september Morn played return
engagement the the Murray last night.
The Impression made here earlier in
the season was good enough to war
rant the return of the play before a
large house last night. The musical
comedy is full of catchy music and
bright dialogue, and seems to be the
kind Of amusement many persons
want to see. The music is tuneful,
the costuming bright and effective. A
pretentious scenic equipment adds
much and taken as a whole "Septem-
Der Morn is a musical comedy of high
order.

new YORK WANTS
TO SEE FOOTBALL
At POLO GROUNDS
City Invites Teams From
Schools Without Stadiums
to Play Big Contests at
Giants Lot.
BY FRANK G. MENkE.

NEW YORK, Nov. SITS almost
lime that some of the football man
Agers awakened to the fact that it
might be a good business proposition
10 stage one of their big games in the
Polo grounds in New York.
New York is football mad. Since
Columbia quit footballing hereabOuts
New York hasn't had a big annual
game in its own confines. Whenever
New York wants to see football
game 1t has to go out of town.
Last year the DartmOuthCarlisle
game was staged here and it drew a
big crowd. 1t was a money-making
proposition for both teams. This year
only one game was scheduled for this
rty-the Cornell-Brown game. 1t
Grew about eight thousand. That's not
large crowd. but it's a larger crowd
that such game would have drawn in
Providence or in ithaca
Needs Good Teams.
The crowd at the COrnell-BroWn
game would have been around twenty
thousand had either team been in the
top-notch class at the time they played.
But both were something on the order
of tail-enders Both had been beaten,
and both had poor records. The TACT
that eight thousand persons separated
themselves from about fifteen thou-
sand dollars to see these teams bat
Ting indicates that a twenty thousand
urowd-probab bly, larger one-Would
turn out for game between two big
eastern elevens, or between big east
ern and big western eleven.
The Polo grounds can accommodate
thirty eight thousand. It's something
of a cinch bet that if a NOtre Dame
Dartmouth game or a Michigan-Dart-
mouth game had been staged there
early this year the park would have
been damned.
Schools Erect Stadiums.
Princeton, Yale and Harvard used to
play their big games in New York.
That was in the days before either OF
these universities had big stadiums of
their own. The big Three" with their
new stands can accommodate greater
crowds than can the Polo grounds,
and of course. they will play all their
big games in their own Stadiums.
But the Polo grounds can accommo-
date a larger crowd than can the
stands of Dartmouth, Pennsylvania,
Carlisle Cornell. NOtre Dame and some
Of the other top-notch teams. There
fore, it seems to us that the managers
of the football teams that represent
these colleges might make master
stroke by staging one of their annual
games here.
John 3. Foster. secretary OF the New
York Giants, which owns the Polo
grounds is attempting to secure two
big games for the Polo grounds as an
annual fixture.

PEOPLE OF CURIOUS CUSTOMS

Waile civiliz d MAJ uH RS Intense
ly frosa cold fget every winter, the
L~aplander livirg in the far north o.
Europe, has no such trouble. A trav
eler writes: "Thlir boots are also
made of reinde r skin, and are worn,
verX large and the toes are pointed
andS curve upward. so as TO be easily
slipped into their Xxi. The Lapp usu-
ally fills his boots half full with a pc
culiar green grass, into which he
thrusts his naked foot: he then packs
the boots full wi h more grass. tucks
the ends of his trousers inside and
binds them tightly round with many
turns of a brightly braid With
these precautions they never suffer
from cold feet, and chilblains, corns
or such like civilized complaints are
an unknown horror to them.
Concerning othsf customs the same
writer says: The Lapps are essen
TALLY a nomadic race, and spend most
of their lives wandering fancy free
among the wild and glorious scenery
of their nothern home However, at
times no doubt the stiffness OF the fro.
zen mountains become too still and
they turn their herds and start toward
their nearest meeting place. Twice
a year they hold these general gath
erings-at Easter and midsummer
when they congregate and hold a gen
eral fair. 1t is on these occasions
that they celebrate their N~ddings
and funerals. The revelrios last only
about ten days, but many marriages
take place between couples who per
haps have never met previously.
"As soon as a Lapp can afford to
buy enough reindeer for himself he
leaves the parental tent. takes a wife
and roams away wherever his heart
or reindeer dictates. There are
nc social distinctions in Lapland
Should a man have no reindeer, OF
possibly have lost what he had, he
travels with a rich man and helps
him tend the herd, but he lives and
feeds with them in the same tent. and
Is quite on a social equality. until he
can afford to start off with his own

BISMARCK HAD
GREAT PLANS
BELIEVED HE DESIRED TO OVER
THROW THE CONSTITUTION OF
GERMAN EMPIRE AND ABOLISH
SUFFRAGE IN ELECTIONS.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS,

Berlin. Jan. 3.-Bismarck planned to
overthrow the constitution Of the Ger
man Empire and abolished suffrage
in the Reichstag elections, according
to Professor Hans DelbrueCk the cele-
brated historian Of the University of
Berlin
In book just published the histo-
rian declares that this radical plan. to
which the Emperor William II refused
his assent, was the cause of the first
chanceIlors fall. The story, IN brief,
is as follows:
Bismarck. who had continuingly in
creasing difficulties IN working with
the Reichstag and finding maJorities
for the various policies had apparently
at the beginning Of the eighties. be-
come convinced that he would not be
able to govern permanently 18th 4
Reichstag elected according to the
constitution of the new empire and
began laying plans for its abolition.
AS a first step, he had the Federal
Council adopt a resolution declaring
that the German Empire was q free
federation Of princes and could be
dissolved by them at any time. With
this resolution In hand he was ready
for the Reichstag elected in 1887 In
which there was clear majority of
Socialists, Clercals and Radicals
against him. The ann-Socialist law.
enacted in 1878. which made virtual
criminals of socialists and their sym
pathizers and authorized martial law
in a town harbOring them, was to ex-
pire at the end Of 1887. unless re-
enacted by the ReiChstag. Delbrueck
asser+s that Bismarck, although he
could have secured the extension of
the law from the Reichstag. deliber-
ate1y refrained from serious effort to
this end and permitted the measure
to lapse. He counted, according to
Prof Delbrueck. that this Reichstag
would be dissolved. that the dissolu-
ton would be followed by rioting and
bIoodshed. and that the failure OF
parliament to re- enact the law osten-
sibly designed to cripple socialist agi-
Ia ton and disorder. would excite a
storm against the Reichstag, under
cover of which he could safely clip it's
wings.
With the people sufficiently alarmed
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1914-01-04

at street fighting. and other intima-
lions of mob rule, Bismarck planned
to have the Emperor announce that
he renounced the imperial crown.
With this announcement, however,
was to throw out an appeal TO the
reigning princes Of the German states
to renew the federation on the same
basis as before, except the provision
for the election of the ReichstaP upon
universal secret and direct ballot.
The universal franchise was TO be re-
tanned in principle, but with pro-
visions for open ballotinE, and that
persons adjudged by a court to be
guilty of revolutionary conduct" in
other words, the socialists, were to be
DISTINGUISHED.
With this plan matured Bismarck
approached the young emperor. The
latter refused absolutely to consider it
and the old chancellor retired.
DeIbrueck's statements are ques-
toned by the conservative press. but
have not been authorttatively denied
or disputed. and In other quarters
have been received with comment.
