CHEROKEE , la. . Nov. 24. ( Special. ) If
all plans arc carried out as arc now laid ,
work will be commenced April 1 , 1896 , on a
building that will be , when completed , the
most massive and beautiful structure In Iowa ,
with one exception , the capltol building at
DCS Mollies. The building referred to is
the new lonn State Hospital for the Insane
to be erected at this place.
The commission appointed by the last leg
islature to superintend the planning and
erection of the new building , met In session
at Des Molnes on the 12th Inst. , and has
tendered Its report to Governor Jackson. In
this report the commission asks that the
appropriation of $200,000 , which was made
by the last session of the legislature , with
$50,000 available each year for four years
after 1896 , be Increased to $100,000 each
year.
The commission purchased the site for the
buildings In May , 1894 , ot N. T. Burrough ,
a local banker. The amount of land pur
chased nt the lime was 360 acres at a cost
of $11,500 and an option on 240 acre's more
to cost $12,000 , making In all 600 acres of as
good land as can be found In the state. The
spot which has been chosen for the location
of the buildings could have been no better
had It bjen graded for the purpose. With
a gentle east and south front slope and splen
did drainage In the rear U presents a fault
less location. The hospital , when completed ,
will be almost as large as any two of the
other three- asylums , and will accommodate
800 patients without any cottages. The main
and center building will be four stories
high , and each of the six wings will be three
stories with fifteen feet to a story. Only
the main building and two wlngy ,
with a capacity ot 480 patients , will
be erected at first , the completion of which
will occupy four yeais1 time. After that the
remaining four wings will be added when
necessary. .
It Is very essential that the new building
be fitted for use as soon as possible , owing
to the fact that each of the other three are
filled to more than their capacity , and a
great many patients have to be taken to
the different county poor houses , where Ihoy
cannot receive proper care , in order to make
room for new arrivals. Those transferred to
the county houses arc mostly incurable , and
If as many are sent to the poor houses in
the next four years as have been In the
past four , Ihere will be more than enough
to fill the new building , garret and basement ,
as soon as the doors are thrown open for
admission.
The commission in its report calls the at
tention of thp general assembly especially lethe
the overcrowded condition of the three ex
isting Institutions and strenuously urges that
ino additional appropriation mentioned be
made , In order that the present unfortunate
condition of affairs might be remedied ay
soon as possible , saying that the states cf
Minnesota , Illinois , New York and Massa-
chuse'ls take care ot all of their Insane In
Institutions supported and governed by the
state , and Iowa ought to do the same.
The new building will oost , completed ,
$1,000,000 , and It will , according to- plans ,
excel any building of the kind In the coun
try , both in masslveni'ss and grandeur. Sioux
Fallo granite will probably bo used Instead of
brick , as was first intended , which will add
much to the beauty of the structure. The
plans call for a building thoroughly equipped
with all modern Improvements. One great
advantage this new Institution will have over
the rest Is In the water supply. Water for
the building flows from six artesian wells ,
some of which are between COO and 800 feet
deep. The analysis shows that ! he water Is
absolutely trie from harmful Impurities , hut
carries a large percentage of Iron. It shows
also Eiifilcient of magnesium and sodium to
make It mildly alterative and diuretic. In
connection with the water and the beautiful
surroundings , the elevation Is one of the
highest In the state and the atmosphere Is
clear and pure.

The annual championship game of the
American Intercollegiate Foot Ualt associa
tion has been played , It has been won and
lost , and during the present week columna
and columns of aftermath will be devoted tea
a rehearsal of all the exciting Incidents con
nected with the match. The undergraduates
of New Haven wilt talk of Ihe marvelous
playing of gallant "Hrlnk" Theme for many
a day , while their fellow collegians In the
quiet little Jersey lown will discuss how Iho
game might have been won. To be sure the
championship of this association Is rather
an empty honor , the once honored Institution
having become a fossil with but two mem
bers , yet , Ihe public Is. and , probably al
ways will be , most Intensely Interested In the
annual struggle for supremacy between these
two old rivals. There la to much of tradition
connected wllh ll.e long line of games that
have been played between Ihe two teams
that new-comers In the field for foot ball
honors , however proficient they may be ,
are bound to recognize Ihe great national
Inlorest In the annual contest between
Princeton and Yale. As has been said all
the season , Yale's backflcld contains four
superior players. It was their work that
contributed so much toward success , but
nothing should detract from the manner In
which the Yale line handled a line that was
nupposed to be much mightier. Captain
Theme distinguished himself by his all round
playing. So often does the election to cap
taincy Interfere with the further good playIng -
Ing of footballlt > ls that It Is a pleasure to
see a captain lead his men In the way they
always do in the slory books.
*
Princeton's game was a dlsappolnlnvent to
those who had watched her conquest over
Harvard and had supposed that the small
army of coaches at Princeton slnco then was
making great headway with the team , despite
the frequent reports of costly Injuries- . The
number of Jcrseymen forced to retire during
the game gives emphasis to Ihe statement
that all were not In proper condition for a
game. Yale playsd through the entire game
without a single change , a circumstance
which should be plactd to the credit of the
icvlsed rules. The game has been reformed
Into a more op-n game within the last two
years , and U Is now a frequent occurrence to
SB ? a team with Us players in good physical
condition go through the whole game without
a single substitution. A few years ago this
happened but rarely. One other fact demon
strated by the Yale-Princeton game It Is
better to play a good substitute' than a lame
star. This question has ben argued time and
again by captains and coaches , but observanc ?
will show the truth of the above statement.
That the lame star does play U due often to
the fact that he Is captain , or elsa po promi
nently Identified with the team that his word
goes ; he says ho Is well enough to play and
the result is that he plays. Princeton did
her best work and most cf her scoring aft r
"subs" who were In good physical trim dis
placed the more experienced but crippled
'varsity players. This does not detract one
whit from the prasj ! duo LangJon La for th ?
game he playe.l while on the field. He was ,
If reports be true , in no condition to play , as
was the cape with him in the Pennsylvania
ganio at Trenton last year.
*
On all sides may be heard the remark.
"Yalo Is champion. " Champion of what ?
Champion over Princeton. Yes. but that is
all. Because the Oranga and the Black
waved supreme over the Crimson U does
not follow at all that Yale could defeat
Harvard. The fact Is , comparisons In foot
ball aredangeroua If this argument IB
accepted , and It be concluded that Harvard
would be beaten by Yale , should the two
meet , then It would be true that Cornell
could defeat Yae. ( Yale was tied by Brown ,
and Cornell defeated Brown. But this state
ment , though arrived at by the earns manner
of logic , Is too startling to b ? accepted. Yale
has played ono big game and won It.
Princeton met end defeated both Harvard
and Cornell before tackling Yale , and is en
titled to the more honor , because of the
manly , sportsmanlike courser pursued. No ,
Yale Is not champion. Harvard , Pennsyl
vania , Cornell , Michigan and Brown are to
b ° conquered first. The day 19 surely com
ing when these intercollegiate muddles shall
bo swept out of existence. They have no
business to stain th ? athletic world , and all
will welcome Ihe day when we may know
who is champion , and may say "where we're
at. "
It has bcn a. long time since a more even
game between any of the big eastern teams
has been played than that which ths people
at Cambridge saw on Saturday last. Had
Brewer kicked his two easy goals the score
would have been 18 to IT , possibly a bstter
Indicator of the closeness of the struggle.
Pennsylvania won , won in an honorable man
ner , and won because the best full back in
the college world was wearing the Red and
Blue. To Brooke , more than to any other
player , IB Pennsylvania indebted for th ? mag-
nlflclnt vlc'ory. His goal from the flJld must
have been a pretty thing. His kicking all
through the game , Including the two goals
from touchdowns , and hlu running on fake
kicks , all go to show what an important
factor a first-class full back is In a close
game. The Pennsylvania line did Itself proud ,
but the three center men found all they
wanted to handle in Holt and the Shaw boyz.
Back of the line Captain Williams and quar
ter back and Brooke at full back excelled
Bealo and Drnlop. On the other hand Charley
Brewer and Wrlghtlngton proved superior to
Minds and Qelbert as ground-gaining half
backs. Harvard had the better o ( It at the
end , and would have outshone Pennsylvania
even more completely had not the Harvard
faculty prevented Captain Arthur Brewer
from occupying his place at end. It was a
good game and the Quakers have every right
to rejoice , as U is the first time they have
conquered the foot ball players of Harvard at
Cambridge.
\Vlth the two great contests Saturday
disposed of the cranks of the east will now
await the one big game to be played , the
Pennsylvania-Cornell match at Philadelphia
Thankrslvlngday. . Now that Pennsylvania
has won the Harvard game It will be expected
to win from the Ithacans , but the latter have
a way of upsetting all calculations at times
when they are not supposed to figure. Last
year Pennsylvania dlspoad of Harvard and
Princeton by good , large margins , but the
doughty little Cornelllans held the Quakers
down to six small points and came near
scoring themselves Cornell's eleven men
do Mot compare favorably with the giants
of the Quaker City In size , but they are
fast and they are ftghtera till the whistle Is
I lown. Cornell will have Fennell back for
center , Hall at guard , and Rogers at guard.
These men were Injured early In the season
and have been on the hospital Hit since ; their
presence ought to help along the Lillipu
tian army considerably , Chick Freeborn will
probably bo unable to take hla place at guard ,
HH he has not been well all the season. Even
then , the Cornelllans are better off by two
men than tl'ey have been. This will
strengthen the line right where It baa been
the weakest , and ought to stop the march
of the sturdy Quakers not a little. A snull
score may be looked for from Philadelphia
Thursday night.
The Nebraska university eleven went to
Grlnnell , la. , on Friday last , thinking that
but little difficulty would be 'experienced In
turning down the collegians of that Institu
tion. After the slaughter , when the casualties
had all been reckoned , It was discovered that
the game- was QrlniicU's by twenty-four
polnti' , while the Lincoln players had never
once crossed their opponentgoal. . This U
humiliating , to § ay tbe least. That Nebratka
can play good foot ball was demonstrated In
the local game against the Missouri Tlgera.
That there has bi-cn a letdown somewhere
slnc then U evident to all who have observed
the scores that have followed that splendid
ganio. It was said In the dlipatcb from
Orlnnell that tbe Lincoln boys lost because
they htd not sufficient clothing with them to
protect them from the cold blasts of that
locality. It was tald tbe Iowa boy * had an
unfair advantage because their friend ; cup-
plied 'hem wittov rroaM tKPfr 'ItUnkcl * .
Pray , whoso fault wn It If lhVJJ , > bra"kjns
were ne-t so pupplleil ? Hut CTfn had Ihey
had whole clothing slorc tlli'y ' fcould not
hav ? donned the ettra clothing. ' fcxc'tpl when
time was called and bslwccn1 'the halves
And It wasn't then that Ncbrb'MU w dc-
feafed , U was during the game , 'when the
play should have been sufficiently fast and
vigorous to hav kept the players from know
ing anything about the Umperature. It was
not too cold for the Iowa playersbut It was a
cold day for the players froai this state.
The team goes to Hastings to , phy the
Young Men's Christian association .eleven . ol
that place tomorrow. It Is p ftbable that a
largo number of substitutes will be used ,
while the regular 'Varsity men xylll b saved
for Thursday's contest In this city. The
latter game , for which great preparations are
being made by the local lovers of the grand
rport , will be against the university of Iowa
team. Iowa has shown up very weak sa far
this season , Kansas having no trouble In
scoring fifty-two points against It. U Ne
braska will put up Itn best game a targe tcorc
In Us favor should result. If the continued
Indifference Is manifested , It will be a pretty
even contest. It Is to be hoped that compe
tent officials , men who have played Ihe game
and know whereof they speak , will bo choeen
for officials , and that they regldly enforce the
rules and allow but twenty-two men , besides
themselves , within the enclosure.
Michigan easily disposed of the players from
Minnesota , winning by twcnly-two point * ,
whllo their opponents failed lo > > corc. Only
once was the Michigan goal menaced , and
that was due to the fine punting of Full Hack
Parkyn of Minnesota. Michigan preparing
for a great contort with Chicago on Thanks
giving day. From the form Coach Macaulcy's
men have so far exhibited , it Is right to In
fer that Slagg's pupils will not be In the gamete
to any great extent. Northwestern , which
gave promise of developing Into a fast team
early In the season , was snowed , under at the
University of Illinois' , 38 lo 4. This Is worse
lhan Ihe defeat ll received at the hands of
Captain Young's Missouri Tigers. Lifaycltc
again defcalcd Lehlgh , bul this time the boy.-
from Bethlehem managed lo score. This
vlclory give * Ihe series to Lafayette , and ret-
llts for another year the bllter dispute that
li always waged between these two colleges
of Pennsylvania. Brown's- defeat by West
Point was altogelhcr uncxpeclcd. The pupils
of Uncle Sam have shown great skill In the
ganio for revcral years , and have this year
reached the top nolch. Bui It was hardly to
be expected that they would defeat by such n
decisive score , 21 to 0 , the team that played
Yale to a tic , and was whipped by Cornell
only 6 to 4. _ _

or small ones. The a tcof 1873 , he says , was
only 'nominal. '
In his report Ilia director of the mint says
that the result ot the currency legislation
ot the United States for over 100 yeiru has
jeen such as to lave an Incoherent monetary
syitem as Inconsistent , Illogical and expen
sive as can well be Imagined , that Inspires
IttU confidence at home , and Is not con
ducive to our credit abroad , and Its reform
s one of the most Important , urgent politi
cal and financial questions of the hour.
