WITHOUT A MATCH.

New Orleans Times-Democrat: "HangA
ed If I believe anybody ever made a fire
by rubbing two sticks together, all travA
elers yarns to the contrary notwith-.
standing" declared on enthusiastic local
sportsmen the other day. II spent a cou-
pie of weeks with a camping party on
the upper Red River west Of Winfield, last;
spring. he went on, land one morning D
got separated from the other boys and IL
was night before I found my way back
to our shck. I am an inveterate shaker.
and when I filled my pipe after wandering
around for an hour or more I was horri-
fled to find that my matchsafe was emp-
ty. AS soon as made that discovery my
desire for a smoke increased about 500
per cent. If 1 had had my gun along q
could awe started a blaze without trou-l
BILE, butunluckily l had set out to do some
fishinf, and had no Weapon but my hookI
and line. Naturally the first thing that
occurred to me was flint and steel, but p
couldn't find any flint, and when I hap,
pened to think of the old story about
making fire with two pieces of wood
Well, I wo MT tire you with my detailss'
but If ever q man gave an experiment q
conscientious trial I did on this occasion.
II picked up chunks of half a dozen differs
ent kinds of wood, trimmed them down
with my penknife, ad tried them all IN
various combinations, using one hard md
one soft stick, just as the story books say
the Indians do. But though 5 rubbed
until the pesky things were chafed nearly
in two, l never succeeded in getting them
even warm. At last I remembered read-
ing somewhere about a scheme of the ma
tives of Java, who are said to lay a fiat
piece of wood on the ground and twirl a
| small rod, top fashion, on its surface. by
means of a cord. I soon made one of the
machines, cutting up my suspenders for
the string, and If you had seen me squatr
ing there seesawing the thing you would
have taken an oath that l had lost my
mind. At the end Of half an hour =
was redhot and the apparatus was dead
cold. The longer l twirled the cooler ~
got. If l had kept on another half hour y
| believe I would have had a stick frappe.
| But I had gone far enough to convince
me that the man who wrote the story was
a double barrelled, back action, triple
/ plated liar, and I yearned violently for
| his gore. 1 struck camp just about dusk
and tn efrst thing I did was to grab q
coal from the fire and put it on my pipe.
Later on I discovered four matches in the
lining of my vest. I won't repeat my
remarks, but my friends asked me why +
didn't talk that way in the woods. TheV
say my language would have set fire to-
a piece of asbestos" !;

THE RING.

With the passing of the Horton law
there will go out one of the greatest
sporting CRAFTS ever conceived. Origin
ally meant to conserve the interests of
honest sport and to stimulate a healthy
rivalry in athletics generally, the law
was made to serve the selfish interests
of as cheap a lot of tinhorn sports as
ever the sun shone upon and the chances
are that it the Lewis repeater had not
been passed the privileges conferred by
the Horton law itself would have been
rendered nugatory by the swindling
methods of those who We're successful in
obtaining those privileges. This, of
course. does not apply to all of those
whosecured permission to pull off meet

THE ELECTION OF A CAPTAIN.

Will Take Place After the Thanksgiv-
ing Recess-The Law School Team.
1t was given out Sunday night that
the election of next years football cap
tain was to be held last night, but ow-
ing to the fact that number of the
players on the Yale team have left town
the election was postponed until after
Thanksgiving day, probably Saturday.
Captain Brown has gone to his home on
Long Island, Sheldon is in New York
and Olcott is at his home.
This makes 1t necessary for the post
ponement of the election until after the
Thanksgiving recess. The choice for
the position has been widely discussed,
and many are the names that have been
thought of as probable candidates.
Hale, Wear, Sharpe, Stillman and Gould
all would make good men in the place,
but it is doubtful if all of these men re-
turn to college next year.
The Yale Law school football team
will leave for the west to-day, and it
will include a strong aggregation of
players. Il is thought that some Of the
varsity men will be taken along, some
of the names mentioned being Kunzig,
Richardson, Gile and others. Captain
Wenek's team will make a good show
ing in the west and will return shortly
after Christmas.
