THE FOOTBALL GIRL.
sedate in Appearance but Savage at
Henri

With the coming of autumn the usual
symptoms Of feminine admiration for the
| football boy says the New York sun
| breaks out i'll the form of purchases of
photographs Of players and of the pins
| and pcnnantS of the various colleges
Parties of girls take trains to distant
points to witness practice games be-
tween the varsity men and the schrubs
| The enthusiasm which the modern girl
evinceS on the subject of the footbah
game and its players is an entirely diff
ferent form of hysteria from that Law
ished upon the matinee actor.
The latter admiration is of the spirit
and is sentimental and sympathetic,
Matinee actor worship is wrongly des-
cribed as mawkish or silly. 1t is always
the hero or the sentiment or deed that
is worshiped-not the player. But
there is something wild and terrible in
the fine and eXultant frenzy of enthusi-
asm which an ordinary sedate young
woman will display over football
game, so frequently IL scene of carnage
and gore spilling. The modern girl has
learned to look unmovod upon the spec
tacle of Il man falling unconscious upon
the field, for she has been told time and
again by her brother or somebody else's
brother: Hell be all right in Il minute.
He's had the wind knocked out of him;
that's all.' She has grown to accept
these happenings as incvitable hut the
wildness of hrr cheers and the waving
of her flags and handkerchef.3 would
seem to Indicate some innate s3yagery
or Indian instinct lurking beneath her
autumn coat. At one of the games last
year between the Carl.Sle Indian play
US and the Yale men boy selling a
score card passed among the girls on the
grandstand. One OF them. Il blonde,
blur-eycd, angelic locking girl, whose
brother was with Yale, said to the boy
ncrvously:
DO You think they W wi
who Il var mcnn-dc Chicks or de
Dools?"
THE Yale men,
"pcy'll. tear dere hearts out, dat's
all"
And she gave the hoy ii quarter and
sank back with a look of beautiic salts
faction.

open space back Of he station.
IL accordance WITH Via usual custom he
took up the subject Of trusts in the be
ginning Of his address; ana in strong
terms warned his hearers agninst all pfi-
vatc mon0polics. The trusts, he said,
co;ild ut any time close down amy of the
factories under their control and We're
constantly doing so aud thus throwing
their employees ont Of work all over the
country. Bad az was this state of affairs,
AIr. Bryan declared that the Republican
party was under so many obligations to
the trusts and its fortunes so bound up
with theirs that 10 leader of the party
dare raise his voice against them.
Five minute stops were made ut Tarry-
town. Sing Sing, peckSkill. Cold Sprin.

Mr.. Bryan and his party remained an
hour. At Sing Sing he referred TO the Local
tion of the state penitentiaiy nj that point
and said: Il believe this is where you
have the state prison. This is where you
have great many people who havela full
dinner pail. because the state always
gives the prisoners Il full dinner
pail, but whilr they are given IL fun
dinner pail theyt are deprived of their
liberty, ana when the trusts offer full
