Brunswick, Me, Nov. 23.-tSpeciaD.-
The sophomore-freshman football game
was played on the Whittier athletic field,
Saturday afternoon. resulting in a victo-
ry for the freshmen by score of 10 to ).
The game was hotly contested and as in
teresting as many Varsity contests. The
SophomOreS undereStimated the strength
of their rivals. and to their cost. The
freshmen went in to win and practicei
until their team work would have done
credit to any team. Winslow and Chap
man. the two halfbacks, had played to-
gether the greater part of the season;
Porter had also. played on the Varsity.
and they worked together effectively.
SChofieid. Parker, Brown and Cunning
ham have played on the second eleven
and showed up well. Parker, the full
back. and Bradford at quarter were both
headv and strong men. The freshmen
had spent a great deal of time in prep
aration for the game and their fine team
work showed it," The -sophomores had
three Varsity men. Phiioon, Finn and
Hatch. Larrabee ard Lewis played on
the second eleven. Hatch had bad an
kle and went out after the first half.
Ryan. who recently came here from
Princeton. where he was on the football
squad. did fire work. The sophomore
team had heavy line but the freshmen

more than they could handle. NearIy

There are Catholics OF the old school,

Ruliro Vice strono In Death.

Tales Of the prison-house generally
come from chaplains, and make for
edification. Not altogether consoling,
perhaps from that point of view. but
interesting to students of all-round
human nature is little episode which
lately happened at the grimest jail
in the London district In the prison
infirmary was man who had served
many successive terms for theft, and
who was now wasted away and at the
point of death from consumption. How
he fingered on was puzzle to the
doctor, who, with his stethoscope,
leant over him for last time. AS he
did SO. he saw tremendous shadow
OF hand raised TO HIS waistcoat peck

under the dying mans pillow. II was
the thief's last effort: smile Of
triumph passed over his face and he
was dead.

HOW DAVIS MANAGED.
Method In Which the Washington
Monument Was Saved.

Method In Which the Washington
Monument Was Saved.
If, says the New York Tribune,
there is man in the world who might
restore the placidity of Venice, which
has been so disturbed by the fall of
the Campanile and the precarious con-
dition of it's other famous types of
architecture, he is the new American
major general who is shortly to re-
lieve Chaffee of the Philippine COM
mand. For it was George w. Davis
who saved the Washington Monument
from destruction and by the applica-
ton of his ingenuity, solved funda-
mental problems in his unique, offhand
manner that had baffied the highest
engineering skill of modern times. AT
ter the great shaft to the Father of His
Country had risen slowly to the height
of 1877 feet and rested there like
rough factory chimney, an unfinished
eyesore for 20 years, Congress deter
mined to complete it, and gave the job
to the army. Built on the edge of
the Potomac marsh, as unstable as the
soil of the Queen of the Adriatic, the
shaft had already leaned FIVE feet. out
of plum, and nobody could be found
to set it straight and insure its per-
manent stability until Davis, lately a
quartermaster, then an infantry cap
tain, volunteered to lift the hundreds
of tons of masonry back to the per-
pendicular and build under 1t foun-
dation that would permit the lifting
Of its top to the highest point ever at
tanned by a monument erected by
man. To hold the soft earth in place
lie built huge barrel hundred feet
II diameter around the base and drove
t deep into the earth below the tidal
level. He bound together the in
closed mass with piles and braces,
weighing it all down with stones and
concrete, until he had secured sta
bility that would endure forever. Then
he wedged up the monument and put
an everlasting foundation under 1t and
finally turned the work over to the
engineers under Colonel Casey, who
eventually set the capstone 555 feet
above the earth. Up to this day the
great structure has not moved hairs
breadth. and frequent inspection de-
monstrates how wonderfully Davis
planned. But as he cannot be spared
from Manila to save Venice, perhaps
it would be as well for the Venitians
to come to Washington and study his
triumph.
