ThanksoivInq Football Games.

Denver, Nov. z5.-Two football
games were played in Denver yester-
day In the presence of enormous
crowds. The State University played
against the Leland Stanford University
OF California and was defeated by
score OF SO to 0. The University Of Dem
yer played against the State School Of
Mines and lost the game by score Of
IL to 6. OF the latter game the Repub-
lican says "The score tells the result,
but does not show anything about the
game. 1t was one Of the most interest
ing games Denver has seen for long
time, the result being in doubt until
the final whistle blew. Both teams
played fast, snappy game, at tmea
the play being SO fast that 1t was DIFF
flcult to follow it. The game was full
of spectacular plays, A. Pate getting
away twice, once for a sixty-yard run
to a touchdown and again for q fifty
yard run down the field; Hughes ran
eighty-five yards to the goal posts and
thought he had touchdown, but 1t was
not allowed, as the referee had blown
his whistle and the ball was dead be-
fore Hughes took it.
Both schools were supported by

long and loud and all the time. The
Miners were helped with their songs
by the Fort Logan band, which had
been engaged especially for the occa-
sion. During the intermission, the boys
from both schools formed long lines
and marched around the field shouting
and singing"
OF the Colorado-Stanford game the
News says:
"A throng of over 10000 enthusiastic
and football-mad people saw Leland
Stanford defeat the University of Colo
RADIO in a splendidly clsan and sports
manlike game Of football at Broadway
park yesterday afternoon. The Califor-
mia eleven won speedy and spectacle
lar game on its merits. Colorado put
up a heroic and determined defense.
which wrung cheers Of appreciation and
encouragement from the thousands Of
loyal supporters present"
An immense crowd came from BouI-
der to witness the game. Those who
saw the arrival of the Boulder trains
declared that the whole town must be
depopulated.

THE LOVE OF NJ
As Much of a Mystery as the Stars
That Shine.

Who shall fathom Il woman'S
heart or measure the depths of her
love? She is angelic in her charity
and divine in her forgiveness
where man is concerned. Recent
ly, says the Nashville American,
in Chicago a woman appeared at
the city Jail with a basket of del
icacies, which she requested
should be sent to one of the pris-
oncrS. One of her arms was III Il
sling, for it had been broken bya
blow from Il club. Her head was
pncircled by Il bandage which COW
cred one eve which had been
bruised by Il fist. There were
many cOntusions on her body, she
was suffering great pain and was
hardly able to walk by reason OF
the cruel beating she had received.
But in spite of all this she had pre-
pared the basket of dainty edibles
ard brought it from her home in
the suburbs to the Jail for her hus-
band-the brute who had beaten
her so cruelty. She was distressed
ut the thought that he had moth
inc TO eat but the coarse prison
fare, therefore she prepared for
him those things she knew he
would like.
He was her husbapd end all the
cruel and brutal treatrnent she
had received from him had not
slain in her heart the love he had
awakened there i'll The happy,
hopeful days that Il woman never
forcetS. lie was a brute, or
curse. and she-well, many would
say she was very foolish. Perhaps
so; who shall say? Being some
thing OF Il man and therefore some.
thing of Il brute, we do not feel
competent to act as q juror in such
a case as this. The merits and re-
fnements of it are beyond us--as
much of Il mystery as that of the
stars which illumine the night.

We. Lige Rogers and the undersigned
citizens OF the community in which he
leved before being sent to the Peni tent.
airy, and officials, respectfully represent
unto your Excellency as follhws:
That at the August term 1902 OF the
circuit bort OF Lee county the said Lige
Rogers was convicted Of shooting at,
with intent to kill, one Eubanks, and by
the court sentenced to the Penitentiary
for 10 years. since which time he has
been serving out such s~entance. That
he was indicated and tried jointly with
several other neg. oes for the offense OF
which Ike he was conviced; two OF his
co defendants being CONVICTED with him,
and the balance acquitted. the testimony
as to all Of them becng entirly circum-
stantial and being weaker as to the
guilt OF said Lige Rogers than either OF
the others convicted with him.
That since the trial and the excitement
growing out OF the shooting, it appears
to be doubtful whether said Lige Rogers
was present and took part in it, and in
view Of this doubt and the time he has
served in the penitentiary we think he
has beeu. sufficiently punishetland respect
fully ask your Excellency to pardon him.

Obituary of Mr.. Z. BaiIy,

Mr.. Il. Baily, Of Lee county,
miss, was born in Marion county,
Ala. Jan 80, 1889, and departed this
life Novembe r the 15,-1904, about
3 P. M. Bro, Baily was a truly
noble spirit Of g%uileless character
and during the sixtv five years
spanning the above dates gathered
abont him many warm personal
friends. He was faithful in the dis
charge Of the duties of life as he saw
and understood them When quite a
young man he answered to the call
of bis country making a brave and
faithful soldier in the volunteer
army of the great Jnrist and Gen.
eral S. J. Gholson. When that
woeful struggle was over, like most
of his comrades. he settled down TO
make a good faithful citizen and by
honst toll and frugality managed to
leave his companion a comfortable
home. In 1882, rather late in life,
in Guntown Miss, he was born
again, from above. of the Spirit;
and making a profession OF faith
in Christ united with the Nj. e.
Church, South. From that glad
hour to his dying day he made a
true aud faithful Soldier of the
Cross. In his last days the Bible
was his constant companion. The
18th chapter of the Gospel of John
was his favorite. The evening of
November The 18th (Sunday) this
writer spent several hours with
him, and when about to leave was
requested to read his favorlt chap
ter and pray with him. He listened
attentively and praised God, saying
he wanted to hear his Sayior talk
abont that blessed home prepared
for him. Just before the end came,
his last request was for his pastor
TO read this same chapter at his
grave. At his request he was
borne TO his last resting place and
buried with Masonic honors, ard
here by the side of his sainted moth
er, who died in his home, and
preceded him four years, to that
home of the Soul, his body will
rest in peace till the resurrection
morn, when with the blood washed

Lamb forever. He was the father
Of seven children. Two of them

Rests on His Laurels.

Herr Won M0ser, the celebrated
German poet, whose body has just
been cremated at GOtha, had in his
possession some years before his
death a miniature coffin made OF
crystal destined to receive his
ashes. In this coffin were con
tanned a number of withered
leaves of laurel, each of which had
been plucked from one or other of
the wreaths offered him by admir-
ers. The explanation of this was
to be found in the often-repeated
Jest of the poet: 81 shall repose
upon my l%aurels." This prophecy
has now been actually realized.

CHASED BY JAP SHIP
RUSSIAN DESTROYER ARRIVES
SAFELY IN THE HARBoR
At cHEFoo.

Chefoo, Nov. 16-The Russian tor.
pedo boat destroyer Ratstoropny- put
into this harbor during the morning.
Firing was heard half an hour before
she entered the harbor. A snow storm
and high wind were prevailing at the
time and it is believed that the Rus
sian vessel, under cover of the storm,
attempted to escape from Port Arthur.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press succeeded in reaching the de-
stroyer after her arrival here but he
was not allowed to board her. The
captain Of the Chinese cruiser Haiyung
was the first person to go on board
the Ratstoropny. He held brief
conference with her commander, after
which the Ratstoropny came further
into the stream and anchored in the
same spot that the destroyer Ryeshi-
telni did last August before she was
cut out by the japanese.
There is every evidence that the
Ratstoropny will disarm here only as
last resort. 1t is thought that she
hopes to elude the Japanese destroyer
reported outside the harbor at night.
The Ratstoropny brought number
of copies of the Novakral. a Port Ar
thur newspaper. In one of the issues
1t is stated that while a Japanese de-
stroyer was laying mines Nov. II she
was surprised by the battleship Ret
viZan and sunk
