touchdowns were made.
Eddie Casey ran through a broken

practice ended Hamilton, who played
such sterling game at left ha'fback
against Boston College last week, did

not in the lineup, nor were the two
regular ends. Havemeyer. however,
played we'll at centre, as did Desmond.
Ryan. who played on the S. A. 7. c.
team last fall, was used at left in
phinney's place and showed genuine
speed.
Bricker worked at guard. and his

Hsdey and Woods are being worked

harder to-day with the idea Of getting
more speed and drive into his all

Columbia Football
Squad Gets Drilling
In Forward Passes
{: By BRIGGS

The Columbia football squad was put
through a strenuous practice yesterday
in preparation for the opening game
with Vermont on Saturday. The team
work is rapidly being perfected and
prospects for a victory to start the
season are good. A good part of the
practice yesterday was devoted to the
pc fccting of short forward passes
directly over the line. This style of
pay may form big part of Colum-
Da S offence this season.
Quigley was used at quarterback
during most of the practice but Charlie
Shaw also took hand at plotting the
team during the latter part of the
wo kout. Appe baum, who has bcea
playing at halfback, was shifted to
guard yesterday because of his de-
fensive ability, and Modarelli was
shifted from guard to tackle. The
change seemed to work we'll.

Trouble With West Va.

PITTSBURGH. Oct. s--The football
lid in Pittsburgh will be lifted next
Saturday by Glenn Warmers University
of Pittsburgh's 'Panthers, when they
line up at Forbes Field against the
West Virginia eleven. Pitt opened the
season last Saturday at Beaver Falls

While the victory was decisive, the
game proved little as regards the
strength of the Panthers. for two rea-

West Point Football Coaches
Make Many Shifts and
Work Four Flevens Hard

WEST POINT. \. y. Oct. s.-The
Army's drive for the Syracuse battle
here Saturday continued this afternoon.
There was strenuous work for four
elevens. two scrimmages of 25 minutes
each being staged. The shifting of
players was continued to-day, and it is
a safe prediction that at least half of
the positions on the team which will
face the upstate collegians on Satur-
day are doubtful
The battle for the pivotal position
between Greene, Pitzer and Kelly has
narrowed down to the two first named
men. Greene is filing the place so

 q go most by the ghost, sar," he said. "All these men had never been killed if the ghost hadn't been some where near. Mark me, if we find the treasure it'll be by the ghost"
 That's all very we'll" I laughed. ''But how are we going to get the ghost to show his hand? He's got such bloodthirsty ways with him."
 "They always have. sar" said Tom, no doubt with some ancestral shudder of voodoo worship in his blood "Yes, sar, they always cry out for blood. It's all they've got to live on. They drink it like you and me drink coffee or rum. It's terrible to hear them in the night"
 'Well, Tom," I remarked, "you may be right, but of one thing I'm certain 1; if the ghosts going to get any one, it sha'n't be you"
 "We've both got one good chance against them" Tom was beginning.
 Don't tell me again about that old sucking fish"
 "Mind you keep it safe, for all that" said Tom gravely. q wouldn't lose mine for thousand pounds
 "Well, all right, but let's forget the damned old ghosts for the present."
 We decided to try plan that was really no plan at all; that is to say, to seek more or less at random, till we consumed all our stores except just enough to take us home Meanwhile we would, each of us, every day, cut a sort of radiating swathe, working sin gle-handed, from the cove entrance. Thus we would prospect as much of the country as possible in sort of fan, both of us keeping our eyes open for compass carved on a rock. In this way we might hope to cover no in- considerable stretch of the country in the three weeks, and, moreover, the country most likely to give some re- suits, as being that lying in a semicir- cle from the little harbor where the ships would have lain. It wash much Of : plan perhaps, but it seemed the most possible among the impossibles.

call them, and there we were able to dig him a fairly respectable grave.
 Tom and Sailor and I were now, to the best of our belief, alone on the island, and a lonesomer spot it would be hard to imagine, or one touched at certain hours with a fairer beauty a beauty wraithlike and, like a sea shell, haunted with the marvel of the sea.
 First we went over our stores, and, thanks to those poor dead mouths that did not need to be reckoned with any more, we had plenty of everything tc last us for at least q month, not to speak of fishing, at which Tom was an expert.
 When, however, we turned to our plans for the treasure hunting we soon came to dead stop. The indi- cations given by Tobias seemed, in the face of such a terrain naive to a de- gree. Possibly the land had changed since his day. Some little, of course, it must have done. Tom and I went over Tobias directions again and there was the compass carved on the rock, and the cross. There was some thing defnite-s something which, if it was ever there at all, was there still for in that climate the weather leaves things unperished almost as in Egypt.
 Sitting on the highest bluff we could find, Tom and I looked around.

Fish That Spin Silk.

Silk stockings are very expensive nowadays, says Pearson's Weekly.
 The most costly of all this kind of hosiery, however, is made from silk which is not the product of the silk worms, but species of shellfish called a pulna.
 The puina makes it's home in the warm waters of the Mediterranean round Sicily. It has an odd little tube at the end of it's tongue.
 Out of this tube, spider fashion. or silk-worm fashion. it spins silk thread with which 1t fastens itself to any rock to which 1t wishes to adhere.
 When the puina moves on to fresh feeding grounds it's silken cable is left behind. This cable, which is called byssus, the Sicilian fishermen gather. Byssus weayes into the softest, finest, sheeniest of fabrics; but it is very rare, and the stockings woven from 1t con- are as has been said-ex- ceedingly expensive.

KEEP BUSY AND LIVE LONG
Notable Examples of Longevity Among Men Who Have Elected
 to Remain in Harness"

Maybe it used to be that "the good die young" but it doesn't look as though they're doing it now.
 Take, for instance, Rev. Albert Vo- gel of Jeannette Pa.
 He's one hundred and two years old.
 He's never smoked or chewed fobac- co or drank intoxicating. liquor. Never quarreled or fought with another man. Always trying to do good and to per- suade others to behave themselves
 Rev. Mir. Vogel is the oldest active minister of the gospel in the United States
 Hard work, lots of walking and an occasional fishing trip is his formula for long and happy life.
 And this reminds us that Rev. Dr Aaron E. Ballard is president of the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting associa- tion, New York, and is ninety-eight years old.
 Il never would have lived to this age" Doctor Ballard said, If had re- tired at sixty and commenced twirling my thumbs in idleness.'
 So it seems the good don't die young If they keep busy-New York World.

CHAPTER VIII.
An Diminished eame of cards.

An Unfinished Game of Cards.
 One evening as I returned to the ship unusually worn out and disheart- ened I asked Tom how the stores were holding out. He answered cheerfully that they would last another week and leave us enough to get home.
 "Well, shall we stick out the other week or not, Tom? I don't want to kill you, and I confess I'm nearly all in myself"
 May as well stick it out, sar, now we've gone so far. Then we'll have done all we can, and there's a certain satisfaction in doing that sar."
 So next morning we went at it again, and the next, and the next again, and then on the fourth day, when our week was drawing to it's close, something at last happened to change the grim monotony of our days.
 It was shortly after the lunch hour. Tom and I, who were now working too far apart to hear each others halloos, had fired our revolvers once or twice to show that all was right with us. But for no reason can give. sud- denly got a feeling that all was not right with the old man, so I fired my revolver and gave him time for a re- ply. But there was no answer. Again fired. Still no answer. I was on the point of firing again when I heard something coming through the brush behind me. It was Sailor racing toward me over the jagged rocks. Evidently there was something wrong.
 Something wrong with old Tom, Sailor?" I asked, as though he could answer me- And indeed he did answer as plainly as dog could do, wagging his tail and whining and turning to go back with me in the direction whence he had come.
 of we go, then, old chap" and as he ran ahead, I followed him as fast as I could.
 It took me the best part of an hour to get to where Tom had been work ing. Sailor brushed his way ahead pushing through the scrub with canine importance. Presently,sat the top of slight elevation, I came among the bushes to a softer spot where the soil had given way, and saw that it was the mouth of shaft like a wide chim- ney fiue, the earth of which had evi- dently fallen in. Here Sailor stopped and whined, paving the earth, and at the same time heard a moaning un- derneath.
 ''Is that you, Tom?" called. Thank God, the old chap was not dead at all events.
 ''Thank the Lord, it's you, sar," he cried. 'T'm all right, but I've had a bad fall-and I can't seem able to move"
 Hold on and keep up your heart I'll be with you in minute" I called down to him.

called out to the Susan E., that was just running up her sails. At his word they put out a boat for him, and while he waited he came down the hill toward me and the dog, that stood growing over you; and for sure I thought it was the end. But he said i: Tell that fellow there that I'm not going to kill defenseless man. He might have killed me once but he didn't. It's bound to be one of us some day or other, but, despise me all he likes-Fm not such carrion as he thinks me; and if he only likes to keep out of my way I'm willing to keep out of his. Tell him when he wakes up that as long as he gives up going after what belongs to me--for it was my grandfather's-he is safe, but the min ute he sets his foot or hand on what is mine, it's either his life or mine.' And then he turned away and was rowed to the Susan B., and they soon sailed away"
 'With the black flag at the peak, I suppose, Tom," said I. "Well, that was a fine speech, quite a flight of ora tory, and I'm sure I'm obliged to him for the life that's still worth having, in spite of this ungodly aching in my head. But how about the poor cap tain there! Where does all his elo- quence come in there? He can't call it self-defense. They were waiting ready to murder us, as you saw. I'm afraid the captain and the law be- tween them are all that is necessary to cook the goose of our friend Henry F. Tobias, Jr., without any help from me-though, as the captain died for me, I should prefer they allowed me to make it personal matter"
 'It's the beginning of the price" ," said Tom.
 '"The beginning of the price?'
 ''It's the dead hand" continued Tom :; q told you, you'll remember, that wher- ever treasure is there's ghost of dead man keeping guard and waiting till another dead man comes along to take up sentry duty so to say. The ghost is getting busy. And it makes me think that we're coming pretty near to the treasure, or we wouldn't have had all this happen. Mark ne, the treasures near by-or the ghost wouldn't be so malicious"
 And then, looking around where the captain and the engineer and Silly Theodore lay, I said
 'The first thing we've got to do is to bury these poor fellows; but where I added, "are the other two that fell in the water?"
 "Oh," said Tom, "a couple of sharks got them just before you woke up"

 We had now been at it for about a more every day for the grit and cour- age with which he supported our ter rible labors and kept up his spirits. Once or twice we had made fancied discoveries which we called off the other to see, and once or twice we had tried some blasting on rocks that seemed to suggest mysterious tunnel ings into the earth. But 1t had all proved vain thing and weariness of the flesh. And the ghost of John P. Tobias still kept his secret.
