Bonesetter Curing Mrs. Paget.

cablegram from London last night
saws: Mrs Arthur Paget has thrown over
her London surgeons. and on Monday had
Prof. Hoffa, a bone specialist on the Lor-
enz lines, come from Berlin to reduce her
dislocated hip joint which London sur
geons had said could only be done by an
operation which she was not yet strong
enough to endure. DR.. Hoffa had his pa
tient under chloroform for two hours while
he broke the adhesions and forced the bone
into its socket DIR. Hoffa insisted on the
patient being taken out of bed. She stood
on the floor for few minutes a proceed
ing which has since been repeated twice
daily Mrs. Paget Is incased In plaster of
Paris from waist to feet DIR. Hoffa says
the treatment Is progressing quite salts
factorily, and promises that Mrs. Paget
will escape the stiff limb predicted for her.
The surgeons here who refused to rec
ognize Dr. Lorenz are indignant at Mrs.
Paget's action in summoning this Berlin
empiric," as they call him. Their indigna-
tion is intensifying. as the patient is show
ing decided signs OF improvement. This,
they aver. will not last.

SAYS HE WILL NOT HANG.
McCue Shows Little Anxiety Over Con-
viction of Murder.

Former Mayor J. Samuel McCue, who was
convicted of wife murder last Saturday at
Charlottesville. Va, has shown no signs OF
weakness since his return to jail short
time after the verdict Of the jury was an
nounced. He went whistling into his cell,
took his usual bath and. except for retiring
a little later and arising little earlier, his
conduct Isl wholly unchanged. When the
taller, after his return to the cell. examined
the convicted man and searched the cell
McCue OWNED his purpose and said:
There is no need to search me. l am
not going to commit suicide and am not
going to hang.
The only visitor admitted to his cell since
the conviction is the prisoners eldest son,
William who figured so dramatically in the
trial. Others were refused admission,
among them DR.. Frank McCue and Mar
shall Dinwiddie.
There are two opinions as to whether
Judge Morris will grant new trial, In
view of the fact that some of the jurors
had access to newspapers. If new trial
is granted it will probably be for this rea-
SON and not for any of the other grounds
which the defense will urge as justifying
a new trial.
One of the Jurors says that one of the
most convincing things connected with the
story of the crime was the absurdity of the
burglar theory and the assault on McCue.
But one vote was taken, and that one nxed
the doom of the prisoner.
At the request of the counsel for the de-
Tense Judge Morris set next wednesday as
the day on which the motion for new
trial will be argued before him.

Y. M. C. A. more than Offset this. how

the base running of the association team
showed improvement over their previous
contests 1t was responsible for several
of the runs.
Crogan of the Carols made a double
play, unassisted. on hard chance, retfr-

DARTMOUTH TIED HARVARD.
New Hampshire Team Just Missed
Field Goal

Harvard and Dartmouth fought it out
Saturday at Cambridge for fifty minutes on
Soldiers Field, with neither side able to
score single point. Once in the first half
Harvard had the ball on Dartmouth's thir-
teen-yard line. but missed by few inches
making the necessary five yards. Dart
mouth came near scoring just at the end of
the first half With thirteen yards to gain
on the third down, Glaze, the Dartmouth
right end, tried for goal from the field
from Harvard's forty-seven-yard line. The
ball was passed true to the quarter, who
held 1t for the kick which went sailing ap-
parently straight for the goal The Dart
mouth partisans, who We're present by the
thousands, rose, and shrieked with delight
but the ball went few feet wide. In the
second half Dartmouth rushed the ball
down the field forty-five yards to Harvard s
twenty three-yard line, but here the Har-
ward defense grew so fierce that Dartmouth
fumbled and Harvard got the ball.
Except for GlaZe's kick and magnificent
tackle by Starr, the little freshman Har-
ward quarter, after Main had broken
through the Harvard line, and with two
Dartmouth men interference was run
ming with an open field before him for
touchdown, the game was not a spectacu-

YALE DoWNED BROWN.
Scored Three Touchdowns and Goal
From Placement.

In game that tested Yale as no game
except West Point has done this year, the
Blue won from the fast and aggressive
Brown eleven at New Haven Saturday, %

game, replacing Rockwell with Hutchinson
at quart.r and played all but three men
who will be in the final games-Kineon.
Flynn and Leavenworth. Browns defense
was very strong all through the game
though Yale gained 140 yards. Browns at
tack, though tricky and fast, resulted in
only one first down in the two halves. Yale's
formation for running back punts Melted
eleven by Shevlin, one for forty and one for
eighty-f1ve yards. Shevlin's end play was
spectacular. as was Kineon's at tackle and
Kinney's at guard

Trip and Kinney breaking through, tack
ling. spelling plays and hauling their own
runners. Kinney played, individually, the
best game he has put up at Yale Field in
the three years he has played with Yale.
His work was a brilliant feature of the
game. Rockwell handled Yale well, as usu-
al, and was in every play. Hoyt was the
particular star of the back field punting up
ward of sixty yards when necessary, rum
ming back the ball cleverly and playing his
best defensive game this year. Leavenworth
was partly on trial at right half back, and
acquitted himself well, as did Flynn at
full back.

PENNsY's EASY VICTORY
Lafayette Started Well, but Was
Beaten 20 to O.

Pennsylvania defeated her old rival La
fayette Saturday afternoon on Franklin
Field. % to 0. More than eighteen thousand
persons went to the field to cheer the Quak-
ers on their first public appearance since
their victory over Harvard. Saturdays
game was feared by Pennsylvania. as the
boys from Easton have always put up
hard fight. and they were looked upon as
strong enough to score and spoil Pennsyl-
vania's good record.
The supporters of Pennsylvania had a
scare at the start, when Lafayette after
getting the kickoff, ran the ball back by
straight line plunging for forty-two yards,
when Pennsylvania braced and held for
downs on her own twenty-two-yard line
After that Lafayette was never dangerous,
and Pennsylvania ripped big holes In the
line and skirted the ends for gains of from
ten to twenty-five yards. All the scoring
was done in the first half. In the second
Lafayette braced and resorted to a punting
game, and as Pennsylvania put in almost
an entirely new team the former could not
tally.

BLUE AND GRAY ON TOP.
Defeated North Carolina University by
Score of 10 to O,

The annual gridiron contest at Norfolk
Saturday between the universities of North
Carolina and Georgetown proved exception
ally interesting as the southern boys put
up the best battle on record and the blue
and gray won out by the small score of 10
to o. Georgetowns showing against Prince
ton and its decided advancement ever since
indicated a victory by big majority. but
the North Carolina lads worked energeti-
cally and with such vim that the local ag-
gregation was glad to off with a
clean score. The most noticeable handi-
cap to the blue and gray was the muddy
field, which prevented anything like speed
being developed and long runs were out OF
the question. AS a result Georgetown play
ed the good straight game, without any
frills OF furbelows. and the centers APP
peared to be able to make gains whenever
called upon. Neither side scored In the
first half, but it was then that Carolina
played its best game. getting the ball down
to Georgetown's three-yard line when held
and forced back. Capt. Mahoney decided
in the second half that Drawn was neces-
sary to win the game, trick and running
plays having failed on account OF the slip
perry field, and the blue and gray lined up
for rushes at the center. For a time the
North Carolina boys held on well. but
Georgetown would not be denied and, when
the final whistle blew three touchdowns
had been made and one goal kicked
Second Half Was Busy.
Capt Mahoney started the second half
with a splendid kick which Baer caught
and only returned five yards when downed.
Carolina gained three first downs but on
fake kick Carpenter was thrown for
boss of 10 yards. Jacocks punted outside
on Georgetown's 35-yard line. Once in pos
session of the ball Georgetown made her
attack felt. Down the field the blue and
gray swept fer gains of less than . yards
at a down, but finally the ball landed on
the 5-yard line. Mahoney carried it through
left tackle the first score of the game, and
then clicked goal.
Carpenter ran the kickoff back 10 yards,
and on the second play got outside of
right. Following the pretty interference of
Jacocks and Baer. he covered 40 yards be-
fore he was finally brought to earth by

Lineup and Summary.
AGGIES DEFEATED.
University of Maryland Shut Out the
Farmers.

The game between the University OF
MARYLAND eleven and the Maryland Agri-
cultural College at Walibrook oval Satur-
day afternoon was called on account of
darkness shortly after the whistle blew for
the second half, with the University or
Maryland in the lead by to 0. The delay
In starting the second half was caused by
q wrangle between the two teams at the
close Of the first. The Aggies demanded
new referee and umpire, and after fully
20 minutes argument the Hunter brothers
were substituted for Mitchell, referee. and
Garner, umpire.
From the beginning the playing was
snappy and the L. of M. gained ground
steadily. The Aggies kicked off, Carnal.
of L. of M, catching the ball and advanc-
ing five yards before he was tackled by
Wharton. The University then kept NOV
ing down the field with from three to five
yards gained on each lineup. The Aggies
braced up finally and MessemoOre punted,
but before Stoll. who caught the punt,
gained much he was brought to the ground.
During the mixup the university team got
the ball and Stone carried 1t eight yards
nearer to goal. He succeeded in getting
through. but he fumbled the ball, counting
