Kimball, superintendent of the life saving service, tally lost during the last fiscal year. At the close of the last fiscal year the es- tablishment embraced 24 stations. Four hundred and twenty-seven vessels, carrying 3,565 persons, were wrecked, of whom 3,542 were save? and 23 lost. Six hundred and sixty-three shipwrecked persons received succor at the stations. The estimated value of the vessels in- volved in the disasters was $6,414,000, and that of their cargoes $1,684,000. Of ‘this amount, $6,442,505 was saved and $1,655,370 lost. In no instance was there any failure in duty on the part of the life saving crews, and the persons who perished were entirely beyond the reach of human aid. Mr. Kimball states that the fears ex- men on account of the meagerness of their pay, have heen dispelled by the recent in- crease granted by Congress, and that this, j together with the continued observance of the law requiring that appointments “shall be made solely with reference to fitness.and without reference to political or party affil- Jations,” enables the service to obtain the best qualified men whenever recruits are needed. The terrific storms that swept the Atlan- spring and late summer recently furnish Mr. Kimball with a reason for calling at- tention to the necessity of prolonging the active season of the service through May and beginning it in August. A BIG GAME Of Foot Bi Tomorrow Between Georgetown and University of V winia. at foot ball that has taken place this year ;in the District, and bids fair even to rival in interest the great Thanksgiving day game, is the game tomorrow at National Park, when Georgetown University meets her old rival, the University of Virginia, for the college championship of the south. The two teams have met once before this season and the blue and gray triumphed over the orange and blue by the close score of 28 to 24. As both teams have been prac- ticing hard ever since, Virginia under Poe of Princeton, and Georgetown under Wag- gonhurst of Pennsylvania, and as each have had one game since—Virginia meeting and defeating the Trinity College of North Car- olina, and Georgetown succumbing to the cadets after a hard and well fought battle— it is no idle prophecy that the game will be stubbornly fought from beginning to end and that the score.will be small and close. | What makes the game doubly interesting in the fact that the University of Virginia | had defeated all the clubs bidding to be the champions of the south up to the time she met Georgetown November 4, when she | lowered her colors for the first time. if Georgetown wins tomorrow she will have the championship in her possession. The Virginians, knowing this, will strive hard to win the game, thereby meking the teams epual as to games won and necessi- tating the playing of a third game for the championship. Georgetown has had secret practice for the past week, none but students of George- town being allowed to be witnesses of i Coach Waggonhurt has worked wonders with the team, considering the short time he has been with them. He has gotten them down to strict training and hard practice, | and has taught them many new tricks. The Georgetown team has been changed mate- ally for this game. The result will only be known whén the teams line up. Capt. Carmody, wishing to work it as a sort of pleasant surprise to the admirers of. the blue and gray.

Zalinski of the army is not going to Brazil on the El Cid for the purpose of operating the big dynamite gun forming the principal part of the armament of that vessel.

Secretary-Trensurer Hayes’ Charges Before the K. of L. General Assembly. PHILA cs.PHIA, Nov. 16.—What occur- | red at this morning's session of the Gen- | eral Assembly, Knights of Lobor, and what was given out are two different things. The press committee stated, during the | Poon recess, that everything was of a pacific nature, but judging from the noise heard from without the “secret chamber” matters assumed an entirely different phase. That the announced charge of Gen- | eral Secretary-Treasurer Hayes against the general executive board, in which he asks | why the latter body appropriated a sum, said to be $30,000, to the use of the orde> in- stead of applying it to the aid of the Home- stead, Tennessee and Coeur D'Alene strikers, | came up, was admitted by one of the dele. gates, but what action was taken could not be learned. Congressman John Davis (Kan.), a mem- | ber of the executive board, left before the | noon adjournment. He said that he would | prepare a statement this evening for pub- | lication, which would deal with the charges of the general secretary-treasurer, and which would also outline the affairs of the jer. he announcement of the press committee was simply that # number of resolutions had been appropriately referred.
