Snelling Troops
Win Most Points
in Army Field Day
Whisky, Army Horse, Does
Tricks and Hurdles Table
at Which Women Are
Seated.
Like most everything else the
army had a day.
The day in this instance happened,/
to be a field day and took place yes
terday.
Everything started with a mam
moth military parade at 10 in the
morning. After the soldier boys had
marched about the business district
they repaired to the Ak-Sar-Ben field
where the athletic events were sched
uld to take plac.
More than 10,000 persons gathered
at the field to witness the event.
The grandstand was packed and
many stood on the ground. All of
the available space on the south and
east sides of the grandstand was
taken up with parked automobiles.
Troops from all parts of the Sev
enth Army Corps area took part in
the events of the day. The Third
Infantry from Fort Snelling man
aged to win enough points to secure
first place. Of all possible points
they took 75 while the Seventeenth
infantry, Fort Crook, took second
place with 37 points.
There were no records broken in
any of the athletic events but the
men showed the stuff they were
made of when they ran until they
fell exhausted rather then give in.
Twice the1 winner of a foot race was
carried from the field.
Monkey Drill Squad Thrills.
The greatest thrills of the day,
however, were provided by the
mounted troops. The heavy artillery
showed what going into action neces
situated early in the afternoon. They
drilled and wheeled and maneuvered
about the infield and were rwarded
with a good applause at the termin
ation of their “act.”
When the Fourteenth Cavalry crack
monkey drill squad came on to the
track the grandstanders began to sit
up and take notice. The eight men,
riding with surcingle and blanket, dis
mounted and mounted while the
horses went at a lope. They dis
mounted snd then vaulted over the
swiftly moving horses. They dis
mounted as their mount leaped over
a hurdle and did all the other things
that every cavalryman is taught to
do a# soon as he is assigned to a
mount. The tricks looked impossible
to many of the spectators who had
never gotten closer to a horse than the
betting ring of a race track.
The three trained horses. Marshal
Ney, Red Dog and Whisky, per
formed^ to perfection. Marshal Ney
and Red Dog were content to do a
little fancy hurdling but Whisky
added a few tricks. He stretched
himeelf out as though dead at the
command of Lieutenant Hazzelrlg, his
flder, leaped over u flaming hurdle,
cleverly cleared * table at which five
women were sitting, danced and gen
erally performed. Whisky is a mem
ber of the army and reputed to he
the most Intelligent horse that t'ncle
Sam owns. He is to he ridden in the
polo games Thursday and Friday.
I The day was considered a great
suoeess and steps are to be taken to
make it an annual affair. The Third
infantry took most of the prizes this
'time and now the Seventeenth regi
ment wants a chance to get even.

Fort Worth Refuses
' to Play With Bears
New Orleans, Oct. 2.—The Fort
Worth baseball club today declined a
proposal of the management of the
Oklahoma City club, champions of the
Western league this year, for a post
season series such as was played by
Mobile and Tulsa last year, in the
event that Fort Worth wins the
Dixie championship series from New
Orleans.
"It means too much baseball,”
Manager Atz said. "We want to keep
the Dixie championship in Dixie."
Including two full teams which may
be used by Coach Clark against
Creighton in an effort to pick out
ttyise candidates which are showing
the most promise.
The outstanding star on the K. IT.
squad this year is possibly Charlie
Black, captain of the Jayhawker
eleven. Biark has played on Kansas
teams at end for the past two seasons,
but this year Coach Clark shifted him
to quarterback and he gives promise
of developing into one of the valley’s
best signal callers.
Harold Burt, who will be remember
ed from last year's team, will possi
bly be the best grout d gainer on the
Kansas team. Hurt is being used at
half, having bean charged from full
to allow Smith, a new man In the
Kansas line-up, to occupy that posi
tion. Smith Is a former Pittsburgh
Normal man and he will do practical
ly all the punting and dropkicking for
K. U.
Other backfleld men include Alex
Hodges of Kansas City, Mo,; Walter
Shannon and Harold Collier of last
year's squad.
In the line Coach Clark has prac
tically two full teams. On end is Max
Krueger, a player who was shifted
from the backfield to the wing; Mel
vin Griffin, a 2 year letter man; John
McLean from last year's team, and
Joe Pleasant, a new husky lad who
gives promise of playing in some of
the Creighton game. At tackle is
Mosby, Davidson and ‘‘Babe'' Smith,
all men of experience. Coach Clark
has a wealth of material at guard with
"Chub” Fraker, who tips the scales
at 250 pounds; Fred Holderman. who
weights 225 pounds; K. H. Haley, 2
year letter man. C. Freeze, who has
had considerable experience. John
Lonborg is slated to again hold down
the center position with the assistance
of Virgil Severe and T. O. Sanborn.

NEWYORKTURF FANS
English derby winner here to rare America's leading 3
year-old becomes nervous when thousands overrun Cosden
quarters in effort to gain closeup view ot horse. Pride
of English turf in splendid condition, says trainer.
CAUSE PAPYRUS TROUBLE
New York, Oct. 2.—Only at the
appointed hours when the colt will be
taken for exercises will curious thou
sands be permitted to view Papy
rus, English derby winner, at his
quarters at Belmont Park, it was an
nounced today. This action was tak
en after Sunday crowds had fairly
overrun the J. S. Cosden quarters in
their efforts to gain a close-up view
of the horse that will race America's
leading 3-year old for international
honors, October 20. The excitement
of the day had caused Papyrus con
siderable nervousness, Trainer Basil
Jarvis declared In explaining his ac
tion.
Hereafter the colt will be exercised
at 8 a. m. and 4:15 p. m., he declared.
This will lake the form of a brief
walk up amd down the track until
the colt has accustomed himself to
the feel of the dirt track. In about
a week, Jarvis said. Papyrus would
indulge in short 'practice gallops.
These will be gradually increased as
the day for the race approaches.
All hands at the stable are agreed
that the colt la In splendid condition
and such a noted authority as John
E. Madden was quoted this morning
as saying that the ocean trip and
climatic conditions had not proven a
fcig handicap to Papyrus.
Yes, Wild Bull of Pampas
• Has No Wife-Slip of Pen
New York, Oct. 2.—Yes, the "Wild Bull of the Pampas" has no wife, j
Yes, Buis Angel Flrpo, the Argentine giant who almost became heavy
weight boxing champion of the world but didn't, has no Intention of be- *
omlng an American citizen.
As soon as he saw in newspapers today that he was entered on
a naturalization blank yesterday when applying for his first American
citizenship papers as "married,” Buis telephoned the newspapers and ex
plained that was a slip of the pen. His faithful interpreters had marked
the blank correctly, but the stenographer was so thrilled in transcribing
it that she made the senos the possesor of a senora.
Also the interpreter explained, Senor Flrpo, meant only to pay a
tourtesy to the American people by taking out citizenship papers and
he did not know that to vote here he had to give up his Argentine
citizenship. So, Senor Flrpo will remain an Argentine, the interpreter savs,

Fighters Begin
to Arrive Here
There wilt be quite an influx of
pugilistic stars Into Omaha today.
Klrst conies Billy Well*. the
debonair Knglish welterweight, fresh
from his triumph over Joe Slrnonltch
of Butte In Milwaukee Wednesday
night.
Bermond says Billy is coming to
Omaha to engage in a 10-round ex
hibition of fisticuffs with Morrie
Schlalfer at the Auditorium October
8. Only a short time ago In Council
Bluffs Simonitch outpointed Schlalfer,
so that Wells' victory over the Butte
youth portends a rather strenuous
evening for Schlalfer next Monday.
It. is said Wells is coming to Oma
ha with the firm intention of rocking
Schlalfer to sleep. That has been
done only once in Merries career—
t»y Mickey Walker, the champion—
so If the report ts true Wells has cut
nut a sizeable task for himself. But
Wells Is peeved at Schlalfer. Still
ranking In his heart is that decision
Schlalfer won over him in an Omaha
ring a year ago. Wells believes the
referee made a vital mistake in giv
ing the derision to the Omaha fighter,
and he has high hopes of correcting
lhat mistake Monday night.
Other arrivals scheduled for today
are Connie Curry and Newsboy
Brown, both prominent residents of
Sioux City.
Curry and Brown are to clash In
the seml-windup to the Wells Schlalfer
mill, ahd indications are that the
quarrel will bo a spirited one.
Curry and Brown have met before
and honors ended evenly. But In
their pjevlous fights no decisions
were given. Their Monday night Imt
tie will he their first, to a decision.
The town of Sioux City Is divided
between the two youngsters and It Is
expected that mote than 4<"i fans will
'•nine down the river for the lieul.

Miss Collet a Rare
Woman Golfer
. •
By C.R WTLANII RICE.
Miss Collett among women golfers
has set a mark so far that no male
has even approached.
In the last two years she has played
In 10 big tournament* replete with
first class talent.
She has won eight of these. The
list embraces the Women's cham
pionship, the North and South Cham
ptonshlp twice, the Eastern twice, the
Canadian championship and victories
at Belleair.
Miss Edith Cummings of Chicago
has given her the hardest fight and
Miss Cummings will be one of her
most formidable rivals on this next
occasion.
Miss Collett's rare consistency is
a remarkable achievement In a game
noted for sudden whir's of IncooeP
tency, even upon the part of great
male stars.
The wonder Is not that she can turn
in a 76 or a 77, but that she so rarely
goes above go in a hard match
Miss Colie!t will meet hard opposi
tion from Miss Cummings, Miss Stil
ling and others, but only fine golf
will stop her march.
Surpassing the Male.
It has been suggested here and
th-re in spirit that the female of the
■species, while capable of rare genius
at odd moments, lacks the consistency
of the male.
This hns been attributed to nerves
that wi re higher strung. Tills theory
may lie upset this week.
There is no pastime which lacks
consistency as consistently ns the
game of golf.
The masculine division hasn't had
a champion capable of repeating for
10 years In either the amateur or pro
fessional class
.At Westchester Rlltmore, In the
women's championship, Miss Glenns
• 'ollelt of Providence" is making a
sturdy effort to outclass the record
nf tin- opposite nr inimical sex while
outclassing her own.
And - nh inie golf will prevent
Mis.- Collet! from doing precisely this
thing.

" THEY haven't a
chance to get stale ’’
The first man who said his product “sold
like hot cakes” was simply hunting a new way
to say that it was always fresh. That’s the
way hot cakes have to be sold. A hot cake has
to be hot off the griddle or it isn’t worth eating.
And the sooner you get it after it leaves the
griddle the better it tastes.
The same thing is true of a cigar. If you
could always buy cigars that had just been
made you would be more certain of getting
a cigar that tasted right. So it is only common
sense to buy a cigar that you know never
stays in the cigar store very long.
I can promise you this is true of La Palina.
We are constantly building more factories.
Our force of workers grows larger every year.
Yet I always have on hand orders for more
cigars than we can make. Dealers sell La
Palina faster than we can produce them be
cause men buy them as fast as they are re
ceived in the store.
A stale cigar, no matter how fine it was
when first made, will not taste right. When
you buy a La Palina you get a cigar that sells
so fast, it hasn’t a chance to get stale.
