POPULARITY Of
FOOTBALL GAME
Interest in the Game Is Shown
BysDemand for Tickets for
Big Affairs

Nek York. Nov. 19.-That the pop
ularity Of football is increasing in all
parts Of the country Is proved by the
great demand that prevails for tickets
admitting to all, important intercol-
legiate gridiron contests. Despite the
great throngs that have attended the
principal games of the past few sea-
sons In both the east and the west,
the limit Of enthusiasm has not yet
been reached. Time and again 1t has
been shown that the attendance at the
big football games Of the fall ID only
limited by the capacity of the stands
surrounding the fields Of play. The
announcement that more than $4,000
applications for seats for the COM
ing Yale-Harvard game at New Haven
on November 81 are on file is but
one case IN point. OF this number
Of would-be spectators more than 50
per cent are certain 20 be disappoint-
ed In their desire to witness the game.

modated ct Yale Held on that date.

STAKE ALL ON
THE Penn GAME
Cornell Figures Thangsgiving
Day Game Will Make or
Break

Ithaca, N. Y, Nov. 19.-It developed
yesterday that the Cornell football
coaches, now training to stake all on
the final game with Pennsylvania
Thanksgiving day, deliberately order
ed Quarterback Gardner in the Chi
cago game to withhold all the new
plays the team has been taught for
the past two weeks and to use only
the standard football methods which
were employed against the minor
teams.
One forward pass, fake cross
buck, and number Of line and end
plays and Walder's punting composed
the complete repertoire of Cornells
playing at Chicago, but for the past
two weeks dozens. of new plays have
been perfected and are waiting for the
contest against the Quakers. This
explains the rather puzzling methods
employed by Cornell against CHICAGO.
Cornell regards the Penn game =
the make or break" contest for the
team. and every card will be PLAYED
at Franklin field.
Coach Dan Reed was the only a.
rector on the field last night. Coaches

adelphia, where the Pennsylvania
Cornell and the Army-Navy games
are to be played on November 26 and
%, respectively, indicate similar sit
uation.- Franklin field, crowded to its
utmost limits will not seat more than
$4,000 spectators, and there are ap-
parently far more than this number
of persons who would be very much
pleased II they were assured of seats
at one or both of these games.
It is not alone the so-called big
games Of the year that are drawing
out thousands of spectators each Sat
urday. The average attendance at
the games in the Harvard stadium to
date has been larger than in any pre-
vtous year since the immense cement
amphitheatre was completed. The
Army-Yale game at West Point tested
the capacity Of the cadets football
field to the limit, and the same is
true at number of the games played
on the s0-called minor college grid
irons.
But the east has no monopoly on
the popularity Of the game. Similar
conditions prevail throughout the mid
die west and Pacific coast. The at
tendance Is not as large as at some
OF the big eastern games, but this is
due to the smaller capacity Of the
stands In use.- Even the Pacific coast,
handicapped 40 1t is by the fact that
the leading universities of that Sec
ton are playing Rugby football in
stead Of the intercollegiate game, re-
ports an craftsmanship demand for

STAMP TAKEN FROM LOVE LETTER WILL
FURNISH TROSSEAU FOR GRANDDAUGHTER

one of the envelopes was an old ''pro-
visional stamp. She realized that it
was valuable, and it was brought to
this city by friend and placed on
sale yesterday, and, to the surprise OF
everyone. a collector from Cleveland
paid $1,000 for it.
Very few of the provisional stamps
were issued, and this Particular stamp
is different from any others that have
come to light. II was issued by the
Postmaster of Alexandria in 1917 and
is printed in black ink on light blue pa
per. All the other stamps of the kind
that are known to be cxtant are print
ed in black on buff paper. The stamp
is circular in shape and the size OF a
half dollar In the center is the word
Paid with a go underneath. This
is encircled with the words Post Of
flee, Alexandria" and around the
whole is a circle Of stars.

FOUGHT IN A FOG.
4 Duei In Which Neither Principal
Could See the Other.

Io1td Gee Ine OtneF.
The most laughable duel er"fought''
in France was that which took place
in November. 1878, at Plessis- Piauet
between Messrs. Gambetta and De
Fourtou.
Some heated words had passed be-
tween the two distinguished gentlemen
in the chamber Of deputies, for which,
according to their ideas Of honor, moth
ing could atone except a duel. The
men met therefore on the field at
tended by their seconds and the sur
geons.
A look over the field was enough to
convince any one present that there
would be no occasion for the doctors
services. thick November fog hung
over the scene-so thick. indeed, that
one could hardly see his hand before
his face. The arrangements for the
duel required that it should be fought
at thirty five PAGES.
Nor was the fog the only circum
stance that tended to place the com
batants out Of sight of each other. On
the way to the field NJ. de Fourtou is
reported to have said:
IN. Gambetta has but one eye. and
I am shortsighted, so the game will
be about evon."
1t was, of course, rendered still more
'even" by the fog. Neither man could
see the other, and the sole danger was
to the seconds and the doctors.
Almost miraculously the two bullets
that were exchanged missed the per
sons in attendance. Everybody's hon
or was satisfied and the whole party
went home Gambetta said that the
affair was as near to being skir1nisi
in the dark as anything he ever saw
