ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD. W. Adams is captain of Harvard’s fresh- man eleven this year. Knipe of Pennsylvania has been coach- ing the L'nion college eleven. Poe, the little Princeton quarter back, tips the beam at only 135 pounds. Harvard is trying more of Deland’s sci- entific tricks this year but the were" eas for Princeton. ’ y y Captain Langdon Lea of Princeton is said to be out of the game for the year on account of injuries. Canceling the Pennsylvania-Boston A. C. game in J.\8W York will cost Pennsyl- vania just $2,892.94. Norton Shaw, who played right guard for Harvard last year, has met with an in- Jury which will prevent his playing this year. Philip Draper, the Williams college full back, has been running 100 yards in 10% seconds with very little practice and is be- lieved to have the material that is neces- sary to make a fine sprinter. BOUNCER IS A WONDER. Her Campaign This Year Has Never Been Equaled by a Four-year-old Trotter. The Horseman believes that the great 4-year-old trotting mare Bouncer, 230%, is the greatest campaigner of her age that ever lived. She is a racy looking mare, with clean cut, bony head and an excep- tionally fine set of legs. She is a light bay, stands 16 hands high and is noticeable for her strong shoulders and quarters and her unusual depth through the heart. She is good headed, beautifully gaitcd and shows “race” in every line and movement. Bo- ing slow to get into her stride, she cannot score down as fast as most of the 2 :15 trot- ters. Her strong point is her finishing capac- ity, in which few trottcrs ever on the turf can compare with her, and in no instance this year has she failed to win the heat BOUNCER, 2:10}:{. when she was within two lengths of the leader at the three-quarter pole, except in one heat at Detroit, where she made a break nearing the wire. She has made but two breaks in her races this season. Bouncer was bred by her present owner, William Simpson of Cuba, N. Y. Her sire, Hummer, a son of Electioneer, out of Edith Wilkes, by George Wilkes, gran- dam Edith Carr (dam of Campbell’s Elec- tioneer, 2:17%, and Rockefeller), by Clark Chief, was bought when a youngster by Mr. Simpson, and her dam, Musette, by Mambrino Patchen, out of Ida, by Ver- mont, was a member of Mr. Simpson’s band of brood mares until she died last spring. Bouncer's greatest victory was in the Transylvania stake, Lexington, Ky., and her total winnings amount to $8,170. 0f the eight races won by her two were four heat contests, two required five heats to settle and one was the famous eight heat contest at Detroit. . How to Make Bouillon. To make a good bouillon, or beef tea, put a pint of cold water to each pound of beef. Cut the beef in at least pound pieces and set the vessel on the back of the stove to simmer for at least three hours. Then set it over a hot fire, to cook fast for half an hour. Strain it and set it away to cool and settle. When cold, pour ofl into a clean, bright vessel the game expeCI‘ed I and put in it the beaten white and shell of an egg, a small onion and little pieces of carrot and turnip, with a teaspoonful of burnt sugar. Stir, settle and strain again. When ready to serve, heat and salt it well. It takes a good deal of salt. now to Toughen Glass. Plunge the glass, heated to the melt- ing point, into a bath containmg an oleaginous mixture at a high tempera- ture, but considerably cooler than the glass itself. This is effected by reheat- ing already manufactured and annealed glass in a kiln and passing It thence into the bath. ___â€"_â€".â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"-â€"â€"‘â€" How to Make Sponge Cake. Ten eggs, three-quarters of a. pound of sugar, half a pound of flour, mud and juice of a lemon. Grate rind and squeeze juice of lemon on sugar, add the yolks of 10 eggs (keep whites separate); beat until it. is a thick cream, then add the well beaten whites, mix thoroughly and sieve in slowly the half pound of flour. Do not beat this in. for if you do your cake will be tough, but stir carefully until it is all mixed. Bake In a moderate oven. __________.______.. now to Remove Rosin or In. To remove rosin, tar, axle grease or similar stains wet the cloth, apply fat -. or any common oil tothe stain and ther- oughly soap it; allow the soap to remam for a short time; then wash alternately with turpentine and warm water. If this will not remove the stain. cover with a mixture of oil of turpentine and ,the white of egg and ,let it stand for some time until it’ softens up. Then wash with but soon water and rinse. MILLINERY NOTES The Season’s Headgearâ€"Velvet Flowers and Metal Eflects. Felt hats are very much worn, and not only hats, but bonnets and toques. Felt is certame the most serviceable of materials for ordinary wear in the winter and in the fine qualities is very attractive. Its flexi- bility is also a great recommendation, especially for large shapes, where individu- ality may be given by twisting and turn- ing the brim. The edge of some of the new felt hate is finished with a row of 'oblique felt loops, which form a sort of I rounded border becoming to the face. Neutral tints are much favored, browns, beige, beaver, dead leaf and mastic tones being in great vogue. Black felts with a VELVET TOQUE. crown of colored velvet are also seen and no usuallytrimmed With 05‘31'1011 feathers. Bronchitis and all throat and lung Mal- Black ooq feathers with green- reflec- tions are used for millinery purposes this winter, while a jet on '5 head with topaz eyes is considered adcsirable ornament for the hat in Paris. Pompadour, plaid and striped ribbons are fashionable trimmings, and taffeta ribbon is decidedly liked as a change from the richer and heavier varieties. Velvet flowers without foliage and innumerable ornaments of jet and paste are seen among the millinery novelties. Metal ofi'ects are combined with bright colors to a bewilder- ing extent, some of the newest models for evening bonnet-s consisting of a small shape made entirely of gold, trimmed with a profusion of velvet flowers, some of which are arranged to fall upon the hair at the back. For children there are pretty felt shapes in all colors and gay plaid ribbons of taf- feta with which to trim them. A neat lit- tle frock of soft, bright tartan and a dark felt sailor hat trimmed with ribbon to match form an ideal costume for a little girl to wear to school or at play, as it is fashionable, inexpensive and serviceable. A sketch is given of a small hat, or toque, of ruby velvet draped and twisted. The front is adorned with choux of bright satin, while on the left side are a cluster of black ostrich plumes and two large jet pins. J umc CHOLLET. DAY AND EVENING GOWNS. Large Hats and Ribbon Bowsâ€"Flowered Tam For Evening Gowns. Cloth gowns show great fancifulness this season. Suede, brown or mauve cloth costumes have the front of the skirt of white cloth, this tablier being secured on each side by a row of small silver but- tons. Pointed as well as belted bodices ap- pear, with vest and jacket effects of vari- ous kinds. There are some small, pointed basques seen which form large hollow plaits behind, something on the postilion order. knots and bows of the Louis Quinze and Louis Seize order are used for trimming, while the long and short flcbus also worn add to the eighteenth century eflect of many of the present fashions. Flowered or striped taffetas in light tints form some of the prettiest ball and evening gowns. Plain and broche satin, faille and satin in alternate stripes, changeable peau de sole and damaskâ€"in fact, all silken goodsâ€"are employed in the EVENING GOWK. some way. There are charming embroid- ared modeselines do 6010, and the same sheer material is openworked, and Crepe de chine is another evening fabric shown in great variety, plain, changeable, flowered, embroidered anurosecnangeabie camera with a strlpa , and flOWered pattern. This skirt is open at the side over a quille of green silk on which are placed three choux of violet satin. The full bodice is of plain green tafleta and has asquare decolletage framed byafiohu of white gauze edged with a . trill of white lace. The fichu is fastened | with choux of violet satin, and the short, full sleeves are draped with similarchoux. Junie Cnom'r. Separate the Sexes. The importance for the early separa- tion of the sexes in the growing broods, admitted so freely, is not practiced as it should be. Hardly a farm home can be seen but the chicks are all running to- gether, eating out of one common trough and being fed with the thought of put- ting the cockerels in the best possible shape for market. The result can only be injury to the pullets. Looking over into a large yard where nearly 300 were running together, we could but notice how generous was the feeding by the owner and how plump the pullets were. Strange it is that we cannot realize that the currents are set at an early age and habits formed not easily broken. The dollars in early winter come from the pallets having the widest range today, not from those running with the cock- erels.â€"Maine Farmer. â€"â€"â€"o-â€"â€"- To Consumptives.
