Gettysburg in Good Shape
For Game With Dickinson

Gettysburg, Oct. 81. - After two
nights of signal drill and two nights
of scrimmage the Gettysburg Col
lege football eleven is in top notch
condition for the important contest
with Dickinson at Carlisle on Sat
urday.
Moyer, Houtz, Bream and Phillips,
the regular backfeld which will
probably start against Dickinson
have been hitting the dummy all
week in order to improve their work
of taking out men in interference
and all are showing improvement.
Davis, the diminutive quarter, and
Mcdowell are in shape to relieve one
of the regulars at any time.
Vic" Emanuel, conceded to be
the greatest end ever seen on Nixon
Field, continues to play consistently
and snatch forward passes at all
angles.
Nicely, who has alternated in the
backfield and on the line, has been
placed at guard permanently and
will be hard to dislodge.

SOME RACE If
ALL PLANS GO
Owner Wants to Match His
Chunk of Unknown Blood
Against Arab Winner

New York, Oct. 31.-David Jack
son, of the Montclair Riding School,
wants to match little, thick chunk
of unknown blood, 14.2 hands high,
that he bought at auction at Camp
Dix a few months ago, against the
Arab winner of the recent endur-
ance race from Fort Ethan Allen to
Camp DevenS.
II am willing to match my pony
against Ramla at the same distance
(three hundred miles) for $1,000 a
side, the winner to take both horses;
no restrictions except to report at
given points, and the horse arriv-
ing home first to be the winner,
neither to carry whip or spur, and
each to carry 200 pounds. The race
to take place one month hence. If
w. r. Brown and A. w. Harris are
interested mail a check to the
Herald and they will find mare and
money ready" The New York Her.
aid says:
Here seems to be a spectacular
attraction for the National Horse
Show, which opens at Madison
Square Garden on November II,
with it's entire gross receipts a gift
to the Salvation Army. A match
race such as Mr.. Jackson proposes,
with the finish at the Garden dur
ing the show, would be an event of
great interest and no little value.
Mr.. Jackson should modify his pro-
posal, however, as to the winner
taking both mares. Whether she
won or lost Ramla would be much
more valuable than an unknown
amy pony, and it is hardly fair to
ask Mr.. Brown to stake her against
Mr.. Jackson's chunk. Besides, it is
not unlikely that Ramla's owner
would refuse to part with her at any
reasonable price.
"The possible objections to a race
with no restrictions might be met
by the provision that judges or rep
resentatives of the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
accompany the horses, with power
to halt either contestant on account
of any condition developing by
which it appeared to the authorities
that it would involve cruelty for her
to proceed. This was one of the
conditions of the recent endurance
race, and the judges exercised their
authority by stopping one or two Of
the contestants"

Clean Up Worlds Series
When Checks Are Returned

Cincinnati, Oct. 31.-The clerks en-
ployed to close up all details growing
out of world series seat requests have
completed their task for the Cincin-
natl club. More than $4,000 that had
been sent with requests for reserved
seats was returned to the applicants,
and it is believed that not one check,
postal order or cent of cash has gone
astray or been misplaced.
Long before the Reds had the Ma
tional league championship cinched
requests for world series seats be-
gan pouring into the clubs offices,
and hundreds of these letters con-
tanned money, check or money order.
For three or four weeks the money or
checks were sent back as fast as they
were received, the total of funds re-
turned probably going high in the
thousands. But when the stream of
applications became a flood it was
decided to wait until after the world
series was ended before resuming the
return of funds. 1t is estimated that
altogether probably 1000 requests for
seats. accompanied by the amounts of
the cost of the seats, had accu-
mulated. Nearly all the requests
were for four seats in field boxes or
grandstand.

Rabbit Season Tomorrow;
Local Hunters Are Ready

Rabbit season starts tomorrow.
Their are 5000 licensed hunters in
Dauphin county. If every hunter
who has taken out a license goes
into the field tomorrow, and each
brings home the limit for one day,
there will be 10000 rabbits killed
by Dauphin county hunters alone.
OF course all hunters will not be
out on the first day.
Local sporting goods dealers claim
that with favorable weather to-mor-
row will be a record-breaking day.
A widespread opinion prevails that
there will be good rabbit hunting
sport until the season ends, De-
cember Is.
In this vicinity hunters will be
able to get bunch of rabbits with
out going very far away from home,
providing he does not strike farmer
notices to keep off the premises"
Even with this barrier hunters will
find plenty of open places where cot
ton tails abound.

Pick Rote to Start in
Game Against Pitt Team

That Harry Rote, the local foot
ball star, who is in the Lehigh line
up, may get into the game to-mor-
row against Pitt is almost certain.
The position he will play is in doubt.
The Bethlehem Globe says:
"There is much speculation in
what position the coach will use
Harry Rote, Lehigh's little speed
merchant. Many believe that since
he called the signals in the Monday
practice he will probably be started
at quarterback. Fans had little
chance to see Rote in action under
fire this year and feel certain that
Harrington, whose heady general
ship in directing the squad on the
field of battle, will make him the
first choice against the Panthers."

TECH IN FORM
FOR HARD GAME
Play Perkiomen Seminary at
Island Park Tomorrow
Afternoon

Tech High School football team,
claimants to the championship of
the United States, is primed and set
for a battle royal Saturday afternoon
on the Island when Perkiomen school
of Pennsburg, will play its first ath-
letic contest with the Maroon lads.
Perkiomen knows the strength of
the Tech team, and in Offering to
come to Harrisburg they show that
they have confidence to think that
they can beat Tech, or at least put
up a good battle.
1t is conceded that the visitors
will give Tech the best game of the
season on the home ground, and an
other record crowd is expected to
look over the worlds champions"
on account of the soft condition
of the ground Coach Smith was un-
willing to take a chance with any
of his stars last night so that the
practice was very light. The Tech
tutor is still grooming candidates for
'Haps" Franks place at tackle.
Fat Ellinger, Bill" Pleam,
"Barny' Aldinger and Zip" Malick
We're given a chance at the tackle
position, and all of them did credit
able work.
While Captain Frank is still on
the side lines, the Coach will likely
use the same lineup that trounced
Mercersburg in the game last Satur-
day. Ellinger's work was gratify-
ing, and he will most likely get the
first call. The likely lineup for the
hip oo111a will he.

Now however the rather unusual distance of the cap
ves from the camp had attracted attention Somebody
on shore shouting and the sailors had stand
still Three or four Arabs with their rifles on their
shoulders and started toward the beach Noting all this
through his marine glass the captain of the Gaee con-
cuded that the moment to act had arrived.
He signaed the crew at the davits to drop the long
boat over the side into the water
At the same instant he gave the orders to the eager
gun crews to fire
With the rattle of the blocks as the long boat slid into
the water the five sailors burst into to increase the
distance as much possible between themselves and the
Arab camp. At the instant the Arab guards who
had started forward toward the beach seemed have
grasped the meaning Of what tHnspring, and they
brought their rifles to their shoulders.
In another moment the broadSide of shells from the
Gaee determined the of the captains strategy
One of the shells seemed to have landed in the group
of guards before they could fire their rifles Other shells
struck with precision in the Arab camp Almost before
the rbesmen recovered from their surprise the guns were
again loaded and the second rain of shells fell along the
beach and in the camp.
The five sailors Obedent to their Instructions had
plunged into the sea- and breastng the waves in the
direction of the Galiees long boat which was sweeping
forward to meet them Meanwhile the Arabs in diSmay
gave I'D ell thought of pursuit of the escaping prison
ers and abandoning their camels and camp outfit fed
across the sand dunes into the desert.
The strategy of the commander of the French cruiser
had worked perfectly. Ten minutes later BOatswain
Picard the leader of the party and the four other sailors
not sign of life be shore for the gunners
of the cruiser to aim at On September they reached
Toulon. France and were given public welcome
Most of the story of what Picard and his companions
endured during their captivity has already been told in
these paues 1t was record of hardship and suffering
that is rare in these civilized days

In the meantime, while leaving Spain to deal with
sebaudy himself the French Government taking
eps to rescue the five sailors whom he had left in the
ands of the Arabs note sent by the foreign office
the Moroccan authorities telling them that they must
pen negotiations with the tribe which held the and
nsist on their return at once
As an additional precaution the fast and powerful
french cruiser Gallee dispatched from TOulon to
he Moroccan to search for the missing men It's
Instructions any force that might be necessary
effect their recovery.
The cruiser arrived off Cape JUDY where the captive
Alors had last been heard FROM August 21st Here
interpreter sent ashore treat for the release of
be men, but all his offers were refused
Desparng of releasing the captves by ordinary means
captain of the Galee tried strategy He asked if he
night be allowed to talk with of the unfortunates
ho held prisoners by them but the Arabs were sus
icouS and refused to permit an interview with their
prisoners.
The captain then asked if he might be allowed to send
hem some shoes and clothing and this seemingly inno
ent request granted.
A bundle was then made up on board the warship
onsistng of blue shirt and blue sailors pea-jacket
nd white navy duck trousers for each of the ve This
election made so that it would be possible to dstn-
ush the sailors from the Arabs. Figures moving about

were often given neither food water When not lett

fined in prison where the filth and lack Of ventilation
made life almost unendurable.
