were tried before the actual line plung-
ing began. The varsity was working
together and crushed through the sec

Once or twice the scrubs were given

fence. They tried .xseyerai forward
passes which the coaches prescribed.
but there was nothing doing. A first
down was impossible. The varsity tried
out only few plays. but these were
found good for three touchdowns in
the short 10 minutes that the scriIn-
mage lasted.

HUNCH THAT WAS ALL RIGHT
Combination Convinced Racing Man
There Must Be Something Do
ing"-Theres Was.

doc" McDonough has returned to
Broadway after an absence of more
than two months, says the New York
Press. He went into retreat on Fri
day, November 13, 1909. The doc"
is a great believer in lunches. When
he gets a bunch good and strong he
plays it to the limit.
The "Doc" never had a stronger
bunch than on that November day.
That it was the thirteenth of the
month and a Friday was a combina-
ton worthy of anyone's notice, but
what was more significant to the Doc
was the fact that in one of the races
that day there were 13 horses entered
and n of the 10 had 10 letters in his
name.
There was nothing for a man to do
under such circumstances but bet the
bank roll and then lend the family
Jewels to Mr.. Simpson or some other
friend. The Doc let every one in on
the good thing and there was a play
on the Is horse that day such as there
never was before.
And the bunch was correct. The
horse ran thirteenth.

Peasant Girls Treasure

Members of the well known Roma
nfan family of Ghika, who are resi-
dent in Vienna, received some inter-
esting' information from Jassy to-day,
says the London Telegraph. A num-
Der of cases filed with objects of
gold and silver, with jewelry and dia-
monds, estimated to be worth several
million kronen, were found in the
course of a search made by the police
in the house of a peasant woman
named Safta Bradinarin, living in the
environs of Jassy.
This woman, who was at once ar
rested, stated that the cases had been
concealed in her house for 26 years.
Her deceased daughter was in the
service of Prince Nikolai Ghika, who
died suddenly after an operation in
Paris. The PEASANTS daughter Maria
took several sealed cases which no
m appeared to want, and conveyed
them to her home. She was afraid to
attempt to dispose Of the valuable OBJ.
jects, which have until now remained
hidden in her mothers house.

MAXIM PROVES HIS SKILL
Inventor Has Only One Arm, RutdHe
Certainly Is an Expert with
the Auto.

Hudson Maxim, the inventor of ex-
p~losives. is an auto fiend and drives
his W machine despite the fact that
ne has only one arm. He drives at
express speed along the crookedest
roads in New Jersey, where his sum
mer home is located, and when he
first began this practice the farmers
n the neighborhood complained to the
authorities of Trenton that Maxim
was a public menace. 1t was pointed
out in the complaint that high speed
ing was bad enough where the driver
had W hands, but where he had but
one there was no knowing what might
happen.
Maxim was summoned to Trenton
to show cause why he should be al
lowed to keep his license. He drove
down to Trenton in his car to meet
the inspector who had been detailed
to examine him. A lot of stakes and
barrels had been placed at angles dan
gerous for tires, and in all manner
OF crooks and turns on the testing
grounds, and Mr.. Maxim, on seeing
these, drove at them before the in
'spector could say a word and thread
ed the maze with both ease and
speed.
well you've stood the test, MI.
Maxim" said the inspector, crossing
over to him.
"Why was that the test?" said the
inventor. II thought it was only a
sort of beginning. Get in with me
and I'll drive up the capitol steps if
you say So"
mo, no." %interposed the inspector.
Keep your license, Mr.. Maxim. You
are as good a driver as if you had
four hands,"
Maxim is fond of declaring that he
has done more toward bringing uni
versal peace than any man alive,
for" he says, "the use of such ter
rible explosives as l have invented
will make more for peace than all the
homilies that can be delivered"
