up in the superior court tomorrow will
be the contested divorce matter of
Charles e. woodward Of Townsend
avenue, annex, VS.. Flora woodward, nee
Hull.
This case was brought in on April %,
1899, and in the complaint the plaintiff
alleges that his wife has been addicted
to the use of intoxicating liquors to
great excess for a period of over two
years. The parties were married June

strong Feature EXemplli1ed IN YeSter-

The peculiarly insistent bitter feeling
that exists in Yale against Princeton
as it does against no other college, is
well exemplified in the following edit
orial from the Yale News yesterday.
No athletic contest has ever afforded
Yale. quite as much satisfaction as did
the Princeton football game Of 1900. 1t
pleased us beyond expression. There
are often times when the partisan spec
tator likes to see an exciting and even
ly matched contest. 1t was not so with
Yale on Saturday. We went to Prince
ton hoping to see our opponents COM
pletely outclassed and our hopes were
realized. The game was an exhibition
of clean, straightforward football, in
which Yale had the decided advantage.
Princeton has not suffered such de-
clsive defeat for six years, and Yale
is proud to have been the cause of it.
Such an editorial would be difficult
to imagine over the event Of next Sat-
urday's game with Harvard even If
Yale should roll up a heavier score
than that in the game with the Tigers
