This is not the time---if there is any
tlme--to speak more than in passing
of where this and that team belongs
IN rating; but Saturdays tests showed
that the Lafayette eleven, supposed to
be without a superior in the East, was
too easily trieked to be a. real cham
pion.
Washington and Jefferson "out-
smarted' Lafayette, to use a very
modern term. This was conspicuously
visible in the second half at the Polo
Grounds, as visible as was the fact
that w. and ]. came from behind in
fine style and eutpiayed Lafayette in
physical sense. Cleverer rallies than
that are few, for it was against a
strong, rugged team of wide repute,
and wits played large part in turn
ing the tide and adding TO GREASY"
Neale's reputation as coach.
The run from blug' forward pass
a Harvard device differing somewha at
in detail--fooled Lafayette and started
the latter on the road to defeat. A
criss-cross fooled them earlier; they
were all at sea on the forward pass
which earned the second touchdown,
and the try-for-point forward pass.
the first play of its kind seen around
here, had them utterly off guard. That,
however, probably would have hap
pened to nine teams out of ten at that
particular moment. Probably about
29,99S Of the $4,000 people in the
stands didn't expect it either.
w. and Us tackling and interference
for the end runs improved greatly in
the second half, and Lafayette, which
in the first half had moved with the
assurance, smooth drive and undeni-
able progress of one Of the best Har-
ward teams, played in the second half
like team engaged chiefly in trying
to keep the other side from winning
and Saturday, and judging solely by
them, a fair ranking of the four teams
concerned would be: Washington and

a gigantic Indian brandishing his
rifle at at the edge of the woods, en-
couraging his companions behind,
and each time he grunted and begged
for gun. Dave made out that the
Indian was the one who had treated
the boy cruelty and that the lad was
after personal revenge.
A last sally was made just before
sunset. A body pushed against Dave
in the tower and Dave saw the
stranger boy at his side with his bow
and arrow. A few minutes later he
heard a yell from the lad which
rang high over. the din and he saw
the feathered tip of an arrow shak-
ing in the breat of the big Indian
who staggered and fell behind
bush. just at that moment there
were yells from the woods behind
answered by joyful yells within the
fort:

And as the rescuers dashed into
sight on hore and afoot, Dave saw
the lad leap the wall of the stockadc
and disappear behind the fleeing In
dians.
Gone back to 'em," he grunted to
himself. The gates were thrown
open. Old Jerome and his men
rushed out, and besieged and rescu-
ers poured all their fire after the
running Indians, some of whom
turned bravely to empty their rifles
once more.
Git in! Git in, quickl" yelled old
Joel. He knew another volley would
come as soon as the Indians reached
the cover of the thick woods, and

had treated him badly-he pointed
out the bruises Of cuffs and kicks on
his body.
The Indians called him White Ar
row, and ne knew he was white from
-the girdle of Unframed skin under
his hreccheiout and because the
Indian boys tainted him.
Asked why he had come to the
fCrt, he pointed again to his bruises,
pat both bands against his Jrelst,
and stretched them wide as though
he would seek shelter in the arms of
his own race and take them to his
heart.
Old Jerome and Dave and the
older men gathered in for a
council of war. The boy had made
it plain that the attacking party was
two days behind the three indians
from whom he had escaped, so that
e2re was no danger that day, and
they could wait until night to send
messengers TO warn the settlers out
eide to seek safety within the fort.
On the mighty wilderness. the sun
sank slowly and old Jerome sent
runners to the outlying cabins to
warn the inmates to take refuge
within the fort. There was no set

another sound came from the woods,
but again Dave from the tower saw
the cane-brush rustic at the edge of
a thicket, saw hand thrust upward
with the palm of peace toward the
fort, and again the stranger boy
emerged-this time with bloody
scalp dangling in his left hand.
In the center of the enclosure the
wounded Virginian lay, and when
old jerome stripped the shirt from
his breast he shook his head grayely.
The wounded man opened MS eyes
just in time to see and ne smiled.

OF. the wilderness lifted its mist-fring-
Ell lid. From the green depths came
the futing OF lone wood-thru1h.
Through them an owl flew on velvety
wings for his home in the heart of a
primeval poplar.
Deep in the depths boy with
bow and arrow and naked, except
for scalp-lock and breech-cl9ut,

behind him, three granting savag,
were taking up the print of h.3
moceasihed feet.
An hour before a red flare rose
within the staked enclosure that was
reared in the center Of little clear
ing. Before the first glimmer of day
the gates yawned a little and three
dim shapes moved leisurely for the
woods each man with long flint
lock rifle in the hollow of his arm,
skin-cap on his head.
At either end of the stockade a
watch-tower of oak became visible
and in each sleepy sentinel yawned
and shifted the welcome smell of
frying venison below him.
A girl climbing the rude ladder to
the tower stopped midway.

A voice vibrant with sarcasm rose
from one of the women about the

was framed deep-eyed, deep-breast-
