SETTLING REFORM CODE
FOR COLLEGE FOOTBALL
Special to The Light.
New York. March 30. —The Ameri-
can intercollegiate Football Riles
committee is holding another session
at the Murry Hill hotel today and Ills
is believed to be the final meeting in
which the new foothall code will be
finally adopted. The work was prac-
tically completed after the last meet-
ing. but it was necessary for the rep-
resentatives of the various universi-
ties taking part in the deliberations
to report to their institutions before
a definite and settlement could
be reached. The task of the com-
mittee today mainly consists in going
over the whole ground taking up sec-
tion after section and to pass se|>-
arately upon each individual rule. It
is not expected that any further
changes w ill be made at today's meet-
ing.

MOBILIZATION OF
IL S. TROOPS
Special to The Light.
Plattsburg N. Y. March 30.—The
army headquarters have already taken
up the question of the transportation
of all the cavalry field aittllcry and
infantry in thia country for mobiliza-
tion at seven camps In different parts
of the country. Including Plattsburg
barracks. It will require a vast amount
of preliminary work to get everything
In readiness for the transfer of the
troops although it Is intended by the
president to have the operations and
the encampment conducted as in war
time when there will be the least |s»s-
slble dependence U]>on the railroad or
other accommodations.
For the most jaart the troops as-
signed to the camps will march to
their destination. The greatest dis-
lance covered by the troops ordered
t<> Plattsburg will be from Washing-
ton. A part of the Washington garri-
son probably two companies of engi-
n< ers with their appliances will
march to the Plattsburg camp. Great
interest throughout the service is
taken in the President's plan fora gen-
• tai concentration of the troops. It
is the first gathering of the sort ever
held in this country on such a scale
and it is to be oil owed by monthly
encampments of two nights each after
the troops return to their’ respective
stations continuing through next win-
ler.
The troops will carry their full Jilts
with them on their summer tour and
will adopt the system of tegular field
provisioning. To this end the com-
missory officers arc preparing to Is-
sue the necessary equipment for the
cooking of the food. At the barracks
here there will be about fifty compa-
nies in addition to the regular garri-
son.

Kaiserslautern March 30. —A trial
for witchcraft which just came to a
conclusion In the Upper Palatinate ll-
!u»:tn>tcs the depths of ignorance and
f superstition in which large districts
of southern Germany are still sunk. A
farm laborer named Hirmer was vm
ployed by a won an named Koelbl to
look after her horse. Hirmer how-
-1 ever neglected his duties the hoj.se
। became sick and to excuse
Hirmer asserted that the animal bad
been ben Itcl.ed. Every nioinin; ho
found it bathed in sweat and with its
। inane and tail plaited by unearthly
hands. He advised Fray Koelbl to
1 s< cu/c the services of a neigl lan lug
| witch doctor a certain Hartwig. At
I dead ol night Hartwig entered me
I stable fixed a crucifix with two burn-
- Ine candles at the horse's head wrote
I some mysterious letters on the wall
| with "consecrated chalk” drew a
magic circle am tud himself opened
his book and began incantations in
some unknown jargon. He shivered
with the ’ lolence of his emotions and
after three quarters of tn hour te-
vcaled that the witch who had "pos-
sessed" the horse was a certain Frau
Stboumbercer. At the trial the judge
I at first was not inclined to convict
Hartwig as he regarded the witch
1 doctor as perfectly sincere but on re-
; flection .te 'ondemned him tn four
weeks imprisonment as an imposter.

1 There is a difference of expert opin- I
1 ion iu regard to the proposed abon-
j dontnent 01 the naval coaling station !
at Dry Tortugas. Rear Admiral R. B.
Bradford who is responsible for the
establishment if the station there is
anxious il.at the transfer of the place
from the navy departen.nt to the
treasury department shall be opposed
while tl>e gaval general board has
urged that the plant at Dry Tortugas
be taken to Guantanamo. Secretary
Bonanarte has advised the houy
naval cot-nnittee that more than a mu-
: lion dollars has been expended on Dry
Tortugas. and that it costs #BOOO a
year to maintain tne plant. Some of
; the naval of terra who have advised
I Secretary- Bonaparte in the matter
| have pointed out that the place has
। now lost Its strategic value and would
be difflc.ilt to defend should an enemy
seek to make an attack upon the coal
pile in time of war. The naval gen-
mi lioard is practically committed io
a 0011-y which insists unon the fortiti-
cation of coaling stations as well as
the arming of the colliers. Mr. Bona-
parte has advised congress that the
treasury department should reimburse
the navy dcoartnieut for some of the
expenses Incurred in establishing the
coaling st al ion at Dry- Tortugas. al-
though. of course only a sniaP frac-
tion of the original oxyicnse of es-
tablishment can be exacted probably
not more than $200000.

dame tossing the pasteboard out of
the window and her head (with a
string attached) toward the reporter.
"Jean jetez-le par la fenetre pour-

For a worthy cause and to com-
memorate the memory of the late
Ludwig Mahncke a movement has
bren Stalled in the city Io raise
enough money with which to erect a
handsome monument to the late park
commissioner. The fund w’as started
with a donation by Colonel George W.
Brackenridge and several $lOO sub-
scriptions. It is expected that within
a short time the sum of $5OOO or $lO.-
000 could be raised for this purpose
and the statue or monument be erect-
ed in the Mahncke park ou River

that the River avenue front be en-
closed with a pretty iron fence to
properly set it off. Contributions for
the monument will be received at all
hanks ami the amounts subscribed
will be made public from time to time.

Never has there been astage spec-

the Imagination of those who have
been told about it. that it simply over-
whelms. There is no other amuse
ment place in the world so big no
stage that is one-half the size and
nowhere else is it possible to gain
such effects. When the great build-
ing was opened with "A Yankee Circus

was a sensation; it was supimsed that
the performance could not be sur|>ass-
ed. so gorgeous was it as a siioetacle
so exquisite was the "Ballet of the

Frederic Thompson who looks like
a sapfroinore in college instead of the
king of showmen and whose genius

makes its predecessor seem almost
amateurish in comparison. One of the
ablest word painters In New York
frankly admitted that he knew of no
adjectives to do justice to "A Society
Circus' and so he coined one—"hip-
podromlc"—but that has significance
only to those who have seen the per-
formance—" The Plavers" in Every-
