New Haven, Nov 21.-Hard work was again the order of the day at the Yale football field yesterday afternoon. The play was of the whirlwind style There were several changes in the varsity. Sharpe was played at left half back and Fincke at quarter. Chad wick was again out of the play. and Cook was at right half back. Rich ardSNn was used at right guard in Sheidon's place. The substitute ends. Ferguson and Ratferty. were also on the varsity. Wear was out and in good physical condition. and there was good deal of surprise expressed over the playing of Fincke at quarter. The conclusion is that the coaches want to let Fincke have little practice at quarter So he can step into that posi- ton on Saturday if he is needed.

M'KINLEY AT HOME.
PRESIDENT Reaches Canton, O., and
Is Given n housing Reception
by His Fellow TOwnsmen

Canton, O., July AT 1913 Satur-
day morning President and Mrs. Nc
kinley reached Canton on a regular
Pennsylvania train. Fifteen. minutes
later the president was in his own
home, the remodeled cottage in North
Market street, made famous in the
campaign of '96, shaking hands with
the members of the citizens reception
committee of '96, who had arranged
the informal reception and escorted
him through crowded streets to his
home. A minute later he was on the
porch in response to the calls of a
vast crowd, who had rushed through
the gate or climbed over the fence and.
filling the streets on either side of the
house, were tramping the grass just
as they did four years ago.
The president said: ''My Fellow Citi-
zens: 1t is needless for me to say that
we are very glad to get home again
and to be with you and one of YOU as
of old. And the pleasure is very great
ly enhanced by the warm and hearty
welcome which my old neighbors and
fellow citizens have given me here this
morning, for which most profoundly
thank you all"

MANY MILLS AND FACTORIES CLOSE.
All the Iron, Steel and TinplaSe Mills

of the Pittsburgh District Shut
Down Situation Reviewed by
Leading Agencies.

Pittsburgh, Pa, July All the
iron, steel and tin plate mills under
the jurisdiction Of the Amalgamated
association closed Saturday night, but
there was no strike as is customary
on June 80 each year, when the wage
scale remains unsigned. Assistant
President Thomas Marsell, of the
Amalgamated association, explains
that the shutdown cannot be called
strike, as negotiate are pending on
the three scales presented to the man
utacturers, and an agreement on all
of them is probable as soon as the
manufacturers and the workers are
ready to resume operations.
By the closing of the union mills
fully 100000 men are thrown idle. In
addition to the union mills many non
union plants will be shut down for re-
pairs.
All the window glass factories con-
trolled by the American Window Glass
company that have been operating
since the regular shutdown on June
IS, having a capacity of over 1000
pots, were closed at noon. Fully 10, 600
window glass workers will be idle dur
ing July and August, and longer unless
the wage scale is arranged before Sep
TENDER 1, but there does not seem to
any doubt now that all differences will
be adjusted by that time.
All the flint and chimney glass fac
tories closed Saturday night. the for
mer for two months and the latter for
six weeks. AS result over 10000
flint glass workers will have vacation
during the hot months. The flint glass
wage scales have been satisfactorily
settled except in the chimney branch,
and this will likely be adjusted before
the time for the next fire.

PRESIDENT PLAYED POKER.
of the United States Took
O. Hand.

The marriage of Chester Alan Ar
thur, to Mrs. Andrews, at Vevey, re-
calls an interesting affair in which
his father participated while officiat-
ing at an exposition in this country,
and which has hitherto escaped pub
lication, says the New York Herald.
August 1, 1888, witnessed the open
ing of the exposition at Louisville,
and the central figure was President
Arthur. Upon his arrival on the soil
of Kentucky the president was met
by the then governor of the state,
Luke B. Blackburn, and in response
to speech of welcome by him the
president made gracious reply. The
train then sped onward through the
state until Louisville was reached.
Here the president was met by a
delegation of prominent men of the
city, headed by the mayor, Charles D.
Jacob. At night banquet was ten
dered to the distinguished guest at
the Gait house, at which he was called
upon to respond to toast.
At about II p. m. the president, &C.
companied by the committee appoint
ed to look after his comfort while in
Louisville, started for the suite of
rooms which had been set aside for
him at the Gait house, and, after a
chat of about half an hour with the
members of the committee which
composed some of the prominent men
in Louisville's affairs, excused himself
and retired.
After the president had withdrawn
one of the committee suggested that
the party while away couple of
hours with a game of poker. No dis
senting voice being raised, the cards
and chips were brought forth and the
game was on. For solid hour or
more nothing could be heard but the
clinking of the chips and the subdued
voices of the players as the bets were
made. When the game was at it's
height, and the eyes and ears of the
players were so intently fixed upon
the cards and the betting as to be
totally oblivious to their surround
ings, a tall figure clad in white
night robe appeared from behind the
portieres of a communicating room,
and, coming up behind one of the
players, gently tapped him on the
shoulder.
To the establishment of this player,
upon looking up he beheld by his side
the president of the United States
The president said he had been lying
in bed since the game began listening
to the rafting of the chips and the
betting which was going on in the
adjoining room, and, though tired,
he could not persuade himself to go
to sleep until he had taken a hand in
the game. With one voice the COM
mittee extended an invitation to the
president to take a seat at the table
and join in the game, which he did.
Louisville to-day has the distinction
of having once had president of
the United States while it's guest
playing a game of poker with some
of it's leading citizens in his, night
rope. ,~s.. #.t
