The Indiana suffered mostly from offside play sod for Interfering with the Nebraska center before the ball was put la play. Arrhlqueme for the Indians played bril liantly. Practically all ot Haskell's gains Iplonu to his credit. West over, the Ne braska captain, was a stumbling block to he redujen. and he threw back the charges of the opposing hacks on almost every as sault on bis side of the line. Once on the offense the Cornhuekcra' captain broke through the Indian line and ran fifty yards before being brought to earth. The crush ing defeat administered to the Indians, who are the strongest aggregation next to Minnesota that has opposed the Cornhuskers this season, encourages the supporters of; Nebraska In the belief that Booth's men will go through the aeaeon without a defeat.

In South Omaha the total registration this year is 8.981. while two years ago it was 4,872, a deficiency of Ml. In the two cities, therefore. 4.297 less voters are registered tor the election next Tuesday than were enrolled preceding the presidential election ot 1900. The deficiency in both cities is about evenly divided between the different par ties. If it be tsken for granted that the larger portion of those who refused to give party affiliation are ot the' democratic forces. , ' In Omaha the greatest falling off is1 in the Third ward, where 715 less voters have registered this, year than Jn .1900; then cornea the Slath ward With a deficiency of f2; the First, 394; the Eighth, 391; the Fourth, 356; the Fifth," 31; the Seventh. 30:1; the Second, 297, and the Ninth, with a 'falling oft of only 9. The large -registration in the Ninth ward is explained by the increaaed population and building up of that part of tha city. Although no complete statistics on the registration of last year were compiled by the newspapers, it is known that this year's enrollment of voters Is In excess of that of 1901 by probaly 1.500. With a total of 18.435 voters registered In the city of Omaha It Is, likely that the to tal vote in the city next Tuesdsy will ba about 17,000, estimating that 6 to 8 per cent of those registered will not go to the polls.

"For 20 years I suffered with chronic In digestion and bowel complaint which brought on general debility," aaya a gentle man of Danville, 111. "I was very poor In flesh and every one thought I had con sumption. I was treated by the best doctors of several cities, but to no benefit. At laat I went to the hospital and while there began ualng Grape-Nuts, the phy sician giving me permission, and from that day I commenced to gain. By careful diet. and using Judgment, I trained In flesh and strength, my lungs got better and today I conalder myself as well aa men In general at my age of 60 years. The other patients noticed that I gained faater under the same treatment and cars and I told them to add Grape-Nuta to their diet and be careful not to eat meat, nor warm bread and starchy food. I ran now eat anything In reason; I sleep well; bowels are regular and I have gained tt pounds In flesh. Orape-Nute food saved my life.

FAREWELL' TO DICKINSON I Former Associates in Social, Bunioe Rtd ! Railroacl Life at BanOUV. j -" j COME AS THE GUESTS OF PRESIDENT BURT j ' om llel of Krent torporallon Hons Through 'All Ranks nml from All 4 lasaea Are lie- rets at the Tartlng. The men who gathered at the Omaha club last evenlnr to pay tribute to Edward Dickinson represented not only the many branches of a grest railway system, hut also msny of the city's most important, in terests. They brought with them from the hearts of the people he knew best, from the humblest to the highest in the com munity, one unanimous sentiment of regret over the depsrture of the Union Tsclfic's former general manager. The guests were there at the invitation of President Horace, G. Burt of that road, who acted well the host In the farewell dinner In honor of Mr. Dickinson. They completely filled the large hall on the sec ond .floor of the Omaha dub, which mas made beautiful with light and flowers for the occasion After the menu wss served and the ci gars passed Prvsident Burt took up the duties of tosstmaster and announced the speakers of the evening. The first of these was Judge W. R. Kelly, who took the pleas ant task of relating a short history of the guest ot honor. He was followed by James M. Woolworth. "I do not know of any gentleman." ssid the speaker, "who has become the controll ing spirt of sny road who has brought around him such love and respect from his fellow workers and subordinates. In the future may he turn back and say 'These are the men I loved and who loved me.' " From the Rnnk and File. George W. Vrooman, chief of the loco motive engineers of the system, spoke, he said, on behalf ot the masses and brought from them the best wishes for Mr. Dickin son In his new field. C. E. Engle, chief of the bosrd ot locomo tive firemen, proposed a standing toast, saying: "Lite your glasses snd brink with me to the health, welfare and success of Mr. Edward Dickinson." President Burt then called upon Mr. Meconnher to speak for the "hlud end of the train." He paid one of the strongest trib utes ot the evenlug and said that the nearly 500 men he. represented felt that in losing Mr. Dickinsou they were losing as well as a friend a father and adviser. He was able to testify that Mr. Dickinson had a record of never having done an intentional Injus tice to a subordinate. Following this tribute President Burt snnounctd thst "we will have to come down now to 'our man Baldwin.' " The general attorney eloquently seconded the praise that had already been spoken of the retir ing general manager and added that he could say nothing more in mere words which would add to what bad been spoken. To General Manderson, who followed, the occasion appealed aa one which would al ways hold a strong place In the hearts ot those present. Incidentally he remarked that "the occasion was so enjoyable and so excellent an advertising medium that we ought to order some one connected with the Burlington to leave the service." Edward Roaewater epoke of Edward Dickinson aa a -soldier In the path ot duty and painted a picture ot what the apeaker had seen ef the' upwsrd clmb of the even ing's guest. .' Senator Millard. George P. Bidwell, John W. Lacy of Wyoming and Dr. George L. Miller were called upon and epoke briefly, endorsing . the sentiments . ot the other speakers. The speech of President Burt wss un doubtedly the greatest and most unselfish tribute of the evening. He said in parti "To say that I have appreciated the serv ices of Mr. Dickinson would be expressing it feebly Indeed. Millions have been spent on the Union Pacific and millions Will be spent, and every improvement that has been made has been at the sdvlce and counsel of Mr. Dickinson. He It waa who understood fully the needs of our system. I am glad of the opportunity to make the statement that to him belongs all the credit. Mr. Stil well has secured the services of one of the ablest, wisest and one ot the most loyal railroad men in this country." And then as Edward Dickinson rose to respond to the toasts of the evening the guests present rose to their feet with him and the intense feeling of the evening cul mlnatd In a long continued burst of ap plause. Mr. Dickinson said: Mr. Dickinson Reaponds. "I am at a loss for words with which to express myself as I would like in appre ciation of the honor that has been be stowed upon me this evening. That I do appreciate from ray heart I ask you all to believe. Now, aa to my actions In leaving the Union Pacific I will tell you all about it. As has been stated here tonight, all my railroad acrvice has been practically In the employ of the Union Pacific. In my caae, as In many others, I have come to a time when it is best to make a change. An opportunity has presented Itself to better myself, especially financially, and I bave taken it. That is all there is to It. There Is another point I would like to speak of and that Is the brutal effort ot aome one to make It appear that I have been disloyal to Mr. Burt. There has never at any time been a lack of harmon, or friction be tween us. I want to thank you all, again and again, from the bottom ot my heart Goodbye." Aa ba was speaking the wallers stopped moving about among the tables and the men leaned forward and their cigars were forgotten, and when be had finished they rose to their feet sgaln and started all at once the song ot "Auld Lang Syne." Aweats of tn Evening. Those present. In addition to the host and guest ot honor, were: Edson Rich, Rrsstus Young, H. I. Pettis, R. Anderson. 11. J. Sterling. T. B. South ard. J. B. Berrw R. L.

POLITICIANS TALK BIG (Continued from First Page.) are all republican. A nonpartisan estlmste would probably give the democrats two and the republicans three, with cne In doubt. Repnhllenn VMil lllinula. CHICAGO. Nov. 1. It is admitted by the leaders of both parties that the chief fight ill be in Chicago and Cook county. Both parties are claiming the county by plurali ties ranging from 20,000 to 30.0"0. The re publican managers say they are absolutely certain of victory, while the democrats as sert that the strong labor representation on the county ticket, coupled with the pledge to support public ownership of public utili ties, will bring them a stronger labor vote than they have ver hsd before and as sure them a victory. The most Important fight oi the election is on the congress men. Both parties predict victory in the Sixth dlurict. but the republicans are conceded the First. Second, Third and Ninth districts and democratic victory is con ceded in the Fourth. Fifth and Eighth. The state delegation in congress consists of eleven republicans and eleven democrats. The republicans claim they will gain eight congressmen throughout the state. The democrats do not claim a majority In the next state delegation. In the fight for the state legislature, which will elect a United States senator, the republicans claim. Including doubtful candidates, they will have 121 members of the legislature, while the democrats assert, they will have 107. There seems to be every probability that the republicans will control the legislature. SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Nov. 1.

California this years elects a complete set ot state officials, a legislsture and eight congressmen. As ususl, both republicans snd democrsts claim tbey will mske a com plete sweep.
