Waverly Beats Cook Waverly— The foot ball team which represents the \Waverly high {tour Falls and in a clear and clever academy team, the score at the end of the second half standing 17 to 0 Owing to a question raised by the Cook young men, an 85 yard run, made by “Pete” VanOstran, was not counted, or the score had been 23to 0 By his decision in this point of the game referee Rollin Perry of Waverly prevented any chance for argument and took a commendable and emphatic step in the nght way toward putting local athletics in a good light. The game which consisted of two twenty minute halves was fast, fierce and furious from start to fin- ish and the locals won by actual superiority in the fine points of the game. The ball was forced by inches up the ficld, time after time, Warren Reagan and Dougherty securing touchdowns, and Warren and Hogan kicking goals. This makes the third consecu- tive victory for the lads, who are being coached by Dr. Theo. Snook and “Roll” Perry, and the team has yet two open dates, for which they desire to arrange games. An effort is being made to schedule a game for next Saturday afternoon on Howard street grounds. The line up of the WHS team follows Centre— McHale, R. G.—Kir- win; R. T.—Raub; R.

ROAD LINKED WITH HISTORY Origin of the Natchez Trace, Famous Highway of the South- west. One of the oldest roads in the coun: try is the Natchez Trace, of which John Swain In Everybody's Magazine writes as follows: “A hundred years ago the eyes of America were on the southwest. We were on the edge of a war with Spain over the closing of the Mississippi; and under orders from Washington, Wilkinson, in command of Fort Adams, held some solemn conclave with the Indians who owned the east bank of the big river, and by trealy established a sacred postroad through their country. It left Nashville In the old Buffalo trace, crossed the Tennes- see at Colbert's ferry below the Mus: sel shoals, and striking the hills back of the Big Black, came down to Natchez and on to New Orleans, with a branch to the Walnut hills. The road was more than a military neces- sity, for so many pirates infested the Mississippl that merchants returning from New Orleans needed a safer route home with their money. “After it was opened it became all things In the’ southwest. Methodism went down that way in the person of Thomas Gibson; later, Lorenzo Dow followed him with the camp-meeting spirit. Old Hickory marched his army down to Natchez over this route in 1513, and marched it back again next spring. And from that day till nearly our own it has been the great center of that country's activity. Now the railroads have come, the settlers have moyed down into the valleys, and opened up poorer roads in the beds of branches and through swampy low. lands. But the trace is still there up on its ridges, the best road of them +3 ID PCRNIaR 1.00 WANT ADS Rates : —Wanted, Lost, Found, Pot For | Sale, ete., § cent a word each insertion fo 26st tive tines, § cent a word sash insertion thereafter.
