THE GRlDIRON.
THE RESULTS
 ON SATURDAY
Yale's Defeat of Princeton Booms Her Stock With Harvard-The Latter is Playing a Foxy Game.

Yale's exhibition Saturday against Princeton shows that she can put up a quality of football that is hard to beat. She cannot put up anything brilliant or beyond the ordinary such as the Yale team of two and four years ago or the Harvard team of three years ago could. This team hasn't enough Gordon Browns, Chadwicks, Stillmans, Hales, Finckes, the Cutts. Campbells, Bowditches and Reids to do 1t. But this years team has eleven steady going men with no weak spots and few brilliants.
 Early in the season Harvard seemed to be heading toward a victory over Yale. She had a wealth of material with plenty of experience in 1t. The season progressed we'll until the Penn sylvania game and then came disaster. The crimson defense was weak and her offensive uniearned. The ends were unfit for high school teams. So some expect to see Yale easily victorious next Saturday.
 Others, however, notice that changes have been made in the last three weeks in the crimson lineup and all for the better. The Pennsylvania game itself made several. It brought about the substitution of Starr for Ker- nan at quarter and of Pruyn and Ran- -dall or Mathews in place of the end failures Since then Oveson has taken Squires's place at tackle. the latter going to guard: Cunniff has displaced Parkinson at center and Schoenfuss has won place guard. Brill, one of the best tackles in the country. has been. the only one to keep his place. Behind the line Sperry has taken Nich- ols's place, while Hanley is pushing Mills hard for fullback. Brill Hurley and Mills are the only men to keep their places.
 By their records for several seasons West Point. Amherst. Dartmouth and Annapolis have won the right to some such title as the Little Big Four" Dartmouth and West Point would make fine game. The scores of Sat urday's games are as follows:

OLDER THAN THE CHINESE
Cliff Dwellers Race That May Even Antedate the Beginning of
 Far Cathay.

Odler even than China, the oldest existing nation, are the cliff dwellings of southwestern United States, homes of a race whose very name has per ished from the earth. Explorers, puz- zling through the Mancos and Casa Verde canyons of Arizona and New Mexico. have found the houses of this strange people in. the widest and most inaccessible of the mountain sides. Did the cliff dwellers antedate the pyramids of Egypt? Were they of blood relation to the early inhabitants of the land where the Nile is god? Some students are prepared to answer both questions affirmatively and to give what is to them abundant proof. The pottery from their long wrecked homes suggests Egypt, and the few in- scriptions found have similar sugges. tions. Mummies, bodies wrapped in cloth, feathers from the breast of the turkey have been dug from burial places among the cliffs, and. in bone and hair much unlike the Indian of to-day, there is hint of resemblance to more oriental type. If the cliff dwellers left any descendants, how ever remote; they are doubtless the Moki and zuni Indians, who, resem- bling them in habits and appearance, are their closest kins-ren.

COLUMBIA BEAT CORNELL.

The game of the day second in i'm portance was that between Cornell and Columbia at New York. The blue and white has for several years sue ceeded in beating at least one of the big colleges. They had not hoped, however, to make the 12 points to Cornell's 6 Saturday. All the scoring was done in the second half Thorpe kicked the ball as 1t lay on the ground after tumble. It rolled thirty yards over Cornell's goal and Thorpe fell on it. Cornell then by straight football scored a touchdown and kicked a goal which Columbia had failed to do. On the next kick off the Cornell runner was thrown behind his line for a safe ty. This invigorated the Columbia men and before the half was over they had scored another touchdown.

THE PUGILISTS.
TOM SHARkEY
 A PROFESSOR
Now Instructor of a School of Boys-.Some Good Bouts Friday Night..Other Fight News.

Tom Sharkey's business cards in the future will have professor annexed to his name. The famous ex-sailor pugilist has taken charge o@ the physi- cal culture class of St Ann's church, Twelfth street and Fourth avenue, New York. He assumed his new posi- ton last week. Since Sharkey took charge of the boxing end of the class 1t has grown to such proportions that the retired pugillst has been forced to have an assistant. Prior to /Sharkey's advent boxing was not a part of the curriculum. 1t was at his suggestion that the art was taken up, and the Rev Fathers Riley and Sullivan ot the church agreed with him. Sharkey has been a member of the church for some time, as also has been his wife. St Ann's has fine gymnasium. ana the boys are delighted at the idea ot learning how to box They practice all the blows known to the art, and some of them have already become very clever. Sharkey says he has some excellent material in his class, and expects to develop champion some day. "The church and the ring ars being drawn closer together each day." said Sharkey yesterday. Tt is capi- tal idea, and boxing should be encour> aged in every church in the country. Besides making boy manly, it also makes him strong.' Fathers Sullivan and Riley are enthusiastic over the new class, and can see no harm in the innovation The class is one of the most popular in the city, apparently.

AMHERST BEATEN AT LAST.

After going the whole season with but one solitary touchdown against her, Amherst was finally beaten by Dartmouth Saturday 15 to 4. The Hanoverians were considerably heav- fer than the Amherst players and the weight was used to good advantage in line plays which Amherst could not stop. Amherst scored on a field goal from the thirty-yard line.

Blue mountain forests for forty
years, or since sheep began sum-
mering in them. The eastern
slope of the Cascades where sheep
pasture regularly have also been
singularly free from fires, while the
forests of Western Oregon and
Washington blaze regularly every
summer, causing the atmosphere
of the entire Northwest as far as
Montana to be filled with smoke
until the fall rains appear.
Sheep eat off the grass and keep
the underbrush trimmed so that
tire cannot spread. Dry grass is
what carries fire in the mountains
and where sheep range the grass
plots are strewn with trails and
thus every fire that gets out is
stopped before going any distance.
"The government has already
found out that sheep keep fires
down in the mountains of Oregon
and so the forest rangers are
friendly toward the pasturing of
sheep on the reserves. Sheep also
keep the soil enriched and grass
grows all the more abundantly in
those portions of the mountains
where they are permitted to run.
The prejudice against sheep on the
part Of government so-called 'ex-
perts' is rapidly giving way to a
more rational sentiment on the
subject of sheep pasture.

Flour Gold PrOblem.

On the Snake river, which d.
vldes Oregon from Idaho. dozen
or more dredgers have been erect
ed at various times to save the
fine flour gold from the bars of
that turbulent stream. These
plants were at first Of the suction
pattern, but of late have been of
the ladder and bucket chain type,
and except in the matter of saving
appliances are largely like the
New Zealand dredger. Sluices
were originally fitted with Cariboo
and Hungarian rifles, which were
later supplemented by a burlap
system of sluices for the finer
gold. Values in the gravel of the
Snake are exceedingly fine, the
average running about 1000 colors
to the inch, and the gold grain is
haky with ragged edges. Associ-
ated with this gold is cubical
grained black sand, which has as
great or greater specific gravity
for the surface area, and separa-
ton is very difficult. Sluicing on
the principle Of concentrating ta-
bles, saving the gold and black
sand together, with the purpose of
shipping both to the smelter, was
a late experiment which promised
success, as the smelters were
ready to purchase this product at
its assay content of gold t. o. b.
the cars nearest the dredgar. All
work seems to have been unavail-
ing up to the present, as there is
not a dredger on this part of the
Snake river operating continuous
ly. Despite temporary defeats,
