big game In Philadelphia Saturday and
saw him make seven different attempts
to boot the pigskin over the cross bar
and succeed only on his last. II was a
beautiful kick. sailing twenty-six yards
straight over the bar.
Dalton played n star gave on the

the required distance and taekiing in
superb style. His six failures at goal
were all pardoned when he Booted the
ball over for the three only and VIM
ming points of the game.
The Navy could not get the pigskin
over with PUSHES because Of the Arrny's
speed and weight, and the Army could
not get the ball over the Nays line
because Of the Middies' grit. determi-
nation and dash. Among the others
lionixed here are Giichrist. a plebe, who
did some star tackling. Hamilton also

HE CAN'T COME BACK.

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Nov. Is

defeat at the hands of owen Moran
In the eleventh round of their fight
here Saturday that IL is not within
his power to come back, and as a
result, one of Americas gamest fight

padded NIT again.
Nelson was pounded as never be-
fore In his career by the shifty Brit
Usher Saturday, and, try as he might
to stop the ran Of body blows d.
rected at him by Moran, he could
not. The Battler's once terrific and
ripping blows counted for naught
when they landed on Moran. while,
on the other hand. the briton's show
er of punches into the ex-waiters
left side and face did the most Sc
we're damage.
The spectacle of the once proud
hero OF many battles going down five
times in one round and taking the
count I'm the eleventh after a vicious
jae to the jaw which sent him back
foremost to the mat, was pathetic to
the thousands who witnessed the
mill.

from the bench that II looked To him

DEER SEASON ENDS

MEMBER 3OTH.

The State law provides that the
close season for deer shall be from
December to September l. The
last legislature made no CT ange In
the general game laws. There waa
an act passed. however. intended TO
apply only to the counties Of Bruins
wick. Sussex aud Greensvilie. making
some changes as to deer tn those
countiSA but owing to inconsistencies
in the title and the act. its consti-
tutionality is very questionable.
In reprinting the game laws Of this
State some time ago. the special act
intended to apply only to the coun-

substituted for the general law. which
has caused some confusion. The cor

RIO DE JANEIRo. Nov. 2s.-The
situation in the Brazilian navy has
not improved since the surrender of
the mutineers and the return OF the
seized ships to the government. II is
expected that it Will he long time,
indeed, before conditions have resum-

The government Is finding great diff
fieultf In securing competent officers
TO command the ships. The officers
declare that the governments surren-

chance Of enforcing discipline. and for
that reason they do not want to as

where.
After their surrender the mutinous
sailors were all placed under arrest
for few hours, and were then re-
leased, In accordance with the terms

journalistic Enterprise Works While
Police of French Capital Con-
tent Themselves with
Theories

PARIS, March 5.-The hostility of
the Paris police to the newspapers
which assist them in hunting up per-
petrators of sensational and mysteri-
Gus crimes is ineligible enough from
one point of view. When the police
would gladly have placed the Syve-
ton and Steinheil cases on the list of
closed Incidents these enterprising
publications would have none of 1t
and leagued together to continue their
researches
In the Steinheil case it was solely
on account of the persistence in volun-
teer detective work by the Matin that
madame was finally brought face to
face with a judge and jury.
1t was the same with the murder
of Nine Gouin. The police had vir-
tually confessed to being beaten in the
pursuit of the criminal, but the news
papers kept pegging away at the mys-
terry, and now two soldiers are in GUS
tody. They are said to have confessed
the crime. Nine. Gouin, a middle-aged
woman, the widow of a director of the
Bank of France, was done to death in
the most brutal manner in train be-
tween Fontainebleau and Paris,
tourney of thirty miles. The body was
found beside the track minus a leg
and an arm-which have never been
found. The car door was half wrenched
off, the compartment was spattered
with blood, and blod was found on
the footboard.
When last seen Nine. Gouin was
wearing four valuable rings, which
were missing from the mutilated fin
gers. Her handbag, cut clean through,
was picked up nearly half a mile from
the body in the direction in which the
train was going.
This was conclusive against the the
