Joseph was angry. He had flourished,
according to his own lights, without
an inheritance for years; he did not
want money-except enough for coffee
and sinkers-he had no ambition in the
world except to shovel coal. And

YedrsO Old Today,
Tells Her Rules
Especial to the Newark STAR

NEW BRUNSWICK, Dec. 20.-Cele-
brating her hundredth birthday to-
day is Mrs. Priscilla Ayres Inslee, who
was born on a farm at Woodbridge on
December 20, 1911.
In formulating her rules for longev-
ity, Mrs. Inslee says:
Never worry and forget, you have
nerves. That's the way to live long
and happily. Then, too, it is best to
take an interest in young people. If
n is loving and friendly, life runs
along more smoothly and with less
friction"
Mrs. Inslee has many "reminiscences
of the days on her fathers farm when
flax was grown and household linen
spun and % at home.
"All of us girls" she said, used to
join in beating out the shells, spin
ming the product and later weaving it
into sheets and other household linen"
Both Mrs. Inslee's parents lived until
nearly a hundred. Her health is very
good and h goes about her home at
So5 George street unassisted. Her eye
sight Is unusually quick, in spite of
the fact she has reached the century
mark.

ket Court and asked Magistrate Nc
Quades for a warrant for his brother
on which he could be sent to Bellevue
for examination as to his sanity.
In court it did seem that something
was wrong with Joseph. Begrimed
from head to foot he stood beside his
prosperous and worried brother, and
asked to be ''let get out o here so he
could go to work" He didn't want
money; he was satisfied with life, he
wanted to shovel coal. So he vas sent
to Bellevue.

tiger COACH Resigns

Philadelphia, Feb. Bill Roper,
head coach of the Princeton football
team will resign as active coach at
the Tigertown institute to open law
offices in this city next December.
Roper announces that he will occupy
the position Of advisory coach next
fall, and that the chances favor the ap-
pointment of one of the stars of re-
cent years as head field coach for next
fall During Roper's career at Prince
ton he has made greater strides than
any man who has guided the tigers
during the last eight years, and so
satisfactory is his WORK to the athletic
association that the position is open
for him for as long period as he cares
10 stay.
1t is likely that Roper will be asked
to select the man who is to do the ac-
tive field work while the former coach
will sit back and draw up the tigers
course of action on the gridiron.
Roper says that he favors the Yale
system because the man doing the field
work under the system is always more
familiar than the head coach with the
style and the weaknesses of the play
ers, as he has been in the same lineup
with most Of the players, playing with
them the year previous.

Valley City manager. "our fellows are
entitled 10 the state championship.
We are the only bunch of players that
have played all over the state and won
all our games in the f1ickertaiI tossing
race"
The ID. B. c. aggregation is not a
strictly amateur team, and cannot be
counted in the race for the champion
ship Of the state. Furthermore, these
players have not yet met any of the
North Dakota quintets and cannot fig
ure in the race throughout the state,
as l see the situation, in a true sports
rranlIke manner. However / would like
to arrange a game with the d. B. C.
quintet, just to test our metal against
a bunch OF professional basketball
tCssers."
Il have tried to arrange a game with
the A. c., which / understand has a
very fast bunch of men. However.
here l have been given to understand
the Aggies are not meeting independ-
cnt teams this year, playing nothing
but bona -fide school teams. Sc again
VIC nave been cut out of meeting one OF
the fastest teams in the state, by that
team restricting itself to a certain
class.
Il am anxious to meet the Fargo col
lege team and the Cooke team of Min
neapolis. The latter organization has
in it's lineup O'Connell, Chicken and
Doyle, who play with the d. B. c. on
occasions. and I am now negotiating

FOOTBALL RULES 0. K.

New Haven, Conn, Feb. THE
football rules committee did just the
right thing in leaving the code as 1t is"
said Walter Camp, Yale's represen-
tative on the rules committee, today.
THE changes made are slight, but
they will add to the efficiency of the
game. No important alterations were
suggested"
Mr.. Camp said today that the codi-
fication committee of three, of which
he is a member, will meet at once to
complete the draft of rules for the
season. He says that it was a keen
disappointment that the rules for last
fall were not published till as late as
they were.
Captain Howe of the Yale eleven
planned to attend the rules committee
meeting with Mr.. Camp, but he went
to the college infrmary yesterday with
a slight attack of grip. He and Fred
Daily, leader of the Yale eleven last
fall, said that they were pleased with
the rules as adopted last night.

indoor Baseball Games Played Last
Nisht-ons Close and Exciting
Contest.

The indoor baseball games played
last night at the Y. NJ. C. A. gym
proved most interesting to the fans
who gathered to witness the contests.
Only two games were played, the
Bapists forfeiting to the Broadway
Methodists.
In the first game the w. players
put up errorless ball and defeated the
Presbyterians II to 8. The church
men used two pitchers, but could not
stop the long drives of their opponents.
The second game was between the
A. c. faculty and the First Methodists
and proved TO be a close and exciting
contest. However, the church men
proved their superior ability and
snatched the brand from the burning
carrying home the victory to 4.
The standing of the teams is as fol-
