The defeat of the Purdue eleven at
the hands of Chicago Saturday recalls
the fact that not since 1894 has Purdue
defeated the University of Chicago on
the gridiron. The game was then in its
infancy at Chicago, while Purdue had

In 1901 they tied it up, but eveg since
then the Maroon aggregation has been a
victor. From 1901 until 1910 the scores
were entirely one sided, but the Purdue

much better during the past three sea-
sons.

MANY UPSETS OCCUR
ON EASTERN FIELDS
Princeton Vanqushed BY Dartmouth and Yale Held Scorees
BY Washington and Jefferson-Army Triumphs BY
Narrow Margin-Harvard Fulfills Expecta-
tons- Michigan Aggies Again victors

New York. october 26.-Footban played
under the weather conditions, that pre-
vailed throughout the eastern states Sat
turday is of comparatively little value
for purposes of comparison when the
leading university elevens are under con-
sideration. Almost without exception the
games were played on ain-drenched grid
irons.
1t was one of the worst football days
encountered by teams of this section in
several years, and upset carefully planned
gridiron campaigns of more than one
coach.
BY all the rules of football. II was a
day when weight should have counted as
the margin of victory. but there were
glaring exceptions. Dartmouth's defeat of
Princeton by a to 0 score was a strik-
ing example. Although pounds lighter,
Dartmouth completely outplayed the
Tiger team, and the score failed to show
the superiority of the New Hampshire
segregation. Both extensively and de-
fensively the Green had the edge on the
Orange and Black and there is no reason
for believing that upon dry field victory
would have swung the other way.
Dartmouth was quick to penetrate the
weakness of the center of Prnceton's
line on defense. On the theory that mis-
cry loves company, Princeton and Yale
have a fraternal feeling today, the Ellis
having failed just as dismally to distin-
suish themselves against Washington and
Jefferson as did Princeton against Dart
mouth. The blue was outplayed in Of
fensive tactics, and but for four flashes
of the strong defense, which has been
shown at New Haven all season, would
have been scored upon and probably de-
feated
Harvard Outclasses Rivals
The result verified the belief that Yale
has yet to develop an attack that can
win from her most formidable foe. In six
games the Ellis, while not scored upon,
have scored but 95 points in 326 minutes
of play. AT present Yale and Princeton
appear to be about evenly matched, con-
sidered broadly, but neither is a finished
nor exceptionally promising football
eleven Compared to Harvard, which each
will meet in the next few weeks, the
Tigers and Ellis apparently are outclassed.

RELIC OF PREHISTORIC AGE
Discovery In Germany Has Aroused
AntiquarIans In All Parts
OF the World.

The bones of a monster believed to
be 10000 years old were recently dis
covered In the garden of a mansion
at P~erivale, near Ealing. Germany.
This recent find has led to the belief
that a skull of curious formation, UNI
earthed twelve years ago, Is that of .
rhinoceros of the Pleistocene period.
and probably about 5000 years old.
Authorities have pronounced the head
to be that of a prehistoric monster.
When she excavations were made
there were also discovered parts OF q
Roman wall, several human skulls,
coins and spears. The Yhinoceros'
skull was found underneath a shed
which has been standing for 300
years, and the foundations of which
consisted of concrete to a consider.
able depth. 1t was In the course of
removing this concrete and digging
some yards below that the discovery
was made. AS little importance was
attached to 1t, the skull was given
to the gardener, who handed 1t over
to his children as a plaything. Tho
lower jaw, teeth, and legs of the ami
NAL have now been found. The skull
itself is about 36 inches In length,
and seems to be water worn. The
leg bones are short and thick, and
this goes to support the theory that
the animal was a ~rhinoceros.

SOMETIMES NEED ISOLATION
Best Of Human Qualities Frequently
Come to the Front Under Such
circumstances.

Many great human qualities come
to their best In a life of comparative
isolation. A big tree, an oak or an elm,
standing out In an open field has a
toughness of fiber, a spread of boughs
and roundness of shape that are never
seen In q tree that stands in the
woods. So people get individuality by
being much alone. They become self
reliant, more relying on themselves.
They gain clear opinions by thinking
things yer, and thinking them out to
their necessary conclusion. They ac-
Quire infiexibility of purpose by fac
ing obstacles and conquering them.
The pioneers Of our country and the
fathers of the republic we're such men.
The projectors of great undertakings
carried through triumphantly have &C
Quired their power in this way. The
country Is the natural nursery of such
qualities. People are wanted on the
farms to raise corn and grow stock
for the markets; but they are wanted
there far mare for the training of man.
hood and womanhood in moral worth,
In religious sensibility, in all the traits
Of a strong, upright personality. In the
future as never heretofore, our cities,
with their multiplying wealth and Law
ish luxury, are likely to need the coun-
try for that steady renewal of their
better life which shall keep them from
relaxing into ~sensuality and sinking
into decay.
