DARTMOUTH WANTS STADIUM
Graduates Favor Big Athletic Fiel
 at Boston.

Dartmouth. forced by the. need of a larger city than Hanover, N. H., to hold football games, is the latest of the col leges to look around for large city centrally located as a place for most of the home games on her football schedule, and Boston is likely to be the city selected if Faculty. objection can be overcome. It has been the custom of Dartmouth to play it's home games on the gridiron at the little New Hamp- shire city, and in the past this plan has been successful because of the big guarantee received from Harvard for the annual game with the Crimson in Boston and now Dartmouth has been dropped from the Harvard schedule, and the Athletic Association has been having considerable difficulty in fin ancin the team
 At Hanover the Dartmouth team has very small number of people to draw upon for it's home crowds, outside of the student body, and this has necessi- tated a plan of playing most of the games away from home. Even with this plan much difficulty has been ex- perienced in fiancinG the Green eleven In addition there is difficulty of having the team do considerable travelling in playing it's schedule, and some of the football experts at the New Hampshire institution believe that this has handi- capped the playing ability of the team concrete stadium somewhere in the Hub in a somewhat central location where all the so-called home games
 can be played. Graduates of the in stitution who have investigated this plan agree that there is every hopt
 of successfully carrying out the project | but an informal canvass of the col 1 lege authorities has disclosed the fac
 that the plan if formally proposed
 might meet with considerable opposi | ton.
 1 the part of the college authorities i graduates are going ahead investigat | ing the plan, and will probably sub
 init some. proposal to the officials il

 Formerly weight below the head was an indispensable quality in a football player" he continued. Now the col lege football player is a man of aver age weight, active body and specially active mind, and the lessons the game teaches, lessons of self sacrifice, obe- dience and above all, preparedness, are being recognized on the campus as we'll as in the final game in each college contest"

tended the whole width Of the build
ing except for a door which opened
presumably on the stairway leading
to the upper stories.
Godfrey's face was flaming with ex-

door gently-gently. The door was
locked. He stopped and applied an y

Of a mans voice talking excitedly.

but I could make nothing of what 1t
was saying. Then suddenly I realized
that it was speaking in French. And
yet 1t was not Armand's voice-of that
I was certain.
Fronting us was a narrow stair
mounting steeply to the story over

hesitation Godfrey sat down on the

quietly. motioning us to do the same.
Simmonds obeyed phlegmatically. but
my hands were trembling.

stair, revolver In hand. I followed
them, but | confess my knee were
knocking together. for there was some
thing weird and chilling in that voice
going Oh and on. 1t sounded like the
voice of a mailman. There was some
thing about 1t Mt once ferocious and
triumphant.
Godfrey paused an instant Mt the

he moved cautiously forward toward

seemed to come. m%otioning us at the

in beside 1t. the driver spoke to the
horses. and the van rolled slowly away
up the enu
then mounted into the cab which was
waiting, waved a last farewell to me
and followed after the van. We
watched it until 1t turned westward at
the first cross street
"Mr. Godfrey's occupation will be
gone" said Parks, with a little laugh.
HE has fairly lived with that cabinet
for the past three or four days. He
was here last night for quite awhile"
81 was sure he would be here today"
l added.
The next instant l was jumping
down the steps two at a time. for a
cab in which two men were sitting
came down the avenu and rolled slow
ly around the corner in the direction
taken by the van. One Of its occu-
pants turned toward me and waved
his hand. and | recognized lin God
frey.
1t was with a certain vexation OF
spirit that l found myself racing after
Godfrey's cab. for 1 realized that be
had not been entirely frank with me.
Certainly he had dropped no hint of
his Intention to follow Armand.
And 1t suddenly dawned upon me
that even did not know the cabinets
destination. NJ. Armand had volun
teered no Information.
l reached the corner in time to see
the van turn nortbward into Sixth av-
enue. At Sixteenth street 1t turned
westward again. and then northward
into Seventh avenue.
What could Armand be doing in this
part Of the town? l asked myself. Did
he propose to leave that priceless cab
met in this dingy quarter? And then
1 paused abruptly and slipped into an
archway. for the van had stopped some
distance ahead and was backing up to
the curb.
Looking out discreetly. I saw the cab
containing Armand stop also. and that
gentleman alighted and paid the driv-
er. The other cab ratified On at a
good pace and disappeared up the ave
nut. Then the W porters lifted out
the cabinet and. with Armand show
ing them the way, carried it into the
building before which the van had
stopped.
They were gone perhaps i've min
utes, from which | argued that they
were carrying 1t upstairs; then they
r~eappeared. with Armand accompany
ing them. He tipped them and went
out also to tip the driver of the van.
Then the porters climbed aboard. and
1t ratified away out Of sight. Armand
stood for a moment on the step. look

Then he drew back and mo-
toned us forward.
In the middle of the floor stood the
Boule cabinet, and before it. with his
pack to the door. stood u man ripping
savagely away the strips Of burlap in
which 1t had zen wrapped. talking
to himself the while in a sort of saw
age singsong and pausing from mo-
ment to moment to glance at a hud
died bundle lying on the floor against
the opposite wall. For a time | could
not make out what this bundle was.
Then. straining my eyes. | saw that 1t
was the body Of a man. wrapped
round and round In some weblike
fabric.
And as l stared at him I,caught the
glitter Of his eyes as he watched the
man working at the cabinet-a glitter
not to be m~istaken-the same glitter
which had SO frightened me once be-
fore. What was the meaning OF this
ferocious scene?
My heart leaped into my tn oat, for
Godfrey. with a sharp cry Of "Stop!"
sprang to his feet, and dashed into the
ROOM, Simmonds at his heels.
I suppose two seconds elapsed before
I reached the threshold, and l STOPPED

steady myself.
There was the cabinet with its wrap
pings torn away, but the figure on the
floor had disappeared. and before an
open doorway into another room stood
a man. a giant Of a man. his hands
above his head. his face working with
fear and rage. while Godfrey. his lips
curling into a hooking smile. pressed
a pistol against his breast.
Then, as l stood there staring. 1t
seemed to me that there vas a sort Of
flicker in the air above the mans head.
and he screamed shrilly.
"Death!" he shrieked. Death"
For one dreadful instant longer he
stood there motionless: then. with a
strangled cry. he pitched forward heav-
