Coal Mined in Great Britain Since Year 1899

The first charter giving liberty to
the town of Newcastle-upon-the-T
to dig coal was granted by Henry III
in 1899, and was denominated "sea
coal" on account of its being shipped
to places at a distance. In the year
1881, this trade had so extended that
laws were passed for its regulation.
In Scotland coal was worked at
about the same time and charter
was granted in 1891, in favor of the
abbot and convent of Dumfermline, in
the county of Fife, giving the right Of
digging coal to the lands of Pitten-
crieff, adjoining the convent.
Coal began to be used for smelling
about the beginning of the Seven
teenth century.
The working of coal gradually in
creased until the beginning Of the
Eighteenth century, when the steam
engine was brought forward In the
year 1705, and was applied to col
lieries in the vicinity of Newcastle
about the year IT'S. This engine pro-
duced a new era In the mining con-
Germs at Great Britain and collieries

Biblical "Slips"

Our recent note on clergyman's
discovery that Bible verse ran:
"Gird up thy lions" instead of 'loins,"
brought from correspondents letters
concerning other errors that have
slipped into this and kindred religious
works. Thus in one Bible an error in
punctuation made certain passage
run: "The wicked flee, when no man
pursueth the righteous, is as bold as
lion"
And the omission of letter In a
passage in the Book of Common Prayer
made it run: "We shall all be hanged
in the twinkling of an eye."-Boston

lust right when it makes that sort of
run against a strong opponent. There
after Alabama was threatening to score
constantly, but could not quite put the
thing across.
TULANE did mighty well against a
J. strong Kentucky team. Tulane has
suffered disappointments, but came
on in good shape and the great zim-
norman got in another OF his brilliant
runs for 81 yards.
One of the hardest games to be
played all year was that between Ten
nessee and Vanderbilt. I think these
two teams last Saturday were about
as good as any in the country. Botn
had brilliant punting, good running at
tacks and good passing, and both were
exceptionally fine on the defense
against the running game and also de-
tending against passes.
Vanderbilt completed two out OF
nine passes, and intercepted four; Ten
nesSee completed two out Of ten and
intercepted one. Talley, in his first ex-
perience at punting. kicked brilliantly,
and Feathers showed himself to be
one of the country's greatest punters
by unusual height, distance and con-
sistency.
Vanderbilt had improved greatly IN
handling ends going down under punts
and this, coupled with the brilliant
handling of punts by Roberts, gave
Vanderbilt a great advantage in the
return of kicks.
Feathers played His punts excep-
tionally well and would have kicked
away from the majority Of backs. 1t
took a great back like Roberts to cover
the field on punts.
The tackling of Tennessee's sec
ondary was as good as I have ever
witnessed. Feathers, Wynn and Naples
and Middleton, after Wynn left the
game, were simply wonderful in coming
up to meet the play, and in deadly,
sure tackling.

BY the Associated Press.
TIME finish flag beckoned for a
score of the Nations leading
foot ball teams today and
brought as many others one
game closer to the end of spectac-
ular campaign.
Vital struggles were programmed in
every section of the country, affecting
the title hopes of Michigan, Purdue,
Auburn, Texas Christian, Nebraska,
Pitt, Utah and the University of Cali
fornia at Los Angeles.
And vieing for national interest were
host Of traditional duels, headlined
by the renewal of the ancient gridiron
fueds of Harvard and Yale and Cali
fornia and Stanford and two outStand-
ing intersectional clashes in the meet
ings of Notre Dame and Navy and
Oregon State and Fordham.
The end of the Big Ten trail found
Michigan, undefeated and united, facing
Minnesota in the game that was to
decide whether the Wolverines were to
gain undiSputed possession OF the
championship. Purdue, apparently as
sured of victory over Indiana, was
ready to share or win the title out
right should Michigan be tied or beaten.

Pitt, one of the East's leaders, was
heavily favored over Carnegie Tech. as
was Utah, Rocky Mountain Conference
pace-setter, over the Colorado Aggies,
in the Indians closing game. The Uni
versity' of California at Los Angeles
expected no trouble from Montana in
it's drive toward share, with Southern
California, in the Pacific Coast title.
Notre Dame ruled a heavy favorite
over the Navy despite the latter's much
improved showing in the Columbia and
Maryland games. Fordham, which
conquered st. Mary's Gaels earlier in
the season, was picked over much
beaten Oregon State, although the Far
Westerners themselves were confident.
THE Harvard-Yale and Stanford
J. California attractions brought to-
gether four of the seasons most
disappointing outfits, but there was no
visible leSsening in public interest in
these traditional contests.
Lafayette and Lehigh. Villanova and

Boston University were other leading
Eastern pairings.
The Big Tens closing program was
completed by the meetings of Ohio

"A val Academy foot ball team, playing
against Notre Dame at Cleveland
this afternoon, will he without, for the
only time this season, the support of the
1900 midshipmen of the regiment. The
regiment has accompanied the squad on
every trip up to this time and will, of
course, be at Philadelphia two weeks
from today to see the game with the
Army team, but the matter of expense
caused them to stay at home today.
However, the midshipmen will do the
next best thing by getting the news of
the game over the wire while they are
attending the contest between the plebes
and Cook Academy, an outstanding jun
ior contest. The Plebes have not only
won all their games this season, but
have not been scored against. Cook,
the leading school team of the country
last year. has won five games this sea-
son and lost only 10 the Colgate

to score at least twice to win.
The Purdue Indiana game assumes a
great deal of Importance owing to the
fact that Purdue needs this game for
the championship if Michigan is defeat

long standing. On form, Purdue should
take Indiana easily. However, this is
bitter feud.
The Illinois-Ohio State meeting is
going to be foot ball game. A month

be nothing to it. Since that time Ohio

In the past 10 years nothing con-

M Today marks the end of the
Vl foot ball season for most
of the teams in the Middle
West and rings down the curtain on
the Big Ten games. Some Of the con-
tests are of Importance primarily be-
cause of the championship, others be-
cause they are the grand finale be-
tween natural rivals of the Conference.
The outstanding game will be the
Michigan-Minnesota meeting. Michi-
gan, a great team, has come steadily
along this year, piling up one victory
after another, but needs win over
the GopherS to have a clear title to
the Conference championship.
Michigan has the best chance for a
clear title to the championship since
it has neither lost nor tied a game.
Purdue has not been defeated, but was
tied by Northwestern.
THE Michigan Minnesota game is
l. going to be classic. There is no
team that Minnesota would rather
beat than Michigan and this year it
means even more because it would give
them a chance to knock Michigan out
of title. The rivalry is just as in
tense on Michigan's part.
The Michigan team matured early in
the season and has not displayed any,
thing in the way of brilliancy in the
latter half. Its defense has been par
ticularly good. only one touchdown this
season having been scored against it.
This is something to remember when
taking into consideration Minnesota's S
chances of winning. The Minnesota
team, therefore, must necessarily have
O great line.
Michigan uses siX-man line defense
most of the time, and this year it is
reinforced by a great rowing center in
Bernard, undoubtedly as fine a center
as there is in the conference. Mich
igan, likewise, has a great pair OF ends,
IS well fortified with backheld reserves,
and has a great kicker and passer in
Newman It's bucking strength Is just
fair, but Is well fortified with pass re-
ceivers. Both the ends and the back
held are ball receivers.
WHAT has Minnesota to throw al

powerful team. It can match Michigan
In strength at the ends. Robinson

ONLY HARDY DARE
PREDICT WINNERS
Seasons Records Count for
Little as Traditional
Rivals Clash.
BY HERBERT w. BAKER,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

N JEW YORK, November 10
M A small but exceedingly
Y select array of traditional
contests stares foot ball
prognosticators in the face today
and makes even the hardest
tremble.
When the slate includes such
games as Yale-Harvard, Lehigh-
Lafayette, Pitt-Carnegie, Colum-
bia-Syracuse, Temple Villanova
and others of similar nature, sea-
sons records count for virtually
nothing.
Nevertheless, the dope" indicates O
clear edge for some of these outfits.
Here's how the big games shape up:
Yale -Harvard-A traditional battle Of
two well beaten outfits, with the finger
of favoritism pointing hesitantly at
Yale. There's no disputing the Ellis
demonstrated in their tie with Princeton
last week that they've come along fast
since the dark days Of October. Har-
ward likewise came back to trim Holy
Cross after the 46-0rout by Army This
game may be decided in the air, for
neither has shown an effective defense
against passes.
DITT-CARNEGIE-This Is the one
L game Carnegie wants to win, but
1t Will take more than hope to whip
Pitt, one Of the EaSt's finest machines.
The PantherS now are In the throes Of
shake-up as a result of the Scoreless
tie with Nebraska, but, even so, they
look plenty of touchdowns better than
Carnegie.
Columbia -Syracuse young
team gets better and better as the sea-
son progresses, but Columbia seems def
nitely stronger
Temple -Villanova--Temple, unbeaten
but twice tied, may find its record
smashed by Villanova outfit defeated
only by intersectional opponents, South
Carolina and Detroit.
Lafayette-Lehigh--B have suf-
fered disastrous seasons, but compara-
tive showings against Rutgers in the
Middle Three series make Lafayette the
favorite.
Georgetown -Bucknell - GEORGETOWN
still is looking for its first major VIC
tory of the season, and there's small
reason to believe the Hoyas can take"
Bucknell.
Navy-Notre Dame-Navy is on the
upgrade, but who oiares pick the Tars
against Notre Dame?
EORDHAM- OREGON STATE - The
i better record belongs to Fordham,
but oregon State, along with most other
Far Western teams, makes a habit of
winning intersectional games Ford
ham, just the same, is the choice
Army-West Virginia Wesleyan-A
"breather" for the Army before the
Notre Dame and Navy duels, but Wes-
sleyan should make creditable showing.
Marquette Washington and Jefferson
Here's one that appears close, with
Marquette the indicated winner.
Manhattan-Holy CroSs-The Cru
saderS should win handily, but Manhat-
tan, coached by Chick Meehan, should
make them fight for every point.
Boston College Boston University
Boston Colleges annual "tune-up"
game before meeting Holy Cross.
Rutgers Springfield has
strong eleven, but Rutgers should
wind up her season with another
victory.
