NEW WINKLE
CARLISLE INDIAN TEACHES 'VAfa.
siTY Foof BALLlsTs A
new TRICK.
Ran Er2pty Hane.ed, and Made
A Touchdown.

In the game OF foot ball at Cam
bridge, Mass, last Saturday, between
Harvard and the Carlisle Indians, (
new trick was sprung by means OF
which the Indians came very near car
rying Off victory over the big univer-
Sity.
Dillon, the left half back of the In
dans, caught the ball On Carlisle's
five-yard line at the kickoff in the
second half, and aided by the close
interference of his team mates hid
the ball under his sweater behind his
back, and ran the entire length OF
the field empty handed for a touch
down. None Of the opposing players
attempted to stop the half back, for
no one supposed that he had the bail
The run of Dillon was the feature OF
the game, and never before in its
history has such play been made
on the foot ball field. The instant he
caught Tile Dali tllG cIllIC Sui iioA&
team clustered about him, so that no
one could see what was being done.
Harved threw themselves on the
massed Indians just as the latter had
begun to move down the field well
punched. While the crimson players
were searching for the ball Dillon
came out of the crowd entirely empty
handed and had gone thirty or forty
yards before any one realized that
he had the ball
There is apparently no rule cover
ing this trick, so the play stood. Ihls
made the score II to 0 in favor OF the
Indians as they had already scored
before, and the Harvard team had to
take a big brace to pull out ahead.
The crimson managed to score twice
in the last half and won the game by
a score of u to IL. The trick will go
down in history as one of the excep'
tional plays in foot ball.

TURNED IT DOWN
FORMER PRESIDENT CLEVELAND
BAUKS ON CHICAGO MANS
PROPOSITION.
Refuses to Become the Official Booster
of Political Novel, and Roasts
the Author.

Chicago. Nov. 2.-Former President
Cleveland may be able to tell the diff
ference between a condition and
theory when they confront him, but his
intellect balks when It Is called upon
to distinguish joke from serious
business proposition. He has declin-
ed, in all gravity and earnestness, the
jesting proposal of a Chicago humor-
ist that he become the literary press
agent to work" the country in the
interest of Elliott Flowers new book.
and has administered to Mr. Flower a
fatherly rebuke for his ignorance Of
the habits of unemployed statesmen.
Some days ago Mr.. Flower, remem-
bering that the press agent of local
theater nearly hired Prof. Triggs to
be the advance agent for Romeo
and Juliet" combination last season,
wrote to the former president and
asked him if he would care to exploit
his forthcoming story of rural life on
a Michigan fruit farm. The Princeton
sage had been good enough, during his
recent visit to Chicago, to commend
Mr.. Flowers political novel, The
Spokesman" is a faithful picture of pol
itic5 in a big town, and the author,
having profited in tue increase in his
- fil ,irnH IN
former president again. Sc he wrote
q letter to him, submitting what he
considered side-spltting PROPOSE
ton.
Mr.. Flower was surprised today to
receive this reply;
Princeton, n J.. Oct. %. 1903
Mr.. Elliott Flower, ESD, Chicago, H.:
My Dear Sr--I have received your
letter of the 10Th inst, and confess
that l read it with great deal or
amazement. | can hardly believe you
are in earnest in your proposition that
I should engage in the exploitation of
your book. If your letter was writ.
ten in good faith you must excuse me
for saying that you have very con-
fused ideas concerning the manner in
which former president should spend
his time. Yours very truly,
GROVER CLEVELAND.
The ex-president had very carefully
changed would to should in the
last line, but he permitted the "Mr.'
and Esquire" both to remain in the
address.

THEN AND NOW.

Some days ago the Supreme court
decided that the taxation of the
income Of judicial officers was un-
constitutional. The judges decided
that they themselves should not pay
3 tax on their fat salary. The
democratic papers said the judges
were "honest but wrong" This
was o democratic court.
When the Supreme court decided
that Theophjlus White was entitled
to his salary for work done for the
State las 1t was unlawful to abolish
his office before his term expired)
the democratic press said the Re-
publican judges were guilty of
"high crimes and misdemeanors,"
and cost the State thousands of dol
lars trying to impeach these judges
The law passed by the legislature
ordering the State Treasurer not to
pay White his salary was in contro-
vention of the we'll known case of
Hoke VS. Henderson. Granting that
the judges were wrong In ordering
the State Treasurer to pay White
his salary there was no evidence of
corruption.
The democratic judges cited the
same case Of Hoke W. Henderson
when they decided they should not
pay tax on their salary.
The difference in the two case .
are the Republican judges were de-
Gliding on the case Of another and
their decision did not effect their
own salaries at all. While in the
latter case the democratic judges
were deciding on their own case As
we'll as one or two others.
But still the democratic press says
the democratic judges were "honest
but wrong" and the Republican and
Populist judges were guilty OF
"high crimes and misdemeanors."
Gentle readers we leave case with
you.

1.-THE men who did most to elimi-
nate the ignorant negro vote have
been sneaking around at Weldon
and putting negroes on the registra-
ton books. If their party shall not
repudiate them, they will ruin it."-
Biblical Recorder.
Who is there in the democratic
party to repudiate these men? Have
they any leaders that wnot do the
same thing If they see the negro can
help them carry their point?
The democrats not only had the
names Of illiterate negroes put on
the registration books prior to q
recent election in Ashville, but on
election day put their arms around
the negro and carried him to the
polls and voted him.
