west.
Taken in all the Oak Park team
is one of the best ever fitted out by
a Chicago high school, and its rec
ord in the fight for the championship
of the middle west is liable to stand
out as a guiding star for other teams
in years TO come. Its goal line has
never been crossed, while the orange
and blue gladiators have rolled up a
total of 231 points in the games
played this season. But that is not

| won the championship Of the biggest
interscholastic league of any stand
| ing, with only three men who played
in the regular lineup in 1909, while
fourth was a substitute. The 9TH
ers were merely getting their first
/ taste of the gabe on the second elev-
en-, but to look at these same men
as they play the sport this year. no
one would venture to suggest that
such was the case.
A great zeal of the success won
by the Oak Park team is due to the
excellent coaching the squad has re-
ceived from Coach Robert c. Zuppke
who assumed these duties on Sept.
1st. Without the slightest idea of
the abilities of any of the men or
what style of play they were accus-
toned to. 1t did not take him long,
however, to decide an a, radical up
lift in the methods of charging and
the other small things that count
so much when rightfully carried out.
AS mere stranger he soon estab-
lished his confidence with the boys,
and in no time had them working
in his own way. The team first took
on the alumni and won to 0, af-
ter a hard scrimmage. 1t was left
to the first real game of the year
for ZZuppke to turn the trick of
years among local high school teams
when he waited away to meet the
St Johns military academy which is

Never in the last five years had the

to do so at the hands of Zuppke's
speedboys to the tune OF 25 to 0, was

derstand. The Cook county high
school league of Chicago composed
of fifteen city schools playing under
strict eligibility rules, then opened
up its schedule, Oak Park winning

hardly made an impression on the
Cook county fans who had their eyes
on the southern division team where
Hyde Park and Wendell Phillips
held the line of thought. Oak Park
defeated haywood in the next game
21 to 0, and stood ready to battle

LYMAN ABBOT 70
YEARS OLD
Veteran Editor of Outlook
Has Had Varied
Career.

New York, Dec. 17.-When Dr.
Lyman Abbot reached his Office this
morning he found in his mail num-
erous anticipatory messages of greet
ing to remind him of the fact that to-
morrow will be his seventy-fifth
birthday anniversary. DR.. Abbot
has made no arrangements to cele-
brate the day though it is likely he
will be kept busy receiving the per-
sonal congratulations of a host of
friends.
DR.. Abbot has had singularly
rich and varied career and there is
probably no man of his age who has
welded a larger influence in the
broad field of American affairs. Rox-
bury Massachusetts, was the place
OF his birth. AS youth he was
sent to New York university, after
which he was admitted, in 1856, to
the New York bar.
The ministry attracted him more
than the practice of law, however,
and In 1850 he was ordained Con-
gregational preacher. Through SER
vice in various parishes he grew so
much in pulpit power that he was
regarded as the one person worthy
to succeed Henry Ward Beecher in
the famous Plymouth Church in
Brooylyn when that great divine
passed away.
Before Beecher's death he and Dr.
Abbot had been associated in the
editorship Of The Christian Union,
| DR.. Abbot beginning at that time his
career in journalism. profession
in which he has won his greatest re-
nown Since 1898 he has been edi-

second son of John Govro commonly
known as lib" Govro went out for
the evening and Thursday morning his
father found his son had not returned

in brook below his home.
There was no water in his lungs and
his skull was crushed in several pla-
ces. The greater part of the commu-

of his life in Albany. Funeral serv-
ices were held Saturday at 2 100 p. m.

CAPTAIN DAVIS DEAD

Capt. Alexander Warner Davis, one
of the best known Grand Army men of
Vermont and one of the oldest mail
clerks in New England, died at his
home in Glover at 9 o'clock Sunday
morning from complication of
Bright's disease and valvular disease
of the heart.
He was born in Hardwick. March 9,
1912, he enlisted in Company D, Sixth
Vermont, on Sept. 25, 1861. He soon
became first sergeant and was very
active during the whole war, re-en-
listing in the field in December, 1863.
He was wounded at Savage Station,
captured by the Confederates and i'm
prisoned at Libby Prison and Belle
Isle, but afterward exchanged. On
April II, 1864, he was commissioned
first lieutenant in the 39th U. S. col
ored troops, a regiment of negro vol
unteers led by white officers. Later
he became captain of his company and
remained in the service through part
of the reconstruction period.
Declining a proffered commission in
the regular army, he returned to YER
mont and in 1882 entered the postal
service, having at first the now obso-
lete run from Concord to Richford, and
afterward becoming transfer clerk at
| White River Junction
| In 1889 he was appointed postmaster
at White River Junction, holding that
position for four years. He then re-
turned to the railway mail service and
for several years past had the run
from Newport to Richford.
A short time ago he retired. Capt.
Davis was man of unusually genial
temperament, exceptionally popular,
] deeply interested in military affairs
and the historian of the company in
which he enlisted.
A widow, Mrs. Caroline M. Davis,
two sisters living in Iowa, and one son,
President Ozora S. Davis of the Chi
cago Theological seminary survive him.
The funeral services were held al
the Methodist Episcopal church ir
Glover Tuesday afternoon, Captain
Davis being member of that denom
ination. The church was completely
filled with relatives and friends
among them being nine surviving
members of the company in which ht
originally enlisted. Rev. W. B. Duke

A HUNDRED YEARS AGO
Centennial Celebration Monday of Event
of Runaway Pond" Site of VIII
son Mill Thought to
Be Found.

Growing interest in the centennial
celebration of the important historical
event of the running out of the waters
of Long Pond in Glover set for Mon
day next, by the Orleans County His
torical society, was given new impetus
Thursday when it was announced that
A. C. Phillips of Glover had discovered
what he believes to be the site of the
Wilson mill swept away by the rushing
waters of Long Pond" 100 years ago.
Mr.. Phillips is a grandson of one of
those present at the letting out of the
pond, namely, Spencer Chamberlain,
one person who ran from the pond to
the mill to notify whoever was there
that the water was coming. They
had just time to save themselves from
being swept away by the water,
1t has not before been known just
where the mill set, or if known it was
lost track of in the three generations
passed since the event, but little doubt
! is entertained by those who have gone
to the discovered ruins, about this
being the place. It is on the road
| leading to Alexander's farm (known
as the Aldrich FARM about three
fourths of mile from Glover village
/ south and almost directly in the fork OF
! the main ROAD ana bne TOdu iedo1nS' "
Alexander's down in cedar ravine.
Here may be found what appears to
be the ruins of a stone wall foundation
of mill, in one place now standing
six or seven high in fairly good
state of preservation. What appears
to be the remains of the dam is also
found and channel leads from the
dam to the mill site, which would
have been the canal to bring water to
the old overshot wheel. The whole Is
grown over with trees and moss and
all has the appearance of being a cen
tury old.
Mr.. Baldwin, who is to deliver the
historical address Monday. has spent
much time and energy preparing what
is thought to be the most thorough anC
