Worcester Boys Give

The Worcester high school showed

Academy eleven lowered above the
high school boys. DAILY kicked off, and
by line plays in which overwhelming
weight counted the Dean Academy
worked the ball to the high school 35-
yard line. The E\gh school boys braced
and by gritty work secured the ball on
downs. By a succession of steady gains
in which Dowd figured conspicuously,
the ball was placed for a scrimmage on
Deans 5-yard line. Dowd, braced by
splendid interference went through a
hole between tackle and guard, opened
by Capt. Daily and Cahill, for a touch
down.
Dean never got the ball far enough
into the high school territory after that
to endanger the goal, and the high

Alonzo r. Wells is in the ward rep
resentative fight in earnest, and his
friends say will give James Hunt the
battle of his life.
Mr.. Wells and his constituents started
out bright and early yesterday morn

ming had fallen, were still at work.
They claim that Mr.. Wells friends
in the ward, together with the men
pledged to vote for George w. B. Sis
son. will form a solid delegation in the
caucuses that will be hard to over
come The work is being pushed hard
to make up for lost time, and there is
bare possibility that something in
the way of furthering the canvass may

Although never a candidate for office,
Mr. Wells has always been identified
with the republican party and taken an
active interest in it's welfare He re-
tired from business some time ago, and
has plenty of time and inclination to
devote TO the work. Mr.. Wells is a
Grand Army man, and enlisted in the
Tenth New Hampshire regiment at the

FEW BIRDS KILLED.
The First Week of the Hunting Sea-
son Ends.

The First Week of the Hunting Sea-
son Ends.
The opening week of the hunting sea-
son has not witnessed a wholesale
slaughter Of birds, principally because
hunting has been hard, uphill work,
with too little reward to satisfy the
average sportsman. The dense under
growth and the thickness of the foliage
makes killing birds difficult, and only
the crack brush shots got enough com
pensation for their efforts. The ordln-
airy run of hunters were satisfied with
the opening days sport, and have not
been out since. Hunting is more weal1-
some this season than it has been for
several seasons on account of the dead
branches which heset the path of a gun
ner. The ice storms of last winter
knocked down thousands of branches.
which compel constant stopping, and
adds to the fatigue of a long tramp
through the covers.
Today will be an off day with the
hunters. Game wardens have started
a buzz about Sunday hunting, but there
won't be enough to pay for talking
about it. There are not enough hunters
out of week day to compensate game
wardens for the trouble of trampinc
through the woods, to say nothing Of
Sunday shooting.

Durham ARRIVES.
He Satisfied With His Chance;
Against Rogers.

He S Satisfied With His Chances
Against Rogers.
Edward Durham who is to row a
three-mile match race with Ras Rogers
at the lake, Wednesday, for $500 side,
arrived in this city yesterday after
noon. He was not accompanied by
either trainers or hackers. He had his
new Frank Ruddock boat with him,
and at once repaired to the lake, where
he went for a spin to get acquainted
with the course. His boat was housed
at Allie Coburns boat house and will
remain there while he is at the lake.
When seen by The Spy man last eve
ming, he said that he was confident of
winning, though he was not oyer-con-
fident. He said that he would win,
but expressed himself as not being
dead sure" that re would. When asked
by The Spy man as to whether he
would take on the Ten Eyck- Rogers
combination in a Notwithstanding race,
he said that he would accommodate
these two with his rowing partner.
Fred Allward, and would take them on
for a any amount they desire only sti-
pulating that the race be rowed within
the next three weeks. AS to the course
he said that he could not answer for
satisfied with the lake. For himself,
he said that he was delighted with the
course and feels that though he has
never rowed over it, he is confident that
he can give a good account of himself
on it.
Durham looks in the pink of condition
and says that he is down to his usual
rowing weight, which is 1872 pounds. In
speaking of his previous races with
Rogers, Durham says that he never
found any great difficulty in beating
the latter, and cited several instances
when he rowed away from Ras. At
the Halifax regatta, in Halifax, in 1896,
he defeated Rogers and then again in
the city of Boston regatta in 1898 he
defeated Rogers, though the year fol-
lowing he was defeated by Rogers at
the same regatta.
Durham has not rowed to any extent this
year, taking part in but two races, both
at the Sydney regatta, at Cape Breton,
July 10, 10 and II. He won the SINGLE
scull race, beating John Brennan by
half-mile. This is the same Brennan
that Jim Ten Eyck defeated the other
day. Then, in the double-scull race
Durham, with his partner, Fred ALI
ward, defeated the Lynch brothers;
though last fall. when Durham, with
brothers, he was defeated
When asked as to whether his second
deposit of S400 would be posted tomor-
row, Durham FASTENED to reply that his
money would be forthcoming without
any doubt. He said that he had tele-
graphed to his hacker, Edward Booth
of Brockville yesterday, stating that he
was in this city, but last evening had
not received any reply.

CORNELL'S SNAPPY GAME
Ithacans Score Against the
Colgate Team at
Will.

Richf1eld Springs, N. Y, Sept. 23.-
Cornell today won its first game of foot
ball this season from Colgate univer-
sity eleven, running up a score of AZ to
0. Colgate was no match for the Itha-
cans, being outclassed in weight and
science. Cornell played a snappy
game, though at times the ball was put
into play slowly.
Capt. Starbuck, fullback, and Wal
bridge and Morrison, halfbacks, found
1t an easy matter to advance the ball
through the line and around the ends.
The first touchdown was made in less
than three minutes. Cornell handled
punts well and Capt. Starbuck made a
good showing in kicking work.
Colgate's line was unable to hold Cor
nelPs forward rush. The new guards,
Warner and Caldwell, showed up in a
satisfactory form, though the real
strength of Cornelrs team was not
tested. The features of the game were
the 50-yard run for a touchdown by
Walbridge and the work of Morrison
and of Starbuck in line bucking. Cor
nelrs ends were also fast. The lineup:
