Tho Fordham team was scheduled for
its first scrlmmage OF the week yesterdn y
but Coach Wymard decided not to take
chances. The practice consisted of a long
rapid signal drill, followed by a half

that Dunn, Yule and Regain. the regular

last saturday the Maroon stars are still
sore and the line bruised Trainer Weber

Penn Begins study of Open Game.

PHILADELPHIA, oct. 2S.-Heretofore the
University OF Pennsylvania football team
mas had to rely almost entirely on fun
damental plays for its offence in all
games. as Coach Brooke was determined
that the men should learn the funda-
mental principles before he taught them
any OF the more Intricate plays. Last
night, at the usual blackboard talk, he
announced that the men were ready now
for the more difficult plays and exnlalned
few new formations for the forward
pass This afternoon two solid hours
were devoted to learning them.
In the scrlmmage at tho close OF the
AFTERNOON the varsity tried them out on
the long suffering scrubs with great sue

scrubs 10 yard line and did not fail once
to push the ball over in four downs The

by means of the new forward pass for

scrubs completely.

Followed Her Vanished Nest.


This story of a thrush that missed,
and caught it's train comes from Lima
vady, in Ulster, Ireland. The bird had
built its nest under a first-class car
rage Immediately over the steam heat
ing pipe, and Notwithstanding that the
carriage travelled between Limavady
and Londonderry, the nest contained
four eggs.
The institution of the summer serv-
ice of trains caused trouble. The car
riage left Londonderry in the evening
at 4:40 instead of 4:50, and when the
mother thrush, who had presumably
been on foraging expedition, re-
turned, she found carriage, nest and
eggs had disappeared. She was no
ticed at Londonderry in apparent dis
tress, and the station master apprised
Limavady of the circumstances and
asked the railway people there to look
out for the bird, suggesting that she
would probably arrive by the next
train. The bird duly arrived at Lima
vady either by train or air and re-
sumed her task of Matching the eggs.
The sympathetic railway officials
have decided to withdraw the carriage
from service pending the Matching of
the eggs.

HAD NO RATlONS TO SPARE
Good Reason Why Confederate Com

Prisoners Escape.

When, at Gaines Mill In 1862, the
9Th Texas captured two whole regi-
ments Of Union soldiers, the Texans
were all very proud of their achieve
ment. One of them has described an
amusing scene in connection with the
surrender.
When the Union Officers gave up
their swords to Col Upton, they were
so prompt In the duty that he was
compelled to lay down the frying pan
which he carried in the place OF a
sword and hold the weapons presented
in his arms.
Just then he noticed a commotion at
the far end of the captured regiments.
That was near the timber, and a squad
of the prisoners we're making an eff.
fort to pass by big John" Ferris OF
Company B, who stood there unaided,
endeavoring to intercept them.
Springing upon log, the armful of
swords dangling about in every direc.
ton, Upton shouted:
John Ferris, what are you trying to
do now"
81 am trying to keep these fellows
from escaping" yelled Big John.
Let them go, you fool" shouted
back Upton. WED rather fight than
feed them!"

ROME GLORIOUS CITY
As Remarkable in Its Climate as
Its Memorials.
Not Too Hot In Summer Ncr Too Cold
In Winter-Art Lovers of Every
Degree Can Find Solaee
Here.

London.-There are those who tell
us that Rome is glorious alike in it's
climate as in its memorials for all
the S65 days of the year. 1t is not as
certain Italian cities are, too hot in
the summer nor too cold in the winter,
but there can scarcely be a question
that it is at its brightest in the
spring. Florence has been called the
city Of flowers but Rome also has it's
floral charm, and happy are they to
whom it is given to enjoy the beauty
of its Seven Hills at this time of the
year. If the Gardens of Lucullus no
longer adorn the Pincio we still have
terrace upon terrace Of views Of I'M
speakable beauty.
The visitor to Rome perhaps makes
his first interest the interior of st.
Peters. The exterior will disappoint
him, for although the dome is higher
than our st. Pauls 1t is so thrown
back as to lack some of the distinc.
ton of our metropolitan cathedral, but
the interior of st. Peters will sur
pass all possible expectations. Here
is church the like of which In gor-
geousness and il extent is unsurpassed
in Christendom although some Of the
tombs of earlier popes may seem to
you to be too ornate. With an asser-
tiveness that is perhaps scarcely
Christian the church records on its
floor the relative sizes of other great
churches of the world, including st.
Pauls cathedral in London and Notre
Dame.
To the lover of sculpture a great
day is the visit that one pays to the
Vatican galleries, sees the LAGOON"
the Vatican Venus" and SO many
other treasures of worldwide fame. In
one private picture gallery in the
Palazzo Barberini you will see the
much talked-of Beatrice Cenci' by
Guido REM, but wherever you go in
Rome you will find wonderful works
of art that have been made the sub
| ject Of poem or Of story. Then the
ruins of an older Rome-the Rome
of the ancient world-how abundant
they are. w no l1dL SIduuS III lilo

The Palace of Nero again, is an in
spring monument, so also is the Col
umn of Trajan, the Coliseum, the Pan
theon, the Arch of Titus, the Baths of
Caracalla. But some of ones most
memorable hours will certainly be
spent on spring Afternoon wandering
about the Coliseum, where you will see
little lizards jumping from step to
step, for if the lion no longer holds its
place in these wonderful ruins the
lizard is there apparently to all eter-
nifty. Think again of the delightful
drive along the Via Appia to the cata-
combs of st. Calixtus, weird expert
ence. Scarcely less noteworthy in it's
morbidity is that famous chapel in
which the skulls and bones of innum-
cradle monks make up the archi,

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
At recent conference of federal
and state officials in charge of hog
cholera work the methods of applying
the cholera serum in practise we're
considered. There are two methods.
In one the serum alone is used, pro-
ducing immunity lasting from 80 to 80
days; in the other the virus of hog
cholera and the serum are injected
simultaneously-that is, virus at one
point and serum at another. This lat
ter is known as the simultaneous
method" and will produce active or
lasting immunity. If the serum used
in this simultaneous treatment is not
good, or if the mode of application is
faulty, disease may be set up in the
treated herd. For this reason it was
the general consensus of opinion at
the conference that the simultaneous
method should be used only by those
who have had special training, and it
was agreed that the ideal arrangement
would be to allow it's use only by fed
eral and state veterinary officers.
The serum-alone treatment, on the
other hand, may be given by anyone
without danger of causing hog cholera.
If the serum is good the farmer may
give it to his hogs without fear, pro-
vided it is administered in the proper
way. While it would no doubt be
best to have even the serum alone al
ways administered by skilled agent,
farmers may obtain good results if
proper care is used. The farmer
should remember that the serum-alone
treatment is very different from the
simultaneous treatment. The follow
ing advice regarding the use of serum
is offered for farmers who cannot OBJ
tain the services of skilled agent:
All serum cannot be depended upon
and farmers are cautioned against put
ting implicit confidence in a serum
merely because it is labeled "Anti-Hog.
Cholera" The serum must be pre-
pared right in order to protect hogs
Farmers should use every effort to get
q good reliable serum from the state
college or from a reliable dealer.
Anti-hog- cholera serum is most effec
tive when used as a preventive. II
will also cure large number of hogs
in the early stages of the disease. Il
is of much less value, however, fol
hogs that are visibly sick. The far
mer should make careful preparations

The glass should be allowed to cool
