BOULDEH , Colo. , Nov. 17. ( Special
Telfgram. ) The corn-fed heavyweights of
the Nebraska university were too much for
the foot ball experts of the Colorado unlvcr-
eWy today nrt they were defeated by a tcoro
o ! 22 to 10.
The game was filled with good plays and
exciting feature * . The" Colorado men on the
line averaged twenty pounds less than the
visitors and they depended mostly on trick
playc and end runs , rather than bucking the
fttono wall that the Nebraslmns seemed to
* mve created. The flrat touchdown was
made by Benedict In twelve minutes , after a
series of lino-bucking by the visitors. Mel-
ford kicked the goal. The Colorado men
braced up and scored a touchdown , after
blocking their opponents on tbotr eighteen-
Sard line and making two good gains
through tackling. Score : Nebraska , 6 ;
Colorado , G.
In the second half Fullmer made a long
run right through Colorado for ths next
touchdown and Erwlii kicked goal. Colorado
punted to Nebraska's fifteen-yard line ,
where the ball was Juggled -an I carried
over for a touchdown after two plays
through tackle. After trying the Princeton
goal Nebraska Bent Benedict with raagnin-
lent Interference thlrty-threo yards and
then through tackle for twenty-one more.
Krwln was pushed across and then kicked
goal. After working the spheio to Boulder's
thirty-yard line , Nebraska tried a Princeton
oal , but failed. Several more playj and
with the ball on Boulder's twenty-yard line ,
tbo Ncbraskans succeeded In kicking the
ball clean over for a goal. The features
of the second half were the good .Minting
ot both teams and four attempts of the
visitors for the Princeton goal , the last ono
Vising successful.

KEW HAVEN , Conn. . Nov. 17. The Yale
foot ball eleven held n short practice of
perhaps half an hour tills afternoon on a
rain-soaked Held. No lineup was formed
nd the only work clone by the 'varsity
players was running down the field In kicks
and catching the ball. This was to remedy
uch faults * .as tlmt of the last bl game ,
When the players ran Into each other sev
eral tlmes In their anxiety to got the plg-
Latn tonight the definite picking of the
Yule foot ball Plovon WOH made. There were
only three positions about which there
wan any doubt ut all , the two halfbacks )
and that of fullback. Kor the latter place
It was taken for granted , however , that Mc-
Brldn would eventually be chosen , but the
coacher to whom was delegated the power
to decide the matter has tonight sent Mc-
Brldn to New York to be treated by a
prctnllst. IIH Ills ankle Is getting worse ,
though at first It seemed a flmplc wrench.
This gives the blp fullback only ono
chance In a thousand of playing mxt Sat
urday. In his placn Towimend will doubt-
Itss BO In. In punting and all kicking
Captain Chamberlain will , however , act.
For halfbacks Dudley nnd Durn'on nro

encouraging account of the progress of the

year the Indians hare raised a larger crop
of farm products by 33 per cent than ever
before In their history. Early la the season
there was serious trouble anticipated be-
cause the Indian bureau at Washington re
fused to supply the Indians with seed grain

Nlckerson appealed to Senator Warren to
aid him and the Senator made a personal
effort with the Indian bureau nnd after
some vigorous and Iiardork secured the
scod.

' reservation will have taken their lands In

each man , woman and child. After this Is
done there will remain nearly 2,000,000
acres which will be open to settlement by >

LINCOLN , Nov. 17. ( Special. ) There Is
a curious election row down 'In Nemnlm
county. The fusion candidates lor the legis
lature were Jones and Swan. Jones wag a
populist ot republican antecedents and was
running for re-election. Swan was a dem
ocrat of the old school. Through tile cam
paign there \\as not the boat of feeling be
tween the men. Swan claimed that Jones'
record In the Inst legislature was hurting
the ticket , while Jbnes was certain that
Swan was losing votes for everybody by his
method of campaign1 ! ! . ; und his style ot
I speeches. After election the official count
showed that one- republican was elected by
a good majority and that Swan was the
other successful man , leading Jones by one
vote. The friends of Jones have discovered
that 1n one precinct Swan got credit for
twenty votes that should not ha\-o been
counted. It was In a prec'nct ' where Arm
strong , the republican , was popular , and
twenty fuslonlsts who voted practically
straight tickets also made a cross after the
name of Armstrong. Owing to the compli
cation of the ballot law the judges of elec
tion decided that the votes should count tor
Armstrong nnd Swan , although there was
no cross after the name of Swan on any of
the scratched ballots. The law la explicit
on this point , the judges ot election ac
knowledge that their ruling was wrong and
' everybody knows that Jones was legally
t elected. It la said that there are other Ir
regularities down there that would result lu
the seating of Jones should corrections be
made , and It IB probable that the "allied
forces of reform" In Nemaha county nro
likely to get Into a content. Should the
fuss bo brought Into the legislature it will
furnish a further Incentive to the amend
ment of the present ballot lew.
I.cl thr Governor Out. '
The supreme court today made the fol
lowing holding In the case brought by Vic
tor Rosewatcr to compel Governor Holcorab
to act In the Flro and Police Board matter :
j "This action was to compel the respondent
to perform certain duties claimed to devolve
upon him by virtue of his office. In State ex
rel Smyth against Moores , 76 N. W. Rep. 175 ,
It was held that the act of .the legislature of
1SD7 , Insofar as It assumes to confer nu-
thorlty upon the governor to appoint lire
and police commissioners lu cities of the
metropolitan class , Is void. The duty of
wlilcli It Is now sought to compel the pur-
formance depends for Its exercise upon the
force of the statute above referred to , and ns
the statute Is void no such duty exists , and
therefore Its performance cannot be con
trolled by mandamus. "
The court handed down an opinion In the
Irvine case , affirming the Judgment of the
district court. The case arose out of a dis
pute between Commissioner Irvine and
Auditor Cornell. Irvine , put In a bill for pay
for lectures delivered at the university and
Cornell refused to approve the voucher. The
auditor was prompted by the celebrated
opinion written by the attorney general ,
which held that an employe of the state at a
specified salary "owed all his time to the
state. " The fact that employes of the offices
of the auditor and the attorney general have
drawn extra pay In addition .to their salaries ,
and that the" attorney genfral himself had
taken additional pay whenever possible ,
made this ruling a subject of much sport
during the campaign. The Irvine case was
tried In the district court , and the verdict
was against the auditor. The affirmation of
this decision by the supreme court allows
Irvlno to draw his pay. There is a prece
dent In the matter , olthouih It Is not exactly
In Judicial form. While on the supreme
bench Judge Maxwell entered Into a con
tract with the regents and drew extra pay
for lecturing at the university.
The syllabus of the opinion is as follows :
1. An Incumbent of a state office , of which
the duration nnd salary are definitely fixed
by statute , Is not accountable to the auditor
of public accounts of the state for the man-
' tier In which as such Incumbent he has dis
charged the duties of his office.
2. Where a state officer has rendered
services outside of and not Incompatible
with his duties ns such officer. It Is not
proper for the auditor of public accounts of
the state to refuse to Issue a warrant In
payment of such extra services merely be
cause the said state officer's salary , already
paid , was for the period during which the
said extra services were rendered.
3. A statute created the office of commis
sioner of the supreme court , prescribed his
duties , provided his compensation , payable
quarterly , and only forbade , during his term ,
his engaging In the practice of law. Held ,
that neither upon principle nor upon statu-
lory grounds was such commissioner prop-
erly denied compensation for lectures de-
llvered to a law clana of the State unlver-
' blty , slnco such extra services were not In-
i compatible with or Included within the scope
of his duties as such commissioner.
In dessentlng from the opinion of the
court Judge Sullivan pays : "The Judgment
In this case enforces a claim entirely mer-
Horlfus. I think , Tjowcver. the contract
which Is the basis of the action contravenes
sound public policy and that the decision
will prove -to be a mischievous precedent. "

there were two candidates for assessor
Jaruea Haldcman , fuslonlst , and Mr. Rick-
anl , republican. Early on the morning rf
election day Mr. Haldeman , on aged man ,
died. Ho received the majority of the votes
cast In the precinct , however , and was de
clared elected. County Clerk Mcnck hai not
as yet Issued a certificate ot election to Mr.
Haldeman , but Intends to do so. Ho main
tains that be would not bo acting according
to the provisions of the statute if he Issued
the certificate Mr. Rlckard , for another
than the latter received a. majority of the
votes cast. Some contend , however , that
upon the day James Haldcman was elected
there was no such man and the Judges and
clerks of election had no right to count the
vote for him. This assumes that they had
official notice of his death , which they did
not have. In such a case Mr. .Rlckard
would have received the greatest number of
votes and ought to receive the certificate of
election , being the only candidate for the
office.
