POLICE VAINLY SEEK
 CAUSE OF GHOSTLY
 FOOTBALLS OH ROOF

John McHa1e, a roofer roonfns at BPS State street, resolved to sound ff1s mystery of strange footfalls, late last night, when he was awakened by a familiar but uncanny sound of the batter of bare feet on the roof ex- tending on low addition at the rear of his bedroom window. He leaped out of bed in time to see c pair of trousered legs disappear through his bedroom window, then called in Po- licemen John Ryan and James O7zef1 who were in State street near ths front of the house.
 They tracked a pair of small bare feet from the rear of McHale's room, across the tin roof, around an angie of the building and to an open win dow at the side of the same house where the tracks ended. Inside fhs room was a man asleep whose feet were too large to fit the tracks The house was at once aroused and search ed from basement to attic but no trace of the owner of the footprints could be found.
 McHa1e has heard the same sound for several nights of late, and be was beginning to believe there was some thing supernatural in the manifesto tions. until he saw the very ordinary pair of legs dangling through his win dow last night. He has provided EsFn- self with a pistol with which he pro poses to take shot at the owner Of the legs at the first opportunity.

YALE GRANTS SCHOLARSHIPS
Two Every Year to Be Awarded Free to Graduates of New Haven
 High.

New Haven, Nov. 11-Representa- tives of Yale, at conference in the Mayors office, yesterday afternoon, acceded to the requests of a commit tee of Aldermen and citizens and agreed to grant two complete scholar ships, one in the academic department and one in the Sheffield scientific school, to members of the graduating class at the New Haven High school each year.
 The result of these negotiations is more than ordinarily important just at this time, in view of the recent strife between Yale and the city. The action of the university in granting the scholarships, 1t is expected, will do much to- cement together the breach which was recently caused by the attempt of Yale to secure permis- sion to lay conduits through the streets from a central lighting and heating plant It is also interesting coming so soon after the discussion of Thursday night at the Economic ban quet at the Lawn club.
 1t Is understood that the scholar ships will be awarded to students making the highest stand in their studies The agreement will go into effect next year. It means that there will be the tuition of seven years free to boys from the local High school all the time.

SAD BLOW TO ROMANCE
Baron Who Would Wed Meriden
 Widow to be Deported.

New York, Nov. 11-Adolf Won Schuer, who claims to be a German nobleman, must return to his native land without an American bride. De- spite the protests of a trim little Ger man widow who came here yesterday from Meriden, Conn.,, to make an ap- peal in the baron's behalf he will be deported on the steamer President Lincoln, today.
 The widow, who said she was Mrs. Olga Shalto, went to Ellis Island, ac- companied by Mrs. Mary Schumann. who came from Meriden with her. She was informed there by Assistant Commissioner Uhl that the case had been decided by the authorities at Washington and she would not be per- mitted even a short talk with the man who had come to this country with SIP in his pockets to marry her. Mrs.. Shalto displayed considerable indignation when informed that her trip to New York had been in vain.
 She told the officials that she was ready to marry the baron if he had the proofs of his nobility which he had agreed to produce on his arrival in this country. She had heard of him, she said, through a matrimonial agency which has it's main office in Berlin, but has a branch here.

Baldwin on inc
 Election Results Governor Says it Looks Like Democl atic Ticket Next
 Year

Governor Simeon E. Baldwin. wf1er asked what he thought of the results of the different elections of last aes- day, replied as follows:
 Governor Foss reelection seems to me proof of two things; first, his great personal popularity in the state of Massachusetts; second, the dfssat- isfaction of the people in Mzssaehu~ setts because of the excessive duties in the tariff laws, so unfavorabIe t0 New England interests.
 'T think the loss of Democratic votes in New Jersey indicates that what are termed the progressive po1i- cies have been pressed too far in the campaign in that state.
 "The Democratic gains in Ohio show that the people there are well satisfied with the sound Democratic administration which they are now enjoying.
 "On the whole, think that the general result throughout the coun- try strengthens confidence in success of the Democratic national ticker next fall"
