How many persons know anything
about football? That is question
one is tempted to ask himself after
reading some of the fiction football
stories which bloom at this time of
year and more especially after listen
ing to some of the comments made
by rooters during important games.
The conclusion arrived at is that the
person who has even a fair working
of the gridiron sport is in
deed a rara avis. There are scores
and hundreds of rooters who have
watched football games for several
years who do not know even the rudi-
menary working principles of the
game, to say nothing of the finer
points which lie hidden to the eyes
of all except the most expert coaches.

HIS MISSING BOYS
REAPPEAR AS MEN

Bartlett, Texas, Oct 2S. w. NJ.
Cehand, farmer near Bartlett, was
reunited few days ago with his two
sons, James and Rudolph, whom he

The Cehand family were living in
Galveston at the time of the great
storm which swept over that city in
September, 1900. When the flood
swept in from the Gulf struck their
house it collapsed and the members
of the family were cast into the tor
rent. Mr.. Cehand managed to catch
hold of a piece of wreckage and
clung to it for several hours while he
was dashed hither and thither, and
he was finally flung up on the main
land several miles from the site Of
his wrecked home.
When his house went down Mr..
Cehand caught glimpse of his wife
and two sons as the mountain of wa
ter swallowed them up. The two
bows. then aged three and five, re-
spectiyely, were holding each other
in an embrace, and Mr.. Cehand was
endeavoring to reach them. That was
the last he saw of any member of his
family since that memorable day
when they were torn apart in the
raging storm until a few days ago

manhood. alighted from the train at
