overcame the lead, and finished up the
game with a 30-to-13 victory. A goal

that half by the Hilltoppers. and by
University of Maryland.

Collihower's excellent defensive work
were the brightest spots In the home

exception OF one. were scored by these

GALLAUDET LOSES
ROUGH AND TUMBLE
GAME TO LOYOLA
Contest Filled With Many
Fouls, Penalties, and
Protests.

Filled from beginning to end with
fouls. penalties. and protests, the bas-
ketbsll game which Loyola won from
Gallaudet College by IS to 81 was one
Of the toughest ana .hafdest-contested
games seen in the Kendall Green gym
nasium.
Hardly had the sound OF the referees
whistle announcing the beginning OF the
game died away before Pippin, the
speedy guard Of the Monumental City
Quint, Gagged the ball from the floor, and
this started the scoring for the visitors
Cook and Peters dropped the ball in the
basket for two more scores for the win
ners, and then Roller put one over for
Gallaudet. From this time on each
team scored frequently, the game being
halted at intervals for the settlement OF
protests and 'affixing OF penalties. Each
team was in the lead by several points
during the contest, but the Buff and
Blue took final decline which could
not be overcome.
For the local team, Arras and Roller
did the fastest work. These players ex-
celled In team work, while Cook and
Classen did good goal tossing. Some Of
the best dribbling seen this year In
Washington was performed by Captain
Cook. the fast guard of the Loyola
team.

Two well contested games of basket
ball were seen at the Y. M. G. A. last
night when the Regulars and Stalwarts

scores. Regulars defeated Ingrams by
80 to 10, and Stalwarts won from Me-
MORALS by % to 10. The last two named

seen between the younger teams.
In the second game, Ingram was COM
pletely outplayed. The Regulars started
scoring early in the game. getting 10
goals to Ingram's 3 in the first half.
One of the most sensational plays Of
this contest was q difficult field goal

in the middle of Dolphin and Union
Strait. One of the members of the
expedition then approached the newly
discovered people and after a narrow
escape of being knitted by one of the
party. friendly negotiations were un.
dertaken.
There were thirty-nine members OF
the group, small part of the A-Ku-Li-
A-KatTag- Mutt. According to the ex.
plorers neither they nor their fore
fathers had ever seen a white man.
The winter home Of these people is In
the middle Of the strait north OF Cape
Bexley, but In the summer they hunt
inland south of the cape.
1t was discovered by members Of
the expedition that OF the one thous-
and Eskimos on the two sides of Coro-
nation Gulf and Dolphin and Union
straits, not more than twenty men had
ever seen a white man, thus repre-
senting less contact with the white
race than the people OF any part OF
the explored Arctic.
The Cape Parry region, full OF game
sixty years ago. is now gameless and
deserted and the Copper Mine region
has not 10 per cent. of the number of

GOLD is MINED BY QUAKES
Volcanic EruptIons Often Open Vast
Mineral Deposits In the
Earth.

Nome, Alaska.-"Its q poor earth.
quake that does nobody any good" is
the new and stagtling version of the
old proverb Its an III wind that
blows nobody any good"
The earthquake disturbances OF
September and October In southwest
ern Alaska have brought to the sur.
face scores of gold mines. which will
add millions Of dollars to the wealth
Of the people of the territory.
The manner In which the earth.
quake operates to bring a potential
gold mine In sight is. says the Detroit
Free Press, as follows: when the
trembling motion OF the earth's crust
becomes exceedingly violent 1t pro.
dures deep cracks in the surface. The
earthquake. 1t 10 we'll known, rolls
over the surface of the earth in Ger.
tain direction. Just as wave rolls
over the surface of the ocean.
The earthquake, however, is not
working In a fluid medium, and its
action upon the more stiff and brittle
crust OF the earth produces many
kinds Of fractures and rearrange
ments Of the superficial strata. One
portion OF layer of rock is lifted up
and placed upon another. What was
once the surface of the earth is buried
deep out of sight, and the rock that
has been buried deep out Of sight for
ages is brought to light.
That side of crack In the earth
from which the pressure is coming Ia
very apt to be lifted up and pushed
over the opposite side. In other cases
the gold-bearing lode lies concealed
under the surface soil of a hillside
and the earthquake shakes away the
gold. exposing the quartz.
The gold-bearing lead In the newly
fractured rock is lifted up and expos.
ed few feet above the ground. The
miner has only to stretch forth his
pick and strike the auriferous rock.
Thus. through an Intervention OF the
benevolent earthquake, gold is dlscov
cred which might never have been
found. and. in any case, an expendi
lure of many thousands of dollars In
mining machinery is avoided.

In May. Stefansson crossed over to

as North European people One of
the Alaskan Eskimo guides said in
commenting upon their appearance.
"They are not Eskimo; they are

SAVE THEIR WAGES

need by prisoners committed to work
houses and the state prison, the re-
port, referring only to the latter, says
that "but five per cent. of the men
in state prison have families they
have left in need of state aid"
This is because the prisoners as a
whole are men of rowing characters,
who have no settled home and who.
accordingly, have no one dependent
upon them.
In this connection" the report con-
tinues. "a law enacted in 1909 is of
special interest. 1t provides for state
aid for dependent families of men in
the state prison. Families are now be-
ing paid as high as SIS month under
this humane 1909 law"
Commenting on the recently estab-
iished prison for the criminal insane
at st. Peter the report says there are
ten prisoners at saltwater SO ad-
vanced in insanity they are unable to
do work. while there are thirty others
who are able to work part OF the time.
Then 1t adds:
1T is doubtless true that there are a
sufficient number of criminal insane
at saltwater and other state institu-
lions to fill completely another such
building as now houses this class OF
unfortunates at st. Peter"
Conditions, from a sanitary and
Clearly standpoint, are excellent at
the institution. the report says, add
ing:
In spite Of the fact that the build
ings and general plant are old and out
OF date, the best is made of every dis
advantage--a fact that has given War
den Wolfer for many years the repu-
tation Of being unexcalled."
