Tigers Haze Hard
Test in uttle
Viii, the 'sOnleletS'
From Special Correspondent

PRINCETON, n. J., Nov. lO.-The
first really hard scrlmmage for the
TIGER football team since the West
Virginia game took place in the Pal
mer Stadium this afternoon. For the
last two weeks the workouts have con-
sisted chiefly Of dummy drills, defense
against forward passing and running
down under punts.
To-day, however, Bill Roper sent his
charges through real battle royal,
probably the last one for the 1920
football warriors, unless the rumored
deciding game with the Crimson de-
>elops into a reality.
Nat Poe's famous squadron Of
"Omclcts" was the opponent OF the
varsity, and its showing against the
first eleven was excellent. Throughout
the scrimmage, which lasted for nearly
an hour, the varsity was able to score
only one touchdown, and this entirely
by aerial attack, Lcgendre scoopng in
the final pass from Murray and dash
ing across the line.
The second eleven was unable to
penetrate the first teams goal terri
tory, but the showing of the varsity
was not particularly encouraging
Gordon, the scrub halfback went
through for nine yards and then on
the next play for four more the line
being especially weak and allowing the
scrub backteld to make repeated gains
through the center
Perhaps one reason for this poor dis
play of the team as a WHOLE though
certainly not the lire was the absence
Of Don Lourie, Hank Garritv. Ralph
Gl'roy and Jim McManMon from the
lineup. The failure Of these veterans
to be on hand was simply due to the
fact that Roper IS giving them much
peeded rest
Frank Murrey was at the helm to-
day. and = Wilmer and Jack Cleaves
we're succeeded by Garrity and Gilroy
at the halfback posts. while White
Thomas was the coaches choice for the
vecant guard position.
During the course of rehearsal sew
eral substitutions were made. McNa-
mara took Noopor's place at right
tackle; Davis substituted for Stinson;
Croft for Legcndre, and German for
Iiurrey, while Knox and McPhec were
given chance to show what thev could
GO before the squad was sent to the
showers.

in Alburg, in that state, May 3, 1857.
He had known poverty and had ex-
%perienced hardship. He had worked
on a farm, and farm work in Vermont
is very hard. 1t had been difficult for
him to get an education. He was SO
earnest, SO hard.worEing, SO eager for
an education that he had won the
good opinion OF all who knew him.
He had longed to go to a university,
but he did not have the money. A
kindly farmer had offered to supply

I know" said the farmer, that you
will pay the money back if you live.
Nov, if you will give me security, SO
that in case you die / will be repaid,

The farm boy thought a moment,
and saw a way. He took out a life

the farmer, and he ven to the Uni

and there for a year he taught school.
Then he moved further West, to Grand

That raw, boisterous little town, at
the junction Of the Grand and Gunni-

young man from Vermont. 1t had
plenty of dance halls, lots OF gambling

who saw with prophetic eye that some

Two roarlng rivers, the Grand and the
Gunni9on, met there and joined their
waters. The site selected for the
town had been a favorite camping
ground for the White River Jtes and
the Uncompahgres for ages before
white men knew America. No more
beautiful setting could man find for u
home. Near where the rivers joined,
the valley ~broadened into a great bowl,
the sides of which were formed by

eminent. He had the courage to ex-
press his convictions. Some Of the
things he wrote for the Grand juno
ton News offended the county officials
and aroused the resentment of the
gamblers and the p%luguglies of Grand
junction. They looked upon him as a
tenderfoot from the East. and it was
not long before he was in a peck of
trouble.
Men went armed in Grand Junction,
in hose days, and settled their diff.
culties with the gun. The tenderfoot
from Vermont became a marked man.
The gamblers, the dance hall people
and the saloon keepers wanted to get
rid of him. He annoyed them. But
he won the admiration Of the sturdy,
earnest. clean-living me of all that
country.
His Life in Danger.
At last things came to such a pass
that the life of the editor hung by a
thread. For three weeks an armed
guard protected him from the men
who would take his life. When he
went out in the street he had a pistol
in his coat pocket and his finger was
on the trigger, ready for instant use.
To add to the intensity of feeling, an
election was approaching. The gang
wanted to remain in Office. Kingsley
wanted to GUST them. That election
was fought bitterly. When the votes
were counted, the of decency had
Won. The men whom Kingsley sup
ported We're elected. That was the
first regular election in the county OF
Mesa. He had fought for decency. for
honesty and for right, and Grand juno
ton and Colorado were better for his
coming.
The little town came to have a
pride in the young man from Vermont,
and the following year he was elected
a delegate to the national Republican
convention, the one that nominated
James G. Blaine for president OF the
United States. A few years later when

Kingsley had to do something. or
return to the East. He was not one
TO acknowledge defeat. He studied
the situation thoroughly and saw only
one way in which he would get a job.
There was a printer in Grand juno
ton who had a few fonts Of type and
an apology for a press. The mans
name was Price. He got out a little
newspaper which he called the Grand
Junction News. Price liked the print
Ing business, but he did not care much
for Il newspaper end. Kingsley
talked with him. and Price expressed
a willingness to sell a half interest
in the business if Kingsley would rus.
tie up the money to pay for it. Kings
ley did not have the necessary capital,
but he had a friend in Wisconsin and
this friend lent the money to him at
seven per cent, and when it was paid
over to Price, Kingsley became editor
OF the Grand Junction News.
A new county had been formed in
western Colorado, and Governor Grant
had appointed officers to conduct it's
affairs pending a regular election. The
county was named Mesa and Grand
Junction was made the county seat.
Governor Grant was 4 worthy and
good man, but some of the men he sent
to Mesa county were rather sad speci-
mems. The young editor had his w
