YESTERDAY’S FOQTBALI, 66M ES.

Pennsylvania Defeats Cornell in n
Hard-Fought Battle.

Philadelphia, Nov. 26.——The Uni-
versity of Pennsylvania and the Cor-
nell football teams played their annual
Thanksgiving game on Franklin Field
yesterday afternoon.

Thebetting was very quiet. The
Quakers bet even money that Cornell
would not score. It was well—nigh im—
possible to’get any one to bet that Cor—
nell would win, and the few wagers
that were made on the Ithacans were
with heavy odds on Pennsylvania.

'VVhen the teams lined up about twen-
ty thousand spectators were on the
field. Pennsylvania ran on the field at
3.02 o’clock, followed by Cornell.
Corns-ll won the toss for selection of
cal, and selected the east end, having

slight advantage over the southeast

Wind, thereby.

The Quakers were surprised at the
remarkable showing made by Cornell
at the start, and when time was called
,for the first half the ball was in
Pennsy’s thirty-yard line, the score be-
ing: Pennsylvania, 0; Cornell, 0.

Not a cheer was raised by the dis-
couraged Quakers between halves.
Woodruff urged his men to play a hard
game in the second half, and strive to
wind the Cornellians.

Cornell’s play in the first half showed
theeleven to be the best ever turned
out iry Ithaca, and fully equal to Har-
Val‘tl

Tie second half started at 3.13
oicZJck, and was a fast and hard-
fovght battle to the finish. The
Quakers had the advantage of the
wind, but wet ground made long runs

5;
Fl

:rngerous.

When time was called the ball was in
midfield.

Final score: Pennsylvania, 4; Cor-
nell,,0.

Lafayette, 22; Lehigh, 0.

South Bethlehem, Nov. 26.—Lafayette
and Lehigh played a spirited game of
football here yesterday afternoon be-
fore a tremendous crowd. Lehigh went
In the fight to keep Lafayette’s score
below that of the first game this sea-
son, and did so. Lafayette played
without W'albridge, her star halfback,
and in consequence was weakened by
the displacing of her line, Duffey going
to halfback and Chalmers taking his
place at tackle.
called on to do star work, and came up
to the demand every time. He played
a beautiful game. Shortly after the
contest opened he got the ball for a
run around the end and made thirty
yards, carrying the ball- dangerously
near the Lehigh line. The latter. made
. a. brave stand and kept their opponents
off for a time, but V’Veidenmeyer‘ finally
» went through for touchdown. Rinehart
kicked a goal.

Inlthe next play there was some kick-
ing of the ball on both sides, Lehigh
resorting to this to keep the ball from
her goal line. VVeidenmeyer, however,
plunged through the centre for fifteen
ayards and a touchdown, from which
Rinehart kicked a goal. The half end—
ed: Lafayette, 12; Lehigh, 0.

Lehigh braced up in the second half,
and for ten minutes it was a pretty
exhibition. Then VVeidenmeyer, by a
succession of short runs, aided by good
interference by Rinehart, Boyd and
Herr, scored a touchdown, Rinehart
kicking the goal. There was another
touchdown made by Werthington fif-
teen minutes later, bringing the score
up to 22.

The try at goal failed and the game
ended: Lafayette, 22; Lehigh, O.

 

MICHAEL AN EASY WINNER.

“Tel-h Cycling Wonder Too Much
For Starbuek.

New York, Nov. 26.—Scalps are no
new things with little Jimmy Michael,
the Welsh racing wonder. He got an-
other last evening from Frank Star-
bu'ck, the Quaker, defeating him round-
ly in a twenty-five-mile paced race in
Madison Square Garden 'before the
largest crowd ever gathered in the
amphitheatre to witness a bicycle race.

At the end of the contest the diminu—

'tive flyer was a trifle over two miles
in the lead, Starbuck having fall-en be-
hind continually after the second mile,
when he led for two laps. The winner’s
time was 50m. 291-55., which is pretty
fast traveling, although not near the
record.

The track was nine laps to the mile,
and the manner in which the principals
and their pacing men flew around the
corners was enough to make _one’s hair
stand on end. Women he; their
breath, men looked serious and Us
younger element cheered when the
turns were made, and when, the cracks
flew up the straights everybody seemed
in duty bound to shout. It was a great
night for the sport _of cycling. It es-
tablished beyond any doubt that racing
on wheels has found a warm place in
the hearts of those who love a contest
In which a steady nerve, muscle and
speed win applause,

At the end of the race Michael was
going like a streak, while Starbuck,
over two miles in the' rear, pedaled as
if he had no interest in the contest
whatever.

The fastest mile was the ninth,

' which was covered in 1.57 2-5. The sec-

ond mile, when Starbuck led, was done
in ’2.05 1-5. The winner received $1,400
for his fifty'minutes’ ‘work and the
loser got $600. Each man had the
privilege of using as many pacemak—
ers as he desired, and each had about
thirty, mounted on tandems and trip-
ets. .

Blizzard in Nebraska.
‘Omaha, Neb., Nov. 26.-—-Last evening
the mercury dropped to zero. and a
fearful gale from the northwest swept
fine particles of snow in every direction
throughout Nebraska.

The snow'is piling up in huge drifts
in the streets, impeding'all kinds of
traffic. Out in the State the situation
is even worse.

In the extreme western part of the
State the fiercest sort of a blizzard ex—
ists, and more damage is threatened
to stock interests than at any time this
Fall. \ '. ,

Durrant May “Die Soon.

San Francisco, Nov. 26.—Assistant
Attorney-General Carter will appear in
the Supreme Court to-morrow and ask
that the stay of ,executionin the case
of Blanche Lamont’s murderer, Dun
rant, be vacated. If this motion is
granted, Durrant will be taken before
Judge Bohrs on Monday and again
sentenced to death. Fifteen days will
be allowed to the murderer before he

is hanged.
,It is probable that he will die before

 

Ian. 1, as his attorneys have exhausted" "

every resource to save him.

Many Norwa‘lk People Give
Expression to it-and with
Good Results.

 

The remarkable cures accomplished
in N orwalk during the last seven
months are Something to astonisn and
convince the most Skeptical. N0 won-

‘ der the people believe in it; no wonder

a. prominent. druggist lately said: “Be-
lief in California Catarrh Cure is an
article of faith in the Norwalks, be-
cause people know for themselves, with-
out regard to what- any interested par-
ties say, of cures it has wrought among
their friends and neighbors.”

Why I People have sufi'ered for years
and never dreamed they could get any
relief by using anything and some day
a friend says: “California Catarrh
Cure cured me, it will cure you, and
you won’t have to wait to find out about
it- either. It relieves at once.”

Here are the words of one of our
neighbors now, telling why she believes
in it. You know that it is true because
you know her.

Mrs. John Lycett, 21 High street,
Norwalk, says: “My daughter, Violet,
has been troubled since childhood with
catarrh, until- her whole head seemed
more or less diseased. She had be-
gun to be a little deaf, and suifered
much with severe headaches so that
we have had to keep her out. of
school a good deal. I sent her to
Plaisted’s drug store, South Norwalk
after a bottle of California Catarrh
Cure and she commenced using it. Its
beneficial effects have been simply
wonderful." It has helped her from the
first in every way. I have not heard
her complain of a headache for a long
time. and by the time she had finished
herfirst bottle, I feel confident that
she will be cured.”

When California Catrrrh Cure, is
used colds never “hang on,” but disap-
pear promptly. .For all mucous dis-
eases. All dealers, 50 cents, three
times as much, one dollar.

 

 

Archer’s Fine Shot.

“Then Fred Archer, England’s fa-
mous jockey, once consulted one of
England’s most famous surgeons, the
surgeon said: '

“You must not think me rude, Mr.
Archer, but I take no interest in any
branch of sport, and I have never
heard your name."

“Well, said Archer, I hope you won't
think me rude, either; but till a friend
advised me to consult you, I hat. never
heard your name, either, and when I
asked my friend who you were, he said,
‘He is the Fred Archer of the surgical
profession.’ ” '

Something Sacred.
“Nothing is ’sacred to these profes-

sional jokers.” _
“Oh, yes. The old jokes.”—-Phi1a-
ielphia North American. ,
A Vancouver Indian recently shot
ind slightly wounded a. “scorcher”
thinking that he was the devil. The
ludge hated to convict the Indian, but
