ANNUAL HARRIER ii OF QUEEN'S VARSITY, McGILL AND RB. M. C. Skinner of Varsity.

At éleven o'clock the four participating teams lined up at Queen's gymnasi- um and covered a distance of six miles. Half of the distance was covered along the roadway and the other three miles across the coun- try wastes, ploughed fields, ete. McGill appeared to be the strong- est of the teams in that it had two of last year's members upon it while the other teams were compris- ed chiefly of raw material. Manager H. S. Hayes of the Varsity harrier squad, appeared to be quite confid- ent of victory and had little doubt but that his contingent would prove its mastery. 'The various teams thot contested apd their make-up comprised the following: Queen's-- T. McLaughlin, J. Wrong, I. Revelle, W. Johnston, A. Mcintyre and R. Sheldon. R. M.

Copenhagen, Nov. * 14--The kaiser has clipped off the upstanding ends of his moustache. This * startling change in the emperor's appearance was observed the last day or two when the emperor was passing through central Germany on his way to inspect a large number of recruits completing their military training. The loss of the aggressively erect moystache extremities robs Wilhelm IL, very much' of his semi-ferocious martiai appearance, and some per- sons seem to think that stamps upon his face the outlines of a dejected depressipn. When it was observed some time after the beginning - of the war that the kaiser's hair had turned white, no one paid much at-p tention to-the change, but the ret moval of the moustache ends has druck the public imagination and, strange as it may seem, has done more, perhaps, than anything else to convince the population of Berlin that the war outlook is becoming bad for Germany. The absolutely chastened appearance of the kaiser due to the absence of his moustache ends, is attributed to his 3 about the German reverses. circumstances his advisors may 1 kis to allgw his moustache to attain ite former conspicuous dimensions.
