FiqhtS Own Battles.
is PLAYING AT HAMILTON.

Captain Harry Harms took his band
of Richmond high school football war
riors to Hamilton, O., this morning,
where they played the high school
team of that city this afternoon. The
team was not accompanied by any
high school teacher; going alone to
fight the battle without the least en-
couragement from the school or school
authorities.
Capt. Harms said this morning, that
Hamilton is about the strongest high
school team in this section of the
country and Richmond could not hope
to do more than hold the Buckeyes
to a low score. Karl Allison and
Carlos Haas, Richmond's two star
players who have been in the game
but few times this year for various
reasons played this afternoon and
Capt. Harms expects much from these
two men on offensive work.

Indiana's defense was riddled and its
offense crumbled on Jordan Field Fri
day afternoon. Twice in the first half
when the crimson goal line was in dan
ger Sinnock hurled the ball over the
struggling mass OF athletes and there
was an Illinois player there to grab it
and carry 1t over. Both goals were
missed, but they were not needed, for
Indiana's only score came in the sec.

ty-five yard line and raced eighty-five
yards for touchdown with the whole
Illinois team on his heels. A goal
was kicked. but neither team could
score again and the final count was 10

There is little rejoicing here, al
though the Indiana supporters feel
that their team made creditable SOW

guard, out OF the game, and mere
novice pitted against Van Hook a weak
spot was unavoidable. This and the
failure to solve the forward pass in

Pixies Peak. that lofty elevation in

be no more. Never again will Tommy
Ritter be obliged to run up and down
its sides in pursuit of elusive horse
hides; neither will he get the chance
to pull off some of his sensational

began blowing and grading the outfeld
and when the work is completed the
entire surface of the baseball field will
be smooth. There will be neither
hills nor gulleys. When the work is
completed there will be no better base
ball field in the state. The ground
will be sodded again in the spring, pre-
liminary to the opening of the base
ball season.
Among the many other improve
ments planned. is the extension to the
present grandstand. Directors of the
Richmond Amusement association be
fore the winter has ended will place a
contract for this work.
1t is the present plan 10 extend the
grandstand close to the bleachers. Di
rectors feel that this would be a paying
venture as the popularity of the grand
stand last year was clearly indicated
on warm or showery days.

HER GOLDEN BALL.
An Incident Of Revolutionary Times on

An Incident Of Revolutionary Times on
Long Island.
Probably no game Of ball by pro-
fessional or college team was ever
watched with such inner interest
but with such outward Indifference, as
one described in Gertrude Vanderbilt's
Social History of Flatbush." 1t hap
pened in Revolutionary times. when
the British soldiers were stationed on
Long Island. The inhabitants had
hidden their valuables in all possible
places. One lady concealed some gold
coins in a ball shaped pincushion of
suspended at her side.
She was sitting sewing one day when
a party Of British soldiers entered the
room. A young officer. spying what
to him was a novelty. cut with his
sword the ribbon by which the cushion
was hung and began a game Of ball.
Soon the rest Of the company Joined
the sport. Boisterously from hand to
hand the ball was batted to and fro.
It was roughly snatched and tossed,
and sometimes 1t fell into the ashes of
the fireplace and barely escaped con-
fiagration. Now and again a soldier
would catch 1t on the tip OF his sword
and send 1t spinning on with a rent
in its side.

the precious contents. To show the
least anxiety was to betray the secret

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 23.-The
football season in the East will prac
tically eliminate today with the bien.
NAL game in the stadium on Soldiers
Field between Harvard and Yale
Nearly 10000 people will witness the
contest, and it is probable that a
the expectation of seeing Yale add an,
other to her long list of victories over
the crimson.
Football enthusiasts, who have pour.
ed into Boston for two days, are
strangely inclined to look for another
Yale victory and have made the bet
ting odds on the result almost pro-
hibitive. What wagers are reported
have been almost entirely on the size
of crossing Yale's goal line or kick
ing q goal from the field.
The actors in the football drama in
the stadium arena spent the night
some miles from the scene Of the i'm
pending conflict and far away from
the turmoil Of the gathering crowds
and the attending excitement. The
Harvard team went twenty miles into
the country to seek seclusion at the
Norfolk Gun club at Medfield.
The Yale athletes reached their no
tel at Auburndale in the Newton dis
trfct and went with the team to a
nearby field for a little limberfng up
and signal practice. The rest of the
day was given up to stories OF past
Yale victories and old-time players.

Thursday, vIsIrA. OKLA. Oct.


Pleasant Porter, ,thelast elected
chief Of the Creek Nation, and
the best known Of the many
noted Indians OF this country,
was buried in the family Gene
terry at Weeleetka, Indian Terri
tory, on September A, 1907. For
many years General Porter was
a conspicuous figure during the
sessions Of congress in Washing
ton. AS principal chief of one
OF tive most powerful members of
the Five Civilized Indian Nations,
his duty was to be in the capital
city Of the country and appear
before every committee in which
questions affecting his people
were constantly coming up, and
a notice that Chief Porter was to
appear for or against any meas
ure was sufficient to pack a com
mittee room to its utmost capac-
ity.
Chief Porter was noted man
in many respects. His strong,
mobile face would attract atten-
tion in any assemblage Of men,
even if every one Of them was
famous for some particular
achievement. He was a marked
figure and would arrest a glance
rowing over the faces Of an assem-
blage of men, each of which
might be worthy Of close study
and scrutiny. Among the Indians
he acquired the reputation of a
great chief, wise in council and
terrible in war. Among white
men he was known as man pos
sessing qualities whlcn make the
highest type Of citizens. Patri-
otic, public spirited, with an in
tegrity that was Eever questioned
by those who knew him, the
great chief of the Creeks had the
virtues of both races and the
vices Of neither.
A large number of men who
have never been trained in the
nicities of life in their early days,
among cultured and refined peo-
pie, and who have escaped criti-
cism because Of innate gentle
ness, have been described as
Natures Nobleman. There
never was a man born whom the
appellation of Natures Noble
man better fitted than it did
when applied to the late chief Of
the Creeks.--Mid- Continent.
