Announce WEDDING
after FIVE Years

After successfully guarding their
secret for five years William Nc
Clurg and Miss Jennie Derbyshire,
both of Chester, ushered in the new
year by announcing their marriage
which was performed in this city five
years ago by the Rev. George L..
Wolfe.
Mrs. Mary J. Derbyshire. the
brides mother, has issued formal
announcements of the wedding and
Mr.. and Mrs. McClurg are now re
ceiying congratulations. Mrs. Nc
Clurg, then Miss Jennie Derbyshire'
was a student in the Upland High
school and Mr.. McClurg was just
starting out on a business career
when their marriage took place, and
fearing that the announcement OF
their wedding then might in some
way handicap the career Of the
bridegroom, the couple decided to
keen the marriage secret for a time.

TODAY'S MOVES
IN THE WAR zone:
What They MEAN
CONTINUED from Page ~

inferior in equipment should have been
sent to relieve the Turkish situation in
the Sinai peninsula is significant. 1t
means the Constantinople authorities
have decided to consider the Egyptian
secondary to operations against Russia
in the Caucasus. The pick OF the army
is not going south to Egypt, and money
is not being spent to re-establish Iur-
keys lost sovereignty of the Nile.
Otherwise the Germans at COnstantinople
would have seen to it that the incident
at Jerusalem couldn't have happened.
1t is wholly to the interest of the
Germans to persuade the Turks to
give their attention to the Caucasian
campaign. Primarily Germany wants
to use her Mohammedan ally to harry
the Slavs: while the Turks them
selves are far more interested in
seizing Egypt than in fighting amid
the mountains Of the Caucasus. I'm
doubtedly this difference of opinion
has been serious and has caused much
dissension at Constantinople.
The Germans, however, appear to
have had their way and to have es-
tablished the fact that the prime
Turkish objective must be the Cau-
casus and not Egypt. Enver Pasha,
the Turkish minister of war, and
virtual dictator of the Ottoman
/ Empire, has gone to the Caucasian
/ front, indicating the importance at
tributed to the eastern operations
Following his departure, Djamal
| Pasha now is reported assassinated
at Jerusalem, suggesting the inferior
conditions prevailing in the south.
The two facts are complementary
They demonstrate that German infiu
ences are becoming paramount at Con
stantinople, even over the influences OF
the Turks themselves. This is a stu
alto probably unique in Mohammedar
history. 1t also emphasizes the extent
TO which German ideals exercised oI
Enver Pasha when at an impressionabl'
age he was Turkeys military attach'
at Berlin. The Germans arc now reap
ing the benefit of this chance occurrence
which is proving OF such historic I'M
Iportance.

COACH tDALY ANNOUNCES
 WEST POINTS LINEUP
Varsity Breaks Up Scrubs Armed with Navy Formations.

West Point, N. Y, Nov. 23- A hard scrimrnage and lengthy defensive drill, as well as a half hour spent in running through signals, featuredN the work of the Army eleven today. The scrubs, now termed the Navy eleven" were armed with Navy plays and were snt against the varsity during the rough work. There was much encour- agement from the varsity's fine de- fensfve work today, the scrubs being unable to, make any. consistent. gains with their new formations. ~
 Head Coach Daiys today announced tbe Arny'sF lineup as it will face the Navy on Saturday in New York It isi. Redfield, left end; Jones' left tackle: O'Hare, left guard; sMcEwan, center; Meacham, right guard; Weyand, right tackle; zNeyland, right end; Gerhardt, quarterback; Ford, left rhalfback; Oli- phant, right halfback, and Coffin, full back. 7e
 Coffin will very likely do the Army's bunting. There may be. change in this lineup, Coach Daly said, but it is hardly. probable now unless the heavy drill planned for tomorrow in capacitates someone. The decision to play ,gRedffeld in preference. to Brit ton or Fully at left end, was some what of a surprise to the watchers, although it is admitted that Redf1eld is the speediest of the end men and a Sures tackler

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS DULL.
Trading Was Perfunctory and Super
 ficiaI All Day.

New York, Nov. 23.f- Trading in stocks today was perfunctorye and su- -perffcial from start to finish. Deal .ings diminished to the meagre total of 93S,000 shares and except for some of the more speculative specia1ties which have recently figured spromin- ently, price changes were insignificant, or at least unimportant A steady tone was maintained throughout, but this was due more to the absence of pressure than to any actual demand.
 Automobile shares rose to 4 points. war issues of the class including Cru cible Gteel Lackawanna Steel. Ameri- can Can anG Baldwin Locomotive gained almost as muGh and stocks of no particular description showed vari- able gains of one to three points. Unit ed States Steel f1uctuated within the extremely narrow range of half a point and Bethlehem Steel was again utterly Ignored, not single sale being record ed.
 Coppers were steady, but failed to make further response to the increased demand for the metal. In the final dealings Central Leather and Amerf- can Hide and Leather preferred rose systematically.
 Canadian Pacific's rise of 1-2 to 186 was almost the only noteworthy movement in the rails. although Union Pacific, Northern Pacific, Erie and the new and Old Rock Island issues show ed signs of moderate accumulation. Canadian lost much of it's gain before the dull close.
 In the way of general ne0s, the foreign demand for steel was among the chiefly constructive features. Ac- cording to trade authorities the ques- tion of price is no longer a consider ation. while domestic consumers are willing to pay premiums for what they can get.
 Further large receipts of gold from England were reported in payment of munitions and the Bank of England released another large amount of the precious metal for shipment to this country. Exchange on London work ed back to the highest quotation in many weeks. demand sterling selling as high as 4.07 IA with other markets frmer in sympathy. Remittances of Scandinavian exchange were especial ly large.

 WELkER cAcHRANY EASY.
Showing of Young Iowan Was Some
 what Disappointing.

New York. Nov. 23.-willie Hoppe of New YIc.k had no difficulty tonight in defending his title as billiard balk line champion against Wellxer Coch- ran, the young Iowan in the deciding contest of the 1S.2 handicap billiard tournament. Cochran was refeated by 800 to 21S, his handicap being 800 points.
 Cochran's showing was somewhat of a. disappointment as he had been able to defeat all the other billiard stars in the tournament. Hoppe made victory sure in the second inning when he ran up 39S points without stopping for the record high run of the turnament Hopes average was .55 5-9. Coch- rams high run was and his average ? 2-2S.
 In the afternoon contest George Sutton defeated Koji Yamada 400 to 252. The high runs and averages were: Sutton 101, Is 10-26. Yamada 299 1S-26.
 The final standing was Hoppe, Coch- ran, Sutton, George Slosson. Yamada, and Joseph Mayer. Hoppe won all his five games and Mayer lost his five. z

BROWN ELEVEN WILL PLAY
 AT CALIFORNIAN FESTIVAL.
Providence College Selected to Meet
 University of Washington.

Brown has been selected as the Eastern college to meet the University of Washington on the football gridiron at Pasadena, Cal, on New Years day, and the first game ever played by dis tnctively coast universities is sure to prove of widespread interest The game will provide the athletic feature Of Pasadena's famous Tournament of Roses, now come to be recognized as the biggest and most spectacular fete Tn tho country. It will come as a fit ting climax to the festivities. and is already being boomed by the many hundreds of eastern college men liv- ing in California.
 ment association after negotiations with Harvard, Yale and Cornell gave no prospect of those colleges accept ing and Seward A. Simons of Los Angeles, Cal, first vice president of the A. A: U. came east to arrange Faunces, Director of Athletics Mar vel. and Head Coach Robinson of Brown, and after thoroughly going over ~Ze proposition a satisfactory agreement was arrived at.
 The University of Washington has a particularly strong eleven this year, and has had no trouble in winning from other coast teams. Brown has an eleven of great strength and will unQuestionably uphold the high stand ard of eastern football in a satisfac- try manner. Brown developed a great offensive strength in the latter part of the season, in the Yale and Harvard games rushing the ball for over 400 yards to their opponents less than 200 yards.
 Brown plays its last game on it's regular schedule on Thanksgiving day with the Carlisle Indians as op- ponents and is now preparing for that contest. No great trouble is ex- pected in winning this game, which however, has always proved an inter esting and spectacular. affair. The players will then be given a week s rest, at the conclusion of which act i've practice will begin for the coast game. So long as the weather re- mains favorable the men will work in one of the Providence armories on a tanbark floor.
 A squad of about 22 players and the usual rctinue of coaches, train CTS and managers will be taken on the trip. The start will be made from Providence on December 22, and home will be reached about Jan. 10.

other in 1890, and since then have played 19 games. Each academy has won nine times and one game, in 1905, resulted in a tie West Point has more. experienced players this year than the Navy and from present in dications it would seem that it has a good chance of winning. However, both teams have played such bad foot ball in some of their games this season that the Navy folks are not as much discouraged as it would appear on the surface
 All the tickets have been distributed and Secretary John B. Foster believes that the crowd will be close to 50,000 people. As spectacle the game stands alone in American sporting events The uniforms and gold braid of the army and navy officers, the martial music of tn ecadet bands, and the spectacular drills of the cadets and midshipmen make the event an unus- uaI sight. The game will be the great est, fashion show of the season..
 In the West Point line there are several players of long experience. Captain Weyand at right tackle is a player of much ability. and McEwen, at center, Meacham at right guard and Neyland at left end have all won their spurs for the Army. In Oliphant, the old Purdue player, the Army has a man who should star in Saturdays game.
 The officials for the game will be: Referee, Bill Langford, Trinity; um- pfre,; Fred Murphy, Brown; head lines man, Carl Williams, Pennsylvania; field judge, James A. Evans, Williams
