Sometimes in Jail and Sometimes Out —Man Escapes From the Chain Gang. < ne Bands p Road Race of To be a “county prisoner” in the Alex- i andria jail is evidently a “dead soft snap,” the Printers. at least the experience of Harry Candler, the Jackson City gambler, would prove this to be the case. It is said that Candler takes an airing whenever he desires so to do, and is at present walking around at large, although, according to the records in the Alexandria county court, he is sup- posed to be serving a year in the jail, hav- ing been sentenced by that court on the 28th of February last. Candler was taken to the Alexandria jail, which is also used for county prisoners. Today he is “out on leave,” it is said, with the permission of Sh Palmer. tory is an amusing one, and a com- mentary on Alexandria county justice. Sheriff Palmer is sald to be an ardent admirer of Candler, and Tuesday last he went to the jail to call on him. After they had had a short conversation Palmer went to Turnkey Hayes and said that he wonld take Candler out for a little exercise. This request “sort of queered” the turnkey, and he refused to accede to it. Sheriff Palmer insisted, however, and Sheriff Smith was called up over tke “‘’phone” and told of the request. Sheriff Smith told Hayes that as Candler was a county prisoner the sher- iff of the county could do as he pleased later on, when Crowdis worked up, it was about an even thing.’ Armstrong played by far the best game of the year, and had Murray, Yale’s weak spot, at his mercy. The latter could neither break through nor block, and was invariably a mark for Princeton’s push plays. Another walkover was the contest be- tween Gailey and Chamberlain. The latter was never in the game with his vis-a-vis, and was buffeted about until his friends felt sorry for him. Right here in these three center positions, therefore, Yale was weak enough to lose without any other fauits. Brokaw, at Princeton's left end, played a fierce, aggressive game all the way through, and was far more effective in pro- viding interference than Connor. The lat- ter, for an inexperienced player, did well, but he was clearly at sea when it came to scientific foot ball. Back of the Idne, Back of the lne, barring Fincke, Yale's weakness was apparent early in the first half. Fincke’s passing was excellent, ani he caught punts, making only a single muff. But whenever he tried to run with the ball he was nailed in his tracks by the Prince- ton ends.

There- fore these handicaps proved too much for the particular defense that the Princeton coachers had planned, as, though it might have been effective on a dry fleld, tt was clearly out of place. This little miscalcu- lation, although quickly rectified, was re- sponsible for Yale's only touchdown. The mishap was enough to rattle an ordi- nary team, but not so with the hardened Jerseymen. Capt. Cochran, too, showed his coolness of judgment right away and changed the plan of action in less time than it takes to tell it. He saw that a kicking game would prove disastrous, be- cause Yale had prepared to offset such tac- tics by practicing breakirg through and blocking punts. Although he knew that Baird was a wonderful kicker, he realized that sentiment cut no figure and that some- thing must be done quickly.

The latter was most effect- ive in hitting the line, and had the honor of making the last touch-down of the day. Smith, at quarter back, was in the game at every stage. His tackling was superb, and he backed up Baird splendidly. Once he distinguished himself by taking the ball from Baird, after the latter had been tack- led, and running almost seventy yards through the entire Yale eleven before being tackled from beaind by Benjamin. The latter clearly prevented another touch- down, for Smith had nobody between him- self and Yale's goal line when he was thrown. Considering the wet oval, Smith passed well and gave his signals with great coolness and few mistakes. He played a better ie, all things considered, Fincke, the Yale quarter back, although the latter was one of the New Haven stars. The meeting between Bass and Cochran was interesting, and the conclusion was that honors were about even. Cochran played the whole game, although his shoul- der was hurt a bit. The Princeton coach- ers were worried about him, and they said that he had a weak nerve in his shoulder and that if it was struck in any way he would have to leave the field. But, for- tunately for the Tigers, the gallant captain was not seriously banged up, and remained with them to share the victory. Bass was everywhere, like Cochran, and saved Yale from a shut-out by a quick maneuver ufter ‘Chadwick had locked Baird's punt early in the first half. His tackling was hard and true, but there were many times when he was pocketed by Princeton's wonderful interference, which allowed one of the backs to get around his end. Although great things had been expected from Rodgers, he did not begin to play his game. The reason for this wi that oj posed to him was one of the best tackles Princeton has had since the days of Hector Cowan.

The first definite announcement from Captain General Weyler since he has taken the field in person in the province of Pinar del Rio, Cuba, was secured by the cor- respondent of El, Liberal of Madrid, in an interview with the captain general at Jaca, near San Cristobal, Saturday. Gen. Weyler asserted that he was highly pleased with the results of his campaign in Pinar del Rio so far. He announced that he expected to remain to conduct act- ive operations in Pinar del Rio province for fifteen or twenty days longer, adding: “Wait until Christmas. By that time we shall have dealt a mortal blow to the revo- lution.” When asked about the whereabouts of Antonio Maceo, Gen.
