It took Brooklyn sixteen years to win a pennant and achieve all the glory thereof, but after the Red Sox series the average Brooklyn fan is be- ginning to wonder where all the glory went. Judging from the various tes- timonials offered, Brooklyn picked up greater glory the years she finished sixth. If not greater glory, at least far less of the other thing.

Hamilton, N. Y.,Oct. 17.-After the creditable victory over Illinois last Saturday, the Colgate football squad had one days respite, but yesterday the squad was out for it's usual daily practice. The work continues to be held in secret,
 The Rhode Island State game on Saturday is the next battle and there are several weak parts of the Maroon machine which were brought to light by Illinois. Attention is being devot- ed to the remedying of these, chiefly in catching forward passes. Illinois gained repeatedly on Colgate by for ward passing, while the latter was only able to gain twice by that means That the ends are still weak was proved by Saturdays contest also and Illinois gained around them fre- quently.

Rush Speeds Tigers Up.

Princeton, N. J., Oct. 17.-Treasur- CT and General Manager G. R. Mur- ray of the Princeton Athletic asso cia- tion announced last evening that as far as he knew the game with Lafay- cite would be played at Princeton on Saturday. He has received no word to the contrary as yet from the La fayette management and he has gone ahead With his original plans to stage the contest at Princeton.
 Another long workout was in order for the Tiger squad yesterday after noon, a large part of the time being devoted to improving the offense, which was noticeably weak against Tufts. Rush put his Varsity through a scrimmage of more than an hours duration The Varsity was on the offense the greater part of the time and registered two touchdowns
 Alan Brown, the right half back, scored both of these and was respon- sible for many of the Tigers long gains Brown shattered the scrubs line getting away from several long runs The performance of the new Tiger halfbacl in Saturdays contest was somewhat of a disappointment to

What To Do For Burns

Nothing is more terrifying to a
mother than an accident to her
baby.
Too frequently she becomes
panic stricken and does exactly
the wrong thing.
The commonest of accidents to
a baby in the home is burning or
scalding.
If baby's tlimsy clothing catches
fire the first impulse of mother
is to run 10 a neig Dor for aid.
What she should do, however, is
to grab heavy coat or blanket or
even the rug from the floor and
quickly wrap the infant in it.
This will exclude the air and
without air fire cannot burn. The
remedy in case of burn must also
be of such nature as will exclude
air from the hurt and thus ease
the pain. A mixture Of equal
parts OF lime water and raw linseed
oil is excellent for this purpose.
Every mother should keep a
bottle OF this mixture handy in

VILLA SACKS TOWN
ROBS CITIZENS
AND ESCAPES
Bandit Acts As Though Fe Might
Be Alive
AMERICANS WERE HIS VICTIMS
Villa and His Party Now Seem To Be
Headed North and On Way
Toward Texas.

FL Paso, Tex. April 13.-A band of
Villa followers numbering several
hundred and possibly 1000, have sack
ed Sierra Mojada, five miles across the
Coahuila line and 80 miles east of
Jiminez, destroying many thousands
of dollars worth of American property
and loOting the town of everything of
value. This news, which may prove
to be of the highest Importance as it
is believed in FL paso, Tex, possibly
Villa himself was among the raiders,
was received there yesterday by the
representative of one OF the largest
American mining concerns in Mexico
and is accepted by him as authentic.
The bandits made their attack on
the town on the 5th. They came from
Escalon. junction point on the Mex
lean National railroad, so miles south
east OF Jiminez and about an equal
distance southwest Of Sierra Mojada,
which has its connection by the Mex
lean Northern railroad. On their way
to Sierra Mojada they sacked the
small town OF Corrillo.
The belief that Villa himself may
be directing the operations of the
bandits is supported by a report re-
ceiyed yesterday from Ojinaga stat
ing that Col. Rioias. the commander
there, had information that Villa had
doubled in his tracks and was 200
miles southwest of that town. DIN
aga is directly across the border from
Preside. Tex, and about 150 miles
north of Sierra Mojada.
Another circumstance that gives
color to this location of the bandit
chief is the fact that Canuto Reyes,
| at the head of large number OF men,
was reported from Torreon a week
ago to be travelling north in the direc-
ton of Sierra Mojada. 1t was the
belief at the time in Torreon that
Villas ally was on his way TO join his
chief If it proves true, Villa has
evaded the American troops who have
been driving south at an amazing
speed, and were yesterday reported,
from reliable sources. to be well south
of Parral, and close to the Durango
border.
Sierra Mojada is 140 miles east OF
the nearest point at which American
troops are known to he. 1t is on the
| eastern side of vast desert known
as the Bolson Mapmi and south OF
| another dreary waterless waste called
Bolson Deloslipanes, Its only connec-
tion with the west is by the Mexican
Northern railroad. along which the
bandits advanced, burning bridges, de
stroying telegraph lines and tearing
up the tracks as far as they were
| able.

WANTS TROOPS WITHDRAWN
Carranza's Consul Says We Should
Get Out of Mexico.

FL aso, Tex, April 11.-Gen. Gabriel
Gavira, Carranza commander at
Juarez, last night announced that the
forces of the delacto government were
in position to take immediate control
of the Villa situation if the American
troops withdrew. Gen Gavira's state
ment was made in connection with the
announcement of Maj-Gen Hugh l..
Scott, chief of staff of the American
army Office, that the purpose of the
expeditionary force would be consid
cred accomplished when the Villa
bands were dispersed or "as soon as
the troops Of the de facto government
are able to relieve them of the work.
I'VE have more men than enough
now,' said Gen Gavira. "If we were
able to overcome Villa when he had
10000 men, over 100 cannon and plen-
ty of supplies, We ought to be able to
dispose of him now, when his numbers
have dwindled down to few hundred
But it is big territory to operate
in, and a single man has more chance
to escape and hide than large force
would have. However. on account of
Villas wounded condition, we think lie
will be taken soon. If not, it is hard
ly likely that without proper surgical
nare he will survive long
