PLAYED Association Game.

Yesterday afternoon the crowd which
instead of attending the reception
aboard the Missouri. remained to see
the return Of the Prince, was given q
chance TO witness a game of Associa-
tion football as played in England.
The game, which was not finished,
was played on the Midshipmen' field
at Oklahoma, which had been loaned
the sailors of the Cornwall and the
Drake for the occasion. The English
Jackies only played half Of their reg
plar game, as they saw that the MILDLY
football squad swas out and waiting
for the afternoon practice. One of the
latter getting bit impatient, caused
quite q laugh through the answer he
got to his question How long is this
half - To this the British jackie.
unthinkingly replied Three quar-
ters. meaning three quarters OF an
hour. The game was an interesting
one from the fact Of its novelty and
was closely followed by the crowd.

Good Stories Told of Absent-Minded
Ohio Man.

Sweet" Brown, carpenter and job
Der, has suddenly sprung into prom
inence as the most absent minded
man in southern Ohio, and the stories
that are being told Of his forgetful-
ness indicate that his mind and his
body are at least as far apart as his
home and Cincinnati, which is sixty
miles.
Browns last achievement, chroni-
cled in his home paper, was per-
formed short time ago. He was
building a corn crib for a farmer at
the edge Of town, and finished it
with himself inside, and the saw out
side, SO he had to call for help, being
unable to pry loose the boards he had
nailed on with his light hammer
He explained that he was think
ing of something else
Ono of his remarkable feats was
told by woman for whom he was
doing some repairing He located a
leak in the roof and then cliinbed
onto the top of the house to fix the
shingles, but was unable to find the
spot, so he again assembled into the
garnet, marked a large chalf mark
around the leak, and went back up
onto the top Of the house to fix it.
The cistern in his pasture lot ran
dry, and he was forced to drive his
cow along the road a quarter of
mile to a spring for water while, the
cistern was being repaired, and one
morning he opened the pasture gate,
walked out, trudged down to the
spring, and then discovered he had
forgotten the COW.

dies he will forget to attend the fun
