CAPTAIN ELOPES;
LEAVES COLLEGE
"Ted" Bowen, of University,
and Miss Mary Blanton Mar?
ried in Washington.
tSpeclnl to The Times-Dispatch.]
Chariottesv'lle. Vu? October 19.?
Fledley McNeer Bowen. of Freeman, W.
V?_, the sturdy captain of the varsity
footb-iii team at the University of vir
Klnla, surprised his friends yesterday
by eloping to Washington with Miss
Mary Irvine Blanton, formerly of the
un'verslty. but more recently of Lex?
ington, where she was residing with
her mothnr. Mrs. Sallte Blanton. Miss
Blanton came to Charlottesvlllo on
Monday to visit her sister. Miss Elisa
belli Blanton. and yesterday afternoon
was joined at Main Street Station by
Mr. Bowen. They took the- local train
for Oordonsvllle, and there awaited
Mo. 4. the fast train to Washington.
The young; couple was accompanied to
the capital city by Mr. Bowen's friend
and fraternity mate. .John Dlbert, of
Holliduy&burg, Fta., and they were
married at ? o'clock in the Presiby
terlan Church, of w,hich the Rev. Wal?
lace Radcliffe Is pastor.
Mr. Bowen was taking a special
course In the law school, and had been
a student In tho university for the
past three sessions, ilo was one of
tho most popular men in college, hav?
ing been prominent In athletic) social
an,i fraternity circles. He played at
ond on the. varsity football team for
three : msons, and was regarded us
one of the best punters in the South,
Following close upon the announce?
ment of the marriage of "Ted" Bowen,
captain of the Virginia football eleven
came the nc?vi to-day that he had re?
signed from college, und that i now
lender for the team would have to be
chosen. The election of his successor
will take place to-morrow afternoon.
Three names are mentioned in connec?
tion with the captaincy?Todd, Pinlny
and Wood,
The resignation of Bowen comes as
quite a blow to the footb'tll sound, as
It leaves tho team practically without
an experienced punter. Bowen bus been
doing all the kicking for the jinst
throe seasons, and no attention has
been given to developing other play
ors In that department of the game.
Couch Yancey I? thus thrown in quite
a predicament, aa the big games of the
schedule are uncomfortably near at
hand, and he will have to act quickly
to develop a punter who is ae reliable
as Bowen.

The most interesting Incident of eir- I
cus day. which is free to ull who wish !
to avail themselves of the opportunity, I
Is tho arrival and unloading of the
five special railway trains bearing the
circus paraphernalia and the unlmals. ?
Then- are 6<i,i beautiful horses with [
the Barnum & Bailey Greatest Show
on Marth, which give two exhibitions

One of the especially Interesting
sights is tho performance of two
mammoths In getting out of their
huge car.
The other elephants In this remark
abb herd of forty rare specimens of
Asiatic and African origin in vacating
their traveling compartments walk
down a heavy gangplank that inclines
from the car door down to the ground.
The car doors are ten teet high, which
of course makes the big elephants
stoop to got through as they step out
upon the descending plank. The two
mammoths are so tall and so wide,
however, that they cannot get out
of the car door until the gangplank is
taken away. They, therefore, calmly
wait until till of their traveling mates
have "walked the plank" and aro ;
grouped together awaiting tho coming
of their leaders. Then it is_ that the
two monaytors get In motion and prove
that they know a thing or two about
the solution of mathematical problems.
They drop to their knees, and wrig?
gling their great bodies forward slow?
ly manage to get their front feet out
and upon tho ground.
The Hour of the car Is about live
feet nboyo the ties of the roadway, but
this does not keep them from reach?
ing the solid foundation of the earth
without mishap >r trying delay. Onco
their fon feei are on the ground they
draw their bodies forward, nllowin.ir
their hind legs to drag along the car
floor. In this way they are soon able
to gel one hind foot n t and then
tho rest is easy. They act as if the.v
took more or less pride In this feat,
and as soon as it Is achieved; they
begin In trumpet and wave their
trunks with an energy that bespeaks
deep-sented satisfaction. The waiting
group of elephants greet this signal
Of their leaders with an effective dis?
play of their own. an 1 begin to am?

that makes their ring performance
both astonishing and pb-aslng.

parade, which will leave the show
grounds about 10 o'clock on the morn?
ing of show day.
