CARNEaIE'S BIRTHDAY.
Many Congratulations on Seventeen
Anniversary.

Anniversary.
NEW YORK, November 27.-Hale- and
hearty. in spite of bis seventy years. An
drew Carnegie. standing beside a table
piled with messages Of congratu,ation on
his birthday, gave a rule for happiness.
The rule was this:
ITO obey the Judge within and make
others happy.
IF the judge within gives you a clean
verdict we have no other Judge to fear
here or hereafter.
But after satisfying that judge. above
all else the way to be happy is to make
others happy"
Can a man accomplish as much at sew
enty as at forty?' he was asked
More. bless you, more" replied Mr.. Car
negie. "All things being equal, mans
efficiency is increased at seventy. He Is
equipped with greater experience. The
world is growing better and it follows that
the men In 1t grow better as they grow
older
II have here on my wall two rules which
the young should bear in mind"
Mr.. Carnegie pointed to opposite sides
of the study. where were emblazoned in
letters of gilt:
Thine own reproach alone do fear"
"All is well since all grows BETTER
Mr.. Carnegie was asked: When Is
mans usefulness ripest?
when he has attained to the highest
degree of perfection of which he Is ca
pable." was the reply. This means that
il he conserves his physical and mental
powers he will be ripest when he has at
tanned long life. At seventy I am con-
vinced that mans usefulness increases
with age. Kindness between man and
man is showing a broadening tendency.
1t undoubtedly is not given to man to e1-
plain why sickness and poverty and sin
are necessary in His order Of things. 1t
has not been explained to us why the
law of evolution obtains. providing that
the higher forms of life live upon the
lower And since 1t is not given to us to
understand, 1t is better that we bow our
heads in recognition of the mandate. Thy
will be DONE

CAN'T ACCOMMODATE
FOOT BALL CROWDS

There is not a seat to be had at any
price for either the Cornell-Penn game
tomorrow or the Army and Navy game
Saturday in Philadelphia. The seating
capacity Of Franklin Fled is $4,000 This
represents total of about $50, 900 for the
Thanksgiving day game and about 500 OOU
for the Army and Navy contest. For the
latter there is no price either for the
Army or the Navy seats. but the more
than 5000 seats allotted to the University
of Pennsylvania are always sold. and the
proceeds go to the soldiers and sailors
fund tor. the maintenance of widows and
orphans. They bring the highest price of
any tickets sold du,ing the foot ball sea-
son. and are always SO eagerly sought
that they would command great premiums
If excessive care we're not taken to pre-
vent them falling INTO the hands of specu-
lators.
The enormous attendance at foot ball
this year has been a surprise even to the
experiences. There was upward of $4,000
persons at the Harvard-Yale game, which
netted $GS.eO0:' there were $1,000 at the
faie-Princeton game, which netted S86-
900. More than 10000 persons saw the
indians play Harvard, which brought
$4,000 in at the gate. Almost as MANY
nearly as much. while the Redskins and
Pennsylvania drew 5000 and returned
$4,000; 1900 persons saw Chicago and
the Indians play. and 1900 spectators
witnessed the Minnesota-Indian game,
while Syracuse ind the Redskins drew
II O0O in Buffalo.
The Penn Michigan game was attended
by 1900 persons. with a net return of
0O0. whiie Penn drew close to 20 OCO
In both the Lafayette and State College
games. In the Minnesota and Chicago
game there were nearly 10000 present.
These were the main games and the prin-
cipal money makers. but the crowds that
saw all, the minor games were unusually
large. and show hat the attendance at
all the more, important contests of the
season is only limited by the capacity OF
the fields where the game is played.
