cry is the opening OF a mine, the
building Of a mill, and the employ

must live and have their homes and
provide for their families, so the town
is started. Its location leads to the
further development of mines within
its district, and these mines become
tributary to the town. Instead of
founding smaller villages the popula-
ton of the surrounding country be

Eighteen tOuchdowns in sixty min

their game at Chicago.
The boys from the Chicago school
had been led to think they were TO
have a game of football, but before the
first ten minutes Of play we're over it
became apparent that what the spec
tators were Witnessing was not a game
of football, but race against time, a
sort of cross country affair, in which
the chief handicap was snow storm

When the run ended the score was
Jos for Hyde Park and 0 for Brooklyn
In the two halves OF thirty minutes
each the boys of the blue and white
had run past the century mark and es-
tablished new record for Hyde Park
teams. Nearly two points per minute
was the time record established.

The game was generally regarded as

could not be considered such. While
Hyde Park had beaten all its rivals in
Chicago, and doubtless could treat any
high school in the west to a decisive
defeat, the fact remains Hyde Park
had not done so. The Brooklyn Poly
Props record was not so clear as
that Of Hyde Park and it had played
few games outside of Greater New
York. However, the same was a con
test between two representative teams
OF two sections of the country and be

thought he ought to be tender In
fact, however, his meat was almost
useless-lean, tough, stringy and very
dark in color This was difficult to
understand. and the guides, for some
reason, were unable to offer an ex-
PLANTATION. However, l learned the
reason later. 1t appears that during
the mating season the fawns are
weaRed. The old stag, driving the
fawn away from the mother, will
strike him with his horns and chase
him half a mile. As soon as the stag
gives up the chase and turns back to
the doe the fawn will return; then
the stag will chase him again This
is kept up for eight or ten days. with
the result that, from worry, violent
exercise and the change of diet, the
meat of the fawn becomes for time
unpalatable."

Historic Sanctuary Is
Cathedral of Denmark

The great cathedral OF Denmark is
situated about eighteen miles west Of
Copenhagen in the little town of Ros-
kilde, where in former days was a
ROYAL residence. Roskilde is on the
main railway line running across Zea-
land to Kursour, the little port on the
Great Belt, from whence the boats
sail for Kiel and Nyborg. 1t is a very
quiet little town OF 5000 inhabitants

King Harald Blaatand in the tenth
century, was of wood. This was fol.

present building is believed to have
been commenced in 1910, when Peter
Suneson was bishop Of Roskilde.

Western Mining Towns,
Built in Boom Times

A rich mine of gold, silver or cop
per is discovered; it is developed, the
ore is mined and milled. and this is
the foundation of a little city. The
birth and progress of cities among
the mountains of the West from be-
ginnings like this is one of the most
interesting and picturesque phases of
American growth. In other parts Of
the country are found towns which de-
pend entirely or largely for their popu-
lation and their existence on a single
industry. Health foods are made in
Battle Greek, Mich; shoes come from
Lynn. Mass; collars are nearly all
manufactured in Troy, n. Y: Glovers-
vile. N. Y, is the glove city of the
country, and there are several other
instances of the same fact; but no
cities are so exclusively devoted to a
single industry as the mining cities
of the west. Denver itself was at
the outset little more than a great
mining camp; Cripple Creek is a min
ing center; single mine, the Ana
