HARVARD PLAYS PRINCETON
Town Excited Over Contest, Fir<
One in Last Is Years.

Princeton, N. j., Nov. 3..-This
quiet little village is teeming with
excitement, for tomorrow the local
gridiron is to be the scene of the first
football game that Harvard and
Princeton universities have played in
fifteen years. The town is gay]y at
tired, and the streets are thronged
with the ''early Birds The pennant
peddlers are already here with their
"winning colors" of either university.
Practically all the tickets for the
game are sold and record-breaking
is assured.
While sentiment in favor of the
local university runs strong, the bet
ting odds indicate that the Harvard
team will go into the fray a slight
favorite. She Crimson has made an
excellent showing from the start of
the season and it is generally conced-
ed that the Orange and Black will
have the hardest kind of a fight to
gain the victory.

the championship of the middle West
depending in large measure upon the
outcome, interest in tomorrow's foot
ball game between Chicago and Min

game will be played on Northrop
largest crowd that ever attended a

wise to be prepared for troubles Of

WEBsTER's BLUE COATS.
His Liking For the Color Came From
His Early Homespun Suits.

His Liking For the Color Ssms
His Early Honiespun Suits.
Daniel Webster went to Dartmouth
college in homespun suit OF which
probably every thread was cardea,
spun and woven by his mothers mana
from the wool Of their own sheep. IL
was q dyed In the wool suit. and the
color was indigo blue.
In the south butternut was used; Dut.

; ed with the various dyes that root and
flower, bark and leaf could be made TO
weld through the agency Of vitriol ana
alum and copperas to "set' them iast.
the universal standby In New England
was the blue pot, par excellence Tue
"dye pot" that stood In the chimney
corner Of every kitchen in that region.
So Webster was fitted out In indigo
blue from collar to ankle. BEFORE
reaching Hanover there came on one
of those drenching rains that wet a
man to the skin. The suit held Its own
but it parted with enough dye to unge
Daniel blue from head to foot.
Webster had liberal stratum OF
sentiment in his mental makeup. and
for some reason the color OF his young
manhood remained his favorite wear
through life. He wore blue coats to his
dying day. If any one ever saw MIN
in one Of different color the fact mas
not been made Of record.-Exchange
