Norfolk, Va,-The body of Cox
swain Robert II. Dodson, of the
battleship Minnesota's launch which
with its II occupants went to the bot
tom of Hampton Roads Tuesday
night, was found floating in the roads
Thursday and last night reports were
circulated, but almost Immediately
denied, that the other bodies had
been recovered 1t now seems to be
accepted in naval circles that the
launch was run down by coal barge
shortly after the boat carrying the IL
men left Discovery Landing.

FOUND AT LAST.
Launch that Was Lost in Hampton
Roads with II Men of the Navy on
Board Is Located.

Norfolk, Va.-After many hours
Of weary dragging of the waters
of Hampton Roads in a systematic
search by the navy for the bodies of
the II victims of the sinking of the
battleship Minnesota's launch on
Tuesday morning, a graphing party
last night located the launch and
bodies of the men in eight fathoms of
water off the Ripraps
The diver who went down to ex-
anime the launch reported that the
heads and arms of three men were
protruding from beneath the canvas
covering the men having made des-
perate fight for life.
All day long the search had been
kept up in the vicinity of the course
likely to have been taken by the party
on its return from Discovery Pier at
the exposition grounds to the warship
lying at anchor in the roads.
Washington, d. C.-Official no.
tice of the finding of the battleship
Minnesota's ill-fated launch, which
went to the bottom OF Hampton Roads
with II occupants on Tuesday morn
ing, was received by the navy depart
ment last night in a message from the
commander of the Atlantic fleet The
dispatch says the launch was grappled
by the dragging party and that the
launch was expected to be raised last
night. Several bodies were found.
but 'on account of the confined
space the number could not be
counted.

when they ordered groceries, then the
able. BY selling the stun that has
been put under the ban because of its
impurity, the mail order concerns
have been able to underscll the local
merchants living hundreds of miles
away from the great centers of Sup
ply.
In carrying on this trade in impure
goods, the mail order houses have
done the greatest injury to the con-
sumer. While the local merchant has
lost some trade, he has had at least
a part of the business of the ranch
man and miner in his vicinity. but
the consumer, who has been caught
by the cheap" prices offered, has
not got what he has been paying for
by long way, and there is no way
for him to get even.
AS it has proved with the groceries
sent out by the eastern mail order
II it is with the other lines
they work Off IN ...vnuana. The sad
dies an harness offered at phenom-
enally low prices, the buggies and
wagons, at prices which seem almost
like giving the vehicles away, the
kitchen utensils which are priced in
the voluminous catalogues at figures
that indicate the local merchants are
highway robbers, the dry goods that
are offered at such infinitesimal cost
as to compel the ordinary woman to
believe the mail order man is public
benefactor all of these eastern mail
order house offerings are on a par
with the proved quality OF the gro
ceries they have been selling-fraudu-
lent and put out to sell and not for
service. The confession on the gro-

Your local dealer stands ready to
duplicate every offer so seductively
set forth in the catalogues of mail or
der houses and more, says an ex-
change. He will trump the best trick
the mail order house ever played il
you will put down the spot cash and
accept from him class of goods de-
void of respectable ancestry, and upon
which no reputable manufacturer will
place his name. He can sell cheap
goods, too, If you will buy them from
MIN with your eyes shut. He can meet
the best price ever made by mail or
der house if you will plank down the
money and accept what he gives you
without question and without recourse
but you must not expect him to be
in his place of business every day In
the year ready and willing to furnish
expert help when you are in trouble,
ready and willing to stand back of ev-
erything he sells with his own reputa,
tion and the warranty Of a RESPONSE
BILE company.
Honest, now, don't you really pat
yourself on the back when you spend
your money in such a way that in sup
plying your own wants you help build
up the neighborhood in which you
live? OF course you do, and you act
on that idea yourself, but the trouble
is that you don't talk 1t enough to
your friends.-Streator Qll) Press.

home of James Kefover, farmer of
Zollarsville, near here, when a glycer-

The secret of how it has been that
some of the eastern mall order houses
which have done business in Montana
and elsewhere were able to undersell
local merchants on some lines of gro
ceries has been revealed. The revela-
sion has come about through the oper-
alton of the national pure food law.
One of the big mail order concerns,
which has done a great business in
Montana, makes the announcement
that it has closed its grocery depart
ment, giving in a circular it's reason
for doing SO because its maintenance
has been made impracticable by the
pure food laws just passed by con-
gress."

that the consumers have been fur
hished with adulterated food stuas

the ball over the Cornell line by hard
work, only to have the touchdowns dis
allowed because of holding. Once they
lost the ball two feet from the goal on
downs. and another time, when the ball
was only two yards from score. they
were again penalized for holding. In this
half the Quakers Were penalized seventy
five yards and held Cornell to one first
down. Pennsylvania clearly outplayed
Cornell in this half and yet, owing to her
holding proclivities, was able to name but
one touchdown.
Conditions were practically reversed in
the second half, although PENNSYLVANIA

by Cornell. In this half the lthacans
seemed to gain strength and several
times endangered the Pennsylvania goal.

NOW FOR ARMY-NAVY,
Both Teams Confident on Eve of
Final Big Game Of the Season.

ANNAPOLIS. Md, November 29-The
Navy foot ball team ran through signals
yesterday afternoon, but there was no
line 1t is now felt that everything
possible to turn out a winning team has
been done and every one at Annapolis
awaits the outcome of the game with a
reasonable degree of confidence. The
general feeling is that the Navy team is
equally as good as the Army eleven and
that if there is an even split in luck the
last years victory. 1t is felt here that
the. Nays ends and other linemen are
on the whole better than the Army's,
though it is admitted that the West Point
back field probably has greater average
strength. 1t is felt that the Army will
not be able to make consistent gains and
dependence is put upon the Navys knowl-
edge OF new foot ball to make scoring
likely at any time
Manager Welsheimer left for Philadel-
phia Yesterday morning to make arrange
ments for the reception of the team at
Hotel Walton. where the Navy squad will
stop as in previous years. The foot ball
squad under Lieut.. Commander ]. NJ
Reeves the head coach and Lieut.. Com
wander II. ]. Ziegmeyer left this morning
ord had an opportunity of running
through signals ON Franklin Field this
afternoon and getting acquainted with the
grounds. Tomorrow morning the brigade
of midshipnen and the whole Annapolis
contingent will start for Philadelphia. In
no previous game has the interest been so
intense. The feeling here is that the
teams are remarkably evenly matched,
WEST POINT. N. Y, November %
With the exception Of a short signal drill
today on Franklin Field the work OF the
cadet team finished with running through
the plays yesterday morning. A very
confident feeling is evident at the Military
Academy that the cadets will again as
sumo supremacy over the Middies and
the Army adherents here are eager to
place their money on their favorites with
few takers at even money.
A squad of forty players left this morn
ing at 1880 over the West Shore road
and arrived in Philadelphia about 1850
am They were accompanied by Trainer
Jim Temple and his assistants. AS usual
the Army headquarters will be at the
Bellevue Stratford. Coach Smither ex-
poets to get the men on Franklin Field
from $50 till 80 for signal practice. and
later take the men to the vaudeville for
the evening until 9:45 when they must
return to the hotel and be IN bed by 1890
After breakfast tomorrow the coaches
have arranged motor car ride for the
team until Luncheon
The cadets after supper last night held
a very enthusiastic meeting in the cadet
barracks the entire battalion being pres

PENN VICTORIOUS
OVER CORNELL LADS

PHILADELPHIA, November 29.-His
tory repeated itself on Franklin Field
yesterday afternoon. Pennsylvania again
winning the annual foot ball game with
Cornell, the score this year being L. to
4. 1t was Pennsylvania thirteenth VIC
tory in fifteen games played with the
lthacans, the New York state team hay-
ing won one contest and tied another.
The game was finely played, bringing
out many spectacular features, which
We're greatly enjoyed by lie nearly 30, 600
persons who filled the big stands Co.
nell fully expected to win. The team, hna
q good seasons record, the men wa,.
trained to- the hour and. it was expecfed
that Pennsylvania, which had been a liz
tie erratic this year. would not be able
to withstand the aggressive work of the
Comedians. So full Of confidence was
Cornell that, her. supporters turned the
tide of betting in her favor.
But the teams were not on the field five
minutes before 1t was seen that PennsyI-
vania, barring the accidents and f1ukes of
the game, was likely to win. She went at
Cornell hammer and tongs from the lump,
and all during the first half the play was
close to Cornelps goal.

ALL=NAVY TRIUMPHED
OVER ALL-ARMY TEAM

Tho All-Navy team triumphed over the
All-Army team yesterday afte rnoon before
a crowd of several thousand persons at
American League Park, the score being
II to ).
The game was one of the best that has
beer pulled of in this city, from the
standpoint of scientific foot ball. The
NEIL were in the game from the start to
the close, and there was not a moment
that there was not something doing. The
Navy team outclassed the Army team at
all stages of the second half, as the lat
ter did not have the ball in the Navy ter
ritory once in this half Of the game.
Both teams tried the forward pass on
several occasions, but 1t was only pulled
off successfully by Navy on one occa-
sion.
The game was almost void of unneces-
sary rough playing, and on several occa-
sions, when there was a bit Of smuggling,
the officials threatened to, remove the Of
tenders from the game. The star of the
game was Sherer, the big Navy fullback,
who scored both touchdowns for his team.
His line plunging. was terrific, and every
time, he was called for a. run he never
failed to gain his distance. Clarity also
played a fine game. Hamersteadt, at
right tackle, broke up many of the Army
formations by getting though the line
anu tackling the runner for a loss. For
the Army team. DEACON, Dewitt and Nc
Carthy played a good game.
The game opened by Wilkinson for the
Army kicking off to Nays 3O-yard line,
but after making consistent gains through
the Army line the Navy team lost the ball
on forward pass. Nicholson got the
ball on tuke punt and ran to his own
5-yard line On two attempts Mormous
was showed over for the first touchdown.
Mccarthy failed to kick goal. Score:
Army. 3; Navy. 0.
Army again kicked off. and Hestor re-
ceived the ball and returned it 10 yards.
Navy worked the forward pass for gam
Of 30 yards. Clarity ran around ena
for % yards to the Army 15-yard line,
| but the Navy team lost the ball on downs
on the 1O-yard line. Army punted to
Bishop who came back to the Army So
yar2 line. Again the Navy team was held
for downs Army punted and Navy fun
bled on the first lineup and Army got
the ball. On an attempted forward pass
Army lost the ball, and Navy got it on
the Army 10-yard line. Sherer was
| down. Bishop missed goal. Score: Army.
| B; Navy, ).
After the next kickoff there was an
exchange of punts, and Navy was in
possession of the bali when time was
called for the end of the first half.
The second half opened by Navy kick
ing off. After rushing the ball for two
good gains on the first two downs, the
Army team was held and Navy sent
Sherer and Scott through the line for
long gains, until the ball rested on Army S
5O-yard line. Navy lost the ball on downs
on Army's 20-yard line. There was ex-
change of punts and Navy got the ball
near Armys 3O-yard line. The Sailors
tried forward pass, but it failed. Army
punted, but Sherer blocked the kick ana
fell on the ball. On four successive lin.
plunges Sherer carried the ball over fo,.
the second touchdown. Clarity kickeu
goal. Score: Navy, IL; Army, D.
