a perfect goal from the twenty-five yard line. Hascall suparcd the ball on
the klckoff and by a series of end runs and forward passes, forced the ball to within a few inches, when McShane went over thronerh center. He
failed to kick goal. After this neither
side was able to sror and the eame
ended with the score 10 to in East Chicago's favor. The game was characterized by the clean playing on both sides and the absence of wrangling. The only disagreeable feature of the
game was the difficulty in keeping the crowd off the field.

Gary is already up against the question of a too narrow main thoroughfare. It Is a bit young to be confronted by this problem, but since the mistake of laying out Broadway, south of the Pennsylvania tracks, sixty feet instead of 100 feet Is made, tho sooner agitation begins to remedy the error, the better. Every city that enjoys a steady progress, sooner or later has the question to thrash out Chicago has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars, it is safe to assume, in the widening State street alone. The widening of Halsted street Is the most. recent undertaking agitated in this connection. Hammond is confronted with tho urgent necessity of widening State street, which matter, by the way has been unduly quiet of late. Gary, being the "heir of all the ages," should take Its lesson by the history of the experience of other cities. Sixty feet Sa crowding the limit of narrowness, anyhow. In Chicago, the narrowest street that the city will accept is sixty-six feet and an eighty foot thoroughfare Is a common width there. The streets within the loop district vary from SO to 120 feet in width and tua necessity for still wider streets to accommodate the immense amount of traffic, is apparent to all visitors to this busy district.

i-few Haven, Conn., Nov. 11. Captain Pryor of the Brown university football eleven said this evening the Yale eleven stood easily ahead of the Harvard and Princeton teams, "Brown has never played Princeton," said he, "so that my prediction for the Yale-Princeton game la only my opinion. When I forecast Yale the victor of the contest with Harvard, my opinion is based on the fact that Brown has met both elevens and it seems to me Yale should defeat Harvard as badly as Yale beat Brown yesterday. Harvard had only a single attack which gained on Brown. Yale has any
number and all of them were more VALPARAISO TIGERS WIN GAME

"I was not impressed with the Yale

could do nothing with them, although we came near it several times. The Yale rush lines play too far apart and Yale's idea in playing to center rush,

The Town Clock.
Original. A group of citizens stood la tho market place of Schramberg, la the Black forest, looking up at the clock in thi
church tower. "It has stopped, eaid one. "No, but the hands more at a snail's pace," said another. "I have been standing here fully tec minutes," said a third, "and can't de tect the slightest chango." "And I have watched it for an hour," said a fourth. "The long hand shows a gain of tvro and a half minutes." "When was the change noticed?" "At 12 o'clock midnight It has noi ' struck the hour since." "Let me see two and a half minutes to the hour. At that rate the minute hand -would sweep the dial In twentyfour hours. The clock registers but an hour a day." From a little shop near by old Rothholz, the watchmaker, glanced out ol his window at the group, shook his head at them, then turned and resumed his work. The day before his son had come to him, wringing his hands. "Oh, father," he exclaimed, "CIclly has been condemned! Old Mothei Gault swore that she had seen hei with her ovra eyes vomiting crooked pins." "Whatl That innocent girl condemned for witchcraft on tho testi
mony of that hag?" "Tes, and she is to bo burned at the stake in three days. Oh, father, help! We are betrothed r The youngster, still In his teens, had not ceased to rely on his father fot everything. The old man scratched his head and gave himself up to deep thought Presently he said, "I cannol prevent this tragedy, but I may delay It." "How?" asked the boy eagerly. "You know, my son, that the clock in the church tower, which I made and about which no one except myself knows anything, is the legal time iu the village that I. the town clerk as well as watchmaker, keep the legal calendar and keep it by the clock. If I stop the clock I stop the village time, but in that case they would adopt another standard. I will make the hands go very slowly. This will delay the execution, and something may happen to save the girl." In the middle of the night the old man went up into the tower and changed the clock's rate to cue hour in twen
ty-four. Cicily could not be legally
burned for more than two months. The group standing in the market
place afer further discussion moved together to old Rothholz's shop, told him" that the clock had nearly stopped
and he must fix it. "Don't bother your
heads about the clock," he said; "it
will go well enough in time." "When?" "After the girl who was condemned yesterday has been burned." "What has that to do with it?" "I don't know. I only know that the clock, which has kept perfect time ever since it was set up in the tower, has suddenly gone wrong." "Nonsense:" exclaimed most of the party, and they went away. The old man Insisted that he could
not fix the clock, though, to satisfy the! authorities, he pretended to try. In a; few days the burghers, finding a new i subject of interest, ceased to talk i fcbout the clock. A week later Antoine
Hecker presented a note that was due to Karl Becker for payment. Becker declared that he would pay it when the town clock should say the time for payment had expired. Hecker went to Rothholz and asked for a certificate to that effect. Hecker declared that by the village time the note was not due. The result was a quarrel between the debtor and the creditor. Then came a widow who wished to
marry again. By the terms of her late
husband's will she would lose everything he had left her if she married before a certain date. The date had
expired, but the legal town time said
that it had not. The clerk said it was
hl3 duty to keep the calendar by the clock. He could do nothing. The judge ordered him before the court
and to fix the clock or keep the calen
der by another timepiece. The town clerk refused to break the law, and
tho Judge had no power to compel him
to do so.
As the days and weeks elapsed the condition of the people of the village
became more irritating. They quar
reled about the time to go to bed, to get up, for meals. The children would not go to school till the clock struck
the hour. Nobody would go to church
because there was no knowing when they should go. Those who had watches tyrranized over those who had not and quarreled among themselves
as to whose watch was right At last
the hubbub was so great that it be
came intolerable. A committee wait
ed on the town clerk and begged him
to fix the clock or break the law, prom
ising him immunity.
"Not I," he said. "I believe that heaven shows its displeasure through
the clock for the condemnation of a
pure young girl for witchcraft"
When this was repeated to the judge
he called the court together and reopened the trial of the condemned
Cicily. Antoine Hecker, who was anx ious to get his money from his cred
itor, having heard that the clock would
not go properly . till Cicily was acquit
ted, swore that the night before he had seen her accuser sailing by moonlight . a AVI .J. I. 3
on tho river in a sieve, aii me dissatisfied people In the village supported his testimony. Cicily was acquitted, and the old woman was condemned to be burned in her stead. That night at midnight the old clock struck the hour and thenceforth recorded the time correctly. CHARLOTTE BOND HILL.
Michigan's Confidence Reduced by Decisive Vic
tory of Quakers.
GARY WINS AGAIN.
Ann Arbor, Mich., Nov. 11. Coach
Yosh returned this afternoon from
Philadelphia where he saw the Quak
ers beat Pennsylvania State yesterday.
He brought with him a respectful idea
of the strength of Michigan's next op
ponents.
Said Tost: "The Penn team is strong,
and we have a big job on our hands.
Just now it looks as if it will be large
ly a matter of luck, and the team that
gets the break on that should win."
The 28 to 0 score of Penn over Penn.
State took away a lot of Michigan con fidence, and the Quakers are now fa
vorites in the betting. Today several
bets were made with Penn on the long
of 5 to 3 odds.
"Up to the present time," said Keene
Fitzpatrick tonight, "the Michigan
team is in the best possible condition.
Unless unexpected accidents put us on
the bum this week, we will have no
excuses to offer If Penn beats us. Phy
sically we will be ready.
(Special to Lake County Time.) Valparaiso, Ind., Nov. 11. The Garv
football team defeated the Chicago Polish Eagles at the fair grounds in this city, Sunday afternoon, by a score of 17 to 0. The Garv team scored its
first touchdown near the end of the
second half when Forney went over for a touchdown on a twenty-yard run. In the second half Wilson of the Gary
team broke through the visitors' line for two runs of thirty and fifty yards.
Marks kicked two goals. The visitors
put up a plucky defense and gained a lot of ground on punting, but they were finally put to route by the varied attack of the Gary team.

Gov. Hanly Orders All Sher
iffs and Police in State to Prevent Bouts.
Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 11. Governor Hanly has sent a letter to all county sheriffs and police superintendents in Indiana, ordering them to prevent prize fights in the future and declaring he will furnish any assistance necessary
if it be needed. Special attention is called to the law and the governor
intimates he will hold the officers re
snonslble If it is not enforced. He
says, in part:
"It makes no difference whether the
bodily harm Inflicted or intended to be inflicted is slight or serious. It is not necessary that it be either brutal or fatal. It matters not whether the con
testants are friends or enemies, or
whether the contest is for points, or to
a finish, or whether it is for a limited nnmbpr of rounds, or until a decision
is rendered.
"If the contest is between two or more persons in a public place, by agreement, with an intention on the nart of the combatants to inflict any
degree of punishment, or achieve a vie
tory, it at once sinks to the level of a fight, and if the contest is by agree
ment in either a public or private place
with intent on the part of the com
batants to inflict physical punishment in any degree, or to achieve a victory f.-r a reward, it at once sinks to the
lower level of a prize fight, and is in
violation of the sections of the stautes
first above referred to."

East Chicago, Ind., Nov. 11. The

Lexington, Ky.. Nov. 11. Governor J. C. W. Beckham has prepared a lengthy and stinging reply to the criticisms of Henry Watterson in which he lays the blame for the recent democratic defeat in the state to the door of the Louisville editor. He declares that Watterson has been blowing hot and cold in the same breath and all the while attempting to create strife in the party. That Watterson made a speech at Lexington declaring it was wrong to dash the mint julep away from the Hps of the Kentuckians and, later, seeing that he had stirred up the temperance people, he wrote a lengthy editorial. In which he went back on everything he had said. He attacks the political career of Watterson and declares that he aspires to that place In the United States senate to which he was chosen at the democratic primaries last year. Governor Beckham, since the election of the republican ticket, has been closeted almost every hour with political advisers from various parts of the state, and it is shown that the republicans will be in a position to name the speaker of the house, who will roost likely be a democrat, and that the chances for electing, a United States senator and defeating Governor Beck
ham are brighter.
l-iai'orte, the only remaining con
tender for the championship of North
ern Indiana, was vanquished Saturday
by the sturdy warriors of the purple
and white by the decisive score of 12
to 5. For the first time in its history
tne Hammond high school Is supreme
in this department of athletics, in the
Northern part of Hoosierdom. and are now contenders for the highest honors 1 in the state, although it is not likely that this supremecy will ever be decided by actual contest. With a small crowd watching the game from the sidelines at the fair grounds, chilled to the bone by the raw west wind, and disheartened by the drizzle, which soaked the field previous
to the blow of the whistle, both teams lost their spiciness and sank down into gruelling grinding struggle for victory.
Mole holes and hlllocka were a con
stant menace to the speed and execution of the plays which Hammond has been accustomed to pull off on grounds that were reasonably decent. What
little footing there was left was made slippery by the rain which drizzled
down upon the players previous to the
game.
With all of these disadvantages the
visitors outplayed, outgeneraled and put to route their opponents who failed
to show up with their expected strength. There was no particularly brilliant article of ball played by either side, but there was absolutely no question of the superiority of the Hammond eleven, although their plays were made on apparent flukes. They gained
the most ground, put up the strongest defense and had they played on even terms would have left behind them a
mangled mass of hopes and ambitions.
The struggle itself was fought with
dogged determination by both sides.
Rough tactics featured in many of the plays In which one side was no better than the other, and several of the play
ers were severely banged up. All of the Hammond boys though injured to a greater or less extent stuck in the
game to the finish, while Bohland, Hook
and Zumsteln were removed from their
opponent's line. At times sixteen min
utes were taken out at a time for the
recovery of a player and during the small interval that a player was not laid out, the players were arguing the decision of the referee. The touchdowns were made by Quigg and Hunter for
Hammond, and Hook for LaPorte.
Coach Allee, is reported to be much
disastlsfied with the work of the locals and believes that they should have run
up a large score on the LaPorte ag
gregation. They clearly showed their superiority in every department of the game and outweighed their opponents
eight pounds to the man. With all of the regulars in the game and a field where the ability of the game could be tested the victory would surely have
been more decisive.
This morning the entire high school following its usual custom In the event of a great victory, will celebrate the
occasion by speeches and merry making
this morning until all has been said and then they will be dismissed for the remainder of the morning. At a late hour last night it was reported that
members of the team and the faculty
of the high school were working In
preparation of the speech which they would be asked, to deliver today. The entire city, as well as the high school
body, are Jubilant over the outcome
and too much credit cannot be given the successful warriors, and the good
work of Coach Allee.
The following is the game in detail
The game started with a rush a few minutes after 3 o'clock. Hunter kicked
off to LaPorte, the wind carrying the
ball into Blick's arms. Elick was
downed and a forward pass immedl
ately attempted. Hook caught the ball
but lost ground. The ball was ad
vanced to the thirty yard line. In

there was a wild run and scramble fo

nard-rought in every detail and the honors went to the husky sons of
Bessemer park, who fought under a decided disadvantage throughout the contest. Each side failed to retrister a
touchdown and was unable to clinch a
victory. The time of the halves were twenty-five and thirty minutes each. A large attendance was present to encourage the players, over a thousand
rooting for the home team while the South Chicago aggregation brought
with them a contingent of about two hundred supporters.
Promptly at 3 o'clock the Thistles
kicked to South Chicago and the ball was downed on the latter's ten-vard
line. On a forward pass by Ellison
to fcayer the latter made a gain of thirty yards. A hard line plunge off tackle then netted them ten yards. In the next succession of plays by a series
of end plays, forward passes and de
layed passes the ball was advanced to
the twenty-yard line, where South
Chicago failed to gain on two of the
downs and attempted a forward pass for
the third. Sayer received the ball and
had a clear field for a touchdown, but
the crowd which had swarmed onto
the field interferred with the play and
he was stopped so that he could be
tackled. This was done so hard that
he had the wind knocked out of him and was laid out for a short period. The ball also was lost on the play because of the hard tackle. On the first play the Thistles punted for thirty-
five yards and during the remainder of the half the ball remained in their territory.
At the beginning of the second half
the ball was kicked to the Thistles on their fifteen-yard line. They were held for downs here and South Chicago got the ball. The Bessemer lads in turn were also held for downs. The
thistles then punted and the South
Chicago team immediately lost the ball
on a forward pas3. The Thistles then made twenty yards on a straight buck off tackle and continued to gain until they reached South Chicago's twentyyard line, where they were held.
