat which.
he sold not to a single grain merchant,
but to one thousand eight hundred
different dealers, a bushel EACH A
few OF them paid in cash, but by far
the greater number said twas not con
venient then, would pay later. A few
months passed, and the mans bank
account ran low "How is this?n He
said. My one thousand eight hun
dred bushels of wheat should have
kept me in aff1uence until another
crop is raised; but I have parted with
the grain and haye instead only a
vast number of accounts so small and
scattered that cannot get around and
collect them fast enough to pay expen-
ses." So he posted up public notice
and asked all those who owed him to
pay quickly. But few came. The rest
said: mine is only small matter.
and will go and pay one of these
days, f" forgetting that though each ac-
count was very small when all were put
together, they meant large sum to
the man.
Things went on thus: the man got to
feel so badly that he fell out of bed and
awoke, and running to his granary,
found his one thousand eight hundred
bushels of grain still safe there. He
had only been dreaming and hadn't
sold his wheat at all.
Moral-The next day the man went
to the publisher of his paper and said:
Here, sir, is the pay for my paper,
and when next years subscription is
due you can depend on me paying it
promptly. stood in the position OF
an editor last night, and know how it
feels to haye ones honestly earned
money scattered all over the country
in small accounts. ("

extravaganza this year.
