| power seemed to be holding his wrist and was bending its bone as an Indian l bends bow. Pain dashed through him. And then this dark-hearted man, who had never known the meaning of mer- cy, opened his lips to scream that this
 terrible enemy be merciful to him. But the words wouldn't come. A ghastly weight had come at his throat, and his tortured lungs sobbed for breath. Then, for a long time, there was curious pounoIng, flashing sound in the evergreen boughs. It seemed mercilesS and endless.
 But Dan got up at last. in strange, heavy silence, and swiftly went to work. He took the rifle and filled it with cartridges from CranStons belt. Then he put the remaining two boxes of shells into his shirt pocket. The supplies of food-the sack of nutri- tious jerked venison like dried bark. the little package of cheese, the boxes of hard tack and one of the small sacks of prepared fiour-he tied, with a single kettle, into his heavy blan- kets and flung them with the rife upon his back. Finally he took the pair of snow shoes from the floor. He worked coldly, swiftly, all the time munching at a piece of jerked venison. When he had finished he walked to the door of the lean-to.
 It seemed to Dan that Cranston whis- pered faintly, from his unconscious ness, as he passed; but the victor did not turn to look. The snow shoes crunched away into the darkness. On the hill behind half dozen wolves stragglers from the pack-frisked and leaped about in a curious way. A
 
 wind, and when the loud. fearful steps were out of hearing. it might pay them to creep down, one by one, and investi- gate its cause.
 The gray circle about the fire was growing impatient. Snowbfrd waited to the last instant before she admitted this fact. But it is possible only so long to deny the truth Of a thing that all the senses verify, and that moment for her was past.
 She noticed that when she went to her hands and knees, laborfously to cut piece of the drier wood from the rain-Soaked. routed snag that was her principal supply of fuel. every wolf would leap forward, only to draw back when she stood straight again. She worked desperately to keep the fire burning bright She dared not neglect ] It for moment. Except for the single | pistol ball that she could afford to ex- i pend on the wOlves-of the three she 1 had-the fire was her last defense
 But it was losing fight. The rain- soaked wood smoked without flame, the comparatively dry core with which Dan had started the fire had burned down, and the green wood, hacked with such heart-breaking difficulty from the that Dan had cut, needed the most tireless attention to burn at all.

full shares. and all have been paid with
the exception of these three men.
Judge Landis' delay in making a de-
cision in the Ruth case may be due to
the fact that he holds this weapon over
the players head. it has been stated.
Those inclined to speculate declared that
the judge figures it good plan to let
the players think over the offense until

Withholding their pay or he will come

Weather Hampers Tigers.

PRINCETON. n. j.. November s.
lnclement weather again kept the
Princeton foot ball team from its
scheduled scrimmage yesterday and
instead the eleven spent most of its
time in running through signals.
Practice this week has indicated
that the following players will start
against Harvard: Left end. Snively;
left tackle. keck; left guard, Lip
scor.b; center. Wittmer: right guard
Norman; right tackle, Hooper; right
end. Stinson; quarterback. Lourie; left
halfback. Gilroy: right halfback, Gar
rity; fullback. Cleaves.
During part CT the drill Lourie
went to one side of the field and prac-
ticed punting. In spite of the soggy
ball he averaged 55 yards. the best
he has done this season. and in some
cases booted the oval so.
All the available tickets have been
sold, and applications are still pour
ing in. To accommodate the surplus,
a wooden stand has been built at the
south end of the field, holding 5000:
two rows of seats have been con-
structed on the top of the stadium,
and the whole structure has been re-
numbered so as to give 1000 extra
spaces. This raises the seating ca
pacity to slightly over $4,000.

Ceorpia's main accomplishment so
far this year was its brilliant eHoft
at Harvard. 1t scored on Harvard,
and was beaten by Harvards regular
eleven by 10 to Z. The best Centre
College could do against a crippled
Crimson eleven was one touchdown.
Georgia Tech was whipped oy rem
State, but it's crushing victory over
Rutgers and the failure or any south-
crn eleven SO far to make much or
showing against it is sufficient rea-
son for giving it place in the sun.
Teams show Variation.
With the exception of these teams.
the foot ball squads of the south
show lust about the same variation
as in former years. some OF the
teams which were very strong a year
ago are only fairly strong now, and
some are much more powerful and
competent in every department. Par
ticularly is this true of Virginia and
North Carolina. Both these schools
are anywhere from 40 to 60 per cent
better this year than last, as there
IS not a single department of plaj- in
which each team has not SHOWN won
derful improvement.
Northt Carolina State, Virginia Mill
tary Institute and University OF
Maryland, except in spots. have not
shown the consistent string of vic
tories they produced in 1920. Virginia
Polytechnic Institute and Washing
ton and Lee have better teams. es2e-
.cially the former. v. P. l. has net
yet shown just how strong 1t really
is; it will be a surprise If the Blacks
burg men do not take the measure Of
" NJ. /. Thanksgiving day at Roa-
noke.
Auburn and Alabama have not pro-
duced the strength they developed in
1920. The former especially was hard
hit by graduation of several of its
nd ha a also lnSf
star players by their entrance into
professional base ball.
VIII Furnish Good Line.
A good line on the comparative
strength of the elevens in the south
Atlantic section will be got when
Virginia and Georgia play at Athens
this week. 1t is not known just how
will be eligible to go in against
Virginia, but if the Crackers are not
weakened considerably by the loss Of
men under the one-year rule agree
ment with Virginia, then this should
be a Georgia year
University of South Carolina ap-
pears to be a little stronger than it
was a year ago. Anyway. 1t was
strong enough to beat Clemson by 21
TO o, and victory in that one game is
a seasons success for the Columbia
men, Clemson. whipped by South
Carolina, usually considers its season
Il failure. just as it would regard it's
season as success If it whipped
South Carolina and lost every other
contest scheduled.
AS the Georgia-Virginia game this
week will give good comparison be-
tween these elevens, SO will the
GeorgetownGeorgi Tech game give
a line on the comparative worth of
two other teams, one from the far
south and the other from the south
Atlantic section. AS a matter of fact
when it comes to ranking southern
teams the Virginia-Georgia and
Georgetown-Georgia Tech games will
be all-important criterions.

.FORDHAM PLAYERS FIT.
FOR BATTLE WITH c. j.

NEW YORK, November 3.-One big
point in favor Of Fordham's success in
its foot ball game with Georgetown in
Washington Saturday lies in the fact
that all the Maroon players who have
been on the hospital list again are in fit
conGItion. For the first time in several
weeks Hogan, Larkin and Arthur Brick
ley donned their togs yesterday and
took part in all of the daily training
stunts but the scrimmage.
Two elevens. one led by Commit and
the other guided by Shankey, were pit
ted against each other in long scrim-
mage. At the close Of this clash Con-
mfrs eleven had scored four tOuchdowns
and the seconds one. Meyers, the vet
eran Maroon halfback, also scored a
few more points for the varsity by max
ing two pretty field goals.
The team will leave for Washington
tomorrow morning. The locals will not
lack supporters to cheer them on in the
Georgetown tussle, for about 400 stu
dents already have made plans to go to
the Capital city to witness the game.
The majority of the students will travel
in large buses that have been espe-
cially fitted up for this long trip.
