signed his contract to manage the

Princeton wallops Scrubs.


PRINCETON, Sept. 26.-In fast
thirty minute scrimmage on the
Princeton football field yesterday aft
ernoon the Tigers gave their first ex-
Inhibition of real football this season.
1t was an encouraging contrast to
the sorry display of the last few
days, for Improvement was evident
in every department of play. Sig
nails ran off more smoothly, there was
less interference with each other and
the varsity attacks showed q power
that was equally evident in the de-
Tense of the line.
The approach of the opening game
with Rutgers tomorrow made every
man fight for a position, and there
was little dragging in the half hour
of scrimmage Three touchdowns
were rolled upon the substitutes,
who were unable to make a single
consistent stand against the varsity.
Captain Baker ran back punts and
lodged around the sends in fine style.
Strict and Doolittle found the holes
in centre and tackled for consistent
gains by line bucking and carried
over touchdown in the first five
minutes of play. Strict. Doolittle and
Emmons were responsible for carry
ing the ball across the goal for the
three scores.

Despite this fact, Coach Maloney is

Whether or not the Branch Brokers
have this lot is attracting droves
of the scholastic dopesters to the
City Field. Captain Dempsey's in
ability to render service in the open
ing game will cost the Barringerites
dearly, as the leader of the Ridge
street cohorts was the foremost of
the hooters last fall on the schol-
astic gridiron. Broadhead has placed
him on the substitute list, but in all
probability he will not get into the
contest at all, as he has failed to
put in an appearance this season on
the field Van Ness, who alternated
with Sutton last fall at end, will
hold down the right flank, while
Sliker, the new recruit, who is
speedy though light, has been named
to play the other extreme. Pete
Schaff will start the second year of
his football experience at right tackle
while the similar position on the left
side will be taken by Mausert, a
green player, who has attracted
Broadhead's attention because of his

is Noble at right guard. Fits, from

BY THE SCISSORS
EATING THEIR WORDS.
(From the Chicago News.)

(From the Chicago News.)
Some authors have been compelled
to destroy their books in singularly
unpleasant fashion. In 1868 Philip
pus 0ldenburger, a German jurist,
published description of his travels
through Germany. a passage in this
offended his liege lord, and Olien-
burger was soundly flogged and then
ordered to eat a copy of his book. 1t
was only duo-decimo, but he found
the task beyond his powers, and after
five pages pleaded successfully for a
remission
When Bernard the Great, duke of
Saxony, learned that he was criticised
in some pamphlets, he had the au-
thor arrested. and after putting him
in the pillory for an hour, with one of
the Objectionable works between his
teeth, made him swallow it.
Cases have also been known of vol
untary book eating. Agler de Bus
beeq states that the Tartars used to
eat books in order to acquire know
ledge, this being the only way in
which they were capable of assimilat-
ing printed matter

which publishes an article entitled,
Better Babies in Five States" This
article, which is accompanied by won
derful photographs of prize winning
babies, contains an account of baby
shows recently held in Vermont, Tex
as, Ohio, New Jersey and Arkansas.
AT these baby shows of the new kind
children are judged for their health
and physical development rather
than for their beauty. Following is
an extract from the October Compan-
ion:
THE entire country is talking Bet
ter Babies.
"Since the first of August, county
fairs have been interesting progressive
farmers, their wives their sisters,
their sons and their daughters in the
most important crop that can be raised
Babies Prizes of money medals,
and certificates of award have been
distributed to convince parents that
a healthy, happy, intelligent baby is
worth more to the farm. the home,
and the nation than pedigreed stock
and fancy grain.
Rural districts, small towns and
county seats are spreading the gospel
of Better Babies.
And now the great state fairs are
throwing open their gates and bidding
city and county parents enter to study
the finest crop the state produces
Babies! The number of babies con-
testing for prizes runs into the thous-
ands.
Mothers and fathers who enter
| their babies in spirit of competition
for prizes are learning that the prizes
are only an unimportant incident.
Young men and women who saunter
into the Better Babies Contest to see
the fun leave in deep thought. For
the first time, perhaps, they are see
ing parenthood as a sacred obligation,
blessed opportunity. Thinking ply
sicians, who take part in the scientif-
ic judging of babies, are talking on
the rights of children to a fair start
in life, to proper environment at
home and in school. City officials
who attend the contests to deliver
flowery addresses and distribute prizes
are learning what the city should do
and could do for its children.
1.-THE Better Babies idea Is i'm
mensely popular, but it is only just
starting; it is estimated that next
year at least twice as many contests
will be held; at least twice as many
babies will be scientifically judged.
Five thousand physicians in various
parts of the country are now interest
ed in the work, realizing it is an in
valuable factor in preventive medi-
cine. The Better Babies Contest
teaches parents and municipal author
tiles not only how to cure ills but how
to prevent them"
