MRS. CHADWICK IN PRISON.
Famous Confidence Woman Begins
Her Term in Ohio P~enitentiary.

Famous Confidence Woman Begins
Her Term in Ohio Penitentiary.
Cleveland, Ohio.-Cassie L. Chad
wick left for the Ohio Penitentiary at
Columbus under the guard Of United
States Marshal Chandler.
Mrs. Chadwick's last night in the
county Jail was sleepless. She was up
all night, packing her effects and ar
ranging her toilet. Early in the even
ing she sent word that she would like
to say good-by to the Jail attaches.
One by one they went to her to ex-
change farewells.
The last person to call was Emil
Hoover, her son. He stayed only a
short time.
Her breakfast was sent to her early,
but she ate little.
Promptly at Z o'clock she was de-
livered to Marshal Chandler. She was
gowned in a heavy brown dress, Sc
verely plain except for q gayly col.
ored collar. A long, heavy black veil
completely hid her features.
Inside the carriage Mrs. Chadwick
raised her veil and sat with gaze fixed
on the carriage windows. At Union
Station she was helped out by Chan
der and led through the train shed:
In the dim light of the smoky station
her face looked white and haggard
and deep lines were apparent. Her
white hair was combed low on her
forehead.
Mrs. Chadwick has gained weight
while in the jail. Jail attaches say
she has been we'll to outward appear
ances, though her doctor came to see
her frequently.
One of Mrs. Chadwick's last acts
here was to purchase a rug for her cell
in the penitentiary.

UNScoNcIoUS POISONING.
How It Often Happens From Coffee.

man, "that it was the coffee l had been
drinking all my life that was response

for the acute nervousness which IN.

good effects of the new food drink were
apparent within a very few days. My

ness has gone and / am able to enjoy
life with my neighbors and sleep sound

nerve power have increased SO much
that I can do double the work I used
to do, and I feel no undue fatigue af-

"This improvement set in just as

worked out of my system as to allow

HARVARD DROPS FOOTBALL
0~verseers Put Stop to lntercol|e-
giate Contests.
YALE, IT IS SAID, WILL FOLLOW

Game Must Be Reformed Acceptably Be-
fore Crimson Players Will Be Allowed
to observation-disclosures by Presi-
dent Eliot, OF Harvard, and President
Butler, of Columbia.
Cambridge. Mass.-Football has been
abolished at Harvard, pending a reform
in the game that will be acceptable
to the Board of Overseers, according to
IN official announcement at the uni
versity. The discontinuance Of the
game is a result of a vote taken last
week at a secret meeting Of the over
seers, when it was decided that inter-
collegiate football at Harvard you'd
not be permitted until the rules and
regulations had been so changed and
amended as to remove what the over
seerS regard as the evils of the present
game.
The overseers accepted unanimously
the opinions of a special committee
that the game as at present played Is
essentially bad in every respect, that
the methods of formation encourage
trickery and foul play and that the
result is bad for the morals Of the
players as we'll as for the body. The
committee declared that if changes
were to be made no man now g mem
Der of the so-called intercollegiate
Rules Committee should have a hand
in 1t, the committee believing that
these persons are so far committed to
the present system that they could not
agree to such changes as are absolutely
necessary to produce a decent. clean,
pleasureable contest. INSTEAD Of the
present apology for a rough and tumble
fight"
President Eliot. in an interview, said:
Il for one shall never consent to in
ter%collegiate football being resumed at
Harvard until 1t has been demonstrated
in actual play that the Objectionable
features of the game have been ruled
out. A mere paper reform Will not
secure my sanction.
"Let the game under the new rules
be played by teams made up entirely
of our own, students, as for instance
by two class teams. Then If We find
that the reform is actual and not a
mere paper reform, we. will invite
other colleges to play with u.s."
That Yale is to follow Harvard is
stated by a representative Of President
Nicholas Murray Butler, Of Columbia,
who said:
"You will see Yale taking a similar
step In q very short time. The author
tiles here have information which leads
them to believe that Yale Is only wait
ing for an opportunity to follow the
lead Of Harvard and Columbia"
The Harvard varsity eleven elected
Hatherly Foster, 'O7, captain Of the
team for 1905. Foster played left half
