COLUMBIA MUST WIN
TO LAND PENNANT
Intercollegiate Basketball Race Is
the Closest in Several
Seasons
Special to The Telegraph
New Tork, Feb. 18. lf Columbia
should win her basketball gam*
against «. omeli at Itliaca to-night she
will have a fairly good mortgage on
the intercollegiate title for this year.
By defeating Princeton on Friday
■night Cornell climbed right up on the
heels i? Columbia, with three games
won and one lost, while Columbia
made it five straight on Thursday
night by beating Pennsylvania with
ease.
Columbia has already beatem Cor
nell, so the game to-night will be the
last between the pair unless thore
should be a tie at the end of the sea
son. Columbia sent in a green team
against the Ithacans on the first game
of the season, and the defeat of the
champions of last year was a great
surprise. Since that time Columbia
has been steadily improving, and when
it plays at Tthaca it will need all that
improvement, for Cornell will be play
ing on her own floor, which is a de
cided advantage. Cornell has not de
veloped as fast as Columbia, so there
is every likelihood of a great contest.
Columbia has won both of the games
with Dartmouth, lias beaten Pennsyl
vania, Princeton and Cornell once,
and has not played against Yale.
Pennsylvania also plays Princeton on
Wednesday, while on Saturday Cornell
will play at Pennsylvania, while Yale
plays at Princeton. The standing of
the teams to date is as follows:

move will not likely go through for
retrenchment so far as it does not af

OLD FOLKS AT COUNTY HOME
HEAR SONGS OF YESTERYEAR
Out at the county almshouse last
evening they had a little' minstrel
show.
The Adams brothers, a local group
of musical artists, some time ago got
Pf>oi Director C. L. Boyer's permission
to entertain the old folks at the home.
The program was observed in the
chapel. There were sixteen of the old
folks there; among them were in
mates who have passed the fourscore
and ten milestone. The entertainers
played cornets, the banjo, the guitar
and violin. Two of the trio sang.
All the popular ragtime was on the
program, the kind that sets even the
foot of ninety-odd years a-tapplng.
Of course, their favorites were sung,
too, '"Suwanee River," "Old Black
Joe." "Comin' Thro' the Rye," "Sally
in Our Alley," and lots of other things
they sang long before father was a
boy.
Just before the final curtain a man
tottering with the weight of nearly 90
years whispered to one of the singers.
The singer nodded, murmured some
thing to the violinist, then smllingly
raised his voice
And then the little group of gray
headed. wistful listeners heard "Silver
Threads Among the Gold."
LADIES! LOOK YOUNG,
DARKEN GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and Sul
phur Recipe and nobody can
tell. Brush it through hair
Gray hair, however handsome, de
notes advancing age. We all know
the advantages of youthful appear
ance. Your hair Is your charm. It
makes or mars the face. When It
fades, turns gray and looks dry,
wispy and scraggly, Just a few ap
plications of Sage Tea and Sulphur
enhances Its appearance a hundred
fold.
Don't stay gray! Look young!
Either prepare the tonic at home or
get from any drug store a 60 cent
bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy." Thousands of folks
recommend this ready-to-use prepa
ration, because It darkens the hair
beautifully and removes dandruff,
stops scalp itching and falling hair;
besides, no one can possibly tell, as It
darkens so naturally and evenly. You
moisten a sponge or soft brush with
it, drawing this through the hair,
taking one small strand at a time.
By morning the gray hair disappears;
after another application or two, its
natural color is restored and it be
comes thick, glossy and lustrous, and
you appear years younger.—Adver- I

"JOSHUA SIMPKINS"
"Joshua Simpkins" will be the attrac

It is said to be a well written pastoral
play, with an interesting plot, the story
being a happy blending of sunshine
and shadow. The situations are said to
be strikingly realistic with an overflow
of fun and amusement. There are sev
eral comedy parts in addition to that of
"Uncle Josh, ' which character is a
whole show In itself. A sensational nov
elty is introduced in the third act in
the shape of a realistic sawmill scene,
in which a monster circular-saw is
used and which Is said to actually saw
through real timber. A fine orchestra
is carried by the company, also a line
band of music, which will make a bur
lesque parade about noon.—Advertise

MRS. FISKE
"Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh," which Mrs.
Fiske is to present at the Majestic
Theater, to-rporrow night. Is the tirst
play-writing effort of Harry James
Smith, who prior to the production of
the play in New York, three years ago,
had for some time been considerably in
the eye of the reading public through
his novels and magazine stories. "Mrs.
Bumpstead-Leigh" is an original play,
worked out by the author in a most en
tertaining manner. He has provided
Mrs. Fiske with a unique role, one
which won many new laurels for her
as developed by her magic touch. It
will doubtless be somewhat of a sur
prise to see Mrs. Fiske in a play and a
role such as "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh,"
since the majority of her plays have
been of a serious trend, while the
Smith comedy would hardly disclose a
serious line if it were searched for with
a microscope. The play is laughter
provoking throughout, with not a
shadow of dramatic gloom anywhere.—

NYMPHS IN THE WOODS
Vaudeville's most pretentious diving
and swimming act is enjoying pros
perity at the Orpheum this week. Earl's
Six Diving Nymphs do clever dives,
that seem to be original with the dlf
l ferent divers. When the curtain rises
on their prettily staged offering, set to
represent a woodland scene, one can
hear and see the waterfalls, and the
songs of birds aro heard. As the lights
gradually grow brighter, one lithe and
graceful form of a girl Is seen, and
then another, until all six of thein are
seen in varied colored diving costumes,
reclining about the cliffs and trees of
the setting. Then the time is supposed
to be dawn, the nymphs are waking
from their sleep, and one by one they
begin to dive into their miniattiro
ocean. It turns into a regular water
carnival and is all action and fun. The
engagement of Earl's Water Nymphs
at the Orpheum is of more than passing
Interest and is delighting capacity au
