Thanks to tn libraliJy iv wan iv tn ladin banks iv Pain Beach, Floridy. l was able to buy up tn yield iv nineteen hundherd an eight Ye have probably noticed that there was a famine among tn school children in America owin' to me purchases. Let it be q consolation to tn little vans to know that they have paved tn way to tn frozen north with their sacrifices.
 With this priceless threasure in me possession I was able to break through tn silence iv Wallo Wallo. It created a gr-reat pollytickal scandal in tn frozen north. A pathriotic pote has wrote a pome about it beginnin'.
 Just fir a gum dhrop he sold us, Just fr a gum dhrop to wear in his hair But what cared I? Inflamed with scientific zeal to get to tn pole ahead iv me old boss.

Dye think" asked Mir Hennessy,
 that both these lads has discovered the north pole?"
 Faith. don't know" said MT.
 Dooley "Ayether they have discov- cred it or they've invinted it. It don't make much diffrence which. I ain't an Arctic explorer. All the polar observations I have iver took has been took at pint about a foot an a half firm a base-burnin' stove on a win ter's night. But I've had me theories an I'm glad to see thim verified. Wan iv thim was that tn north pole was in northerly direction. Another was that if iver discovered careful ob- sarver wud find ice in tn neighbor- hood. Both contributions to science has been established. Tn scientific wurruld is no longer in doubt. Tn north pole is sartainly in the north It is not so far north to go to as thought. but it is farther to come away firm. Ye go up in tn afthernoon on tn publick sledge that meets tn two-thirty at Uppenavik an ye come back in from two to five years. As fr tn ice, it was not niciss'ry to bring back specimens. Both explorers agree that they noted distant thraces iv this precyous min'ral indicatin' that there are valyable deposits near by. Why, thin. ask me what good does Arctic exploration do whin these here two gobs iv knowledge have been added to tn wurruld's store iv information. We now know all there is to be known about tn north pole.
 "Who do I think gets tn honor iv bein' first? Faith, I'm not goin' to decide. As Dock Cook says tn honor is great enough fir both an there's little enough in it. as it is. If tn Dock wasn't tn first there he was tn first to say he was, an I ain't sure that It don't take more courage to be tn first to say that ye wint there thin it does to be tn first to go there. I believe thim both I don't see amy reason fr not believin' thim. It's aiser to believe thim thin not. I eX- tind me hand to both iv thim. I say: I congratulate ye with all me heart. No, no: don't show me amy proofs. If ye've got to prove it, it ain't SO But if ye'd come to me years ago I wud've told ye all about it an ye might we been at wurruk all this time at some useful occypation.'
 How did they get up there. says ye? Tn doctor took what is known as tn gum dhrop route. I discovered says he, years agg that tn way to win me way to tn north pole was be means iv a judicyous distribution iv gum dhrops. This here delicious but sticky edyble is priced beyond amy thing in thim grim northern climes as an ornymint. Tn wealth iv an or his station in life is esty- mated be tn number iv gum dhrOps he has.

Baltimore Country School Drubs
Locals in Good Game.


BALTIMORE. Md, October 16-The
Baltimore Country School gave the
Western High School of Washington a
drubbing on the Country School grounds
this afternoon to the tune of II to 5.
The local boys went after the visitors
with a vengeance. and. though they
tried hard to score, were held down by
the Capital city lads. whose defense
work was surprising. About the middle
Of the first half the ball was cornered
by the Country School, Ober. for the

Russell made a futile attempt to score
the goal point. The play which carried
the victory in favor Of the locals was
corker Ober caught the ball on an
onside kick, and with a thrilling run of
20 yards made the touchdown.
Five minutes later the Country School
made another touchdown, this time
Coleman the star, carrying the ball
over the line. The Washingtonians
fumbled their play. and the ball was
quickly captured by Coleman, who made
sensational 3O-yard run. with the

Russell redeemed himself in the try
for the goal, making the last point IoT

The Western High School eleven lost

WINTER RACING AT
THE OAKLAND TRACK

NEW YORK. October 16.-Thomas H.
Williams, president of the Pacific Coast
Jockey Club and boss of racing on the
Pacific coast, arrived here recently. The
first thing Mr.. Williams did was to con-
firm the report sent out from San Fran
cisco to the effect that whether the rae
ing folk won or lost their legal fight
against the anti-racing measure passed by
the legislature at Sacramento last winter
there would be winter racing at Oakland,
beginning October 20.
The desire to have California known as
state in which personal liberty obtains
is not the only reason Mr. Williams
countrymen are roofing for him in his
fight and aiding him as much as they
can There is a material side to the ques-
ton. Racing has for twenty-five years
brought thousands of money-spending
strangers to San Francisco and Los An
geIes, and these spenders have helped to
keep body and soul together. The mer-
chants and citizens of San Francisco,
Oakland, Berkeley, Sacramento, Los An
geles and San Diego regard the prospects
of a winter without racing at Oakland
and Los Angeles pretty much the same
as the hotel folk and citizens Of Saratoga
would regard the outlook for quiet Au-
gust at the springs.
Mr. Williams said that whether he lost
$4,000 or 100000 or $4,000 this winter
he would keep the Oakland track gates
omen as of yore. If the appellate court
fails to declare the new law unconstitu-
tional the Oakland folk will try to make
out with some such scheme OF betting as
employed in New York. The new Cal
ifornia law is said to have been modelled
on the lines of the Hart and Agnew meas
ure and the courts of New York state
nave held that mere betting is not illegal
even under the Hart and Agnew law.

At LAST
GETS GOING RIGHT
Defeats SeWanee and Dis
plays Best Form of
the Season.

PRINCETON, N. J., October 16.-Using
the strongest lineup for the first time
this season Princeton won from the Uni
versity of the South today by the score
of 90 to o, after a hard-fought contest.
A high wind made it difficult to judge
punts. and the oval often bounded be-
hind Princetons quarterbacks toward the
Princeton goal line. Sewanee twice re-
covered the ball in dangerous territory.
Princeton showed better form On the
whole than at any time this season. Hart,
the Princeton fullback, was a factor In
the line plunging, and it was his steady
legendary defense chiefly which prevent
ed Sewanees speedy backs from gaining
with any regularity. Princelon's linemen
showed great impr ovement on the dsfense,
but they still manifested looseness on the
offenss.
Faulkenberry of Sewanee was a tower
Of strength in breaking Interference and
blocking forward passes. Finally. the
Sewanee right end, also played good
game on the defense. Princeton scored
which gave her the ball on Sewanee' $
35-yard line. Read, Hart and Dawson
carried the ball TO the goal on consecutive
plays, Read making tine touchdown. As
the result Of a diagonal punt across the
field the visitors were forced to try kick
from their own 1O-yard line, where Julian.
a SeWanee center, passed nigh over
Noises head. Noise was tackled by
WEIGH behind the goal line, scoring a
safety for Princeton.
In the second half the men from the
south fought hard, but were forced back
gradually. A 65-yard run by Read OF
Princeton for a touchdown was feature.
The lineup:

ond play of the game, while in the sec
ond half blocked kick gave the home
team 2 points on a safety Brown
single touchdown was indirectly the re-
suit of a fumbled punt by Hutchinson.
There was good deal of the spec
tacular in the first touchdown. Hutch
inson dropped the ball on punt at mid
field. where Brown recovered it. In an
effort to follow up this advantage Mckay
kicked again the kick being blocked.
Braddock, catching the ball on the run,
sprinted As yards for the first touch
down.
Pennsylvania second touchdown came
before five minutes more of play. Hutch
inson returned McKay's kickoff in bril-
liant fashion for 5O-yard run. An on
side kick gave the ball to Brown, but
McKay's punt against the wind went
out of bounds on his own 37-yard line.
From here Pennsylvania started an as
sault on Browns line. In six plays
Hutchinson crossed the line. The goal
was not kicked.
Browns turn came about ten minutes
later. Hutchinson fumbled a punt and
the Brown captain fell on the ball on
Pennsylvania 27-yard line. Using Nc
Kay and High in plunges, Brown slowly
approached Pennsylvania goal line. and
in twelve plays put the ball over the line.
Mckay missed the goal.
The safety, which was the only score
in the second half. came after ten min
utes of play. Forced to kick from his
5-yard line. Mokay's punt was blocked
by Cozens, and Sprackling, who recov-
cred the ball for Brown, was downed by
