ELEVENS CLASH
Michigan and Cornell Bat
tie To-day.

Ithaca, n. Y, Nov. 1O-One of the
hardest fought intersectional battles of
the year will be fought here tomorrow,
when Michigan and Cornell, for the first
time since 1894, will meet on the gridiron
on Percy Field, and, judged by the big
throng of visitors in town tonight, it
will be one Of the biggest fall athletics
days. in CorHell's history. In spite of
Coach Yost's expressions as he talked
here this noon, Michigan rules favorite
by the odds OF 10 to Z, but there is plenty
of confidence that CorneIls regular team
is coming through tomorrow with a sur
prise. Cornell's final preparation was an
hours signal drill on the field with eight
coaches looking them over. They looked
good. They spent some time punting and
it is evident that Cornell will use a kick
ing game for some time tomorrow. The
Cornell lineup is: EyTIch and Fritz,
ends; Munk and Champaign, tackles;
O'Rourke and Munns, guards; Whyte,
center; Butler, quarter back; OConnor
and ]. S. Whyte, half backs, and Under

BRANCH LIBRARIES
FOR NEW SCHOOLS
Would Increase Circulation,
Says Mr.. Bowerman.

Recommending the establishment of
special library rooms in new public
schools erected in Washington as
branches of the District Public Library.
Librarian George F. Bowerman. in his
seventh annual report to the Commission
ers, declares that thousands of children,
who do not patronize the Public Library
now because OF its remoteness from their
homes, would soon become enrolled as
users of books.
Pointing out the fact that many cities
smaller than Washington are establish
ing systems of branch libraries Mr.. Bow
erman says it is his belief that the home
circulation OF the Public Library is dis
propOrtionately small for a registration
of more than 5000 persons.
OF 5000 children in Washington be-
tween the ages of five and seventeen
years, only 1000 are registered as library
users, according to the report These
1900 users of books draw out each year
about l55,OOO volumes. but this number
could be largely increased, according to
Mr.. BOwerman, who says:
with a system of branches distributed
throughout the city within easy reach of
all homes 1t would be possible to enroll
as library users a very large proportion
of the population, and especially of the
children of school age, and both those
who are now enrolled and those who
would then be enrolled would use very
much larger number of books per capita
than is now practicable in view of the
remOteness of the central library from
the homes of most readers"

STEALS WORTHLESS PAPERS.

The thief who entered the home OF
John C. Smith, 2O22 Fourth street north
west, shortly after noon yesterday had
a good nose for pocketbooks. but a bad
scent for money. Instead of stealing a
purse containing a number OF crisp bills.
the robber grabbed a pocketbook filled
with papers and insurance policies OF no
value whatever to any one save their
owner.
1t was shortly after the thief had made
his escape that the owner of the two
pocketbooks returned and discovered his
loss. At first he believed his money had
been stolen, but on investigation found
that his bank roll was intact and had
not been recognized by the thief.
