The ‘“Cap,’ " Jeader of the immortal Chicago White Stockings, ever entertained a fond- ness for his native town,and on one of his visits to Marshalltown, away back in 1883, he saw a young feller named Billy Sunday playing on an ‘amateur club.

It was while he was a member of the famous Chicago aggregation that Billy Sunday heard the - call to a rightepus life. With a bunch of the fellows he was meandering down a Windy City thoroughfare when they came to a corner where a strect preacher was exhorting his fellowmen. The bunch stopped to listen to the speaker, who was Harry Monroe, of the Pacific Garden Mission, and Sun- day was so impressed that he ac- sion in Van Buren street. Billy" companions gave him the merry haw- haw, but Sunday went and was con- verted. Sunday has always declared that he found a prayer a great ald to him as a ball player, and in his sermons he cites as an example an incident which occurred during a game with Detroit. Charlie Bennett, of Detroit, knocked out what appeared to be a home run, at a decisive point of the game. Sunday went after it, and as he ran, he says, he prayed as follows: ) God, I'm in an awful hole. If | you ever helped a mortal man in your life, help me to get that pill. And, O Lord, you ain't got muc time to make up your mind, cither Billy swears that he got the ball, al- though it seemed an impossible feat, and, like the Kaiser in war, he credits his victory to God.

WEEGHMAN Chares Morphy Explodes Mine in Federals Camp. According to an announcement from Cincinnati yesterday Charles P. Taft, principal stockholder of the Chicago National league club, has broken off all negotiations with “harles Weeghman, the Federal league backer of the Chicago team, for the r=ale of the Cubs. Mr. Taft refused to extend until December 1 | an option that had been granted ! more than two weeks ago to the Windy City restaurateur. Further confirmation of the split was fur- nished by Charles W. Murphy, form- er president of the Cubs, upon his re- turn to Chicago from a conference with Weeghman, Taft and August Herrmann in Cincinnati. It was Murphy who threw the first obstacles in the way of Weeghman’s purchase of the Cubs. Weeghman wished to move this old established club from the West Side grounds to the new Federal league park of Chi- cago's North Side. Murphy, who has | a half interest in the park at the west side, interposed objection. While he had disposed of his interests in the club to Mr. Taft the latter had not paid for the stock, it is said. Murphy demanded cash with interest at" & per cent. since the transfer of his | stock to the Cincinnati publisher for $485,000 in notes. To appease Chub- by Charlie Mr. Taft depended upon a cash transaction with Weeghman. The latter evidently was not able to raise the necessary capital hefore the expiration of his option. ‘Weeghman, who appeared very much piqued over the refusal of Mr. Taft to extend the option until the first of December, told his friends in Chicago yesterday that the turndown would mean a continuation of the Federal league war to the death of one or the other faction. In the east this unexpected move of the National league is interpreted as a direct slap at the Gilmore backers. The con- { viction grows that the negotiation with Weeghman was nothing more i than strategy to determine the finan- clal strength of the enemy. August Herrmann, who conducted business for Mr. Taft, did not act in his ca- pacity of National commission chair- man. From the first the National league let it be known that Mr. Herr- mann’s dickerings were In no man- ner binding. 'WERE COING T0 WIN SAYS CAPT. TALBOTT (Ya's Best Wil Be Good Exough for Harvard.

For a slogan the Hardware City men are content with the significant word: “Revenge.” The management has ar- | ranged for a special car to take players to Hartford at 9 o'clock Thanksgiving Day and as the game will not be called until 10 o’clock they will have ample time to dress. This week there have been thre hard practices with a full team. The New Britain line will average about 180 pounds and the end positions and back fleld will be unusually fast. Frank Stingle will hold down one enl and Fenn Nourse, star end of the Wesleyan college team, will hold down the other. Henry Flanagan of Col- gate, will play quaraterback and will practice with the team next Wednes- day night upon his arrival here. The | line will be further augmented by the addition of Raymond James, of Storrs college. James is a powerful man and has a stonewall defense. Other men selected will be more than able to hold their own with the Hartford has- beens. There will be no practice tonight but tomorrow night the men will meet in the High school gym at 7 o’clock for & drill. The most important practice | of the season however, will be held at 10 o'clock Sunday morning in Hart's lot.

New Haven, Nov, 19 An hour's secret signal work on old Yale gield and forty-five minutes of hard serim- mage in the new bowl made up the final hard drill of the Yale football team before the Harvard game, The Yale lineup in the Harvard game as announced by Head Coach Frank Hinkey will be the same as that used against the Tigers. Several of the regulars spent yes- terday resting. Aleck Wilson, th veteran quarterback, did not report because of a lame knee. Stillman spent the time running up and down the side lines. His lameness has near- ly disappeared and he is expected to start the game Saturday. Walden, whose right arm was badly twisted Tuesday, took part in a scrimmage, but his arm bothered him consider- ably. L The regulars won the scrimmage from the scrubs, 14 to 7. Ainsworth made the first varsity touchdown after he and LoGore had advanced the ball thirty yards, while Scovil ran eighty yards for the second touch- down. Alnsworth kicked the goals in- stead of LeGore and tallled on each of his tries. For the scrubs, Ovitt by « (Continued on Ninth Page.)
