Football Likely To Furnish Some
 Surprise Saturday
Harvard-PrincetOn Cane Will
 be Best Engagement Arranged
 For Enthusiasts

That there is a general finding of themselves" by the more important football teams is shown by Saturdays s games. In most cases the elevens showed form reversals for the better. and today the coaches are looking out on the week unusually cheery and con- fident. Of course there are excep- tions to this general Optimisrl-Penn- sylvania for instance-but at Harvard. Yale, Princeton, and Cornell they are feeling better than they were a week ago.
 Perhaps with a 20 to victory over Brown to their credit Harvard's foot ball men have sort of a right to stroll along entirely satisfied, but what of Princeton's recovery against Holy Cross and Yale's marked improvement in the Colgate game? Cornell, how every must not be overlooked with a splendid to victory over the Uni versity of Pittsburgh. The up-StaterS showed more superiority than the score indicates.
 Against Brown, Harvard showed ex- treme versatility of attack and de- fence. During the week following the miserable exhibition against Williams, the Crimson team gathered tremen- dovs power, which launched itself against Brown. The interference was close-knit and swift. For example, Campbell, Huntington and Potter, welded with the crashing Wendell, swept through and around Browns line again and again for big gains. Niso, when one considers that Brown is perhaps far in advance of any other Eastern eleven at working the for ward pass, some idea of Harvard's stanch defence may be gained. Not only did Brown fail to gain consis- tently with this forward pass-worked so effectively in previous games-but Capt. Sprackling could slip away on none of his long runs The latter fact is coincident with masterly end play by Felton and Smith.
 Regarding these Harvard ends Per haps next to Fitzpatrick, Smith was one. of the best ends in the country a year ago. Brown will agree with this statement even though the Providence men have Adams and Asbaugh. Then Harvard has Felton and OBrien, ca pablo yOnAing mates for him.
 The Brown-Harvard game might in d1cate that a powerful battering style Of attack can wreck the finest piece of new football mechanism that can be devised. From the score, 20 to 6. 1t is judged that Harvard is further advanced than last year at this time. In most quarters the Brown eleven of this year is rated a trifle superior to the 1910 combination. Consider then this 20 to 6, what it means and what it will mean when Princeton is met in the jungle next Saturday.

Harvard To Even Up Old Grudge At
 Princeton Nov. 4
Crimson Has Not Beaten Tigers in Past Twenty-FOur
 Years

This week Saturday Harvard and Princeton, two of footballs most ma tural rivals, will meet for the first time since 1896. Because of the early date the game will not figure greatly in the championship calculation later on, for neither team will be at it's best Both will be far below the form they expect to show three weeks hence.
 But it marks the resumption of football relations between universities that never should have drifted apart Football rivalry between Princeton as it is between Princeton and Yale and Harvard and Yale. For years the championship elevens have been coming from these three degree foun- dries, yet two of the three have met only twice in the past twentytwo years.
 Princeton and Harvard first met back in 1877. Since then fourteen games have been played. Princeton winning eleven. Harvard outscored the Tigers in 1877 '82 and again in 'S7. making it twenty-four years since the crimson has topped the orange and black. The last Harvard-Prince- ton match was decided in 1896, the Tigers winning 12 to o.
 Athletic relattoos between the two universities Woro badly strained for years; but with the passing of time there came a steady and an increas- ing demand for an annual battle on the gridiron. For long time the re- lations each had established with other football centers made this inn practicable.
 Even last winter, when the two were finally brought together, the tentative schedules drawn up by each prohibit a meeting at a time when the development of the teams would be such that the result would have a real bearing upon the champion ship.

SHOT HIM TO
 DEFEND HONOR
Mrs. z. R. Mckee Tells Jury Why She Killed Youthful
 Alan Garland
SAYS HE lnSUlTED HER
Both Arc From Prominent Families in the South-Accused Appeals to
 Jurors.

Opeloussa, La, oct. 31-In the lit- tie old red brick courthouse in St. Landry Parish, crowded as it never has been before. Mrs. Zee Runge Mc- Rec. member of one of the oldest families in the state, faced her ac- cusers yesterday and told why she killed Allan Garland. a young mem- Der of a family as prominent as her own.
 She said she shot ''to protect her honor," but her only explanation of why each bullet took effect in the Tulane students back was that she was so excited she did not know whether or not Garland turned to flee as she shot. Showing the effects she said excitedly, she got her pistol when Garland insulted her and fired when he advanced on her, saying You cannot scare me-
 Her testimony was completed after six hours on the stand.
 undue friendship between herself and Garland and explained the circum- stances under which he spent three or four nights at her home.
 She admitted Garland and she were often together, but added that her CulloTcn were dlBdyS WllQ lueIu.
 She was asked if she thought Gar land intended to attack her in her home at 10 o'clock in the morning with all the doors opened and with her children and two servants in the yard She replied she did not know what Garland might do, because he had said he was not afraid of her and was advancing toward her.
 Did you think che was going to hurt you then and there?"
 "Yes sir. A man who makes such a proposal to a wOman-I do not know what he would do to woman9'
 .'Now, you are positive that was why you shot him?''s
 ''Tes. sir, to defend my honor. shot him to defend my honor,'' she 6n51 emphatically.
 Why did Allan come to your home. and spend three nights?'
 "His uncle was visiting the Gar lands and Allan had had some trou- b1e with a young lady and he ordered Allan out of the house. Allan asked me If I wouldn't let him come to my house and stay for the next few nights. I didn't want to do anything that would cause friction between the two families. so went to Mrs. Gar land and asked her whether there would be any objection to Allan's staying there until his uncle went home. She said no and that was why Allan stayed at my house.
 After admitting she was a good shot and that she and Garland had been shooting at targets together she was asked by Attorney veasey for the prosecution:
 "Aren't you stronger than Allan and didn't you say this morning that you were?"
 T said I was fleshier and bigger but I don't know what is the strength of man as compared to that of woman,'' Mrs. Mckee replied.
 "Now, tell me, couldn't you have picked this boy up by the arms and pushed him out of the house?'
 T might have if I had had that much time, Mr. yeasey. Do you think q woman is going to get into a fist fight with a man who has insulted her? Why, I don't think so and I don't think the wives of any of these

HORSEWHIPS WRONG MAN. Farmer Mistakes AutOist For J. H
 Tyson and Uses Lash.

Greenwich, Oct. 31-John H. Tyson of Riverside was horsewhipped by proxy yesterday by a farmer who said Tyson had often crowded him off the road with his auto. The unwilling proxy was Alexander Howell, president of the Howell Motors Company and State agent for the s. P C. A.
 Howell in his fast car was turning from Post Road into Riverside ave- nue when he met a farm wagon, in which were three men. As the car reached the wagon the driver of the horse reached out with his whip and cut Mr. Howell twice with the lash across the head, drawing blood How ell stopped his car, dragged the driver from the wagon, gave him a good lick ing, and then informed him he was under arrest.
 The farmer said he thought Howell was Tyson and was sorry he had struck him. Howell let the farmer go with a caution.

Miss Kimba|I's
 Unusual Nerve
Singer Participates in Entertain. ment of Samuel H. Harris Lodge After Thrilling Ex- perience in Fire Swept Dwell ing

Samuel H. Harris lodge, l. O. O. F., celebrated in elaborate manner last evening its 35th birthday. Three hours of speeehmaking, song and mus ic followedEsby refreshments provided entertainment for a gathering of about 800 members and guests Late in the evening damper fell upon the entertainment when it was learned that James N. Booth, former town clerk, had succumbed to a lingering illness in New Haven. He was for many years one of the leading mem bers of the lodge
 An interesting feature of the enter tafnment which was not generally known until later was the display of courage of Miss Edna Kimball, a singer of New York city. Miss Kim ball had been carried from her apart ment in New York city, unconscious, only q few hours before, when the place was gutted by fire. Most of her belongings were destroyed and even the gown she wore last evening was still redolent of smoke. It was not known until she collapsed after her part in the entertainment was over, that she had undergone such a thrill ing experience so soon before her ap- pearance.
 The celebration was confined prin- cipally to members and their families. A spirit of good fellowship permeat- ed the gathering. The birthday party will live long in the memories of those fortunate enough to have attended.
 Past Grand Master Sidney w Chal- Ieager delivered an address of well come in his accustomed pleasing man. ner. He dwelt upon the significance of the celebration and said that the history of the lodge was ample foun- dation for expectation of still greater things in store for it.
 The lodge was organized Oct. 27, 1876. with a membership of 12. Its present membership is 665, is rapidly growing and the lodge is one of the largest and strongest of the order. It's mem- bership includes many representative residents.
 The program of entertainment was carried out as published in The Farmer of Saturday.
