BIG FOOT BALL GAME.
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 IL 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 a 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 a 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 a 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.

this case the worst of the kind in the
history Of the nation, not even except
ing the St Louis scandal.
Salisbury few days ago finished a
two years sentence in the Detroit
house of correction on a charge of ac-
cepting bride.

Trade Renort.

Quietness and even repression gov
ern general trade and industry, but
prevailing pessimism can not hide the
fact that some really encouraging
signs are visible Taken as a whole,
general business is rather larger, due
to the expansion in retail trade at the
northwest, where it is favored by cool
er, settled weather, and at the south
west, where an enormous quantity of
cotton is being marketed at excellent
prices. Wholesale trade is still quiet
as a whole, awaiting developments in
price and demand. Export trade seems
to be at last expanding. Exports of
leading products aggregate the sec
ond largest total ever recorded in Oc-
tOber.
The lumber market is irregular
Building activity is favored by the

Wheat, including flour, exports fol

Sofia. NOV. 16.-Boris Sarafof, lead
er of the Macedonian revolutiOnists,
has arrived here and was received
at the railway station by thousands OF
persons, who brought laurel wreaths
and flowers and acclaimed Sarafoh
as a national hero. The Macedonian
leader presented a picturesque APP
pearance. His beard was unkept, his
hair hung in locks and his features
were weatherbeaten. After the deliver
ance of patriotic speeches a procession
was formed and Sarafoff was borne
on the shoulders of his admirers to
the house of his parents. On the way
Sarafoff halted in front of the cathed-
raj and thanked the crowd for the re-
ception, declaring that the revolu-
tionists were not only unconquered,
but that their work was but now be-
ginning.

young officers of Macedonian nation
atty planned to create casus belli by
forcing a conflict on the frontier. The

Prince Ferdinand has opened the
new sobranje and received a great
ovation on his way to and within the
chamber. In the speech from the
throne, after congratulating the coun-

tons, Prince Ferdinand said that
events had occurred during the sum-
mer which compelled the government
to have recourse to an extraordinary
but inevitable military expenditure for
the purpose of securing the integrity
and independence of the fatherland.
The government, the prince said,
would do it's utmost to maintain the
good relations existing with it's great
liberator, Russia, and with other great
powers, and particularly with the
neighbOring states.

WHAT 1T COSTS TO LIVE.
Figures on Expenses in Workmen's
Families


Washington.-The bureau of labor
has issued a bulletin on the cost of
living of workmen's families, showing
that of 25O7 families in S3 states from
which data was obtained, the average
income per family was $S27.19; aver
age expenditure for all purposes,
$76S.54; average expenditure per fam
lily for food, $32690; average size Of
family, 5.Sl persons. The last fig
ure is above the average of private
families in the whole country as shown
by the census of 1900.
The food expense is more than AZ 1-2
per cent of the expenditure for all
purposes. An extended investigation.
covering the years 1S90-1902, shows
that the cost of food reached its high
est in 1892, the average then being
10.9 per cent above the average for
the decade 1S9O-1S99, and an increase
of 161 per cent compared with 1896,
the year of lowest prices. 1t is ru-
mOred as a conservative conclusion
that the increase in the cost Of living
as a whole in 1902, when compared
with the year of lowest prices, was
not over 16.1 per cent, the figure Civ
en- as the increased cost Of food as
shown by this investigation. This as
sumes, of course, always, the purchase
of the same articles and the same
quantities in years of low prices, low
wages and more or less irregular en-
ployment, as in years of higher prices
higher wages and steady employment
