bURSTED BALL
MAKES TROUBLE
Crowd Thinks Player Is Shot
and Chases Opponent
Into SWamps.

A queer accident happened last week
on Yale's football field, in which Burt
L. Brown, senior, was knocked un-
conscious and left for dead on the field
while the spectators were chasing the
giant fullback of an opposing team into
the nearby swamps.
While the varsity team was playing
Pennsylvania State on Yale field, the
''Sons OF BeliaI' team, composed of
Yale seniors. had a game with the Mt
Carmel Giants, team Of stalwart
farmer lads
a big crowd OF Yale supporters was
on hand to cheer the college men. The
second half of the game was nearly
over when Brown, the Yale halfback,
who had the ball, made a run down
the field for the Mt. Carmel goalpost
Just as he was about to push the ball
over he was tackled by the giant full
back of the Mt. Carmels. There was a
report like a pistol shot and Brown
dropped as if dead.
He shot him, Don't let him get
awayr' was yelled from the bleachers
and in an instant the crowd made for
the fullback. The latter didn't stop TO
argue but took TO his heels, making
over fences for the woods, with the
mob after him. Finally he plunged
into swamp, the crowd not venturing
to follow. Somebody thought of Brown
lying supposedly dead on the field and
a rush was made for him. He was
still stretched cut but convulsed with
laughter. Nearby was an exploded
football. The crowd then yelled to the
marooned fullback that it was safe for
him to come back.

YEARS DEATHS
ON DIAMOND
Nearly As Many Killed This
Season in Baseball as
on Gridiron.

Now that the knights Of the diamond
have given place to the fiercer heroes of
the gridiron, fans and football enthusi-
asts are casting up few comparisons
as to the final cost in human lives Of
these two sports, the opinion is that
football is not so bad after ALL"
This season twelve baseball players
were killed. The batted ball, the pitched
ball and the thrown bali all proved
deadly. Aside from those who met
death in games. baseball has indirectly,
at least. dozen victims, who fell off
roofs, died OF heart disease or were run
over by cars while hurrying to games.
The list of players to whom the great
national sport was fatal. is:
Joseph Schneider, Germantown, Pa,
died Of exhaustion after home-run at
Belmont, July ?.
Frank Welson. Philadelphia; struck
and killed by bat that slipped from
friends hand in game. May 20.
George T. Snyder, old-time baseball
player, stricken with heart disease as he
made a two-bagger.
William Garrison, Philadelphia, rup-
tured a blood vessel striking ball in
Camden. April u.
Casper Musselman, catasauqua, Pa.
hit over heart by pitched ball. Aug. 20.
Alfred Mayer, struck with bat in
game at Allentown, April %.
John Atting, skull fractured by
pitched ball at Pottstown, July f.
Joseph j. Mcdonald OF Mount Holly.
n. j., hit on head by batted ball, Sep
tember 3.
Frederick Whitaker, Hamilton Ter
race, n. j., hit over heart by batted
ball, July %.
Eugene Harris, II years old, hit on
head by batted ball at Asheville,
April 8.
Thomas F. Burke, struck by pitched
bail at Lynn, Mass, Aug IL.
Henry Dyehl, hit by pitched ball at
Wooster, o., June 10.
Several spectators of ball games were
killed Thomas p. Baker was hit by a
bat that slipped from a players hands
at Camden. June is.
George G. Hackett was killed by a
batted ball in Philadelphia May 30.
Eva Bennett died of excitement
watching game in Philadelphia July
%
Fear that the Athletics might lose
brought a stroke of apoplexy to James
n. Benson of Philadelphia on April Is.
And so it goes. The list here given
is necessarily incomplete. but ii gives
an idea Of accidents which happened in
one part OF the country from baseball.

Year.

Princeton. y. j.. Nov. 3.-Princeton took
revenge on Dartmouth today for the last
years defeat by rolling up ~ points
against the New Hampshire eleven.
Princeton started the game in whirlwind
FASHION and scored in the first two min
utes of play. Glaze caught the ball on
the Kickoff, but his team failed to
gain and he punted to L. Dillon, who
picked mis- way through the whole Dart
line for touchdown. The visitors fought
plucklly throughout the game. but they
were hopelessiy outclassed and only made
two first downs during the contest Their
line was heavy and fast and their backs
speedy, but they made scarcely any use
OF the new rules and could not gain
through Prfnceton's line. After E. Dill
Ions sensational touchdown, Princeton
by a series of plays around end and
between end and tackle. soon had the
ball on Dartmouth's 35-yard line. from
which point Wister ran for a touchdown
AFTER catching the ball on forward
pass, The other touchdowns came in
rapid succession. ="

Main street where the Cochran
store now stands, and when
ready to begin business found
he did not have money sufficient
to run the business as he desired.
Knowing that the old man
Perkey, to whom he had sold his
farm, had some money on hand,
he went to that old gentleman's
residence one morning and after
passing the usual compliments he
told Mr.. Perkey all about his
business arrangements and CAL
culations; that he needed more
money than he then had on hand
and that he desired 10 borrow
from him. Mr.. Perkey very
readily agreed to loan him the
money and went to his wife's
trunk and brought out several
sacks of silver, for all the money
he had was silver, and poured
out their contents on the bare
floor. The old lady Perkey,
being out Of the room at this time
and hearing the money rafting
on the floor, rushed in to see
what was going on. She watched
the two count the money for
awhile, then said: "Now, old
