WATERBURY BEATEN.
New Haven Downed Us Bv Score Q
 10 to 5. l


 There is but little to be said about that game of last evening, only that we were outplayed and outclassed from first to last. It was humiliat- ing, too, to see Bone and his outfit reap a harvest over our dead bodies. We couldn't beat New Haven be- cause we couldn't, that was about all of it. We tried hard enough, but somehow or other Bone and his hus ting bunch had the Indian sign tied high and dry over the Waterbury dressing room. It was utterly i'm possible for us to win and even il Bobby LoXson had been on the floor we would have to show our best stunts. It was an awful beating, the worse we have yet received. Our re- cuperative powers in the last period saved us from an utter rout. Tho fans even then cheered our boys on, hoping against hope that we would pull out of the fire, but it was of no use, we were fated for defeat and de- feat we got and got it plenty.
 Fahey started us on the road to victory by scoring the first goal in some seconds over two minutes. After that we were simply tied fast and our feet seemed frozen, while New Haven had a merry go round. Five times did they send the little red fellow behind Davy Cusick be- fore the timer mercifully rang the bell for the closing of the first period. In the second they scored two more, while we did nothing. In the third Fahey scored twice more, and Murray once, and New Haven, just to be sociable, scored three times herself. Then the bell rang and the agony was over. The lineup and summary:

HARTFORD GOT A SURPRISE.

The Grays defeated Hartford last night 4 to 2. Sensational goal tend ing by both cage guardians marked the contest. The exhibition of stop and-kickout at either end of the sur face surpassed anything seen at the hall this season. Tibbitts handed out the goods to the entire appprobation of the bleachers all past offences be- ing forgiven. Sutherland also show ed that he knows a thing or two about covering the cage. With the splendid work of the Knights of the Semi-C Circle equally fine, performance by the floor men was rendered almost nil.
 Tibbitts was peppered unmercifully especially in the first and third per- iods, Hart. Coggeshall and Lincoln shooting at him from all angles. The big fellow responded nobly many of his stops bordering on the marvellous. At the other end Sutherland was kept busy and booted out eleven drives in the first period, that seemed destined for the cage Three times, however, he had to succumb but each time it was on shots that get past every goal tender in the business. The sum- mary:

Carlisle, Pa. Dec 2O.-As a result of the recent agitation regarding the eligibility of some of CaTlisle's ln- dian football players. the athletic management has adopted an eligibii- ity code that will. the authorities here feel. do away with much of the criticism that has been made against the Indians in the past. The man. agement very frankly states that it would be impossible to draft an ath- letic code at Carlisle that would in every way correspond with that of the big universities. As far as pOssi- ble, however. the same restrictions surrounding eligibility of players in the other colleges will apply to Car Iisle. One of the features of the Car HsIe code is that no player shall be permitted to b. a member of the team for more than four years The statement iSsued from Carlisle IS signed by G. S- Warner. head foot ball coach and athletic director. and by 4. N. yenne and W H Miller, sacretary and treasurer of the aSs0- cfatfon- It is as foIlows in part:
 The athletic management Of the Carlisle Indian school feels that 0E- ing to the pHblfcity given hy the press to a lot of sensational charge: as to the eligibility of the members of the present sszsonTs football squad it would be but justice tO the Car Esls players that an sEplzzztio1 ae made to the several colleges and u1i- Ferxities vho have Eet thsu thi'

BANK INSTALLS
A new SYSTEM
VAULT is LINED WITH STEEL
PLATES THAT ARE ELECTRI-
CALLY CHARGED.

The man who makes" VS.. the man
who takes" is being given demon
stration at the Ottumwa National
bank since That institution has in
stalled the new system of bank pro-
lection that was completed and
thrown open for the public inspection
yesterday.
To keep the burglar out Of the vault
is the mission of this system of pro-
lection. To do this the entire inside
of the vault is lined with a double
plate of sheet STEEL This steel
lining is continuous and covers every
square inch of the inside of the vault
top, bottom, Sides ends, vestibule and
door. This steel lining is kept cons.
family charged with electricity from
powerful batteries placed inside of the
vault. Located about the bank build.
Ing are five immense fire gongs. These
are all set in circuit with the steel
lining and door, and so protected
violence. and yet so delicately con
structed that the slightest attack up
on any one of them will throw the
whole five into operation. The power
for running the alarm. as well as all
means of control, is located In the
switch board cabinet placed inside the
vault surrounded by the steel lining
Now with all sources of alarm on the
outside of the vault and all means OF
control on the inside, it can be plain
ly seen that vault SO protected is
dangerous to tackle. The gongs when
| started can be heard for several
blocks around the bank on which they
are located and will continue to ring
until shut off from the inside by the
banker.
| Substantial Construction.
! All eposed parts of the system are
built to Withstand the ravages of time
as well as the wilds as man.
In the switchboard to which it was
referred. is to be found double
set of electrical timers, which control
| the opening and closing of the vault
door, and these timers can be set al
any nour from until II p. M, and
when once set they make it absolutely
impossible even to move the comb
nation dial before 6 in the morning
or to fail to lock up in the evening.
Hence before the charge goes on
the door 1t must be completely locked
and before IL passes off the next morn
ing 1t must be left locked. The
electrical systems made by this com
pany are practically automatic in the
sense that no burden Is thrown on the
banker. except to wind his timers
once week and lock his vault door
every night. The electrical force is
tested every time the bankers throws
his bolts to lock or unlock his vault
door. Additional test buttons are 10
Gated on the switchboard, covering
every feature of the system individu
ally.

VERM|LION SENDS
Girl TO Home
EMMA ADLER REFUSES TO TEs-
THY AGAINST UNCLE-LATTER
GETS 8 MONTHS IN JAIL,

Fairfield, Oct "a. Judge Verlnilion
and the attorneys for the state and
defense In the case of the State of
Iowa VS.. Frank Adler, who was in
dicted charged with having committed
rape upon his little niece, Emma
Adler, met with an unusual exper-
fence in court yesterday afternoon
and today. The little girl, who was
the prosecuting witness, failed to an
swer any of the questions put to her
by either the county attorney or the
attorneys for the defendant and all
efforts to get her to answe' the SIM
plest questions was impossible She
was mute to all intents AMI pur-
poses and nothing could induce her
to say even yes and no.
Believed She Was Intimidated.
1t was the general opinion that she
took to heart the various threats that
are alleged to. have been made by the
defendant that If he were sent to the
penitentiary he would kill all of those
who had testified against him, or
words to that effect. At any rate,
when she was taken to the office of
the county attorney she willingly told
her story to Mr.. Huglin, an din the
presence Of his stenographer, but
when confronted in court by the de-
PENDANT, she was dumb.
This state of affairs existed upon
the adjournment for diner. During
the noon hour the defendant, through
his attorneys, Grail & Grail, agreed to
plead guilty to a lesser charge, that
of an assault with intent to commit
great bodily injury.
Sentence of Three Months.
This was accepted by the state and
the court sentenced Frank Adler to
three months at hard labor in the
county jail and to pay the costs of this
prosecution.
Judge Vermillion stated that the
girl was not entirely to blame for the
situation of not answering, AMI that
her surroundings at home were moi
such as to allow her to go oack. He
Instructed the county attorney to
draw up papers committing her to the
Juvenile Home and she will be sent
