The High school decided that it could not play as n high school team , as thrco of its 'men wore absent , nnd it was compelled to play sub stitutes to that extent. The pamo started with the ball In possession of the sohogl boys , and , by a good wedge , they made ton jyord * advance. From this point they were forced back for several ducc'esuful tackles behind the line , nnd finally lost the ball. The , boys were game , , however , aud con tinued to play good team work throughout the gamo. Purvis succeeded In making a run from the wedge for the ton yards , when the Young Men's Christian association got the ball , and , by their superior wolgnt , forced It down to their opponents' goal line and Tuflleld , by n running dive , carried the ball across the lino.

The Young Men's Christian association Is still hard at work perfecting arrangements for the great interstate championship foot ball game which Is to bo played at the local park between the clovans of the Universi ties of Nebraska and Iowa on Thanksgiving day. By that time cverythleg will bo in readiness , and the most stubborn battle of the kind over fought hero is undoubtedly forthcoming. The keenest rivalry exists between the teams of the two colleges , and each will put forth every energy In a frantlo effort to demonstrate its supremacy. The Nebraska 'loven are congratulating themselves on the undoubted fact that they are stronger than over this your nnd that their chances for victory nro extremely bright. The personnel , which is taken from the State Journal , und which does not seem to Justify the confidence loll , Is about as fol lows : I'ace , captain nnd quarter back , ts a romnrk- ablu cool and stoaOy player , ho performs thu ordinary duties of u quarter In a masterly nay , but he should strive to do'more. Ho blocks well at flrst but soon drops bohlnd the runner. Tliomuno In true of all the mon be hind the line. Klippln , lefI half. Is a splendid niun. Ho docs not use the Hat nf his linnd In wnrdtniroll enough , und In going through the line ho does not got enough momentum , but trusts to hla enormous strungth. Ho should perfect himself Jn blocking , for ho ought to beef of great service as a blockor. Yonl at present Is playing half back , but his old position la end rush , lie Is strong nnd speedy , but ho does not use his luinds and Is not a good dodger , but seems to run right into his opponent's arms unless he has a chunco to sprint nround him. Ho helps tlio others go through tlio line by pushing. 1'ull back la going to bo the weakest position in the team unless some un known puunouionan puts in nn appearance. Kyim Is thu most promising mun , but ho ts not a good sprinter , or as good as wo need. Ho is not swift enough to bo of much service" n blocker and an opposing sprinter could out strip him. Sovnrnl men are being tried for this position. Klcketts Is u promising nmn , but Is rather light. Lowry has also played the position several times and 1ms shown u woll. A week ago the line was a sorry-looking thing Indeed , but the men are fust learning the gumo and their progress is romarkabh1 , al though thf y are far from being skillful in their positions. Mel'urlnnd as center Is not a strong man , but Ilopowell has taken ills place. Ho Is , however , a hard worker and puts the ball back woll. Wilson has been out but a short time , yet he Is doing remarkably well. Soon ho will beeln lo take a moro active part In breaking through and blocking , for ho Is a quick man , when ho becomes more famil iar with the game. Dlrn for right guard Is doing well , ns ho Is very iicllvo and strong. The two tncklos , Oury and Whlpple , are Jewels at running with iho ball. They make a great team. Oury Is a llttlo slow In starting , but that Is bccanso of his Inoxpurlonco. Oury li bettor on the defensive and seems to natur ally lake lo this all-important position. Ho break i through woll. Whlpplo , Is subject to the fault of letting tils opponent box liltn In , and ho and hli end rush do not snom to play well together. These mon must learn to tucklo. Troyor is a light man , but active nnd a good tackier , and It Is hard to got around his end , Lowrlo also plays end in good shape aud tackles well. Anliland 1'roiiilxei Hard-Work.

Johnson was paced by Knlseloy , Miner , Baker and Uhodcs on a quadruplet , and beat the four men at the finish. Ho was so fresh that Manager Eck decided to send him at standing third , but on the first attempt the pistol failed to go oft" , after which the start was made. On the second trial a chain on the quadruplet broke and tlio trial was given up. That there might bo no reason to doubt the record , Eck wns very careful in sclecting'hisoflloials. The timekeepers F.

It may not be very generally known , but Is nevertheless a faot , that pnmha can boast of a lady whoso skill with the shotgun will comoaro favorably with that of the several professional female shots of the country.

The shot who downs nnd retrieves - trioves three sulpo out of every half dozen shots is doing remarkably well. In addition to the three scolopax , Mrs. Soavey also dis tinguished herself yesterday by killing seventeen blackbirds at ono shot with the right barrel , aud : i bittern , which took wing a moment later from her resting pluco in the roods , with the loft. Tno lady used a 10- gungo Parker , and that she uses it well Is' fully attested to by the exploits abovo' chronicled. There are ono or two other ladles of Omaha who are devotees of the Hold and stream In a mo.lcnito way , who might be appropriately mentioned In this connection , Mrs. John M.

Last night the Commercial club considered the question of voting 11,600,000 for the con struction of the Plattc- river cnnal. There were present some of iho citizens with the most oxtcnsltc property Interests in the city , and the discussion continued until mid night. President Gibbon called the mooting to order and utatcd that the object In Inviting the citizens to attend waa to listen to the presentation' facts and a discussion of the proposition ns to its feasibility and practica bility , ami ns to whether it would bo-a flmn- clal vcnturo that should bo undertaken. The ' president called upon Mr. S. U Wlloy ns representing the canal ccmpany , and who was familiar with the ontlro matter. Mr. Wiley rend from the reports of the engineers who hnvo passed upon the feasi bility of the construction of the canal. Don- tild Campbell , ono of the engineers , In his re port , said that no dinicully would bo experi enced In construction. Ho had checked up the estimates of KnglncerHowcll and found them liberal. In Mr. Campbell's estimation thu enterprise is pronounced a good ono , and capable of transmitting to the station iu the center of the 2lty 10,715" horse power , whljh at a cost of $ lMper ) horse power delivered Is cheap. Ho finds that to bring the canal to Papllllon creek will cost less , than $72. Mr. J. T. Fanning , another' the hydraulic engineers , In his report to the company , ap proved of tbo plans and profiles of Engineer Howell , and recommended the adoutlon of the route that lauds the power ' at Seymour park. " 'i City Engineer Kosowatcr , who hud ex- ' amlned the surveys and plans , was called for. His attention was first called to the scheme some four years ago , when he went to Kearney to uiako an examination. Then the guagings ho made showed about COO horse power , or 400 actual delivered. Ho mentioned the attention directed to Kear ney by reason of the canal enterprise , ami inquired If COO horse power would do so much for a town of that Mzo , what would 20,000 or 20,000 horse oower do for Omaha. He said the questions to bn determined are wnuther the plan is feasible , and if so Is it advisa ble for the city to enlor into such nn enter prise. Mr. Hosewator reiterated the state ments in his report to the county commis sioners regarding his investigations of foasi- bilily and his gauging of the Plat to fiver to determine the How of the stream. Ho an swered the question as to why the power is planted seven miles outslda instead of bring ing it into the city. To do this would re quire the addition of noout fifteen miles , : iud as the city is HO feet above the Papillloti river it would bo Impossible to construct the canal without an aqueduct three-fourths of a mile long across the Paplllion valley , Sad the viaduct would ha\o to bo constructed at the rate of 500 pounds to the square- foot , an expensive structure. Ho regarded itasim- pr.icthiablo to bring the canal into the city , and no point could bo found which would furnish A suitable place and altitude for the planting ot the irowcr. Ho quoted instances of the successful transmission of electrical horse power over wires and estimated the loss from the theoretical power bv transmission. This transmission ' of the power ho regarded as pr.ictieal and rolorred to the success attained by compressed air motors and bespoke for that system the supersedence of all othets for power and especially when transmission Is necessary. Ho entered into an exhaustive explanation of pressed air and its usages and applica tions in other cities of this country 'and Europe. Comprcsse'd air , after serving its usefulness as a power , can bo used for re frigerating purposes ; also at South Omaha in the packing houses In the manufacture ot ice and the propelling of street cars , doing away with the dangerous overhead wires. Ho said tlio transmission of the compressed air as a power would not bo expensive and with its application us suggested would prove successful , riciancliil FiTHurrs Dlscimod. In reply to the question as to the cost of horse power and the probable financial prac ticability of the proposed canal sehcmo , ho said that tbo estimated cost of each hor.se power is now not less than § 50 per annum. He estimated on a basis of the canal , water works and electric light plants costing : ? ! , - 000,000 , that n fair rate of iuterest can lie realized on the investment. T.ikinsr it for granted that the rate will bo reduced and the price of each horse placed at # X > per annum , with 10,000 horse powcr'oiroreil for sale , ho estimated that a revenue of $200,000 will bo derived. In addition , from the water and electric Jight consumers will come S.00- ! 000 and $ .r > 0,000 respectively per r.nnum There will also bo saved $30,000 in hydrant rental , plOO.OOO in electric and pas street lighting. The total of these , Mr. Hosowater estimated , would make a rate of 0 per cent on the investment. Mr. UosovVater explained that the freezing of the water would not greatly reduce the flow , and that with proper safe guards against contamination the wjtcr would be suitable for domestic purposes. Mr. Wiley Inquired whether a larger amount of horse power could bo economically secured than now talked of if such was sub sequently desired , Mr. Itosuwater replied it could by increasing the capacity of the canal. Mr. Edward Itnsowater inquired into the legal problems Involved , and inquired of Mr. Council as to wint proportion of the funds could bo duyotoil to the plan as mapped out. Mr. Council replied that the legal question was not to bo called up at the meeting , and President Gibbon said thnt the program did not contempluto the legal phase bomg dis cussed. B. H. Kobison liulste.l on Mr. Cou ncil being heard , and ho was callo.l upon by the chair , Mr. Council said that the proposition before - fore the people is not to issue bjnds for the construction of u ennui , but for the | iurK > so of acquiring : i water uorks nnd electric light plant. Ho explained that tills proposi tion brought the question within the boundn of the lavnnd muilu it perfectly legal. Ho favored the scheme anil b'lltovod It to ho a good one. In reply to a qlies.Ion from Mr Itosowater. Mr. Con neil fUated that In his judgment iho city has no direct authority to issue bonds for the construction of a canal and that the bonds , if voted , could not bo directed to the construction of a canal in c iso objection might bo rained , and lui did not bolluvo the legislature could enact laws that would 1111- thorize the same after the bonds had bcon voted. Dr. Miller cnvo a brief history of the In ception of the canal scheme , and oxplnlnou that it was tbu grandcRt HChctno over sug gested for Omaha. Ho told nf the visit of the committee from tbo unemployed uml the suggestion of members of that committee that the city construct the canal , ami of the willingness of thu company mid subsequent tjrnim ; over of the Plats , profiles and nil other matters bearing upon thu subject. Ur. Miller said that tills was the first time thu suggestion of the city constructing the canal was made. Ho stated that In C.IHO tbo city failed to construct the canal that trie company would do so in time. Tno doctor explained that while the city was not voting bonds to construct a canal , that the municipal authorities had by ordinai.co created u commission , composed of the stockholders of the company , and that to them would bn entrusted the construction of the cunul to within ten inilns of the city , and when completed will bo turned over to the city at a consideration of | 1. Dr. Miller asserted that ho was acting disinterestedly ; it WUB his dcsiru to eo the city proKrcssivo nnd enterprising , and that iviu hli reason for supporting the run.ll proposition. Ho predicted thut the * anal wilt bo In operation within live years , the city owning KB wat r work * nnd eloctrlo light plant. Mr. I'o | > pelon'i ) Opposition. Mr. W. S. Poppletoa , who opK | > so the proposition. ald that the question wai not to be looked at from the point of feuniMllty. but from a fiasucial taudpoint. Ifo read the proposition submitted to the people , nnd olmrnctnrlifid it nn luoso nnd UntcUardbd. Ho Insisted that the council would not bn under obligation to construct the cnnnl , and could purchnso the plant of cither the waterworks or rlcctrlo light companies. If the matter was loft to the commission named , ho felt satisfied that ovorv pcnnj would bo honestly expended , but ail thnt would bo necessary would bo for the council to repeal the ordinance creating the commission and cct its hands on the money. Ills uhiof ob jection , as stated , wns the placing at the disposal of the city council n sum so vast an proposed , with the absence of safeguards. Mr. Wlloy road a resolution passed by the ramil company , providing that the boardof directors shall ncqulro the necessary ground and construct the canal for the city , the same to bo turned over to the city at cost , Mr. C. H. Hoggs urged that the proposi tion submitted in the people should bo explicit , and the necessary safeguards should bo thrown around the same , and when that is done ho expressed the belief that the bonds would bo voted , Mr. B. H. itoblson raised the same objec tions regarding the absence of safeguards In the pro position. Mr. KUward Hosowator said that the matter \\as lit an unfortunate condition , Ha jlld not hcllovo that it Is possible to do thnt indirectly which Is not directly provided for. Ho favored the purchase of the water works plant as soon as possible. Ho showed that 1,500,000 would not purchase the water works under foreclosure , as it now stands. Than there would bo loft the 0110 nnd one-half million of dollars , and It would bo preposter ous to think of paying that amount for an electric llitht plant. Mr. liosonruter said that ho was in favor of the canal , and would support H proposition to vote fco.OOO.OOQ If there wns assurance thnt that amount would construct iho canal nnd bo eco nomically directed for that purpose. Ho did not believe the bonds could bo devoted to the eonstruet'oii of the canal If voted under thu present proposition , and in his judgment what is needed is legislation , which ho be lieved could bo secured in January as ho anticipated a special session of the legisla ture at that time. Mr. llosowatcr and Mr. Popploton insisted that every safeguard should bo provided when so vast a sum of money Is placed Iu the bunds of the council to prevent Jobbery. Dr. Millar xtofcmlod former councils arid thought they wcro frcn from jobbory'or cor ruption. Tno meeting- adjourned without an expres sion of sentiment from those present. Why Oh'lli > n Wn VI roil. * Mr. , Matt Ghaloh was janitor of the Wal nut Hill school up' to Thursday last. Now ho is out of a Job. . t For four years or moro Mr. . Ghalon at tended to the wauls of thu school. During that period the to tellers , who ought to know , say ho was not only faithful and competent , but anticipated the many little needs which contributed to the comfort nf the children and teachers. But while the janitor wns at tending strictly to his duties , ho neglected to make himself solid wit'i ' the pmvcrdth.it be. Ho was a success as a school Janitor , but wholly useless us a political janitor. Hence his unceremonious taking off. Several teachers iu thu school denounce Ghalnn's discharge as an outrage. They say it was brought about bv moans of falsehood and trickery. It appears that Ghalhh's views on politics and other questions did not harmonim with thosu of Superintendent Mucleod. The latter , tho" teachers say. tried various means to secure complaint against Ghalon for neglect of duty , but failed. Some time ago Macleod called on Ghalon , talked with , him and left the build ing. A moment later a confederate ap peared and asked Ghalon to drink. Not being a drinking man ho refused. But while the confederate was in the act of offering thu bottle to Ghalon Macleod pupped In and charged Ghalon with drinking on dutv. De ntals were useless. Discharge followed shortly. The teachers or the Walnut Hill school propose to brim ; the matter to the attention' of the Board of Education and are ready to provo the above statements.
