University Hospital Lawn Fete
Last evening afforded the last chance to
attend the lawn fete which has been held
upon the campus of the Georgetown Uni
versity during this week for the benefit of
the Georgetown University Hospital. and
the proceeds indicate that the affair was
most successful. Miss Rosalie Forrest had
charge of the fancy table, and Miss Rose
Stahlman the Ice cream tables At the
country store there was an auction to get
rid of all the articles which were left over
from the fete.
Those who took supper upon the grounds
were treated to a repetition of the bountiful
spreads Of the evenings preceding. Many
Of the clergy were present, following the
example OF those who were present on
other nights.
Louis Sacks. who resides near the corner
of 32d and M street northwest, reported to
the seventh precinct station yesterday that
his bicycle. valued at $40. had been stolen
from where 1t had been deposited in front
Of his residence. Children in the neighbor-
hood told Mr.. Sacks that Immediately after
he went into his residence three colored
boys came along and after one of the num-
Der had mounted the machine and ridden
away the others followed. The police are
on the trail of the juveniles.
Blue and Gray on Gridiron.
In few days the "preps'' of Georgetown
University will be seen upon the campus,
and then a week or 80 after the seniors
and sophs will arrive and the collegiate
year will be on. The athletes who are to
make up the foot ball team will probably
be on hand somewhat sooner than those
who will not compete for foot ball honors.
The Georgetown management has provided
a schedule that will prove the metal of
every one of the pigskin warriors of the
blue and gray. Hardly will the boys be
rounding into form when they tackle the
team representing Gallaudet College, Sep
TENDER 30. This game will be played upon
Georgetown University Field, and the only
thing that seems left to doubt, according to
the rooters, is how large score George
town will pile up before the end of the
will be with Princeton, October Z, at
Princeton, N. j., and here the blue and
gray will have a battle royal. 1t has been
heralded that this year Princeton will play
rushing game, but when the two teams
line up 1t will doubtless be found that
Georgetown will have several big men in
the line who can play the game some. Oc-
tober IA the team from Villa Nova College
will be in Georgetown, and the blue and
gray boys say they will surely score VIC
tory. The following Saturday. October p.
will come the contest with Swarthmore.
and here Georgetown Will again encounter
foe worthy of her steel. Swarthmore
generally puts forward. a team upon the
gridiron that can hold Its own with any Of
the big colleges. and at the end still be
a-coming. After this game Georgetown Uni
versity will 80 to Washington, Pa, October
%, to contest with Washington and Jeffer-
son College. The next succeeding game will
be at Richmond, Va, November 4, when
the team of the University Of North Caro-
lima will be encountered. Georgetown ex-
poets a victory to their credit in this con-
test. November IL will come the contest
upon Georgetown Field between Virginia
and the sturdy athletes representing tho
4 A.
largest attendance Of the season. Bucknell
College will come to Georgetown November
IS, when an interesting contest is antici-
pated. George Washington University will
contest with Georgetown November
rs, and this will be another battle royal.
George Washington University. as well as
Georgetown, will have the benefit of long
schedule, and both teams should be ready
to show the best article of foot ball they
are able to put up. The roofing will no
doubt be feature. s
The Thanksgiving day at Georgetown will
be with the Carlisle Indians, and those who
remember what kind of ball the red men
put up will await the contest with much
interest. Carlisle this season will play West
Point for the first time In her history, and
the gridiron battle with the soldiers, as well
as her other contests, will put the team in
fighting trim. Carlisle has Bemis Pierce,
the giant tackle of several years ago. who
is coaching the men In the line. and Frank
Hudson. regarded the best, punter the
INDIANS ever produced, Will Wofk Win the
men behind the line. Hudson was a re-
markable quarterback, and his knowledge
of trick plays is wide. Georgetown Uni
yersity, II will be seen, In the closing game
of the season will have to play all of the
time If the wreath OF laurel is to rest upon
the brows of the boys of the blue and gray
at the close of the contest and the foot bail
season of 1905.
General and Personal.
The parochial school of Trinity Church
will open Monday morning. and from four
to five hundred of Georgetown's younger
boys and girls will begin another year Of
study. 1t IL thought that the attendance
will be larger than in former years. and
this fact is to a great extent attributed to
the excellent system OF instruction which
Is given at the school.
1t was believed that the recent police
crusade had driven the policy players out Of
business but from the latest reports they
appear to be at 1t again. The colored peo-
pie along the canal are the usual victims Of
the sharps. The police OF the seventh pre-
cinct station have been notified and are on
the lookout for those who have been solicit
ing persons to enter the games.
George Miles. thirty years of age, was
arrested about $50 o'clock. Friday even
