FOOTBALL NEWSOF INTEREST
TALE PLAYERS FIND FAULT
 HITH THE COACHING.

Claim Made That Head Coach Swan
 Doesn't Understand Workings of All
 the POsitIons-changes in Ihe Line
 Yesterdays PractIce-Neys from Other
 GrIdirons.
 The practice of the Yale football squad is growing more acute each day, and the work of the various candidates is looming up prominently for or against them. The struggle for posi- tiOns on the varsity eleven is waged fiercely every afternoon, and the expe- Tienced players of years gone by who are here watching the men are con- vinced of two or three important facts.
 One is that Coach Swan has been given too much work to do. He played end on the team the latter part of last season and did his work we'll. With the workings of the other positions in the line he is not so we'll acquainted, and some of the players are finding fault with the instructions given them by Coach Swan. Some of the line men have been coached in years past by the very best coachers known in football, and they already understand their po- sitions perfectly. Another fact that has been considered by former Yale players is the playing of Shevlin and Kinney. These men are putting up a great game and their work on Wednes- day was superior to that of Hamlin and Goss, whom they supplanted. Neal at end put up the best end game of the day, and these men are to be looked after by coachers from now until the end of the season.
 Yale has great abundance of n1a- terial from which to select a record breaking eleven this year, and the in- terests of football at the university de- mand that only the best men comprise the team; that the coachers understand not one, but all the positions, and that the best men, coached in the best pos sible manner, take a decided brace and play football as victorious Yale teams have played the game in the past

A Slight Mistake.

In Berlin, as in other cities, there are
widows, and one of them recently de-
cided that it was time for her to marry
again, and, therefore, she advertised
for a husband, says the Scotsman. She
received several replies, and, after
carefully studying them, she selected
one which purported to come from a
prosperous country merchant, and
wrote to him, saying that she would be
pleased to meet him at the railroad
station in the Friedrichstrasse at a GER
tain hour. Then she gave a brief but
fiattering description of herself, and
concluded by saying that he could
easily identify her at the railroad sta
ton, for she would have in her hand a
bunch of red roses, and she suggested
that he wear few violets in his but
tonhole.
At the appointed time she went to
the station, and, sure enough, among
the men there was one who wore a few
violets in his buttonhole. He recognized
the widow at once, and yet did not ap-
proach her. She, too, recognized him.
and was ashamed that he and she
should meet in this fashion.
The simple reason was because she
discovered too late that she had made
an appointment with her son, a lad of
Is years.

A Venezuelan Romance.

Of present conditions in Venezuela.
When Mr.. Russell of Massachusetts
was minister to Venezuela, he wrote
Secretary Evarts that the only way to
collect, several hundred thousand dol
lars due a citizen of the United States
was to offer Guzman Blanco, then Pres
ident, third or half of it. That dis
patch got into the newspapers. Venez-
uela was very indignant. Guzman
Blanco handed Mr.. Russell his pass
ports and sent him aboard a steamer of
the Red d Line then lying in the har-
Dor and had him guarded with a squad
of soldiers until the vessel sailed. There
was pretty little romance mixed up
in the episode. Guzman had a favor
tie nephew, who was the commander
in-chief of his army and in training to
succeed him as President. The nephew
was engaged to marry Mr.. Russell's
daughter and when he heard of how
his prospective father-in-law had been
treated he went to the palace to re-
monStrate Guzman told the bold lover
that he could choose between his Yam
kee sweetheart and the destiny that
awaited him in Venezuela. The young
man broke his sword over his knee

head. dashed out of the palace, col
lected a few of his cronies, got a long
rope, pulled down several statues Guz-

Now that Marconi has succeeded In
sending long messages across the ocean
IL is safe to say that the number who
thinks that it will never be possible to
cross the ocean in airships is much less
. than it was. There We're few-very
few-who, a dozen years ago, believed
the time would ever come when aerial
telegraphy would be brought into prac-
teal use. and fewer still who would ad-
NIT the possibility of sending messages
across the Atlantic ocean without wires
by means of electricity.
year ago Marconi succeeded in
sending a message of single letter
from a station at Cape Breton, New
Foundland, to Cornwall. England, but
the announcement of his success was
not fully accepted. 1t was said that
perhaps he was mistaken, and that if
he had succeeded in getting a message
Of a single letter. the chances were
against the wireless system ever be-
coming a practical success.
1t is announced. however. that the
wireless line will soon be opened for
business, and there is no doubt that
within a short time messages win be
received by the Marconi method as reg
ularly and as satisfactorily as by the
cables. The statement has been made
that by the wireless method as many
as 1000 words an hour can be trans
mitted. If that can be done now when
the method is in it's infancy, what may
we expect of it when it is improved, as
it will undoubtedly be?
The world does not seem to be as
greatly moved by the results of
Marconi's efforts as it was by
Morses discovery of the telegraph
or Bells discovery of the telephone,
but, in some respects, it is almost as
great subject of wonder. The world
has got into the way of expecting great
things. however, and does not seem to
regard anything as beyond the bounds
of possibility.
There is no reason to expect that the
wireless method will take the place of
the cable. 1t will supplement it., as
electricity does gas and steam-that is,
unless it is developed to a much greater
degree than it now seems probable, in
which case it may take the place of the
telegraph line for land messages and
the cable for sea messages.

WHICH is THE TRUE sToRy,

The British and the Germans do
not seem to be particularly proud of
their act in sinking the Venezuelan
war vessels. There are two stories
about the matter, beth admit
ting that there was no resistance on
the part of the Venezuelans. Accord
ing to the first story, and this story
is confirmed by special dispatches to
the New York Herald, the vessels. i'm
mediately after their capture, were
towed to sea by the British and Ger
man launches and there sunk. The
Herald's story is that they were scut
tied. The effort to make it appear that
the vessels were of no account. will
1t is said, utterly fail They were
small but they were we'll fitted for the
purpose for which they were used.
namely, to patrol the coast to prevent
smuggling.
The New York World prints a story.
alleged to be from an eye witness. in
which the statement is made that the
British and Germans were compelled
to sink the ships for the reason that
prevent them from running away 1t
seems, according to this eve witness,
that just as the capture of the ships
was effected. a signal was made from
the German consulate that the consul
late was being attacked, and that there
was immediate need of marines. The
capture was made by the German
ship Panther. The Venezuelan vessels
had none to spare. Therefore the
had but one spare one. Therefore the
Venezuelan ships could not be an
chored. Not knowing exactly what to
do under the circumstances it was
thought best to sink the captured
ships.
This is a very interesting story. but
is it true? IT will take an official re-
port to convince the public that it is
Is II not rather strange that the Vene-
zuelan ships were travelling about the
sea without anchors? And. even If they
hadn't anchors. what was to prevent
few British and German sailors from
manning them and caring for them
just as the Venezuelan sailors had been
caring for them? Surely all OF the
men on the launches and ships Of the
allies were not wanted for the protec-
tion Of the German consulate.
In their eagerness 20 capture some
thing, TO make a show OF doing some
thing, the Germans and British COM
miited an act which was not credita-
bic 20 them. and for which they are
now trying 20 nnd an excuse. The Ven
ezuelan gunboats or warships or what
ever they were, were practically harm
less. There was no good reason for
destroying them.
