SPECTACULAR SOCCER
GAME ENDS IN DRAW
Ex-Caledonians and Washington Reg
ulars Play Rafting Good Con-
test, Score, 3 to 3.

The ex-CaledonIans and the Washing
ton Regulars Soccer football teams
clashed yesterday afternoon at Rosedale
grounds in what proved to be one Of the
most spectacular games Of the season.
The ex-Caledonians started OF with
rush and carried the ball almost without
stop for a goal. The Washington Regu-
lars, thinking that they were up against
an easy proposition, did not get down TO
the proper play until this time, and then
they started and played the game in a
rush, and by the combination put forth
by Hodge, Greaves and Brown they were
able to make three goals in the first half.
1t was the second half that really made
the game. Like the opening Of the first
half. the ex-Caledonians, receiving their
second wind, started to play a fast game
and repeatedly the ball was carried to
the goal line of the Washington Regu-
lars, and with good passing of the ball
by Dlas, Maunder, Featherstone and Pc
trie, they were able to score two more
goals. thus tying the score. After the
score was tied 1t seemed as though
neither team could get the ball past the
backs Of the opposing team.

Petrograd. Nov. 2s-Yakof AikhaIi5Yit0
Miller, ayoung COsSack ensign Of Jew

exploits.
When war broke out he Joined an avia-
tion company as a volunteer. Though
absolutely without knowledge Of flying

He had been ordered to oil an engine.
Not knowing how this should be done,
Miller began to pour oil into the radiator.
The machine would not work and Miller
was put into the guardhouse. Gen. Rem

would be better for him to serve In the
trenches

Miller's first fighting distinction was
won near KOenigsberC. With twenty-eight
Cossacks he was sent on patrol duty.
Riding along the road they heard the
sound Of a mOtorcar and guessed IL was

They laid several logs across the road.

in the bushes. The motOrcar reached the
barricade and stopped. and Immediately q
machine gun opened fire on the bushes
in which the Cossacks were concealed.
Then Miller with his comrades ran close
up to the car and began to fire through
the slits in the machine. All the Ger
mans there. to the number OF eight. were
killed, and the Cossacks conveyed the
car to Gen. Rennenkampf. For this Mil

Dicky Webb sat up on the sand and
looked at the vanishing form OF Miss
Katrina Lake.
Katrina was not alone. Surrounding
her were several white-hanneled youths
of Dicky's general appearance. One ad-
mirer carried her parasol over her head.
another dangled her silken workbag, a
third bore her sweater coat. a fourth

nod.
II was unpleasant. to say the least!
Thus Dicky unused, while he rumpled his
haxsn hair into a frenzied mop and
stared resentfuIly after the naughty Miss
Lake and her attendant SWANS.
She's a heartless coquette!'' he NUT
tered between clenched teeth. mot
worth a serious thought" Still he sat
there staring out at sea, where white
sails fiickered in the sunshine and romp-
ing waves smacked the bathing floats to
perilous rocking.
Behind him to the left was the great
summer hotel: to the right stretched
miles OF sandy beach and heaped UP
bowlders. Beyond the first heap OF gray
powders Miss Lake sank gracefully TO
the sand and her young men reluctantly
gave up their booty.
Dicky shrugged his shoulders. turned
to a serious contemplation OF the sand
at his feet and gloomily wished that his
four weeks vacation were at an end.
But he had promised his mother and SIS
ter TO remain with them at Salt Beach
until the 1st OF September and that de-
sirable date was stiIl ten days of. And
he must see Katrina every day at break
fast, luncheon. and dinner on bathing
beach and promenade, and in the ball
room at night. And for some unknown
reason Katrina, who had been so endear-
ingly kind in the beginning. was snubbing
him most numerically nowadays.
Dlcky's sister came tripping down the
sand, unesCOrted. because her heart was
in the keeping of a hard-working young
broker. who escaped from the tolls of the
stockticker every Friday night to spend
the weekend with his sweetheart. So
Lena's love affairs having been settled
satisfactorily, she merely existed from
Monday till Friday night. and had plenty
of time between writing letters to her be-
loved to devote TO Dickys unfortunate
wooIng Of Miss Katrina Lake.
Lena Webb, who was fond OF Katrina
Lake, took in the situation at a glance;
passing OF Miss Lake from the hotel
piazza and had flown to her brothers
rescue.

manded.
''oh. nothing" sighed Dicky. gustily.
Rubbish" shifted Lena. 'I thought I
saw you with Katrina a few minutes
ago"
Dicky regarded her pityingly. mo. my
dear, you did not see me-" he said de-
liberately. You really should have your
eyes examined, Lena. What you did see
cavorting around Katrina were five
young idots instead of one. Your be-
loved brother has been thrown down
down-way down.
He punched the sand savagely as he
spoke.

breathlessly.
Dicky grew red around the ears. I've
never asked her." he admitted hotly.

DESCRIBES DoDGING SHELLS.
French Omcer Tells How to Avoid
Aerial Destroyer.

Paris. Nov. 26.-Dodging shells is de-
sCribed by a young infantry lieutenant
wounded near Verdun and now conva-
lescent here. as follows:
The German shell falls almost pers
pendicularly on the ground. digging a
big hole, sometimes a yard in depth. 1t
then bursts fountainwise. and almost at
right angles to the ground. You can
escape by fiinging yourself on the ground.
The fragments OF shell rise in an arch
above you. and If they strike you at all
only hit you on the return as they fall
back. The chief mortality caused by
them is among horses, which cannot be
made to lie down. The French melinite
shell, on the other hand, merely grazes
the soil, scoring a sort OF shallow fur
row in 1t. 1t then bursts in numerous
fragments. which NOV down everything
for 100 yards in front OF it."

CURTAIN DROPS ON
LIGHT HARNESS SEASON
Local Trctting and Pacing Comes to
a Close with Successful Meet at
ForestMlle Driving Park.

Forestvills Driving Parks farewell Of
fering to the racing season OF 1914, yes
terday afternoon, was the most graceful
tribute DR.. John E Sansbury has paid
the present year 10 the American trot-
ter and PAGER.
The day was an idea one. the track
was fast the crowd was present IN num-
bers TO applaud. the several attractions,
and every heat trotted and paced was for
blood and was a horse race. It was 4
day in which green trotters distinguished
themselves, and in which veterans Of the
trotting turf calamity sustained laurels
previously won.
The sport Of the afternoon began with
the race for colts. 1t comprised a field
of five youngsters, and. although the
two-year-old, John Bunny, and the four
money-each having won two heats
other youngsters in the field of five did
not disgrace their owners.
The three-yeear-old blind gelding, Dix
ie Bell, by Kushan. won the Class A
event over a good field. But there were
periods in the race when Frank Hayes
Bsrongale gelding promised to be his
master. He won the third heat in an
impressive way and gave assurance that,
with more turf experience, he will have
to be seriously reckoned with in all
future local events.
The Glass event brought together
such veterans as Black Patchen, Fob
r., and Buster Red. and the trio gave
some pleasing exhibitions of speed, the
season of the year considered. and the
other fact that neither Patchen nor
Bob r. were in condition for fast miles.
The first heat was negotiated by Black
Patchen in liz IL; the second by Bob
r in I'LL 1-2. and Black Patchen paced
the third heat in exactly the same
notch. Darkness intervened and the
money was divided as per summary.
Robert Browns Bette Brown, T. +.
Tippett's Billy D.. and Charles Light
bown's Rosa, in the race for young
sters, made a most excellent showing
for green colts with limited develop
ment. Two of the best racing prospects
owned today in Prince George County,
are John Bunny and the blind colt,
Dixie Bell.

the best known horsemen in the East,

LONDON GAYETY GONE.
Life Of Capital Changed by War
of Powers.

London. Nov. 26.-social customs in
London have almost completely changed
owing to the exigencIes of war, and the
darkening OF the metropolis. The fash
ionable night clubs have gone their way
unmOurned; even the afteT-theater sup
per is usually relegated to the privacy of
the home. although the theateTs have
advanced the times OF their evening per-
formances. But perhaps the greatest
change OF all for well-tO-do people is in
dress. Women dine at the smartest res
taurants in high toilette and men in
morning coats. and the same costume IS
seen in the stalls at the theateTs. II
would, Of course. be too much to say
that the national habit Of changing into
evening dress Is in abeyance, but GER
talnly in public places where thousands
Of people were to be seen so attiTed, there
are now only hundreds. and the change
has added to the gloom already cast over
restaurants by the reduced lighting re-
quirements.

nadians, but their numbers will fill up
later. The present lot are largely Eng
lish-born public school boys, and old SOL
diers for the most part. Most OF the
Canadians like to fight on a horse, and
