Teasing, coaxing and finally scolding
the great human engine to still fur
ther exertion, on the very eve of a
great battle, the little tow-headed gen
eral of the Blue and White line ob
tained more results at last night’s final
preparatory exercise yet brought out
at one practice.
To-day the results of these tedious
hours of hard labor, these never-ceas
ing charges against an imaginary foe,
and these careful lessons gone through
under the ferret eye of Oope will be
measured against the hammer-and
tongs tactics of the Orange and Black.
Outpointed everywhere except In skill
and endurance. Savannah will face the
heavier Jacksonville line with odds in
the betting against the sombre colors
of the metropolis of Flowerland.
Despite the importation of a number
of college "formerly were" stars, and
the excess in avoirdupois, in the bet
ting Jacksonville is at the small end
and odds of 5 to 2 were freely offered
last night, without a taker. At these
odds there Is plenty of {Savannah money
floating around, and if reports of the
financial condition of the visitors be
true, with their intent to bet, great
lumps of the soft will be wagered this
morning.
Jnya Arrived East Xight.
The Jays arrived last night, seven
teen strong, headed by Bill Jones and
Tom Dozier. Tom wore the same old
smile and Bill was unusually argumen
tative over the great possibilities of his
eleven. All who have seen Jones play
here during former games know that
he Is the most dangerous man on the
Jacksonville line up. He was not with
the team which Savannah rolled over
last season.
Tom Dozier is not a football expert,
but he has the Jacksonville spirit and
says there is no doubt of the Orange
and Black floating triumphant this
trip. "We have the best team of for
ward passers and off-side players I
have even seen,’’ said Tom, in all se
riousness, “and I believe they will be
able to redeem Jacksonville’s football
reputation” Tom really meant this as
a -compliment to two of the many vir
tues of the men.
Thought Mull Was Jones.
■When the Jacksonville boys were
awakened at the Union Station last
night to leave the train, some of them
caught sight of Dominick MuUaney in
blue overalls and trainman’s can, just
disappearing around a curve, between
two red lights, attached to the tail
end of an out-going freight train. There
was a wild rush from the passenger
train, and in a few minutes the en
tire Jay eleven was in full pursuit of
the freight, believing that Jones was
on board and that they had aU missed
connections. Jones is a dead ringer
for Mull.
In all seriousness, the team which
Jacksonville sends up against Savan
nah to-day is the most formidable that
enthusiastic sporting burg has turned
loose on an unsuspecting opponent in
Its history. The easy confidence of the
local supporters mav have a very se
rious Jar with the opening of to-day’s
festivities out on the Bolton green. Sa
vannah's strong defensive play, how
ever, is depended on to win the game
or tie it. In support of this bets at
even money that the visitors would
not score were made freely last night.
About 150 rooters from Jacksonville
accompanied the team, and will make
things merry in the event of a Jay
triumph to-day. The visitors took up
quarters at the Pulaski House, where
special arrangements were made for
, their aoeornmodatlon.

largely relieve the crush at the ticket
office at the grounds. Up to the clos
ing hour last night over half of the
seats on the stands on the northern
side line had been reserved, and it is
believed there will be fully a,OOO people
on hand.
Many held off from buying tickets
until late last night, waiting to see
what the weather promised. A cloud

dicating a perfect football day pro

A force of twenty-flve patrolmen, In
command of Sergts. Murnhy and

intendent of pollc*. to attend the game
and keep the crowds off the side lines
Despite the fact that the gridiron has
been Inclosed in a barbed wire fence
many spectators crawl through and
follow the play so closely, that very
often the men are Interfered with. An
other evil of the crowding on the side
lines is the obstructing of the view of

these Inconveniences wlii be suffered
to-do*’.
The best way to sec a football game
Is to got a good seat.' and use onera

these glasses are used. Every ps*s of

almost impossible following the play

CHARLESTON PLAYS
FURMAN UNIVERSITY.
Galls Have Hardest Game of the
Season on for To-day.
Charleston has the hardest football
game played so far this season on for
to-day with Furman University.
If the Gulls are able to defeat this
crack college eleven they will still fur
ther demonstrate that they are able to
defeat almost any college eleven in
the South.
Five of Furman’s men are well known
in the football world. Frank Watkins,
fullback, was formerly with the Uni
versity of Virginia; Sam Nichols, half
back, formerly with the V. P. I.; Law
rence and Laboon of the Furman team
of 1900.
Halfback Nichols is the man who
played fullback for Charleston against
Savannah last year. Altogether the
Furman team, though having had few
real important games this season, has
not yet been scored on, and Is said
to be one of the best In the South.
CORNELL THE WINNER IN
CROSS-COUNTRY RACE.
Cnpturcd Hie C'luuuplonHlilp from
In- Other Colleger,
New York, Nov. 23.—Cornell’s ath
letes once more captured the Inter
collegiate cross country championship
in the run to-day over the course be
tween Pelham Manor station and the
home of the New York Athletic Club
on Travers' Island in Long Island
Sound.
Five teams, made up of thirty-four
runners, representing Cornell, Colum
bia, Harvard. Yale and the University
of Pennsylvania, took part in the con
test. and of the seven men who car
ried the Ithacan colors, four finished in
the first five places, winning the hon
or with a total of 12 points.
Pennsylvania was second with 41
points; Yale, third, 51; Harvard,
fourth, 52, and Columbia, fifth, 73.
T. Newman of Cornell finished first,
his time being 32:52.
be well to bear in mind that the visitors
have had just as much opportunity to
improve since the game with the Fort
Screven team as Savannah.
No one will argue that Kennedy is
Cope’s equal in generalshUrt exper
ience or punting. His playing is well
known to a number of local enthus
iasts. Savannah’s line has lighter, but
more experienced men in it. The Jack
sonville papers claim the fastest back
field in the South. This is a little
amusing to local lovers of the game,
as this is where Savannah has always
excelled.
The harmony of the visitor's back
field is not known, nor is Its speed,
but every hard earned dollar of local
money will back up the belief that the
backs which will be presented to-day
are unsurpassed in the South. Figur
ing the ends there is every reason to
give the palm to such veterans as
Lansberg, Smith and Cubbedge. Vital
positions on any team, these are weU
cared for on the Blue and White line.
Shitting Johnson from tackle to full
back seems to have been a wise move.
Seemlngiy, especially designed for the
backfleld. with all of the requirements
of a line plunging tackle, Johnson is
the peer of any “all-Southern” full
back. He has never played college
football, but he has tackled some of
the toughest propositions in the way of
rough and tumbles on the lots, ever
seen.
Cornwall was the only absent mem
ber at the practice last night, but he
will be in the game at the kick off
to-day. Cubbedge will succeed Smith
at end for the first half anyway, he be
ing more familiar with the new tac
tics since Smith was incapacitated for
practice by illness. Mitchell is regain
ing his old time form, and seems to
have warmed up his feet, which were
slightly below the normal temperature
in the two preceding games. If he
will only duplicate the daredevil spirit
he exhibited in the New Year’s game
with Charleston last January there will
be no kick.
A number of parties of society peo
ple have been made up and will at
tend the game. .
Special reservations were made yes
terday for two parties of twelve each,
and one of eight people. Other par
ties will go out in traps, from which
they will view the game from the side
lines.

SMATHERS MAY BUY BELLE MEADE
Sale of the Once Great Luhe Blachburn, Sire of

Luke Blackburn sold for 325 —less

It was paid by Gen. Jackson.
When a Belle Meade disposal sale

barely enough flesh on his bones to

FAKED A FIGHT
REFEREE QUIT IN DISGUST.
EXHIBITION OF THE FISTIO ART
WAS HISSED.
Six-Rnnnd Boat Had Been Sched
uled, bnt the Fighter* llnd Agreed
to Make It a. Fake Exhibition.
They Had to Have Police Protec
tion After They Had Concluded
Their Fiasco.
Philadelphia, Nov. 23.—The fight be
tween Tommy Ryan, the middleweight
champion, and Jack Root of Chicago,
the light heavyweight, which was
scheduled to go six rounds at the Na
tional Athletic Club to-night, was end
ed In the middle of the fourth round,
by the referee. Jack McGuigan, pro
nouncing it 9- fake.
It was one of the most unsatisfac
tory pugilistic affairs ever held in this
city, and the spectators, long before
the referee stopped the bout, showed
their disapproval of the exhibition.
Trouble was averted by the prompt
work of the police In jumping in the
ring and protecting the fighters and in
clearing the hall. The managers of
both fighters vehemently protested
against the action of the referee, but
they found few sympathizers in the
crowd.
P-van and Root were late In enter
ing the ring. After the spectators had
been kept waiting a half hour the ref
eree, who has an Interest in the club,
announced that the fighters were
counting the money in the box office.
He explained that the house was a
slim one, and that each man wanted
his money before entering the ring.
Five minutes later Ryan and Root ap
peared.
The men did nothing more than feint
for nearly a full minute in the opening
round, which was followed by a light
exchange of blows which left no mark
on the fighters. The spectators began
to hiss the men toward the end of the
round, and as they took their corners
a storm of disapproval was hurled at
them.
In the second round not a solid blow
was struck. The third round was so
palpably poor that Referee McGuigan
leaned ag’ainst the ropes and waved his
hands in disgust at the fighters at
tempt to mix it up. After two min
utes and twenty seconds of the round
had passed, Root swung on Ryan and
the latter dropped to the floor to a.void
it. At this action the referee turned
his back on the men and the specta
tors bec'ame very noisy. Ryan got
on one knee and seeing that the ref
eree was not tolling off the seconds, the
fighters went to their corners.
The confusion was great. At the
expiration of three minutes the bell
rang, but instead of sitting in their
corners, the men thought it was the
beginning of the fourth round. The
referee let them go. He watched them
again attempt to land blows, which
they did without damage and after one
minute and thirty-three seconds had
elapsed he jumped through the ropes
and left the men In the ring alone.
His action was met with approval by
the crowd.
The moment McGuigan left the men,
a half hundred police under command
of a daptain surrounded the ring.
Suddenly a soda water bottle, which
had been thrown from the gallery,
dropped in the middle of the ring.
Then' a score of policemen climbed
through the ropes end waved their
hands for the crowd to calm down.
When the police had a semblance of
control Ryan and Root were led to
their dressing rooms under hdavy es
cort.
Yale players. Backed by a well-known
abolitionist sentiment at Harvard,
Wrightington was at first obdurate
’unftil told pointblank by the Yale
head coach that no more negroes must
be played on Harvard.
It is said that Yale and Princeton
contemplate forming a three-cornered
league with Pennsylvania and drop
ping Harvard altogether.
It leaked out that Princeton had
taken a hand In the row and told
Harvard plainly that football rela
tions would never be resumed until
Harvard agreed not to play negroes.
Princeton nearly killed a Dartmouth
negro in a ga’ne last fall, and will
not even tolerate black men in col
lege.
As white-men's colleges Princeton
and Yale, it is said, have read the riot
act to Harvard and delivered ultimat
ums, through men close to the ath
letic leaders, that the Crimson must
pass up negroes.
Sam Bryant e-f that ain't the truth.”
He might add that it was a shame
that old Luke had to be disposed of
alongside a milch cow—that really was
the grim humor of the Belle Meade
auctioneer last week, to -place • mlld
eyed, cud-chewing domestic animal
alongside the once mighty meet- as a
sort of a buffer for his own senti
mental oratory. How well he succeed
ed! Mr. Allison deserves the com
mendations of all that used to see rac
ing a quarter of a century ago, when
Luke was tn his prime as a racing
tool, for taking the old animal. "Mehly
for sentiment." is what the purchaser
said. “He will Jes' go otsten my pas
tuh and roll and eat hlsself to a peace
ful death. He's earned a pleasant
end.”
With the rounding up of the odds
and ends at famous old Belle Meade
stock farm by the auctioneer the last
of the historic place, so far as Its pres
ent owners are concerned, will have
been noted. But there Is considerable
probability thnt Belle Meade will bloom
again. Millionaire E. E. ftroathert,
touched by the sentimental sale of
Luke Blackburn, Is making “goo-goo"
eyes at Gen. Jackson's broad acres and
fine barns. He wishes to have a stud
farm home for that other great, but
much younger,thoroughbred."Big Mac,”
otherwise MvGhesne-y. If the rich man
gets through with his little controversy
over the trotting of Lou Dillon and
oan spend time enough to run over
from Memphis doubtless he will be a
bidder for old Belle Meade. Luke
Blackburn, the king, Is dead—or might
as well I>—Utng live the equine king,

ARBITRATED PROFITS IN
FLORIDA LAND DEAL.
Valdosta, Ga., Nov. 23.—The board of
arbitration In the case of W. N. Har
rell vs. M. M. Smith for the division
of the profits from a sale of land in
Florida, to Wisconsin parties was filed
in the Superior Court to-day and made
the judgment of the court. The
board’s verdict was in favor of Mr.
Harrell, giving him all he claimed—
an equal division of the profits, to
gether with any other sum that may
hereafter accrue from the sale, there
being a suit for something like SIO,OOO,
besides the amount in bank.
While Mr. Harrell was residing In
New York two or three years ago he
found a customer for some land in
South Florida and sent the party to
Mr. Smith, his brother-in-law, who
made -the trade, clearing about $35,000
on the deal. Mr. Harrell claimed half
of the profits and Mr. Smith took the
position that he should have only a
commission. The board of arbitration
agreed with Mr. Harrell. The case
was to settle a friendly dispute and
was taken out of court by the parties
at interest.
The case of W. G. Van Norden vs.
the Savannah, Florida and Western
road for $50,000 damages, was contin
ued, after a full day had been con

business. Gain his confidence; make
him your friend; convince him of the
value of your product. When he de
mands your goods, the dealer and the
jobber have to * furnish them and
you have risen superior to the petty
prejudices and jealousies of the jobber;
you can make your own price and main
