Celia knew exactly when Paul's
manner toward her changed. They
were engaged at their usual after
supper occupation, sitting on Celia's
porch recounting the incidents.of their
day-long separation, for Paul kept
books and Celia taught school through
most of the working hours.
They lived in adjoining houses, and.
even if they had not loved each other.
IT would have been natural to Paul to
prefer to sit with Celia on her porch
rather than alone on his own.
They did love each other and
though nothing was really settled yet,
1t was understood that they would be
married as soon as they could afford
to set up housekeeping. Most of the
money Celia earned went to the bank
for the purpose of buying linen and
china when they We're needed. And

larger amounts, for he earned more.

CarlIsle's first two touchdowns were
scored on record kicks, Thorpe grabbing
one for a 50-yard gain after booting the
ball himself The third touchdown was
scored on straight line plunging, the
final gain being for less than yards.

JOHNS HOPKINS IS
LUCKY TO WIN GAME
Score FIuke Touchdown on
Maryland Aggies.

Baltimore, Nd, Oct. 21-The Maryland
Agricultural College football eleven
proved 10 he no easy prey for Johns
Hopkins this afternoon at Homewood,
and although the local varsity had the
better of things in the last three-quar-
ters of the game, the final score showed
a fiuke touchdown on the Hopkins end
and a field goal to the credit of the Ag-
gies. Fulton kicked goal, and this made
the final result stand TO 3.
The score for the Black and Blue
eleven came in the second quarter. after
Shipley, in the first quarter, had put
over a pretty field goal. The Aggies at
tempted simulated kick formation, and
when the ball was fumbled on the
20-yard line, Bishop seized it and. aided
by some good interference on the part
of Cuttings, went the distance to the
goal line.
In the first quarter the visitors had
the better of the fight. The field was
wet, and this seemed to help them mate
rally. Fulton kicked to their 10-yard
line, and they went down the field, max
ing first down in a few seconds. Hop
kins forced them to punt, however, but
when the varsity tried to advance end
runs were used almost exclusively. and
johnson and Kemp, the two opposing
ends. prevented the Hopkins backs from
advancing.
On the defensive the Hopkins play
was ragged, and a tumble and a poor
attempt at a forward pass gave the col
legians the ball on the 25-yard line
From here Shipley tried to kick a field
goal, but it was blocked by Hopkins,
and Gillett punted to safety. Two min
utes after Shipley tried a drop kick
from the same distance as before, al
thought at a more difficult angle, and
this time 1t went over.

By HARRY c. NOE.

With the fourth game of the worlds s
baseball series postponed on account of
rain and wet grounds, the interest Of
many Washingtonians became focused
on the Navy-Princeton football game,
which was played at Annapolis yester~
day afternoon, the game ending with a
o to 0 score.
AS early as o'clock the crowds here
started on their way to the scene of the
battle, and all cars leaving Fifteenth
street and New York Avenue after that
hour were filled to their utmost capacity.
The fair sex Of Washington, who are
anxious to gain favor in the eyes of the
midshipmen, so they might be one of the
three girls to receive invita- tions to the
hops, were out in large numbers to root
for the future leaders Of the American
fleets.
The Princeton alumni chartered sew
eral special cars to take their friends to
the game, and occupied seats in the
Princeton cheering section, joining the
undergraduates in their songs
The field was slow, caused by the con-
tinuous drizzling rain. About an hour
before the beginning of the game the sun
tried to force its way from behind the
clouds, but after several unsuccessful at
tempts gave it up for a bad job, while
the rain again started to fall.
Rah Rahs Are Plentiful.
Despite the steady drizzle, which con-
tinued until after the game had started
the enthusiasm of the followers Of both
teams was keen, and the cheer leaders
found little trouble in extracting rah
rahs for their respective teams.
In the first period Pendleton, Prince
tons star quarter back, made an at
tempt to score for the Orange and Black
eleven with a kick from the 4O-yard line,
which fell short by about 10 yards. In
the last period Of the first half Prince
ton made several gains on line shifts,
but after several plays of this nature
the Navy eleven braced up and stopped
Princeton from making any further
gains through the lines. The half closed
with neither side scoring. In the second
half Capt. Dalton, of the Navy boys,
made several lengthy punts ranging from
20 to 90 yards. Dalton looks to be as
good as any kicker on any of this years
elepens.
While the result of to-day's game can
not be taken as a source upon which the
strength Of either team can be based,
owing to the soft condition of the field.
it does show, however. that the Annapo-
lis boys put up a strong defense, while
