One of the most important football games
1 that has taken place in Pittsburg this sea
son will be that of to-day. The big fellows
from Cleveland will be here and will line
up at Exposition Park against the Three
.A's. The Cleveland team so far this season
have done well and have beaten some very
pood teams. Their rush line is a very heavy
one and-they are extremely vigorous. Of
course they expect to once more defeat the
local lot and they don't hesitate to say that
their eenter, "Whiston, has never been
downed.
Secretary Tatton of the Three As, yester
day afternoon stated that it was foolish for
anybody to think the Three A will not
have their best team on the field to-day.
He said: "In my judgment we will have a
stronger team to-morrow than we have ever
had. Procter, who has often played with
u will be one of our backs, and it is safe
( to say that we will let the Cleveland fel
lows knowthat there is some football play
ing going on, "Ve think we can down the
Clcvelands."
Undoubtedly the following names show
that the local club will have some good
plavers on the field to-day, and the, backs
particularly look very welL The g3me will

THINKS WELL OF HABVABD.
Vincent, of Princeton. Thinks the Tale
Te.-m Will Be Beaten To-Dar
Princeton, Nov. 20. Special Various
opinions are expressed lere regarding the
i outcome of the Yale-Harvard game to-morrow.
The opinion is nearl.' unanimous in
favor of Yale, butsentimeii aDd prejudice
have somewhat influenced opinion. Those
of the students who are betting are offering
and accepting even money on Yale, but
Fnrue bets have been made at 5 to i in favor
of the Blue. Princeton sympathy is strongly
Yalensian. A large number of students
will attend the gam? and all will wear the
Princeton-Yale colors.
Vincent, the great end rusher, is the only
man on the Princeton team who says Har
v.ird will win. "There is too much boast
ins about Yale's great team work and
Yale's great interference. Harvard has a
great team. Her players on the whole
burp&ss Yale's. Of course, the crimson
have no Heflclfinger, hut one man does not
make a whole team. Henelnnger is not so
j:rcat and so pow erful as some think he is.
He only needs a man as strong as himself to
'no him up" and that can be done belore
the season is over. Harvard is going to
play a better team game than most persons
imagine, and some will be surprised to see
liow she will smash Yae's interference. I
"hope Yale will win, but I don't think she
can. Harvard's backs will win the game,
if th- rRh line will do their share in block
ing, tackling and interfering."
QUITE ENTHUSIASTIC
The nrard Team Leaves for Springfield
to Trickle the Yale Players.
Boston, Xov 20. .fecial The Harv
ard football eleve-i started for Springfield
on the 4 o'clock express this afternoon. A
parlor car was reserved for them and the
Harvard Glee Clnb chartered another car.
Ihe players received a tremendous send off
at Cambridge, several hundred students
cheering them.;-! to victory. The betting
ha born very light. AViat sutis have been
posted nr" at precisely the same odds that
resulted or. the day before the match last
year. A few bets.are being made at odds
of .1 to 4 ou Yale This was the figure last
3 ear and Harvard won. In fact bets are
seldom to 1k relied on as a criterion for the
accurate prediction of the result of a college
jgame.
A trip around town to the places where
men are wont to consreeate who back their
(.pinion with cash failed to disclose any ex
tensive betting. Professional betting "men
arclighfmc shy. Tcey do not know how
much stock to take "in the reports of the
weakness that have emanated from Xcw
Haven and CamLridge. Still they favor
' Yale and the odds are about as quoted
aboic. In Cambridge no larje amounts
jiave been wacered vet. A good many of
the Harvard men who are prepared to back
ihe crimson are waiting till they get to
Jpringfii Id and they expect to find Yale
willing to give odds. '
TEE EAST END GAME.

between the University and Geneva College

couraging cheers from their respective rep
resentations. Both say they ar sure winners, and will
have th-ir strongest teams on the field and
the playing will be to win the contest, and

SETTLED THEIB TBOUELE.
The Association Football Players Meet and
Rovoko Some Bad Decisions.
The trouble in the "Western Football
League was somewhat smoothed down at a
meeting of the League last evening. All
the clubs were represented except McDon
ald, The Bloomfield clnb withdrew the pro
test which was sustained against Pittsburg
at a previous meeting, and the delegates
last evening were in favor of invalidating
the McDonald protest against Pittsburg,
which was also sustained at the previous
meeting. Mr. Horn, the President, how
ever, advised that no action be taken on
the matter until the McDonald representa
tives were present.
Tt was also decided that' in iuture each
club making a protest shall deposit ?", and
if the protest is not sustained, the money to
be torleited.
The games will be resumed to-day. Xew
Catle will plav Bloomfield at Kecrcation
Park, and the MeKeesports will play the
McDonalds at McDonald. The Pittsburg
team will go to Homestead and oppose the
team there.
The Pittsburg players chosen to play

THEIB SECOND GAME.
The University of Pennsylvania and Lehigh
Tennis to line Cp To-Day.
Philadelphia. Nov. 20. Special.
The second game between the University of
Pennsylvania and Lehigh football teams
will be played at Thirty-seventh and Spruce
to-morrow afternoon. The last game be
tween these two teams resulted in a walk
'over by Pennsylvania by a score of 42 to 0.
But the game to-morrow will be closer, as
Pennsylvania only defeated Lafayette by
12 to 10. and Lehigh defeated the latter in a
close game lately.
There is not mnch doubt as to the out
come, however. End rnsh Heisman is still
unable to play and it is very doubtful if he
will be in condition for the Wesleyan game
"Wednesday. That game will be played in
New York, notwithstanding all reports to
the contrary.
AN IHFOBTANT EES0LUTI0N.
The Directors of the Local Ball Clnb to Be
Bednced to rive.
Notice has been given ot an important
resolution that will be submitted to the
stockholders of the local ball clnb at their
annual meeting. The resolution is to the
effect that the number of directors be
reduced from seven to fiv3. It is very
likely that the resolution wili be adopted.
The question as to who th3 directors will
be becomes an interesting one under the
circumstanc2s. Mr. O'Neil is out and some
people think that Mr. Scandrett will be re
tained as secretary without a seat on the
board. One thing is sure, viz, that the di
rectors cannot afford to leave a well in
formed man like Mr. Scandrett out of their
deliberations. It is also thought that Mr.
Temple will want to be on the board
and if hcispnt there thenMr.Auten may be
left out. At present there is no certainty
as to who-the five directors will be.

SPOOKS AT THE SINK.
Unearthly Sounds and Sights in a
Bouse at Binghainton.
WATER TURNED ON IN.THE NIGHT
B yUnscen Hands, and No Sign of Moisture
Remains Thereafter.
SEQUEL TO 1 WOMAN'S FEARFUL DEATH
(SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCIM
Bixguamton-, X. Y., Xov. 20. Spooks
are said to hold nightly revels upon the
scenes of two tragedies recently enacted in
this vicinity. One place where these
ghostly manifestations are said to take place
is upon the premises at West Colesville,
v hero Farmer Foote was so foully mur
dered. The performances, as described by
those who cim to have witnessed them,
are said to be of the most hair-lifting
description, but the stories are hard to
verify, owing to the .distance and the dif
ficulty of reaching the scene.
The second place, however, is in this city.
Several months ago Mrs. H. S. Rumme was
burned to death in her bed by the explosion
of a lamp which set fire to her couch. The
house was renovated, new paint and fresh
paper obliterating all traces of the fire.
Before the repairs were completed
the mysterious performances which are laid
to the agency of spooks, began and have
been kept up since at irregular intervals.
Some of the Strange Things Heard.
One night the family, -who occupy the
second story, distinctly heard the water at
the sink turqed on with full force, as
though some one was waiting to let the
water cool before drinking. "When it was
turned off, footsteps could be heard walking
away from the sink, the noise being fol
lowed by the banging of a door. Thinking
some stranger had entered the rooms which,
were not occupied, the upstairs tenant
hurried down and made an investigation.
The rooms were deserted, and every door
and window was fastened.
Somewhat puzzled, the gentleman ap
proached the sink. It was dry and appar
ently had not contained a drop of water for
days. He stood irresolute a moment, be
lieving he was deceived. Scarcely had he
turned away when" the faucet was again
turned on. The sound of the running
water was unmistakable this time, but not
a sign of moisture appeared in the sink.
While he waited his cheek was fanned by a
breath of air, as though someone had
brushed bv him. The bedroom door where
the tragedy occurred was opened by invisi
ble hands and closed with a bang, followed
by a pea1 of moeking laughtc'from within
the room that made him shiver.
Peculiar Manifestations Continued.
These manifestations were renewed when
the rooms became occupied. Several nights
aco the occupants of the room were aroused
b3 the noise of some one thumbing the
leaves of a book. The prescribe of a strange
person in the room was apparent, but no
one could be seen. Suddenly the slanting
ray of the moon coming through the shut
ters fell upon the misty outlines of a figure
kneeling at the bed as if in prayer. The
moon disappeared behind a cloud," and with
it the faintly outlined figure.
Then came the noise of running water,
followed by sounds of subdued voices, as if
engaged in angry dispute. This was fol
loncd by the sounds of a struggle. The
living occupants of the room, strangely
enough, experienced no fear.
The atmosphere during these disturb
ances was reduced to a frigid temperature.
In the morning the furniture of the house
was entirely disarranged. This perform
ance'bas been repeated several times. The
voices are always raised to a certain pitch,
and can be heard with equal distinctness
from any part of the house, although words
cannot be distinguished. The strange af
fair is creating noend of talk.
THE HIGH PEESSUflE CTJEEEHT.
Weird and Beautiful Effects With Torty
XIvo Thousand Volts.
Although within the last two years the
transmission of electric current at 10,000
was regarded by many as impracticable, in
experiments with high tensibn currents just
carried out at the Frankfort Exhibition,
the enormous pressure of 45,000 volts was
reached. This achievement is not only re
markable from the degree to which it sur
passes all previous demonstrations of the
kind, but, according to the description of
an electrical expert who was present, it was
attended by effects of light of exceptional
brilliancy. Upon a table there was fixed
an electrode, some three inches in diameter,
connected to one terminal of a transformer.
Over it there was mounted a large sheet of
glass three millimeters thick, and above the
glass there was a second electrode termi
nating in a sharp point, the distance be
tween the electrodes being three centi
meters. "When the current was turned on
to the primary coil of the transformer there
first appeared a purple haze at the upper
electrode, streaming towards the glass. As
the enrrent increased this haze grew'
in fulness and definition, and began to throw
out feelers, which darted outward and as
quickly withdrew. As the pressure of the
current was increased these feelprs gathered
power until they beat themselves violently
on the glass, as if they would force them
selves through it in their mad desire to
reach the other electrode. The whole space
below the pointed conductor became alive
with them, and exhibited a mass of leaping,
crackling threads of purple fire, which
writhed and twisted in impotent 'attempts
to burst through the barrier, and failing
that, spread themselves along Its surface
endeavoring to rush over its edges, and so
reach their goal by a circnitous route.
This was beyond their strength until the
pressure approached 45,000 volts, when sud
denly the entire appearance was changed.
The current overleaped the edges of theplate
and flowed completely around it in all
directions. At that moment the intense
purple color of the spark disappeared, and
was replaced by white light of the greatest
brilliancy, which surged and scintillated in
a way that produced acute fatigue of the
eyes in an extraordinary short time. Al
though steadier than before, the discharge
still kept up its spark-like character, in
folding the glass plate in gleaming corns
cations, which glistened and flashed until
the spectators were fain to turn away their
bedazzled gaze.

TBANSF EYEING A BIKTHDAY.
The Interesting Document by Which
Robert Louis Stevenson Gave His Away.
Youth's Companion.
This is an age of ingenious contrivance,
yet it has remained for Mr. Eobert I.ouis
Stevenson to surpass his contemporaries in
original invention. Only his astonishingly
fertile mind could probably have hit upon
the project of transferring a birthday from
one person to another. He has decided
upon the sacrifice of his own natal day, and
solemnly sets forth his intentions in writ
ing. The document, ruthlessly shortened,
runs thus:
I, Bobert Louis Stevenson, advocate of the
Scots bar, author of the "Master of Ballan
trae." etc., being in sound mind and pretty
well, I thank you, in body:
Iu consideration that Miss A. II. Ide, in
the town of St. Johnsbury, Vermont, U. S.
A., was born out of all reason upon Christ
mas Dsj-, and Is therefore denied the con
solation and profit of a proner birthday:
And. considering that I. Robert Louis
Stevenson, have attained an age when. Ob,
we never mention it, and that I have no
further uo for a birthday or any descrip
tion; Have transferred and do hereby transfer
to the said A. H. Ide all and whole my lights
and privileges in the thirteenth day of
November", formerly my birthday, now
hereby and henceforth tho birthday of tho
said A. 11. Ide, to nave, noia, exercise ami
enjoy the same in the customary manner,
by the sporting of flno raiment, eating of
rich meat, and leceipts of gifts, compli
ments and copies of veise according to the
manner of our ancestors:
And I direct the said A. H. Ide to add to
the name of A. H. Ide the name Louisa at
least in private; and I charge her to use my
said birthday with moderation and human
ity, the said birthday not betnz so yonns as
it once was, and havinir earned me in a very
satisfactory manner ever since 1 can remem
ber. And in case the said A. H. Ide shall ne
glect or contravene either ot tho above con
ditions, I hereby revoke the donation and
transfer my rizhts in tho said birthday to
the President of the United States of Amer
ica. Spronl Will Bo Receiver at Cony.
Corry, PA, Xov. 20. Special. Mr. J.
W. Spronl, of Union City, will be ap
pointed receiver of the defunct Corry Xa
tional Bank to-morrow. The appointment
will give general satisfaction to the deposi
tors. An effort will be made to prevail
upon Mr. Spronl to so arrange matters, if
possible, as to make the first dividend at as
early a day as the condition of the bank will
allow.
