Tor tho last week the foot ball team of
the University of Nebraska lias bcun utulor
xolng a severo courso In training and, al
though It Is early In the Reason, Iho players
begin to show good team work. Coach
booth has devoted most of bis attention to
the formation of the Interference and tho
development of a punter. Tho latter ap
peared to bo tho weak point, but within
tho last week novernl men have shown con
siderable ability In this line. Raymond
will probably 1111 tho position of fullback,
being tho best punter on the team. Kings
bury, who played tackle on the 'OS team, Is
agitlti In training and Is In line physical
condition. Hyan. who will play left cud
on tho team, seems to be especially strong
In his defenrlvo work. He Is also one of
the best sprinters on the team. Uagcr,
tho Lincoln High school player, shows fine
form and Is a good ground gainer. Cran
doll also plays, n fust- panic,
Tlu team seems to huvu tho entire sup
liort of the student boily. Hundreds of
:ollcglans crowd around the side lines each
evening to watch the practice and develop
ment of the team. Manager Tukey has
succeeded In arranging a good schcdulo of
gurucB nnd is placing the team on n firm
financial basis.

fine players and knew the gamo. but lacked
tho driving ability, nnd a coach must be a

All tho coachcrs seem to think they have
a good show for a championship team this

The squad this fall will have
tago of good coacbes, a huge
factor In ultimate success. Commandant
I'earso of tho cadet battalion has offered
his services, rendered valuable by long,
hard work on the 'varsity at Lincoln, He
will bo assisted by Prof. Nathan Ilern.tcln
of tho scientific department and Prof. Van
Matre of tho commercial department, both
of whom aro experienced In tho wiles of
tho Kama.
Englebart, cnptaln, will probably retain
his old place at fullback, where he will
play the field general with all his men
beneath his eye. A younger member of
the family has entered his freshman year
and will do his uttermost to gain tho post
of quarterback. Percy Powell Is working
nt end nnd promises to hold the position.
Waller, the heavy center, who did meri
torious work last year, will again Inter-
p0B() hu ,,0(1. nl the ol(l )lacCi McDonald
Is doing spirited work nt tackle. Welsh,
one of the stari of a year ngo, has trans
ferred his attention to gaining entranco
to the 'varsity squad at tho State univer
sity.
From the prospects offered by the ma
terial and corps of coaches tho team will
surpass that of one year ago, when It met
only one defeat that nt Lincoln under
cxtcnuntlng circumstances. The old team
was nble to overcome Tabor college nnd
other strong aggregations. Council Hliiffs
seemed rather timid nbout trying con
clusions In 1SDT, but will bo more cngor
for tho frny tho coming season.
In return for ino cold treatment bo-
stored upon Ornalm by tho University of.
Nebraska tho foot ball interest In the
city will center In largo part about tho
doings of tho Omaha Medical college,
which has been forging rapidly to tho
front during the last few years. The
Medics havo assembled n formidable line.
with some speedy nnd Judicious backs, nnd
havo been nblc olnco they attained the
fullness of the powers to defeat teams of
considerable reputation. Almost nil of the
old squad have rlurned this fall and the
doughty young doctora will ho In their old-
time form within a very few weeks.
During tho two principal months of the
season the college has its schcdulo filled
with a worthy list of competitors, mostly
vigorous colleges of Iowa. Tho home
games will take place nt tho Vinton street
park and the foot ball loving public will
take occasion to wend Its way thither.
Tho conch this fall will bo Dan Taylor.
A. Moore Is captain and I). V. Lee man
ager.
The first game of tho season will be with
Dellevue collego nn October IS, to be fol
lowed ono week later by n contest with
Omaha university. The third gamo will
occur with Hastings college on October 27
und tho fourth with Donno on November
10. A series of panics then follow with
tho Ames Agricultural college, November
7; Drake college. Des Moines, November
21, nnd Hush Medical college. Thanksgiv
ing day. The Hush Medics of Chicago have
a clean record among the medical frater
nity nnd have even taught lessous on oc
casion to nourishing universities. Tho
.Thanksgiving game may be looked upon
as n worthy climax of tho local foot hall
season.
The cloven who will sustuln the honor of
the maroon nnd gold for tho University of
.Mlnncsotn scorn 'to be especially weak this
season. Tlie line lacks weight and none
of tho candidates for position on the leant
seems nble to get Into tho game. It was
but a few days ago that tho university men
met tho High school youngsters and It was
only by n scratch that It was not' defeated.
There wn3 not a moment during tho
progress of the gamo thot tho ball was not
in the 'varsity 4orrltory, anil had It not
boon for ono or two unlucky nccldents tho
High-school lads would havo scored." The
game gave Dr. Williams, the coach of thq
team, n line on the possibilities of his men,
however, nnd since that tlmo he has been
bending his energies townrd developing
them along the lino of n swift game. Ho
has seon.the futility of attempting to mnko
his playors u team of line buckers, as they
are too light for Hint stylo of play, but ho
hopes to bring thorn to u point where they
will make u creditable showing on account
,of their snnppy work. Whether ho will
surceod In doing this ts nt least problemat
ical. Last week tho 'varsity men met and de
feated tho team from McAllister college by
a scoro of 0,3 to 0. On tho face of It, this
looks as though tho university team had
been making progress since It met the High
school boys. As a matter of fact, however,
tho Presbyterians have never been able to
play tho gnmo n little hit and It's a ten to
ono shot that tho High school hoys could
kIvo them cards ami spades aud then win
nine times out of ten.

PALAVER OF THE PUGILISTS
I.oenl Intorext In tho I'lulitlim Cnmp
Conteretl I ion the (in lloltteen
Sin I Hi nnd (innluer.
Omaha followers of tho pugilistic gamo
wero much Interested last week In the bout
between Tim Callahan and Oscar Gardner In
Philadelphia Monday night. This Interest
was tho tuoro nctlve, naturally, because of
tho fact that Oardner will be In Omaha
October 22 to meet H. Smith, the local col
ored lad, who Is touted as n comer by many
devotees of tho game whoso opinions are
worth something. That Smith will havo
almost nn equal chance in his go with Gard
ner Is an opinion strengthened by reason of
Gardner's showing In this last light.
Callahan and Gardner fought twenty
roundi to a draw over In Paterson last No
vember, but In their last meeting six rounds
ot rapid lighting rnmo near losing tho light
for Gardner. Cnllahan bad tho best of
the fighting throughout, taking the offensive
In the very first round, and attempting to
forco tho fighting In face of a sprinter's race
Instituted by tho "Omaha Kid." Tho bal
ntico ot tho rounds until tho sixth were
compnrtlvely tame, and In the Inst the
only feature was clever ducking nnd hug
ging on tho part ot Gardner, which ap
parently saved hltn from a knockout.
Gardner has several moro lights on his
Imuds before ho meets the Omaha won
der and will come to that fray In tiptop
condition, although his weight will, ac
cording to tho terms ot tho agreement, be
slightly In excess ot his usual fighting heft.
Tho two men are to weigh In on the nfter
noon ot tho fight nt 122 pounds, which Is
from five to seven pounds more than Gard
ner Is accustomed to. Smith will profit
by this clause of tho agreement, slnco ho
can train down to n fine point, getting him
self Into perfect fighting trim, uud still
mnko tho weight easily.
In tho tlmo Intermediate between this
nnd tho night of tho light Smith will de
vote himself diligently to his training and
pi eposes to bo In shapo to put up tho fight
of his life. It enn easily bo understood
bow Important this match Is for the colored
lad, who Is now comparatively unknown, his
recent telling defeat of Australian Hilly
Murphy being tho only event that has evel
caused him to bo known outside of the con
lines of this bailiwick. Smith Is confident
of being able to make a good showing for
himself, nnd while not claiming that he will
bo victorious he promises his friends that
ho will be fighting all the time he Is In
tho ring, nnd thnt Gardner will appreciate
hat ho has been "up agin somuting" when
tho bout is over.
Manager Spud Farrlsh. who Is looking
after tho arrangements for this bout, will
havo the mnteh pulled off In some conveni
ent and suitable place, where a ring, com
ing up to the requirements of regulation,
aud a well-arranged amphitheater can bo
erected. Judging from tho Interest now
being tnken In the forthcoming event, both
by Omaha sporting men nnd thoso living
In nearby cities, tho attendance will bo so
largo that tho revival of the fighting game
will be accomplished for nil time to come.
Already Manager Farrlsh has n match nr
rnuged between thoso two clever welter
weights, Charlie Hums of Cincinnati nnd
Kid Parker of Denver, which will come off
about tho 1st of November. He Is nego
tiating now with several top-notchcrs In
heavyweight circles nnd a card between n
pair of the big fellows will bo next after
tho Durns-Pafkcr fray.
"Mysterious" Dllly Smith Is evidently
losing his mystery. Last Monday night a
sound trouncing was administered him by
Joe Walcott. the black man from the Hnr
badoes. At every stogo of the fight Wal
cott proved himself to be Smith's superior.
Ho fought him all over the ring, landed at
will and at tho end of tho ninth round
Smith had received so much severe punish
ment that ho complained of his left hand
being bad nnd wanted to quit.
Johnnie Whlto of New York, the referee
refused to nllow him to do so nnd In tho
tenth round Wulcott wont at Smith hammer
and tongs, administering terrific right mid
left swingH In tho stomach nnd head. Smith,
who had fought foul In some of tho earlier
rounds, realizing that ho was no match for
Walcott, deliberately fouled him by hold
ing, wheroupon ho was disqualified nnd sent
to his corner by the referee and Walcott
was declnrcd tho winner.
Terry McOovorn, tho Invlnclblo feather
weight champion, has added another em
ployment to his list, his latest role being
that of a uowsboy. Thcro was no Jest nor
stage glair. our about this occupation, either,
for Terry got right out In tho crowds In
dlffcront parts of Now York last Monday
nnd sold his papers with a rapidity that
caused great bundles to disappear as by
nuiglc. He was doing this for tho bonotlt
of tho Onlvcslon flood sufferers.
His appearance' In tho rolo ot newsboy
wnH tho signal for many cheors und tho
champion was much embarrassed nt first.
He speedily rcgalnod his qomposuro and
wont to work with all tho zest of a veteran
In tho profession.
Just how many papers ho had sold In that
hour and a halt Is not known, but a valise,
which he carried, was comfortably filled
with bills and coin and It was thought over
00 had been realized. From uptown Mc
Govern was taken to tho Wall street dis
trict nnd, going upon tho floor of tho Stock
exchange, wan greeted wildly by tho brok
ers.

Tho fifth annual tournament of the Du
pont Gun club, which closed yesterday, was
a success In every particular. Local
sportsmen wero pleased beyond measure at
tho attendance of shooters from abroad
nnd they overlooked no opportunity to
make tho occasion nn enjoynbio one, their
hospitality being oxtended In right royal
mcaBtiro Tho only cloud which darkened
the horizon from nu Omaha point of view
was Frank Parmelco'a mlsrortuno In losing
tho Itepubllo cup In tho 100 live bird race
with J. A. H. Klllott of Kansns City. The
local man's defeat came under such dis
tressing circumstances that tho loss would
uot have been folt so keculy had It been
.accomplished by evident and unquestioned
superiority of bis opponent.
Ab It was, both men shot extraordinarily
well and tho termination of the contest
was a toss-up until tho match wns fliinlly
decided, rarmoleo's Ill-luck came- In los
ing his last bird, which was hit squarely,
but, being a healthy creature, soared away
and fell dead Just out of bounds. The re
sult was merely another Instnnce, howover,
of the uncertainty of a contest In which
two men of comparatively equal ability are
pitted,
Tho nctlvlty which the Nobraska Fish nnd
Game Protective association is taking to
ward the securing of proper gamo laws for
this state Is altogether likely to be at
tended by the desired results. Its member

pointed out by tho sportsmen In older to
enforce any law which may be passed 's
tho nppolntment of a game warden, who,
with tho assistance of his deputies, wilt

of season. Sportsmen who nro intensely
Interested In this matter express tho belief
that the next legislature will see tho wis
dom of passing a moro drastic game law,
with nn appropriation necessary to Its en
forcement by warden deputies. With this
end In view the association having the
matter In charge will leave no stone un

The members of the Omaha Whist club

months several challenges will bo sent out
nnd u number ncceptcd, gMng tho club
metnlers n chnnce to show what their sum
mer's reveries have done for them.
Double-dummy problems havo a greater
attraction for n certain class of whist play
ers thau propositions Involving perception
nnd tactics, says the Olobe-Detuocrat. When
theso problems Include all or a majority of
tho cards; tho time expended upon them is
wasted 09 far as any Improvement in whist
qualities Is concerned. They nro little bet
ter thnn mechanical puz7lcs, nnd thnt their
solution does not necessltnto tho exercise
of tho faculties called Into action by a deal
Is proved by tho fact that tho best problem
solvers nre often poor players, When the
problems consist of not more than slx-cnr.1
hands they nro susceptible of treatnifnt ns
endings, and In that enpaclty may bo the
most valuable of nil educational factors If
properly utilized.
The Hblllty to solve the mental whist
problems whlih so frequently lie perdu in
tho last few tricks ot n deal depends upon
practice, nnd tho opportunities nfforded for
lln acquisition In actual play are extremely
limited, because ot tho length of time need
ful to any but nn expert In making tho
calculations, Tho difficulty mny bo over

would bo possible ut the whist table by tho
uso of five-card endings, not as tho usual
double-dummy problems, but ns mental ex

and tho play worked out In the mind, as it

Tho committee on preliminaries of the
Omaha Cricket and Athletic club, com

stantial encouragement. Nearly 100 nnmes
of Intending members have nlready boon
secured. Tlie prospectus of tho club states
that when ISO names nre on the list tho
work of organization will begin. Tho pres
ent Indications uro that this number will

Messrs. Francla and Reynolds nro doing
qulto as well proportionately.
An option has been secured on a very
desirable tract ot land and In nil proba
bility an order will be placedMn tho course
ot tho next fortnight or three weeks for
plans for the now club house. This club
houso will be unlike anything In Omaha, or,
for that matter, any other western city. A
great deal of space will bo given up to
verandas. Thero will of course bo com
fortablo retiring rooms, shower baths,
bowling alley, etc.
One of tho games for which n largo num
ber of prospective members havo expressed
a preference is bowls not tho gamo as
ordinarily played, but "bowling on tho
green." This gamo has lately had n big
run In England nml 1b rapidly gaining
favor In tho eastern states. Two or threo
centuries ago It w.ih tho most popular ot
all -English outdoor sports. A number of
baso ball cranks havo expressed them
solvcs as being willing to Join tho now
club and tho probability Is that It will bo
"as strong Iu baso ball, tennis and bowls
as lu cricket.
As has already boon pointed out, thero Is
room In Omaha for an organization ot this
kind; an organization which, whllo not ex

for the nverago man, gives him nn oppor

a trip to Drlckson. Greeley county. In the
party with Mr. Nicholson was Mr. Stand-
even, foreman of tho Union Paclllc shops,
who caught a reven-poimd bass. The party
of six succeeded In landing nbout fifteen
flidi. They report prairie chickens scarce
and filghtened.
This condition Is reported from all parts
of the state, and. while It accounts for
somn very small bags, it proves thnt thoso
who get much game are good shots. Henry
Homnn says that when hu wns out In the
Verdigris valley the birds would rise at fifty
yards tho llrst day and beforo they left
they would leave tho ground seventy-five
yards nhead of the dog.
A good many consumptives would be

rellovcd by using Foley's Honey and Tar.

Dr. C. T. Harris, n 78-y car-old vegetarian
who last summer made the trip from Lon
don to Edinburgh nnd back alone ou a trl
cycle, has written. to tho London Lancet nn
Intel csllng account of his diet while on tho
rond. Ho says:
"As an uddendum to my letter In the
Lancet of August 25 the following par
tlculars mny bo of Interest: I did not eat.
any llcsh food In any shape nor did I even
eat eggs. Neither did 1 touch wine, beer
spirits or tobacco. I oto whole-meal bread
and biscuits when I could get them and a
llttlo cheoHe, but not much. During the
first fifteen days I never snt down to n
tablo for dlnnnr. I nto my food riding or
on n Jjank by tho roadside some bread and
cheeso with a tomato or banana, or both, or
Bomo bread nnd a bit of chocolate. Now
nnd then I got a glass of milk, but I think
I felt better without It. On only about
ten of tho thlrty-ono days did I havo any
vegetables nnd only on nbout r.uvcu days n
llttlo pudding, with or without fruit. My
breakfast was mostly weak tea or cocoa
and milk with bread and butter und mar
malado or Jam, My evening meal was
mostly cocoa and milk with bread nnd
butter nnd sometimes marmalade. On two
or threo occasions I had somo porridge and
once somo bread and milk.
"1 did not eat at stated times, but would
munch (my teeth having all disappeared)
somo bread or biscuit, with somo sweets or
chocolate, as I rodo nlong. I did not drink
a great deal as a rulo during tho day nnd
I havo ridden allfday without wiping my
face, so rrco was i irom sweating, mil
drank water Bomotlmcs pretty freely 1
tho night. I always took a Jug ot boiled
water to my bedroom and frequently, nfter
my first Bleep of about four hours aftor
which I generally felt qulto rofrcshed
would munch somo biscuit and perhaps)
somo chocolate and drink water as I felt
to need It. Then, nfter reading and think
Ing for n time, I would havo another sloop
I did not havo any aches or pains nor any
signs ot distress during tho whole tlmo
was awny.
"My object In taking this rldo was t
satisfy myself by personal experience that
good health nnd a full measure of vlgo
can bo maintained under total abstlncnc
from flesh, alcohol nnd tobacco, nnd that
too, with such an amount of excrclso a
was requisite for a considerable effort
Tho lesson derivable from my experience
Bceras to be that if wo fed ourselves more
thriftily nnd lived on simpler food we
should enjoy our lives moro completely
and retain our nctlvlty for a longer period
Tho Mndlpon Squnro garden races aro to bo
moro Important than ever nnd tho groatc
part of tho riders will attend tho garden
events and then go west to tako part In
tho races at the Golden Qato and up nnd
down tho coast In January, February, March
and April. Jack Prince will tako a party
west with motors to raco nt sovoral points
during October nnd he will bo on tbo ground
it wanted, for n big meet fnrther west. Tho
California proposition for tho first foil
months of tho yenr Is attracting the In
terest of all of tho rldors and It Is not Im
probable that qulto a party will ship from
Now York early In Jnnuary for the coast
Just at present tho men aro shifting round
and forming teams for the great six-day
race at Madison Square garden. Last yea
they were late nbout this, but this ycur It
Is going to bo different. The number of
teams In sight will precludo tho entry of
tho dub class, which filled up last year'
raco at the start and got In tbo way beforo
withdrawn. It is said that there will be
snlltup among the teams and that Miller
and Wallor, McEachori and Maya, Pierce
aud Glmm and Htlnson and Dabcoclc, all of
whom finished within tb first fir last sea
son. will be none of the teams this yenr
McKarlntul Intends to ride and all of these
men aro seeking for his good favor. Mc
Knrlsnd and Mcnnchern have been spoken
t as ono team.
It will bo remembered that n series of
cable dlsnatchrs from Prance ti few weeks
ngo, while the International cycle races wire
In progress, announced that tho Interna
tional Cyclists' union had proved falso to
the National Cycling association by refusing
to debar from competition on French tracks
National Cycling association rider who
was suspended for alleged dishonesty and
at the same tlmo was under a line of $100.
This report was untrue nnd ns. lo tho con
trary, the International Cyclists' unlou did
ustain tho National Cycling association,
this correction should bo made, says the
New York Sun. The suspended cyclist was
Orlando Stevens, tho team mate of Floyd
McParlnnd. And ho was suspended for
having participated In n private match race
wlih Jay Katon on the Vnllsburg cycle track,
Newark, N. J., contrary to the National
Cycling association rules.
It hns been often remarked that the great
est sufferers from punctures have frequently
been those riders who took the most pre
cautions agnlnst them, while the most dar
ing and apparently the most cureless riders
have been the ones to escape with tires un
harmed. For example. If tbo country road
mender has been at work nnd left a patch
of broken stones covering the entire road
bed tho reckless rider will plunge boldly
ncross It and usually escape without a
puncture, whllo the careful cyclist, who
slows down nnd Wriggles from one side to
tho other In the effort to escape particularly
vicious looking specimens, thus covering
three feet of the obstruction to tbo other j
rider's two. Is likely to reach the other side
with at least one puncture, and sometimes
more.
Tho fact Is that when compelled to ride
over nn obstruction of any kind It Is far I '.m.hpVim v,l:, l'.VAN,V':i: l,,b"1,ihi ;l,1'
better to ride straight and thus bring only I or any exu rii'il nppcTrumc,. or" tlV- .1N
the trend of tho tire, which Is tlw thickest I ,n'i' whatever A treatment that lit mnr
part. In contact with tho daugerdus ma
tcrlul. Tho twisting action of the wheel
lu trying to pick a way through tends to
bring tho thinner sides of the tire In con
tact with the obstructions nnd thus to In
vito punctures.
Hob Holt, it l'J-yenr-old messenger boy
of Detroit, returned homo last week, liming
completed a tour of nearly 2001 mil s
n-wheel. lie started out June SO last, tode
htr.ugh tho eastern cities, crossed the At
lantic from Iloston and toured r-uglund,
Scotland nnd Ireland. "'I remained In
Llvtrpool threo days," ho said In relating
his experiences, "tuklng iu the historic
sights und noting other places of Interest
London I visited next, and frem thero I
started on u trip through Se t'aud nnd
Ireland. Tho roads far surpassed Ih Be
ot this country, but the people arc Jun
he opposltu nnd show no haspl nllty. Some
rtfused to answer mo when I spoke to
them and every ninety-ninth person would
be nbout tho only ono I could draw out
any Information from regarding th roads.
Living was cheap, however, niuJi cheaper
than In Amerlcn, nnd hero, too, 1 had
phnty to oat. I spent about three weeks in
Grent Urltaln and rccrosncd tb" ocean on
the pasaunger bout Sachem, working in the
capacity of waiter. The brat put up nt
Hcston. From there I wheeled thr ugh h
atntes of Massachusetts and Maine, v s ting
all the big cities. 1 went a llttlo fur h -r
south on my way homo nnd visited Phlla-
lclphla and Cincinnati. From ClnclnrnM
I rede to Cleveland and Toledo nnd then
came home."
What Impressed Holt tho most In Rnc-
bind was the fact that tho Kngllsh po pie
iv wye for ves and this nuzzled the De
troit boy. They uso tho woids blooming
and bloody In every sentence nlso. says
Holt.
AVhen n wood rim Is split for six in h-s
or more, as often happens, few riders or
repair-shop men nttempt even a temporary
repair. Yet ono mny easily be mnde If a
piece of tin enn be gotten, nn Is urually the
case. Cut tho tin Into n Btrlp nb-ut nn Inch
wide nnd long enough to wrap about tho
rim the whole length of the split af'er th
tiro Is removed. Wrap It tlgh'ly. and se-
curo the ends with stout lacks, then tako
a hammer nnd pound It down Into tho e-n-cavity
of tho rim, which will draw tho
parts closely together. After roilne ng tin

Hnvlng led tho way with four nnd three-
wheel motor vehicles, the French are now
endeavoring to dupllcnto their success with
motor bicycles. A new mnchlne, for which
great claims nro mnde. has the back pcrtlon
or ttio rrnmo triangular in form, giving a
very long wheel base and allowing tho en
gine to bo mounted In a vertical position,
thus permitting tbo driving belt to pass
alongside tho chain without Interfering
wit u it. ino vehicle complete is said to
weigh eight pounds and to havo a maxi
mum speed capacity of forty miles nn hour.
The simplest way to replace a chain Is
to hold ono end on tho largo sprocket nnd
enrry tho other around tho smaller
sprocket and back to tho largu sprocket,
where tho two ends aro brought together.
Tho teeth of tho sprocket engaging tho
chain will hold It In place, nnd the freo
'Ink enn easily bo hold In placo whl'o tho
llttlo bolt Is passed through it and so
curcd. An argument In favor of n low gear Is
that It gives n greater control of wheel,
preventing sldo slip In wot places nnd
giving nddltlonnl security In nn emergency
when It la necessary to stop or sturl
quickly.
