THRAsHED THE FIGHTERS
"Rube" waddell Has Such 4 Way
 With Him.

s sharon, Pa, Nov 3.--Rube Waddell, the eccentric slab artist of the Phila- delphia Athletic baseball team, was in in new role at Slippery Rock yester- day, and proved that he is not slow at handling his fists.
 The Normal school and Prospect High school teams were playing foot ball. Rube was coach for the latter, acted as referee, and later proved him. self peacemaker.
 Two of the players got into a fight and Rube, dashing through the line, grabbed Joe Weigel, the big center ! lifted him and dashed him to the ground. He landed solid jolt on the other players jaw, and then scattered the rest of the players with right and left swings, knocking three men down
 Rube was master of the situation and after severely reprimanding the offending players, made them shake hands and resume the game. No fur. Eher trouble occurred.

THE POWER OF PUNT.
 INC.-IN FOOTBALL

This season promises to see con- tinuance of the tendency toward the open game. It could be looked for ward to as certainty If we were sure of such powerful and as good kickers as were pro duced last year. It is frequently the existence of q single factor, such as q good punter, that makes an open game the choice. Both De Witt of Princeton and Mitchell of Yale have played their last game for their respective univer- sities, unless indeed the latter should return to Yale, which at this writing is not expected. The kicking of these men was an important element in eacn of the games in which they took part and if men of equal ability can be de veloped at Harvard, Yale and Prince ton we will be sure of kicking and an open game. Punting introduces the greatest chance and uncertainty and changes the aspect of affairs so quickly that frequent resort to it keeps both players and spectators on tiptoes.
 A picture of the future which haunrs the football mind is that of two teams playing kicking game on the field i'll the Harvard stadium. In that great amphitheater, which it is hoped Yale and Princeton will duplicate, from every one of whose 35,00O or 10000 seats it is possible to see the individual plays, it would be about perfect to see famous guards, famous ends and great backs struggling for supremancy, with every rush through the center and dash through tackle. and each end run and clean tackle yisible.-Outing.

 CONTEST AT BALK LINE

New York. Nov 3.-Making 400 points fo A. G. Cutters 356 last night, Willie Hoppe still has a comfortable lead in the S.2 balk line contest of 2,4O0 points at the Broadway billiard academy. Last nights block of points was very close, but Cutler lost more ground. Both professionals played well, CutleA making the spectators sit up with n Gne run of 94 in his fifth, inning
 This came just after cluster of I5 by his youthful adversary, and the two healthy sessions were exceedingly en- tertaining. Cutler played the strongest kind of billiards in the first half of the nights contest. but did not keep up the pace, the boy being better toward the close. Hoppe got the balls togeth- CT and caressed them gently for 6A near the finish, and the run enabled him to make the needed 400 with A points to spare. The score:
 Hoppe-21, 6, 30, 75, 0, 5, 6, 6, O. o, 8. i, l3, 0 5, 2S, 2S. 24, 6, 3, 24, 15, 62, o, 12, 0. 0. 24, l. Total. 400. Average, 1S. 25-20. High runs, 75, O., 30. Total for three nights, 1,2OO.

RRowN RRAT TuFTs.

Providence, Nov 3.-Brown defeated Tufts yesterday by score of fl to O. Brown had things her own way from the start. Her playing was ragged at times, and had 1t not been for fum- bling and poor plays the score would have been made larger. The Tufts team was out of it's class and could make but a few yards before having to punt Brown held Tufts for downs time and time again and broke through the line, blocking many punts. Browns line was strong and was held {out strongly against Tufts attack. l, The interference on end runs was poor |and gave Tufts opportunity to get at fhe man with the ball. In the latter half Brown played almost an entire Second team. which put up good of fensive game. Chase, Pryor and Wel. kert made runs of twenty-five and thirty yards. c. H. Jones, left halt, Jack, did good work for Tufts. and Cobb, We,kert and Chase played well for Brown. s5.

A PERSONAL FAVOR.

One of the most picturesque figures of the New York bar was. the late Thomas Nolan, a lawyer whose witty retorts furnished subjects for merri, ment at many lawyers gathering. Now, Nolan was at one time counsei for poor widow who was suing a construction company for the death of her husband. The case had been plac. ed upon the "day calendar" but had been frequently postponed, and Mrs Moriarty, by the time she had made her fifth call, was in an exceedingly disturbed frame of mind, consequently the tones of Nolan's rich brogue were more than usually fervid as he fought against the sixth adjournment.
 T am sorry" said Justice Dugro, 'sbut your opponent has shown mc good cause for the adjournment, MT Nolan, and the case will therefore go over until to-morrow.''
 '.very well, sor,'' said the witty barrister, sweetly, ''but might ask wan personal favor of this coort?'
 "Certainly, sir, with pleasure.
 "Will your honor kindly sthep down to my office and tell Mrs Moriarty that you have adjourned the caseT' Success.

Bnldwin's Asrship Escaped Attend
 ants and Was soon Out of Sight.
 ST. LOUIS, Nov. While Captain Baldwin of San Francisco, inventor of the California Arrow, and several as, sistants were returning the airship from the place N landed in St. Louis county cornield after it's unsuccessful flight to the worlds fair aeronaut ic concourse the lead rope was drag ged from the hands of Baldwin's as. sistants, and the airship broke loose hnd scared into the air. When last seen the airship was drifting rapidly in northwesteriy direction.
 There was absolutely nothing for Baldwin, Knabenshue and the other members of the party to do but accept the situation and make the best of it. After some little discussion as to the probable direction, Baldwin said he believed the Arrow would descend to the ground within an hour. The party then proceeded on to the con- course, where the announcement that the airship had escaped caused general consternation among the crowd that had remained expecting to see the Ar row brought back
 The Arrow should land easily and unless a high wind rises should be none the worse for it's unauthorized ascension.

THE SPORTING NEWS.
BICYCLING.
FRANK WALLER RETURNS
 AFTER SEVERAL YEARS

Frank Waller, the veteran cyclist, after having been reported dead for some time, without contradiction on his part, yesterday reached New York from London. The record holder with Charles w. Miller in the six-day race is now man of A years. He went through the old cycle district. finding automobiles on every hand, but the same crowd of friends employed in the new field.
 Waller comes to America to ride in the six-day race in December, and wants to team with Otto Maya, if possible He will see Maya at Vails- burg to-day.
 II am getting old" said Waller to a reporter for the World, s'but I have a a race in me yet, and guess they need me to pull the record down, for they are coming 300 miles short of the fig ures put up by me and Charlie Miller. can set the pace all right and guess I will make them climb all the way from the start"
 Waller said that he did not know how the report spread that he had killed himself. He has been working for years in the automobile motor business for A. A. Chase, the English pace follower, who was seen in this country years ago. After the six-day bicycle race Waller will enter the au- tomobile field in this country.
 Waller brought with him his oldest son and has one left i'll London, two of his children having died since he started on his "trip around the world On that trip Waller became "broke" in California. but finally worked his way to Australia, where he was again fl nancially stranded. He worked his way to London to meet his wife and family, and has been doing well there,

THE GRIDIRON.
BIG ATTENDANCE AT
 ALL GAMES EXPECTED

Two thousand more applications have been received for the Harvard Yale football game than there are seats. If these two teams lost every game they played, they would stili play to capacity" and the same is true of Yale and Princeton. The rival Try and fame of the institutions give their games vogue which is peculiar to itself. Only the West Point-Annapo- lis game attains quite the same distinc- tive features of patronage and hurrah. The seating capacity at Yale field IS about 32,O0O. With the attendance at the Harvard-Yale game there as the biggest drawing card, Harvard win this year play to an attendance of 75.- 900 in four games, the three other games being those with Pennsylvania, the Indians and Dartmouth. 1t is safe to add 10000 for the other games or the Harvard schedule. There are three games on the Yale schedule that mean q combined attendance Of about 65.OOO, the Harvard game with 32,00O, the Princeton game with 22,000 and the Columbia game with 12,O00. The West Point game drew about 5000, so that the Blues will have played to about 75, 1000 for the whole season.
 The season should also be prosper ous one for Pennsylvania, additionally so since the victory at Cambridge with the Indians, Lafayette and Cornell, all attractive games, still to come. The Quakers always have been liberal in the matter of opponents on the sched> Is11le and a hard schedule has no terrors for them. They are the only big uni versity team that journeyed as fan west as Chicago to play, and perhaps their broad sportsmansnip might in. duce them to do next year what con- temporaries in the east have foughs shy of-arrange game with the Uni versity of Michigan. Their showing this year lets them in as regards class. It has been no fault of the Wolverines that they have not been seen in the east. and if they are seen in New York | this year, as they may be, 1t is proba- ble that credit therefor will be due to the enterprise of Amherst.

ao,ooo DRY GOODS STORES.

Tn the United States there are about 3O,OOO shops that sell dry goods. Twelve thousand of these may be ranked as good stores. and about 5000 are establishments of size which makes them important factors in the commercial and domestic life of their communities. The owners of almost all of these shops, the largest as well as the smallest, began obscurely. The majority of the most prosperous have attained their present success and magnitude during recent years, in which unsuccessful merchants have been wont to complain that the com petition has been ruinous.-Success.
