OBITUARY..

James S. Taylor, son OF Rev
James and Matilda Jane Taylor,
was born in November, 1860, and
died March 20, 1901. He had been
in poor health for two years. His
mother died October 6, 1895, since
which time he has made his home
with his father, to whom he was
very attentive and took great in
terest in his welfare. A few weeks
ago he came to Point Pleasant for
medical treatment, stopping with
his brother-in-law and sister, Mr.
and Mrs. Andrew Watson, where
he received every attention and
Kindness, all being done for him
that was possible both by doctor and
friends. He died in the triumph
of the Christian faith, leaving the
clearest evidence and brightest as
surance of his salvation. He is
now free from the sorrows and
troubles of earth and enjoying the
glories of Heaven. Oh, that we
may all meet him there. Il.
MIR. Ed Foglesong closed his
school Wednesday, March 2lst, at
Harmony, Lewis district. He has
taught a very good school and Civ
en- general satisf action. Hickory
Chapel school, taught by r. o..
Kinosid, closed Thursday, the 22nd.
1t is needless to say that his soho !
was success from start to finish
The exercises on Thursday were
numerous and varied, and we're en-
joyed by a large number of persons
There were Rotations, dialogues
and tableauxs by the pupils; al
though little time had been spent
in the preparation of these exer-
discs, they reflected credit alike on
teacher and pupils. Mr.. Allen
kindly lent his aid to the after
moons entertainment with his
gramaphone; the Eckard string
band supplied the music. There
WAS a large crowd present and
every one was pleased and sur
prised, as the exercises were much
better than WAS anticipated All
went away grateful to teacher and
pupils, wishing that school closed
more than once year. 1t was al
so the general opinion that X. O
Kinoaid's personal appearance
would be very much improved by
the cultivation of a mustuche.

PLAY BAD BALL
IN A THICK FOG
Sacramento Defeats the
Oakland Team in a
Slow Game.
All the Players Show an
Ead-of-the-Season Lack
OF Interest.

Umpire "Rube'' Levy "called" what
purported to baseball game yesterday at
recreation Park in the first half of the
eighth inning. The fog. which had hung
over the field during the afternoon, set
tied down on the players in the seventh
inning. 1t was almost impossible to DIS
tingulsh the fielders. Inc players wanted
the game called in the seventh, but Levy
ordered them to continue
In the next inning Devereaux sent the
ball out to Dunleavy at center field. The
umpire called Devereaux out, although
Dunleavy dropped the ball. something
Levy did not see. In the midst of some
joking over the incident the game was
called.
The players on both teams performed
their duties in perfunctory manner

Four of the Senator's runs were made in
the opening inning. the first four men up

the bases with his timely hit.
Courtney scored the Senators other
run in the fifth. He singled. went to sec-

TN H1lIADEEPHlA, Nov. 3l.--PrOb-
ably the most distinguished gath
r. ering that ever witnessed a foot
IL ball game In this country and ad-
mittedly the greatest crowd that
ever entered the gates of Franklin field
saw West Point defeat Annapolis this af-
ternoon by a score of II to 5. From the
moment that President Roosevelt and his
party entered the great amphitheater un-
tn half an, hour after the timekeeper had
blown his whistle announcing the cessa-
tion of hostilities there was a continuous
uproar, such as probably never has
taken place on any football field in the
country.
Even the President and several MEM
bers of his Cabinet. worked UP to ner-
vous pitch by the excitement, left their
seats in the private box which had been
set apart for their occupation and took
positions on the side-line benches, which
are usually used for substitute players
and coaches The Presidents appearance
was the signal for tremendous outburst
OF applause. which continued until he had
walked down the center of the gridiron
and across the field to his seat in the
north stand. The Presidents silk hat was
on his head scarcely five seconds from the
time he entered the grounds until he had
taken his seat, so continuous was the ova-
ton.
Hardly had the President and party
taken their seats before the navy team
came upon the field from the west en-
trance. The followers of the Annapolis
eleven made the stands shake with their
cheers, and blue and orange flags seemed
to be floating from all sections of the
field. Six minutes later the West Point
lads tro:ted out, and then the black,
orange and gray Of the army was waved
deliriously from the big south stand. No
time was consumed in formalities. The
coin was tossed and Captain Nichols of
the navy called the turn correctly. He
chose the west goal, with slight advan-
tage OF the wind, and at 2:15 Graves had
kicked off,
From the moment the ball was put In
play until the timekeepers whistle blew
there was no more interested spectator
Of the game than President Roosevelt.
The contest had been in progress less
than ten minutes when he left his seat In
the private box and took his position on
the side line bench. When Casad broke
through the navy's line and ran 65 yards
the President jumped to his feet excited
ly and advanced toward the gridiron. but
returned to his seat a moment later
when the ball was put in play again. AT
the end Of the first half Secretary Root
and General Miles came across the field
to escort the President to the armys

ency of the weather and a special prize
was offered, to which the name Of the
Mudlark cup was given. The handicaps
were the same as those announced for the
Goodall cup, the contest for which will
take place next Saturday. The Mudlark
cup was won by r. M Fitzgerald, and
will be selected by Orestes Pierce. captain
Of the Oakland Golf Club.

WEST POINT CADETS DEFEAT ANNAPOLIS ON THE GRDIROk
DAILY IS THE HERO OF
A GREAT STRUGGLE FOR .HONORS.

Belknap was forced to kick. DAILY caught
the bali for West Point on the latters 90
ward line West Point could make but
little impression on the navy line and
DAILY was forced to kick, the ball going
to Annapolis on her own 50-yaro line.
After carrying 1t back to West POINTS
45-yard line the navy boys lost the pail
on holding and West Point Immediately
punted to the navy's 35-yard line The
navy punted to West Points 25-yard line
and Daily carried the ball back to mid
field before being downed. The army lads
carried the ball to the navy's 2S-yard line,
where they lost 1t on downs The navy
sent the ball out of danger, the ball going
to West Points 30-yard line. On the nrst
lineup Casad of West Point broke
through the navy line and carried the ball
to the navy's 25-yard line. Hackett,
Bucker and Casad carried the ball ten
yards nearer the Annapolis goal. It was
the third down, with three yards to gain,
and DAILY dropped back for try at
field goal. The ball sailed squarely be-
tween the posts and the West Point root
ers cheered heartily for their eleven.
There was an exchange of kicks and
then McNair, the Annapolis quarterback,
ran sixty yards. placing the ball on West
Points 25-yard line P1unges into the limo
by Freyer, Read and Nichols forced the
ball over West Points goal line, Nichols
making the touchdown. Belknap missed
the goal and the score was tied at 5. There
was no further scoring In this half, time
being called with the ball in the armys
possession in the midfield.
The sensational play of the game was
made Immediately after the kickoff IN
the second half. Belknap kicked to Daily
and the latter, catching the ball on West
Points 5-yard line. ran the entire length
of the field for a touchdown. He was as
sisted greatly by the splendid interference
of Bunker and Casad. DAILY kicked the
goal and the score was:
West Point II. Annapolis s.
Belknap was forced to retire, and An
napolia was badly handicapped by the
weak kicking Of Freyer. West Point
gained from ten to twenty yards on each
exchange. Near the close Of the game
Freyer's tumble gave the army eleven
the ball on the navy's 15-yard line. II
was carried to the 7-yard line, where IL
was lost on downs. On the first lineup
Freyer got through the West Point line
and carried the ball to midheld. Annapolis
then forced the pigskin to West Points
35-yard line, only to lose II on downs.
Daly kicked II out Of danger. This pro-
ceeding was repeated several times. tho
navy boys gaining double the amount or
ground gained by their heavier opponents.

A thick fog hung over Union coursing
park field yesterday afternoon. AS a re-
suit but few complete courses were Wit
messed by the spectators. The misty
weather, though, seemed to have an ex-
hilarating effect on the harcs, for despite
the forced short slips they maintained
their speed and gave their pursuers many

all but six of the forty courses correctly
