ON THE GRIDIRoN


 One of the most important football games of the season will be played at the Driving park tomorrow afternoon, when the Merrimac Athletic club and the Acorns meet in battle for su- premacy. Much interest is centered in the game. Neither team has been de feated this season. Both teams are seeking the championship of the state and defeat means for either its elim- 1nation from the field. It is claimed that the Acorns is a faster team than the Bridgeport Athletic club team. which played here last Sunday. If it is it's a hummer. The Merrimac man agement will put a strong team in the held. There will be several changes in the lineup of two weeks ago. The manager expects hard and fast game and has prepared for it. Both teams are confident of winning. The Acorns will be accompanied by about 200 root CTS who will have punches of the long green to wager on their team. They will find many takers.

 H. K. Huntington and E. H. Harri- man are interested with Edwin Hay- ley, T. F. Oakes, Frederick F. Eld- ridge and other New Workers in sym dicate to get railway concessions from China to build several important lines, says a San Francisco dispatch to the Chicago Inter Ocean. One agent of the syndicate, A. W. Bash, has gone to China to secure the concessions. An other representative of the combine, R. NJ. Hopper of Philadelphia, who was in San Francisco on h:s way to join Bash, says the outside world generally believes that the reverence of the Chi nese for the graves of their ancestors constitutes great obstacle to the building of railroads in China.
 This is a mistake he says. If necessary, they will put the bodies in new graves, but they charge a pretty sum for violence to their feelings. They have an ere to the. main chance

THE DIAMOND.
Mike Thompson May Manage an East
 ern League Team.

ern League Team.
 Mike Thompson, the well known manager of athletes at Georgetown, was in Washington last week shaking hands with old friends. He was to have refereed the game of football at Norfolk Saturday, but got behind a wreck on the Southern road and was too late to oficiate. MT Thompson has had a busy season refereeing foot ball, and has several more big games on his hands for the eastern colleges. Reports from several points in the Eastern Baseball league are to the eff feet that he is among the possibilities as a manager for two different clubs in, that organization next season. ,>.
 The New York American league baseball club is taking advantage of the mild weather to fill in the hollow in right field, which job when com pleted will make the grounds the most spacious in the country. Eighty feet of the hollow beyond the inside fence has been filled in since the season closed and work is going on daily. "A few more weeks of this sort of weath- CT and We will have playing room clear back to the fence along, Broad way" said President Gordon last night. We are putting in 200 loads of dirt a day. You will see Keeler do ing lots better fielding next year when he won't be hampered by that inside fence. Our team as it stands is very strong, though we have an eye out for advantageous deals. We are not af- ter George Davis and do not want him. Our infield is all right as it is-Ganzel, Williams. Elberfeld and Conroy-Rnd there isn't man on it that We would trade for Davis. Anderson, Fultz and Keeler will make an air-tight out field. Besides Beville and Zeluskey for catchers, we have a new man named Kleinow, who everybody says is all right and for pitchers, Chesbro, Griffith, Wolfe, Bliss, Puttmann How ell, Deering and Tannehill. I don't know of any trade involving Tanne- hill. We have more pitchers than we need, but I suppose Griffith will hold on to most of them until spring practice to see how they show up."

CRUSADE ON WASHERS
Scheme For Protecting Girl
 Workers Tn Denver. ..
FAIR SEX TO PATROL STREETS.

A Systematic Plan of Gathering Ev-
 idence to Secure Conviction I'm
 Court of Those Who Make "Goo-
 goo Eyes"-Eoung Women Workers
 tion Idea.
 Miss Louise Lee Hardin, president of the Denver Women's Business club, has started to put into execution 8 plan for the extinction of the masher, says the Kansas City Times, The ob- ject of this is to protect the girls who work in shops and offices.
 The plan is a farreaching one. It consists, first, of patrol of the streets by score of young women, who will keep q vigilant outlook for the street ''masher" and when found report his offense to the nearest police officer. In addition, Miss Hardin proposes to or ganize the young women in the offices and shops on mutual protection plan. In this way when a girl has a complaint against her employer she can rely on the assistance of many of her fellow employees to prove her charges.
 The details are being carefully work ed out, and before Christmas shoppers swarm the streets the women expect to drive the "mashers" from their fa- miliar haunts.
 Miss Hardin is confident of her scheme, and woe betide him who at tempts to tiirt with some entrancing maiden he may observe upon the street The prettiest of the working girls have been picked out by Miss Hardin to re- cruit the ''antimashers' police. She is working along Parisian methods, and before complaint is filed there will be ample evidence to sustain every charge preferred against the culprit
 ''No one woman will have to con. front her employer in court, to be browbeaten and intimidated by law yers and retire willing under the abuse heaped upon her. says Miss Hardin. "She will have several witnesses of her own sex to substantiate her charges"
 Miss Hardin says she was actuated in starting the new crusade by her ex- perience in seeking work in Denver.
 T know we will succeed" she said. Every day we are getting stronger. Interest has been awakened, and the working girls of this city will have protection. It is surprising when one sums up how many homes are solely dependent on one little woman"
 In elaborating the detective plan Miss Hardin advanced the ideas that certain kinds or grades of work de- manded more protection than others. To strangers coming to Denver, to girls alone in the city, to the ones stranded on account of illness or other trouble, the Business Women's club pledges help, but not in the name of charity. It is the intention of Miss Hardin to ask the 900 members of the Woman's club to fraternize so that an immense army of influential women may lend their aid to the cause

DEATH GERMS IN PULLMANs

Modern Luxury I'm Palace Cars De-
 c1ared a Menace to Public Health.
 'The modern palace car, with it's many decorations and draperies, is a menace to the public hea}th. Railroad coaches should be made as plain as pos sible in order that they may be cleaned thoroughly after each trip" Dr. James A. Elkton made the above statement at the thirteenth annual meeting of the New York State Association of Rail- way Surgeons the other night in New York
 Every medical man." he continued, "knows that the origin of a large pro- portion of communicable diseases is traceable to- the direct or indirect con- tact of the sick with the healthy. The transmission is most likely to occur by protracted contact with the person or surroundings which the infected have contaminated. For many reasons the ordinary railroad coach, because of its varied use and occupancy, might fur nish a fruitful opportunity for the dis semination of disease On account of lAS CdLelcSSuSSS OL L1S puUlIC, us Tall" road companies are to a lamentable de- gree afforded encoura cement for laxity in the matter of hygienic regulations.
 ''Yet railroad companies beautify their vehicles and vie with each other in the matter of design and ornamental ton in utter disregard for the impor- tant matter of hygienic conditions.
 Crowded immigrant ships bring con- tagion to our shores, and the railroads, unless some wise sanitary regulations be made, may become potent vehicle in scattering it broadcast through the land.''
 The doctor also argued for a more healthful distribution of air through railway coaches.
 After the conclusion of pr. Elkton's address paper written by Dr. c. P. Conn of Concord, N. H., dealing with the same subject, was read, and then the meeting discussed the matter and agreed that it was time that something should be done to make the travelling public less liable to infection.

Piening Fails to Throw Monroe Three
 Times.

John Fleming, the Graeco- Roman champion wrestler, met Jack Monroe in Eagles hall, New Haven, last night, and failed to throw him three times in an hoItr or rather forty minutes, as twenty minutes was taken out for rests. The prize offered was $500 and it was agreed that the winner should take 75 per cent of it, the loser getting the other 25 per cent. The first bout was Graeco- Roman and the others were catch the latter con dition being more favorable to Monroe. One Of the features of the event was a crowd of Yale and Princeton stu dents, all from Montana. Fleming got the first fall in 1907 minutes and the second one in 17:43 minutes after wards. In the remaining nine minutes he failed to gain another fall and con- sequently lost the match. Attorney Alcorn of Yale refereed the match and gave general satisfaction. There were about 300 present and a preliminary exhibition was given by O'Connell and Pierce.
