lished flag stations, but in arranging the
charge for fare do not make a rate from
the flHg station, but from the last stop
bark. When a person boards a train at
a (lag station he ts charged on a' mllengo
basis from the station to the rear to the
destination. Furthermore, they claim that
the road lias no right to charge a mile
age basis Inside a city limit where they
are using the street car tracks laid under
a franchise for a straight fare. J. 1.
Dally, who lives Just outside the city limits
of Des Moines and who donated nlno
acres of land as rlght-of-'way for the Inter
urban, lives Just six miles from the Des
Moines street car waiting room. He Is
charged fare from Johnston, which is three
miles farther from Des Moines. At the
rate of. 2 cents a mile he In charged 1?
centa. when he lives only six miles from
Des Moines, and most of the distance Is
Inside the city limits of Des Moines and
should be charged at 6 cents for the trip.
The railroad commission Is asked to rule
that the Inlerurbans can charge 2 cents
a mile from the place where the passenger
bonrds tha train to the city limits of Des
Moines and 6 cents from that In. The point
Is an Important cne, both to the road and
the patrons. . ., ...

GOOD MATERIAL AT , BELLEVUE
Many New Men of Prosnlse for Foot
null Team.
The openinj week of Bellevue college
brought In some fine material for the foot
ball team. Although several of the old-time
stars were late In returning, the Mist of
the week saw twenty new men. In the field,
ready to wr.rk with all their strength to
make a place on the 'varsity team. Conch
Guy A. Crow, a man of much experience
In the foot ball world, has been trying
the men out with light work preparatory to
heavy practice next we.U.
Among the new men ore Enfield of Lyons.
Templin and Morse of Nebraska City,
Racely of Pender, Mator of Lyons, Fuller
and Johnson, all stars from their respective
communities. The old men who have so far
donned their mole skins are Kearns, cop
tain; Carey, Phelps. Ohman. Sullenbergcr,
P.ttton. Jones, Barry, a "varsity man of
"05. and Dow. Browne, the punter, and
Saunders, the big guard, will be on the
field Monday. Marvel, the fast end on la.t
year's team. Is expected next week. With
the old men and the new ones striving for

Several games have been scheduled this
year that will be hard. Crelghton wilt not
be met this year, much to the dissatisfac
tion of the student body, on account of the
rules of the Nebraska Collegiate associa

rules can be played with In any athletic
contest. This cancels the Crelghton game.
Negotiations are now on with Nebraska to
fill out the former Crelghton date. The

do average 200 pounds, they are speed

all of last year's f.'M" men will make l ho
team, as much ,of the new material is
showing up strong. Those of last year's
varsity eleven who, do hold their Jobs
on the line will have to hustle hatdcr
than they did lust season. Practlre wa
commenced on September 9 and has ben
going ahead ever since In spite of thj
heat.
The team Is weakened some by the loss
o' Livingston, captain-elect, who will not
again be' seen on the gridiron, except as
coach. Livingston plnyed a star game
at tackle last year nnd did much of tho
work for the Tigera- last Thanksglvln-t
