PRISONED.

In October, 1880, the Church having
been under the presidency Of the
Twelve Apostles for a little more than
three years, the First Presidency was
recognized with John Taylor as Presi-
dent, George q Cannon as First Coun-
selOr and Joseph f. Smith as Second

Latest Effort of DeKoven and Smith
 Philadelphia, Dec 4.-"Maid Marian v The latest effort of Reginald Dekoven and Harry B. Smith was given its pro- duction at the Chestnut street opera house tonight, the presentation being made by the Bostonians. The audience was large, fashionable and discriminat- ing.

AN ANCIENT SPORT.

"Ye Merry Game of Football from Ancient Times Till Now Is the title of an illustrated article in the November St. Nicholas from the pen of N. O.. Messenger. The Greeks invented the sport, and through the Romans it reached the Britons. In the time of Queen Elizabeth football was in high favor. It was played in the city streets, on the commons, and in coun- try lanes. There was not much rule or order to the game, the object being mereyl to put the ball into the enemy s goal, by fair means or by foul. The goals might be a mile apart, With ditches and hedges and highroads be- tween The players struggled in ear nest, and broken bones were no rarity in the rush that followed.
 This was probably the toughest and most brutal period In footballs history. The accounts of the times speak fre- ouently of accidents, and too often there were were fatal incidents in the playing of the game.
 Shrove Tuesday was football day in those times, and then the whole popu- pace went football mad. Every one turned out to kick the ball. There was one grand scramble to reach 1t as 1t was punted down the streets, over housetops and across commons, The merchants barred shop windows ana doors as the merry crowds surged through the streets, for scant heed was given to any obstacle that stood in the way of the pursuit of the ball. Some times two or more crowds, in chase Of

NoR7H ROAD TANGLE.
An Unofficial Statement That an Agree
 meut Has Been Reached.

New York, Nov. At was unofficially stated tonight that an agreement had been pract ctically reached whereby the tangle in the Northwestern railroad situation resulting from the corner or Northern Pacific shares on the stock exchange early in May, which caused the panic of May 9, will be settled. Or ficials connected with the various com panies at interest absolutely refuse to give out any statement in regard to the rumored agreement. It was stated on good authority, however, that the set tlement involving the widespread inter ests of the Union Pacific, the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific rall- road will be based primarily on the re- tirement of the Northern Pacific pre- ferred st ock on the basis of 1l5 or above and the issuance of 1-2 per cent. bonds. one-third of which, it was stat ed. would be allotted to the Union Pa cific interest.
 The crux of the reported agreement lay in the proposed division of territory where the railroads mentioned shall have complete traffic agreements re- garding a certain territory in the coun- try tapped by those lines. It is gener- ally understood that this plan of set clement awaits the approval of w. K Vanderbilt. who Is expected to arrive from Europe on Wednesdays steamer

the flying pigskins, fell foul of one an- others course, and then there was to-do. and the strongest held the right of way, perhaps carrying off both balls, and causing the other crowd ao join in their pursuit
 With the year 1900 the game began to be al ,pte1 by English schools and universities as the leading sport In 1863, an association was formed and 1t was made scientific sport. At this time the game was played differently by different universities. Rugby per- mitted carrying the ball, holding run ners, charging and tackling, while Har- row and Winchester only allowed kicking. Tn 1871 the Rugby Union was formed, and rules laid down. Prior to 1875 American universities had paid little attention to football It was liar yard that brought the game to the United States, and in order to have foeman worthy of its steel, taught it to Yale. "Old Eli' took gracefully to the drubbing that was involved in learning the first lesson, which was hereafter So well that for many years thereafter Harvard had no more victories
 The Rugby game has been developed in America mainly along the lines of in terference and tackling. The Yankees were quick to perceive advantages which could be gained in this direction and put them into play. In 1886 Princeton introduced the wedge" :" using 1t against Harvard, who in turn took it up against Yale next year. Then Harvard went one better and brought out the flying wedge" which, with the "v,' the push" and the "plow," are permanent features of foot ball work.
 In the perfection of football playing into a scientific sport from the ole rough-and- tumble games of the past an | involved system of signals has come | into use. The signals are made by calling out numbers.
 There seems to be no lessening of i1- terest In the sport. There may be as many as twenty thousand spectators and the great game of football, which began with the Greeks, was carried on by the Romans, developed by the Brit ish, and perfected by the Americans seems to be indeed the king of autumn sports.-St Nichalas.

DISCUSSION OF ESTIMATES
Continued from First Page.)

(Continued from First Page) the needs of the department An in- crease in the salary of Plumbing In- spector Eldredge from $1,2O0 to $1,50O per year is asked for. It was also stated that another sanitary inspector was needed. There are now three such in- spectors who receive salaries of $500 per year. Dr. Sullivan said that these three men had been in the employ of the department for eighteen years and that they Were efficient men and the health board thought that their salaries ought to be increased to $900. He said that the board also wanted an appro- priation of $900 for the fourth inspector whom they desired to appoint.
 One new item included in the health department is $500 for the salary of a milk and food inspector. Speaking of this Dr. Fleischner said that meat was being sold to-d day to the poor classes of people in New Haven which should not properly be called meat but swill He said that it was the poor people who were suffering from this state of affairs and that they ought to be protected.
 Arthur Tennant and Adam Sattig, representing the Retail Butchers asso- citation spoke in favor of the appoint ment of such an inspector, saying that it was favored by the better class of butchers in the city.
 Last year an appropriation of $4OO was made for pr. McNeil, the bacteri- ologlst of the health department. This year an appropriation of $500 is asked for Dr. McNeil has already made All tests during the present year, and it is expected that the number will be in- creased to 600 by the end of next month. A large number of the tests were made necessary because of the typhoid cpl demic early last spring.
 One thousand dollars is asked for for the case of contagious diseases. Last year $500 was asked for. During the year s25O more has been added to the account by transfer from other &C., counts.
 There was quite a long discussion over the disposal of garbage. The city now pays about $6,000 per year to have garbage removed Dr, F'leischner stat ed last night that the way the garbage is being removed now is primitive He thought that New Haven should have garbage crematory or reduction plant in which the garbage could be take care of in proper manner, He said that such plant would cost about s23, GOO and $12,0O0 for annual mainte- nance.
 The health department asks also for s1 ,O0O for medical inspection In the schools. This inspection has been done gratis during the past year, since u was inaugurated, by volunteers. Anoth- CT item asked for is $500 for the inspec- ton of the water supply. Some Of the members of the board of finance asked if this could not be done by the state board of health, which makes such in spection in other towns, which has man hired at salary of $25oo per year to make such inspection, Members Of the health board said, however that they could get no satisfaction from the state board of health.
 The session last night lasted until 11:15. Another session will be held to- night when the estimates of other de- partments will be discussed.

 The report of the committee on fire department recommending that the sal- ary for grade A firemen be $40 per day, for grade A assistant engineers $2.74 per day, for grade B assistant en- gineers $2.61 per day, for first grade drivers $274 per day, and for second grade drivers $2.61 per day, was adopt ed.
 The special committee to which was referred the resolution for the appoint ment of Ezekiel G. Stoddard, Robert Foote and A. MaXcy Hitler trustees of the Maret fund reported. This com mittee recommended that the appoint ments be made and that the trustees be authorized to sell securities in the fund at any time and reinvest. Alderman Alcorn offered an amendment to provide that no securities should be sold except the sale was approved by all the trus- tees. This he said, was simply pre- cautionary measure and not intended to reflect at all on any of the present trustees of the fund. The amendment was adopted and the resolution as amended passed.
 Several petitions were received from residents of Oak street asking for dam ages for injury to property there by the overflow of water from sewers. The petitions were referred to the commit tee on claims, and Alderman Alling re- marked that assessments of benefits might be advisable if it was found that the water was needed, this suggestion being greeted with laughter.
 A petition was received asking that no fee be imposed for the issuance of licenses for public dances. The ordi- nance recently adopted providing for the licensing of such dances provided also for fee of $1 for the issuance of each license. The petition was referred to the ordinance committee. x A petition for the laying of perna- nent pavement on Howard avenue, be- tween<Oak street and Kimberly avenue, was referred to the street committee.
 Alderman Hosley presented a resolu- tion providing that the water commit tee be instructed to inquire and report on what terms New Haven can be sup piled with water. The resolution was adopted. The present contract of the s city with the New Haven Water com pany expires next spring, and this reso- Alution Is the first step towards negotta- stions for renewal of the contract.

| although we have more demand for curries of late than formerly. Nor do | they care for devil sauces. They like a
 sauce that has color in it and that is not too pronounced in flavor. They
 are fond of mayonnaise and tartar | sauces.
 | Tt may surprise you to know that many women are accustomed to mak- ! ing their own salad dressings at the ta- 1 ble. This is, of course, great deal
 more trouble than having the waiter i prepare it but it gives an individual touch which has much to do With the virtue of a salad dressing. In salads they are given to the odd combinations, grape fruit, apples and oranges dress- ed with a mayonnaise. The favorite just is now is celery and apple salad This taste for odd salads may be of a fad
 Small birds are popular for women's luncheons, suuab or partridge or grouse being rarely left out of the menu. Wo- men do not like their game birds cook ed in the same manner that man does. Men like birds very rare as rule. Women do not care for them un- less they are done a minute or two longer.
 There is a great run on devilled chickens legs and turkey legs. It be- gan last winter and promises to last another season. There are fads in food you know, like everything else. The legs are scored and mustards, salt and pepper rubbed in the cuts. Then they are broiled on hot gridiron and served with butter. They are very good, but hardly good enough to justify the remarkable demand there is for them. At the womens luncheons they are very popular.
 Sometimes when ad ish pleases ladys fancy she will write and ask me how it is prepared. At other times a hostess will write and say My hus- band tells me that he gets such excel lent lobster NeWburg, or it may be some other dish, at the So-andSo club I should like to have it at my luncheon served in exactly the same way"
 "Another thing in which women have improved is in the matter of tipping a waiter Women of fashion rarely re- warded a waiter for good service al- though quite we'll aware of the custom. For instance, a woman would dine with her husband one evening and he might give the waiter a liberal tip. The next day the same woman might be served by the same waiter but she would not think of giving him anything.
 But women give their walters some thing invariably nowadays, not small tip but quite a generous one. A dollar is quite the custom with some ladies who lunch here. Of course they get better service. It is a lamentable fact that nothing can make a waiter attend to his duties better than the conscious ness that he is to receive a reward when the meal Is over. ."-From the New York Sun.

SEVERE FOG IN GREAT BRITAIN
Business in the Great Cities Thrown Into Absolute Confusion.

London Nov, 4.-A fog such as Great Britain had not experienced for years enveloped London and half the United Kingdam to-day, blockading shipping, deranging railways and throwing busi- ness in London Birmingham and other provincial cities into confusion. So dense was it that walk into the streets was an adventure. The fog de- scended upon the metropolis and the suburbs so thickly that between ara 5 o'clock in the afternoon the principal avenues of traffic resembled the steam room of Turkish bath
 Hundreds of thousands of London's s suburban population vainly endeavored to grope their way to the railway sta- tions The few who succeeded found the trains all stalled.
 Around Trafalgar Square and the houses of parliament scenes unparal- leled for years were witnessed Hun dreds of omnibuses, cabs, carts and wagons formed an inextricable and lm- movable mass. The mounted police, in | trying to clear away the jam, got lost l themselves. Many vehicles were in col f lision. The drivers not knowing where they were, stood at the heads of their horses patiently awaiting the lifting Of 1 the premature darkness.
 I Lanterns were at premium, News
 bows transformed their papers into temporary torches. Highwaymen pur- 1 sued their vocation. Casualties were freouent and even hardened Londoners
 freely expressed dread of the con
 tinuation of such fogs which to-day
 reached a climax.
 . If the fog had not lifted somewhat
 toward night, London would have been
 so congested that it's housing resources, commodious as they are, would have been taxed beyond their limits by the
