CORNELL HAS HARVARD GAME
Strengthens the Ithacans' Foot Ball
Schedule

NEW YORK, Jan. D.-COrnells foot ball
schedule will be greatly strengthened next
fall by the game with Harvard and II is
cause for eongratulstlon that the meeting
has been arranged. II will come at a time
when both elevens are working up to their
top form and should not only furnish an
interesting struggle, but a good line for
comparison as TO the relative strength Of
the various teams. II will be the first time
that Cornell and Harvard ave met on the
gridiron, although relations between the
two institutions rave been friendly for
years in base ball and rowing. When Cor
nell and Princeton could not agree on a
date last fan it left the schedule of the
Ithacans rather barren. II may be said in
passing that the Harvard team, which went
through last season without a defeat, even
though the schedule was a stiff one, will
find il difficult to repeat, with West Point,
the Carlisle Indians, Cornell, Dartmouth.
Yale and possibly Brown TO face next
season. 1t is cause for some regret that
all negotiations between Harvard and
Princeton are off, for the present at least.

ROUTE OF THE GL1DDEN TOUR
Coarse of Great Auto Ruu Is Now
subject Of GosNIn.

SUBJECT OF OoaNhNs
Despite the fact that the Glidden tour will
not start before July, Frank b, Hover,
chairman OF the America Automobile asso-
citation contest board, reports that he has
obtained a number OF voluntary entries.
and he is confident of a larger entry list
than has ever graced the famous Glidden
tour. Everybody who is interested is try
ing to find out from Mr.. Hover where the
tour is going. bat he is preserving his as
one Of his annual secrets. II will be the
sitxh annual contest OF 1.-The American
Automobile association. and there is a
scramble from various sections Of the coun-
try to secure 1t. In 1904 IL went from New
York 10 st. Louis; I'm 1905 1t went to the
White mountains; in 1906 It went from
Buffalo 20 Breton Woods; in 1907 it went
from Cleveland to New York and in 1905
from Buffalo to Saratoga.
The first announcement which was made
some months ago was to the effect that II
would this year 20 from Chicago TO Denver,
but this, according TO Mr.. Hover, is not
authentic. AT the same time he refuses
to divulge the distance or the route over
which the great caravan, consisting oil
probably more than 100 cars, will pass.
The next meeting of the executive com
mittee of the American Automobile associ-
alton will be held in Chicago, Thursday,
February IL, during the Chicago automo-
bile show. President Hotchiss has
rendered an invitation to 100 directors of the
association to be present.

WANT DENATURED PRIZE FIGHTS
Australia Proposes to DO Away with
InnEhtinE.

NEW YORK, Jan. @.-Australia is about
to pass a law prohibiting %infightins in
prize contests. The Australians idea of
self-defense, as It should be taught and
practiced. is that a man should stand off
at long range and tap lightly and dexter
ously until his assailant desists. It's a
pretty idea and should be tied in pink rib
bons and hung up in the parlor. But it'll
never become popular in America. The
saddest part Of it is that it precludes the
possibility of a fight in kangaroo land Be-
tween Jeffries and johnson. Australia
isn't going to get Jeff under any ping-pong
rules. IF Jeff ever gets into a ring with
Johnson he will want to have things lined
up so that he can tip Johnsou's seconds the
wink when it's time to send for the am
bulance.
jeff prefers cellar rules himself. A
few years ago. when johnson bothered the
retired champion for a match, Jeff called
for 5000. handed it to Harry Corbett to
hold and invited the negro into the cellar
the first man to emerge to get 1t, "Ah
amt no cellar fighter" said Johnson.
Tommy Burns took the American style
OF mitigating into Australia. The Aus
tralians liked it fairly we'll, although they
still stuck to the old English stand-off
manner in their own contests.

TEXAS WAY TO TREAT A FAKER
Outlaw Holds Gun on Foot Racer and
SpOfls Fixed Game.

Clay Clement, the actor, who was in
Omaha during the week in The Servant
in the House" lives on his ranch OF thous-
ands OF acres near Paris, Tex, when he is
at home, and. while born in Illinois, he has
become a real Texan. He believes in
Texas. her ways and people.
Mr.. Clement and A. III. Burnett and DR..
Dorwood OF. Omaha were horn and reared
in the same locality in Illinois and the
other day at a dinner together at the a
son the three old friends fell to telling
stories. Sporting matters came up. Foot
racing was discussed. They all agreed that
it was a pity such a fine sport was marred
by taking.
You won't find any fake foot racing
near Paris. Tex" said Mr.. Clement. I'VE
stamped all that out some wears ago. We
had a young fellow who made 100 yards
in ten seconds and we knew he could make
II. We felt proud, like small towns would,
of our fast man and wanted to set a big
match with some notable racer.
"A fellow came over from Dallas who
agreed to run our man. Well, we gathered
up about all the money there was in the
country around Paris and bet it on our local
man. just before the race a rumor arose
that the race was fixed; the local man had

didn't know what to do and we're much put
to 1t.
'In our littel town was a gentleman re-
garded by some folks as rather rough in
his mode Of living; in fact he was a des-
perado. We told him what we had learned.
He had money up on the match.
'Shucks. that's easy he said. They
won't be no Iayin' down. They'll run on the
square. Trust that to me-
1--WE were perfectly willing TO. but we
! couldn't see how he could fix IL.
Just before the runners took their places
our outlaw friend walked up to the local
man.
My friend he said, you kin make a
hundred in ten, CANT your L have done
it, said the racer. And you are going to
do 1t today, too, amt you? Don't believe
1 can today, don't feel right oh, yes you
kin. You kin make a hundred yards in ten
seconds and this here other Teller CANT,
and you're agoing TO make it. You're
agoing to run as fast or faster today than
you ever run before. You see this?'
Here the outlaw drew from his trousers a
gun half as long as your arm. You see
this? Well, say, when you cross that fin
ish line down there I'll be right on hand,
and il you amt ahead of this here. chap
why, say, you'll never run no more foot
races. seer
He saw. Our man won the race with
several laps to spare. He never had run
so fast In his life, and probably never did
afterward. The 'fixer' got 1t in the neck
that time and the money changed hands
right.
some folks wanted to erect a monument
to that outlaw"
