RULES BAR QUARTER BACK.
Snapper Back VIII Take the Posi-
ton of the Former.

Princeton, y. J., June 1s.-That the dan
gers Of football have been reduced to a
parity with baseball, hockey, track ath-
letics, and lacrosse, and that we shall
probably have fewer accidents next fall
is the opinion Of ParRe Davis. IS. Prince
tons representative on the rules COM
mittee He says that the effect OF the
removal of the restriction upon the quar-
ter back run means the disappearance of
the quarterback position. since under the
new rule any back man run through the
line at any point. and may do so by
receiving the ball directly from the snap
per back. The quarter back viii be found
next fall in the line or group Of other
backs
With the passing of the necessity of the
quarter back receiving the ball from the
snapperback, also will pass the present
method of swapping the ball. The new
rules viii define swapping the ball as
putting the bail in play with one con-
tinuous motion of the hand~or foot" I'm
der this phrasing The snapper back may
pass the ball with his arm AT his side,
being upon one knee.
The rapidlty and flexibility of play
gained by the removal of these two re-
strictions will make a beautifully fast.
open, and running game" in Mr.. Davis
opinion.

Yale spectators thought of the defeat at
the hands of Princeton. in New York
yesterday the Yale baseball nine was
shut out by Cornell by to o.
Cornell made all the runs in one in
ming, when Freeman went up in the air
and allowed four hits. Badger added TO
the trouble with an error in eentes field.
but even though Freeman was pitching a
poor game in the inning, no attempt was
made TO warm up another pitcher to
take his place and he could probably
have been batted all over the lot before a
substitute was sent in. Yale is saving
Tom Morse for Tuesdays game with
Harvard.
Murphy is still ineligible because of
being on probation, and Coy was not in

catch in the sixth was phenomenal, and

Holds Same View on Fight.
q have never changed my view OF
the fight between Jefries and John
son." Corbett said. Lack of conf
dence is what defeated Jim; nothing
else None of his trainers was closer
to him than I. The question that was
constantly before his mind was Can
come back He didn't believe that
he could, though he was never in bet
ter condition physically in his life, de-
spite the stories told to the contrary
Don't let anybody cause YOU to believe
that dope story. There is nothing to
il. Another circumstance that Jim
took seriously to heart was his break
with Billy Delaney, and when the lat
ter went over to the Johnson camp
plainly indicated that he felt that he
had lost a good friend and wise coun-
Sellor. There is no doubt that he did,
yet it should not have preyed on his
mind the way it did. Jim Jeffries was
in a trance fully two weeks before the
fight. The day of the battle l induced
him to play a game of hearts with my
self and a few of the boys in the
training camp. When / tell you that
Jim, a clever card player, made at
least a dozen mistakes in a single
game you will better appreciate the
point l am seeking to make with ref
erence to his mental state. I repeated

Taliaferro was on her first starring
venture, and until recently it had APP
parentIy been one of the happiest of
theatrical marital alliances. Last fall
Miss Taliaferro announced that be-
cause of the length of ner name and
its frequent mispronunciation by her
admirers, she would be known as
Nell" but the scheme proved unsuc-
cessful from the box office standpoint,
and it was abandoned. Her last play,
"Springtime, did not prove to be a
success.
This season she made a short APP

ly suggested to Jim that it was only
ratural that one should worry on the
eve of such ali important battle, but
he scoffed at the idea that he should
be so affected.
VerEinE ON Nervous Collapse.
Il knew differently, and l used to
try to get him to take long walks with
me, but it was rarely that he would
acquiesce. l was at his side when he
entered the ring. The forced smile
when he was introduced to the vast
audience, to my mind, spelled defeat,
although l had not abandoned hope
that he would regain his nerve after
couple of rounds. He was as limp as
a half-drowned man. Jim had always
been the aggTessor in his previous bat
ties. But in the very first round with
Johnson he began clinching as though
he was fighting reluctantly. Fact is,
Jim was verging on nervous col
lapse 1t was no credit to Johnson to
get the decision over him at that time.
Any ordinary heavyweight fighter
could have accomplished the same
thing with comparative ease. Through
out his training season Jeffries wor-
ried more about what the public might
think of him in the event he lost to
negro than he thought about himself"

Chicago, Nov. 25.-That Mabel Talia-
ferro, the actress, has become a resi-
dent Of Chicago, while her husband
still lives in New York, was admitted
by the actress last night In the next
breath Miss Taliaferro declared that
she has not separated from Fred
Thompson, the theatrical magnate, but
that he would be here in Chicago next
week.
The young actress Is studying music,
she declared, and likes the city so well
that she intends to keep a permanent
residence at 3749 Pine Grove avenue,
where she now is.
Miss Taliaferro came to Chicago
Clara Laughlin, the magazine writer,
and while here has been furnishing the
apartment, evidently for a protracted
stay.
Reported Visits by Thompson.
1t was said that Mr.. Thompson has
paid several flying visits to the apart
ment during the last month. A mys-
FERROUS air surrounds the newly taken
apartment, and w. Laughlin, brother
of the authoress, declared that Miss
Taliaferro had not thought of taking
an apartment in Chicago, and that her
visit was but a brief one.
Mrs. Thompson and my sister are
old friends" said Mr.. Laughlin, "and
do not see that it should be consid
cred strange that Mrs. Thompson is
visiting here. l have heard of no es
arrangement between Mr.. and Mrs.
Thompson, and have always consid
cred them very happy"
In Flat for Six Weeks.
The janitor of the apartments at
3749 Pine Grove avenue said that Mrs.
Thompson had moved in six weeks
ago, and that he had seen a man,
whom he understood was Mr.. Thomp-
son, visit the fat several times during
that period. The name on the letter
box of the fiat is Mrs. F. w. Thomp-
son.
Mr.. Laughlin said he believed that If
there were any grounds for the rumOr,
Miss Taliaferro would certainly not
remain silent
Miss Taliaferro was starred for the
first time by Frederic Thompson in
Polly of the Circus" and her rise to
fame in the theatrical world was swift
and brilliant Thompson, after build
ing one the greatest amusement parks
