BROWN BEATEN BY Tech.

Last evening In one OF the most rugged
games that has been played by Brown
since the opening OF the season she met
defeat at the hands OF the team from
the Massachusetts, Institute of Tech
nology, the score being "a TO % against
them.
From the score IL may be seen that the
contest was OF the btterest sort, and
the final result in doubt until the last
minute OF the time was played. The
crowd in attendance was not so large
but 1t made up for the lack OF numbers
by the enthusiasm displayed.
At the very start II was apparent that
the Brown men were up against a stinr
proposition for the Technology five scored
six points before the Brown men had
been able 10 tally. Dewolf then made
a clean goal and after throw from a
foul by ingalls, he scored again At
this point Rackle played phenomenally
and sent the ball through the cage three
times I'm quick succession. Browns lead
was Immediately taken away by Alger
and Blake. however and Tech was again
ahead at 10 to .. Dewolf and Rackle again
got into things and two scores by De-
wolf. one by Rackle, together with a.
point secured through n foul. gave
Brown first place at the end OF the half
at is to 10.
In the second half Mathieson dis
tinguished himself by his remarkable
goal throwing. and II was with the great
est difficulty that Brown maintained her
lead With the score 10 to Is I'm Brown
favor, Ahrons received n bad cut over
the eye and had TO retire I'm favor Of
Schwartz. TSS visitors Immediately
took advantage OF the absence of the
Brown captain and they rapidly turned
the scales In their favor. Schwartz played
"A pluclSy game and covered his man ef-
fectively. but Hanks" long throws and
great defence work were greatly missed
and although the Brown men exerted
themselves to the utmost they found IL

Three Articles That WIN subdue the

There were trouble and excitement

high spirited. half broken stallion was

the ranchers house He had just
thrown cowboy who boosted there
was nothing on four legs he could not
ride, and he was rearing and bucking
SO that not even the plueklest man on
the ranch dared TO approach.
While the men were standing around
wondering what TO do the ranchers
sixteen-year-old daughter came out of
the house and calmly walked up to the
excited animal.
When he saw her he ceased rearing,
whinnied and stood still. She just put
her hand ON his name, stroked his nose
and then yaulted lightly on his back
and rode around the yard, to the
amazement of the men.
How do you manage it?' one Of
them asked her. Before you tackled
him he was as savage us a tiger

Of his fathers character.
He was with his father In his cabi

Mr. Stanton walked directly up TO the
desk where Mr.. Lincoln was sitting
and said. Mr.. President. have com,

expression In his face something like
that of convicted schoolboy. .'the
truth is. Stanton, they are not ready"
