Tefinite Arrangements to Be Made This . Week for the Harvard and Tale Contest. OUR SIXGGERS WALLOP THE GTMS. Ecsnlfs of the Trotting Frrnts at LtTJnjrton General Sporting Kcws ef the Day. It is a very long time since there was such an exciting football game in or about Pittsburg as that of yesterday at Recreation Park. The contest was between the Pitts burg team and the Homesteads, both of the Association League, and it v.as a champion ship game. There were about 600 people present, and the best kind of Association football was seen. The home players were beaten, although they played with great skill and remarkable pluck. Hut there were two elements, and Tery important ones, that contributed al most entirely to the home defeat. One was the fact of the Homestead team being much stroncer than they were when they played a tie with the McKccsnorts on the lOlh, and the other cause was the fact that the home team had three of their best players absent. Tliis was A VERY rOOLISI TltlXQ on the part of the Pittsburg, particularly when they had such a strong lot as -the Homesteads to tackle. It was an experiment and it was a bad one The I'ittsburgs will need all the cames thev can get to in the pennant, and at all times they should hare their strongest team on the field. The um pires were: For Pittsburg Harry Penn, and for Homestead J. Fereuson. Fred Goodwvn was referee nnd he did extremely well, riot one of liis decisions being complained of.

In the first half goals were very hard to get, indeed. A short time before "the half finished tho visitors made a splendid goal amid applause, nnd the half ended 1 to 0 in favor of the Homesteads. The second half had not proceeded far be fore the Pittsburgers scored by Wardle send ing the ball beautifully ppst the Homestead goal keeper. The home players then braced tip, and pl.ijed as it thev were going to eat the vi-itois up. They continually had the ball close to their opponent-,- sronl. and somo of the mot remarkable kicks were mndo to srore, nut iips. who bad charge of the Homestead oal. -nas determined that noth inc more slioulu pas luni. He plajcd bril liantly and stopped -nmc of the most skill ful kicks scn in Pittsburg. It was, without doubt, his piaving at this state tnnt jrained the day for Homestead. The Pittsburgers tried and tried until thev w ere i can-, and they could not act tbe In'll past Isles. The home players then somewhat -weakened and tin- visitors ithout much trouble pot the ball to the IVtlmr.r end. In a short time two moregoa's weie recorded imfavor of Homestead, and when time was called the scoie stood Homestead, 3: Pittsburg, 1. AN EASY VICTIM.

The game was hotly contested, and was won by tho University through their superior all around work. The only touchdown was made in five minutes after the beginning by a fine run by Gill. A kick for goal by Griggs brought the score, to 6. The play of Griggs at halfback, and the kicking of Steel was very good. For Geneva. Bell's tackling anil Dodds' half back work was lino.

The game was impoitant, be cause last week Yale bent Williams 41 to 0, and compar.-ions arc always significant. In thi- case they were odions for Harvard. Captain McClnrg, of the lnle eleven, who was :i spectator of the game, smiled in his sleeve a he snw the weaknes- of the Har vard center, and the succc-isful working by Williams of her little "criss-cross" tricks. It wue the most terribly severe game that has been seen on Jerri field this season. Three men u ere disqualified lor slugging, a.id the Williams men especially-took every opportunity of shotting their"spite by hit ting and loul tackling. Lots of .Slugging. East ORor, Oct. 17.

Tho Yale football team has had a fullmontli'spractlce and are now at a standstill. With accidents to Captain McClung and his side partner Bliss, Heffleflnger's indisposition, and Mills' sprained ankle, little advancement nas been made dating tho past ten days. Tho excellent work dono early In the sea son has faded into almost nothing, and it is doubtful if tho university team could to-day make a better showing against the fresh man eleven than it did against Stagg's team last Wednesday. In that game Van Leuren showed remarkable power, and many a Yalo man.wished that he could in some way And a place on Tale's eleven. The team is also in an unsettled condition. Stanford Mor rison's failure to appearand take hisplaco in tho rush line has kept the position of right guard a doubtful quantity and the men. including Beard, who havo done good work, have simply played with the idea that on Morrison's return to college they would bo returned to tho ranks, which means the privilege to plav on the "collejie side" and endure the brunt of hard work forced on the Varsitv." There has been no regular coaching, except that done byMc Clung, until Bull arrived on Thursday. He will give his nttontion to the tenm for a time, and after that it is expected that Kay Tompkins, Willis Terrv and Emrone Itichards will assist in putting tbe elcveu into shape. Xothing has been dono regarding the Yale-Harvard game. Yale will not issue any challenge because, as Bavne McClung's room-mate says: "It would prejudice her dignity. WON'T PLAY PEINCETOK. The Harvard Team Think Tliey Have Plenty to Meet Without Meeting the Tigers. Cavbiiidoj, Mass., Oct. 17. Special The daily practice of Harvard football candi dates is showing two or three tnings which has been somewhat appaient from the start. They are that the eleven isoing to bo strong buck of the rush line, in fact very strong, but wofnlly weak In tho center of tho center of the line. To-day the team showed better football in the game against Williams than it had Oeen capable of until now. Tho raw material which had only been used in the rough until this week is now being put through a course of sprouts, which is de veloping the men into somo sort of players. Captain Trafford has SO men at the training table. Much is being said and written about the probability of Harvard and Princeton nlay- ing a game this loll. The -feeling here is that for Harvard men the jtame-with Yale is tbo great oientot the year. They do not be lieve in playing Princeton before they play Yalc, and running the risk of losing valuable men by injury. Thev do not think that atter Thanksgiving Day. when Yale and Princeton play, it will be possible to ar range a game, and the season will be too lato if extended to that date at any rate. Though no final arrangements havo as yet been made for the Harvard and Yale came, it is among the students considered as an assured tact that it will bo played at Spring field: on November 21. There has been somo talk about its being played in New York, but such an arrangement will never be made, unless Yale agrees one year to play it in Cambridge, and in the off year to play it in Sen- Haven or Xew York, as Yale may wish. A CRUSHING DEFEAT. The t'rlnceton Reserves Very Easily Down the Media College Team. PRiitcrroir, Oct. 17. Special. The Media Academy football team suffered a crushing defeat to-day at the hands of the Princeton reserves. The game was played on the Princeton grounds. It consisted of two 30 minute halves. In the first half Media started with the V. Media was unable to gain and Horsoll kicked to Curraii. Afler several good rushes occupying ten minutes, Duscnbury made the first touch-down and Curran kicked the goal. The next touch down was made by ham Small. Sleredith and Dusenbnry followed with a touch-down in quick succession and Curi-.m kicked both goals. Score, Princeton, 22; Media, 0. Media started off with a rush. Hon-eli, their crack halt-back, made a phenomenal run, bring ing the ball up to Princeton's 20-yard and Johnston kicked a goal from the field. Time of the first half was called -vith five points to Media's credit. After 15 minutes rest the game was re sumed. Curran made a splendid dash through Media's center for ten yards. The cntiro team played with snap, and tho touch-do ns rnme in one, two, three order. When timo was called tho scoie stood: Princeton, 53; Media, 5. HABVAED AHD YA1E. Final Arrangements for Their Great Game to Ho Made This Week. Cambridge, Oct. 17 Special Two of tho most talked about young men in the country just now will meet in solemn conference at Springfield next Tuesday. They are Captain Trafford, of tho Harvard football eleven, and Captain McClung, of Yale's eleven. Although it has been taken for granted that Harvard and Yale would, of course, day a game this falland it was as generally expected that the game would be played Xovember 21, still, until to-day not a word had passed be tween the football managements of the two colleges in reference to a game. To-dav Captain Trafford received this tel egram from Captain McClung: "When and w hero can you meet me to consult regarding a football gamo between Harvard and 1 ale?" Captain Trafford immediately tele graphed this answer: -"I will meet you at Sprinzflcld next Tuesday." Harvard con siders this equivalent to a challenge and the ncgotiations'willbe successfully carried out. There is no doubt that the game will bo played at Springfield five weeks from to-day. Pennsj I vanl.t College "Wins. Gettysburg, Oct. 17. Secial.-Tiie Penn sylvania College team scored six touch downs and one goal against the Scrubs to day.

August Ili-lmont's rampus Stallion, St Blaise, Brings 8100,000 Charles Held, offtieFatrvIcwSturi, the Purchaser Ho Bid the Limit and Stopped All Others. Xew York, Oct, 17. Special Charles Roid, the proprietor of the Fairview stud, Gallatin,- Tenn, electrified tho 1,000 persons at Tattersall's to-night when the last draft of the Hon.AugustBelmont's thoroughbred race horses were old. by bidding $100,f00 for the famous sire St. Blaise, son of Hermit and Fusee. This is by a long ways the highest price ever paid for "a thorough bred stallion'in a ring sale, and Mr. Roid, who was determined to have the horse to head his stud, bid his limit at the outset.

"Fifty thousand dollars." "I am bid $100,000," was tho triumphant cry. Mr. Reid was tho bidder. "It is the most sporty bid tho world has ever known. It has stopped you all" cried Mr. Eastom. There was dead silence in the vast assemblage. The bids were stopped and the king of stallions was knocked down to Mr.Bcid.

The Local League Sluggers Slop Up the Diamond With the Gyms. There was quite a good crowd at Exposi tion Park yesterday afternoon to seo the last ball game of tho season there. The cranks, for such were the audience-, saw the Gyms fairly pulverized, and doubtless the county champions would Jeav.a .the. field, thoroughly convinced that they are not National League class yet. Their defeat was a bad one. Will Gumbest pitched the first six innings for tho Kast Enders, and Thompson pitched the balance. For three innings G umber t did exceedingly well, not a run being made by his opponents. In the fourth they some what measured him, and his support was bad. The fifth inning came, and he was knocked out of sight almost, llnnlon led off with a single, nnd then Blorbauor and Shu-, gart were retired. Miller came with a single to center, and Steen allowed tho ball to get past him, and both llnnlon nnd Miller scored. Hitting and errors netted four molts runs in the. inning. In the sixth throe more runs wore made, and then Thompson went in to pitch. Thompson was thumped hard, and he gavo seven bases on balls. The Pittsburgers played very well, and Maul was certainly ton much for the Gyms. , Ad Gumbcrt played second for the Gyms, and did tolerably well. He made a Jlno home run. The score: E. E. GYMS.

One Red Leg lias signed for "92, and that one is W. Arlington Latham. All tho players save Count Mullane were at tho Gibson Houso House lat night talking over the situation. When the League lost tho great fight for the establishment of the legality of the rcservo rule the way was Jud'cially pointed out which -would cover the fatal defect. The contracts which Xationnl League players signed this year gave their old clubs legal options on their services for 18D2, provided notice was duly given them on or before the 31st of October, 1S91. Such notice has been served on all the Reds save "the connt."and he avoided the Gibson last night. Heun doubtedly has offers from Association clubs in his pocket. Tne Athletics are after "Bug" Hollid.ty, and Billy Rhines has also been ap proached. The latter is not anxious to get into Association company, and he pressed irrcsHicnt jsrusn to answer one question, viz.: "If I sign with vou is it to nlav in tho League or the Association?" He was assured that it was League, and then he significantly observed: "I want to stay in first-class company." G col-go Smith did not sign, but he said: "My word is as" good as my signature.

Frank Ilcnncmann, of a bad case of catarrh over a year ago, and he stayed cured. Frank is a brass molder by trade, and his work Is especially bad on this disease, and I hadn't much confidence in his gettinc cured. Bnt they cured him. Then I thought maybe it wouldn't last, bnt that is a year ago, and Frank is well to-day." The speaker was Mr. James Hennemann, en gineer, who lives at 135 Liberty street, Alle gheny. "I had been suffering tor six years with a similar disease; always cold in my head anu my nose stoppea tin; pains across the forehead; buzzing and ringing in my cars, and my eyes so weak and rnnning water that I could not read: hoarse ness in mj- throat and a Catherine of phlegm, these accompanied by a disagreeable cough, especially in the morn ing when I got up.

In describing his rnsn h snid- "A dry, hacklnc cough set in. I conld feel the matter constantly dropping back into my throat, which kept me hawking and rais ing to clear it. My throat became raw and sore, so bad at times that I could not speak above a whisper. Sharp pains, like the stab of a knife, wonld take me in the region of the heart and through the chest; night sweats came onandweakencd me terribly; my nights were restless, and I would arise in the mornimrnll worn out., I was always hungry. but feared to eat.? dreading the conse- quences; no matter on my stomach nMr.FrankHennemann, would causo me a miserable feeling of nausea and distress theTe. It grew constantly worse. I had been reading tbe nnmerous statements of patients who had been cured by Dr. Copeland's methods, and resolved, that I would try him." Mr. Hennemann's resolution was carried into effect, with what good results both father and son testify. He improved in tha first few weeks, but, though he felt well, tbe physicians advised him to continuo until every trace of the trouble was eradicated. If he hadstopped treatment then the trouble would, in all probability, have come back; upon him. As it was, he continued follow imr his treatment nntilhewas completely and permanently cured. He concludes his evidence:. "Dr. Coneland has made a new man of me. 1 ' feel as well riow as I ever did.""

A Word of Warning and a "Word of Conn sel Tho Proper Time. Before the winter with Us la grippe and pneumonia comes on, those who are snbject to the catarrhal conditions which excite and provoke those disenses should see to it that every traco of the disease is eradicated. Thoso who suffered last winter from la grippe for tho second or third time were in variably the most serious sufferers. If many of these people had last autumn thoroughly removed from their systems the catarrhal conditions in which the first attack of la grippe left them, much suffering might have, been avoided. It is a pressing duty that devolves on every man, woman and child who has been subject to this disorder to see that the result, the catarrhal condi tion that it leaves, is thoroughly cured, while the conditions of climate are favor able and a cure is possible. Catarrh is often the condition that in the first place invitesand causes LaGrippe. It is the condition La Grippo leaves behind, in viting fresh attacks, making, as it were, a home for itself for next season. This is the proper time to take special treatment for La Grippe and itsnftcr-effects, such as nasal catarrh, bronchitis, incipient consumption and chronic coushs, as the acute inflammatory sj-mDtoms have given away long since to the sub-acuteandchrouio forms.
