pIrrssuRe,s NEWEST MAN.
Miller, Spectacular Performer at Sec
 ond Bag for the World Champions.

A tall. hawboned youpng man. the personification of awkwardness. 23 years of age. the personal makeup of whom conceals a world of baseball knowledge. together with liberal sprinkling of shyness and not a grain second baseman of the Pittsburg Ma tionals. says an exchange He is the youngest man in point of baseball ser vice on the team. Miller. unlike many young men who have risen to a place of prominence in baseball, is of most retiring diposition. It is said he is a second edition of Hans Wagner His remarkable work for the Pirates has made him one of the most talked of youngsters in the big leagues. Like Wagner. he would rather hike off on a fishing or hunting trip than be the center of attraction when the baseball fans congregate in hotel corridors.
 Miller was born in New York on September g. 1886. The popular i'm pression has been that he is a country boy. who up to recent years knew nothing of the noise and hustle of a big city. having been raised in rural surroundings and knowing nothing else all his life. This is partially true, for at ar early age he einigrated from the metropolis to Kearney, N. J.
 When he was 15, or in 1901. he first played on regular team. Of course he had every small boys experience on the kid teams, but in 1901 he joined the Park Ways of Kearny and played with them for several years. He seemed to be natural player and pro- gressed so rapidly that when the Att lantic outlaw league was organized in the spring of 1907 he was given a berth on the Easton. Pa. team. He cut all kinds of spectacular capers there and Barney Dreyfuss of Pittsburg got wind of his work. He reported to the Pirates early last season. One alter noon a tall. thin fellow walked deject- edly on the ball field during the Pi- rates practice. Awkwardly he took up position at second base. He looked white around the gills and put little life in his work. But the few minutes he remained on view and after his disappearance it became known that the apparition was Miller. sec ond baseman from Easton, Pa
 Then Mir. Miller dropped out of the whirl of Pittsburg life Later it be- came known that he had just come from a hospital. where he had gone through a siege of fever. this account ing for his poor appearance. Follow ing this it was learned that Miller had been sent to the McKeesport team of

 the Ohio and Pennsylvania league. As the baseball season progressed news of the wonderful stunts of young fellow named Miller began to come from Mc- Keesport Fans-who had seen him work reported he was the wonder of the year. Finally it was reported that Pittsburg had drafted him and that the Cleveland team would also like to get the youngster. Then the fans be- gan to sit up and take notice. May be he was some good after all
 The case went before the national commission and that body awarded Miller to the Pirates. He went south with the team last spring and from the start his work bordered on the sem sational. Hcw he beat Abby. a sea- soned veteran. out of his pob at second base; how he has fielded and batted his way into the hearts of fandom; how he has fitted himself into the pittsturg inficid machine So perfectly that not once this year have the fol- lowers of the game regretted his pos session of the keystone bag; all this is lxnoWn to PfttsbllrRerS

1 Ter. the cratic Pennsylvania captain, who played rank ball until last Satur- day against the Indians.
 Dartmouth Leads in Backfield.
 Tn the backfield things should be in- teresting for both Dartmouth and Princeton. Dartmouth. with Marks,a In- fersol and Ryan, is stronger than Hart, Reed and Garrett, or Cunning ham. Hart of Princeton is a terror, but he is no Marks, and it is an inter- esting question if there is another full back playing today who can rip up the line like this Dartmouth whirlwind In- gersoll is excellent as far as he goes, but it is a matter of extremedoubht if he can play a full game Injuries have kept him back all season. Ryan is strong and capable and is an excel lent dodger. Read of Princeton is a slippery, halfback. but the rest of the Tiger halves are just ordinary players. But there are so many of these fel- lows with ordinary ability compared with Dartmoutl's reserves of an interi- or grade that things look blue for the latter in case of injuries
 Dartmouth can't stand any injuries among the forwards or backs and this is where Princeton has an advantage. Elcock, Johnson and Dingle are not much good as substitute linemen. The changes are more likely to come in the backfield. and here Princeton has a large supply of men, who as bunch are superior to the green. Garrett Cunningham. Woodle. Dawson, Sarks and Bard all rank above such Dart mouth substitutes as Dudley. Drum mond, Steward, Lovejoy, Greenwood and Smith.

EIGHT COACHES WATCH YALE.
Varsity Scores Four Times on Scrubs Savage Keeps Up Strong Line Plungins.

New Haven. Nov. Flour touch- downs were made by the Yale varsity football team today in it's scrimmage with the scrub team. The first two were made in secret practice and the second two followed line plays after the gates were opened. The latter two were made by Savage, the substitute fuIlback: Francis and Daly were un- able to make gains against the scrubs, but Savage tore the line at will. Phil bin, Murphy, Cooney, Andrus and Coy were not in the lineup.
 The backs were given an extended bunting practice and drop kicking. Greenough. who played in place of An drus, turned an ankle, and Johnson. the substitute quarterback, injared his nose and will be unable to play in the Brown game Saturday. Howe at quar- terback ran the varsity in excellent shape and will be put in at the start of the game Saturday. Among the coaches on the field were Phil Smith, Carl Flanders, Batchelder, Paul Weed erf Heffel1nser. Roraback, Jones and Wheaton.

LANeFoRo's DEFIANCE.
Says Johnson's Afraid and Offers Him
 Money and His Own Terms for Fight.

Regardless of the proposed Jeffries- Johnson fight, Sam Langford of Bos- ton, very dangerous person with his fists, sends work to the New York Sun that he is ready to meet Johnson in the ring under any conditions anywhere and at any time between now and next spring. Langford makes this statement:
 Johnson can have s1O0O in cash from me the moment he steps into the ring. I will fight him G.. 10. 25. 45 or 100 rounds, for $5.000 side winner take the entire purse or 75 per cent. | will accept any reasonable offer and will win. I know Johnson like a book and I don't mind saying that he is afraid to meet me. But I am putting it up to him squarely just the same. More than three years ago, when I was 9 welterweight, I met Johnson at Chelsea, Mass. In the second round he was knocked down for the count and was really out, but was saved by mistake of the timekeeper. He weighed 40 pounds more than l did on that occasion and was no better than he is today. I have tried to get d match ever since with no success. had him sewed up to meet at the Ma tional Sporting club of London last May, but he deliberately ran out, even though he signed articles of agree ment
 Johnson is overrated. He's never whipped anybody I'll venture to say that I could have stopped Burns and Ketchel in half the time it took Johnson. You can't drag Burns, Ketchel or Kaufman into the ring with me now under any circum- stances. Papke has absolutely re- fused to meet me and gives as a req son that I am a negro.
 Johnson says he can get into his best shape in six weeks. He can make big money by whipping me and will also prove that he has a chance to defeat Jeffries. If he is on the lev el. as he says he is, let him agree to fight me some time within the next two months just to show people that he is a real champion. I have no hard feelings toward Johnson. but I'll say frankly that in my opinion he can be licked and that I can lick him."
 Langford weighs ITO pounds and is a formidable pugilist. He has beaten all corners when fully extended and has also scared others in such a way that he seems unable to induce any of the topnotchers to meet him. If Johnson can whip Langford it will be the means of further increasing in- -terest in the big go with Jeffries. It is a prevalent opinion that Langford is entitled to consideration.

Norwich A. F. Team vs. Westerly.

The Norwich association football club has selected a team for the game here Saturday that is expected to give the Lorraines of Westerly hard rub even if the latter are regarded one of the fast est teams in this vicinity. Last season the Westerly men defeated Norwich without much trouble, but the home eleven is supposed to be stronger this season, so that the Lorraines will have to show their best to win out. It will be the second game of the local sea- son on the Sachem park grounds and the management is looking for a big turnout.
 The following is the Norwich team which Manager Reid Mcintyre will present: Goal. H. Finlayson; backs. w. Ferguson and V. Corin; halfbacks, J. Corners N. Reid, T. Parsons: forwards. F. Manville w Brown, A. Finlayson A. Manville, W.White; reserve, R. Pill ing

and otherwise throwing the. varsity into unfavorable shape.
 A punt from nidfield, followed by a forward pass which went to the ten yard line, was followed by two rushes and the crossing of the line by Tryon of the second team. The varsity came back, however, and made four touch downs. It was evident that the team was weak in repelling trick plays, as shown when the second team went through formations peculiar to the Cornell style.
 The field was slippery today from yesterdays rain and was covered with hay tonight to take out the moisture and keep the turf in shape for Satur- days game with Cornell.

Princeton, N.

The varsity made seven touch downs in fairly short order, though many of the regulars were replaced by substitutes early in the game The field was muddy and there was frequent fumbling.. After the usual practice game the second team was given the ball three times on the ten yard line, but failed to score.
 The Princeton freshmen held their last practice today before their final game of the season with the Yale freshmen at New Haven on Saturday. Captain Pendleton and Heath were conspicuous in the ground gaining.
