All About it.
In a game brilliant, on both sides
. for its defensive tactics, the OAC
tootball team met with a reverse in
a match with tbe University of
Washington eleven on OAC field
. Saturday afternoon. Nearly 800
people saw tbe two teams struggle
for the mastery with honors even
in the first half, w;th the contest
anybody s game until the middle of
the second half, and then saw the
Washingtonian find a weak spot
in the OAC line and by following
up the advantage record a score' of
five to naught against the O egon
men. Through it was the first game
01 the season they siw the Oregon
men in the be6t exhibition of block
ing ever put up by a local team on
OAC field. Had Walfrer been able
to remain in tbe gameand'Abraham
not have sustai' ed a muscle bruise
whiih m ide it impossible f r him
to e rry the ball or to put up the
foimidable resistance that -is his
ivonr,2 it is entirely possible that
the game would have been ecore
Ihss. Until after these accidents
happened, and even for some time
afterward, the Oregoa line htld
against almost every onslaught,
and progress for the Washiogton
ians towards the Oregon : goal to
any considerable extent was im
possible. Blocked Spiedells Kicks
Heavy and fierce as were the
Washington meo.the evenly balan
ced character of tha two aggrega
tions under equal conditions wa
patent as was finely illustrated
throughout the first half. Within
eight minuses after the half opened
the Hall began to hover over Ore
gon's 35 yard line, and until time
was call-id at the end of tbe half
it never got more that 10 yards 00
either side of the ' spot. In fact
when the half closed it was on Ore
gon's 35 yard line. At one titni
Washington Ion it on that line on
downs, Oregoa immediately lost it
the 'same way. and then took it
5ack from Washington on the third
down, the ball not having passed
threa yards away from the line on
either side daring the scrimmages.
-" A piece of fine blocking on an at
tempted place kick by Speidell was
a play that elicitod ' much praise;
When the ball was passed, Bowers
and, William made a dash and
while the latter downed the Wash
ington half. Bowers broke through
and blocked the ball just as it star
ted for the O.egon goal. All ac
counts are that the pigskin was
headed squarely for the goal post,
and that nothing but the splendid
blocking prevenied tne Washington
men ; trom
points
ecoriDg another fire
What the Game Shots
In a second attempt at a ': place
kick, Bowers, Nash and Dunlap all
went through the Washington liae
and were ready to block, but in the
pass the bail went over .Spiedell's
head. The fate of the two attempts
at place kicks discouraged the
famous Washington kicker and
though opportunities were . after?
ward presented, no more attempts
were made. Other performances
by the Oregon men were the per
sistence with which Spigle- from
Oregon's right end. broke up for
mations " in ; their inception,
fine and fearless -tackling by
Rinehart, fine resistance presen
ted by Rampaugh on Oregoa's left
end,i together with powerful aid
rendered the line vby Nash and
Root and the lattets fierce plunges
with the ball. Both Williams and
Bowers played in far better form
than the best of their performance
last'year and each ia certain to win
for himself a brilliant reputation
before the season , "ends. Probably
a new star in the team is Dunlap
at right guard. Several times he
broke through the heavy Washing
ton line, and at' all times he played
with reckless energy. ; ';
Though a lost game the result
adds materially to the reputation
of the Oregon players. They went
against the team that was the stron
gest aggregation in the northwest
last year, and that has lost nothing
in strength by tbe return of another
year. They played without their
captain one of the best players in
the country, : and without Bundy
their well known tackle, and yet
maintained ashowing of equality
with the ? WaehtngtonianB until
game. The result ia that though I
the score is against them, the Ore
eon mon have added to their . pres
tige as team, and have gained ex
perience .that will serve them well
through tbe rest of the season.
HOW THE PLAY WENT
OAC won the toss aDd chose to
defeud the north goal. Speidell
kicked to Duulap who advanced
tbe ball to tbe forty yard line. Oa
the first play Williams rounded left
end for a 25 yard run. Oregon lost
the ball on a fumble on Washing
ton V45 yard line. Strauss round-d
right end for a 30 yard rup, the
longest of the game. By line bucks
and short end runs, Washington
worked the ball 25 yards and lost
to Oregon on downs on the latter's
15 yard line. Williams quickly
rounded left end for 10 yards . and
Rojt added anothar five around
light ed. Ball -nt to Washing
ton on downs ani Strauss- rjunded
end for five yards. Washington
tried a fake p ay, wasfabout to
lose the ball oa downs and Spei
dell attempted place kick, which
was blocked by B iwers. Ball went
to Oregoa, and Williams clipped off
five yards on left end and followed
it up wnh hve arouud rignt. JNash
and Root each bucked a yard, but
b-;ll went to Washington on Ore
gon's forty yard line. Washington's
attempt to round end was blocked
by Rumbaugb.
.WALKER 1VEXI OUT.
Washington pounded left iackle
for no gains and Spagle downed an
attempt on right end, and ball went
to O;egon on downs on her 35 yard
ine. Oregon triad three times
without sufficient gains and the ball
went to Washington on Oregou'd 35
yard hoe. Washington fumbled
but Speidell saved the ball, and af
ter trying the Hue for two. downs
the ball went beck to Oregon, again
00 her 35 yard line- f The defensive
work in these scrimmages was the
pretti'st ever seen on O. A.;C. fields
Root tried guards for no gains and
Nash punted 35 yards and Wash
ington was downed on the center of
the- field. Strauss rounded left
end for a 15 yard run and Lantz
went around right end for five yards.
Walker went out and Abrams went
into the Oregon line at, left guard.
Strauss went around left end . for
five yards and -McElmon round
right for, five yards. Two bucks
failed to yield yardage, and Speidell
attempted a place kick. In ' the
pass, he'bill went oyer his head,
with Bowers, Nash and Dunlap all
through the Washington line ready
to block. Ball went to Oregon on
her 35 yard line, and time was call
ed for the first half.
WEAK SPOT IIT OREGON LINE.
Id the second half Nash kicked
off to Washington, defending the
south goal, and the ball, was ad
vanced to the 35 yard line. Wash
ington began line 'plunges through
ngbt tackle and- left guard . and
worked the ball to Oregon's 45 yard
line and lost to Williams on a fum
ble.: Bowers went through the line
for three yards, Root rounded 'end
for two yards, and after line bucks
the ball went to Washington on
downs on her fifty' "yard line.
Strauss plunged through' line for
five yards and McElmon hurdled
for four yards oyer. ,. ...With short
line plunges Washington worked
the bail . to Oregon rs 35 line, - and
Oregon was penalized fifteen yards
for piling . up after 'the ball was
dead. Oregon held and got the
ball on downs on her 15 yard line.
Nash punfed to the -center of the
field and Washington "ran' the ball
back 15 yards. : - Washington made
yardage, but was penalized for
holding. Washington tried I two
downs for no gains and Speidell
punted from Washington's 45 yard
line. Nash took the ball on Ore
gon's ten yard line and was downed
after advance of five yards. ;
OVER THE GOAL LINE.
The big gain by Washington in
this punt from the 45, to .Oregon's
15 yard line was a turning point in
the struggle in tbe last half. In
the first three downs that followed
Oregon made good her yardage, but
in the next three flailed and lost
the ball to Washington on'; downs.
If in the last down Nash had . been
permitted to punt, it is the prevail-!
ing opinion that tbe - game would
have been scoreless. Taking the
ball on. the 25 yard line, Washing
ton began a series of desperate
plunges through the weak spot in
Oregon's line, and Lantz finally
went over for a touchdown.. Spied
ell missed an easy goal. : ; 7
Nash kicked : off and ; Washing
ton brought it back to the 35 yard
line. Washington fumbled and Spa
gle fell on the . ball. , Oregon tried
for the line for no gains and' Na3h
punted and Washington was down
ed on her 30 yard line. . By furious
line plunges Washington gradually
worked the ball well down in Ore
gon territory when time was called.

George Little has lived all his life in
the Adirondacks and the fish and game '
stories he tells are worth traveling
many miles to hear. Some years -ago
when he had charge of a camp for the
late Speaker Husted and Dr Hayes he
was out hunting and fishing" on Ra
quette lake. He discovered a flock of
wild . geece flying in the shape of a
V.. - He was in the act of loading his
gun which was of the muzzle-loading
pattern, and not having time to with
draw the ramrodfired, and then' wad-

On going through the water a brass!
button on his pantaloons flew off and
as he reached shore he found 70 pounds
of trout in his , pants, which wa the
cause of the button disappearing, and
about four'rpds away lay a fine deer
dead.' . He then went 'to secure' his
geese, ; and ; on his ramrod sticking1 in
a tree hung 17 of the birds 'pierced
through the-neck." ";He then brought
his game safely to camp, and when
he dressed the deer he found the brass
button imbedded in his heart. If any
one doubts this story he has tbe bras

BOER TONGUE TROUBLES.
Lang-nage DifBcnltlea That Beaet tbe

a .1L. .'' Oolonlea. . -t.
There is no question in South Africa
of suppression of the' language of the
people'.. The language of the .. Boer
people of South Africa is a patois
called Taal, based on the seventeenth
century Holland Dutch, with a-mixture
of. many strange words,, Kaffir
and English, and with , the omission
of most grammatical inflections.. - In.
that happy tongue you are permitted
to say "I is." It is needless tto say
there is no literature in this patois,
as there is in Hollander Dutch of this
century. The official recognition of
Hollander Dutch dates from 1882 in
the Cape Colony,' and is a result of a
political propaganda of the Afrikan
der Bund, says the PaH Mall Gazette.
It was openly announced and hailed as
the, "thin end of the wedge" to prevent
th fusion of the Boer and British
strains of the European people, and to
drive the British into the tea. -.
' The: veld Boer does not 'understand
Hollander Dutch; he dislikes the Hol
lander outlander- only a degree less
than the British outlander, or than the
French, Italian, German or any other
outlander. He .only hears the. Hol
lander tongue, or, rather,,the seven-teenth-cemtury
predecessor tot iti ia
the'text- from tbe eerenteetlfc-century
Dutch Bible read out in the churches
on Sundays by the predikant, or in the
hymns chanted, by: his fathers of the
lpw. lands, who worsted Alva, prose
cutor of the saints of the Lord. ...
A very minute proportion of the
Boers have any business to transact,
in the law courts or public' offices, un
less suchiao are fully acquainted with
English. . For a generation before Mi-"
juba hill the Boers, desiring to give
their children fair start in their
business dealings with the- t business
people; of the towns, hadf their children-
taught English The ' EngKsli
governess" was a-institution among
Boers of any position." At the present
moment there, are none of the ; B)er
leaders who - cannot speak , English;
there are many, of. course, who will
not.' After so many years- of active
political propaganda of the Hollander'
Dutch language," in the j-ear before
the war in Pretoria there were only
five per cent, of the cases in the. law
courts between- non-English-speaking
people. ." ..All business transactions
were conducted in English; sales and
mortgages of farms, sales of mining
options, dealings in stocks and shares,:
purchases in shops of imported goods,'
sales in the market squares of agri
cultural produce. Every Boer profes
sional man, every Boer politician, had,
as a necessity of life, to be acquainted
with English. i
