Special Dispatch To The Star
RICHMOND, Va, October 1.-The foot
ball team representing the Maryland Agri-
cultural College evened up old scores
against the Richmond College eleven here
this afternoon, defeating the local insti-
tuition by 46 to o. The Farmers displayed
by far the superior brand of foot ball
from the start, and there was little ques-
ton that they would finish in the lead
before the game had been under way
three minutes.
1t was not much the wonderful ar
ticle of ball put up by the Maryland team
as it was the poor playing of the Rich
mOnd eleven which caused the One-sided
score. The defense displayed by the To-
cal team was SO wofully weak it was
possible for the visitors backs to gain
almost at will. either through the line or
around the end. Also, it was not so much
the strong defense which prevented kich-
mond from scoring as it was the abso-
lutte lack of anything which looked like
an effective Offense The back would go
into the line standing up, and whenever
an end run was tried the man with the
ball generally started out by himself, VITA
the result that he did not get very far
There were times during the game
when Richmond spurted and made fair
ly creditable gains. The work, though
was not consistent and 1t never stood the
least chance to cross the Farmers goal
line. On the contrary the work of the
defense was SO poor that the men in the
visitors backfield seldom found it diff
cult to register the required distance in

All Make Gains.

Every man in the Farmers backiield,
not only the regulars, but the sub quar-
tet. as we'll, made gains at will. ranging
from :; to 80 yards. Poor tackling was
one cause of this, the local men failing
to stop players in the open field, often
when they had the chance.
Loomis a former Washington Western
High lad, got into the game before II
had been going on more than three min
utes in place of Country Morris. The
youngster was given the ball on the first
play, and he ran 30 yards through Il
broken field for a touchdown. 1t was his
first time To carry ball in foot ball
game.
The work of the visiting backfield was
spectacular, though much of its play was
due to the ragged defense shown by the
Richmond men. Once Country Morris,
who returned to the game at the begin
ming of the second half. and played well,
caught a punt on his opponents 4O-yard
line and ran through the whole team for
a touchdown. Capt. Hoffecker twice got
away on long clever runs which produced
scores.
Practically whole second team was
sent into the game by the Marylanders
during the last few minutes of play. VIII
liams and Bowland being the only two
men to go through the contest. The sec
ond string men did some capable work,
and some of them showed ability above
the average. To show the real weakness
of the defense which faced the Farmers
1t might be mentioned that the back
field representing the Maryland school In
the last few minutes of play. made up
entirely of subs, had no more trouble
gaining ground than did the first string
players.
On the whole the Aggies put up a very
creditable exhibition for an early sea-
son game, Notwithstanding the fact that
a very weak eleven faced them.

In this match Brooke played one of the
best games of his career. He was unusu-
ally good on his iron shots. although both
his long and short game could hardly
have been improved upon. Davidson was
not in good form, as his medal score OF
eighty-seven would indicate. This was
the third successive defeat that Brooke
has administered to him.

THE DAYS OF ST. MARTIN
By MARY INGE HosKINs

The most wonderful season Of the whole year is now upon us-the quiet, solemn days of Indian summer. The whole world is steeped in dreams and the brew is fragrant with hopes yet to be erystalizod
 It Is the ripe time of nature, but it takes death to bring the fullness of frui- ton, so the old summer in dying is giv ing forth the hest of all. Garner the grain, house the mellowing fruit. for a danger signal has been sounded by Mother Nature, who has done her best,
 The first hint of coming winter has given a crisp snap to the air that pre- sages hoar frost, and dropping leaves but as one swallow never made spring, neither does the first tang of cold make the winter. The brave old summer is
 oath to say farewell, so after the first touch of frost she returns for a final baptism of beauty 10 the old world, over which she regned from the springtide to the coming of the golden autumn day, reluctant to yield the scepter to other hands. So. she comes back to us with a magnificent pageantry of gorgeous coloring, to remind tho world that sum- mer favors are not done. We salute theei O, Queenl Long live Summeri Welcome, | thrice welcome, the fragrance of purple violet, and long-stemmed rose. The swan song is beautiful in death, and the last rose of summer gives the sweetest frag- rance and challenges winter with an out burst of beauty. We are still loyal to the past and we bow In adoration be- fore the return of the brief haleyon days before winter closes the door forever to our dead and gone summer.
 This second coming of the season Is called Indian sammer. No scientist can solve the mystery of hay days, when the sun hangs like red ball of fire in the glowing west, and the distant noun tains are enshrouded in smoke that was never of flint or steel; when the prlokly chestnut burr opens as if by magic, cast ing satiny trophies to the earth, the product of years effort. When chloro- phyl paints the leaves and the ground is strewn with colors; when the rain for- gets to fall and the sky lends to the blue gentian portion of it's beauty; when the air Is an elixir and life Is worth the living.
 When our forefathers came across tho seas in the good ship Mayfower, they were unused to the Indian summer-and when the trees began to array them selves in the gorgeous colors of an In- dian princess, robing for the coming of her lord and master-and the touch of frost made the earth beautiful, they began hurried preparation for the long. bleak New England winter. The sage old In- dian chiefs smoked the long pipes and smiled at the premature efforts of the

strange white man, who had come as Deity in their midst. After awhile the Indians summer came-legend says 1t was at this time the Indian strung his well-bent bow and went forth to kill the deer. He sharpened his hunting knife for the well fatted bear before he went Into winter quarters. He smoked the slende legs of venison. dried the fish, and made ready for the winter-it was the In dians time for work, and thus 1t was called Indian summer
 Now. 1t is the season of rare beauty The white man Is no longer an untutored stranger, but he looks forward to thls season as the lingering aftermath of q summer filled with the fragrance of flow CT or the bitter taste of rue But tn, summer is nc more; we look toward the east. where the promise of coming win ter Is waiting. and the word Progress" is written in lettering of fire; we strap our sandals and glrd ourselves to com ing events. with the resolution to keep the camp fires of immortal achievements ever burning and reach the goal that lies ever beyond.

He has been seen proving around at different intervals since about August 1. However, little attention has been paid to him.
 The settlement is very much aroused over the matter. and for the fact that no men were around when he appeared was accounted for his not being captured. A posse Is bein gformed to go in search ot the negro and 1t is expected that when he is captured he will fill the descrip- ton. of a negro that Is wanted as an escaped convict from Banner mines The description furnished the sheriff this morning seems to measure up to the de- scription received by the sheriff only a few weeks past as an escape from the mines
