Annual Battles.

OF course all we old college boys are
mighty glad to hear that informal ne
gotiations have been entered into by
Harvard and Princeton for a series of
annual football battles. says Sandy
Griswold in the Word Herald. Har-
wards agreement with the University
of Pennsylvania has expired and
Princeton is now more anxious than
ever before to take the place Of the
Quakers. Yale is favorable to such
move, and the New Haven university
has constantly advised Harvard to
take this step. 1t Is a fact, however,
that many of Harvard's leading grad
yates and also a number of the stu
dents favor renewal of the contract
with Old Penn. The rela ions between
Cambridge and Philadelphia have been
most friendly. "Pennsy" has never re-
fused to adhere to the eligibility rules
which We're practically drawn UP by
Harvard to govern their contests, and.
barring the little unpleasantness which
ended the game at Philadelphia this
fall, there never has been any friction.
When Overfeld attempted to run away
with the ball after Harvard's victory
there was quite general mixup, it
will be remembered. Blows We're struck
and the police were compelled to quell
the disturbance. At that time Har-
ward men, who saw the incident, de-
clared that Old PENIS goose was cook
ed. Since then, however reaction
has set in. Here the sentiment pre-
walls that the University Of Penn
sylvania has been unfairly treated by
both Yale and Princeton. Harvard
men have said all along that Prince
ton ought to renew relations with the
Quakers as they are natural rivals
from a geographical standpoint. But
such points carry no weight at Prince
ton, where there seems to be deter
mination on the part of the faculty
athletic committee not to permit any
further relations with the Philadel
phians. 1t is true that within the past
two weeks representatives of Old Penn
have been trying to secure another
agreement with Harvard. This has
been done informally through the me-
diation of prominent graduates of both
universities. But the intervention of

Western Teams Show.

Chicago Wisconsin and Michigan
have shown by their work that they
are in a position to dispute first hon
ors with the best. Nor has this rise
been of the mushroom order Under
efficient Eastern coaching these col
1eges have been coming to the front
for several years back, until this year
has brought them way to the front.
Chicago has met more Eastern teams
this year than any other Western
school, and in each instance has gone
through with flying colors, with the
possible exception of the game with
Pennsylvania, which the Maroons
ought to have won by at least two
touchdowns, instead of it's being merely
a tie. Wisconsin, although it caught
Yale early in the season, was beaten
only by long run that was one Of
the accidents of the game, and Michi-
gan, the weakest of the Western big
three" was defeated by the Quakers
only by goal from touchdown. Ger
tainly these three teams have attained
the class of the best Eastern elevens,
and must be reckoned with in all
championship calculations.

Gossip of the Sporting World,

No attempt is made to select an all
American or allWestern team for the
reason that it is foolish to aim at the
Impossible. OF course it is easy enough
10 name an eleven that would be fairly
representative and unusually strong,
but it would probably be just as easy
to select another team that could de-
feat the first named. There are a num-
Der of strong players that have been
developed this year or have been Il
legacy of previous seasons, but even
to START to mention them would be to
undertake too long task. After all
there is no player who is Indispensable,
and team work is of greater import
ance than any amount of individual
brllilancy. Some men are stars on
some teams that would scarcely be
heard of on others, and vice versa.
AS a rule football has been cleaner
this year than ever before. Officials
are becoming stricter and are being
supported in their decisions by the col
leges. Coaching from the side lines is
still prevailing evil, more so in the
East than in the West, and should be
eliminated from a sport that is pre-
sumably one for gentlemen. Most of
the big colleges have kept the ranks
of their teams free from men with
questionable records. The faculties are
more active in looking up their men
and more fearless in enforcing anna
teur rules. The case of Wellington at
the university Of Chicago is the most
fragrant exception to this statement,
although Cornell in Walbridge has "a
man whose eligibility has been widely
questioned.
There have been a number of deaths
and serious injuries on the gridiron
this year. but in no case has death
come to a member Of big team that
took good care of it's men and required
strict training. 1t is the young, I'M
trained and immature that incur the
greatest danger, and even at that the
proportion of deaths and serious in
juries is small when it is considered
that in the neghborhood of 100000 men
and boys played the game this year.

GATARRH OF s!
A Pleasant. Simple, but SAT-
Cure for 1t.

4 Pleasant. Simple, bat SAT
Cure for It.
Catarrh of the Stomac
been considered the mex
incurable. The usual ll[l
are full of bloating Gsation
after eating, accompanied some
times with sour or watery risings,
q formation of gases, causing pres
sure on the heart and lungs and
difficult breathing; headaches,
tickle appetite, nervousness and a
general played out, languid feel
ing.
There is often a foul taste in
the mouth, coated tongue and il the
interior of the stomach could be
seen it would show a Shiny, in
famed condition.
The cure of this common and
obstinate trouble is found in a
treatment which causes the food
to be readily, thoroughly digested
before it has time to ferment and
1rritate the delicate mucous sur
faces OF the stomach. To secure
prompt and healthy digestion is
the one necessary thing to do and
when normal digestion is secured
the catarrhal condition will have
disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlanson, the
safest and best treatment is to use
after each meal a tablet. compos-
ed of Diatase, Aseptic Pepsin, a lit
tie Nux. Golden Seal and fruit
acids. These tablets can now be
found at all drug stores under the
name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets, and not being patent medi-
cine can be used with perfect safe
ty and assurance that healthy ap-
petite and thorough digestion will
follow their regular use after
meals.
Mr.. N. J. Booher, of 2710 Dear
born St, Chicago, ILL.,, writes:
"Catarrh is local condition re-
sultlng from a neglected cold in
the head, whereby the lining mem
brane of the nose becomes inhamed
and the poisonous discharge there
from passing backward into the
throat reaches the stomach, thus
producing catarrh of the stomach.
Medical authorities prescribed for
me for three years for catarrh of
stomach without cure, but to-day
l am the happiest Of men after
using only one box of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. I cannot find
appropriate words to express my
good feeling. l have found flesh,
appetite and sound rest from their
use"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest preparation as well as the
simplets and most convenient rem
edy for any form Of Indigestion,
catarrh Of stomach, biliousness,
sour stomach, heartburn and
bloating after meals.
Send for little book mailed free,
on stomach troubles, by addressing

tablets can be found at all drug
stores.

Yesterday Mr. Chas. w. Franzheim,
president of the Wheeling Pottery Co.,
who has been a leading spirit in the or
ganization of the American Potteries Co,
returned from New York city. where his
interests had called him. In response to
questions put by a Register reporter, Mr..
FranZheim spoke confidently of the out
look for the big consolidation and de-
nounced as groundless the reports coming
from the east that the enterprise is shaky
for the want of adequate financial under
pinning. He says the rumor originated
from condition that developed after
the promoters got together and talked
the matter over, and which. on the whole,
insures greater success rather than a pos
sibility of failure. This condition embod-
les determination to take many more
concerns into the combination than was
originally intended, and the increase Of
capital from $27, GO to $40,o00,O.0. To ar
range for doing this caused some delay in
the procedure, and parties on the outside
thinking the scheme about to fall
through, so reported it.
The Register is privileged to state that
the money has not been paid over for the
local plants, and since the subscription
books, after the change Of plan was set
tied upon, were only re-opened last
Wednesday, a definite date for the DIS
bursements has not been set.
Mr. Franzheim expressed himself as
well pleased with the progress the conso.-
idated interests is making, and is optinis-
tic in his views as to the benefits to ac-
crue in every way to the great industry in
which he Is engaged.
