QRINNELL'8 STRENGTH.
Qrlnnoll loomB up stronger this
Boason than at any tlmo in rocont
years, and has mndo tho Nebraska
rootors juBt a little uncertain as to
what to expect In tho game thin
afternoon. Last fall tho Iowa team
came to Lincoln unheralded, and
sprung a noat surprlBo by holding
the Cornhuskers to a 4 to 0 score
in tho ilrst half. They have prac
jtically the same oleven thiB year and
it 1b this fact, when considered in
connection with tho reports about tho
poor playing of the Cornhuskorrf,
that has lod tho Nebraska students
to fear tho Hawkeyeu may bo able
to servo out some moro unpleasant
things today. y zT
It Is true that Qrlnnoll looks fully
as formidable as a year ago, but
ovon with that being truo there is
no cause for any uneasiness on the
part of Nebraskans about tho out
come. The CornhuBkorB are going
to win. No matter how poor a, show
ing they" have been making during
tho past two weeks, thoy are too
tstrong an cloven to go down to de
feat at tho hands of a light team

$3.50 no, now for a first class new

llko Grlnnoll. The beef and brawn
of tho CornhuBkers, who outway tho
.visitors Boveral pounds to the man,
is bound to year down tho plucky
little men from across tho Missouri.
Qrlnnoll is not likely to score, but,
at the host, it could nmko no moro
than one or two field goals, and prob-
'ably a touchdown. The team 1b not
jheavy enough to force tho Corn-
'huskers back of their own goal line
A touchdown, If made, muBt corao on
a run by some fleet ' Grinnoll man
who Is nolo to oludo all tho Nebraska
tacklers. Such a thing as this seems
improbable.
The Cornhuskers aro prepared for
just such a team as Grlnnell haB sent
here. They will bo ready to Btop
any ofthe tricks made possible un
der the reformed rules. Left End
Flanagan will' be watched by every
man on the team, and if no succeeds
in setting away for any great gain
He "will bo more of a. wonder than he
'la now looked upon as bejng.
. The size of the Nebraska score will
depend entirely on how well "King"'
Cole's machine Is working. If It 1b
in good shape, and running smoother
than in either of the two previous
games of the season, the score ought
to mount above thirty points. If
It Is operating no better than it has
bq far this season, tho number of
points will not' be hard to. count.
MINNESOTA AND AMES
TWO TEAM8 MEET ON NORTH
RUP FIELD THIS AFTERNOON.
NEBRASKA STUDENTS WATCH IT
Interest at This University Is Divided
Between Grinned Game and
Meeting of the Old Corn-
husker Adversaries.
The Minnesota-Ames strugglo at
Minneapolis this afternoon is holding
tho attention of the western foot
ball world. The Gophers will have a
great fight on their handa to keep
their position In gridiron circles. The
conference schools and Nebraska
know this well, and are listening im
patiently for tho first word from tho
land of Governor Johnson and flour
that will toll of tho result
Amen 1b confldont of defeating Min
nesota and Is going to make as great
a fight as was put up against tho
CornhuskerB on Nebraska field last
November, when 3,000 Nebraska root
ers froze their spinal columns with
tho cold chills that tho fast playing
tho visitors caused to creep into
tho body of overy man who was pres
ent. The Gophers know Ames is strong
and that thoir own team Is weak, but
then thoy feel that they will win In
somo way. Thoy are going into tho
gamo to fisht blindly and hope to
win out.
Minnesota May Win.
Nebraska meets Minnesota next
Saturday and hopes to win. But they
want to do thiB when the Gophers
hnv-3 a lean sore and for that reason
would llko to see Ames defeated to
day, Chicago
Chicago, Oct. 9. Coach "Jimmy"
Sheldon and hlB hoosler football team
will have no chance of piling up sur
prise scores on a team of "Bcruba"
when they meet the maroons tomor
row at Marshall field. Coach Stagg
decided last night to start his regu
lars against Indiana after the fresh
mon had showed up the substitutes
badly in pratice, using Indiana plays.
The freshmen were kept from scoring
only by the luck of the "scrubs" on
several occasions and It waB all the
varsity candidates could do to score
a single touchdown.
Only three of the regulars wore
used. Iddlnga played at left half,
with Worthwlne moved from left
guard to full back, while Page was
tried at quarter back for a few min
utes. Rogers ran the team at quarter
after Page was taken out. Rogers.
Elliott and HirBchl are tho only subs
who are likely to get into the Indi
ana game.
The Indiana delegation will arrive
this evening. There wil bo no party
banquet tonight, as Hutchinson hall
has been placed at tho disposal of a
religious organization for the evening.
A masB meeting will be held at Kent
theatre this morning at 10:30 o'clock.
Schommor may be kept out of tho
game by the injury that has been
bothering him since last Saturday.
He strained his side badly in the last
play againBt Purduo. Palk, tho other
hospital patient, will be on the side
.linos, Stagg anounced.
Wisconsin.
Madison, Wis., OL 9. Unwilling to
take any chances of having any of his
men injured before tho first gamo of
tho season, Coach Barry confined the
fpotball practice at Wisconsin today
through a long drill, to perfect its of
fensive work. As' a result of the
vanity's Work In tho last "three days
of scrimmage, tho feeling Is that
Lawrence. College will have a hard
timo making rfn impression on the
line,
An Iricldent of tho practice today
was the appearance of Stelhm, ineli
gible, at center. Quarter Back
Springer haB worked off his scholas
tic condition and is eligible and Barry
had him working on the seond eleven.
On ihe varsity Barry used the follow
ing line-up, which is expected will bo
tho pnme as he will send In against
Lawrence:
Left end, Captain Rogers; left
tackle, Boyle; left guard, Messmer;
center. Arpln; right guard, Dreutzer;
right tackle, Osthoff; right end, Dean;
quarter back, Moll; left half back,
Culver; right half back, Mucklestone;
full back, Wilce.
Two now men reported for the
freshmen squad today, Vehmeier, for
mer half bock on Dixon college, who
weighs 160 pounds, and Langrandeur,
a 182-pounder, who played tackle on
St. John's College, Minnesota, last
year.
Michigan
Ann Arbor, Mich., Oct. 9 In fifty
mlnuteB of play this afternoon tho
regulars, with n shifting llno-up,
ripped up the scrappy scrubs and
when tlmo wbb finally called had
registered six touchdowns and four
goals, .to two touchdowns by the subB.
Emus was again in uniform at left
and showed vast improvement over
hlB work of two days ago. Douglas
wns vicious and got away with most
of the forward passes used in the
practice. DavidBon In tho fore part of
the afternoon was practicing punting
under Fitzpatrick's direction. Next
week it is said that Yost will send
Davis In to the right half and that
Allardice will go to right end to take
the place of Don Greene, the "prep
school" end who made a sensation in
the Case game. The only fault to
find with the rumor Is "What will be
come of Greene?"
Iowa.
Iowa City, Iowa, Oct. 9. H. R,
Grots, star tackle on last year's
eleven, returned to the university yes
terday and will re-enter the college of
medicine. He has arranged for spe
cial examinations and expects to be
eligible within a few days for the
games this fall. The reason, for tho
delay In the big tackle's return was
tho fact that his uncle . left him- in
charge of stone quarries. In Dubuque.
- The upperclaBsmen at the University
of Missouri are not turning out for
class teams.
I41.0. Two Stools I4IS.O.
HAD BIG TIME AT CALIFORNIA.
Hundreds Participated. In Spontane
ous Rally.
Seniors, juniors, sophomores, fresh
men, "Profs," all turned out at Cali
fornia Tuesday night at tho summons
of a spontaneous Oaki arising from
among the fraternity houses at the
corner of Durant avenue and Bow
ditch street. Some one yelled
"P-rade," and soon Yell.Leader "Bob"
Pitch had four scoe men In line
lockBteppIng up Durant. Two by two,
four by four, dozen by dozen the
men came piling out of the various
houses and by the time the line had
circled from Haste and College back
to the Delta Kappa Epsilon house
there wore four lines of cheering men
stretching out for a distance of a
block or more.
After parading about the campus,
gathering additional marchers at
every round, tho leaders led the lines,
by this time six in number and two
blocks long, to the west bleachers of
California Field for the final wlndup.
Here everyone and everything was
cnuorea and by many different modes
of activity, the students vented their
defiance of ""Stanford University.

NO ESPERANTO HERE

Easily Learned Phonetic Tongue
Based on New Principles Prom
ises to Become Language
of Cosmopolitans.
EBperanto, the artificial universal
world-language, haB yet to find n
place In the Nebraska curriculum.
Although numerous other colleges,
and some of these western ones, have
given the new language a place in
their courses of instruction, Nebraska
university offers no study of esper
anto. Esperanto, the language of the cos
mopolitan of the future, is something
uniquo in the history of the world.
Founded not on tho principle of other
languages which developed gradually
from dialects of well-established
tongues, esperanto wob sprung upon
a people at first cynical as a full
fledged language.
Adopted in Colleges.
Making but slow progress for the
first few years, esperanto found
enemies among many university men
both in Europe and America. Such
a radical departure was pot consist
ent with the ideas of the strict stylist,
but the demand for a universal tongue
became so Insistent that the new
language has of late made rapid
headway.
Courses of instruction are now in
the curriculums of numerous Amer
lean colleges, Wisconsin being one of
the latest to supply the demand.
Clubs are being formed to further the
study by reading circles. One of
these was recently organized In
Omaha and there is a national feder
ation of such organizations. Ab the
new language spreads it i8 every
where meeting with a welcome that
grows as lty advantages are realized.
Esperanto is a phonetic language.

ing does not trouble tho student. Or,
If the spelling is learned first, tho

By combining the word elements of
several of the leading tongues, esper

anto can acquire a speaking knowl
edge of the language in one-fifth the
time that is required to learn any
other tongue equally well. English,
French, German, Russian, Spanish
esperanto. Tho grammar Is abbre
viated to the extreme, the acquire

An Artificial Thing.
The disadvantage of esperanto""ls
Its lack of practical utility at the
present time, it is an artificial thing.
As a language study It has many of
the advantages of the old languages,
but not all of them by any moans!
since esperanto Is a success largely
because It abandons much of tho" In
flection and conjugation which make
German and Latin valuable culture
studies.
But one cannot communicate with
others to any extent by means of
esperanto. The number of people
who use it fluently are exceedingly
few, especially in this country. The
advantage for tho man learned in
esperanto lies in the fact that It Is
quite likely to become In tho future
a common Bourse of lnter-communi-cutlon
between men of different na
tlons. There is a flojd open for such
a language. The question is. whether
or not esperanto satisfies all the con
ditions, All students of the University of
