in Anaconda's NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

in doubt. technical point in the game
being left to the chairman of the
rules committee, from whom an an
swer has not yet been received. Other
authorities from the big universities
of the East have been heard from,
however and they have unanimously
agreed that it is Anaconda's game.
Last evening a new man, Chadwick,
was out in an old Yale uniform. and
il is believed he will be valuable ad-
dition to the team.
Many of the big universities are now
represented in the Anaconda team,
and when the boys line up for practice
the colors of such notables as Cornell,
Yale, Lafayette, Michigan and Nebras-
ka make it look like an all-America
team. Storey is back in his old po-
sition at right half and is playing in
his usual form.
Butte. too, has been considerably
strengthened since the last game. Lieu
tenant, or, as he is better known
Snake King, is back from the Philip
pines and has been mustered into the
football service. Homer Richards anG
Mcpherson also are two old players
who returned with the volunteers
and will strengthen the Butte lineup
Both cities will have the strongesI
teams that ever represented them anC
Anaconda is very fortunate in being
able to see such royal battle between
these knights of the gridiron.

Possible Danger to Brooklyn Bridge.

Inasmuch as the electrolysis, which,
according to experts, is causing rapid
deterioration in some of the New York
elevated railroad structures, comes
supposedly from a current carried over
the Brooklyn bridge, it is feared the
bridge itself may be undergoing dam
age from the same cause. The places
where electrolysis would be the most
dangerous to the structure are at the
anchors of the cables, which, being
covered with masonry, cannot be in
spected. If. however, the moisture has
been excluded there is no danger of
electrolysis and in any event it is sup
posed that any weakening of the bridge
sufficient to cause it to give way would
be preceded by ample warning.

was bent, but l had this money and
didn't mind takin chance. l hadn't
