Historical
Boone Tree
Blown Down During Storm.
D. A. r. Chapter TO Pur-
chase Tree.

During severe windstorm
which visited Boone's Creek
aud other sections of the coun-
~ on last Saturday afternoon.
the famous historical Boone"
tree, located on Boon'S Creek
was blown down The tree in
falling was split in twain and
as result the words cd Boon
rilld bar on tree in year 1860
was split into half. The dis
covery that the tree had blown
down was made Sunday and a
number of people have visited
it since that time. Those who
have seen it state that il can
never be preserved unless it is
taken and preserved by some
society or organization. In or
der to do this the John SEWER
chapter ID. A. II. are devisipg
plans whereby the part Of the
tree containing the above words
may be preserved as historical
relic and it is believed that this
can be done. Lafayette Isley
owns the land on which the
tree was located and the local
chapter is making preparations
TO purchase the tree from him,
or that part Of 1t containing the
words of the famous hunter and
pioneer, who carved them in
the tree.
The John Sewer d. A. r..
chapter was preparing to pre-
serve the tree at the time it was
blown down, but it's plans were
not perfected when it was
learned that the windstorm had
feIIed il.
The tree has received much
attention throughout the coun-
try and many interesting stories
have been written concerning
b. Many people have visited
il from various sections Of the
country and pictures Of it have
been made and scattered wide.

MILLIONS ARE PAID
TO SEE GRID CONTESTS

Football Will pay some handsome re-
turns to the big colleges this year.
There is promise now OF capacity crowds
at all the big games in both East and
West
The record income, no doubt, will be
derived from the Yale-Harvard combat
on November 25. The game will be
played in the Yale bowl which has a
seating capacity Of over $1,000 Requests
for seats already embrace more than lo0.-
900 tickets. To take care Of as many en-
thusiasts as possible, the Yale authorities
may build 5000 extra seats.
Tho Harvard Stadium will seat about
1900 and the big Harvard Princeton
game there promises to lure a capacity
crowd. The new stands at Princeton
will take care of over 10000 spectators
and seat demands for the Yale-Prtnceton
combat already exceed the supply.
Although the Army-Navy date is the
same as that Of the Yale-Harvard. 1t is
certain that the service schools struggle
in the Polo Grounds, New York, will
attract the limit crowd of something like
1000. At 50 per head, this means an
income Of $4,000, a sum not to be snihfed
at even in these days Of mushroom for
tunes.
The stands in the West are not as
huge as they are in the East, but every
one Of the big games will jam the en-
closures. II is safe to say that a total
Of close to 10000 will see the four big
games in the East and those in the
West
