uphoncd to the Kansas board which

charged with professionalism had re
futed the allegation In affidavits and
that Kansas should withdraw the pro
test If the game was to bo played.
The board at Lincoln received the
following message from Lawrence :
"Under the circumstances wo waive
objections to playing Homier and Wil
son , but still request the affidavits , "

lows :
"Will come. Affidavits on way. "

THANKSGIVING TURKEYS HIGH
With the Holiday Two Weeks Away
the Birds are Now Selling at
Twenty Cents a Pound.
Omaha , Nov. 10. Judging from
present Indications the Thanksglv
Ing turkey Is going to cost a little
more this year than over before.
Although It Is yet a little early In
the season to Judge accurately , loca
commission men say that all reports
Indicate a decided shortage In the
supply. A few turkeys are coming In
but not In sufficient quantities to lower
or prices.
With the exception of last season
which was a high year for turkeys
the birds In the past have usually soli
for about 12 cents per pound alive
or 1C cents per pound dressed. Las
year the supply was short and prices
went as high as 18 conta for the
Thanksgiving trade.
This year , with Thanksgiving al
most two weeks off , turkeys are al
ready retailing at 20 cents a pound
While prices usually increase as
Thanksgiving approaches , yet loca
commission men are of the opinion
that the present prlco la so prohlb
Itlvo that It will reduce the demand
to such an extent that prices will no
advance to more than 22 cents n
the most.

How a Man Named Allen and His
Bride , Who Were in Butte From
Anoka , Were Bothered by the Cruel
People at the Oxford Hotel.
[ From Momlnv's Dnlly. ]
"That man Jonas , " said a commer
cial traveler of Lincoln who came
In from the north nnd Sundayod in
Norfolk , "Is about the best ever in
his line of business. He's the follow
who stands at the general delivery
window at the postolllce and ho Is
certainly a wonder. Ho has a repu
tation all along the line with the
boys nnd If ho isn't Just the best there
Is In the state I don't want a cent.
"Three weeks ago I came Into
Norfolk for the first time. I called
at the window and got three letters.
Then I wont away and he didn't see
mo again until today. I walked Into
the office , followed the long line Into
place and finally got up to the win-
dow. Without a minute's hesitation
Mr. Jonas called mo by name nnd
said , 'Hero are two letters for you. '
He had never seen mo In his llfo but
onco. It had been three weeks in
the meantime and thousands of other
strangers had passed that window.
I bad heard of him on the road
among the boys , but I really didn't
take much stock In tholr stories.
"The boys toll mo that he will pass
through n hotel corridor and will
spot every man In the room by his
"Mght name even men whom bo has
'lover ' seen but once and that in the
rush that Is always on at the general
delivery department. Why in towns
out in the country I have to toll them
my name every single week and that
nan Is n wizard if there over was
one. "

there Is some question as to your
marriage license. " So Allen came
down In the cold , cold air and reg

A writer In the Port England Mir
ror , a newspaper published by luna
tics In an asylum located at Gra-
hamstown , South Africa , gives the
following reasons for his detention :
" 1 met a young widow with n
grown stop-daughter and the widow
married me. Then my father , who
was a widower , met my stepdaughter
ter and married her. That made my
wife the mother-in-law of her fathor-
ln-lnw , and made my step-daughter
my mother and my father my stop-
son. Then my step-mother the stepdaughter -
daughter of my wife , had a spn.
That boy was , of course , my brother ,
because ho was my father's son. Ho
was also the son of my wife's step
daughter and , therefore , her grand
son. That made mo grandfather to
my step-mother. Then my wlfo had
a son. My mother-in-law , the step
sister of my son , is also his grand
mother , because he Is her stop-son's
hllrt. My father Is the brother-in-
law of my child , because bis step
sister is my wife. 1 am the brother
of my own son , who Is also the child
of my stop-grandmother. I am my

A Little Loss

a free discharge of mucus and so \
loosens the cough. It heals the In

Is accomplished without a grain of
