LAWRENCB , Kan. , Nov. 5. ( Special
Toregram. ) The greatest foot tiall contest
that over occurred In the west WOK that on
McCpok nelil this afternoon between the
University teams of Kansas and Nebraska.
The Rome was witnessed by 3,000 people and
the day was an Ideal ono for the game. The
Interest In the result was Intense , owing
to the sauabblo that followed the game be
tween the two coltegou at Lincoln last year.
The teams wcru evenly matched In regard
to players and practice , although the Kan
sas team had a llttlo the best In weight and
training. The game was won by Nebraska
by o score of IS to C. The game was won
through the superior all-around playing of
Nebraska nnd particularly was the playing
of the Nebraska backs stronger than these
of Kansaw. The Kansas line gave way every
time it was hit by Nebraska and gains were
made by the visitors at any point they chose
to try.
The Kansas team played a very rough
gatno and it was almost dark when the
contest was finished. The playing of Ne
braska was marked by a constant sparring
for wind. There was jnuch money put up
on the garao , as Kansas was confident of
winning. The beet playing for Nebraska was
Oono by Benedict , Williams , Erwin and
Melford , while the Kansas stars were Moaso
nnd Owens. The Kansans had three men
retired during the game , two from Injuries
and ono disqualified for slugging. The Ne
braska team played the same all the way
through. The teams lined up as follows :

cipally by end nm.i. J , J. Hces of Council

ten yards and secured the ball to start the

CAMBRIDGE. Mass. , Nov. 5.-Hnrvard
won the great foot ball game on Soldiers'
Held this afternoon by her superior kicking-
nnd her ability to check Pennsylvania's
guard-back formation nnd to turn tn ad
vantage the miserable fumbllntr of the
Quakers' backs.
The score wns 10 to 0. It wns n hard ,
rlenn game , fiercely contested from start to
tlnlsh. abounding in excltlnc and brilliant
plays. In the irmrvelously short tlmo of
llftocn seconds titter the game began Har
vard had scored through Coombs' fumble
on the kick-off , while In the second half a
bo.iutlful goal from the Held by Burnett on
a place kick ridded another five points to
the score und clinched the game for the
crlmsnn.
Whllo Daly nnd Dlbblee were not only
sure In ratchlntt Hnr ' kicks , and as a
rule succeeded in mnklnp fifteen to twenty
yards on the run back , Coombs , JInrrlson ,
MoMahnn nnd even Outland seemed abso
lutely unable to cither Judge the punts or
catch them cleanly when the luill was ap
parently In their hands.
When Harvard realized that the Pennsyl
vania barks had not the faintest knowledge
of handling punts , running with the ball
was almost abandoned and especially In the
second half. Dtbblpn nnd Daly did Home of
the prettiest dodging ever seen at Cam-
brldKe.
Pennsylvania's tackles , Goodman and
Garnett. were altogether too lively in cot-
ting through and nailing Dtbblee , and the
ends broke up the interference surprisingly
well. This was , perhaps , the only dis
couraging feature of the game from a Har
vard point of view. With the exception of
the last live minutes of thu first half wh < > n
the plunging of Reid and lioal , and the
magnificent run by Dlbblee , carried the boll
tn Pennsylvania's twenty-flve-ynrd line ,
wtipre Haifhton. owlne to lnk of lme.
Irl'd a goat from the field , the Q nkers stoid
tip grandly. Their stiff rally In the last
minute of play on their thlrty-ttve-yard
line reminded one strongly of Yale's famous
defense of her goal Inst year
The crowd waft delighted with the kicking
game. In Inn llrct part of the game Hiire's
long , low kicks had more of n carry In them I
than HaUghton'H high punts , but ns the
game progressed the Pcnn ylvanlnn was
fairly outpuntrd and two of his attempts
were successfully bloc-ki'd , while every ono
of Haughton'ti went off cinooth nnd clenn
und at the end had n surprising amount ut
power. It wns nt the quarter that Harvard
outclassed Pennsylvania nnd showed In
Daly ono of the bent quarterbacks ever
seen In Cambridge. He ran the team with
remarkable Judgment and was surprisingly
quick In dUcernlng Pennsylvania's weak
polntH. While It cannot bo nld , perhaps ,
that Harvard owfd her victory to Daly , It
must bo acknowledged that but for the oure
tackling of the stubborn little quarterback
two or three of the Quakers who broke
through the line would nave scored. Penn
sylvania's ends were strong nnd sure , but
Farley , who went In for Cochrano In the
second half , waa superior to either.

fcnteil , U to C.
KVANSTON , III. . Nov. 5. Michigan's
heavy team defeated the Northwestern uni
versity cloven this afternoon by a score of
6 to 6. The result was In many respects n
surprise , us the game was expected to bean
an easy one for Michigan. The contrary ,
however , proved true. Northwestern pre
sented a , vastly different team from the one
that lined up against Chicago and showed
remarkable Improvement in every way. The
men handled the ball better and got the
plays oft quicker. The tackllngs were poor ,
especially In a broken Held.
Michigan's guards nnd tackles did flno
work. Stickle was used a great deal in the
line bucking and almost invariably made
his distance. A muss play on tackle was
used a great deal and proved very effect
ive. Uarrabcc , Wldcman and Caley all ran
well with the ball , Caloy making the long
est run for the maize anil blue forty yards.
Four different times Michigan had the ball
on Northwcstcrn's five-yard line , but was
unable to push It over , losing the ball once
for holding , while three times the purple
held for downs.
For Northwestern. Bothnc , Theme and
Johnson , the little 138-pound back , were the
stars. Johnson twice saved touchdowns by
magnificent tackles , while Bothno's live-
yard run after breaking through the line
resulted In Northwestern's touchdown.
All the scoring waa done in the first half.
Ir. the second half the ball was in North-
western's territory a great deal. The purple -
plo players exhibited a tendency to hold
the line and this may liavu coat thu game ,
as twice they lost tills ball on this account
when within easy distance of Michigan's
goal line. Left Guard Thorno of North
western had ills neck badly sprained in a
scrimmage in the second half and was car
ried off the field. The teams lined up us

TABOR , la. , Nov. C. ( Special Telegram. )
The gome of foot ball this afternoon on
the Tabor gridiron between Tabor college
and Amity college was one of the best ever
played In this placo. A largo crowd from
all the towns around watched the Tabor
players avenge themselves on Amity for the
drubbing given them two weeks ago.
Amity's line went like chaff before the on
slaught of the Tabor boys , who made gains
at will throughout the line. No score was
mad in the first half. At the second call
of time Tabor made first touchdown In six
minutes and followed In rapid tfuccesnlon
ivlth three more the ball being In Tabor's

NEW HAVEN. Conn. . Nov. B.-Yale this
afternoon defeated the Chicago Athletic
association's eleven at foot ball by a score
of 10 to 0. The game started with the ball
In Yale's hands. The team went tearing
down the Held straight for the Chicago
goal with terrific on-rushes until almost
ov r the line , when the ball went to Clil-
cag-oi on a fumble. From then on the fray
was a d nperato fight over the gridiron.
In the second half Yale substituted Grant
for Allen at tackle , Harvey for Gllmore.
Dunee for Mcliride. Blocovlch for Coy and
Stlilman for Grant. Harvey and Stlllman
seemed to put dash and ginger into the
fagging Yale rusher ? , who were very much
lighter than the heavy Chicago team.
The lam ten or fifteen minutes of play
was much botttr on the Yale side and cor
respondingly weaker on the Chicago side.
Yale rushed them down the field , as early
In the game , and Harvey was sent over
for the only touchdown of the game.

Mini A
DES MOINES , Nov. 3 , To the Sporting
Editor of The Bee : A claims a Jack rabbit
sheds Its coat and turns white In the win
ter. B claims the large , white rabbit killed
In winter Is not u Jack rabbit , but a differ
ent specie that stays white the year around.
Which Is correct ? Reader of Sunday Bee.
Ans. B is correct. The jack rabbit does
not change its color , nor does any other
rabbit In this country , as far as known to
the sporting editor , except the swamp rab
bit. This rabbit llvea In .tho northlands ,
but is sometimes seen along the Canadian
border , especially In Now York. The white
rabbit you refer to is probably an English
Importation. It Is not a rabbit , but a large
hare. If you saw it In northeastern Iowa ,
such is the case , for an English settlement
there had a batch of hares sent to them
and the animals have been breeding rapidly.

HEAVY TRAVEL FOR WINTER
Omaha Passenger Men Expect a Strong Local
Movement ,
FRED NASH SIZES UP THE SITUATION
SlltivnnkcoV General A Kent Given III *
Kcaxonn for Thinking lln liienn
Will Remain Good [ or Some
Months to Conic.
The last of the Midway denizens to leave
Omaha for some tltno have Uen moved out
on the two-thirds rate by the railroads run
ning to Chicago and to SI. Louif. The pas
senger men feel considerably relieved and
arc congratulating themselves that they have
jecn able to send In a report to the Western
Passenger association that the agreement on
rates was maintained and that It was all
done without the aid of Chairman Caldwcll.
The record made by the Omaha passenger
men on this business la said to bo uncqualed
In the United States.
With this business out of eight the pas
senger men arc figuring on winter travel.
It Is anticipated that travel into
this city will show a marked de
crease on account of the closing
of the exposition , but there are other classes
of travel that the passenger men are ex
pecting to develop through the winter , and
will bo disappointed If they do not secure
considerable business from them. In dis
cussing the outlook for passenger business
here , General Western Agent Fred A. Nash
of the Milwaukee road said to a Bee re
porter : "Passenger business on the lines
hero will naturally fall off some , now that
the big uhow Is over , but there la going to
be a good deal more travel than most pco
plo anticipate. It Is true that many of the
pcoplo out In the country who took the trip
to the exposition will make the trip last
them for some time , but , on the other hand ,
there arc several thousand people In Omaha ,
South Omaha and Council Bluffs who usually
go away during the summer who have re
mained right hero this season and enter
tained their relatives and friends visiting
the exposition.
Omnhnn * AVI 11 Travel.
"Now these people hero want a rest.
They are tired and they want to get away.
They want to travel and they want to have
a chance to pay back some of the visits that
their numerous sisters and cousins and
aunts paid them during the exposition. A
good many of these pcoplo will go south.
This Is the class of travel we're looking for ,
and wo think It will counterbalance the de
crease In travel caused by the closing of
the exposition. During the summer the
whole country came to visit Omaha. Now
Omaha will reciprocate and go to visit all
parts of the country. "
Similar opinions are held by other Keen
observers of the movements of travelers.
The advertising agents of all the railroads
are getting ready for the winter campaign
nnd expect to create a lot of travel. The
Union Pacific expects to take advantage of
the popular Interest in Hawaii and will
Issue an atractlve book on trips to that
Island. Passenger business to Hawaii , to
southern California and other winter resorts
will bo boomed by the Burlington and the
Rock Island roads. The lines runnlug to
Chicago and to St. Louts are commencing
to boom eastern nnd southern travel , es
pecially trips to Havana , Porto Itlco and
other colonial acquisitions.
The steamship agents In Omaha report
that the last summer has been the lightest
season known In a great many years BO far
as transatlantic travel Is concerned. The
exposition is E.ild to have had more to do
with diminishing the number of European
trips from this territory than anything else.
The number of persons going across the
ocean this fall as well as these Inquiring
about steamship rates Is said to be larger
than usual at this time of year. Immigrant
travel , which usually crosses the ocean In
the fall and winter seasons , Is very good
out of Omaha at present and promises to
continue so for some ttmo to come.
New Citizens for Neltranka.
William M. Lowman of Grand Island
writes to the passenger department of the
Burlington route that the prospect for the
location of a large number of settlers In
that part of the state Is good. Several
parties from the east and from Illinois are
now making arrangements to come out to
Nebraska.
With this information comes an answpr
to the statement that Nebraska could not
rnlso wheat several seasons in succession.
It ie from Israel Boyd of Roscland , Neb. ,
who cays : "I began raising winter wheat
In 1896. That year I had twelve acres , with
an average yield of twenty-two bushels per
acre. In 1897 I had twenty-five acres , with
an average yield of twenty-six bushela to
the acre. In 1898 I had nfty acreg , with an
average yield of twenty-nine and one-half
bushels to the acre. This fall I have sixty
acres seeded and looking One. "

PREPARING CANAL REPORT
Intended to Be Complete and Conclusive as
to Maximum Oost and Practicability.
NO SERIOUS PROBLEMS ARE INVOLVED
Only moment of Doubt IN
CoHt DllUunlty of Arriving at Ac
curate FlKiirrn
rincca at $ iu.-oooooo.
WASHINGTON , Nov. r . The Nicarnguan
Canal commission , appointed by the presi
dent under an act of congress directing n
complete inquiry into the project with
particular reference to Its practicability and
cost , has about completed Its work and the
present prospect Is that the report will be
handed ! to Secretary Hay In about a month.
The commission has taken a building on
Fifteenth street , formerly used as the Ger
man legation , and under the direction of
Admiral Walker , with a force of thirty-six
computers , draughtsmen , engineers , etc. , is at
work on the report , the mass of technical
matter which will accompaniit making In
all the most elaborate presentation of the
subject ever attempted. The commission Is
laboring , however , to avoid prolixity and
to centralization of the salient features of
this great project , leaving the statistics and
details to follow in supplement ! ' . This
promises to give a report which will be In-
tclllglblo by Its conciseness and yet suf
ficiently comprehensive to meet the require
ments of such a largo problem. The com
mission has gone about Its work feeling that
It was likely to furnish the basis for the
final action of this government on the build
ing of the canal.
The conclusions reached by the commis
sion will not bo announced until the report
Is submitted. It is known , however , that
on the two salient features practicability
and cost the commission will report first ,
that the project of a canal joining the
Atlantic and Pacific hy what is commonly
known as the Nicaragua route la entirely
feasible and practicable , presenting no en
gineering problems which cannot be met ; and
second , that the cost can be presented with
a fair degree of mathcmatlc exactness , al
lowing for excavation , construction and all
other Items. The report will give this cost
in figures , but the amount Is not yet known
even to the commissioners , na It will depend
upon tbo careful computations now "being
made. The purpose Is to inako It as near
mathematically exact a possible and not to
glvo a mere opinion of the various com
missioners. Admiral Walker hns already ex
pressed the opinion before a congressional
committee that the cost would be within
$125,000,000 , and this Is understood to be his
opinion still , nut the report will state a
llguru not based on opinion , but on the care
ful calculations of the many experts who
are now at work on every branch of the
project.
One Element of Doiilit.
The only element of doubt will be In es
tablishing the unit of cost for certain esti
mate * ! , as there may bo differences as to thin
unit , depending on conditions of the Eoll ,
climate , etc. for Instance , whllo the com
missioners may fix with exactness the total
number of cubic feet of excavation required
In such a vast undertaking , It Is not easy to
fix on 50 cents or any other sum as the
unit for reckoning the whole or any consid
erable part of the work. This wlir be done
as close as possible under the circumstances
and the indications are that the figures as to
cost will bo exceptionally conclusive In
showing the utmost limit of cxpenso to
which the government could be put If the
building of the canal is begun.
The report , It Is understood , will bo
unanimous , as the commissioners are agreed
on all the cost , the only difference being
these natural shades of opinion as to the
unit of cost on some of the branches of the
work. The report win not refer to the polit
ical questions Involved , but will confine
Itself to the scientific and engineering prob
lems. The political questions , It Is recog
nized , are for the State department and for
congress , and these will bo working out
about the time the report Is presented. They
Involve the question of concessions and
rights granted by Nicaragua to the old Nica
ragua Canal company , and quite recently tea
a company of American capitalists ; also the
question of the right of the United States
to build tbo canal as a distinct government
enterprise , without reference to private con
cessions ; and finalfy the complications grow
ing out of the disappearance of Nicaragua
on November 1 as a sovereign nation , nnd Its
absorption by the United States of Central
America. Aa trtatcd , however , the commis
sion will not deal with these political ques
tions and will not make recommendations
or discuss conflicting private Interests , but
will confine Itself strictly to the project as
an engineering enterprise.
It Is known to bo the private opinion of
some of the members of the commission that
the government , nnd not private enterprise ,
IB the only means by which the canal ran
be constructed. One of the most eerloui
j obstacle * urued acainst the canal ue a cov
eminent project has been the Crayton-Bul-
wer treaty and the right of Joint occupancy
and control under it claimed by Great
Britain. Uut there Is a growing feeling that
the sentiments developed between the two
countries during the progress of the recent
wnr will go far to remove this obstacle and
will pave the way for a complete under
standing between the countries.

HEART DISEASE.
SOME 1MOTH REGARDING THE HAIMD
INCREASE OF HEART TROUIILES.
I Doot Re Alarmed , lint Look For < lir
| ClIUNC.
i Heart troubles , at least among Americans ,
1 ( ire certainly Increasing and whllo this may
be largely duo to the excitement nnd worry
of American business life , it Is moro often
the result of weak stomachs , of poor dlgcs-
| tlon.
I Heal , organic heart disease Is incurable ;
but not ono case In a hundred of heart
trouble Is organic.
I The close relation between heart Iroublo
' and poor digestion 'Is because both organs
are controlled by branches of the same great
nerves , the Sympathetic and 1'ncuhogantrlc
In another way , also the heart Is affected
by that form of poor digestion , which causes
gas and fermentation from half digested
food ; there Is a feeling of oppression and
heaviness in the cheat caused by pressure
of the distended stomach on the heart and
lungs , Interfering with their action ; henc
i arises palpitation and short breath.
j Poor digestion alto poisons the blood ,
makes it thin and watery , which Irritate *
and weakens thu heart.
I The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble Is to improve the digestion and to
insure the prompt assimilation of food.
This can best be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe , pleasant and ef
fective digestive preparation , like Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets , which may be found nt
most drug titores and which contain val
uable , harmless digestive elements in a
pleasant , convenient form.
It Is safe to ay that the ( regular , persis
tent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at
meal times will cure any form of stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.
