TIGERS HAD PLENTY TO DO.
Dickinson Gives the Princeton Team
a Hard Struggle.

PRINCETON. n. J., Oct. 16.-In the
Dickinson College eleven, which played
here this afternoon, the Tigers found by
all odds the hardest proposition they
have tackled thus far this year. They
succeeded in besting the Pennsylvanians
o to 0. but not, however, without suf-
fering little anxiety and exerting them
selves to the utmost.
The visitors were a big. husky lot of
men, and they played sharp, fast foot
ball. Their backs worked well together
and during the first few minutes they
plousl-ed through the Princeton line.
Dickinson had carried the ball more than
twenty-five yards when a confusion of
signals caused n tumble. Davis dropped
on the ball for Princeton.
In the first lineup, De Witt, the new
halfback, skirted Dickinson's left end
for . yards. McCord added five more
past centre, and the penalty of ten yards
for offs:de play. together with several
short gains by the Tigers backs. landed
the leather on Dickinsons 3-yard mark,
when McCord went over the remaining
chalk line for a touchdown. De Witt
kicked the goal
Dickinson had demonstrated clearly that
they could advance the leather. and rather
than run any risk a change in the team
was made soon after the play began
again. De Witt was sent from halfback
TO his old position at right tackle and
foulke took his place. Mills went to the
side lines and Butkieicz moved along TO
flght guard. The half closed with the
score to 0.
Princeton's play In the second half was
better. They scored two touchdowns and
De Witt dropped a clever goal from the
neld on the 50-yard line.

VIRGINIA ABLE TO SCORE
Pennsylvania Finds the Southern
Eleven Hard Proposition.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 16.-Pennsylva-
MIA found it hard work to run up a re-
spectacle score against the University of
Virginia on Franklin Field today. The
final score was 90 to 5. The first half
ended s to in Pennsylvania favor.
The Southerners had scored on a drop
kick from the twenty-five-yard line They
did this soon after forcing Pennsylvania
down to her ten-yard line, where they
were held for downs Pennsylvania scor-
ed her first touchdown in less than five
minutes of play. After the goal from the
field by Coleman. in an exchange of punts,
Butler sent the ball to Mason on the five
yard line. In kicking from behind the
goal posts Coleman hit the cross bar. and
the ball bounded back. Frank Harris fell
on the ball. being downed by Donaldson,
for safety touchdown.
In the second half Pennsylvania's de-
fence, which had been very weak on end
runs, was braced up. and the offensive
work was more forcible. Consequently
the Nirgtnians' line was cut up and the
score increased. However, several times
in the second half Pennsylvania was
obliged to punt or was held for downs.

BARvARD's LINE CRIPPLED.
Two Goals Thrown Away in the
Game With Wesleyan.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. Oct I6.-Harvard
defeated Wesleyan on Soldiers Field this
afternoon by the small score of 16 to O.
The Harvard eleven was largely team of
substitutes, as number of the regular
men are out of the game just now Cap
tain Campbell was not in the game on
account Of a bad ankle he received in
the practice yesterday. Roberts, who was
down for centre. did not play because of
a wrenched knee, and Ristine was not
at right halfback.
Harvard's combination today was very
slow both in the line and behind 1t. Wes-
leyan was able to gain her distance three
times through the line, and time and
again Silliman, right guard on the Con-
necticut team, got through and stopped
end plays. Thompson also got through
the Harvard line and stopped a number
OF plays. Wesleyan's gains were for the
most part through Cults who played at
right tackle for the first time today in
game. He was a bit slow on the de-
fensive, but very aggressive on the Of
fence. His newness in the position ac-
counts largely for the gains. Sargent
played at centre for Harvard.
Mathews made a remarkable catch on
punt. The ball was away over his head
and the little quarterback jumped up
stopped the ball, and caught IL as 1t fell.
In the first half two touchdowns were
made by Croydon, and on one of them
Herman kicked goal. but he failed on the
other The third touchdown was made
by Knowles in the second half and Bar
nard failed to kick goal, so that Harvard
threw away two points again today be-
cause she has not reliable goal kicker

AN INTERNAL REMEDY.
A Pleasant Tasting Tablet; Simple

of Catarrh

The use of inhalers, douches. spravs

nuisance and inconvenience at the hest
and cannot compare witt. antiseptic rem
edies in tablet form for internal use
Internal remedies are the only ones
which can really reach the seat of the dis
ease. which is in the blood and local an
pllcations can no more cure catarrh than
rheumatism or kidney trouble. the ex-
cessive secretion in nose and throat be-
ing local manifestations of deep seated
poison in the blood
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets, the most sue
cessful of the various internal remedies.
Is composed principally of highly concen-
trated antiseptics which destroy the
catarrh germs in the blood and cause
them to be eliminated through the nat
ural channels.
Progressive physicians use and advise
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets because they
contain no cocaine, no opiate, no enerva-
ung drug whatever. but are composed of
Guaiacol Hydrastin, Red Gum and sim
liar catarrh antiseptics. and are so safe
and pleasant that even little children may
use them with excellent results.
Catarrh sufferers who have wasted time
and money o. local applications should
not despair of radical cure until trial
of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets has been
made.
A complete treatment may be purchased
at any drugstore for 80 cents.

brary by Congress, upon which the dona-
| tion was conditioned. In what does suit
| able maintenance consist?
THE factors recognized by librarians
as affecting the cost of such maintenance
are the size of the building to be cared
for. the number of separate reading
places to be supervised, the number of
active readers and borrowers, and in gen
eral the activity of the library To the
cost Of current maintenance must be
added in the case of library in process
of organization or adaptation to a new
building and d larger constituency a
special expenditure for new apparatus in
the way of catalogues. etc. and for the
preparation of new books for use, In ad-
dition, of course, to an expenditure for
the acquisition of new books to meet the
suddenly enlarged demand"
up to this time says Mr.. Noyes the
plea for appropriations for books has
been weakened and rendered practically
Ineffective by the fact that the library's
temporary rented quarters have been
overcrowded, and the limited cataloguing
force overtaxed merely by donated vol
umes. Congress was slow. to provide
more books when the library could hardly
catalogue and shelve those-ft had. Now
conditions are completely reversed. In
stead of overcrowding, ample areas in the
new building are to be enjoyed. The
$500 volumes which overflow the present
quarters will be lost in the new building.

of the book stack to the full five tiers will
give room for 19o,S00 volumes more.
when the new building is dedicated
and thrown open to the public 1t should
have at least the shelves on the first floor
and the first tier of the book stack filled
with catalogued books ready for public
use, a total of Il. go volumes. OF this
number nearly 23,0O0 are now available,
and about 40 900 must be provided An i'm
is necessary to decently fill the
shelves of the new building, and
to round out the existing library,
which from the fac that it is composed
unsymmctrical, full OF weaknesses and
omissions, The spcri'l classes of books
most needed for this purpose are noted
by the librarian in his report to the trus-
tees.
Attention is especially called to the
necessary Strengthening of the reference
and children's departments. The library
is by the law creating II part or the
educational system of the District, sup
plement of the public schools, and no eff
useiulness and to cause it to meet its full
responsibility in this capacity.
The equities of library maintenance as
established by the precedents of other
cities need to be met. In stocking new
library buildings with collections of hooks
cirC ulating library forces American mu-
inequalities have not been illiberai Sta
tistlcs on this subject are presented in

In view of the foregoing information as
