Canadians Beaten in Hockey. istic of This Season. New York, Dec. 26.—The appearance of the stock market today, after the triple heliday, was hardly changed and traoing was in the same dull movement as during the preceding week. WIith few exceptions, price movements were | coly nominal.’ The market remeined | in the hands of professional Opernlon‘ and thero were no indications of the entrance of a mew element for the | present At this period, beiween the Christmas holiday and the turn of the year, such a nparrow, dull market as 1oday’s was not unnatural, in view of the fact that bankers and business men in general are concerned largely with maldng plans for the year-end and the adjustments which it involves. Interest in_the fluctuations of Stocke is restricted for the time, and with no occurrences over the holiday to influ- cnce the market trading came to a complete standstill several times dur- ing the day. The total transactions for the day were only slightly in excess ot 200,000, Trading in_bonds, which often dui talned, when transactions In stocks have diminished, was again fairly ac- tive. While the bond issues which bave been brought out recently have | been absorbed readily, and in some | ases largely scrfbed, the In- uiry from day to day for bonds which | have been on the market for some time | is said by dealers to be less active | than might have been expected in view of the large dividend and interest dis- bursements next week. Among the few stocks which moved widely today Lehigh Valley and Great Sorthern Ore certificates were con- cpicuous. The ore certificates showed pronounced weakness early in the day, selling for a time at a decline of thr pcints. Lehigh Valley rose to the highest figure on record since it was listed in New York, but later lost more The selling was iher postponement of action In regard {0 the segregation of the coal proper- from ~ the raflroad, concerning which Wall sireet has heard recently mueh gossip, but mno authentteated statement.

WHEN A DOG WON THE GAME. Columbia’s Bull Terrier Inspired the Team to Victory Over Cornell. Writing in Great Moments of Foot- vall, Edward Lyell Fox says that something dramatic will often turn a 10uted team into a tremendous fghting force. He writes: “Another remarkable turning of & game between the halves occurrel at Ithaca in 1906. Cornell led Columbia LY 6 to 0 when the teams returned to the dressing rooms. Columbia had not recovered from a Wearing game with Princeton the week before. Many of the men wore overtrained. There was a_distinct feeling of the hopelessness of it all when the players lay down upen tha floor and benches. Only Bill, a white bull terrier mascot, showed signs of liveliness. It was cold in the dressing room and a trainer shook the ashes in the stove. He used a_ poker, the end of which became red hot. When finally he laid down the metal rod and red whitened, but the heat remained. Bill, deciding that the pok- er was to bo plaved with like a stick, caught the heated end In his mouth. Instantly his lips seared and turned Dblack. Bill only shook the poker hard- er. Two men grabbed him and tried to force him to open his mouth. But Bill fought back and finaly they had to choke him before he would loosen his grip. It was then that Coach Mor- ley nudged Captain Fisher and potnt- ed to the dog. Catching the idea, Fish- er sprang to his feet and buill up a speech around Bill. He compared Bill's rerve to the team’s and asked the men they were not ashamed of them- selves. His closing sentence was ‘Just play for Bfil, Bill Bl “When Columbla returned field, Rill, veiping furiousty, way. Al through the haif ‘the team heard him barking from the side- lines.

Harry Lewis, whe was defeated the other night in Paris by the French boxer, Carpenter, cables that he was given a raw deal and that he won all the way. Tommy Ryan does not believe that Mike Gibbons, the St. Paul boxer, is & world bester and he offers to back Hillard Lang, the Toronto ex-amateur champion, against Gibbons for $2,500 in January. Gibbons and Lang met in Winnipeg last October, but no de- ¢ision was given in their 15 Tound bout.
