Old Oxford Wins Meet With Cambridge. Yankee Is Star

London, March 23. The OxfordCambridge field sports at Queen's club were won by the former university, six events to four. "''r: :" 1' The victory of Hull, an American Rhodes scholar at Oxford, in the quarter mile was a notable display of grit. He was 'working through the field about 100 yards from the start when he stumbled and sprained his ankle badly; but this did not deter him. He quickly pulled himself together, picked up the field again, and, in spite of the intense pain, went to the front GEORGE BON HA WILL BE A FIRST OVERTIME CUE WHS PLAYED Yale Was Again the Winner in A Hard Fought Y.

At no time were the teams separated by more than two points. When the final gong rang the score was 23 to 23 and overtime was played without intermission. The team to score two points first was to be the winner and both fives began to work their hardest. The overtime playing was all in Princeton territory, however, and Compton scored the winning marker on a difficult shot from near the outside line. Ranch Half Way Point.

Putnam, a Rhodes scholar from Kansas, would win the hammer throw for Oxford, but he had to be contented with second place.' "Watson of Cambridge beat all varsity records with a throw of 14-feet 10- teebes. - Putnam was second with 143 feet 10 inches and D. O.

G STA TES HE PROFESSIONAL half way point in the season. Yale enters- the last lap in the league. Before last night's game the blue was tied with Princeton for first honors. Yale played without its regular center and before the game it was feared the absence of Wiecbman would prove a severe loss. Princeton was short one of its regular players and Hasecoster filled in at guard. The game -was high spirited. Spangler did nearly all of the scoring for his team mates, his work' in throwing goals from the foul line being a feature. Summary: Yale. Princeton. Kelsey .... ....

lobby unannounced for several minutes asking bell boys for his father before the latter knew his son was in the big foyer. The moment the anxious parent heard tbat a strange boy was in the hotel sauntering in aimless fashion he rushed across the lobby, grasped him in his arms and smothered his face with kisses. " "My boy! he cried. Tears were streaming from the strong man's eyes as he grasped the boy in his arms and rushed for the stairway. Dramatic Scene Enacted. A dramatic scene was enacted as the father seized his Bon in his arms. Only a few seconds was .required to tell the crowd in the lobby that it was Whitla and his son they saw rushing for the stairs. "Speech! Speech!" was the cry. The father kept on weeping as he fled. He remained in the room he had prepared for the boy for some time. When he reappeared the cries for a speech were redoubled in volume, the hotel by that time being filled with the curious. Men pressed forward to press the father's hand. Finally he stood up beside a divan. "I can't speak, my heart is too full," he said. "I can only say that this is my son who was lost and is found. I want to thank the people of Cleveland, the press and the police for their kindness and sympathy. I never could have stood it but for the thousands of friends that came to me." Whitla senior refused to state whether he had paid the ransom or not. He said that he received a letter yesterday from the kidnapers at his home in Sharon saying that if he called at a confectionery store in the East End of Cleveland he would be told how to secure his boy unharmed and "well fed." Leaves Sharon for Cleveland. Shortly after noon he left Sharon for Cleveland. He was unaccompanied. His immediate family and the private detectives he apprised of the proposed secret meeting, but insisted that he make the trip alone. Every one of them was warned that he must be allowed to go unheeded and no attempt at the capture of the kidnapers be made. Whitla was certain that if he spoiled the plans of his son's captors last night he would never see the boy again. His experience at Ashtabula served as a warning. About 2 o'clock in the afternoon he went to a candy store in the East End. With him he carried the $10,000. expecting that it would be demanded of him there. He was met by a woman, who detailed to him the terms of the kidnapers. ' : ; . With all the eagerness of a distracted parent, Whitla agreed to them immediately. Detectives in his employ say that he paid the money, but on this point the father declines to commit himself. Half an hour later he returned to the Hollenden hotel and awaited developments. His entrance was shrouded in secrecy. By a previous arrangement made with the hotel management he did not register. Woman Bears Message. The woman 'at the candy store had done her duty. She communicated with the captors of the boy and told them that the father had made no attempt to trap them. The kidnapers were satisfied. But Whitla senior declines to name the woman in charge of the confectionery store and almost dares the police to locate her. So the boy was brought from his hiding placewhere it was no one knows to a car line in the East End of the city which would bring him into town quickly. The kidnaper, according to Willie, was cheerful enough. The mysterious one and the youngster skipped in schoolboy fashion toward the trolley line, jesting in the mean time. Places Eyeglasses on Boy. A few rods from the car line the man stopped the boy. Pulling a pair of smoked glasses from his pocket he adjusted them to the boy's head with the remark: "You'll lopk better in these. The sides of the black yarn cap were pulled carefully over the boy's ears. A slip which he was to hand the conductor was put in the boy's pocket. It read: "Send this boy to the Hollenden Hotel double quick. Willie says the man told him that if anybody asked him who took him to the car line to tell them it was "Mr. Jones." ' ; "Just tell them your name is Jones, too, if you want to," said the kidnaper. "All right, Mr. Jones," answered Willie. Presently a car came into view and the mysterious Mr. Jones drew the boy closer to him. Promises to See His Papa. ' "Well, Willie, you are going downtown now and you will see .your papa pretty soon," he said. This delighted Willie. ; He swung on to the car quickly, according to the conductor. . "Mr. Jones" paid the boy's fare and then got off the car and disappeared after waving a friendly adieu. This farewell salute to his . little captive was continued until the car had . disappeared in the inky darkness of. the night. "How fast does a motor car take yon? ss,: .... : "It depends on what you mean." answered Mr.Cbuggtaa.

SLOWS DEFEATED THE FAST BOWLERS Good Contest at the City Bowling Alleys. In a contest at the city alleys in which those who use the slow ball for bowling were lined up against those who send the wooden sphere with great force, the Slows won by two out of threes. The games were interesting and the result a surprise. It was a test of the two styles of bowling. Markley of the Slows, bowled 223, 176 and 208. Roberts of the same team, rolled 203, 187 and 244. Kenney did the best work for the Swifts, bowling 177, 224 and 233.. ; . , The Gloins took the- Wilsons-lor three straight games in the Class. B league at the Y- M. C, A. last evening. The highest score was 188, rolled by gillespie. A few of the bowlers were not up to their, usual form. . Russian Education. The "lntelligenzla" of Russia, writes the Hon. Maurice Baring in "A Year In Russia; Is, properly speaking, composed "of" every one who can read or write.' "But the term Is generally used to designate ' those members of the middle class who belong to the professional classes doctors, professors, teachers and literary men. The average man or woman of the Russian middle class is better educated than the average English man or woman of the ssme class. They are saturated with the foreign classics. They often speak two languages besides Russian, and they are conversant with modern thought In the various European countries so far as It Is allowed te reach them. They are taught at school things which will be useful to them. Every one receives a general foundation of knowledge. The average Russian boy knows more about English history than the average English boy, let alone European history- A cultivated Russian of the middle class Is saturated with John Stuart Mill. Raskin. Morley and Carlyle. and Shake speare. Milton and Shelley are treated as Russian classics. Business Man Here's a shilling for you to go to the concert. Office Boy Thankee, sir.

DEATH OF THE WORLD. When Water Disappears and Air Gets Too Thin to Breathe. The age, of the earth is placed by some st 500,000,000 years, by others 100,000,000 years, and still others of later time place it at 10,000.000 years. None place it lower than 10,000.000. knowing what processes have been gone through. Other planets go through the same process. The reason that other planets differ so much from the earth is that they are in so much earlier or later stages of existence. The earth must become old. Newton surmised, although he could give no reason for It, that the earth would lose all its water and become perfectly dry. Since then It has been found that Newton wss correct. As the earth keeps cooling it will become porous, and great cavities will be formed in the interior, which will take In the water. It Is estimated that this process Is now In progress, so far that the water diminishes at the rate of the thickness of a. sheet of paper each year. . . ? At this rate in 6,000,000 years the water will have sunk a mile, and la 15,000,000 the water will have disappeared from the face of the globe. The nitrogen and oxygen In the atmosphere are also diminishing all the time. It Is In an inappreciable degree, but the time will come when the air will be so thin that no creature -we know could breathe it and live.; The time will come when the world cannot support life. That will be the period of old age, and then will come death. Richard A. Proctor. . . They treated me so handsomely at the farewell banquet last night, said Mr. Barnes Tormer, "that I assured them I would come back very soon. "Yes," said Mr. Peppery, "so Crltlck told me.
