Of the mystery has yet been given.

ter-in-law.
Young Ault shot his wife and then
himself after writing several letters
to his family.
For a few hours after dinner tho
young couple started writing farewell
letters to their friends. They wrote to
Esther Ault. tho bridegroom sister.
and to his father: They also wrote to
George c. Ault, of Nwark.
Other letters were addressed to the
Hotel Ingleterre in Havana, to Miss
Bertha Tichnor, Syracuse, and Charles
L. Ingles, Of Mariovao. Cuba.
In one Of these letters the bride

Harvard Has Lost Its Old Time Power --Line Is Weak
And Crimson Backied Can't Get Start 1t Did in Ii
Loss of An-American
Forwards Worries
Haughton
~ WALTER TRUMeuLL.


NEW YORK. Oct. 27.-The
larger football elevens have
new come to that point in their de-
velopment when II Is possible to
form some general idea of their
strength or weakness. II Is evident,
for example. that the Harvard
eleven. like the Harvard eight. has
lost the power that made II supreme
In its branch of sport for SO many
years.
On the theory that might makes
right. the Crimson has displayed
more or less arrogance In football
matters during the past six seasons.
This Gridiron dictatorship is apt to
suffer a decided setback. for It looks
as II this might be lean year for
Haughton's men.
Harvard has played FIVE games
this season, In three Of which II
has been scored upon and in one Of
which. and that one the most i'm
portant, II has been beaten. The
Crimson had some close calls last
year. but when the danger came the
necessary punch was always there.
II II not 80 now. In at least two of
the games that Harvard has won
Haughton's players had all the
breaks In the luck and were at times
absolutely outplayed.
We do not mean to say that Har-
ward II q really weak eleven. No
eleven that has any material at all,
let alone . Mahan. will turn out
weak under the great coaching sys
tenn at Cambridge. II does look
weak. however, by comparison with
teams which have gone before. 1t
was not as good q team as Cornell,
and we doubt whether 1t il rs pow
erful q team AZ Princeton.
The Crimson attack is not yet at
its height. Even so, Mahan Is apt
to prove less formidable behind the
present line. than behind the line Of
q year ago. This was partially
shown BY his punting on Saturday.
Last year he could pretty much take
his time. Now, time and again, he
must hurry 70 get his kick away.
The same thing applies to his run
ming with the bal Hardwick isn't
there to put an end out OF the play
and then frequently go on and put
out q man In the secondary defense.
Even Mahan can't get. away IL
enough men come sitting through on
him.
On the defense, Pennock Is no
1Sheep present to do three mems
work. or Trumbull. with his mar.
vclous faculty for diagnosing plays.
Neither Is Bradlee. the greatest de-
fensive back Of decade, there to
