The fact is thoroughly recognized that the republican party, having car ried the country, is entitled to govern dur ing the next four years. MT.

DECLINES OFFER TO HAVE A THANKSGIVING DINNER SENT IN-REcEIvED SEVERAL PRES ENTs FROM FRIENDS.

New York, November 2l-Today's observance of Thanksgiving in the the metropolis was not unlike that which has marked the season in other years. There were special services in nearly all denominations and the unfortunates both within in and out of the charitable sta- tions and prisons were made happy for the time being. Hundreds of baskets of food were distributed among the poorer families In the lower sections of the city and liberal Thanksgiving dinners were served to the needy in many quarters. At the Bowery mission alone plans were made to serve dinner to one thousand homeless men tonight. Scores of similar instances had the city's unfortunate ones for their guests.
 In her cell in the Tombs prison, Nan Patterson. the young woman who for more than a week has been on trial in the supreme court charged with the murder of Caesar Young, the wealthy horseman, ate her dinner alone.

CAROLINA DOWNED BY THE VIRGINIANS
IRONY OF FATE WON THE GAME FOR VIRGINIA AS CLOSE VIC. TORY WAS CLEARLY THE RE- SUIT OF ACCIDENT.

Richmond, Va, November 24.-The Uni- versity of Virginia defeated the Univer- sity of North arplina in their annual game for the southern championship at Broad street park this afternoon by a margin of but one point.
 The score was 12 to Il, the Carolinians failing of a drawn battle by their inabil- ity to land a rather easy goal. It was the irony of fate that the point that won the game for the orange and blue was the result of an accident in which a carolinian player figured. With the score of II to Il, Virginia had a try for goal The ball was booted straight enough, but too low to get over the bar, and a Carolina player standing beneath the posts jumped into the air and struck the ball, de1ecting 1t upward and over the bar
 The two teams were as evenly matched at is was possible for them to be, and the offensive work was superior to its defense. Virginia played Yale football, straight line plunges, and mass plays be- ing used effectively against the Carolina line until the blue and white were ham, mered back over their own line.
 Carolina played Princeton style, de- pending on end runs chiefly for gains. The Carolinians had a star baek-held, and one of the heaviest ever seen in this city.
 Carpenter, an old V. P. l. player, was the star of the game and Carolna's s main dependence as a ground-gainer. It was he who made all of the Carolinians' end runs, and their second touchdown after a 30-yard dash. The first touchdown of the game made by Carolina was due to a Virginia huff of a punt on its own goal line, the ball rolling over and a Carolinian falling on 1t.
 For Virginia Right Tackle Council made the first touchdown after the ball had been rushed almost the length of the field. Hammond Johnson carried the ball over for the second in a brilliant l5- yard dash Into the line. Both yielded goals.

The president is said to be dlspleased over newspaper reports which are being sent out of Washington almost daily many of them going to southern news papers, that he is going to change his policy towards the south. The president believes that he has given the south a square deal, and stands pat on every one of his actions since he became pres ident.
 He does not intend to change in any respect whatever. He does not regret the Booker Washington dinner, under the same circumstan would again abolish the Indianola postoffice, and is going to nominate Crum as soon as the senate goes in session. He is especially gratihed over the manner in which his southern appointees are conducting themselves.

Atlanta, November 24- Cumberland University of Tennessee met defeat at the hands and feet of the men trained by the famous Heisman at the Georgia school of technology at Piedmont park today by score which tells in part a true story of the game-1S to O.
 Billy Wilson of the Techs was star man on the winning team this after noon. Wilson's 35-yard line run without assistance of interference was among the features of the game.
 The defensive work of both teams was about on a par, and was weak. Tech s offensive work was superior to that of the Tennesseeans, and hence the result. Steel and ork for the visitors was bril- Eant.

MIR CHOATE MAKES REPLY
Sir Edward Clarke Thinks the United States Spends Too Much Money In Providing for the Survivors
 of the Civil War.

London. November 24.-The annual Thanksgiving banquet of the American Society at the Hotel Cecil tonight was marked by the presentation to Ambassa- dor Choate of a portrait of himself painted by Hubert Herkimer. and paid for by subscription by members of the society. An unusual note for such a gathering was introduced by Sir Edward Clarke, who proposing MT. Choate's health. sarcastieally derided the title American ambassador declaring that the word American implied domination over the whole of the western hemis- phere. which the United States does not possess, and Is not entitled to, as Great Britain is territorially a larger power on the American continent than the United States. Sir Edward suggested that a more suitable title would be Usona, signi- flying United States of North America.
 During the first public criticism here of the state departments order that em- bassies hereafter shall be called Amer ican' thus uttered as "a respectful pro- test" against the assumption of the larg- CT name, Sir Edward Clarke proceeded to refer to the miserable underpayment of American judges and America's waste of energies in providing for survivors of the civil war and in building iron-clads which she could never use.
 Mir. Choate Replies.
 Ambassador Choate replying, said that Americans were quite satisfied with their governments and then referred to the re- cent election in the United States as a splendid tribute of devotion ana affection to a great man. Having remarked upon the regeneration of public life in Amer ica, regardless of party, now in progress, Mir Choate alluded to the ever-growing friendship between Great Britain and America as reason for thanksgiving and added;
 Ii asked Lord Lansdowne if he was ready to negotiate a treaty of arbitra- ton. Why said Lord Lansdowne, It goes without saying
 Continuing, Mir. Choate maintained that many things go without saying between Great Britain and America, above all that they should avoid all possible causes of offense and settle all differences by teaceful means

The victory was won on merit and was the most decisive since the contests between the institutions were inaugurated.

 Scarborough had to punt repeatedly, as only once during the game did Sewanee by massing her back field make the least headway. The little quarterback was the feature Sewanee's, game, his tackles and his quarterback runs being equal to his booting. VanderDllts back field was of ell-star variety, though Craig was the pick.
