Terrific Fight at AuberiVe.

Bordeaux, Oct. is p. m.-The de-
feat of $1,000 Prussian guards who
attacked the French center Septem-
ber 26 is described today in the
Petit Gionde. AS soon as news of the
German advance was received,
French cavalry was sent to hold the
enemy at Auberive, to give the artil-
lery and infantry time to come up
from SOuain, a place near Auberive.
But while the French dragons were
preparing to defend Auberive a bri-
gade of Deaths Head Hussars APP
preaching the village came across
the vineyards and fields with the in
tention of surprising the French ar
tillery on the march.
1t was a critical moment. The
French dragons were two miles
ahead and the infantry two miles be-
hind the gunners, who were in dam
ger of being sabred across their
guns. The Hussars were only three,
quarters of a mile away, galloping
furiously In two minutes the guns
were numbered and lined up along
the roads. The enemy then was only
500 yards away and the command
could be heard to prepare to charge
the guns.
In the charge the Prussian cayairy
gathered speed with every yard.
When they were 200 yards away the
French gunners aimed and there was
n pf
smoke the artillery men could see the
enemy's horses rearing and officers
trying vainly to rally the broken
lines.
A second time the battery hurled
death into the doomed brigade. A
great silence succeeded the thunder
of hoofs and the shouting of men.
Two thousand horsemen lay as if
struck by lightning. Here and there
wounded horse struggled to shake
himself clear from the heaped dead.
But the artilierymen did not gaze
long on this scene of carnage. They
limbered their guns and ratified off
to aid the dragons, who were hard
pressed and falling back along the
| highway. The guns were a welcome
relief. This time the struggle was
more even. The German quick-firers
returned the fire with interest, but
the French infantry arrived and de-
ployed among the vines, bugle rang
| out and their bayonets flashed in the
sun as they dashed forward.
Without cavalry to aid it, the Prus-
sian guard was obliged to fall back.
A battalion OF Zouaves glided be-
hind and occupied the valley OF the
| Suippes, threatening to place the
guard between two fires. A regi-
ment of grenadiers sacrificed itself
to cover the retreat of the German
columns on Rheims. Five times the
glenadiers hurled themselves against
the French. They were repulsed
every time, and after the fifth charge
only one section was left, handful
of men surrounding the flag.
Then first one then two then ten
of the grenadiers threw down their
arms. But their sacrifice had not
been useless, for it enabled the col
umn to get safely under the guns OF
the forts at Berru and Nogent TAB

One of the prettiest plays seen on
an eastern gridiron this year was at
tempted by Michigan against Harvard.
1t failed, but the fact that it failed was
a bit of luck for Harvard.
Michigan had the ball. Splawn
dropped back about IL or Is feet and
signaled for the ball. He got it. At
the moment the ball was passed the
Michigan right end ran into Harvard
territory and wheeled around in po-
sition to catch forward pass. Splawn
showed back his arm, with the ball in
his hand, as though he were about to
throw it.
In the meantime, Maulbetsch who
had been playing to right of Splawn,
suddenly jumped forward and took the
ball from Splawn's outstretched hand,
just as it seemed that Splawn was
about to throw it to the Michigan
right end.
Maulbetsch raced toward Harvard's
right end and had taken about four
steps when the Michigan left end, run
ming toward him, took the ball from
him. For fraction of second, it
looked as if Michigan with its trick
play would make big gain, but luck

BILLIARD GAME is IN FAVOR
Home and Church Have Come to Look
Upon Pastime as Moral UpIift for
Youth-Temperance Essential.

Clean living is the big essential to
good billiards. There is no other game
that demands as steady a nerve, as
clear an eye, or as unerring judgment
as that of the cue and ivory balls. At
the same time there is no other branch
of sport that is less crowded and Of
fers so liberal remuneration to its
professional followers. Just at pres
ent billiards is more in favor than ever
before This appears to be due chiefly
to the advent of the younger element
in the game. The worlds titles are
held by a mere boy and youngsters
who yet lack years of reaching their
majority are already in the field after
the honors now held by Willie Hoppe.
1t has not been so very long ago
that billiards was frowned upon by
well-meaning parents and denounced
by clergymen. That time is in wide
contrast to the present time when
the younger element is not only urged
to play the game but many thousands
of homes in this country are provided
with smaller-than-regulation tables
where the children of the households
are taught the first principles of this

Michigan end received the ball when
he tripped over some Harvard men
who were directly in front of him-the
same Harvard men who originally had
rushed forward to tackle Splawn and
who didn't know where the ball was
until the Michigan end fell over them.
The action was SO fast that it be-
wildered not only the spectators but
the Crimson warriors as well. 1t
failed to succeed only because of i'll
luck. 1t was the only real trick at

that when he plunges at the line his

with the beef boil a small carrot, one
onion, two slices of turnip and a leaf
or two of cabbage until they are ten

the meat simmer until all the water
has cooked away, allowing the meat to
brown well, turning it frequently. Then
