NEW HAVEN, oct. l6.-With a heavy
rain already twelve hours old railing ana
more rain in sight indications Tonight
are that Notre Dame and Yale will play
to-morrow's game In a sea OF mud. Coach
Frank Hinkey would not comment on the
probable effect of the wet weather on his
team. but Coach Jesse Harper of Notre
Dame said tonight that the rain will
be to the advantage OF Yale. yale
will do considerable backward passing
and the rain will not interfere with that,
while II will hamper our forward passes
on which we depend" Harper said.
Despite the rain the Yale team went
through an hour and a half practice on
the freshman field this afternoon. \
punting exercise followed snappy signal
drill Aleck Wilson was back at quarter
back Ainsworth and Knowles played the
halves and Legore was at fullback. They
will start tomorrow with veteran line
To-day proved Hinkey good weather
prophet. For the past two days brief
practice in passing water soaked ball
has been held. II was unnecessary to
wet the ball to-day. for water stood three
inches deep everywhere. Tn. ball was
creased to make It doubly slippery.
The Notre Dame squad, consisting OF
twenty-six men, kept indoors to-day
They held an hours practice In the Yale
baseball cage, where things went well In
the passing and signal work.
There is little betting tonight on the
game, although Notre Dame brought
several thousand dollars along. The visit
tors ask odds, which Yale men do not
care to give.

VESTS SON TELLS A e'foRY
Humorous "Reminiscences OF the Fa-
nous Campaign of 1872 and Its
Convention.

Alec Vest, son of the late Senator
Vest of Missouri, is raconteur almost
as noted in his home state as was his
famous father.
There used to be an old fellow,
John M. Sneed, who lived out in the
country a short distance from Sedalia,
Nc. SAFE NJ. Vest at the Willard. Gle
was an old-fashioned bourbon Demo-
crat Of the EXTREMIST type. He really
gloried in his craftsmanship, and was
the sort of man who in drawing his
will adjured his sons to continue voting
the Democratic ticket. Captain Sneed
he had never risen above the rank
of captain-was intensely interested
in 1872 in the result of the Democratic
national convention, which, / think,
was held in Baltimore, and nominated
Horace Greeley. 1t was in that year
that the Beecher-Tilton trial was held
and the newspapers everywhere were
filled with accounts of the proceedings.
In those days news of the election re-
turns or the outcome of political con-
ventions was not as easily obtainable
as today. Old Captain Sneed, how
ever, would not go to bed on the night
the balloting began at the Democratic
convention until he got some word
from Baltimore. He seated himself on
his front porch and waited for those
who had been in town to come along.
He stopped everybody and asked what
they knew about the Democratic nomi-
nees for president None could tell
him anything until long about mid
night a party of roysterers came up
the road singing and shouting. The
captain asked if they had any news
from the convention.
Eyes, said one of the most jovial
members of the party, 'Beecher and
Tilton were nominated"
"The old man was aghast for mo-
ment, but he quickly recovered and
said
"'Well they are both good men; it
will make a strong ticket Wash

EASY TO TELL REAL GENIUS
Man With Capacity for Infinite Toll
is the One So Gloriousiy
Endowed

Genius is always nine parts gift
of God A gifted person may learn
something at school, but he becomes
great, as Ruskin says, only when he
develops that peculiar capacity within
himself which he can learn from no.
body.
How is one to know whether he is a
genius or not, whether those strivings
within him are the ferment of medi-
ocrity or the first push of superior
talent? The woods are full of young
people who think they can write
stories or poems. or paint, or sing, or
perform upon musical instruments, or
act. How are they to know if they
be real naturpl-born geniuses?
Perhaps the best test is this. A
real genius usually has such passion
for his work that no power on earth
can keep him from it. In other words,
Carlyle's dictum holds true, that gen.
Jus is the capacity for infinite toll. If
you are Cod-endowed one, therefore,
you will know it by your unconquer-
able joy and courage. If you are a
second-rater you will give up, and be
easily turned away into money-mak-
ing.

Various Explanations Given of Scotch
Name For New Years Eve.
1t is natural with New Years even
more than with other holidays that a
large part of the observance should
fall upon the eve rather than upon
the day. In no other festival or fast
is any single moment so important as
the moment of midnight that marks
the change from the 3lst of December
to the LIST of January. That is the
turning point in the celebration. the
thing itself which is celebrated. The
early ceremonies lead IN TO it. and
the later ones begin with it.

cember should be called Hogmanay IN
Scotland. In the north of England this
word is Hagmena. and in two or
three other countries there are names

DO NOT CHANGE THE BREEDS
Some Goods Cows May Be Obtained,
But There WIN r Lack Of Uni.
formity OF production.

To change breeds every now and
then is poor practice. One should
be very careful before the particular
breed is chosen. To use a Holstein
sire one year in order to obtain a
large flow of milk, a Guernsey sire an
other year to secure richness OF milk,
and Shorthorn sire the next time to
obtain more beef in the offspring, is
the wrong principle to employ in the
breeding and raising Of good cows.
Undoubtedly some good COWS will be
obtained. in the herd from such meth
DDS of procedure, but there will be no
uniformity of size, form, appearance
and production, and the owner has no
assurance of what he is going to get
in the future. 1t is case of too many
in the mixture, and it is guess work
as to which one will come to the top.
First, select the breed with great
care, then stick to it. If a mistake is
made the first time in obtaining poor
specimens, and poor producers, then
rectify the mistake as soon as possible
by selecting the right kind of a sire
belonging to the same breed to head
the herd, or by selling the animals al
ready bought, and purchasing better in
dividuals belonging to the same breed.
1t is usually safer to try to improve
within the same breed than it is to
improve by changing to different
breed. There are good individuals and
good strains within any Of the breeds
intended for particular purpose.
