made two minutes and fifteen seconds after
the opening of the first half, when Hart,
with splendid interference, tore through
left tackle for forty yards and planted the
leather behind West Virginia's goal posts
Buckley made a sensational run of sixty
yards just after the second kickoff, but the
Georgetown boys were unable to follow up
their lead. Hardisty made two runs of
twenty-five and thirty yards respectively
and played a good game, Notwithstanding
his lack of experience, Hart was good
ground gamer, usual, and Thompson
made several good gains. The reason for
taking Thompson out Of the game in the
early part of the first half was not appar-
ent.
Lewis, Smith and Casio carried off the
honors for the visitors, and they hit their
opponents line for good gains on several
occasions. Fumbles at critical times proved
their undoing
The play was unusually slow. and 1T was
dusk before the game was finished. dis
pute arose as to the time of the second
half the watches of the two timers dis
agreeing. The ball was on West Vfrginia,s
three-yard line, and it is likely that George
town would have had another touchdown
to her credit had the game continued. The
referee however, decided to accept the time
as shown by the watch Of the West Vir-
ginia timer and declared the game over.

ON THE GOLF LINKS.
DR.. Gray Won the Match Against
nBogey'' at Chew Chase.

The DOGGY" match at Chevy Chase Sat
urday afternoon was a most interesting
affair, the crack players of the club re-
framing from playing In order to encourage
the younger enthusiasts at the game. The
weather was perfect for golf the course In
harmony and the gallery was larger than
usual.
The DOGGY of the Chevy Chase course
was recently reduced to 70, but the old fig
ures of 70 were restored for the match Sat
urday. The play was very good all things
considered, the putting on the splendid
greens being unusually accurate. DIR. w.
NJ Gray and Marvin Thompson were tied
for first honors, both being up on the
mythical colonel. These two gentlemen be-
long to the class of steady players, and
their work Saturday was along this line of
work. To make the course in II is some
thing Of a feat, and there were several
others who were close up with their scores
Later on Messrs. Gray and Thompson play
ed off the tie, the former winning.
The prize was offered by Mr.. Ormsby

FALL CUNNING SEASON.
Opened Saturday, but Law Was Vio-
lated in Several Instances.

Saturday was the first day of the fall
cunning season, and the presence of quail
ON the benches In the local markets early
In the morning indicated that the law had
been violated by those who were able to
furnish birds so soon in the season. There
was no violation of law on part of the
dealers, for they did not receive the birds
until they were permitted by law to have
them in their possession. For so early in
the season, the birds were in splendid con-
dftion, and there was fairly good demand
for them. The price asked was So so
dozen While the season opened in the Dis
trict Saturday. IT will not open in some Of
the counties Of Maryland until the 18th of
the month. In Charles county the seassn
opened Saturday, as 1t did also In St.
Mary's and Calvert counties. Shooting in
Prince Georges county will not be pei nit
ted until the 10th, while in some other
counties the season does not open until five
days later. Scores of gunners went out of
the city Saturday afternoon to the counties
where the season had already opened, and
good sport was promised Some of them
who returned during the week may. how
ever, encounter trouble in bringing birds
through the counties where the season IS
still closed. The penalties in the counties
for violations Of the game laws are severe
Two gunners who spent Saturday on the
field near Chesapeake Beach bagged Al
birds. Many young rabbits have already
been slaughtered In the nearby counties,
and they are said to be in fine condition.

RELATIONS WITH CUBA.
Minister Quesada Insists That the Best
of Feeling Exists.

Senior Quesada, Cuban minister to the
United States in commenting on the nego-
tiations now being conducted for COM
mercial treaty between Cuba and this coun-
try. said:
1.-The reciprocity treaty is a purely COM
mercial convention and has nothing to do
with any other political questions which
may arise between the two governments
and has absolutely nothing to do with the
Plat amendment. The Cuban government
has been studying the draft of the treaty
submitted by Secretary Hay, and has been
consulting the different interests In the Is
lands. and the custom house receipts as
well. and in due time will return 1t with
observations and notifications deemed for
the interest of Cuba, and which at the same
time will not hurt the interests Of the
United States. 1t has been shown by past
experience, during the reciprocity arrange
ment under Mr.. Blaine, that the commerce
between both countries materially in
creased, and 1t is expected that under any
reciprocal arrangement between the two
countries the figures will be still higher tina n
they were ten years ago. when they reached
upward of 100000, COO
Mr.. Quesada said that the best of feeling
existed between the Cubans and Americans
the proof of 1t being that every steamer ar
irving at Havana and other Cuban ports
brought great many American investors
who not only were putting money in the Is
land but were establishing themselves
there. He spoke of the popularity of Min
lister Sauiers. and the gratitude of the Gu
bans to the United States for the services
which were rendered.
When asked regarding the proposed coal
ing stations In Cuba Mr.. Quesada said that
four days before President Mckinley was
shot he had. at the instance of Estrada
Palma, gone to Canton and secured from
the President a solemn promise that while
he was chief executive he would not give
his consent to the establishment OF a naval
station at Havana. and that President
Roosevelt knew of this promise. Continu-
ing. Mr. Quesada said that President Palma
never would have gone to Havana, the Gu
ban capital, where diplomatic corps was
established. while a foreign flag was flying
over the city.
The minister also said that he could not
see the necessity for coaling station at
Cienfuegos. which had been recommended
by Admiral Bradford, chief of the bureau
of equipment, in view of It's proximity to
Guantanamo. which also was recommended
as coaling station.

FOURSOME MATCHES.
Messrs. Carusi and Leaven Leaders at
Columbia Golf Club.

The four-ball foursome matches at the
Columbia Golf Club Saturday were closely
contested and successful in every way. The
gallery was large and almost the total
membership roll was present on the
course during the afternoon. The superb
weather was a great incentive for the golf
ers to get out or the beautiful course, and
many remarkable approach and putt shots
were made, owing to the fine condition of
the turf
Messrs. Eugene D.. Carusi and B. Ashby
Leavell with a net score of 49, won the

The foot ball game between the elevens
of Georgetown and the University of West
Virginia, played on the Georgetown field
last Saturday afternoon, was won by the
Blue and Gray by score OF to o. Nei-
Their team did itself Justice in the game,
which was characterized by many fumbles
and misplays. Georgetown particularly
was in poor form, and the men seemed UNI
able to get together at times when a touch
down might have been made. Toward the
close of the second half, however. the Blue
and Gray took a brace and went down the
field for big gains. but 1t was too late to
add to the score.

so poor at this season of the year, with the
water in such good condition. Anglers have

tried their hands up the river for bass of
the small-mouth variety and down the river
for plymouth bass. They have returned
from both places with the same story.
With but few exceptions the anglers have
had poorer luck this season than usual, and
those who have made catches have COM
planned of the size of the fish. The best
catches reported this season were made in
the canal near log wall level, a short dis
lance this side of Great Falls Perch fish
ing has been exceptionally good this fall,
white perch being particularly plentiful.
Some Of the anglers are under the impress
sion that the scarcity of bass is dug to the
presence in the river of so many big Mis-
sisSppi catfish. These fish have been
caught in large numbers up the river
where the water is very swift, and some
anglers think there is much sport in
landing them as there is in taking bass
from the river.
