Two
he Council Uluffs High school cjovcn do-
fiotcd the Woodbine Normal school In a
rattling game of foot ball at the Field club
park yestcrdny afternoon by a score of 26
to 0. Two twcnly-flvc-mlnnte halves were
played. Since thu opening game with
Omaha , two wceku ago , the boys have been
working hard , and have developed some of
the strongest team play ever Been In this
city. The visitors lined up at least ten
poundu heavier than the little fellows , but
were- outrun , outpuntcd , outplayed In buck
ing the line. Interference , tackling , and
though they put up a plucky struggle , could
never get even near the coveted goal line.
Thu kick went to the home team In the
first half. Dick Stewart , who has had the
benefit of playing In the schools In the
cast , took Mather's position .nt fullback In
thlx half. Woodbine carried the ball for
a short gain on the kick. It went to the
High school on a fumble , Anderson getting
the ball. After a five-yard gain It was lost
to Woodbine In the same manner. Here the
visitors wcro played to a standstill. On
the first scrimmage they lost seven yards
and failed to make up half the distance In
the remaining downs. For Council Dluffs
W. I'ardy was sent through the line for a
couple of yards , and a second later circled
the left end for fifteen yards more. Stew
art and Flammant were sent at the Wood
bine line for small gains , when W. Pardy
got around left end for the flrst touchdown.
Flammant fatted to kick out. Score : 4 to 0.
Another kick-off by Woodbine netted them
forty yards , which II. I'ardy cut down bj
a five-yard gain before ho was tackled.
"Drother DIM" came next , and cleaned up
nothing less than seventy yards In the long
est run of the game. He came down the
field with a mill of Interference churning
off the Woodbine hustlers. The entire High
school team was In the 'mtxup , Stewart
then pounded out live yards through center ,
Anderson rolled around center for three , and
Stewart's fumble was recovered by Hutchi
son with a galrv , The ball was lost on the
eight-yard line on a fumble. .Woodbine
made a slight rally at this point , and John
son got away from left end for fifteen yards.
Flammant managed to down the next Nor-
mnlltc eight yards behind the line , and
a fumble soon gave the homo team the pig
skin. Stewart , Anderson and Flammant
carried the ball to the ten-yard line , when
the rabbit foot trick was worked like a
charm , and H. Dallcy trotted behind the
goal posts bcforo the embryo teachers knew
what was up. Stewart promptly kicked
goal. Score : 10 to 0.
Woodbine's kick-off was taken by Stewart
for ten yards. Flammant and I'ardy worked
the criss-cross for live yards , nnd It. Dallcy
nnJ Stewart the rabbit , foot trloft for eight
iiioic. Tackle plays by Anderson and Knox
netted fifteen yards. II. I'ordy took twelve
more , when a fumbled kick lost the High
school ten yards and the ball. Tlmo was
up , leaving the ball on the center line.
If the first half had been a surprise , the
second was still more of one. Stewart was
badly hurt In the last scrimmage In the
first half , and Mathers took his place. Ho
might be rightly called the star line buckcr
In this neck of the woods. His heavy play
Eoon began to toll , as he was the only one
of the homo team equal to the Normalltcs
In weight. Woodbine's kick-off netted them
thirty yards. After a few short gains by
Council Bluffs , they got the ball back on
downs , only to lose It In the same way a
mlntito later. The crack High school
tackles , Anderson and Knox , rolled about
center for thirteen pegs. Tardy galloped
out eight more , rested , while Mathers tele
scoped center for five , and then followed
suit , Mathers going him two better In his
next plunge. Flammant got away round
right for three cross-bars , and W. Pardy
went the other way for one and a half. This
hud been a constant batter , without a rest
or a Hlgnal , and the farmers couldn't get
on their feet. After pcundlng center for a
three and six yard gain , Mathers broke
through for a touchdown. R. Dalley failed
In his try at goal. Score , 14 to 0.
Woodbine made another good kick-off.
This was the only way they got down Into
the enemy's'fluid nt all. Mathers caught the
ball on the dead run and ploughed through
without Interference for over twenty yards.
It wus one of the remarkable plays of the
game. Four downs gave Woodbine a faint
hope. Flammant checked this , however ,
by tackling Prltchard for an eight yard loss.
A punt netted the visitors no gain. Then
began another of the great series plays by
the High school. Mathers was fresh , and
ho took the brunt of the battle In line buck
ing. Assisted by gains made by Anderson ,
Knox , Hutchlnson , tlio ball had been car
ried to the twenty-seven yard line. Here
"Old I loss" Mathers got away from right
end. For the entire distance ho waded
through the Normalltcs , giving no less than
three of them some of the prettiest straight-
arms ever seen on the gridiron , avoiding
nnd rolling out of as many tackles and
landing thu ball between the goal posts. II.
Dalley kicked goal. Score , 20 to 0.
Woodbine's usual kick-off was promptly
gobbled by Pardy and cut down two chalk
marks. After a few short gains , Mathers
and H. Dalley worked the rabbit's foot trick
again for twenty yards. "Simply out of
sight and something new , " yelled the crowd.
Mathers followed this by a good punt for
thirty yards , Flammant again went through
the Normalltcs , and got the man with thu
ball five yards behind the line. This loss
was Increased eight moro yards before the
visitors lost the ball. W. Pardy galloped
through the mass of acrlmmagcrs and landed
his second score. H. Dalley kicked goal.
Score , 20 to 0.
About live minutes wcro left nnd a slight
rally by Woodbine left the ball In the cen
ter of the field when time was called.

Hon. George D. Perkins , the editor and
proprietor of the Sioux City Journal , and
member of congrcus from the Tenth district ,
entertained an audience at republican head
quarters last night. Ills keen wit and
bright Intelligenceguvo n charm to an adroit
and scathing arraignment of the democrat * .
Ho Is a pleasant speaker , and has a way
of withholding the point of each sentence
until ho reaches the last word that keeps
the audience nlert.
Ho wan Introduced by Chairman Hart In
Mr. Marl's happiest manner , and by the
time the Introductory remarks were con
cluded , there was not a person In the room
who did not feel thoroughly acquainted
with Mr. Perkins.
Mr. Perkins saffl ho realized that thcro
was little chance of being able to find some
thing new to say In dlscimslng the Issues
that are 'before the people , but he believed
If he felt so Inclined , and wanted to be real
mean , that ho could make a strong and
cffcctlvn speech by simply quoting demo
cratic speakers and repeat what the demo
crats are saying about one another. He
would not go back to 1892 or ' 94 , but to the
Indianapolis convention. There was plenty
to talk about , aside from the money question.
The political situation has been filled with
grave danger to the country , and like all
crcat crises. It lias called forth heroes , and
Instances of heroism have been numerous.
Ho declared that there had been no more
pathetic thing In this or any other cam
paign In the history of the country than
the tour of the union generals. If the
spectacle and the speeches of those maimed
heroes would not arouse patriotism , then
nothing that the most gifted orator could
say would have effect. He felt that the
fight for the honor and Integrity of the
nation had been fought and won , nnd nil
that remained between now nnd election waste
to prepare to ratify the big victory that was
coming. The country generally looked
upon the campaign as the Irishman looked
upon the badges on the caps of the old vet
erans at the St. Paul encampment , when
some one asked htm what the letters , G. A.
If. on the caps of the men stood for. " 01
think the letters mean 'Generally Alt Repub
lican , ' " replied Pat. The popocratlc cam
paign had been one of wind , of assertion ,
flatlsm. and It has been difficult to fight be
cause It Is difficult with poetry , with argu
ment or with solid shot to fight atmosphere.
Ho said you could not confound liryan with
nn Interrogation point. Ask him "why ? "
and he will say "try It. "
"Tho popocrats have been leading us to a
precipice , whoso depths are as dark as night ,
and no ono knows where the bottom Is , or
what It Is , and they tell us to jump and
find out. The popocratlc campaign has not
a single substance for foundation. They
believe they believe , and they think they
think , but they don't know. The only free
coinage the country Is In favor of now U
the free coinage of common sense. They
assume , and whatever they do Is assumption.
They say they want to return to the dollar
of the daddies , but they don't , for that was
an honest ' dollar. Bryan can no more re
verse the 'great laws of civilization nnd
commerce than he can scat himself on the
thronu of the Eternal.
"We propose to save the country's life , for
Us honor Is Its life , and who cares for a life
without honor , except a populist ? "
He declared that there was nothing new
In the coinage question , and reviewed at
length the history of federal coinage down
to the present tlmo , Including , of course ,
the "crime of 1S73. " Ho declared as a re
publican he would rather talk about the
crime of 1S92 , when blundering stupidity
and malevolent greed under the guise of
( tatcmanshlp , robbed this country of Its
grandest prosperity , and capital and labor
of their billions of dollars of wealth. The
i-cpubllcan party hasl committed po crimes
or enacted laws that'wei'c not for the gen
eral public good. It might have made a mis
take In 1S73 , but that was no reason why
crlnio should bo committed In 1S9G.
Going deeper Into the silver question ho
declared that the republican party had done
more for silver than any other or all other
parties that had ever existed In this coun
try. All of the legislation of the world ,
Including the eighty-one years of our own
experimenting , has not affected the com
mercial value of gold or silver to the extent
of I cent.
He thought It a somewhat remarkable
fact that silver had steadily declined since
the adoption of the free silver platform at
Chicago. Thla nindo It look as If silver had
no confidence In Uryan. On the- other hand ,
since McKlnley was nominated and has
stayed at home and talked to his visitors
and , pointed out the true road to return to
prosperity , wheat has steadily advanced In
price , raising the value of the farms and
lightening the burden of the farmers , and
making It appear as It wheat had plenty of
confidence in McKlnley.

Justlco Cook heard the cases of Hlpley
and Handey , the two pickpockets who were
caught In the act of rifling the pockets ol
two women on the street. Nearly the entire
day was devoted to the hearing. Owing to , the
fact that there Is no provision made for the
presence of a prosecuting attorney In police
or Justices' courts , and which , by the way
Is the cause of a largo number of bad men
escaping punishment , the police olllcers wen
obliged to prosecute the casca. Officer An
derson was detailed for the duty. The
prisoners hod engaged Colonel Dalley , who
made a strong and successful fight. Thn
men were discharged on a technicality. The
evidence against them was conclusive and
direct , but the Information charged assault.
and there was nothing to show that an as
sault had been committed beyond the mere
fact that one of the women who was robbed
had the pocket of her dreas torn by the
thief. When the men were discharged they
lost no tlmo In getting out of the city.
Justice Cook' held the two colored men ,
Parker and Green , to the grand Jury. They
were charged with having stolen two pairs
of trousers from John Ucno's store. The
court fixed , their bond at $50.
