CURRENT SPORTING NOTES The Gallaudet eleven proved too heav: for the Eastern Hgh School in the football game at Kendall Green yesterday after- noon between these two teams, and the score at the close of the second half was 18 to 0 in their favor. The Eastern team made a much better showing against the mutes than they did in their first game, and better than the Central High School team did, as the latter were defeated 2t to 0, when the boys at Kendall Green were without the services of Left End Price, and this will allow some slight line to be had on the respective strength of the two schools. During the first Half the contest was pretty even, the Gallaudets securing a tcuch-down and a goal, and the ball being sent back and forth most of the time. The half ended with it rather too near the nutes’ goal for comfort, but the call of time prevented the High School boys from fellowirg up the advantage. Price, who is now playing left end for the Gallaudets, tinguished himself by his fine tackling and running, while Rosson and Wornstaft, the haif backs, also showed good speed. The Gallaudets added twelve more to their sccre in the second half, and the ball came into the po: ion of the Capitol Hill boys but once. The heavy weight of the Gallauéet eleven toid in the rushes, ant work as hard as they might, the terns covld rot keep back the riushes made and the openings forced for the fleet backs. For the Eastern team Kelly probably put up the best game. His tackling was fine, and he showed good head work throughout. Srell, S. Maupin and Meigs also put up a good game, but individual efforts were un- availing against the concentrated strength of their opponents. A large gathering was in attendance to see the game, many of whom were High School girls, and good plays were liberally applauded. ne teams lined up as follow Kendal. E. HLS Price... I J.

Put a fumble 1 out calculations and turned the Princeton rooters never smiled again during the first half. Miller, the lithe end Tush of the Indian aggregation, grabbed the leather and with a war-whoop that threw every frail maiden on the grand stand into hysterics, was away like the shot of an arrow for the far-distant Prince- ten goal. It was such a run as one sees only once in a decade, recalling Suter’s famous sprint with Charlie Lrewer last an@ Lamar's great run back in the No Princeton player was near the runner, and aw went with a clear field. Church gave chase, hut the race was too unequal. A sprint of 105 yards and a touchdown at the tape were placed to the credit of the Stockridge boy, and Captain Pierce Kicked an eagy goal. This seemed to take the heart o' the Tigers. Dur- ing the entire first half they never regained it, and the Indians repeatedly dashed through the Tiger line for geod gains, and on defense were just as effective. ny the Princeton backs’ took a heroic brace hed the ball up the field to the five- rd line again, and the rooters were jarfous. But the savages metaphorically teok the bit in their teeth and stood like a stcne wall. The Tigers strained every muscle for the needed five yards, but the pigskin.went to the Indians on dcwns. Wh the most audacious display of nerve they began rushing it out of danger, and the Tiger line repeatedly gave way before their flerce aitacks. Several times the Tigers were completely winded, but the Indians were as fresh and hungry for the fray as when the game began. Their dis- play of great physical endurance was mar- velous. Down the field they rushed the leather, tearing up the Princeton line al- most at will, and had not Cayon fumbled a second touchdown seemeéd inevitable. A long kick placed the leather out of danger, and the half closed with the ball in Prince- ton’s possession on the Indians’ thirty- yard line. The teams lined up as follows: Princeton. Positions.

Yale and Williams. iste Yale played Williams at the Yale field yesterday afternoon and won by the score of 22-0. The smallest crowd of the vear was in attendance, as the sky was heavily overcast and the rain threatened to fall every minute. As it was, there was a light Grizzle during. the second half of the game, but the ground remained firm end hard throughout and afforded a good: foothold for the players. wees Harvard defeated Willams ten days ago’ by the small score of 6-0, but the difference between her score and that made by Yale yesterday can hardly be. taken as: a cri- terion of the relative strength of the two teams, for Will:ams has had three‘ of her best players injured ‘since the game with Harvard. The loss of Dibble at half-back was especially keenly felt by the Williams men, who cor sidered h'm at least the equal of Draper, who played last year. The playing was closer than thé store would indicate. Williams put up a much and snappier game than Yale, and her team work was more finished. The men all ran hard and fast, repeated- ly gaining their five yards from, Yale. The Yale team have not waked up since the game with Brown a week ago, and their slow work yesterday gave the op- ponents the start in nearly every piay. Tke game consisted of two hzlves of twenty minutes each, and Yale scored two touchdowns in each half. Foliowimg 1s the line-u; Yale. Positions. Bass. .left end. Roger: -left Chadwick . Chamberlain .

It was sold to a countess in 1869, just before the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian war. The countes Gicd in a few weeks, and the ring was worn by her husband. He was killed in the siege of Paris, ang a few days after his death the ring was brought into the ore fer sale by a common scitier. “He was arrested and the ring sent to the fam- ily of the dead count. Before the siege ended they brought in the ring and sold it to the dealer ir order to procure money to buy food. Direcily after the siege it assed into the hands of an English tour- ist who visited the city to get a Icok at the ruin wrought by the communists and a year lgter back came the stone from the Indian buyer of the firm, who, on be- irg written to and desired to tell how he got it, stated that it had been the property of an English tourist hunter who was Killed by a tiger and his friends sold the ring to get means to send the body home. ‘The. stone was reset and soon found a pur- chaser in a prominent member of the demi- monde, who not long after was murdered in her room.

REVIEWED BY ‘THE PRESIDENT ———— Archbishop Ireland in the Line of |mens cf the art; a choice more restricted Boys in Blue. ee SS A PLEASING EVENT The parade of the Union Veteran Legion yesterday afternoon was as significant as it was brilliant, and the crowds that pour- ed out to wituess its passing seemed to appreciate its character by the enthusiasm they displayed and the warm greetings they extended to the veterans and the regulars alike. The men who had upheld the honor of the nation in ’61 and who hed retired to the private walks of peace con- scious of duty well done and bearing many ‘an indelible mark in proof of this, were escorted by the soldiers of today, who would be no less eager and willing to de- fend the flag they love so dearly. There Was no difference save that of age and uniform in the masses that marched down the avenue, and the beat of the drums that brought reminiscences to the minds of the elders accentuated in those of the younger men their patriotic devotion to the service they represented. The formation of the procession was car- ried out in accordance with the program published in yesterday’s Star, and the linc moved off smoothly at the appointed time. At lith street carriages containing the disabled veterans and a number of invited guests, including Archbishop Ireland, fell in at the rear of the veter: - Reviewed by the President. President Cleveland reviewed the parade from the front portico of the White House. He was attended by Colonel Wilson, Pri- vate Secretary Thurber and his private messenger, Mr. Chas. Loeffler. Lieutenant Beyle and two sergeants, with fifteen men, managed the crowd in the vicinity of the mansion.At one of the upper windows Mrs. Cleveland, with Marion and Mrs. Thurber, looked on the scene, and at another win- dow Ruth and her, with their Ue Esther was particularly en- nd consiantly waved her hands ng soldiers, President Cleve his silk hat as each Americ: we pa land lifte: a flag came by and returned the salutes of officers, as well as the bows of Archbishop Ireland and his companions with a slight Inclination of the head. leaving the White House procession passed west and south of the y building and moved down Penn- avenue between crowds of people as dense and large as those seen on inauguration day. Commissioners Ross, Powell and Truesdell reviewed the parade from the balcony of the Union Veteran Legion Hall, at #10 Pennsylvania avenue, and were joined by Archbishop Ireland when his carriage arrived there. The pro- cession disbanded at the Peace monument, and the crowds that were still on the avenue were treated to a stirring sight when the 6th Cavalry swept up the avenue at a quick trot.

Notwithstanding the thousands of profes- sional photographers in this country and the tens of thousands of amateurs, it is ex- tremely difficult to obtain such a collection outside of certain narrow limits. There are innumerable photographs of actors ond actresses, some of them beautiful spe in regard to both numbers and quality is offered in views of well-known places and scenery, and there are the large and beau- uful photegraphic reproductions of paint- ings, most of which are imported from Evrope. But outside of these iines it is not easy to find anything so striking and crigi- pal as to offer a fair promise of profit to the publisher. The development of the half-tone e gr: ng process has brought about a s.tuation n regard to phoiographs which i» analo- gous to that of the book pubiisher. A cheap and effective means of reproduction is at hand, and there seems to be a public demand for the pictures; but publishers can’t find the proper pictures to reproduce, encountering, in this respect, the same dif- ficulty that the book publisher has in dis- covering a successful novel. There is plenty tu show that the public is hankering after material of this kind. Several rival publishers reproduced the photoxsraphs of the world’s fair in serial form, and most of them mado !arge profits. The edition print- ed by one firm is said to have exceeded 0,000 copies at the close, and the mem- bers of the firm are said to have made a fertune out of the scheme in less than a year, Their success drew other publishers into the same field, and various aibums and collections of the same geveral character have been put upon the market since then. Bad management has made costly failures of some of the enterprises, in genera} there has been enough success to indicate a large appetite on the part of the public for cheap art in this form. - The thing which, more than anything else, has kept the market from being flocd- ed by publications of this kind fs the dif ew Kidneys * —money can’t bring back N * * your health and strength, .* * When Yow are ready to * topple over death's preci- * pice with Bright's disease. * “Prevention” is the best * remedy.
