ALUMNI IS LOOKING
 FOR SWEET REVENGE
Three Drills Held This Week and Hard One Scheduled for
 Sunday Morning.

While the Hartford Alumni has been doing lots of shouting and adopting a slogan of two from New Britain" the members of the local alumni have been saying little and doing lots. For a slogan the Hardware City men are content with the significant word: : Revenge" The management has ar ranged for a special car to take the players to Hartford at o'clock Thanksgiving Day and as the game will not be called until 10 o'clock they will have ample time to dress. ? This week there have been thre hard practices with full team. The New Britain line will average about 1S0 pounds and the end positions and back field will be unusually fast Frank Stingle will hold down one end and Fenn Nourse, star end of the Wesleyan college team, will hold down the other. Henry Flanagan of Col gate. will play quarterback and will practice with the team next Wednes- day night upon his arrival here. The line will be further augmented by the addition of Raymond James, of Storrs college. James is a powerful man and has a stonewall defense. Other men selected will be more than able to hold their own with the Hartford has, beens.
 There will be no practice tonight but tomorrow night the men will meet in the High school gym at o'clock for drill. The most important practice of the season however, will be held at 10 o'clock Sunday morning in Hart's lot. The men will be put through a stiff course in running, falling on the ball etc, and a modified scrimmage will take place.
 The backfield of the locals presents unusual power. Flanagan is more than the equal of any man on the Hartford team and in Johnnie" Mar tin, "Roddie" Chamberlain, "Dute" Parker and others the backfield will be speedy and strong.

  ytufe Pile bbing Pittsfield, 6 to ] Fement and Fans,

kthe first period before a goal was Hniade, Quigley took the ball from the center of the floor to within the shadow of the enemy's goal all by himself and slipped it past Harper for the first score. It was d clever piece of work on Quigleys part. It was followed by another tally for New Britain when Jean drove the ball from the center plunk into the cur tains. It was one of those old-time Jean drives that travelled so fast the goal guardian of the Pittstelds could not see it. The fans gave a howl of delight when the period ended with New Britain in the lead. It was their first experience of the season of seeing the home team ahead.
 Fred Lincoln stalled around liar per's cage early in the second period and made a pretty hook on pass. Fourteen seconds later Pierce made the only goal of the night for his team. With only a few seconds to play in this period Lincoln snapped another past Harper.
 It was all New Britain in the third period. Pittsfield abandoned it's pass ing game to a certain extent and de- pended on luck, Loxon, Cameron and Harold making desperate drives that Blount kicked away as fast as they arrived. Quigley succeeded in chap eroning the ball past Harper after four minutes of play and nine seconds later Lincoln did the same thing. The game ended with Pittsfeld fighting to the last ditch but being driven back by Jean and Coggeshall.

CRUEL WAR GOES ON
 SAYS GEN. WEECHMAN
Charles Murphy ExpIodes Mine
 in FedcraS' Camp.

According to an announcement from Cincinnati yesterday Charles P. Taft, principal stockholder of the Chicago National league club, has broken off all negotiations with Charles Weeghman, the Federal league packer of the Chicago team for the sale of the Cubs. MT. Taft refused to extend until December 1 an option that had been granted more than two weeks ago to the Windy City restaurateur. Further confirmation of the split was fur nished by Charles w. Murphy, form CT president of the Cubs, upon his re- turn to Chicago from a conference with Weeghman, Taft and August Hermann in Cincinnati.
 It was Murphy who threw the first obstacles in the way of Weeghman's purchase of the Cubs. Weeghman wished to move this old established club from the West Side grounds to the new Federal league park of Chi cago's North Side. Murphy, who has half interest in the park at the west side, interposed objection. While he had disposed of his interests in the club to Mr. Taft the latter had not paid for the stock it is said. Murphy demanded cash with interest at 5 per cent since the transfer of his stock to the Cincinnati publisher for $485, 900 in notes. To appease Chub- by Charlie MT. Taft depended upon a cash transaction with Weeghman. The latter evidently was not able to raise the necessary capital before the expiration of his option.
 Weeghman, who appeared very much piqued over the refusal of MT. Taft to extend the option until the first of December, told his friends in Chicago yesterday that the turndown would mean a continuation of the Federal league war to the death of one or the other faction. In the east this unexpected move of the National league is interpreted as a. direct slap at the Gilmore packers. The con- viction grows that the negotiation with Weeghman was nothing more than strategy to determine the finan- cial strength of the enemy. August Hermann, who conducted business

M'CANN LAYING PLANS.
Is Already Schcming to Capture Pen-
 nant for New London.

Manager Gene McCann of the New London club has returned to that city from Omaha, where he attended the annual convention of the National as- sociation. Manager McCann is op- timistic over the outlook for minor league ball during the coming sea- son and says that he has most of his plans for the coming year already mapped out. He has strings out for several new players, whose names will be made public as fast as they sign contracts, and says that as soon as he can clean up the accumulated mail waiting his attention that he will get down to business.
 The lower salary limit, Manager McCann thinks, will not slow down the grade of ball in this league, though it will make the managers lot much harder. Class E ball play CTS will have to be developed in the future, instead of grabbing off major league discards, in his opinion.

Yale to Use Same Lineup.

New Haven, Nov. l9.--An hours and forty-five minutes of hard scrim- mage in the new bowl made up the final hard drill of the Yale football team before the Harvard game.
 The Yale lineup in the Harvard game as announced by Head Coach Frank Hinkey will be the same as that used against the Tigers. N--
 Several of the regulars spent yes-I terday resting. Aleck Wilson, tho veteran quarterback, did not report because of a lame knee. Stillman spent the time running up and down the side lines. His lameness has near ly disappeared and he is expected to start the game Saturday. Walden, whose right arm was badly twisted Tuesday, took part in a scrimmage. but his arm bothered him consider ably .e y
 The regulars won the scrimmage from the scrubs, 14 to 2. Ainsworth made the first varsity touchdown after he and LcGore had advanced the ball thirty yards. while Scovil ran eighty yards for the second touch down. Ainsworth kicked the goals in- stead of LeGore and tailed on each of his tries. For the scrubs, Ovitt

TO DAY IN PUGIL1ST1C ANNALS.

1S94-Owen Zeigler and Jack Me Auliffe boxed 30 rounds to a draw at Coney Island. This was the last bout in which McAuliffe engaged, except for the friendly four-round exhibition with George Lavigne at Madison Square Garden in 1896. when Jack formally retired and handed over tho lightweight title to the Saginaw Kid. McAuliffe was then going back, as his exhibition with Zeigler proved. He was more interested in the race track than in the ring, but he had sense enough to quit while the quit last opponent, was a native of Penn sylVania, and became amateur light weight champion of American in 1891, after which he became a pro- fessional. In 1894 he defeated Stan ton Albeit, the British champion, and the next, year he again whipped Abbott in 20 Hounds at Baltimore anI fought a 25-rdund draw with Jack Eyerhardt at NEw Orleans.

 William Ashley Sunday will be the Erecipient of birthday congratulations 9today, for he reached this mundane Rspheroid just fifty-one years ago, November 19, 1863, at Ames, Iowa. Eff old Cap Anson hadn't been born in Marshalltown, Ia.,--and he was the first white child to be brought by the stork to that now flourishing city Billy Sunday might now be truck driver or millionaire. The Cap leader of the immortal Chicago White Stockings, ever entertained fond ness for his native town, and on one of his visits to Marshalltown, away back in 1883, he saw young feller named Billy Sunday playing on an amateur club. More for sentiment than anything else, Cap'n decided to give the Sunday chap a try-out in the rapid baseball company, and took him to Chicago. Billy played center field for the White Stockings, and did It so nicely that he was kept on the payroll, at, an increasing salary, for five seasons. Then he went over to Pittsburg. where he played three an nuns, and finally wound up his dia- mond career in Philadelphia, which claimed him only a year. Billy's ex- perience as a National League play CT extended from 1883 to 1890.
 AS a fielder and swatter Billy was "the goods," but it was in base running that really shone. He was by far the swiftest man of his day, and he has probably had no superior in the game. He set up a record Tor circling the bases in fourteen seconds, which stood until 1910, when Looert,

DIR. BOWLING IN NEW IBERIA

On Thursday morning DR.. Oscar
Bowling, President of the State
Board of Health visited this City
and made a personal inspection
of few places before departing
for Opelousas where he was
called for a like purpose. I'm,
fortunately the Doctor did not
meet Mayor Fontelieu as he had
been informed that His Honor was
out of town which was mis-
take. However, after a hurried
visit to different public places he
handed to us telegram he had
sent to the Office of the Attorney
General asking for his interpreta-
ton of the law relative to New
Iberia and the State Board of
Health.
His report and telegram was as

GOVERNORS INSPECTION OF
MODEL ROAD.

During his visit to New Iberia
last Wednesday, Governor Hall,
accompanied by DR.. II. A. King
and Messrs. o. ID. Romero and
w. Il. Burke of the Police jury
rode over the entire length OF
the Model Road leading to jean
erette. This highway builted
under the supervision of the State
Highway Department was com
plcted some time ago and ac-
cepted from the contractor who
is obligated to maintain it for
period of five years, This the
contractor has failed to do, thus
far and as a consequence, sevc-
raj ruts have formed which
threaten to become serious ii not
given immediate attention. After
going over the whole matter, his
ENcellency told the gentlemen
of the Jury that he would in
yestigate the contract fully upon
his return to Baton Rouge and
that he would insist on the main
tenance provision Of the contract.
His advise however was, that
pending the adjustment of things,
that the Parish officials should
not neglect to make necessary
repairs to this very expensive
road and permit it to 60 to decay.
This the Police Jury appreciate
and have set to work to better
conditions. We trust that the
Governors efforts to enforce the
contract will bear fruit and that
the contractor will finally be
forced to deliver to iberia Parish
a Model Road in it's true sense.
