Coun- Rrookline, Mass, Nov. 4—The Har- vard_cross-country runners defeated the Yale team today by a score of 23 to 33. The rac which was held over the Chestnut Hill course of six miles, was run during a heavy rainstorm. This interfered with the ram.ers. but spite of it Captain Jaques of the rimson came within filve seconds of the course record.

New Haven, Nov. 4.—In announcing the Yale lineup for Saturday's game with Brown, Captain Daly of the Yale eleven placed himself at ght half- back, though it is not expected that he will play the entire game. The stralned muscle in his side is painful and the coaches fear that he may add to the injury if he plays the full four periods. ~When he leaves the game Baker will take his place. Kilpatrick, the all-American end. will not enter the game. but will be on the fleld.

The fter-election revival is almost a tra- dition as_is the pre-election flurry, nd the sfock market is sald to be'd ing such a movement. Relief unsettiement with the passing of the elections is looked for in business much as in the stock speculation. Rumors have accumulated of business 1ctivities that are to be released with the passing of -the political tumult. railroads especially are said_to waiting the opportunity of reiief political exigencies jo place their i orders from materfal.

If the weather man pernl“'s, this afternoon Windham High school's foot- ball team will be-down here for @ re- turn game with the Norwich Free Academy on the Academy campus. When the teams met before, at Willi- mantic, they. went to a scoreless tie, but both teams have improved greatly on their game since then, and are key- ed up to snatch a victory out of the .coming game. £ ‘Windham High is recognized gs hav- inz a good string of backfield men, who will make trouble for the Academsy, if touchdiwrs re tc_be prevented, but the Academy line is expected to out- play their Windham opponents, and the game ought to be a hummer all the way. 7 g With tho teams closely matched, neither can afford to make any mis- takes, for the opponents will be on the alert to take advantage of any slips, {ana it may take only one such upset o turn the tide gne way or the other.

Boston Bicycle Race Finishes Tonight —Jokus_and Schiller Slip Back. Boston, Nov. 4—The six day bicycle race at the Arena was contested to- night by two equal divisions of five teams each, the Jokus-Schiller team during the evening having regained three laps, which brought them on even terms with four other combina- tions in second place. The sprinting of Jokus was largely responsible for the team’s success in regaining lost ground. The standing of the teams was un- changed at the end of the night's rac- ing, exceph that Jokus and Schiller dropped a lap and went again into last place. In the last hour Lawrence started a terrific sprint, and his partner, Wiley, pushed the lead to half a lap. great excitement until Folger, mer and Hehir brought them back. In that mixup Jokus and Schiller lost tieir lap. racing the leading five teams had cov- ered 1,124 miles 6 laps, while those tled for sixth place were one lap be- hind. Jokus and Schiller had 1,124 miles 4 laps. The race ends tomor- row night. EDDIE COLLINS MARRIED. Athletics’ Second Baseman Joins Ranks of the Benedicts.

A mujority of well posted baseball men are of the opinion that Griffith Will get 50 per cent. the better of the Philadelphia deal. Harry Lewis will leave for England November 16. Fis last battle in this country will be with Dick Nelson in Schenectady on November 7. Captain Houser and Newashe Car- lisle, Indian football stars, are also clever on the diamond. Both have seen service in the Tri-State league. Halfback Ramsdell of Trinity has scored six touchdowns so far, and this individual record has only been equal- od by one other plaver, Mercer of Pennsylvania. St. Louis fans demand that either Fielder Jones or George Stacey Davis be placed in command of the Browns, S0 that some baseball brains may be instilled into the St. Louis team.

Now that McQuillan and Bates have cast in their lot with the Ohio club it is expected that Grant and Moren follow suit. In the meantime Rowan, Beebe, Paskert and Lobert are doubt- less wondering where they set off. Herrmann has knocked their names off 1}:2 payroll and Fogel refuses to accept them. Of Harvards' eleven, Paul one of the finest tackles and backs West Point ever had, writes as fol lows: “I do not believe that the ques- tion this year is so much can Yale beat Harvard this fall, as whether Bunker, make any kind of a contest when_the teams come together on November 19. Philadelphia _writers are censuring Pennsylvania for playing too rough a game agalnst the Carligle Indians | last Saturday. It used to be the In- dians that came in for censure cvery season for their roughness on the iron, but Glenn Warner had curbed much of this spirit in his charges since it resulted in the Redskins being dropped by many of the leading col- leges. Here's a tribute ' to Eddie Collins' batting prowess: When Cole, the Chi- cago pitcher, was picked to worl against the Athletics in the fourth game of the world’s series he went to Moredcai Brown and asked the three- fingered one how to keep Collins from hitting. - Brown’s reputed answer is worth moe than all the praise of the experts: “Put your back and sioulders in_everything you throw: put all you Lave on the ball, and pray.” Harvard has speed enough and pow- er enough to go into any game, and the task for the next three weeks is to coach the men on the points of indi vidual play and to give them the re- sourcefulness that will be needed to 2o against a team that will be as wel schooled on individual position play as the Yale men will be on Nov. 19, even if the material at New Haven is not as well adapted to make the best of the game as Harvard's seems to be.— Boston Globe. Owen Bush, shortstop of the Detroit baseball team, has a broken ankle. The fact was discovered when the injured limb was placed under an X-ray. Bush was compelled to leave the Detroit line- up for a while last fall. Hugh Jen- nings, the manager, allowed him to re- turn. ‘The ankle did not improve, and after the season closed the limb pain- ed Bush whenever he moved it. perts are treating the ankle and say Bush will be able to play again next year. Tn spite of the failure to get across the line by rushing, and in spite of other faults, Harvard impresses me as a really great team in an advanced stage of preparation. Haughton hae any number of fast, powerful bac men who can keep their feet—a wealth of kickers, a strong line, and | dashing, sure ends. There are all the elements of a football team that is fitted to rank with the best, and the Harvard team certainly looks to be on the road to the top.. I am not yet pre- pared to say that the Crimson Wwill de- feat Yale, but I know there will have to be great progress In New Haven in the little time left to stand off the Cambridge men—New York Evening Post. Connie Mack evidently feels satis- fied to stand pat with the champion Athletics for next vear, as he has se- curea pnly eight new plavers, four by draft and four by purchase.

Atlanta, Ga., Nov. to American automobile racing occur- red on the Atlanta Speedway just be- fore the start of the 100 mile race to- | day While earer, My God, to Thee, was being plaved by the grandstand | band, nine racing cars liméd up at the | starting wire. Their engines were still- el for fifteen minutes while their drivers with bared heads waited for the last prayer to be said in another part of the city at the funeral of Al Livingstone, who was killed in prac- tice for the race two days ago. After the hymn there was a long si- lence, respected by all the thousands in the enclosure. The drivers stared hard with tear-dimmed eves at, the hoods of their machines. Suddenly the band started a' two-step, the racing, engines coughed, clutches were thrown | into position and the big race was on. | Joe Dawson in a Marmon took the | lead and held it for 98 miles, when he | was nearly two minutes ahead of the: official American record for 100 miles for Class B cars. Then a shaft broke | and he stopped at the pits for repairs. | Six miles behind were his nearest riv- als, Gelnaw's F. A. L. and Knight's | Westcott car, which for ninety miles | had been running nose and nose, often | with scarcely an arm’s length aepfll‘fl.l-‘ ing them.

He was started finally by a daring feat of his mechanician, How- ard Hall. Burman's trouble was in stopping his_engine dead by throwing on the high speed too quickly. Hall grabbed the cranking rod, and speed still on gave the engine turn.

Started by London Goldsmiths In the Seventeenth Century. 4+ The business of banking was not in- troduced into England until the seven- teenth cenfury, when it began to be undertaken by goldsmiths in London, who appear to have horrowed it from Holland. It was aitacked, as innova- tions commonly are. Mr. Gilbart in his “History and Principles of Bank- ing” quotes from a pamphiet publish- ed in 1676, entitled “The Mystery of the New Fashioned Goldsmiths or Bankers Discovered,” a passage that may be reproduced: “Much about the same time of the civil commotion—the gold- smiths, (or new fashioned bankers) be- gan to Teceivo {he reuts of gentlemen’s estates remitted to town and to allow them and others who put cash into their hands some interest for it if it remained but a single month in their | bands or even a lesser time. There ‘was a great allurement to put money into their hands. which would bear interest till the day they wanted If, and they could also draw it out by £100 or £30, etc.. at a time as they wanted it with infinitely less troubie than If they had lent it out on either real or personal security. The conse- quence was that it quickly brought a great quantity of cash info their hands, so that the chief or greatest of them was now enabled fo supply Cromwell with money in advance on | the revenues as his occasion required upon great advantages to themselves.” Tired of It. “What's your name?’ the three oth- er men asked him. “John Potter,” answered the stran- ger, who had accepted an invitation to take the fourth hand in a game of cards. “That's all right.
