MARSHFIELD 11
NORTH BEND 0
Noith BqihI boys from the high
school gave the Maishfield high
school team a bigger scare yesterday
than they did two weeks ago, and the
smaller players had many good plays
to their credit. The Mamhileld team
outweighs tho visitors by a comfort
able margin and It would not have
bee 1 surprising had the scpre been
laVi- yesterday than it w.13 two
weeks ago, whon it was 10 to 0 in
Marsl-field's favor. But Marshfleld ,
had practiced little, and had been
negligent. Tho outcome of tho game ,
proves that it takes practice to play
football. The North Bend boys have
another team at home to practice
against, while Marshfleld has been
practicing signals for the most part,
and have not been in actual play ex
cept for tho game at North Bend.
The game of yesterday was ex
citing every section of the route.
Three times did North Bend players
hold their opponents on the five yard
line, the last time, just beforo the
time was up, and thus saved five
points, and perhaps six. In tho first
hold, North Bend obtained the ball
on tho third down, and then was
carried back over their goal for a
touchback, which, owing to' the new
rule, was an aid to them, as It
counted nothing, and gave them a
kickoff from their 25 yard line. Har
old Brlggs made tho two tackles
which forced tho North Bend player
over his own goal for a touchback.
In tho second Instance, whon the
plucky North Bend boys hold on the
five yard line, and obtained the ball,
they lost It on tho first down on a
fumble. Marshfleld was so near the
goal line that It looked good to Ole
Olson, who was playing his first
game this year with Marshfleld, and
ho went through . on the second
down for a touchdown. Rasmussen
let out with his long right leg and
booted the pigskin straight between
the goal posts.
The score at tho end of tho first
half was six for Marshfleld, and
North Bend had not scored.
The next goal was made by Wleder
on a good fifteen yard run. Ras
mussen failed to kick goal. Tho ball
was entrusted for the most part in
tho Marshfleld play, to Wleder and
Ole Olson. Rasmussen had it under
his arm once for a fifteen yard gain.
Pat Flanagan circled the end once
for a thirty yard run but the ball was
called back on a rule which required
a fifteen yard circle on a quarterback
play. The tackling of Rasmussen for
Marshfleld was a feature of the game,
and that of Harvy Redfleld and Rus
sel for North Bend was as good. Tho
playing for the most part on both
Bides was excellent and all tho boys
deserve mention for their work. The
halves wero of 25 minutes each, and
there was little time taken out, as
no one received an injury which
incapacitated him for any time.
The Marshfleld team tried several
forward passes, but gained nothing
at any attempt, one time fumbling.
The officials wero as follows; Hev
ener and Tower, linemen; Hutchins,
referee; Lacey, umpire; Nasburg and
J. Lacey, linemen.
The North Bend people turned out
a large assemblage and the girls had
some good yells and songs. Prof.
Raab accompanied the team and
students and enjoyed the game from
the side lines. The North Bend con
tingent came down on a launch and
scow, and landed at tho Southern
Pacific docks. Prof. Golden, of tho
Marshfleld school, was on hand and
saw the game. There were no un
pleasant features and tho North Bend
people went home well satisfied with
their showing. Marshfleld's friends
felt that the boys played well but
showed lack of practice. Tho Marsh
field studouts were in the minority as
a crowd of rooters, but the few girls
who were out to assist in songs and
yells kept busy during the entire
game. It was considered a first
class game, of football, and if North
Bond improves as much as she has
in the past two weeks, the game on
Novembor 17th will have an intense
Interest for patronB from both cities,
and Marshfleld wljll have a hard task
on her hands to defeat their opponents.

LIKE THE STORY
OF ENOCH ARDEN
Husband and Wife "Meet Again
After Separation of
Years.
San Francisco, Nov. 2. Separated
thirty-two years, the wife having
gone east and married again after
hearing that her husband had been
killed in a mine explosion in Arizona,
the husband baffled In his earlier
q'uest and reconciled to the thought
that his wife had died, a family re
union was effected in San Francisco
Monday, when Walter English came
down here from Oregon and met his
long-mourned wife and their three
grown sons.
Back of this more than Enoch Ar
den romance are two stories of
strangely similar and yet dissimilar
nature. They wero a young couple
when circumstances separated them
a third of a century ago, but now In
the afternoon of their lives they have
been reunited without oven the cloud
of the wife's second marriage, for her
second husband has been dead some
years.
The mother has been living hero in
San Francisco, in the Mission district,
for some time, and one of her three
sons is employed by the United rail
roads. Not long ago a fortune teller,
It Is said, Informed the mother that
her first husband had not been killed,
ii" generally supposed, but was alive
and well and, unconscious of her ex
istence, was living somewhere in Or
egon. This peculiar vision of the fu
ture is said to have developed Into
a search for Walter English in Ore
gon, with the result that such a man
was found and, after an exchange of
letters, proved to bo the long-lost
first husband.
It was with more than tho or
dinary excitement that the two sons
went with their mother to tho Oak
land pier Monday to meet tho father
they could scarce remember having
seen, and tho mother to rediscover
tho man she had first called husband.
SAILORS RESCUED
FROM DERELICT
Schooner Anglo-Saxon Is I)rive;
Ashore Near Nome nnd Crew
Nearly Perish.
Nome, Alaska, Nov. 2. In one of
tho fiercest gales which has prevailed
here for three days past, the steel
schooner Anglo Saxon of San Fran
cisco was driven ashore on a reef at
Slnrock and totally destroyed. Cap
tain Isaacs and his crew of thirteen
men clung to tho rigging for 24
hours, finally being rescued by tho
life-saving crew after a terrible
rtrugglo with tho elements. Tho
sailors were encabed in ice and nearly
frozen to death but were brought to
shore safely.

NEW YORK BANKS
ARE OPTIMISTIC
Feeling in Inst is Much Better niid
Imports of Gold Will Set
All Aright.
Now York, Nov. 2. The financial
week came to an end without any
notable developments. The stock ex
change was comparatively steady
the day with little action. Runs up
on banking houses seem practically
at au end and few important con
ferences were held by .financiers.
The decline In tho reserves of tho
New York clearing house banks was
heavier than in any of the recent
excitement but will bo covered by
arrivals of gold next week. The ac
tual loss In cash Is about $30,000,000
which reduced reserves on hand to
about $225,000,000. All engage
ment of gold for import, now totals
$29,150,000. If ail these amounts
should go into the reserves of tho
clearing house's banks, it would
practically restoro their supply of
cash lost during the past week. Even
the divergence of a largo amount to
other cities will still leave tho-bnlk of
gold arriving to go Into tho New
York banks and It will result in an
increase in the reserve being shown
next week. Reports from various
parts of the country indicate the sys
tem of meeting payrolls by check in
stead of currency Is being largely
adopted without any essential In
convenience to wage earners.
HONEYMOON NOT
ENTIRELY JOY
Lieutenant Xevin and Bride Aets
Separated by Red Tape
OfUcialdom.
Honolulu, Nov. 2. Tho part of
Lieutenant and Mrs. Novin's honey
moon which was spent on Midway

She will await her husband here, as
his stay at Midway now is short.
Lieutenant and Mrs. Noviu wore
married just after he received his
orders to pioceed to Midway to take
command of tho detachment of
marines there. Mrs. Novin decided
to go along with her husband. A
honeymoon spent In tho lonesomest
spot in tho world would bo romantic.
But an unromantic Navy Department
stood in the way. Lieutenant Nevin
applied to the Navy Department foi
permission for his wife to accompany
him on a naval vessel on whi'sh ho
had orders to go. This was refused,
tho wives of ofucers pot being al
lowed to travel on naval vessels.
Then he got permission to come as
far as Honolulu on a transport.
Erom hero he went to Midway t'bout
a year ago on the Annapolis. She re
mained hero for several months
awaiting an opportunity to join her
husband. Finally she was able to
secure passage by tho Iwalanl, a
small steamer sent from hero to Mid
way by the cablo company.
Her husband's service at that post
will expire soon. There was no cer
tainty that any other opportunity for
her to get away would offer Itself be
fore her husband was ordered away.
Hence sho took tho opportunity of

schooner owned by tho cable com

Colored Pugilist Disposes of
Colorado Man After Eleven
Good Rounds.
WILL NOW FIGHT BURNS
Johnson Left the King Without r
Muilt -Sulliwm and Knulliuan
To Fight.
San Francisco, Oct. 2. "You're a
clever nigger," were the last words
uttered by Jim Flynn, the Colorado
fireman, In his scheduled 45 round
contest with Jack Johnson, colored
heavy weight at Colma this after
noon. A straight right flush to tho
jaw, cut oil further speech and
Flynn toppled to tho floor completely
out. The finishing blow was deliv
ered in the 11th round and It took
fully four minutes to reinstate the
defeated pugilist. Throughout tho
contest, Johnson toyed with h'q an
tagonist as a terrlor would with a rat.
In the Initial round he practically
closed the Colorado man's left eye,
and thereafter made it a target for
his unerring left Jabs. Johnson
landed at will on his man and seemed
to have tho contest well in hand at
all stages. He left tho ring without
a mark and only onco did he recelvo
a telling blow from his opponent.
The beginning of tho end came in
tho 10th round. Near tho end of
this round Flynn slipped to the mat
from the impetus of a misdirected
punch. He was p quickly and as ho
rushed in, Johnson clipped him in
the pit of the stomach with a short
arm uppercut. Flynn dropped to
the floor and was carried to his cor
ner, the gong saving him temporarily.
In the 11th, Johnson taunted his
man and forced him into close quar
ters. Then Johnson, backing away,
shot a wicked straight, flush to tho
law and lynn sank to the floor utter
ly helpless and completely knocked
out. Billy Roche, the referee, said,
"Johnson is a better man and out
classed riynn in overy department of
the boxing game."
Arangemonts will at once bo made
to match Johnson and Tommy Burns
for the heavy weight championship of
the world. In tho preliminary todtv,
"Denver" Ed. Martin got tho decision
over "Spike" Kennedy In tho slxeh.
After tho preliminary, and beforo tho
main event, Jack "Twin" Sullivan
Issued a challenge to Al. Knuffman;
the latter being at tho ringside, an
nounced his acceptance.
