YALE NOW LOOKS
MORE fORMIOABLE
REJyTyEN sTION OF BLUE ELEN-
EN- HAS CAUSED SOME CUES
TI0N ABOUT TIGERS VIC
TORY.

PRINCETON, \. J.. NOV. To-
Princeton football coaches aye show
ing no undue citation to-day over the
approaching game next Saturday with
Yale. Truth to tell, there have come
to the Tiger camp disquieting rumors
OF "a rejuvenation in ELS eleven. Al
thought Princeton is confident 1t Will
tie able to trail YaIe's blue In the
dust, just as 1t did in the days of the
Poes. it Is nevertheless not to be de-
MED that the gridiron warriors do
not like the color of the reports that
come from New Haven of secret prac-
tees, and renewed yigor and new life
among the sons of Ell Yale.
There seems little question. how
ever. that Princeton will he able to
take the measure of the New Haven
ties, though II is foolish to predict a
score. or even to declare that Yale
will not score. Ii Is conceded on all
hands to-day that Princeton viii win.
but the news that comes from New
Haven tells Of strange, forehodlng
confidence in the battered eleven
there. Despite Browns overwheiIn-
ing victory over Yale last Saturday,
It is said the coaches have gotten to-
gethar, buried their Ratchet and have
begun hammering football into the
Yale team for breakfast, lunch and
dinner.
we have been undefeated and un-
scored upon this year" is the Prince
tonian's cry to-day. however, land we
will come ont OF the Yale game with

Many Uses of Sand.

The sands of the sea are singularl4 useful. They are of primary impor- taDce in glassmaking. They have an important place in warfare, as d bank of sand twenty inches thick is proof against modern rifle shots. The cleo trical properties of sand show that 1t has positive electricity, although q rod of silica the chief constituent of sand. Is negative.
 The singular drying effect which oc- CUTS when q stretch of wet sand is pressed by the foot is due entirely to an alteration in the pilin@ of the s;;ind grains. Normally the grains are close together. but abnormal piliig is brought about by pressure of the foot, the space between the edges of the grains being enlarged and the water drained away. If the pressure of the fool is continued the sand becomes wetter ttan ever. the partial vacuum quickly hr.nging water from the sur rounding sand.
 In quicksand the moving character is thought to be due to the iml'Fison- ment between the grains of gases from organic matter.-ChicagO Tribune
