"WEST POINT, N. T., Nov. 20. The Uni
versity of Pennsylvania football team was
defeated by West Point Military Academy
today, and Incidentally suffered one of the
"worst defeats In her football history. The
score, 24 to 0, shows how West Point out
p".ayed the Pennsylvanlans. The visitors
put up a stiff game, however, and were
beaten simply because of West Point's
superiority. After Pennsylvania- kicked
off the ball was In West Point's possession
on her own 30-yard line. Bunker, Graves
and Casard, with excellent Interference,
carried the ball to Pennsylvania's 15-yar4
line, where Pennsylvania was given the
ball for offside play. Pennsylvania, how
ever, was forced to kick. Again West
Point, by center rushes and a pretty
hurdle by Bunker, carried the ball to
Pennsylvania's 10-yard line, where Casard
was forced over for a touchdowri. Daly
kicked a goal. After the next kick-off
Pennsylvania secured the ball, and by a
series of trick plays, and revolving cir
cles, forced West Point back for 30 yards,
but Wtst Point was given the ball for
offside play, and again worked It down
the field and pushed Bunker over for a
touchdown. Daly kicked a goal, making
the score. West Point 12, Pennsylvania 0.
In the second half West Point kicked
off to Reynolds, who was downed on
Pennsylvania's 25-yard line, after running
10 yards. Pennsylvania made the first
down three or four times by revolving
plays and a double pass, when she was
forced to kick. West Point again worked
toward Pennsylvania's goal, and when on
Pennsylvania's 25-yard line, Farnsworth
was put through the line, and made a
touchdown. Daly kicked a goal. On the
next line-up after the exchange ot punts,
Daly, on a fake kick, simply twisted, zig
zagged and stole his way through tne
whole Pennsylvania team and ran 65 yards
down the field for a touchdown, which,
however, was not allowed on account of
holding by West Point. Pennsylvania
was given the ball, but was soon forced
to kick to Daly, who was downed on
West Point's 40-yard line. Then began a
series of rushes until the ball was again
on Pennsylvania's 35-yard line, where -nc-Andrew
was put through the line, and
he sprinted for another touchdown. Daly
kicked the goal.
COLUMBIA 6 ANNAPOLIS 5.
Closely Fought Football Game From
Beginning to End.
ANNAPOLIS, Nov. 20. Columbia beat
the naval cadets today, but by a very
narrow margin. The game, which was
closely fought from beginning to end, re
sulted In a score of 6 to 5 for the New
Yorkers, but was in doubt until the last
minute. When the game was called
Belknap kicked off for the Navy. Morley
got the ball and started up the field, but
when tackled by one of the sailors, fum
bled and a cadet fell on It. Then the mid
dles began to hammer the Columbias line,
which yielded slowly to the weight the
cadets throw on it. Nichols, Freyer and
Land rushed the ball forward, and Land
scored the first touchdown after five min
utes of play. Freyer failed to goal.
In the second half Columbia started In to
redeem herself. The Navy tried their rush
tactics again, but the New Yorkers' de
fense seemed stronger, and the sailors
were forced to do considerable kicking.
Columbia, on the other hand, began
smashing the Navy's line right and left,
using several trick plays to advantage at
the same time. One of the plays resulted
in Shaw getting the ball, which he, passed
back to Weeks, and through good Interfer
ence by Morley, Weeks made a run around
the Navy's right end for 20 yards. He also
made another run In this half of 25 yards.
With the ball on the Navy's 40-yard line,
Columbia used a close-formation play and
Captain Bryan broke through the Navy's
line and ran the distance for a touchdown.
Bruce kicked goal, When but six minutes
of play yet remained, the Navy had the
ball on Columbia's 45-yard line, and tried
hard, but in vain, to make another score.
"WHITMAN ELEVEN "WON EASILY.
Defeated University of Idabo by a
Score of 10 to O.
MOSCOW, Idaho, Nov. 20. The football
game here today between Whitman Col
lege and the University of Idaho resulted
in favor of Whitman by a score of 10 to
0. The game was played on a muddy
Held. Whitman's superiority was pro
nounced throughout the game. Its goal
was in danger only once. The University
of Idaho could do nothing with Whit
man's line and failed to make the requi
site yardage every time It had the ball.
In the second half, Whitman scored a
touchdown within five minutes, and scored
again 15 minutes later. The game ended
with the ball In the center of the field.
The game was clean cut. Whitman's
next game will be at Walla Wallla with
the Washington Agricultural College for
the championship of the Northwcbt. Mos
cow will next play the University ot
Washington at Seattle. Both games will
be on Thanksglvfng day.

Praise for an Oregon Boy.
The Philadelphia Press on Nov. 14, in
a review of the present football situa
tion, has the following to say concerning
"Dick" Smith, the well-known Oregon
athlete:
"There was Joy at Columbia yesterday
when It was announced that Smith, the
sterling half-back, had decided to play
in the Cornell game. Without Smith the
chances of Columbia would look slim.
"As a ground gainer through the lines
Smith Is even superior to Weekes. The
latter can hurdle and get around the ends
with great speed, but Smith Is the star
line bucker of the team. He Is also very
strong on defensive work, and he trill be
useful in this department as on the of
tense." Meet on the Gridiron Saturday.

Nantes and No Names.
Philadelphia North American.
Professor George Davidson, of Califor
nia, has discovered the origin of the name
of Cape Nome, which has been a puzzle
to geographers and etymologists. The
word could not be found In the language
of any Alaskan tribe, and its meaning
was a mystery until Professor Davidson
traced It to a chart Issued In 1853, by the
British Admiralty and obtained an ex
planation from that bureau. It appears
that on a manuscript chart sent home by
the officers of an expedition searching for
Sir John Franklin, attention was called
to the fact that a name had not been as
signed to the point, and the query "C.
(name?)" was placed against It. A
draughtsman, hurriedly inking in the pen
cil marks, omitted the Interrogation point
and failed to make the "a" distinct, and
at the admiralty office the Inscription be
came "C. Nome." If it means anything
it means "Cape No Name," and "Nome"
Is a very good contraction.
In Southeastern Colorado is a branch
of the Arkansas commonly called the
"Picketwlre," a name that was a puzzle
for some years, for there Is no such thing
as a "picket wire." This Is the -history
of the name. A party of Conqulstadores
was destroyed by Indians on the bank of
the stream, and the Spaniards named it
"El Rio de las Animas de los Perdldos,"
the River of the Souls of the Lost. The
French-Canadian voyageurs translated the
Spanish name Into "Purgatolre," and the
American cowboy later pronounced It
"Picketwlre," without troubling his mind
about the meaning. In similar fashion
the cowboy of the northern ranges lias
twisted "frijoles" into "freeholders," and
so calls his dally beans, as If they were
landed proprietors.

Riotous Greek Students.
ATHENS, Nov. 20. The agitation of the
university students against the proposal
to translate the gospels Into modern
Greek has resulted, during the past two
days, In rlotbus demonstrations against
two newspapers which have been advo
cating such translations. Today the stu
dents fired on the police. Troops were
then summoned, and a serious fight occurred,-
which resulted in the wounding of
a score of cavalrymen and several stu
dents. A political motive connected .with,
the Slav propaganda In Greece underlies

SENSATION AT BELGRADE
QUEEN DRAGA SAID TO HAVE BEEN
SHOT AT IN THE STREETS.
One Rumor Is' That She "Was Assas
sinated, Another That She Com
mitted Suicide.
VIENNA, Nov. 20. An unconfirmed re
port that has reached Vienna Is that
Queen Draga has been shot at in the
streets of Belgrade. The Neue Frele
Presse and other Vienna papers publish
various rumors, one declaring that the
Servian Queen was assassinated; another
that she was wounded and a third that
she committed suicide. Reports from oth
er sources deny the statement that Queen
Draga was killed, and assert that the ru
mor of her death was caused by a hys
terical scene with King Alexander. There
Is no reliable information on the subject
here, but it Is generally believed that a
serious crisis exists In Belgrade.
PARIS, Nov. 21. According to a dis
patch from Vienna to the Echo do Paris,
an attempt has been made to assassinate
the Queen of Servla, three shots having
been fired at her while she wa9 driving
near. Semlln. A dispatch to the same pa
per from Belgrade gives a rumor that the
Queen attempted suicide at Semlln.
YERKES' LONDON SCHEME.
To Bring the Suburbs "Within Easy
Distance" of the Center.
NEW YORK, Nov. 20. A dispatch to
the World fom London says:
Charles T. Yerkes has authorized the
following statement in regard to- his trac-'
tlon plans for London. His plan Is to
form a combination of all the Intramural
lines In order to gain facilities for reach
ing different parts of the metropolis. His
acquisition of a controlling Interest In the
district underground Tailway was but the
beginning of his work. These different
roads he will connect with the district
railway and with all the large railroad
stations, besides extending some of them
Into the country, thus constituting a com
plete network of electrical traction lines
covering the whole metropolitan area. He
will place before Parliament this session
several bills enabling his syndicate to
build suburban trolley lines connecting
with those roads, so that eventually the
people will be brought from the suburbs'
into the heart of the city. Even In this
way, considering the population of London
and the suburbs about 7,000.000 the pro
moters think they will not be able to car
ry all the traffic.
The District Railroad already has the
privilege Irom Parliament to build whut
Is called a deep-level road, under Its ex
isting shallow road. It Is the Intention
of the Yerkes Metropolitan District Elec
tric Traction Company to build this line
and use It for express trains. The whole
scheme Is a very large one. Involving
many millions of capital. But the pre
liminary has been carried through rapidly
and quietly, no one knowing what was be
ing done until the work was accom
plished. SKYSCRAPER FOR LONDON.
American Syndicate Proposes to
Erect, a Huge Office Bulldinff.
LONDON, Nov. 20. The action of an
Anglo-American corporation in asking for
a 90-year lease of a site on the Strand for
the erection of an, office building on Amerl
can lines, to cost 2,000,000, has caused
much comment and Interest, and is dis
cussed from various points of view. Many
people share William Waldorf Astor's
views, as expressed In today's Issue of the
Pall Mall Gazette, throwing cold water on
the proposed undertaking, but the major
ity of the public shares the view of the
London Times, wilch says: "We are far
too slow in meeting the wants ot the
enormpus papulation; we ore far too much
given to meddling along with, timid exten-'
slons of methods essentially antiquated."
More than half the capital for the of
fice building Is to come from America.
There is still jnuch doubt as to whether
the County Council will lease the site to
the syndicate. Even when the site Is
secured, the promoters will .probably be
obliged to get Parliament to change the
building laws of England. Among the
financial Interests concerned In the project
are the British Electric Traction Company
and the New York & Brooklyn Tube
Company. The proposed building will
have 50 elevators, operating day and night.
The building will contain 6000 offices, and
there will be a huge rotunda under a lofty
dome.
Superstition in New Gninea.
LONDON, Nov. 20. Lleutenant-Gov-ernor-General
George Lehunte, In his an
nual report on British New Guinea, tells
a curious story of native superstition,
which Is causing the sacrifice of innumer
able lives. It appears that whooplng-
r-cough was Introduced by two white chil
dren, and spread with frightful rapidity.
It first swept the coasts, and Is now rav
aging the Interior. As the natives hold
that death from whatever cause Is always
compassed by an unknown enemy, only
discoverable through witchcraft, when
ever a village 13 attacked with whooping
cough a sorcerer Is consulted. The latter
Invariably designates another village or
tribe as culpable, and a midnight massa
cre of innocent persons occurs.
LOST Off DEADWOOD CREEK
Thrilling: Experience in Journeying;
Through Trackless Brash.
GREENLEAF, Nov? 16. (To the Edi
tor.) I met Mark Hadsall, of Florence, in
a reminiscent mood the other day and he
told about what was probably the Jflrst
visit of white men to Deadwood Creek.
It was 23 years ago. Florence then ex
isted, but was accessible only by water.
Hadsall, with his father, had come down
the Umpqua and up the coast to Florence
to locate the first homestead up the Slu
slaw. They wanted a shorter route to the
valley. A man named Hamilton had set
tled somewhere near where Blachly post
oftice now Is, and a Mr. Young had come
down Lake Creek from there to Florence.
From him Mark and his father and Mr.
Anthony, who afterwards took up a home
stead on Lake Creek, procured a rude
chart showing Lake Creek and its princi
ple tributaries, as he had found them,
with provisions for the trip, started off,
crawling through the dense and trackless
brush. Their chart showed them Indian
Creek, which they were to cross and then
keep on the west bank of Lake Creek. But
it appears that Young had in places
crossed and traveled on the east bank of
Lake Creek and had thus missed Dead
wood Creek, and It did not appear on the
chart. The Hadsall party followed their
chart and, of course, it took them up
Deadwood, they supposing It to be Lake
Creek. They hunted some, but the noise
of their progress through the brush
warned the game, and they got none.
From a height which he had climbed
In search of game Mark saw the conflu
ence of Deadwood and Lake Creeks, and
wanted to Investigate, but was overruled
by the elders, who said they must go by
the chart, and that what he had seen
was probably only an island In Lake
Creek. Provisions might be short before
they reached. Hamilton's, for they could
make but a few miles a day through the
brush, and they must not waste time
in exploring the country. So the party
kept on up Deadwood. Indians were In
the habit of ascending the creeks with
their canoes, sometimes poling them and
sometimes dragging them, and the places
where they had camped to dry elk meat
were frequently met with. But at last
the stream narrowed down until the trav
elers realized that It was smaller than
Lake Creek could possibly be below the
lake. They were lostl
At this point they found an Indian
canoe, and loudly they called for Its own-
er, but he was evidently beyond hearing.
After waiting a while they called again,
and this time the Indian came crawling
out of the brush. "He was an old fellow
known as Aleck. He understood but very"
little English, but at last they made him
understand that they were lost, and that
they wanted to go to Hamilton's. He
pointed to the steep mountains that divide
Deadwood from Lake Creek, and 'then up
into the sky to show that they were very
high and steep. Then he pointed to the
northwest and said, "Al3ea." They
showed him $5 in silver that they would
give him If he would pilot them over the
mountains to Lake Creek. But he shook
his head and pointed to the sky. The
climb was too steep and high for him.
They doubled the coin exhibit, but this
had no effect. Finally they showed him
$3 and pointed to his canoe and down
Deadwood. At this he brightened up and
accepted readily, and they made a quick
trip down the stream, for the shortness
of their supplies warned them to hiirry,
and all worked hard. They made their
way to Hamilton's, but they traveled two
days on half rations, tnd two days with
out food. They learned afterwards, that
Aleck had his kloochman In the woods
with him.
Another party afterwards started up
Lake Creek on Young's directions, ana
went up Deadwood. When they found
they were lost they returned, half fam
ished, to the Sluslaw, but It was only by
stewing and eating an old elk skin that
the Indians had left at one of their dry
ing camps that they save their lives.
Last Summer, after several Ineffectual
attempts, a route was blazed for a wagon
road from Upper Deadwood to Blachly,
which will shorten the distance probably
two-thirds. .
Mr, Hadsall made another trip to. the
valley, going up the Sluslaw, where dally
stage now runs. He trapped on the route
however, and had plenty of meat, and was
over 40 days on the journey. Thirty days
of which time he was without salt, anu
he says that after a week or two he dla
not miss the salt much, subsisting on
meat alone. WILLIAM H. WHEELER.

ANOTHER GOVERNOR UP
NEBRASKA'S EXECUTIVE OPPOSES
RAILROAD CONSOLIDATION.
Says He "Will Join Minnesota and
SWashingrton in Enforcing: Lavrs
Against Combinations.
LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 20. Any form ot
railroad consolidation between the Union
Pacllic and Burlington tending to lessen
competition between these roads "will be
opposed by Governor Savage. The Gov
ernor said today that Nebraska would
join with Minnesota and Washington in
enforcing the laws against combinations
-which, in this state, he regarded as plain
and unmistakable. The Governor said:
"Nebraska will not take a back seat in
the enforcement of the law. The state
constitution prohibits consolidation of par
allel railroad lines, and If there Is any
violation of the constitution I .will use
my energies towards enforcing the laws
against corporations the same as private
individuals. I feel warranted in calling
the attention of the Attorney-General to
the matter and on him I shall rely to In
vestigate." NO PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT.
Securities-' Company" "Will Not Make
Statement on. Terms of Ex change.
NEW YORK, Nov. 20. The Evening
Post, says;
"In .view" of tho threatened legislative
hostility to 'the formation of the Northern
Securities Company, a statement made to
day by one of the officers that no formal
announcement of the terms of the stock
exchange will be made, has special Inter
est. One of the company's officers, an
swering a question as to when a formal
statement would be made of the terms
under which the Northern Pacific and
Northern Pacific preferred shares will be
turned over, said:
" 'I hardly think the public need expect
any official statement on that point. There
is no necessity for It. Official announce
ment has been made of the retirement
of the Northern Pacific preferree?hares at
par because in this stock there is a large
outstanding public Interest. In the cafee
of the Great Northern and Northern Pa
cific common shares, we can reach th?
holders directly without any difficulty, and
this we are doing. For this reason I do
not expect that any statement which can
properly be termed official will be made
In conneotlon with the transfer of these
shares to the Northern Securities Com
pany.' "
THE MINNPSOTA LAW.
Section Apninsc Consolidation of
Competing: Line.
The statute of Minnesota, under which
Governor Van Sant will try to prevent
the common ownership of the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific Railroads
by the Northern Securities Company, of
New Jersey, Is as follows:
Section 253S. Parallel or competing lines not
to consolidate No railroad corporation shall
consolidate with, lease or purchase, or In any
way become owner of or control any other rail
road corporation, or any stock, franchises or
rights of property thereof, which owns or con
trols a parallel or competing line.
Railroad attorneys laugh at the Idea
that the coalition of Interests that has
just been brought about falls under the
prohibition of this statute. The new
deal merely provides a common owner
for the two properties, in no wise mak
ing one dependent on the other or putting
them under, one management.
Some three years ago when the North
ern Pacific Railway Company obtained
control of the St, Paul & Duluth, the
same "statute that Is Invoked to prevent
common ownership of the two Northern
railroads by the New Jersey- corporation
was appealed to to prevent that consoli
dation, the Northern Pacific already hav
ing a railroad between St. Paul and
Duluth. It Is believed that no judicial
determination of that matter was
Preached, the State Railroad Commission
and the State Grain Commission pursuing
It for several months and finally dropping
it upon assurance from the Northern Pa
cific that grain rates would not be un
favorably affected by reason of the ac
quisition of the additional line between
St. Paul and Duluth. Last June, at tho
annual election of the St. Paul & Duluth,
Northern Pacific officials were elected
throughout, which drew considerable
comment and threats of an appeal to the
courts to prevent the alleged consolida
tion. But the lawyers then said they
didn't see how It was possible to say a
man should not hold more than one rail
road office or manage more than one rail
road; that such legislation would be In
restraint of a man's personal liberty and,
of course, would not be tolerated.
In the constitution of the State of
Washington tho following language ap
pears In section 16 of article xll:
No railroad corporation shall consolidate Its
stocks, property or franchise with any other
railroad corporation owning a competing line.
Then there Is the section against
monopolies or trusts which was printed
yesterday and which clearly does not
apply to the present railroad situation.
By scanning the constitution of "Washing
ton the following section relating to cer
tain other railroad practices may also
be found:
No railroad or other transportation company
shall grant free passes, or sell tickets or passes
at a discount, other than as sold to the public
generally, to any member of the Legislature or
to any person holding any public office within
this state. The Legislature shall pass laws to
carry this provision into effect.
The Legislature of Washington has not
yet got around to tho point of doing its
constitutional duty by passing laws to
carry that section of the constitution Into
effect. No attention I3 given that mat
ter. NO CHANGE FOB, MILLER.
Not to Be Traffic Director of the Hill

ST. PAUL, Nov. 20. Regarding the re
port "that he Is to become traffic director
of the Northern group of the transconti
nental lines, Vice-President Darlu3 Miller,
of the Great Northern Railroad, said:
"I believe the information Is wholly In
correct. It does not coincide with what

for any such appointment. I will be very
much 4 gratified when these reports, cease
to some out, ' for they are the source of

DISEASE DESC
BY
The Diagnosis Made Easy by the Famous Symptom
Questions; the Cure Made Certain by the
Wonderful Medication Which Reaches
Every Part Subject to Catarrh.
THE TREATMENT THAT CURES
DrI Copeland's treatment, that has
lifted, the darkness and blight of the word
"Incurable" from hundreds of thousands
of cases of Catarrh of the Head, Throat,
Ear Tubes, Bronchial Tubes and Lungs,
'works as curative action for two reasons:
(1) It reaches every diseased spot
front the orifice of the nose to the
deepest part of the lungs and the
inncrmont recesses of the middle
ear.
(2) Instead of Irritating, inflanilnjr
and feeding: the fires o the disease,
it soothes, quiets, heals and cures.
CATARRH OF HEAD AND THROAT.
The head and throat become dis
eased from neglected colds, caus
ing: Catarrh when the condition of
the blood predisposes to this con
dition. "Is the voice husky?"

"Do you snore at night?"
"Do jou blow out scabs?"
"Is your nose stopped up?"

from catarrh passlnsr along the eu
stachian 'tube that leads from tho
throat to the ear.
"Is your hearing falling?"
"Do your ears discharge?"

North-western Car Famine.
The Chicago Railway Age has this note
of the car famine In the Northwest,
which is approximately correct, except
that It has not nearly disappeared:
The freight car famine which has existed all
over the United States for the last two months
has almost disappeared In Oregon. Shipments
of hops, prunes, green fruits and lumber over
tho O. R. & X. lines are heavier this year than
ever before in the history of the road, tho
traffic requiring 85 to 125 cars per day. On
the Southern Pacific about 30 cars more of
freight have been hauled each day than wero
hauled a year ago. The 3000 new freight cars
that the company is building are being put Into
commission as fast as they can be turned out
of the shops.
May Lend to Rate War.
CHICAGO, Nov. 20. It was stated last
night that it Is not Improbable that the
recent flurry regarding the time of fast
trains between Chicago and St. Paul and
between Chicago and Omaha will lead to
tho withdrawal of several of the so-called
weak lines from the "Western Passenger
Association. Should this occur It is be
lieved It will cause a war In rates. Al
though no road has yet taken this action,
the advisability of doing so has been dis
cussed by the management of at least two
lines.

There are hundreds of Whittier'a early

any collection of his works, writes S. T.
Packard In the Independent. They are to
be found In the papers ho edited and to
which he contributed In the days before
he consecrated all bis powers to humani

of literary reputation which, must have,
gratified him at the time; but when he

to prevent tho collection of the verses

respected. And vet, while studying his

had not been overlooked when making
his selections. Among these is this para

By evenln's star and noontide's sun
Until at last it sinks to. rett
Overwearied In the waiting sea,

So turns my soul to Thee. j
