The end of the high school foot ball
series was marked yesterday when
Business defeated Western by a mar
gin of two points, the score being IA
to L. The contest was well played
and was won by the Stenographers
because they got the jump on the Red
and White and displayed enough Of
fense in the first few minutes of play
to give them the victory.
The series has, on the whole, been
well played Western proved much
Nronger than anybody thought it

suffered by graduation. Technical did
not accomplish quite as much as its
material and former standing seemed
to entitle it to. Business did well, as
everybody thought it would.

freely predicted that the championship
would lie between Technical. Business
and Central. with Eastern ana w estern

As far as Eastern was concerned the

TOP PRICE FOR RUTH TODD.
Five-Year-0ld Brings $500 at Old
Glory Horse Sale.

NEW YORK, November 25.-Bargain
counter offerings were reached at the
Old Glory light-harness horse sale at
the Madison Square Garden yesterday,
and the shrewd horsemen who can
seem to smell out possible winner for
the short ship" circuits among the
offerings were the principal bidders
and buyers yesterday. These rarely
ventured over the $3.50 bids, so that
$500 was the top price reached for any
of the daytime offerings. This was paid
by the agent of the Curles Neck farm
of c. G. K. Billings for Ruth Todd, a
five-year-old daughter of Kentucky
Todd out of Directum Boy mare with
a record of 2.16A, which will be bred
same buyer paid s7O0 for Setter Girl,
2-2I, also five years old. by Henry
Setter. out of a Look-a-Day mare
which will also be used for breeding.
Both these were in the consignment
from the Oakhurst farm at Whitins-
vile. Mass, which sold ten head for a
total of S3,435.
The largest consignment disposed of
was lot of thirtyfve from the estate
of George Stengel of Newark. n. j., a
miscellaneous lot which included wean-
lings. yearlings. two-year- -olds, ard
some older, few of which had anything
in the way of records and only their
blood lines and conformation to COM
mend them to purchasers. They fetched
total of $5.S33, the best of the lot SELL
ing for $325.
Indication of the condition of the
market for the average sort of trotting
horse in this vicinity is shown by such
figures as these: Twelve head from the
r. L. Nash consignment from Lexing-
ton, KY, fetched a total of $2,335; elev-
en- from the Bell farm at Norristown.
Pa. brought but s2,565; four from the
Winoga stock farm at Chestnut Hill,
Pa. were disposed of for 500, and four
from a. L. Hurd & Co. of Odin, ILL.,. sold
for but 1855. an amount which hardly
paid for the shipment.
