Suffice it to say that most of

He with his wife and children,
reside on the homestead claim
to which they have added from
time to time by purchase, until
their holdings now amount to
six hundred acres, acquiring the
means therefor by the ordinary
course of farming and careful
management.
Although Mr.. Lothrop has
carried ON his farming operations
almost without outside help. he
has found time TO serve the peo-
pie in local affairs. He is now
serving his twelfth year as town
clerk; also his fifth year as
school clerk. He has served
continuously On the executive
committee OF the board of trus
tees of Ward Academy since its

RUM0R OF BIG GAME.
Yale Nay Meet Chicago at Football
If H0rUard Can't Play.
[By telegraph to rhs Tribune.I

New Haven. Dec. 2S-It was rumored here to-
day that Alonzo A. stagg. the University OF
Chicago athletic director, came here two or
three days ago and talked with Walter Camp.
Yale's athletic adviser. concerning a football
game between Yale and Chicago next season.
The report could not be confirmed as Mr. Stagg
has gone to Springfield to attend the annual con-
vention OF the directors Of American University
gymnasiurns, while Mr.. Camp had left this city
for Chicago.
It was stated at Mr.. Camps office that his
trip TO the West purely one of business, but
IL was not denied that he might meet University
Of Chicago representatives during his absence.
Among the Yale players. the undergraduate
body and the alumni here. the idea Of q game
is received with enthusiasm. It is conceded, Of
course, that If Harvard retains football a con-
otherwise majority of Yale men favor re-
placing the Crimson with the Maroon
