Saturdays Game.
The game Saturday night Is the key
to the championship situation OF
North Dakota. If the agricultural COL
lege wins, they will probably be tied
with Fargo college. II the latter team
wins, they will have the undisputed
title according to percentages. The dope
is practically even IN the two quints.
Both have defeated all other corners,
and Fargo college only defeated the A.
C. by two points in the A. c. gymn-
asium. Fargo college will entertain
on the home floor this game, having a
slight advantage.

The title will also include the inter-
scholastic championship Of Minneso-
ia and North Dakota. This is now held
by Moorhead normal, who have been
defeated by the A. G. and F. G.
Thus it will be seen that Saturdays
game between the two old rivals will
untangle the complication.
Both teams are right on edge, ready
for a fierce battle, each anxious to
bring home the big title for their
school. It is understood chat speicula-

favor of Fargo college, but there is no
reason why this should be the case.
There is no doubt but that the farm

anxious and are putting the men

In the World Of Sport
Review OF State
Intercollegiate
Basketball for 1914

review Of the North Dakota Inter-
coiligate basketball season discloses
some interesting and almost startling
facts.
The first lap of the North Dakota
season is over, the second one start
ing Saturday night in the big cham
pionship battle between the A. C. and
Fargo college in the Fargo college
! gymnasium.
In the first lap Fargo college had
the supremacy, but the second half of
the season remains. in which may oc-
cur many surprises. In the coming
games are involved the championship
Of North Dakota, South Dakota and
the interscholastic and college
championships of Minnesota.
These may appear rather pretentious
on the part Of the North Dakota
teams, but nevertheless the following
facts sEbstantiate the claims.
The Standing of the Teams.
Wahpeton science has practically
been eliminated, North Dakota uni
versity has been defeated by every
team in the state once, making the
prospects poor for them. The North
Dakota Agricultural college has a fav-
-orable fighting chance through their
game with Fargo college Saturday.
Fargo college stands u~ndefeated, at
the present time heading the list of
prospective champions. .-
North Dakota University.
The university has defeated only
Wahpeton science thus far. Among
the teams vanquished by them how
ever are: st. Olaf, st. Cloud, Grand
Forks Y. M. G. A. twice, Huron, S. D.
and Minnesota university. This is
about the most peculiar record ever
shown by an athletic organization in
the state. They have been defeated
by Carleton, and Luther college,
DEBORAH, la.
N. D. Agricultural College.
The A. C. quint has walloped
every team in North Dakota, except
Fargo college. They have also de-
feated Yankton, South Dakota, Huron
college, st. Olaf and Carleton.
Fargo College.
The sky-pilots under Coach Watkins
have a clean record of victories in
eleven successive games. It is a
significant fact that Fargo college has
not met defeat this year, either in
football Or basketball. Outside the
conference Fargo college has defeated
Moorhead normal twice, Concordia

In "Cabiria," the colossal photo

many battles, the ferocity and des-

with mingled awe. and horror, awe at
the massive agencies of destruction

There is the destruction of the

"Old Homestead Will Be
Offering at the Newark
During Entire Next Week

Those who love sweet music and
those who enjoy the scene of new
mown hay can have their tastes graf
flied by visit to 1.-The Old Home
stead" at the Newark Theatre next
week. This charming play has been
before the public for twenty eight
years. and is now on its twenty ninth
annual tour. .s
1t is the same simple story of rural
life in New England that it was away
back in 1885, when it was first pro-
duced as a finished drama at the Bos-
ton Theatre. And for eleven years
prior to that Mr.. Thompson had been
presenting a play called Joshua
Whitcom D." in which he portrayed the
sturdy old farmer, "Uncle josh" And
even before that time Mr. Thompson
had given for some years in the va
riety halls a sketch having Uncle
Josh as its central figure.
So, taking it altogether, the char
acter of the kindly New England
farmer, Uncle Josh, has been before
the theatre going public for nearly
forty years.
The company appearing at the New
ark next week is practically the
original, under the personal direction
of Mr.. Frank Thompson, The must
cal features are the same, including
the famous double male quartet and
the grand choir of twenty voices in
the famous double male quartet and
the celebrated Grace Church scene.

Broadway Jones' the central
character, as well as the title of the

Chinda Not Informed Troops
Had Been Landed in China

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.-viscount
Chlnda, the Japanese ambassador,
said he was without official advices of.
the landing of Japanese troops on.
Chinese territory today and had not
discussed the subject with Secretary
Bryan while at the state department.
He called to learn if the American
embassy at Berlin had made any
progress in securing the release of
fifty Japanese subjects reported de-
tanned in Germany
American officials took the view
that, inasmuch as China had not
made formal protest and had an
nounced that she would not oppose
the Japanese troops, there was not
likely to be any diplomatic compli-
cations involving the United States.
