Many Teams Crippled.

One thing that has disappointed
many persons who are following the
new game OF football is the persist
ence with which the small accidents
are Gripping the elevens. Yale has
had three men laid out since the sea-
son began, the injury to Roome being
one ,that has operated the worst
against the Blue Pennsylvania, which
seems to have been pursued by ad-
verse fates, also has three men on the
sick list Harvard has Appolonio in
the down and out club temporarily.
Cornell has been pretty free from in
juries, and Princeton, too, has been
lucky to date.
The worry is not so much about
what happens now as what will come
later in the season. Yale can afford,
in a way, to lose man or so for the
early games. 1t is what happens when
the big contests are close at hand that
counts for the college teams. 1t is
this tendency toward Fostering in
juries that has the elevens on the
anxious seat. If the game has sus-
capabilities of laying out players
there are fears that some of the
games may do even more toward
wrecking the teams.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1906-11-02

Take, for instance, the Yale-Syra-
cuse and Princeton-Lehigh matches
this season. The ssturdiness of Prince
ton has called for comment. There
probably have been few heavier
Princeton teams, except when one
hanks back to the day of Bill Ed
wards, Crowds and Booth. Still
against Lehigh, weak though the
South Bethlehem men may have
been, the Tigers were able to display
an amount of sprightliness that made
high scoring surety from the start.
Fifty-two points in two short halves
is going some. Yale may well have
a fear of Princeton this year. A fast,
heavy Tiger team has to be looked
out for 1t has been said that they
do not know how to teach football at
Princeton, and, taken by and large,
that is a true statement. But this
years Princeton eleven will take bit
of looking at.

The Quality of Smartness in Dress

Never has there been a season In
which greater variety of styles mas
been displayed than this year, afford
ing every woman that opportunity OF
selection which shall best suit her
needs. In fact there is no reason why
every woman should not have that
quality of dress which shall entitle
her to the designation of smartness
in her costume, subtle quality which
more than richness of material or
elaborateness of design marks the
we'll dressed woman. This smartness
which is so desirable is really very
elusive. Truth of line is the prime
requisite of smartness in dress, and
Helen Berkeley-Lloyd declares in the
Delineator that mot until all our wom-
en- recognize this fact can they hope to
create gowns which even approach the
smartness shown in the imported mod
els"
In our illustration we show blouse
Jacket for autumn wear which is par
ticularly smart in get-up and suitable
for making to match the skirt, of,
the back; the fronts are slightly full
at the waist; the right front crosses
the left and fastens invisibly below
the bust; it is lined with blue and
white striped silk. The deep collar
and revers are cut in one; they are
of white cloth, lined with silk; no
muslin or stiffening is required, as the
collar must fall quite softly over the
shoulders. 1t is trimmed with narrow
blue silk braid arranged in fancy
looped pattern. The deep cuffs to the
short pulled sleeves are made to
match the collar, only must be made
up over canvas or stiff muslin so that
they may stand well away from the
arm. The basque is lined with silk,
and is added to the blouse jacket I'M
der a belt of the white cloth fastened
with silver buckle.

The manufacturers are forever i'm
proving velveteen, a most advantag-
eous fabric, which now has granted
unto it a soft finish, bringing it into
close resemblance with chiffon-veivet.
1t appears, too, in many excellent col
ors, mulberry being one of the great
est successes, and this in combination
with yellowish lace and ivory chiffon,
/ plead most heartily as the selection
for an autumn tea gown of your de-
light, the lace being used with great
profusion about the neck to the waist,
and in full frills on the wide sleeves
of velvet, which should assume bell
shape at the back of the elbow and
be short in the front.
Velveteen of the ordinary type
would select for best frocks for little
and big girls for the autumn, and as
l mentioned last week, this makes an
excellent foundation to the decoration
of braids, fashion which may obtain
on every popular style of coat and
skirt. a1
A rifie-green velveteen has a round
skirt reaching to the ground, with
broad tabs of braid on the hem, and
a coat tightly fitting at the back.
slightly loose in the front, with tabs
of braid outlining the waistcoat of
chine silk which reveals blouse Of
soft lace and chine ribbon. The hat
which completes the dress most ad-
mirably is of soft green beaver with
a scarf of chiffon held at one side
by bunch of purple and bunch of
green grapes.
1 have been Investigating the ques-
ton of evening gowns with the result
that / find the most inexpensive are
being made of muslin voile, and an
excellent model in this shows cross
way bands of glace silk stitched at
intervals up to the knees, and the
bodice bearing tulle chemisette, and
a deep and pointed collar round the
shoulders made Of alternate rows of
the glace and the muslin.

BIRDS THAT ENJOY DANCING
Have Regular "Ball Rooms" for Their
Gyrataions.

Dancing is by no means confined to
quadrupeds; it is the principal play
OF many birds.
Perhaps the finest of bird dancers
Is the South American cock O. the
rock. These birds have regular dane
Ing places, level spots which they keep
clear of sticks and stones.
A dozen or more of the bird dane
ers assemble around this spot, and
then a cock bird, his scarlet crest
erect, steps into the center. Spread
ing his wings and tail, he begins to
dance, at first with slow and state
ly steps, then gradually more and
more rapidly until he is spinning like
a mad thing. At last, tired out, he
sinks down. hops out of the ring and
another takes his place
Some of the quail tribe are great
dancers, and so are the American sand
hill cranes. 1t is a most ludicrous
sight to watch crane dancing; he is
SO desperately solemn over the whole
performance. He looks like a shy
young man who has just learned to
waltz and is rather ashamed of the
accomplishment

Joined the Professionals.

Tommy Thorp and Hal Townsend,
two former Columbia football players,
are listed as players for the Canton,
O., professional eleven, which meets
Massillion later in big annual game.
The lineup includes some star players
but unfortunately or fortunately there
is not enough interest in professional
football to make the game go around
there. Heston, the great Michigan
halfback, was one of the players, and
in fact the organizer of the Massillion
team last year. This season Sandy
Thomas of Purdue, the great hammer
thrower and football player, has en-
listed with Massillion.

Wherever" said the sage, who was
wise in her generation, there is
feast of fashion, you may find flow
of souls and bodies eager for the
fray" And just now in the large cit
lies of the country, especially New
York and Chicago, there is veritable
banquet of necessities well garnished
with luxuries fit for the autumn sea-
son. The point which rests with you
is to pay your money and take your
choice, and let me fervently hope you
will be guided little in that choice
by a special consideration for your
individual figure, and that the stout
woman will not be lured by the fasci-
nations, which I admit are very great,
of the three-quarter length coats
which obtain under tight-fitting and
loose-fitting aspects, made of tweed,
and made of cloth, belted and unbelt-
ed, with velvet or braided collars,
double-breasted and single-breasted,
each in itself possessing much to en-
tice popularity. And popularity they
deserve, but they must be worn by
the right woman or they will not look
well, and the stout and the short must
be urged to turn aside from their at
fractions and devote their ambitions
towards the coat which has short,
straight basque sloping away grad
ually from Ii single breasted front.
The REFER coat especially 1 would
recommend; also, while noting that it
is to be obtained hand or machine
knitted in many dark colors as well
as in white, this makes capital golf
costume in combination with a plain
skirt of the popular Highland clan,
and small toque with cock feathers.
The most favored costume is of
black cloth; this, being considered
prominently safe, is chosen by six
women out of eight, and, trimmed to
discretion with lines of black silk
braid either on the pleated or blouse
bodice or the tight coat, it can be
suited easily to the condition of best
gown or everyday gown.

What Will the Score Be?


1t was Stagg or Yost who said that
the new rules would be productive of
low scoring. especially in the big
games The westerner who made the
prediction said that no more than 20
points would be tailed in any one
OF the big contests. That was unfair
in this way, because the big games
seldom have produced scores as large
as that on one side or the other, al
though the total points scored may
have been 20. And when in the sum-
mer, just after the sense of the new
rules was promulgated, two Nebraska
teams met and played for SO minutes
without scoring on either side, it was
declared that the new game would be
only an uninteresting, dull succession
of punts and ineffective rushes. How
false both of these deductions were
the new game is showing conclusive
ly every day. Football is once more
the alert, fascinating game of Is or
20 years ago, and the teams are able
81 score heavily.

WHY MARRIAGE is FAILURE.

Marriage isn't a failure unless the
parties to the contract are.
49, =. - =. =. =sF,
seeming to give with one hand,-the
said salary to the clergy, which re-
presented indeed only a small percent
age of interest on the estate the gov
eminent had seized-they took back
more than the equivalent, by stipulat-
ing as a condition of the restitution of
the ill-gotten goods, that the govern
ment should also have its word to say
in the appointments of all the clergy
men either to the parishes or to the
bishoprics.
The consequence Of this measure was
that the government would now re-
commend for the clerical offices, not
such persons who distinguished them
selves by their ecclesiastical spirit but
rather those that were more of a friend
to the state than to the church. God
knows how many entanglements this
unfortunate condition has created for
the church. / guess, the devil has his
fingers crooked and pointed like fish
hooks, so that whatever he catches he
never can let loose again. His friends
at the head of the French government
forgetting quickly the fundamental
condition of their contract with the
church, acted as If I'm paying the stipu-
lated salaries, they were giving mere
generosities to the clergy. Bad debtors,
they wanted a divorce from the church
in order to free themselves from the
sworn debt they owed her. And with
out any remorse they simply denounced
the concordat and refused to pay any
longer the well known debt.
