SOME CHAMPIONSHIPS DECIDED

SOND CHAMPIONSHIPS DECIDED
 Two boxing championships have al- ready been settled and two more will be decided before the present year closes. Harry Forbes of Chicago beat Danny D0ugherty of Philadelphia for the bantam title, and Jefries set tied Ruhl.ns claims to the heavy weight laurels.
 On Thanksgiving Day "Young Cor bett and aIcGovern will struggle for the featherweight honors at Har.fo and Ferns and Thurston will fight for the welterweight championship at De troit. As Erne who holds the light weight championship, is in Europe and seems averse to making matches, the question of supremacy doubtless will go over till next year.
 Thomas Ryan also hangs to the mid dleweight laurels and does not seem anxious to put in jeopardy his title

GHmDfu2e, MaSS, NOV 2U.-LaST night football mass meeting was held in the Harvard UnioD Nearly 1,500 students were present and a spirit of determination to wipe Yale off the face of the earth was ex- pressed by all These words. in fact, were used by. Major Higginson, the donor of the club house, in the first speech, and the same sentiment was voiced i'll different language by each speaker who followed him. Coach Lewis said that Haryard's team was the best coached and best cared for that he had seen in his ten years ex- perience with Harvard football. Coach Reid said there was not quit ter on the team and that 1t would fight to the last ditch in the game with Yale on Saturday.
 Regarding the ten year agreement with Yale which comes to close this year, Professor Hollis. chairman of the Harvard athletic committee, said that there were no reasons why it should not go on if every one only would remember that Yale was one university and Harvard another. But, he added, the rules must be thorough ly understood and rigidly enforced
 Harvard went through brilliant practice yesterday afternoon, scoring five times against the scrub and play ing sharp, snappy football at every point. The day was a bad one for football Snow fell and it made the ball slippery and difficult to handle.

Addressing Special Delivery Letters
Designed for the Country.
Since the postmaster's extension Of the
letter carrier service, from the first of last
month, to the territory formerly supplied
by the post offices at Brightwood, Takoma
Park. Oak Grove and Terra Gotta, an ex-
tension which, under the law, carried with
It like enlargement Of the bounds OF the
special delivery service also, the messen-
gers of the post Office have had considera-
BILE difficulty in making quick delivery OF
special delivery letters for persons living
in the general neighborhood of those places
Of course If a letter should be addressed
to a hotel, or to a well known company, or
to street in the village of Takoma PARK
there would be little trouble in making
prompt delivery of 1t; and so 1t would De IN
any case where the address of the letter
were given with exactness. But 1t happens
that fully three-fourths Of the letters for
delivery in the country referred to are ad-
dressed, for example, simply to Oak Grove
or Terra Gotta, which may In either case
comprehend a territory of several miles
radius from the point where the post office
was formerly established. On many oc-
casions the boys sent out with iettefs
bearing such superscriptions have con-
sumed hours in attempting to find the ad-
dresses, and sometimes have failed entire
ly. Postmaster Merritt suggests that mucn
of this difficulty may be obviated If the
senders of special delivery letters will ad-
dress them more accurately. The following
examples will give a clear idea of General
Merritt's suggestion: John Smith, Piney
Branch road. near Brightwood, Washing
ton, D. c." or William Brown, 9TH street
road, near Oak Grove, Washington. d. C., ;,
or Thomas Hicks, junction of Blair and
Riggs roads, near Terra Gotta, Washing
ton, D. c." If the person addressed should
be on a farm, it's name, such as Alton
Farm, should be stated in the address: II
the addressee should be residing or stop
ping at some well-known house, such as
Governor Shepherds late residence. Bleak
House, it would be well to give that as a
part of the address.
It is suggested that the senders OF special
delivery letters, for the sake of themselves
and their correspondents, to say nothing or
the little messenger boys, will give atten-
tion to this matter, and endeavor always
hereafter to state with exactitude In the
superscriptions of the letters the places
where they are to go.

Maj. sylvester's Suggestion Respect
ing Site for Station House.

I
Major Richard Sylvester, the super,n-
tendent OF police, has written to the Dis
trict Commissioners stating that August 2
Capt. Beach, the Engineer Commissioner,
after receiving propositions for a station
house site in Tenleytown, directed that
further inquiry be made concerning the
same, as there were some Objectionable
features to those offered. Major Sylvester
states that after diligent examination he
is unable to procure. for reasonable
amount, any other lot located as desired
and as suitable for the purpose
In this connection Major Sylvester for
wards to the Commissioners a letter from
Lieut.. Swindells of the seventh police pre-
cinct, stating that the site offered by l..
r. Shoemaker, on Wisconsin avenue, run
ming through to the proposed extension of
Albemar1e street, appears to be the only
one adapted for the substaton in Tenley-
town, and to be had at a reasonable fig
ure. Major Sylvester says he is of opinion
that the Shoemaker lot is the most desir-
able one, provided the proposed extension
of Albemarle street will permit of lot
being obtained not less than AZ feet front
by 100 feet in depth. To secure this it
may be necessary to purchase $50 feet in
depth, in order to allow for the parking on
Wisconsin avenue and the proposed Albe-
marie street
