TO PLAY VIRGINIA TOMORROW.
A Hard Contest Before GaIIaudet
GnIipne


Gallaudet College will play one of its
hardest games of the season tomorrow
when it meets the University of Virginia at
Charlottesville Va. This game will no
doubt prove the most difficult one of the
season for the Galaudets, because of its
coming before they have had time to thor
full development.
But two games have been played thus
far this season. the first being defeat of
Il to by the Baltimore Medical College
because of superior weight and experience
and the second game an easy victory over
the Washinston College team last Satur-
day. Substantial improvement has been
made since these games in the daily lineup
at Kendall Green, generally against the
strong Gallaudet Reserves, and the varsity
players are confident of putting up a strong
game against the Virginians tomorrow.
Gallaudet has almost entirely overcome
its earlier weakness Of fumbling the ball.
Improvement has been made in defensive
work, and the interference forms better
and stronger, while the best feature the
revolving mass formation. has reached a
high state of perfection. Additional
strength is being gained by the team
through the improved kicking of Full Back
Waters, who is putting more strength into
his kicks and developing important ability
in drop-kicking goals from the field.
Fifteen players will be taken down to
Charlottesville in the morning. and the
lineup for the game will be: Center Hem
street; left guard, Wheeler; right guard,
Jones; left tackle. Mather; right tackle
Carpenter; left end Geilfuss; right end
Kurath: quarter back. Carroll: left half
back, Barham; right half back, Andree
and full back. Waters: with Morley, Cham
bers, Hewetson and Nichols as substitutes.
The game scheduled with the Maryland
Agricultural College for Saturday, Novem-
Der j. has been Cancelled, and at present
that date is an open one.

CURRENT HISTORY.
The Congregational Library to Make n
Feature of Its Newspnper Collection

The Congressional Library is now devot-
ing far more attention to the collection of
periodicals than at any time in its history
While the big storehOuse of books was
housed in Cramped quarters in the Capitol
ambitious projects of many kinds were i'm
possible to carry out, but with the extern
siye facilities for preserving printed matter
now enjoyed many plans for the enrichment
Of the library can be realized. Among the
plans that Librarian Putnam has provided
Tor IS a more complete record of occur
FENCES from day To day. To be found only in
the newspapers When the library was in
the Capitol only fifty newspapers were filed
and bound. Now this number has been in
creased until 500 periodicals of various
kinds are being received and made a mart
of the library. Nine-tenths of these period
icals are contributed by the publishers. and
an effort has been made 10 have all of them
given 10 the government free of charge
and II Is believed that some time in future
the library Will be relieved from all expense
from the purchase Of magazines and news
papers. Publishers are naturally anxious
70 nave their papers md n permanent home
among the big collection of books, and
those who contribute their publication have
the satisfaction Of knowing that they are
substantially bound and made available for
reference at all times. The periodical de-
partmenJ. under the charge of Mr.. Allan Il.
Slaus"n, has been expanded probably more
than any other department of the library
during the last two years.
The value Of newspapers as a record of
the events of the times has not been fully
recognized by libraries of the country in
the past, but there is general awakening
now 10 an appreciation OF their value. For
many years the Congressional Library kept
only the great newspapers of the country
and these papers devoted most of their
space To national and state affairs and the
doings OF the large cities. The limited
number of papers kept made II innnoSSihIa
To have this newspaper record properly
cover all sections of the country which is
no" being done, so that a most valuable
record Of events and comments on current
topics is being accumulated to an extent
that Will cause the Congressional Library
70 Tar surpass every other institution of the
kind in this department.
Within a short time a special room for
Periodicals will be opened to the public
%here all OF these 800 newspapers will be
Kept on file from day to day, and where
they may be consulted at any time

DAIRY PRODUCTS.
Preparations of the Government for
Waking II Complete Census.

NaklnS Il complete Census.
The census Office is sending out a large
number of letters and circulars intended
to perfect the work of making a complete
census of dairy products.
Hitherto the annual change of managers.
owners and directors which takes place in
so many cheese factories and creameries
has rendered practically impossible the
work of securing accurate dairy statistics.
AS this is the season during which fac
tories and creameries close up the year 8
business Director Merriam suggests that
before doing SO they prepare a detailed
statement of the quantity of milk or cream
purchased and the amount paid for 1t: the
amount of butter or cheese produced: the
amounts received from the sales of each:
the amount of capital invested in plant and
machinery and the amount paid for wages,
etc. The items should be varied properly
to fit cases where factories or creameries
are cooperative.
AS these statistics, which must cover the
year 1892 will not be gathered by the
enumerators until June /. 1900, the director
stated, in an interview today, that he
hoped factory managers or owners would
preserve the statements he is asking for
until the enumerators shall arrive to use
them, next June"

Frostburg was about to leave the field
Cumberland decided to withdraw the two

Frederick. Cumberiand's willy little captain
Brady denied striking Frederick, but this
did not save him from receiving a crushing
blow in the face from Deneen. Himmler
struck a man who struck Deneen. The
field became a wild, bowling mob and the
game was called. Bradys face was very

Ivy on the Statehouse.
The probabilities now are that the
ivy covering the statehouse will not be
pulled off as the legislature directed
that it should be. As soon as The
Record announced that Secretary Of
State Cooper intended to take the
vines down, storm of protests came
in from people who think it beautiful
and adds much to the appearance OF
the building. These protests did not
come from Columbia alone, but from
all over the state from men, women
and children in fact. The statehouse
commission was uDmoved, however
and Keeper Of the State House Hardy
was preparing to carry out orders
when the personal protests were re-
newed. Among the protestants was
Judge Ernest Gary, who does not hes
itate to say that he will issue an in
junction to stop the removal of the
ivy if application is made to him
This is sufficient and the matter oi
removal has been dropped for the
present at least. Nobody thought
that the removal of a few vines, which
in winter are certainly most unsightly
would stir up tempest.
