OREGON TEAM BEATEN 4.

Seattle, Nov. H.-In the hardest
fought gridiron battle that has been
seen In the state of Washington for
years, Washington this afternoon de-
feated Oregon by score of to 5. The
game was played in a wind that was
all but gale and an icy rain. The
victory was decisive and the difference
in the strength of the two teams is
greater than the score indicates. Ore
gon for nearly the whole of the game
had the wind directly at her back, and
Templeton's kicking was largely re-
sponsible for the fact that Washington
did not make larger score.

WAS A CRUEL JOKE.

He is proprietor of a vaudeville thea
ter and that he is fond of playing
FRANKS on others is by no means sur
prising. Still it was cruel to select his
own bartender and police sergeant
as the victims of this particular stunt.
The police officer is partial to good
vaudeville performances and usually
drops in at the hall before taking the
night desk 1t is his custom to leave
his lunch behind the bar while watch
ing the soubrettes trip the light fantas-
tic. Now he is sorry that he did 1t and
promises that it will not happen again.
The bartender. too, swears that never
again will he own more than one pair
of shoes at a time.
But how was either to know that the
vaudeville theater man would destroy
a new shoe, and would throw away a
nice piece of ham that was sleeping
between two pieces of bread, and not
interfering with anybody. The police
officer made the discovery during the
early morning hours when he pulled
out a tooth in an effort to get through
the sole of the bartender's shoe. He
said things and then he tried to call
up the vaudeville theater over the
'phone-but it was after hours.

A PLAIN CLOTHES MAN
WANT TO BE.

To be a detective-that Is the song
Supt. Garfunkel hears.
1t is heard by the chief of
police of every city in the country
in the good old summer time, and al
most every other old time. but to want
to be a whole detective force is about
the limit.
Yet there is a man in neighboring
tank town who desires to be whole
bunch of plain clothes men in one,
and with this object in view he ad-
dressed a rather amusing communlca-
ton to Chief of Police Garfunkel.
The letter is funny from the address
on the envelope to the signature. 1t is
addressed to the "Chief Police, U. S.,
Savannah, Ca" Then the hilarity
starts in this fashion:
II would like to be detective force
in this section and if u please send
me how much it would cost for Badge
& papers, 1 would like to work for you
anywhere in the U. S. If you want to
get my reputation on such business
write to ................ the old sheriff
of.......... Co. Ga. Please answer at
once and write what the cheapest l
can get it at, have no other business
l will close"
The name and address of the APP
plicant for plain clothes honors is with
held for obvious reasons. The super
sntendent of police realizes that 1t
would be a mark for any old CRATER
who could connect with the man in
the tank town.

ONE TIME THAT "F0UR
FLUSHING" FAILED.

He was the ecclesiastical man, but
he couldn't help it. He didn't ask to
be put in charge of the department.
1t was simply thrust upon him. OF
course it was necessary for him to
keep in touch with the ministers and
to wear a long face-at times. But
two great religious conventions fol-
lowed by a series of revival services
are enough to wear away man OF
steel or at least a reporter who is
playing a part Still the ecclesiastical
man continued to throw front, and
he was there with the goods every
time the evangelist told him OF the
good that had been done during the
first week of the meetings.
But something happened and the
spell was broken. 1t was in the LOBBY
at the De Soto. The newspaper man
with the clerical face had just refused
the eVangelist's invitation to dinner
on the ground that he was pressed Tor
time. About the same time a thirsty
friend and the sporting editor passed
on their way downstairs.
Have something, George" suggest
ed the friend, half jestingly.
This was too much. Pulling his hair
and explaining to the evangelist that
he would have to keep a pressing en-
gagement he rushed frantically down.
stairs, joined the light-hearted pair
and began drowning his sorrows.
1t would have been all right, but the
evangelist saw where his steps led
and the "four-f1ush" of the ecclesias-
teal reporter was like chaff in the
wind

TO BUILD HOSPITAL
SURGEON COMES.

A representative of the Marine Hos
pital Department will be in Savannah
within day or two to look after the
matter of beginning work on the ma
rine hospital, to be erected in this city
at the site on Abercorn and York
streets. This representative is Dr.
Stephen D. Brooks of Washington. He
has been assigned to this city perma-
nently, it is understood, and proba bly,
will have charge of the hospital after
its completion.
He is said to be very energetic man,
and he is expected TO take hold of mat
ters in connection with the hospital and
rush them through, so that the build
ing will be completed at a very early
date-that is at as early date as is
consistent and possible with good work.
The Marine Hospital Service has never
before been represented in Savannah
by man who stands so high in grade
as does DR.. Brooks, none of the former
representatives being of higher grade
than assistant. The arrival of the ex-
pected visitor will be looked forward
to with much eagerness by many, who,
because of the many delays experienced
in connection with securing the hospi-
tai, have begun to despair of its COM
pletion.

TERMS OF SETTLEMENT
OF EGAN-CONWAY CASE.

After Making Debts and Credits Es-
tate Was Divided Equally.
The hearing In the case of Marie
Conway Oemler and Miss Conway
against Michael Egan and his wife
came to an abrupt ending yesterday,
when, at the opening of the court, it
was announced that a settlement was
in contemplation. Accordingly the
case was later withdrawn from the
consideration of the jury.
BY the terms of the settlement the
charges of fraud imputed to the Egans
are withdrawn, and the realty and
money divided between the parties liti-
giant. The assets of the old lady, for
whose estate the litigation was insti-
tuted, consisted, at the time that she
went to board with the Egans, of two
houses and lots worth about 1920 and
81, 300 in cash. BY the terms of the
agreement, a settlement in cash of half
of the value of these assets, less ex-
penses incurred by the Egans, was &C
cepted by the Conways. s
To the value of the realty and the
amount of money on hand is added the
income of the property for two years,
together with the interest on the mon
ey, so that the amount to be divided
was about $4,000. From this was de-
Quoted the expenses incurred by the
Egans, including the board of the old
lady, her medicine and doctors BILL
funeral expenses, and the amount ex-
pended in the improvement of the
property; so that by the settlement
each party received about s., 000
There are no funds now in the
Southern Bank, the $4,000 formerly
deposited there having been long ago
withdrawn. The settlement was in
duced largely by the outlook for pro-
longed litigation, which would of ne
cessity waste the estate.

There they go! It's always like that

out you can hear the katydids and To-

there are so many trees and squares
like being in the country almost

And to-day he will discover that the
chirping of the locusts and katydids
was real enough-but made by some
sharp Yankee who devised a little
tin toy as an advertising freak. and
all the freight agents and half the
citizens were playing locust on this
special occasion.
