An almost devilish Ingenuity is ex-hibited by the men who make testsamong roundsmen and patrolmen forpromotion. One of the most diaboli-cal schemes to disqualify fat andpudgy policemen is \u25a0 called the "pea-nut test." The competitors for promo-tion are obliged to run past a smallpeanut stand and grab' a handful Intheir flight. The man who shows thelargest number of peanuts gets thehighest mark. At a recent test climb-ing a rope hand over hand was one ofthe stunts. Another .extremely inter- iestlng feature was called "cheese It,'the sarge." AH the men took part inthis and the results were very close.The men worked in relays here. Fiftyiroundsmen were placed In comfortablepositions about, the room, most ofthem reclining and feigning sleep. Atrolley car going at one end of theroom was suddenly rung announcingthe coming of a sergeant. The winner ,of this contest had strapped on his
'belt, placed his helmet on his head andbegun his patrol in four seconds; theloser did the same thing in six, whichgives a fair idea of the closeness ofthe contest. and the skill of the mentaking part in It.

A.whisper maybe heard a block in this quarter afternightfall,and at midnight there Is nospot on the western plains half solonely and deserted. Roof restaurantsIn the financial district are becomingpopular for the same reason. ThereIs an air of quiet about these places200 feet above the street level whichattracts the man who has been Inthehum of the street all morning. Therewill be a downtown Waldorf or St.Regis one of these days, and It, willhave no sleeping rooms below thetenth floor.

It was 3:27 o'clock when the presi-dent's party boarded the special train,but owing to the heavy travel the spe-cial did nnt leave here until 6:IC.
After the president left the footballfield, he entered the club house of thePrinceton Athletic association, wherehe remained about twenty minutes.
Secretary Taft, Assistant SecretaryNewberry, Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., MissEthel Roosevelt and other members ofthe party on the president's special hadluncheon on the train.
Four mounted guards surrounded thecarriage in which were the presidentand Mrs. Roosevelt, Secretary .Root andDr. Wilson. In the carriages followingwere Mr. and Mrs. Cowles and Secre-tary Loeb. The party remained atPresident Wilson's home until 2 p. m.
President Roosevelt's day in Prince-ton was a very enjoyable, one. Fromthe moment he stepped from his trainuntil he departed for the capital he wascheered by the football spectators..
The president's train arrived at thelittle Princeton station at 12:22 p. m.and was greeted by 2000 persons whohad assembled on the edge of thecampus.
The president and Mrs.. Rooseveltwere welcomed by President WoodrowWilson, and after the greetings . theparty entered currlajres and started forthe home of Dr. Wilson. •.>.'<
The president was apparently grati-fied with the hearty reception. Fromthe time he entered the grounds at thesouthwest corner of Osborne field untilhe reached the box In the navy's sec-tion the cheering was continuous andhe received a similar greeting as hecrossed to the east stand. • '
President Gratified
They thew their caps, flaps and any-thing that they could grasp that wasmovable Into the air. They did notcease their Jubilation until the result ofthe conference between captains, refereeand umpire announced the conclusionof the game.
The game had been called fourminutes before time was up, a mostunusual occurrence, but the fast gath-ering darkness made this necessary.
During the excitement Incidental tothe navy's touchdown, the president,who had kept his eyes riveted on thegame from the beginning, left his seatIn the army stand, accompanied byPresident Woodrow Wilson of Prince-ton, secret service men, Secretary Loeband ahalf doaen policemen, and walkedbriskly from the grounds.
Howard sent a beautiful punt backof the West Point goal. As the navyeleven started down the field an armyman was detected by Umpire Wrennholding one of the navy.
As a penalty the ball was broughtback and given to the navy on thearmy's thirty-yard Mne. In a last des-perate effort, the Annapolis boys
placed the ball on West Point's fifteenyard line.
They lost It,but the army was forcedto kick again. The navy got the ballon the army's 40-yard line and carriedit back twenty yards. Here theykicked and Johnson, fumbled. An.Annapolis boy was on the pigskin ina flash.
Substitutes Sent In /.',_• .-.;.,,/: At this point Dousrlas was sent in atleft halfback and Smith at full backfor Annapolis. The change had abracing effect on the navy eleven.
With renewed fierceness and a de-termination that would not be denied,they carried the ball over for a touch-down. Norton, who had replacedDecker, kicked the goal. It was •sodark that only the players and thereferee could Bee where the ball hadgone between the posts. When theAnnapolis boys were assured that thescore had been tied, their enthusiasmwas unbounded.
A West Point player was respon-sible fqr the tie game. On an ex-change of kicks within ten minutes ofthe close of the game, the navy hadthe ball near midfleld.
The easterly wind carried the ballback toward the navy goal, so that Indistance It had not traveled more thanfive yards.
From this point the West Pointerscarried the ball over for a touchdown,Weeks, Smith, Hill,Christie and Tor-ney carrying the ball.
Near the close of the first half thearmy got the hall on the navy's thir-ty-flvc yard line on an exchange ofkicks. Howard, who kicked brilliantlyfor Annapolis, sent a spiral high inthe air. >••
Wind Aids In Score
Only the Bllppery condition of thefield prevented Decker from doingsome remarkable work. He fre-quently got beyond the line, but ashe turned to circle the end, the treach-erous turf played an Important partfor the army and Decker was pouncedupon before he could get a foothold.
Once Torney got away for a prettyrun of thlrty-Blx yards which broughtthe army supporters to their feet andDecker, on one occasion, electrifiedthe navy rooters by almost gettingaway from the army eleven.
Seated In the east and west standswere the genuine football enthusiasts.Every play mnrtn by their respectiveteams was eagerly watched. Therewere uproarious cheers for the quickdashing runs and sighs for the at-tempts which failed. But the dashingruns were few.
Twenty-five thousand persons wit-nessed the game. From all sectionsof the United States came spectatorswho ordinarily would not travel ascore of miles to see a football con-test. All this was doubtless broughtabout by the fact that PresidentHoosevelt was to be present.

Coach Homes for . some reason orother experienced a Hudden change ofmind as regarded placing a secondcloven on the field and the 'varsityteam went out to battle against theVlncentlans.
Tho game terminated with tho bestof feeling manifested on either sldoafter ii. grillingcontest in which bothelevens seemed wrought to a nervoustension over tho rumors of lntendudfoul tactics.
Over anxious to an extreme, the menof cither team were constantly off side,though the officials for the most part
overlooked the errors. Severe penaltiesw-ero meted out to the Rt. Vincent menfor using their hands when running in-terference, and, coming after tho long-est dashes of tho (lay, lost the Saintsyards of hard earned territory.
Mainly a lino plunging exhibition,players of either team in several In-stances found their way past the op-posing ends for a swing to the sidelines, where they went down under thellercest tackling witnessed this year.
Determined not to give way withouta struggle to the last, both teamsfought for all that was in them, andevery inch of-ground was bitterly con-tested before the \u25a0 whistle sounded attho end. :
First HalfTho first half waxed evenly, but in
the second half St. Vincent had the'IT.'S. C. men on the defensive till the'close* Thq right wing of the University
was the mont pregnable spot In the line,
and the greatest gains of the S. V. C.
men vero netted by plunges in that
direction. The U. S. C. men also madetheir best gains through the forwards,though they were unablo. to menacetho St. Vincent goal. . *
Knd runs were not to the fore anawhen the out-riggers were circled toogreat a distance across field had be<-n
covered for a warranting of much gain.
In the early part of the game the
•varsity men got away wUhthelr playsinfaster style and ran the St. Vincentsan even race for what advantage ex-isted but' ln tho latter portion wereo'ontent to wage a desperate defensenear their own goal line.
Wllholt outpunted Cass and his foot
work aided the Saints in threatening
the varßlty goal. The closest approachto a touchdown came in the last half,
when, with the ball nine anoVa halfyards from the U. S..C. line St. Yin-Jent's failed to make the yard needed?or the third down and the ball wentover. Afew moments before the leatherhad gone to U. S. C. on the "-yardline nfter the St. Vincent men hartwasted considerable time in disputingthe play to be made. .
The university team was unable to domuch with the St. Vincent line In the
way of advancement, but at criticalmoments, with the ball Inthe shadowof their goal posts, held and punted out°
Ochoa, whose defensive work hasbeen the mainstay of the university
team called off the field before the endof the second half, for the pace wasswift and the fullback had thrown him-self into every play.
Wilhoit and Stuart of the St. Vincenttaam played the strongest kind of bail
throughout the game, repeatedly break-ing up the opposing formations forloMsesi. ..
Stuart was opposed to one of the
heftiest rushes in the south and morethan held his own in yesterday's game."Wllholt's punting netted the St. Vin-cent men an average of forty yards apunt, which,-followed by the Vincentianline-gaining ability, kept the ball inuniversity territory during the majorportion of the game.
KUlott of U.S. 0., with Campbell andOrlndle of St. Vincent's, were down thefield in fust style under the kicks andrun backs of either team, as a rule,
netted very little ground.The prettiest play of the day came
oft In the last half, when M. McDonald,who had taken Seeley'3 place at quar-ter, received Cubs' punt while coming
in fast from where he had been playingback, evading the university tacklersfor twelve yards.
Jnek White and Hlagler, the varsitybacks, -did most of- the ground gainingfor U. S. Cii Halgler runningoutside theSt. Vincent tackles for the greatest U.8. C. gains.

'Andreas, Acker and Cunningham
found the university lino open to at-tack and made successive, marches to-ward the goal line, only to lose the ballwhen a touchdown seemed imminent.
The teams struggle to a 0 to 0 scoreand the Bt. Vincent men tossed awayWhat apparently should have been avictoryby a continual wrangling amongthe players as to the best manner ofad-
1 vanclng the ball.Time and again during the second
half they rushed the ball within strik-ing distance of tho U. H. C. goal line,only to enter Into a heated discussionns to what play should be attempted.Time was fleeting and the tired linemen of.the University team rested dur-ing the Intermission to come back freshfor the fray.

Such soliciting ofbusiness by clothes-line hangers is ex-pressly forbidden. The exact letter ofthe ordinance rends: "The peddler ofclothes lines shall abstuin and refrainfrom all shouting and crying out ofhis wares and occupation In the back-yards of residences." He may adver-tise himself In the street during ped-dlinghours, or from 8 a, in. to 9 p. m.,as much ns he pleases, but he has noright to yell Into rear windows.

The old superstition that women donot possess the Inventive faculty hasbeen pretty well exploded. It Is truethat all kitchen utensils have beenInvented by men, yet In the field ofbusiness, and particularly the adver-tising business, women are doing thebest work today In New York. It wasa woman who Invented "Jim Dumps'*r.nd "Spotless Town." Another womanhas recently devised a calendar, at thetop of which she placed a largepainted pansy. By a little sliding ar-rangement the pitnsy pulled down re-veals a packet of court plaster. Un-der the court plaster was the legend,"I'llstick to you when others cut you."Below was a space for an advertise-ment. She took this model to a brew-Ing company. They bought Itand paidher $100 for the Idea. Since then shehas not worked any more for $6 a week.

Gowned In the richest of silksand velvets, they lean back luxurious-ly In their handsomely appointed vic-torias; wrapped in costly furs andswntlind In veils they dash by in theirswiftgolng motors; In the smartest oftailored suits, with every hair of theirheads brushed and waved to perfec-tion, they parade on the sidewalks witha pmart looking Boston terrier or afluffy Pomeranian on a string. Theyore all alert, busy and Intent on some-thing, whether it be attendance at acharity meeting or an appointment atthe dressmaker's.
Special to The Herald.NEW YORK, Dec. 8.-The City of
N«w York Ispaying a pretty penny forthe downtown \u25a0 property which It elm-ply must have for 1U public buildings.One plot alone of less than hnlf anncre cost 15,000,000— the price paid forthe great Central park nlte about 70years ago. Yet, In the matter of buy-ing real estate for publicpurposes, theearly doges of New York seem to havebeen fnr-slghted. When Father Knick-erbocker first began investing In parkproperty on the Island of ManhattanIn the early part of the last century heprobably had no Idea that before an-other hundred years rolled over hishead his holdings In that particularkind of realty would make him aricher old man than any of the Antoro,or all the Astors together, Infact. Asan Instance of hla unconscloui fore-sight his fine exhibit as a real estatespeculator Is shown in Central Park,which, with the adjoining Manhattansquare, he bought In 1839 for $5,000,000.When he made this purchase and pro-posed walling the property In for thepurposes of a breathing place andpleasure ground for his sons anddaughters for all time the idea wasridiculed by many of the townsfolk,Mho looked upon what Is now Fifty-ninth street as a distant country or,at least, a rural district too remote tobe of any Immediate concern to NewYorkers. • •\u25a0\u25a0; • '
