SATURDAYS FOOTBALL
GAMES SCHEDULED FOR
NUMEROUS GRIDLRONS

have lot of new locks dangling to
their belts tomorrow night.
OF the smaller eastern colleges to
play tomorrow, Dartmouth will be at
Maine, Trinity at Amherst, Williams
at Syracuse, George Washington at
Swarthmore, Saverford at New York
university, Wesleyan at Tufts and
Johns Hopkins at Stevens.
The big game in the west will be
that between Chicago and Illinois. For
the first time since 1897 the Maroons
will play on Illinois field. Great in
terest attaches to the game, and if
the Illinois should again be defeated,
it is likely that the graduate coaching
system of that institution would be
abanoned. The overwhelming defeat
of the Illinois at the hands of the
Maroons last fall created great dissat-
isfaction, and should the foot ball
history of the last two seasons repeat
cal change in coaching will be made
at the Urbana institution.
Another interesting contest in the
west will be the struggle of the Ne
braska Cornhuskers and the Mime
sofa Gophers, to be played tomorrow
at Minneapolis. The Minnesota eleven
has suffered greatly from graduation
and is far from playing up to last
years championship form. Other
western games include Missouri at
Iowa, Alumni at Indiana and Haskell
Indians at Washbun.
Important Southern games schedul-
ed for tomorrow include Sewanee and
Auburn at Birmingham and Georgia
Tech versus Tennessee.

The machine acts with almost hui
man intelligence and not a thing seems
left undone to make it absolutely auto
matte. The girl at the typewriter

up Superintendent Levin and wanted
to know what enw kind of typewriter

Levin, ''is one of the greatest inven-

FIELDS MINsTERLs TONIGHT.


To a standing-room-o nly-and-not-so
very-much-of-that audience, AL G. Field
gave a demonstration at the Grand
Friday night of just how clean and
how new and enjoyable minstrel
performance can be made.
Field has not exactly left entirely
the beaten paths of minstrelsy. He
travels about the same route, but he
has found several new kinds of We
hicles that make the travelling easy,
and those that are not new are so
completely and artistically made owe,
that one hardly knows the difference.
There is nothing stupid and very lit
tie mediocre in the performance. All
the vulgarity and all the near-inde-
cency that formerly were deemed es-
sential to the welfare of any aspiring
minstrel performance have been elimi-
mated, and so the attraction gives an
evening of pure and unalloyed enjoy
ment. The gallery god who formerly
furnished the wild hurrah or the sig
nificant smoker at the off-color Joke.
thrills as well at the rapid scenic
transformations. The fellow with the
girl down in the front" need not be
wiggling in his chair and looking the
other way while the performance
lasts.

Daily News Special.

Odlls ANCW~ oPSNAdl'
Atlanta, Ca, October 1S.-A machine
that promises to revolutionize tele-
graph, and which is to the telegraph
business what the linotype is to the
printing business, is now being used
by the Western Union Telegraph com
pany, and for every one used eight
telegraph operators are displaced
Tor the past few weeks c. A. Whit
ney of New York, an electrical ex-
pert has been in Atlanta installing
three Of these machines in the main
office of the Western Union, and mes
sages from New York are being re-
ceived over it daily.
The machine, known as the Barclay
printing telegraph, is the result of five
years of experimenting upon the part
of its inventor ]. c. Barclay, assistant
general manager and electrical engi-
neer of the Western Union. After a
thorough test of these machines in the
New York and other big offices, the
company decided to buy all the patents
last November A committee of promi-
nent Officials, one of whom was Sup
erintendent j. Levin. of Atlanta, re-
ported fayorably on the machine, and
on this report the company bought the
patents and the exclusive rights to
manufacture it.

1t is so perfect in its work that it
receives and prints on a line of the
distance from Atlanta to Birmingham

and Superintendent Levin says fast
operator working at high pressure, can
only send 400. And all that is neces
sary is girl to insert telegram blanks
on the typewriter attachment and take
out the messages as they are printed.
For sending the messages, a girl is
also used, and she uses a keyboard
just like a typewriter. AS she touches
a key a motor-driven mechanism per
forates a paper tape with the requisite
lumber of dots and dashes, and when
this tape is finished it is placed in a
transmtter, run through automatically
and on the end of the wire hundreds
of miles away the printing mechanism
begins grinding out messages faster
than one girl at the sending end can
perforate the tape In fact, one send
ing machine requires three girls work
ing at the perforating keyboard
The printing mechanism consists Of
a magnetically controlled typewriter
There is an electrical contrivance at
tached to the printing machine capable
of making many combinations, anC
when a certain letter is transmitted by
the perforated tape the magnet con
trolling that letter is put into actor
at the other end of the wire on thu
printing machine and the letter il
rrintedby the typewriter. The BlicB

with some improvements, and there /

When the end of line is reached, tn
girl sending the message, or rather tn
girl who is perforating it on the tape
strikes a character signifying that tn

messages does not do this. AS soor

who Is said to have been n weak swim
mers got out over his depth and cried
loudly for help. his brother Lee went
bravely to succor him, and reached the
former after he had gone down twice.
AS Lee reached his brother the latter
threw his arms wildly about and grab
bling his brother around the neck pulled
him down under the surface OF the
water with him Twice the elder boy
became disentangled from the clutches
of the drowning boy, only to again go
to him an6 try 10 pull him to shore
1t was only after he had become thor
oughlD exhausted, and was barely able
to reach the edge OF the wharf, that he
gave up his heroic efforts 70 save his
brother.
When the boys realized the true situ-
alton. they hurriedly secured a rowboat
and went out to where the boys body
was last seen Then seeing that they
could do nothing. they rowed down the
river to the harbor police station and
sought aid there
The police boat was gotten speedily
under way and within ten minutes after
the body had last gone down II had
been discovered. The officials worked
over the lad for an hour, but all at
ten1pts to resusCitate the boy we're in
vain The body was taken to the
morgue. from where It was removed

The chaplain has had several narrow

Stunning by mail" According 10 his
explanation, when called to account by
the Navy Department. he answered an
advertisement in the personal column
in a New York newspaper wherein a
woman solicited correspondence OF a

view that 1t was the proper thing for
him to investigate such avenues Of

its way to the Dead Letter Office. and
was there sent TO the Navy Depart

ed the chaplain's superlors that as an
added inducement to the woman TO
continue the correspondence he had en-
closed a g bill and the statement that

in appearance and inclinations. The
chaplain is alleged to nave indiscreet-

Engraving and Printing
Men Aided by
COrtelyOu.
New Bureau Building
to Be Demanded
of Congress.

II Secretary Cortelyou has his way at
the next session Of Congress, a measure
viii be passed providing for an entirely
new home for the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing. He Is deeply impressed
wi the need for radical changes in the
facilities now at hand for turning out
the nations currency, postage>and rev.
enue stamps and the numerous bonds
and other engraved papers.
It is the opinion of the Secretary at
this time that il will be found necessary
10 recommend 10 Congress that the old
plant near the Monument be abandoned
and that new one with twice or more
floor space be provided in order TO prop
Crly care for the constantly increasing
work Of the bureau and to provide rea-
sonably for its future growth.
Made Inspection Trip.
This is the result OF trip Of inspec-
tion made Ny Secretary Cortelyou and
his private secretary, II. o. Weaver,
through the big engraving shop. They
were both surprised and, in some in
Stances, almost shocked at the crowded
and congested state of affairs there.
Estimates Being Prepared.
While. Of course, neither the Secretary
say just exactly what recommendations
will be made~to Congress, Director of the
Bureau Thomas J. Sullivan is now hav-
ing prepared a complete set of estimates
and plans outlining what, in his opinion,
should be- done.
these will be presented to Secretary
Cortelyou as soon as completed. who will
further amplify them with the assist
ance of the Supervising sArchitect. It
IS expected. as the Secretary already
thinks. that these plans and estimates
will contemplate a new building of at
least twice the capacity OF the present
one. ard that new site viii be chosen.
Enormous Work Increase.
Since the bureau was built in 1879 The
requirements Of the Government en-
graved work have increased enormously
and out of all proportions to the facili-
ties supplied by Congress for executing
Them, and it is now regarded as high
time to make sweeping changes.
Representative Rodenberg was the
champion of the movement IN the House
Of Representatives last session to secure
additional quarters for the workers in
the bureau It was under the terms OF
a bill passed largely by his interest in
the matter that the preparation Of plans
and estimates for a new building was
authorized.
Interest of Cortelyou.
Secretary Cortelyou's enrolment among
those anxious for a new Bureau is a
great indication Of the speedy materiali-
cation of the project.
When the House Committee on Pub
lie Buildings and Grounds gave a hear
ing on the matter last session, one Of
the speakers declared the bureau work
ers were "herded together like pigs"
