The first defeat in two years on its
home grounds was meted out TO the
Georgetown University foot ball team
Yesterday. The score was 2S to >. The
great eleven representing the Carlisle
Indian school was the medium by which
Georgetown was defeated. The loss Of
the game 20 such an eleven as that
which the Indians placed on the field
was no discredit to Georgetown, and that
the local university was outclassed BIZ
an opponent which is inferior to none
in the country was no more than should
have been expected
Carlisle presented a foot bali team al
the start OF the game which was heavier
and faster by far than either of those
which have represented the school in the
past few years. The two Indian elevens
which came to Washington to play
George Washington and Virginia in no
way compared with tie one which went
out to do battle against Georgetown yes
terday. That Georgetown should be de-
feated by such an eleven should occasion
no surprise, especially when il is con-
sidered that that eleven has had about
81 per cent OF the advantage in the prac-
tice workouts.
From the time that play was started
it was evident that the Indians were the
Gray. While II took the redskins some
minutes to make their first touchdown. il
was plain to be seen that Georgetown
had little or no chance TO win. even
though the Hilltoppers did brace and
rush the ball down the field for an appar-
ent touchdown just after being scored on
the first time. the Indians had the bet
ter foot ball team in almost every de-
partment. They we're better at getting
down under punts. their tackling was
much cleaner and harder, they followed
the ball more closely. in short. they were
the superiors OF the Georgetown men
mainly because they eXcelled in physical
condition ard al-round foot bali form.
As far as weight went the Georgetown
team averaged as much as did Carlisle.
but at that the advantage WAS decidedly
with the latter team along that line IN
that its avo.rdupois was much more even
Is distributed. Carlisle presented a well
balanced team. which Georgetown did
not. Two or three OF the Georgetown
men outweighed their opponents by a
great deal, but this advantage was more
Than overbalanced by the extreme light
ness of the men played in other positions
by the Blue and Gray.

Amazing Duchess Begins Her Term
 Of Imprisonment
Special from United Press.)

London, Nov. 10-The amazing duchess" began the four months term in jail that the London sessions sem fenced her to. late yesterday, for ob- taining money under false pretenses.
 The amazing duchess'' as she only began to be called following her ar- rest, several weeks ago on charge of 0efrauding some hundreds of peo- pie out of money to an amount rum ming, altogether, into the hundreds of thousands of dollars, figured promi- nently in English society for a long time as the Duchess Adelaide De Will lano. She is handsome woman about 40 and during the heyday of her career was celebrated for the glacial quality of her hauteur and for the mercilessness of her snubs, although she could be gracious enough when it pleased her. A
 Though she professed to have three palaces, she chose to live at fashion army of servants and accompanied everywhere by an immaculate young man who acted as her private secre- tary. She went everywhere and knew everyone worth knowing both in Eng land and on the continent.
 g As a matter of fact, as was brought out at her trial, the Duchess has been swindler for years and was sentenced in France. in June, 1903, to 19 months imprisonment. Her career began with her elopement with a rich young lieu tenant from her husband, an army of ficer in India, on whose income it was impossible for her to live in the style she demanded. Her husband divorc- ed her and she was married to the lieutenant who, in turn, left her or account of her behavior at Monte Carlo. Later she became the wife o1 young man passing under the bogus title of Due De Villano. He was 3; and had no income, however, so the Duchess organized gang of marriage brokers. The police say she actually did marry a few young women to inn pecunious noblemen but most of hel clients were dropped as soon as they wearied of furnishing her with money All this time society never doubted the Duchess genuineness. Hel downfall came with her private sec. retary's arrest for paying bills witt bogus checks. The Duchess arrest followed. The secretary was acquit ted.
