YALE m TO
DM ORISON
Harvard Rules Slight Favorite,
But the New Haven Con
tingent is Confident. Kicking
Duel Between Mahan and
Guernsey.
Cambridge, Mass. —The anxiety felt
during yesterday’s downpour as to
weather conditions for the Harvard-
Yale football game today was dissi
pated when the sun rose in a clear
sky .with a fresh west wind blowing
Soldiers' Field. The huge white
magnet of the stadium drew nearly
50,000 enthusiasts to the annual strug
gle.
Rising triumphant from what two
weeks ago looked like a disastrous
year, the Yale team came to Cam
bridge today flushed with its victory
over Princeton last we«;;. It was
fairly confident either of victory over
Harvard or of repeating the wonder
ful rally of five years ago, when tha
blue forces, after an equally discour
aging preliminary season, held an ad
mittedly stronger crimson aggrega
tion to a scoreless tie.
Against the Blue hopes, the Har
vard team lined up today as a ten
to eight favorite among the betting
fraternity.
Experts regarded the center of the
Yale squad, with Black, White and
J. Sheldon as the apex of the defense
and Guernsey's toe, which did such
valiant service against Princeton, as
the Blue's principal offensive asset.
The reliance of the Harvard offense
seemed to be in the deceptiveness of
play, with Mahan back, threatening to
punt but ready to dash around the
end or through the center or to fling
a forward pass to one of his ends.
STOVALL TELLS
STATE DEFICIT
Author of Prohi Bill Says
Georgia’s Income to Be Re
duced Considerably By Pas
sage of Measure. (
Atlanta, Ga.—The senate Friday aft
ernoon concurred in several amend
ments of the senate appropriations
committee, increasing appropriations
to state institutions several thousand
dollars over those allowed by the house
of representatives earlier in the week.
While these increases were being voted
by large majorities, Senator Stovall of
the thirtieth, author of the drastic pro
hibition bills that have bepn enacted
into laws, and senator Moon, of the
thirty-seventh made the declaration
that the passage of these temperance
bills wpuld greatly curtail the re
sources \pf the treasury.
Senator Stovall stated that In his
opinion, the income of the state would
be reduced $150,000 in 1916 and SIOO,-
000 in 1917 by the passage of the pro
hibition bill.
Senator Moon stated that he had
made a careful study of the states fin
ance and that the state at this time
was in the hole $313,337; both senators
urged that in view of this condition,
the appropriations be held down in
the upper branch of the general as
sembly. The increases already made
by the house were said to bring the
deficit to $150,000.
Again in this connection, Senator
Stovall said that he believed it would
be necessary to raise the tax rate the
limit of five mills, irrespective of the
fact that it has only recently been in
creased to 4-80 mills. “I doubt,” he
said, "if even this will take care of
the deficit.”
The action of the senate in changing
appropriations, will of course, neces
sitate the return of the appropriations
bill to the house for concurrence. It
is generally believed that the house
will agree to some of the Increases, but
not to all of them.
Amusements
AT THE MODJESKA.
Three comedies and two dramas
compose the program at the Modjeska
today and out of the five pictures
three are really features.
Perhaps the chief shining light in
the comedy line is the Essanay two
reeier in which Charlie Chaplin ap
pears. It is called “A Woman,” and
is a return cngi gement by special re
quest. On its last appearance in Au
gusta it created quite a stir on ac
count of the absolute novelty of the
humor. Mr. Chplain is indeed at his
best. Remember, this is not a Key
stone but a regular feature Essanay.
Helen Holmes, the dare-devil of the
movies and a woman reckoned with
out nerves, is to be seen in “The
Rescue of the Brakeman's Children.”
It Is a Kalem thriller and on the same
order of most of her plays But it
keeps your nerves on edge and the
daring stunts she pulls are worth go
ing to see.
"The Flashlight” is a Selig drama
in two parts; "Between Two F'lres'
is a funny Vitagrtrph comedy, and
“All Stuck Up" is another Flssanay
comedy. m
S. C. AND GEORGETOWN
CLASH IN WASHINGTON
Washington.—South Carolina and
Georgetown met here this afternoon in
the last game of tits local season.
Perfect football weather prevailed and
the attendance whs expected to be the
largest of any game here thia year.
Georgetown, almost three pounds to
a man heavier than Its opponent, was
confident of making a better show
ing against the South Carolinians
than that made by Virginia, which
won from them last Saturday, 13 to J.
Coach Edgerton of South Carolina
said this morning:
”1 realize that In Georgetown we
are up against a mlehty strong foot
ball team but my men are in good
condition and they will fight to the
last ditch.”
Armless Man Elected Judge; Writes
With His Pen in Teeth
David Moylan telephoning, and writ ing; a sample of his writing.
Cleveland, O.—David Moylan, just
elected judge in this city, is armless.
It was being armless that gave him
ambition.
He started as a railroader, and one
night fell off a string of box cars un
der the wheels, which took off one
arm. He recuperated, returned to
railroading, and slipped on an icy
track under the wheels, which took
off the other arm.
Then Moylan. aged 27, decided to
study law.
He had his boks rigged up so he
could turn the leaves with his tongue.
CONFESSIONS OF A WIFE
NO. 4.
MR. STUART BECOMES CONFI
DENTIAL.
“This Is the first tijne in my life
that any one of my dreams has come
true,” whispered Mr. Stuart as we
I whirled away.
“Ever since that last dance with
1 you, Mrs. Waverly, I have dreamed
of another. It brought me back here
and tonight I accepted Harry's invi
tation because I thought you might be
here.”
i "1 believe you have never met my
; husband, Mr. Stuart,” I said rather
pointedly.
i “No, but I should love to meet such
a lucky man,” he answered quickly,
taking his cue immediately and over
j whelming me with no more flattery.
We danced in silence and I gave
myself up to the rythm of the music.
All at once I was startled by a loud
burst of applause, and, looking about,
I found that Jim and Donna, Mr
Stuart and I were the only people
lon the floor.
| "You’ve got to go some to outdo
, us.” said Jim as he passed us.
I Then began a sort of dream dance.
I was conscious that Mr. Stuart was
taking me through all sorts of evo
lutions and that I was following him
as though we had been dancing all
our lives. Donna and Jim also were
doing stunts and the others were
laughing and encouraging us.
At last Jim persuaded Donna to
'dance on the stairs and away they
floated up the broad steps to wild ap
plause.
Mr. Stuart stopped abruptly and as
they came dowi. in perfect rythm we
went over to them and bowing low,
handed them a great palm leaf that
|he had quickly plucked from a nearby
i jardiniere.
“Come, good people," cailed Eliene,
“let’s have an ice, or something else
to cool our parched lips that have
been shouting admiration for these
wonderful dancing dolls.”
We all trooped to the dining room.
Mr. Stuart found me a seat some
where apart from the others and
brought me an Ice.
He stood looking down upon me in
rather a speculative manner.
“Are they worth more than a pen
ny," I asked banterlngly.
"Almost thou persuaded me,” was
his enigmatic reply.
“To what?” I asked curiously.
"That there are women in this
world who are good and true as well
; as beautiful.”
"What a terrible speech.”
"Not more terrible than the ex
perience that at last brings a man
! to make it.”
; "You surely can’t mean that, Mr.
Stuart,” I said all at once soberly.
"Perhaps it la because you have never
really known a woman. You should
have married years ago."
“I did,” was the surprising an
swer.
"But Harry and Eliene told me you
were a bachelor. Forgive me if I say
too much. I do not mean to pry into
your affairs unless yod want to tell
me.”
"There Is nothing to forgive. Even
, Harry and Eliene do not know that
Chapter of my life. It is closed I had
though forever. I do not know yet
just why 1 have opened It again to
you. I suppose I was anxious to
make you understand that once upon
a time 1 had wonderful enthusiasm,
great hopes. strong principles and
i absolute belief— .
“‘And now?”
“I lost all T hoped for because of
those same principles and sometimes
I wonder If they were worth It. You

“She too. Is dead”" I questioned.
“Worse; she Is still alive, hot she
has effectually killed my belief | n wo
men, and T find that when a man loses
that, his belief In everything else
grows haxy."
T looked at Mr. Stuart In great sur
prise. Ttntll this moment he had be»n
the personificatl,,n of good looks good
j nature and good fellowship, hla hrn«/ n
After four years he was admitted to the
bar. The examiners offered an oral
test. No—he would take it like any
body else else would. He wrote the
examination anwsers with his pen in
his mouth.

too thin lips drew together rather
cruelly.
His somewhat contemptuous love
making to every woman was explain

mined that no woman's heart would
break, that they were always playing
the game with a cord or two up their
sleeves and if in spite of this they
lost, they started with another part

"I'm awfnly sorry for you,’’! said.
“You need not be. I have my good

"That is not what I mean. You
