NOTRE DAME’S STURDY ENDS.
HE CAUGHT THE TURNIP.
last night The games were the hardestfought so far this season. The Ramblers started out like “four-time winners,” winning the first two, but could not keep up the pace, and dropped the next four, the •'Tlshies" only winning the last game in the second by two pins. Each club had a large delegation of rooters present. The Compeers remained In third place by taking four games from the Hoo-Hoos. Hassfeld, Of the Compeers, and Parnln, of the ,H Hshies,” made the same high
score of the evening, 231.
The tail-enders. the Melrose and Electric teams, fought it out, and when the smoke had cleared the Electrics had the best of the argument by one game. The

Dropped 300 Feet to the Fork
Juggler's Mouth.
Jehan Bedlni, the English Juggler, successfully performed the feat of catching a turnip dropped from the roof of the Masonic Temple Building, In Chicago, on the prongs of a fork which he held between his teeth. Thousands of spectators watched the exhibition and speculated on Bedinfg chances of coming through the experiment alive. The turnips before being tossed off the roof were wrapped with twine to prevent their bursting should they strike the fork. The first turnip that made the decent struck an over-anxious spectator on the shoulder and he was carried into a nearby drug store for repairs. His sghoulder was dislocated and badly bruised. The second turnip dodged the fork and hit Bedlni on the forehead, bowling him over, but his skull withstood the shock, and, after pulling himself together, thu Juggler tried it again. This time the .turnip could not evade the watchful eye 'of the Juggler and struck squarely on the fork, driving down over the handle until It landed against Bedini’s nose. Investigation showed that Bedinl still retained his teeth, but his mouth was badly lacerated and blood flowed freely. The distance from th« top of the building to the ground was

The Corbett-McGovern Fight. Many Eastern sporting men are inclined to the belief that Terry McGovern has the largest contract on his hands for Thanksgiving afternoon, when he meets ‘Young Corbett,” at Hartford, Conn., that he has assumed since he started his record-breaking sprint for the top of the featherweight ladder. The champion has canceled his theatrical engagements and
The contest yesterday between the cadets and Pennsylvania was the most remarkable football game in the history of the sport at West Point. Not only were the Quakers beaten, but they were run over, trampled on, knocked about like pins on a bowling alley, and when they were finally permitted to drag their weary bodies off the field the score was 24 to 0 in favor of the cadets. Pennsylvania anticipated defeat. The Quakers fought desperately for every yard of territory which they were forced to yield, and once made a fierce attack on the cadets’ tenyard line, but they could neither stop the young soldiers nor drive them behind their own defenses. West Point scored two touchdowns in each half. The points scored In the second half were made by fierce play and each touchdown was earned. Daly kicked the four goals. Once in the second half he ran sixty yards through the entire Pennsylvania team for another touchdown, but the ball was called back because of an off side play. The soldiers will now begin preparation for their game with the navy cadets. While the soldiers and Quakers were battling at West Point the middles were engaged in a fierce conflict on the Annapolis field with Columbia. The naval cadets were not as fortunate as their West Point rivals, however, as they were beaten 6 to

York,
Wednesday. His friends say hs is better and stronger than he was when he won the championship from George Dixon. To fit himself he only has to take off a few pounds and harden his muscles, and this he can easily do in a week. McGovern expects to win In jig time, as he will mix it up, as he always does, from the start, and set a pace which will bring grief to someone before the fight is many rounds old. “Young Corbett” Is the same style of fighter as McGovern, and while be has not had as much experience as the champion, he Is fully as fast, hits a harder ilow, and is believed to be a little stronger. While McGovern will be the favorite, Corbett will not be friendless, and there are many of his supporters who are willing to take the short end of a bet If the odds are right.
fore ten seconds had been counted. Finally. In round one hundred and ten. Referee | Duffy, who had taken a long rest and | was again in charge, sent up to our corners and declared the fight a draw. “It was four days before I could get my : c<»at on and several weeks later I had to have the joints In my right hand broken | tigaln and set properly. They are still tender and even now when I have several ll\cly matches close together I suf-' much pain in that hand. An After Piece. “Th* re waa an amusing afterpiece to' this fight,” continued Burke. “Nearly two j years later I filled an engagement in a j garden in New Orleans, my first visit j since the fight, doing a boxing turn on j 'he stage The manager of the garden proposed that Bowen and I get together and put on a four-round contest each right for two weeks. I agreed. So did Bowen. Then the manager worked the old gag—telling Bowen’s friends that I was g< ing to put him out the first night and telling my supporters that Bowen had it in for me. We both bit and went on the first night watching each other like hawks. Neither made an effort to hit the other in the first round and the crowd hissed. In the second round I Jet go with my left and he thought l meant business. Arounu came his pile-driving left and 1 ducktd and shot my right into hl« nose. It was al! off then. In an Instant we wore at it hot and heavy. I got Inside his guard and had the best of the infighting. We tore down the ropes. He backed me through a piece of scenery and knocked down a couple of wings until we finally clinched and rolled on the floor. The police pulled us apart and the manager wanted to know what we meant by trying to ‘snow him up.’ Mutual explanations followed and we found that both had swallowed the bait, hook and line. Ihe next day we fixed up a little sparring bout and filled the engagement.” Western Football Gossip. Coach Hollister, of Northwestern, has small hopes of holding Minnesota level in the game Saturday. He has been drilling the scrubs in the Minnesota formations and they have outplayed the ’varsity two
afternoons.
The Wisconsin players do not favor a post season game with Michigan, but would prefer to claim the Western championship on the ground that they have played more big teams in the middle West than has Michigan. £ Edson Cooke, the Chicago tackle, who was withdrawn from the squad because of conditions In class work, will probably rejoin the squad to-morrow. He has made up some of his work and arranged to have the rest go over until after the football season. His return to the eleven will be received with joy, as he. is badly needed in the light Chicago line. Captain Sheldon, of the Chicago eleven, was able to leave his room Friday for the first time since his injury, received in the Chicago-Beloit game, nearly a month ago. Sheldon suffers at times from pains in the head and Is weak. He will not be permitted to study or attend classes during the remainder of this term. Sheldon was struck in the head and for several days it was feared his skull was frac-
tured.
Half-back Sweeley, of the Michigan team, is considered one of the strongest kickers that ever played in the West and it is now a matter of comment that his wonderful punting ,has only attracted notice in the last few. weeks. Ever since he joined the Michigan'squad thiee years ago he has devoted special attention to kicking and. In punting, delivers a revolving spiral which is almost impossible to
catch.
Coach Yost, of Michigan, will use a number of scrubs In the game against Beloit Saturday, saving hls regular players for the Iowa game, Thanksgiving day. Some of the players do not approve of Yost’s plan, as they fear the fleet-footed Merrill may be able to get around the Michigan scrub ends for a touchdown and break the brilliant record of Michigan this season in not having been scored on. They would prefer to play In the game rather than take any chances of having
this happen.
Coach Stagg. of Chicago, has made himself unpopular with many lovers of football in the city by scheduling the Chl-eago-Wisconsln game Thanksgiving day, to begin at 12:30 o’clock. The lowa-Mich-igan game will be played In the morning of that day, beginning at 10 o'clock, and It was hoped that the other contest would begin about 2 o’clock. This would enable

vanla, and defeated the Quakers by as wide a margin as did West Point, The cadets surprised the New Yorkers in the first half by scoring a touchdown five minutes after play began, and having the ball on Columbia’s ten-yard line when the half ended. The play was almost wholly In the university territory. Columbia braced in the second half, and after hammering the navy line for forty yards, opened a hole, through which Captain Barrlen dashed a like distance for a touchdown. Bruce kicked goal, and that one point won the game. The navy again worked the ball to Columbia’s ten-yard
line before time was called.
Jack Burke, who with hls partner, McAvoy, is doing a mixed comedy and boxing turn at the Empire this week, has the distinction of being one of the principals in the longest regulation ring contest that has ever taken place in the United States. This exhibition of grit, nerve and endurance has probably been forgotten by many of the followers of pugilism, but It Is green in the memory of all of the oldtime fighters and has been handed down to the present generation of ring tacticians, with whom, under the present methods of training, a similar battle
would be an Impossibility.
Burke's memorable fight took place In New Orleans, April 6, 1SW, in the same arena In which Sullivan was forced to resign the championship. His opponent was Andy Bowen, the hard-headed, bullnecked, one-handed smasher, who, in his own bailiwick, was considered invincible, but who later was killed during a fight with “Kid” Lavigne. Burke and Bowen, who had been matched for a finish fight, stood before each other for 110 rounds before the referee, who, yielding to the demands of the spectators, finally called the fight a draw. The two boys were in the ring for eight hours, and the actual fight-
ing time, including the minute rest be- ;v“— -— tween rounds, was seven hours and twen- the 1 m JL ^
! ty minutes.

The Marion Owls Defeated Under the
Electric Lights.
The Marlon Owls blinked and ruined their feathers under the electric lights in the Marion ball park last night. They were no match for the heavy University of Indianapolis eleven, which coach Kelly and Manager Long sent against them last night and were defeated 16 to 0. Manager Long had first intended sending a substitute team to Marion, using only thiee or four of his regular men, but changed hls mind, as the players needed the practice and were anxious to make the trip. It was fortunate that he did, as a second team would have been plucked by the Owls, who until last night bad net lost a
game this season.
Both elevens played fast, clean football and even under the uncertain light there was little fumbling, although one bobble cost Marion the first touchdown. This play followed the first scrimmage, after Indianapolis had kicked off. and Marlon lined up on her five-yard line. Pierce attempted a trick play on an end run but
“ sharply that he dropped
While the net results of the encounter were not at that time fully apparent, it was practically a finish fight for both men, as Burke stood before his bulkier antagonist for eighty-one rounds with his right hand and left wrist broken, unable to return a blow and Bowen, although he appeared in the ring several times after that contest, was never as good as he was before he acted as the receiving end of Burke’s jabs and punches in the first twenty-nine rounds of the
B
ing and, in telling of it last night, he illustrated the fight so vividly that one could almost see the men in the ring ami the tiers of white, strained faces that watched them hour after hour. Burke said: “I had many friends, but no one thought I could whip Bowen, who was considered one of the best lightweights in the country, but I needed the money and made the match. We were to weigh In at 1S3 pounds and I got afraid of my forfeit and took off seven pounds twentyfour hours before the fight, entering the ring at 130 pounds. I had no one in my corner to advise me. George LaBlanche was there, but he was ‘dopy.’ Still I had studied Bowen’s style and knew I could keep away from him. He knew nothing of science, but was a glutton for punishment, and had a left swing which wa^ a sure sleep producer. All he thought of doing was to land that blow. We went at it, me wading in, banging away at hls head, and I might as well have been hitting a brick wall. I was young and the cheering swelled me up until I was dancing around Bowen as though he was chained. How he missed putting me out in the first half a dozen rounds I can’t

[From a Staff Correspondent ] WASHINGTON, November 21.—The rapid preliminary progress made toward the construction of the isthmian canal is being favorably commented on by Senators and Representatives coming for the session. With the signing of the new treaty this week and the submission to the President, through the Secretary of State, of. the reiwrt of the canal commission, recommending the Nicaraguan route, the greatest obstacles in the way of starting the enterprise are removed. If there is to be any opposition to the ratification of the treaty —provided the unofficial synopsis of its provisions are correct—it has not made itself manifest up to this time. The ratification of the treaty will be followed by the ratification of agreements between Nlcaraugua and Costa Rica conferring on the United States control of territory for the canal. Doubtless there will be differences of opinion as to the route that ought to be taken, but the sentiment seems so nearly unanimous in favor of the route the commission will recommend that not much time ought to be lost in discussion of the subject. Apparently the transcontinental railroads have withdrawn their opposition to the building of the canal, and so, as the session draws nearer, this is one subject that seems to be resolving' itself into a simple proposition.

American manufacturing establishments looking for trade abroad should send young men to the countries to which they arc looking for business for practical training. Joseph L Brittain, consul at Nantes, France, in a communication to the State Deoartment, says he is convinced that if any large manufacturing concern that makes goods for export would send a bright young man to France for a stay of six months or a yeat in some large business establishment, he could go out and sell American goods without any trouble. He says England, Wales, Belgium and Switzerland are now sending young men to France for schooling in business, with the result that those countries take trade that the United States might have if It entered the field in the same way. The consul says he is convinced that the manufacturers of the United States make a mistake in attempting to force their crisp and rapid business methods on the foreigners.

The letter carriers of the country will renew their efforts before Congress to secure better pay. They have presented their cause at several sessions and once or twice have been near to success. The National Association of Letter Carriers Is backing the movement and Edward J. Cantwell, secretary of the association, has the campaign in hand here. Under -the present law the maximum pay for a carrier in cities of more than 76,000 population Is 11.000 a year, and In cities of less than 75,000 population *850 is the highest a carrier may receive.

Samuel Rathbone, special agent of the rural free delivery. Is driving over Marion county talking with farmers and is having the farmers come into the city to confer with him relative to the reorganization of the rural system In the county so that it will Include every household. There are seventeen of the routes now In operation In this county. Two start from Nora and two from Bridgeport. A route starts from each of the following points: Southport, OlinvUle. Galiadett, Cumberland, Lawrence, Acton, Clermont. Malott Park, Castleton. Oaklandon, Julietta, New Augusta and Valley Mills. AH of these routes are to be rearranged and nearly as many new ones are to be organized. In the rearrangement of the old routes some of them will follow different roads through country districts. The new routes will reach houses that the. old ones will miss and will also serve districts where there are no routes at present. Mr. Rathbone is trying to get an arrangement of the routes so that they will connect with the free delivery from the Indianapolis postoffice. Making this connection will « probably be the greatest task In arrange Ing the system for the county The purpose of the reorganIzstlon Is to improve the service the farmers are now getting and to extend it to neighborhoods that are not being served. It will require some time to work out the pious.

ELKS’ BOOM TRAIN. Armed with a Brass Band They will Invade Surrounding Towns. The Indianapolis Elks will send a “boom” train over the lines of the Union, Greenfield and Greenwood interurban companies, next week. Three or four hundred Elks, with a brass band, will be bn the train and at each town on the electric lines a stop will be made and a parade given. The purpose of the excursion, which will require four or five days, is to “boost” the “Wonderland” and bazar, which w.e Elks will hold at the Cyclorama building the first week of next month. At towns along the routes, where there are Elks' lodges the Indianapolis men will probably be reinforced by local members of the order In order that the j parade may be noisier. The “Wonderland” and bazar have al- ! ready been well advertised over Indiana, I Illinois and Ohio. The •‘boosters” of the enterprise expect a large crowd of people from over this State, as the Interurban | and railroad companies have made low excursion rates for the week. The business men of the city are lending their efforts to getting people to Indianapolis, as i they think it will be a favorable time for Christmas shopping. The Elks will put a force of carpenters to work to remodel the Interior of the j Cyclorama building. They’ will ask the i Board of Public Works for permission to use an alley adjoining the building and, | if the permission is granted, the alley will be made weather proof and connected with the building so that larger crowds may be accommodated. The Elks expect to spend 1700 or *800 In making this addition, which will give accommodation to about 2,000 more visitors to the “Won-
derland."
Events in Indiana Politics. To tho Editor of The News: Sir—I feel moved to correct sundry errors in the Interview with the venerable John Drake Marshall, of Bluffton, in The i News recently I was In the habit during j the Legislature of 1863 of attending the , sessions dally, and was acquainted with i most of the members. And my remem- I brance of its proceedings will be found corroborated by the Senate and House ! Journals. The first error is the statement that Baker was Lieutenant-Gov-1 ernor at that time. The fact Is there was actually no Lieutenant-Governor, and If there had been he would have had no voice In electing a United States Senator.. Oliver P. Morton had been elected Lieu-tenant-Governor In I860 and succeeded to the governorship when Henry 8. Lane was elected to the Senate. At the session which convened, Jan. 8, 1863, Paris C. Dunning waa elected president of the Senate, receiving twentyseven votee to twenty for OthinTel Belson. On the same date Samuel H. Buskirk was nominated for Speaker of the House and received fifty-seven votes to thirty-eight for David C. Branham. January 14, 1863, a Joint session for election of United States Senator was held. Hendricks was the choice of the caucus held previously. Representative Blocher, of‘Scott county (not Mr. Marshall, as stated), nominated Thomas A. Hendricks and Joseph A Wright (not O. P. Morton, as stated), was nominated by Senator March, of Delaware. The vote stood: Hendricks. In Senate, 26- Hendricks, in House. 59; total. ®. Wright, in Senate, 22; Wright, In House, 39; total, 61. Kilgore voted for ColIt will thus be seen that Mr. Marshall’s vote, as claimed, would not have produced a gie, and the expenditure of the *50,0* of secret funds would have been entirely unnecessary. Another mistake: Hendricks was not defeated In 1862. He was ejected and served in the session of ’53 and '54. Ills defeat took pl»ce In 1864, when Lucian W. Barbour was elected. The name of Hendricks was presented three tiroes In national inventions for the presidency, namely, 1868. 1876 and 1884. I was acquainted with Governor Hendricks from -my earliest childhood, and hive been among politicians a great part of my lifetime and had an opportunity to know and never heard it hinted or proposed by hls party to relegate him to the rear (as stated in said interview) nor seek a more available man—I think Mr. Marshall has been misquoted or misunderst >od.
