BIG FOOT BALL GAME.
Princeton Beat Yale-Harvard Lost
to Dartmouth.

Princeton Beat Yale-Harvard Lost
to Dartmouth.
New Haven, Conn.-Yale went down
to defeat before the men of Princeton
Saturday in the annual football game
on the Yale field, by a score Of II to
6. The contest, which was one Of the
most spectacular ever witnessed on
Yale's gridiron, was stubbornly fought
throughout. Until the last five min
utes of play, when Dewitt, the Prince
ton captain kicked q marvellous goal
from placement and broke the tie
score of to 6, the result was in doubt.
Yale made one touchdown, from which
goal was kicked. Princeton equaled
Yale's record, and added a goal from
placement. At the end of the first
half the score was tied and close OBJ
servers looked for Yale victory, but
the New Haven men were unable to
get the pigskin over the line again,
while Dewitt's kicking ability gave to
his team victory.
While Princeton deserved to win,
Yale deserved to lose, for PrincetOn's
scores were practically the direct re-
suits of Yale's fumbling. Yale's small
score, moreover, was due to fumbling
equally as fatal.
Philadelphia.-In a game marked
by fumbles and penalties, the Carlisle
Indians defeated the University Of
Pennsylvania by the score of 16 to 6.
Cambridge.-A defeat more pitiful
than any recorded by the friends Of
Harvard and one in which there was
not a feature to give comfort to the
undergraduates Of the university, was
administered to the Harvard eleven
by Dartmouth Saturday afternoon. The
final score was II to in favor of the
New Hampshire college team. Har-
ward displayed great weakness.

| The next day, in spite of the weather
prophets prediction of snow, dawned
| clear and brilliant as the dying smile of
Indian summer. BY II o'clock Mrs. Mis-
bett was dressed in her best silk and
cap, with the turkey browning beauti-
fully in the oven and the cranberry tarts
doing credit to themselves as we'll as to
their maker, the table set, the fire high
heaped with cracking logs and the plates
dressed with coronals of autumn leaves
Aunt Constance, tall, prfm maiden
lady OF uncertain age, stood before the
bedroom looking glass arranging her Golf
fure. Ida, in a blue dress with late
autumn rose in her hair, was tripping
hither and thither as light footed and
helpful as half dozen household fairies
merged into one, while Mrs. Nisbett
stood regarding her with a loving eye,
murmuring to herself:
| well, we'll, it seems like it was the
Lords will to deny us of just what we
most want, but if l had a daughter I
could wish she was like Ida"
| AS the old kitchen clock struck Mrs.
| Nisbett, looking from the window, gave
little cry.
"There he comes-4there comes Joel,
Ida ran into the bedroom.
When she returned, Mrs. Nisbett was
| clasped in the arms Of tail, handsome
man of four or five and twenty.
"Lida." said the proud matron, etriv-
| ing to disengage herself from the affec-
tomato clasp, 'this is my son Stephen,
and-why, what's the matter?"
For Stephen had dropped her hands
| with an exclamation Of surprise and
amazement, and Ida stood there glowing
crimson.
| Ida! Why, mother. this n a sur
prise indeed that you have prepared for
mew
II preparedw echoed the astonished
old lady. "Well, that's a good un, when
I'm ten times as much surprised as you
be! Ida, what does this mean?'
ut MEANS" said Ida, with a demure
smile-she was beginning to recover her
scattered self-possession-"it means that
this is the gentleman I am to be married
to-"
Stephen cried Mrs. Nisbett, SIS Ida
to be your wife?"
"She has given me her promise to that
effect, at least" said Stephen, looking
proudly down upon his lovely little
fancee.
"Well, If it don't beat all how queer
things do happen" said Mrs. Nisbett,
her face radiant. "And you've been liv-
in neishbor to me these six weeks and
l never knowsd It. Ida, why didn't
you tell me?"
Because I never dreamed that Ste
phen Risingham, my betrothed western
lover, was anything to Mrs. Nisbett,"
said Ida, laughing.
'1There tits, now" calculated the farm
-. "How was she 10 know that he was
only my nephew, adopted when his par,
ents died, twenty good years ago1 We've
always called him son, and he's always
been 4 son to us. But Ida didn't know.
Old woman, what do you say to Ste
phen's wife?"
Mn. Nisbett clasped Ida to her
heart.
Il do say" she calculated, "this Is the
thankfullest Thanksgivin' I ever lived to
see!'-New York Daily News.
