The Cornhusker braves worked at
the Stato farm last night and did
aomo scrimmago work for the first
time since they roughed it with tho
r
Ames aggregation in Omaha last Sat
urday Tho stiffening effects of that
exhausting struggle are growing loss
and lead apparent. YeBterday only
three of the fifteen players who par
ticipated in tho Ames game failed to
show up at practice. Those who did

Other Injuries.
Other members of tho team are also
suffering from injuries which were
contracted either at Omaha or at

Harry Minor 1b troubled with a pain

possible that such an aggregation of
stars would bo able to make a good
showing against the so far undefented
Cornhuskers.
Howevor, the Nebraska schedule Is
already tho hardest one Which has
been arranged In years and It 18 hnrd
ly probable that Coach Cole would
stand for tho aubstitution of ao hard
a game as tills for a contest as easy
as the Hastings game promised to be.
It is thought that the chances of in
juring some of his players so soon
before tho Wabash and Carlisle games
would prejudice Coach Cole against
tho idea. At present the mattor Is
undecided.

MISSOURI VS. KANSA8.
Tho rivalry between Missouri and
Kanaas over football la, in some degree
a survival of- tho border warfare be
tween tho two states during tho time
previous to tho civil war.
In 1854, when the race, for Kansas
between tljp anti-slavery and tho pro
slavery parties was made, Mlsaourl
was, yorx active, on the aide of tho
pro-afavery party. This jealoua 'spirit
between the "Border -Ruffians" and
thQy'Bickllemjbllcans" has, '-not on
tiroyj subsided,; fo each state Is en-
the other dj vision. Ench team in onch
division will play four games with
evory other team in Ita section.
