OFFICERS NOT GUILTY OF
CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.

On the ground that needless cruel
ty has not been used in killing dogs
in the P~leasantville dog pound, May
or Adams acquitted Chief of Police
Krewson of the charge of cruelty to
animals which had been lodged
against him by S. P. c. A. Agent B.
George Ulizio. Similar warrants
against Mayor Adams and the dog
catcher were withdrawn.
Agent Ulizio testified that Krewson
had shot at a dog three times in the
pound before killing it and he claim
ed that this was needless cruelty.
Several other witnesses supported his
charges. Krewson, while admitting
that he had shot at the animal three
times, denied that needless cruelty
had been exhibited in dispatching the
dog.
City Solicitor Weeks advanced the
argument that the statutes give the
city the power to catch dogs on the
street and to kill them. He claimed
that Krewson was but exercising the
duties of his office.

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that
Contain Mercury.

as mercury will surely destroy the sense of
smell and completely derange the whole sys-
tenn when entering it through the mucous
surfaces. Such articles should never be used
except on prescriptions from reputable phys
icians, as the damage they will do is ten fold
to the good you can possibly derive from
them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, o., contains
no mercury and is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system. In buying Halls Catarrh

 Hinkey, however, has not resign as head coach"
 |lthough the statemen is officially De that MT. Hinkey has not re- bed and will not resign as head ch, it is understood that Capt.

 Hinkey Not to Resign.
 Coach Hinkey, it is understood, has a three-year contract at Yale, which will not run out for another year. and the statement that he will not resign as head coach, indicates that he will continue to retain his posi- tion with the coaching staff.
 Yale News Comment.
 The Yale News ommenting edi- torially on the change, under the caption. The Football Situation," says this morning:
 Tn 1910 the Yale football team was defeated by West Point to 8, played scoreless tie against Van derbilt, and was defeated by Brown 21 to o. In the one week between the Brown game and the Princeton game the team was virtually reor- ganized. An almost impregnable de- fense and an entirely new offensive was built up. Princeton was defeat ed to 3, and the Harvard team, rec ognized as the best team that had represented Harvard in many years was held 0 to o.
 Tt is doubtful if any team stands higher in the esteem of Yale men than the team of 1910. Tn the face of an adverse season, fighting against l tremendous odds, they did what no football expert deemed possible. To their unconquerable spirit homage l will always be paid, but to the body l of graduate coaches who come back i at that time, and really made victory 1 possible, credit is likewise due. They l made any sacrifice necessary to help Yale, and they gave gladly all that :; they knew to save her from defeat. i "The 1915 team stands in just the l same crisis today and it is going to l be met in the same way. Following a defeat last year by Harvard, which set new record in Yale defeats, they have stumbled along thus far winning l but three out of six games, and one of these by a one-point margin. Phy- sically the squad in above the aver age, and we believe absolutely that the spirit of the men was never finer. They simply don't know how to play football. They have been taught plays, i offensive and defensive, but they have 1 not been taught how to execute them. 1 In the days when Yale was the 1 acknowledged leader in football it was fundam entals that primarily made her great. Yale out-charged out-blocked, out-tackled her oppon- ents. Today Yale is being beaten at her own game. She is not playing, Yale football.
 The present coaching system has been accorded the loyal support that 1 Yale undergraduates traditionally | give to the men selected to coach their teams. They rely upon the su- perior judgment of the graduates and the undergraduate captain in choos- 1 ing them, and they realize that their part in helping to build up a winning 1 system Is to back up these men, to support them in every way possible and above all, to refrain from criti- 1 cism. Whether or not this blind con- fidence, this unquestioned support is

PAWNEES WIN EASILY.
New Haven Eleven Proves No Match
 For Local Gridiron Warriors.

The Pawnees of this city defeated the Watersides of New Haven at Traut's field yesterday afternoon by the score of 55 to 0. There was a good sized crowd in attendance. The wis itors were no match for the local team, ahd after the early moments of the game, there was no doubt con- cerning the final outcome. The New Haven team outweighed the Pawnees but in speed and physical condition, they were not able to touch the home crowd. Andrews, Vic Larson, Schroeder and Scharff, were the bright lig1,ts for the Pawnees and Lynch and c. Contois starred for the New Haven team. P. Butler also played well for the visitors.

Princeton vS. Harvard.

In the old days Princeton was ac- customed to beating Harvard at will. Beating Harvard was one of the soft est Nassau assignments each year. But that procedure changed with the advent of Haughton-and a regular system. Since Haughton arrived Princeton has bagged one victory-in 1911-but the last three campaigns have turned the Tiger upside down. Now, after three-year wait, or rather after a four-year wait, Princeton next Saturday will take another drive al the thick, red line, bouyed up by a g1 owing hope.

 As for any dividing line, or letting down the bars, if summer baseball is allowed it must be wide open affair The halfway stuff only leads to un- ending trouble.
 Luck takes queer turns. The luckiest thing that ever happened to Michigan was her absence from Har- wards schedule this fall.
 If Yale could bag Al Sharpe, the so- called Big Three balance would be esta blished upon a better basis than it ever was. Sharpe now seems to be : the only man in sight to hoist the Blue out of anguish and sorrow, but prying Sharpe away from Cornell is said to be something else again.
