Carnegie will upon the death of her husband become in effect if not in re- ality the custodian of her daughters fortune as well as her own.
 That Mrs. Carnegie is one of the most retiring of women is due entire ly to her own wish. She has been i'm portuned time and again in every pos sible manner to enter fashionable so. cial life, but she prefers to make her home and her family the center of her interests. It must not be supposed that Mrs. Carnegie is in any sense narrow in her activities or her sympathies
 Mrs. Carnegie, who is now in her fifty-second year, is a native of New York city, which has always been home to her, for all that she has acquired such an affection for her hus- bandss native town of Dunfermline, Scotland. As Louise Whitfield, the daughter of prosperous wholesale merchant, she grew up in the metrop- oils and quaint old Gramercy park, close by her home, was her play ground. The Carnegie and Whitfield were ana t0o mGT- chants daughter and Andrew Carne- gie were good friends for years ere any thought of tenderer relationship seems to have entered the head of either. The romance that eliminated in their marriage began in 1879 when Andrew Carnegie returned from trip around the world and found his girl friend transformed. in comparative ly brief space of time, into an attrac- tive woman.
 However. it was not until eight years later and following the death of the ironmaster's mother. that the two were married.
 The honeymoon was passed on the Isle of Wight and then the couple went to Scotland. where they leased castle, which they occupied for some ten years, until MT. Carnegie, in 1897. purchased his now famous Skibo es- tate and removed, with his wife and

New York.-The recent accident to Andrew Carnegie and the solicitude of his wife regarding the condition of the famous -philanthropist has indirectly focused public attention upon one of the least-known of the worlds wealthy women. Mrs. Carne- gie probably will control for many years one of the greatest American fortunes. She is considerably younger than her husband and it is only nat course of events she will outlive him many years. Moreover, it will be years before little Miss Carnegie, the only child becomes of age, so that Mrs.

 Notwithstanding the demands upon her time by many house guests, by voluminous (much of it uninvited) correspondence and by elaborate housekeeping arrangements which she personally supervises, it is seldom that Mrs. Carnegie finds it necessary to digress from her rule to give over the morning hours of each day to her daughter Margaret-reading and talk ing with her. playing games and, if opportunity offers, riding, driving or walking.
 While Mrs. Carnegie is fond of out door life she does not go in for stren- uous athletics and she has no fads un- less a passionate love for music can be considered one. She has prefer ence for the music of the pipe organ and it is she who has been the in- spiration of Andrew Carnegie's nu- merous gifts of organs to churches on both sides of the Atlantic. In not a few instances Mrs. Carnegie has her self paid the salary of a good organist in order that the people of poor con- gregation might derive full benefit from an organ installed by he: hus- band-or through his aid-for Andrew Carnegie, following his custom, pre- fers to contribute from one-half to four-fifths the cost of the instrument, rather than to donate it outright.
 Mrs. Carnegie's simplicity of taste extends to dress. though it may be added that this simplicity is of that difflcult-to-attain variety which in- wolves the use of rich materials, har- mony of colors and artistic ensemble. She has her own personal charities apart from those to which her hus- band gives so much of his time, and on several occasions, in connection with her work on behalf of the thous. .ands of tenants of the Skibo estate, this reserved Lady Bountiful has been induced to make an impromptu public address

They talk about football being a dangerous game-bosh!-wh don't they talk about skating? Let me tell you something: skat. ing on the ice Is a lot more dangerous than football. That's what I've got to say about it."
 Willie Heston said that. The for. mer halfback was discussing the ag,. tation against football. Willie does not think there will be many changes He would favor no changes whatever
 "I have been mixed up in this game for nine years-nine long years" re. peated Heston. T can say to vou that I saw no fatality in that time, and the worst accident I ever witnessed was the fracturing of two collar bones
 q could never see where men risked life and limb in football It was al. ways little more than harmless game to me-
 "Of course, if something must be done before the game can be resumed. why let the legislatures do it. think that if they must have some rules they should be made into state laws and that law should be that no male Der. son under IS years of age can play football. Arrest him if he is seen in football uniform"
 That football will be played at West Point this year is assured by the com. pletion of the seasons schedule. which comprises nine games, and, with the exception of Bowdoin on Oc- tober 1, which will be the first game, the schedule has the same teams as last year Yale will again be the third game, with Harvard two weeks later. There are the only two big teams the cadets will meet. Washington and Jefferson has been dropped and Bow doin taken cn in it's place.
 The board in control of athletics at the University of Michigan has given out the football schedule for 1910 as far as 1t is completed. The only game winch has not been definitely booked is the one with Pennsylvania. This probably will be played November 12 on Franklin field.
 Notre Dame will be required to play under Michigan eligibility rules The following is the schedule announced:
 October S-Case, at Ann Arbor
 Oct. 15-M. A. C., at Ann Arbor.
 Oct. 22-O. s. U., at Columbus.
 Oct. 29-Syracuse at Syracuse.
 Nov. 5-Notre Dame at Ann Arbor
 Nov. 12-Pennsylvania at Philadel phia.

REMARKABLE PLAY

One of the most remarkable plays ever witnessed on ball field, every thing considered, took place at Detroit during the worlds series of 1908 And Ty Cobb, the sensational American leaguer, figured in it, as did Johnny Evers, the brainy little infielder of the Cubs. says T. H. Murnane. the famous sporting editor. Detroit had runners on first and second, with no one out, when Ty Cobb walked to the plate. The score at the time being close, 1t was Cobb's place to advance the run ners by sacrificing or on the hit-and- run play.
 Joe Tinker, at short, held the man close to second base, and "Three-fn- gered" Brown, on the firing line. was pitching his prettiest for Chicago. Brown delivered the ball over the out side corner of the plate, about waist high, and Cobb made perfect bunt the ball rolling slowly about ten feet inside third base line.
 Steinfeldt never moved from third base. Instead. he hung there, waiting fol the play that was to follow. And follow it did, like lightning
 AS Brown let go of the ball, he sprinted from his position and was ready to pick up the ball as Cobb laid it down, about half way between the plate and third.
 Instead of throwing from apparently the most natural position, Brown whirled to the left to get added force on his throw, and shot the sphere at Steinfeldt, with every ounce of energy he possessed, getting the ball to third in time to head off the runner.
 The throw had to be not only speedy. but absolutely accurate, ana Steinfeldt's catch was little less re- markable than the work of the star pitcher.
 That play was planned by fertile brained Johnny Evers, and was car ried out by Brown and Steinfeldt in manner that won the applause of even the opposing players.
 Sam Crawford, who had reached second on the play, overran the base few feet, and seemed to be petrihed' for the ball was shot to Evers by Steinfeldt in time to catch the Wahoo wonder off the sack by several rect for the second out.
 It was only few seconds later that Cobb attempted to steal second. to De thrown out by yards by Johnny King bringing to close one of the most remarkable innings ever known in baseball. and practically cinching an important victory for Chicago.

STOCK MARKETS

Receipts for this week have
been: cattle 1888, calves rs,
hogs 3707, and sheep 1881.
A feature of the market has
been the strength shown both in
demand and prices for sheep.
The cattle market has weakened
slowly under pressure and good
steers were sold for 5.65 to
$40. A choice lot sold for $50
but the market on hay fed steers
is about at the lesser figure
quoted above.
The cow market has been
strong and higir and the demand
for light butcher stuff was not
sup,tEod. T h e demand for
calSea1'ls strong ~. &c for tops
and 600 to $50 for the heavier
classes.
The sheep market rallied from
the depression that has lately
applied and showed considerable
strength. Prices were from 1C
to 15c better than the week be-
fore and the movement was
brisk.
The hog market was fairly
well supplied, both with con.
tracted deliveries from Missouri
River territory and from loca'
points. Prices have declined
slowly until 10c can be consider,
ed the high point.
