HARDER WORK FOR
 BOTH YALE ELEVENS Triple Forward Pass Results in a Touchdown for the
 Varsity. OPPONENTS ALSO SCORE Philbin Makes Hundred Yard Run Just at the Close
 of Scrimmage.
OPPONENTS ALSO SCORE

Intricate plays marked the practice of the Yale football elevens at Yale field yesterday afternoon, replacing the simpler work of the past three weeks. oniy short signal practice was held before the scrlmmage, while on days preceding games until yesterday near " an hours work of this kind was given the men.
 The two elevens yesterday were well matched, wlth the first having the slight advantage. The work of the dozen and more coaches who have been here ir the past week has improved the squad immensely, so that now there are few fumbles and the for ward pass is worked with great suc- cess. The plays which the coaches have been seeking to perfect and in which they have failed is the on-slde kick, no member of the squad seeming to do 1t successfully.
 The elevens are filled with punters and this was especially emphasized at the practice yesterday afternoon when Denny, one of the substitute fullbacks sent SO and 65 yard punts time and time again. Berger punted b5 yards several times from close formation in practice, and Philbin did the same distance after fake run around the end. Wheaton was out to the field in his football togs for the first time since the game against Syracuse when he was injured, and he had individual practice in drop kicking. Wheaton did not get into the scrimmage and prob ably will not until next Monday.
 The. .elevens lined up and had a long scrimmage In the first five minutes of play the scrub eleven drove the varsity to the 10 yard line and there triple pass, one of the prettiest of the season, was worked. The ball was passed to Wylie who made 6 forward pass to Bomar. Bomar after making 15 yard advance passed the ball to Gov who made 30 yard run. Tackled by Foster of the second eleven Coy passed the ball to Tad Jones, who ran the remaining distance of the field, knocking over the only tackle in his way and making touchdown,
 After this until the close of the scrimmage the playing was very even. Murphy took Bomars place at right halfback in the varsity and through out the scrimmage played fast game Gov at fullback yesterday again show ed up well and Wylie continued to make good at left halfback. The line of the varsity shows improvement Goebel adopting more aggressive method of play than early in the week. The speed of Burch and Alcott on the ends makes up for anything they may lack in weight. Brides, Yale! star guard, is playing even better thar last year.
 It was just at the close of the scrim mage that the second eleven scored The varsity was threatening the scrul teams goal when Philbin caught { forward pass thrown by Coy to an other member of the first eleven, ant ran through broken field for hun dred yards and a touchdown.
 Burke, the scrub fullback, was hur in the first part of the scrimmage whel he came in contact with Coys head and was put out of the game for tn, afternoon. The lineup:

 Brides at left guard is playing the same fast steady game that has char terized him for the past two years. He is one of the most valuable all around men on the eleven.

A LADDER
A LOVER
AND FLIGHT
Portland Saloon Keeper DeIlberatel,
Captures Married Juliet

BY mounting a ladder from the
Iground to the window of the second
story room where stood his married
sweetheart, cheering him to renewed
efforts, and then helping her ten
derly down to a place beside him,
John Kubic, saloonkeeper, Monday
night set a new record for devotees
of Cupid. The neighborhood in Port
land around 1041 East Tenth street,
North, was strangely stirred by the
romantic event. and Henry NJ. jack
son, the girls father, walked all the
way to the police station to lay the
case before Deputy City Attorney
Tomlinson and get advice.
When 1t come to courtlng and af-
fairs of the heart, Jackson believes
Ia the old fashioned customs. Court
Ing at IL o'clock at night he doesn't
approve of, he told Mr.. Tomlinson.
So it was when Kubic appeared at
the house at that hour last night,
and asked to see Jackson's daughter
the old man told him good night in
stead, and locked the front door. It
didn't daunt Kubic.
After short exchange of compll-
ments with the man he would like to
make his father-in-law, he went
around to the side of the house. over
him was the window of the room
where he knew his sweetheart sat. In
about two minutes he had found a
ladder, placed It against the wall, ami
invited her to trust herself to II and
him. She did.
And then without any more ado
they simply eloped and walked off
together 1t was the last Jackson
saw of his daughter. Her name Is
Mrs. c. d. Panel. All this Jackson
told the city deputy.
Everything was all right until
my daughter met Kubic," said he.
"Then everything went wrong. She
left her husband and he left his wife.
Now she has left me, too. l don't
know what to do about It,"
Deputy Tomlinson told him in
such cases It is pretty hard matter
to bring Cupid within the pale of the
law.
