There was hard practice at all the big
universities yesterday in preparation for
Saturdays games, and IN several Instances
important changes in the personnel OF tire
teams The first move was made at Har-
ward to strengthen the right side of the
Crmson-llne of which complaint has been
made almost from the start Of the season
Dan Knowlton was placed at right tackle.
and appears likely to remain the!e Burr
was again tried al guard, where he may
get q chance on account Of his kicking.
The other changes were rather to give the
regular men a rest than of any real sig
nificance
Yale tried Turner at tackle instead o.
Bigelcw. who was severely scored for his
poor play in the Pennsylvania state game,
aud put Gillis at center instead Of Flanders.
In the opinion OF good judges there is no
great likelihood of either change being per-
manent.
Princeton made changes also, but oaly to
replace Brashear at end because of his In
capacitatiCn The only real question re-
gardng the make up of the Tigers seems
to be whether Dillon or Tenney Will play
quarter. and which of the haifbacks, IL
either, Simons shall displace.
Pennsy's Continued I'll Luck.
There seems to be no dininution in The
casualties that have been lowering over
the University of Pennsylvania foot bait
warriors this season. The third broken leg
of the season happened yesterday during
the scrimmage work between the varsity
and scrub elevens. Takarki. the plucky IL

been working faithfully to learn the Amer

of this accident. and has row joined is
fellow playmates, Weede and Hol enbat k
in the hospital who have suffered the same
mshars. Fortunately Takarki f,actu e Is

the ankle is injured and 1t is thought Will
not be serious his college ma es.
Strange to say, all three injured legs rave
been left ones. and the three victims played
left end for their respective teams This
position seems TO be the hoodoo at Frank
lin Field.
In the practice yesterday the two var
sity teams ran signals for a half hour. The
spirit displayed in this work skaters al
rumers that the team is about to slump.
The helping and handling of the bal, was
excellent, as every one seemed to know
just what he was to do In each play Fo'-

Tommy AIulligan, Of the Seventh
Grade. was absent from the class room
for one entire day. 1t would appear
that he had played truant. for un-
known to Tommy, his teacher had
spied him trudging homewArd with
pockets bulging suspiciously when she.
too. was homeward bound that after
noon
But Tommy brought note of ex~
cuse the next morning, which, OF
course, would prove that he had been
detained at home legitimately. The
writing was hardly that of a feminine
hand. and the note appeared to have
been written laboriously and with
much blotting; furthermore. the PEN
manship seemed strangely familiar to
his teacher. The note read as follows:

An amusing story is told OF the per-
sistence Of reporter on metropoli-
tan daily who had Id assigned TO
interview ]. Pierpont Morgan.
1t appears that the newspaper man.
who had made sundry attempts to see
the financier. both at his office and at
his residence. was each time denied
admittance. The young man was at
his wits end TO devise means 10 car
ry out the Instructions Of his chief.
Finally. however, MS opportunity
came accidentally. This occurred iu
course OF an interview the reporter
was having with another man high IN
financial circles.
In their conversation the moneyed
man. for some reason or other. had
given the reporter his card; whereupon
the latter was seized with great idea.
Fastening to the residence of Mr..
Morgan. he sent in both his own card
and that Of the tinancler from whom
he had Just parted.
AS he had surmised. the doors were
opened TO him, and most gracious
reception was ACCORDED by Mf. Nor
gan.
When he had stated the reason for
his call. the financler said: do you
know, young man. that at least ten re-
porters have tried to see me Today

The reporter smiled and replied:

German health officers who have
been investigating conditions in the
railroad trains Of rha clunery, says
the Boston Herald, have arrived at the
rather surprising conclusion that one
runs more risk in travelling second
class OH the railways Of the empire
than in taking third-cass carriages.
The reason for this : that the third
class cars have uncushioned wooden
benches which do not harbor as many
germs as do the cushions provided in
the second-class cars. In this country
there has been action aiken in some of
the States absolutely forbidding the
use Of plush or any similar mai aral
as a covering for car seats.
