At Princeton.

Princeton, Oct 2.-The Tigers for mally opened the football season here yesterday Afternoon by beating the Villa Nova eleven by score of 3o to o. The figures, however, do not neces- sarily represent any unusual strength on the part of Princeton, as the Pcnn- sylvania college had on the field one of the weakest eleyens that the Tigers have faced in years. Its line crumbled like paper before the plunges of the Princeton backs, of interference there was scarcely a trace, and even when the visitors were forced to kick they hardly ever advanced the pigskin more than twenty-five yards The heavy Orange and Black line men broke through their opponents time and again. mailing the runner for loss of five. ten and sometimes fifteen yards. Villa Nova failed to gain the necessary five yards once. As a matter of fact, it is doubtful whether they carried the leather that distance during the entire contest. In addition, they detracted seriously from whatever interest there was in the match by constantly playing for time, thus dragging the fifteen minute halves out over period of al- most two hours. All of which goes to show that the supporters of the Tigers should not. be at all optimistic over the btg5 score. sroi1efgi up tin the opening game. There were, however, some ia vorable points developed in the con-

"on Fame's Eternal camplns-erOund.'

The campaigns and battles of the civil
war were on a scale of surprising magni-
tude. There were more than a score of
single battles, sometimes extending over
several days, in each of which the losses
in killed and wounded on the Federal
side were greater than the aggregate of
all our losses in all our other wars COM
bined. How paltry seem the 5000 killed
and wounded in the war of 1872, or the
war in Mexico, or the war with Spain,
compared with the 1900 at Shiloh, 10000
at the Chickahominy, 1900 at Antietam,
the same at Fredericksburg, 10000 at
Charlottesville, $4,000 at Gettysburg, 49,
900 at Chickamauga, $1,000 in the Wilder
ness, and $4,000 at Spottsylvania. The
grand aggregate of destruction fairly
staggers the imagination, accustomed as
we have been for more than generation
to figures; $4,000 killed by bullets, 10000
killed by disease, 25OOO dead from other
causes-a grand total of 100000, about
one in nine of every man who wore the
uniform.
In no other war in all time has such
respect been paid to the dead 1mme-
diately after it's close the secretary of
war was directed by Congress ito secure
suitable burial places, and to have these
grounds enclosed, so that the resting
| places of the honored dead may be kept
| sacred forever" In 70 separate and dis
tinct national cemeteries the bodies of
nearly 100000 soldiers who died during
the civil war are inferred, and the decora-
| ton of their graves with flowers on a
| fixed day has become a national custom.
Some of the cemeteries contain each a
silent army of over 10000 soldiers, in ser
ried ranks marked by the white head
stones, on nearly half of which is in
scrbed unknown" The world may be
searched in vain for anything similar
| or kindred; there is no other such i'm
pressive sight.
| on fames eternal camping ground,
Their silent tents are spread;
| And glory guards with solemn round,
The bivouac of the dead.

Not Boosting, Simply Reiteratine
Facts.
barre Times.l

It has been insinuated by one of our
most esteemed exchanges, the st. Albans
Messenger. that the Times is in the habit
of boasting about Barre The Times mas
done nothing of the sort. 1t is occasion
ally called on to mention n few facts
about the town and the showing is nearly
always so good that we are not wholly
surprised that it sounds like boasting
to less favored communities. Barre is the
only town in Vermont where there aver
ages to be a baby born every "a hours,
where two or more houses are completed
every week in the year, where from SIX
to ten miles of new streets are laid out
every season, where a new Sl5,OO0 school-
house is built every two years, where the
workingmen receive in wages Sl5O'O00
every month, where more money is paid
out for education in proportion to the
grand list than in any other of the larger
towns in the state, where there is no such
thing as poverty or aristocracy and
where the property has doubled In value
every five years for the past twenty. 1t
ought not to be considered boasting to
call attention occasionally to these and
other interesting, creditable and indis-
putable facts. We do not so consider 1t.

ion.
At the opening of court at Bennington
Friday, the Livingston-Page case being
under consideration. Judge Rowel deliv-
cred his opinion on the motion entered by
counsel for Page, asking that the case be
taken from the jury. He decided i'm favor
of the defendant as far as the amount
called for i'm the bill presented by Liv-
ingston, about $500, for space in, and in
fluence of the Reformer thus taking 1t
from the jury.
The verdict was directed against the
plaintiff because the contract was against
public policy, and therefore void.
In the matter of the note. pleaded in
offset, the court decided that there was
nothing due Ex-Governor Page on it.
In his opinion, as given, the judge
stated that the, contract claimed was
| intended by both parties to be kept Sc
cret, which was proof of its illegality.
Judge Rowells opinion on the motion
was a studied and learned paper. He
cited a Vermont and Illinois case in the
| Sixties" which bore upon the present
suit as to the surrounding circumstances
and acts of the parties in this litigation.
| He reasoned whether acts like those in
| the testimony were in contraversion of
the public good, and in consonance with
| the duties of good citizenship. The plain
! tiff Livingston, testified over and over
again that he was hired for a money con-
siderauon, and supported the candidacy
of the defendant because of what he was
paid. The Judge alluded to the secrecy
enioined as an element of evil tow
| good public policy and citizenship; that
| the reader who paid for a Democratic
newspaper was entitled to the honest
opinion of the editor from an editorial
standpoint and in this case the evidence
of the plaintiff showed that the aforesaid
reader received a 'mercenary" opinion
while paying for an honest one. inc
court scored the circumstances developed
by the testimony.
The case will be taken to the SUI
preme court to determine whether the
contract is legal one, or not.
1t is certain. however, that Livingston
secured 800 for his services.

COTTON LETTER.

Liverpool was unchanged on spots, on sales of 5000 bales. Future con- tracts in that market showed loss of ? to points from yesterdays close American markets were gen. orally lower. New York opened with May on first call at S11. eo#t, un to SIS and as low as S04. July opened at S19, sold up to S21, and as low as S07. Spots in the Northern market were 1-16 lower on sales of 151 bales New Orleans cot. ton market was likewise lower today, May opening at S06, sold up to 807, and as low as 792 during the day. Spots were 1-16 lower on sales of A. 100 bales. The decline in American cotton was attributed to the selling orders received from the continent and the influence of better weather prevailing in the cotton belt. Europe was reported as heavy sellers in the Northern market today. Port re- ceipts were again in excess of those of year ago. they figuring 1900 bales. as against 5,400 for the same day of last year. The weather bu- reau predicts fair and warmer wealth CT for the cotton belt and We may look for another decline in the morn ing, should Liverpool respond to the decline in the American markets.
