an ally whose moral support and hearty
sympathy are of the utmost value. He
will be welcomed by the thunders of a
fleet and the greetings of members of the
royal family and during his stay at
Windsor there will be unique functions
of exceptional interest. The Importance
OF this visit increases every day with the
evident desire of the royal family to en-
phasze it, The emperor will be enter

One OF the chief functions of English
royalty is to set the style in national
policy. German fashion and diplomacy
Will now have the high authority of the
court and royal family and the masses
and classes are expected to take their
cue and transform the emperor not per-
maps into an heroic sovereign like either
his father or his grandfather, but GER

Today'S Football Games.

New York Nov. 11.--LThis will be an
other highly interesting afternoon on
the gridiron field, though not marked
by such important games as We're play
ed last Saturday. There are, however,
some contests to-day that will draw forth
immense crowds. The chief of these,
perhaps. is the Princeton game against
the Carlisle Indians at Manhattan filled
| in this city. The Carlisle Indians have
J an extremely formidable aggregat ton
/ They beat the Quakers handily few
| weeks ago and scored II points against
the hitherto invincible Harvard team.
They are said to be in excellent condition
and expect to play Princeton an exceed
! ingly close game With even a secret hope
of winning out. Experts look for a
Princeton victory, even though it may
be by narrow margin. 1t has been
noted in past years that the Carlisle In
dians generally do not close the season
with quite the strength that marks their
, mid-season games. This will certainly
be as hard fought a contest as is to be
witnessed in New York this season.
Another game of great interest is that
between the University of Pennsylvania
and the University Of Michigan at Phil
duelpIid. lue Ann AEDOf eleNen Is
pretty near the top of the western teams
and it's coach declares that unless the
Quakers play much better than they did
| at Chicago two weeks ago these Michi-
gan men are going to win victory.
Any games between representative uni
versities OF the east and west are al
ways full of interest. The Quakefs have
been continuing their poor work all the
week and they have repeatedly allowed
| themselves to be bested in the after
Moons practice. it remains to be seen

| afternoon or remain in their present
| state of dependency.

games on their hands, Harvard lining
