TIGERS STIR UP CORNELL.
Grief and Anger at Ithaca Because
 Baseball Team Left the Field.

Ithaca. May GA scathing ar raignment of the Princeton baseball management for ordering the Tiger nine off Percy field last Saturday be- cause of wet grounds when 4,Q00 persons had gathered to witness the game and Cornell stood to lose $700, is contained in yesterday morning s Cornell Sun, which represents the undergraduates
 The Sun says: "Princeton's atti- tude was discourteous and unjusti- fled. We cannot refrain from ex- pressing the disapprobation that is felt here universally, by Princeton undergraduates, as well as Cornell men, that Princeton management could be guilty of so surrendering to the spirit of Win at any cost and take no chances. The adoption of championships as ideals and the en- dangering of friendships and sports manship for the sake of numerical victories, which is the obvious way of Interpreting various acts of the Princeton management of late, is highly condemnable and allows an imputation concerning the athletic sportsmanship of Princeton. The greatest stigma to Intercollegiate, athletics is the over emphasis of victory"
 Dutch Meir, Princeton's coach, is said to have declared that Heiniger could not control a wet ball and would not take the chance of defeat. Judge Irvine, president of the ath- letic council, Graduate Manager Manager Dugan, Coach Coogan of the team, and all of the students were very much incensed. Relations are very strained, and it would sur prise no one if Cornell and PriIce- ton ceased engaging in athletics. The Cornell leaders say that the ac- tion of the baseball team is simply a refutation of the attitude of the Princeton athletic leaders in their for the last two years.

BOARD ExPELs PUTNAM MAN.
Charges Sustained Against Dr Dar
 ling and Mare Lady Nelson.

New York. May 6.-W. $. Quen- eer, P. F. Hall, w. M. Hyland ana Ross Rich, all of Watertown, N. f., were expelled from the National Trotting association yesterday after a hearing before the board or reVie" of that organization. The horse' Direct Wood. owned by these four men and P. Hurley and N. Crary ot potsdam, N. r., also was expelled. Charges against Hurley and Crary were dismissed.
 Dr K. N. Darling of Putnam, Conn and the mare Lady Nelson also were expeIled by the board. It was charged that Lady Nelson had been in races in Connecticut and Massa- chusetts under the name Molly U. as a green horse. Charges against John F. Kingsley of Pomfret, Conn., who drove the mare. were dismissed. Kingsley also was exonerated on charge of driving horse owned by II. II. Davenport of Pomfret, which was falsely entered at SturDidge, Mass.
 MT Davenport withdrew the horse after the first race, notifying the as- sociation that he had learned he had been imposed upon. Both Davenport and the horse, Billy Wilkes, were suspended until the $40 won in the race and recording fee of $50 for the change in the horses name IS paid.
 In the case of w. S. Crockett and n Alexandpr of Bluefieids. w. Va. who had raced, innocently they maintained, horse named Dr Zim as Zim on tracks in Virginia and North Carolina. the board decided that the owners should pay back the winnings Of the horse as ''Zim" and advertise him for the first few times he is raced as "Zim, formerly pr Zim."
 Evidence was presented in the ease of IT. I.ejace, a French Cana dian, who had entered his horse, Merriman. under the various names of Hochelaga. Merriman and Boston Globe. in races at Buffalo and Goshen, \. Y.. upon other tracks. that Lejace was not familiar with the trotting rules and did not inten- tionaIly violate them. The board held that the horses time under the name of Merriman at Three Rivers, Canada. of 2:11A. Is bar and that all of his subsequent winnings in slower classes were unlawful and must be returned for redistribution. It suspended horse and owner pend ing compliance with the order.

PAY FOR GRADING
City Has More Applications Than
 IL Can Pay For.

Dr .. II. Brown asked what an.
 peared to be difficult question to
 answer at the meeting of tbe board
 oi puDiic works last night. He
 Manled to know why citizens who Ire
 Wiling to pay for having a street
 sraded cannot get it done.
 reopie who paid assessments for street layouts years ago cannot get the work done, although they have
 oeen after the city fathers year in anu year out since the orders were passed The trouble is due 10 the lact that the aldermen make a prac- tlce or ordering more streets laid out than they appropriate money to work and as consequence at the present flme at a modest estimate it would take not less than half mill iion dollars to finish all the street work on the list. One might say that this is wild statement, but if anybody thinks so let him look it up and see for himself. Whether people like it or not they will soon have to stop demanding public inl- proVements or pay more taxes. Another remedy and probably more practical one would be for the board Of aldermen to refuse to or der any more street layouts except where public necessity and conven- fence demand them. and let street development be carried on by those who own tracts of land and want to get them on the market.
 Nobody wants to pay more taxes and if the aldermen refuse to act favorably on petition for pub lie improvement that will not do, either. The best way for men who have means and want to develop their property is to get permission from the aldermen to make streets, do the work at their own expense and then ask the city to accept them. The late F. B. Rice did some work in this way and for that reason he was in a posiaon to get ahead of competitors who had to wait for their turn in the city government.
 A more equitable system of taxa tion than Waterbury has at the present time would put the city in a position to open more streets, con struct more sidewalks and sewers, lay water mains every place they are needed, render more efficient police and fire protection and do such other public work as many are elamoring for, but. under existing conditions large numbers will have to be pa tient because there is no possible way of helping them. With about . s60 ,OO0 to do about $250,O00 worm of work one need not be over wise to see that few can be accommo- dated in one year.

Working for Him.

About four miles out of Selma, Ala.
| came across a colored man whose
mule team and loaded wagon were
stuck fast in mudhole in the road.
The mules were nodding in sleep, and
the driver lay on the grass by the
roadside with his hat over his face.
"Here-are you the man who runs
this OUTFIT" l asked as l dismounted
from my horse.
''Tze de pusson, sah," he replied, as
he sat up.
How long have you been stuck
here?"
Bout an hour, 1 reckon"
We'll. what are you waiting for?"
Fur some white men to come along,
boss. No use to worry about it. I've
been yere befo' and know jist how it
works. Sit down and see for yourself" +"
Ten minutes later four white men
drove up in buggy. Seeing that the
mules were stuck. they got down, Sc
cured fence rails and went to pry-
ing. and. without the least help from
the driver, finally extricated the team
and sent it on its way. AS it started
off the colored man queried of me:

boss?"
Yes"

After This Who Can Doubt the Power
Of Love?

George had been away on business
for a whole long week, and during
that time he had sent Clara ten let.
ters, six letter-cards and AZ picture
postcards.
Why. then, was there touch Of
coldness in her greeting when ne flew
to her arms on his return?
Dearest" he whispered, what IS
the matter?"
"Oh, George" she said. you didn't
send kiss in your ninth letter."
MY precious" he replied. that
night 1 had steak and onions for din
ner. and you wouldn't have liked a
kiss after onions, would you?"
And, such is the unfathomable pow.
er of love, she was satisfied, and nes-
tied to him.

New Mexico.

Mining happenings in New Mexico
for the month of December were such
as to indicate still greater activity in
the territory during the new year; one
of the most important events being the
acquisition by the Copper Gulf Devel-
opment Company of the Gettysburg
group of the Allesandro Copper Com
pany and the Bentley group of the Leo
pold-Tyrone company. These proper
ties are located in the Burro mountain
seNion OF Grant county, and give the
Copper Gulf company combined
acreage of 1000 acres. Extensive de-
velopment work is planned and new
machinery is to be installed. Work at
the mines and mills of the Comanchc
NJ. 4 S. Co. was suspended during
the month, and the affairs of the com
pany placed temporarily in the hands
OF receiver. II is expected. however.
that the company will shortly be reor-
ganized and work resumed as soon as
financial conditions warrant. Work
was carried forward steadily by the
Burro Mountain Copper Company.
Chemung Copper Company. and Ma
tional Copper Company. during De-
cember, and announcement was made
OF the resumption of operations at the
Confidence mine In the Mogollon sec.
tion, owned by the Treasure Mining
and Reduction Company. and the in
stallation OF an up-to-date cyanide
plant at that mine. A new pipe line
will be installed through the canyon
which is expected to place 1t beyond
danger of floods which have hereto
fore interfered with operations at this
property. A body OF high grade ore
has been recently opened in the Top
mine. also In the Mogollon section.
