ORIGIN OF THE FIRE.

Someone Threw Lighted Match Into a
Lace Curtain.
Regarding the origin of the fire the
Herald publishes the following:
John Foy, a waiter in the hotel, was
passing through the hall on the parlor
floor, the first above the street. He was
making his way to place where he
could catch a moments sight of the
parade. In front of him walked a
man, patron of the hotel. The waiter
did not know him. Passing thus one
behind the other, they had nearly

match and lighted cigar or cigarette.
He tossed the match aside. 1t was still
blazing and fell into the folds of lace

was ablaze and the flames shot to sur

counts, was the origin of the holocaust
in which many human beings persisted

helpless thousands looked on in wild
horror"

wards, the coachers and the under
graduates are determined that Prince
ton shall win the championship in foot
ball, this season. Never before has the
team worked harder and every one is
extremely enthusiastic over the coming
game with Yale. At l o'clock today
the whole student body assembled in
front of "Old North" and practiced
singing foot ball songs which will be
sung at Saturdays game.
Coach Barnard then addressed the
students on their duties toward the
team. A parade Of 1900 students, head
ed by fife and drum corps, then went
through the streets to the foot ball field
The practice was open only to THE
students today, and the bleachers were
well filed with rooters. The team went
out on the field, and after falling on
the ball for a few minutes, lined up
against the scrubs for 25-minute half.
The team showed Improvement over

to the scrubs.
Four touchdowns were scored-one by

the third by McCord through right
guard and the other by Knight through
left tackle. Reiter entered the lineup
today. He remained in the game only

Cord was forced to retire with an in

with Palmer at left end. Mills and Craig
played at left guard; Barnard replaced
Booth at centre; Hillebrand put
up the strongest work on the varsity
and Charlie Young and Duncan did star
playing on the scrub.
The second half was secret, and the

The scrubs broke training tonight. All
the players are in fine condition and
the coaches refuse to express an opin-

will be given tomorrow and Friday.

SCRUB MAKES GAINS
Coached By Sanford They
Make Holes in Yale
Tackles.

New Haven, CT, Nov. 22-The Yale
foot ball players were given their first
lineup since the Harvard game this
afternoon. But the work was scarcely
more than five minutes in duration,
though hard enough and fast enough
to suit any one. The players had pre-
viously been through signal practice
and exercise in running down the field
under punts, as yesterday. Coach Fos-
ter Sanford of Columbia, who came up
for the day, volunteered to take charge
of the strongest scrub team that the
squad afforded and put them through a
few minutes drill against the eleven
that played Harvard and which will go
into the contest with Princeton.
Capt. Mcbride and Head Coach Rod
gers gladly accepted the proposition.
Accordingly Cunha, Tomlinson and Gle
as center trio, faced Hale, Olcott and
Brown respectively, and Allen and Cook
at tackles faced Francis and Stillman,
while Winter and Gould skirted the
scrub line at ends. Little Joe Wear was
at quarter and Hyde at fullback for the
substitutes, with Miner and Miller at
halfbacks. This was about as strong a
combination as could be picked out to
face the varsity line, and with Sanford
driving them in formations such as
Princeton has used this season the
scrubs made it exceedingly lively for
the varsity for a few minutes.
The coachers were in fact surprised
to note with what effectiveness the
plays on tackle were worked, and were
fearful lest the varsity eleven should
prove as ineffective on the offense
They were encouraged a little later,
however, when the varsity took the ball
on downs and warmed up to the work
in hand. 1t is probable, however that
the scrubs were in better condition for
offensive work than the regulars, for
the reason that yesterday they gave the
freshman eleven a good stiff 20 minutes
of playing, and the varsity men have
not had any hard work this week until
this afternoon
