With that remarkable system and methods of organization characteristic of her in every phase of this war, Ger many is preparing for the longest dura tion of the war, revictualing the coun try as she would a fortress, for an indefinite siege. Bread cards, milk cards, petroleum cards, and all other regulations of con trol are less an indication of actual shortage or want, as may be the im pression abroad, than one aspect of the iilan and system of prepartion to Jiusband every resource against all possible eventualities arising from the cut-off of overseas commerce. Keeping in food something like 12, 000,000 uniformed men not engajcj in constructive work, aside from 2,000,000 prisoners, is a stupendous task.

Princeton turned on the Blue and fought man tor man with a far better concerted attack and ir resietlble power that soon carried the pigskin to inside the Yale 10-yard line. in their .eagerness, the Tigers were detected holdinr and set back 15 yards, but quickly regained the lost distance with a perfectly executed forward pass Short plunger and passes placed the ball close to the Y'ale line. Twice the Blue had a chance to gain the spheroid on 'downs, had they tack led with eureness, and each time the Princeton runner slipped away for further gains, until the Elis were final ly forced to their own goal. They fought like Vikings, but to no effect. Foot by foot, the Tigers fought their way into the Blue defense, and after a final smash and heave Referee Tufts untangled the mass of players and awarded a touchdown to Pronceton when he found Driggs with- the ball clutched in his arms an inch or two over the line. Tibbott quicklv convert ed the touchdown into a goal, and Princetons scoring for 1915 was com pleted. The half ended soon after, and when the elevens returned to the field, after the 15 minutes' rest. Yale set out to regain the lead. Parisette kicked off for Princeton, and on the fjrst line up Yale punted to the Tiger's 25-yard line, where Tibbott dropped the ball under the Impact of a fierce tackle by Wil son and Church. Nelson Way, the right tackle from Manchester. N. H.. was at the heels of his flying team mates and. without los ing his stride, scooped up the bounding ball and raced for the Tiger's goal line. While several other Yale - plavers blocked off pursuing tacklers. Way raced over the line for a touchdown. Guernsey kicked the groal while the Yale thousands gave the greatest demonstration of joy ever seen in the Bowl. , Undaunted, the Princeton team re turned to the attack again with an other burst of speed and open play, which they maintained through the rest of the period. Forward and lateral passes .were skilfully mixed with line drives and long, sweeping end runs that rapidly forced the Buldog back time after time, but the Yale team had at last sensed victory - and. while Its de fense was crude, it lacked nothing in fighting spirit. In one way or another the Elis stayed each attack when with in the shadow of their owl goal, and the final whistle found them exhausted and totering. but with the ball safe in their possession near midfield, after Princeton's dying effort ended with a fumbled lateral pass on the blue eight yard line. The unexpected victory was followed by one of the most remarkable scenes of rejoicing ever witnessed at any Yale athletic'contest. Hardly had the shrill blast of the timekeeper's whistle sounded the defeat of Princeton wh.pn the Y'ale stands poured forth thousands of blue-banded undergraduates and graduates and literally swallowed up the eleven and substitutes. From this human maelstrom there presently arose blanketd and weary players who were carried on the shoulders of the march ing "snake dancers," entirely around the inner edge of the bowl before their admiring college mates would permit them to return to the dressing Quar ters, i . Tlsrers Are Stunned. In view of the fine record made by Princeton in all the games this season except those against Harvard and Yale, the defeat today came as a stupendous disappointment to the Tigers and to their adherents. In both attack and defense, it was superior to the Yale eleven that conquered it. but 'poor gen eralship and individual errors cost it the victory,' Just as the luck of the game and the starring of Guernsey and Way made it possible for Yale to win. The defeat was a costly one for the Nassau clan, for the student body backed the team heavily against both Harvard and Yale, and a. hard fin.n. cial Winter is predicted in the lair tf the Tiger.

GREAT AREA IS AT STAKE China, Falling to Ratify Agreement Readied at Former Conference, Willing to Negotiate With British in London. PEKIN. Sept. 28. (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) President Yuan-Shi-Kai has issued a mandate designating Alfred Hue, Chinese Minis ter to the Court of St. James, -as Chi nese plenipotentiary In negotiations which are to be resumed shortly in London between Great Britain and China for the settlement of contending claims regarding Outer and Inner Tibet. In the Autumn of 1913 the repre sentatives of Great Britain. China and Tibet held a conference at Simla for the purpose of agreeing upon the boun dary between Outer and Inner Tibet and settling the status of autonomous or Outer Tibet. Great Britain and Tibet reached an understanding, but China failed to ratify the treaty at that time, not being willing to concede as much territory as was demanded. Great Britain is especially anxious that Outer Tibet be maintained as a buffer state between India and the great unsettled country, in the heart of Asia. Her interest is much the same that Russia has in keeping Outer Mon golia as a buffer between Siberia and enterprising foreign powers which may encroach upon Asiatic soil, as well as a protection against wandering tribes of bandits. Chinese Sovarelaroty Disliked. Outer and Inner Tibet are divisions of Tibet not generally recognized as yet and the two designations grew out of the Simla conference. Outer Tibet, roughly speaking, is the portion of Tibet adjoining India. Inner Tibet is the more northern portion. England desires that Outer Tibet shall be under China's suzerainty, merely, and not un der China's sovereignty. England wants Outer Tibet to be permitted to conduct its own domestic affairs and would limit the number of Chinese troops which may remain in the territory. Having a complete understanding with Russia as to the division of inter ests in Central Asia. England is free to direct -affairs in Tibet such as she chooses and along similar lines to those Russia has adopted In Mongolia. As China has frequently been unable to keep peace in Tibet within recent years and India was overrun at various times by Tibetans. Great Britain re quired China to enter into an agree ment to maintain peace and assure the Tibetans China would not try to make Tibet a Chinese province. During the trouble incidental to the establishment of the Chinese republic the Tibetans became so turbulent that India entered into direct negotiations with the Dalai Lama, ignoring China s claim upon that country. Later Eng land prevented China from sending troops into Tibet to subdue it and be fore Great Britain recognized the Chi nese republic fhe required assurances that -the republic would settle Tibetan affairs satisfactorily. Conference Plan Not Ratified. Out of this pledge grew the Simla conference, action at which China re fused to ratify. Lieutenant-Colonel Sir A. H. McMahon presided at the con ference and represented England. Ivan Chen was the Chinese conferee and Long Chen Shatra, the Prime Minister of Tibet, was the Tibetan member. Although the agreement which Eng land and Tibet worked out and which China refused to sign was never pub lished in full. It is generally known that China's greatest objection to the proposed treaty was the awarding to of Ladies' Fine Suits, Coats and Dresses Begins Monday Morning, Nov, 15th iScfale.iUincludetheverylatestFur-trimmed Suits and Coats, Ivv Braided and Senu-Tailored Suits; in fact, every Suit," Coat or Dress in our entire tJck will be included in this great end-season sale.

GRAY 366 Washington St. Cor. .Washington and West Park Tibet of a large territory which China claims as her own. Inner Tibet is known to have claimed practically all of the district described on the maps as Kokonor. China insists she is ab solute owner of this territory and does not have the slenuer hold upon it which has caused her so much trouble in the case of Tibet proper. If China be required to yield Kokonor. Inner liDet will extend to the boundary of Szechuen, the most western and the richest of all the provinces in Central Uhlna. The territory in dispute is so great that boundary lines 500 and even 1000 miles are in controversy. Tibet is esti mated to have an area of 500,000 square miles by the most conservative ex plorers and the figure is placed .as high as 700.000 by some geographers. It is at least twice as large as Texas and possibly three times the size of the Lone Star State. New York State is less than one-tenth the size of Tibet. TEUTONS TO BE PURSUED (Continued From Kirgt Pafre. ) which is death. The indictments against Fay and Scholtz are for con spiring to "cast away or destroy" ves sels with itnent to injure the owners or the underwriters of the vessel or of goods i nthe cargo. The penalty for this crime is a fine of $10,000 or im prisonment for 10 years. They are also indicted for piracy. There has been great difficult'y in finding ground on which to indict for making an attack on an American ves sel. Piracy may be prosecuted without regard to any question as to the flag that may fly from the vessel which is attacked. The United States may take jurisdiction of anyone who attempts pnracy and prosecute as if the crime were committed on our soil. It is broadly charged that the dynamiters aimed to destroy vessels carrying muni tions of war, and this would include a long list of vessels. Some of them were owned in Great Britain, some in Norway, some In France and some- in Italy. Milder Statute Considered. Assuming that the intent was to de stroy all ammunition ships, it is con tended that this intent would include also American ships that might engage in transporting ammunition. There are several vessels partly owned by Ameri cans and several entirely owned by American capital that might be held to come under the intent of the conspir ators. This phase of the crime Is be lieved to come under section 5361 of the revised statutes, which provides that every person who within the Ad miralty jurisdiction of the United States maliciously attacks any vessel belonging to another with an intent to plunder it or to despoil an owner of goods on board shall be punished by a fine of not more than $5000 and im prisonment at hard labor for 10 years. The aim is to apply these provisions of law to the Fay case, on the theory that the conspirators stood ready to destroy only ships that carried ammu nition for the allies.

A FINE TREATMENT FOR CATARRH EASY TO MAKES AJTD COSTS LITTLE Catarrh is such an insidious disease and has become so prevalent during the past few years that its treatment should be understood by alL Science has fully proved that Catarrh is a constitutional disease and there fore requires a constitutional treat ment. Sprays, inhalers, salves and nose douches seldom if ever give last ing benefit and often drive the disease further down the air passages and into the lungs. If you have Catarrh or Catarrhal deafness or head-noises, go to your druggist and get one ounce of Parmint (Double strength). Take this home and add to it 14 feint of hot water and 4 ounces of granulated sugar; stir until dissolved, take one tableapoonf ui 4 times a day. This will often bring quick relief from the distressing head - noises, clogged nostrils should open, breath ing become easy and mucus stop drop ping into the throat. This treatment has a slight tonic action which makes it especially effect ive in cases where the blood has be come thin and weak. It is easy to make, tastes pleasant and costs little. Every person who wishes to be free from this destructive disease should give this treatment a trial.

Adv. Acid Stomachs Are Dangerous Commoa Sense Advice by a Aew York Physician. "Acid" stomachs Rre dangerous be cause too much acid irritates and in riames the delicate lining of the stomach, thus hindering and prevent ing the proper action of the stomach and leading to probably nine-tenths of the cases of stomach trouble from which people suffer. Ordinary medi cines and medicinal treatments ailing only upon the stomach walls, or as an artificial digestant. are useless In such, cases, for they leave the source of the trouble, the excess acid in the stomach, ys dangerous as ever. The acid must be neutralized, and its excessive for mation prevented, and there is nothing better for this purpose than a tes spoonful of plain bisurated magnesiR. a simple antacid, taken In a little warm or cold water after-eating, which not only neutralizes the acid, but alpo prevents the fermentation. Foods which ordinarily distress may he di gested perfectly if the meal Is fol lowed with a little bisurated magnesia, which can be obtained from any drug gist and should always be kept handy.
