LINCOLN, Oct. M.-ISpeclal Telesram.)
Nebraska today discovered Colorado all It
hud been reputed to be, and mora. The
CotnhuskeM found It necessary to work
like Trojana to pile up a score of 22 to S
gainst their husky opponents from the
mountains.
For once luck came to the assistance of
tlie Cornhuskers In their extremity and en
abled them to make a wider difference In
the score than the comparative strength
of the two teams appeared to Justify.
Colorado played a sturdy game on that
defense, foiling; almost every attempt of
the Cornhuskers to gain, either through
the line or around the ends. Once only,
early In the second half, the Cornhuskers
armed a series of merciless plunges through
the center of the tackles, and before the
visitors could recover their nerve had
forced the ball over for a touchdown. But
during the remainder of the gam? the
Colorado line was as Impregnable as the
mountains the players came from.
On the offense the visitors wr almost
as strong as on the defense, and presented
variety of passes and tricks that baffled
the Nebraska players time after time.
Once the visitors worked a forward pass
for a gain of sixty yards, fifty of which
were made on Stirrer's 'toss. On three
other occasions the visitors made the play
good for substantial gains and had they.
possessed sufficient power In their back
field might have forced the ball across
Nebraska's goal. As It was the Corn
huskers, when hard pressed, showed their
old-time grtT, and though scored against
twice through the efficiency of Stirrett's
boot, stubbornly defended their goal line
from the attacks of the visitors.
Faulty generalship at critical moments,
combined with the ability of the Corn
huskers to take Instant advantage of Colo
rado's mistakes niade up - for Nebraska's
failures In other departments of the game,
while Weller's punting and his two goals
from the field were even more potent fac
tors In bringing woe to the westerners.'
Captain Saves the Day.
Once more the star of the contest was CoIorado-B forty-five yard line. An ex
Nebraska's captain. Eight of the Corn- chanKe of punU put.the ball back at the
iiiiEKCis points were scorea from nis kick

spurt of the second half. Nebraska's other
two'polnts came on a safety,, when Stlrrett,
a'.rhing one of Weller's punts behind the
teal, started' back with It, changed his
i.i'nd, und touched the ball down after re
treating from the gridiron.

Weller mora than held his own against his
i)i i-i.imTil. and on several occasions an ex
change of punts gave Nebraska a gain,
though the Cornhuskers were facing the
wind. Uy virtue of his two place kicks for
K"l, Stlrrett was the star for the visiters.
ulhough It was his unskillful handling of
punts that gave Nebraska Its chance to
make the victory an emphatic one. John
son played a brilliant game at left end for
Nebimska, while Colorado's tackles time
after time broke up the plays which Cole
had hoped to make effective against the
visitors
Both' teams emerged from the game In
good condition, despite the fierceness wltn
which It was waged. The westerners
planned tA leave for. Denver on an early
morning train. Four thousand people saw
the game.

SCORE SIXTY -TWO TO NOTHING

'training; Agal'nst the State Cham

Form.
Outclassed In every branch of the game,
the Grand Island team went down to de
feat Saturday afternoon at 'Vinton street
park- before the lively bunch of plfT
sklnnera from Bellevue by the score of
62 to 0. Bellevue slnjply played -rings
around tl.J large team from Grand Island,
and at line bucking, kicking, sprinting,
forward passing and tackling excelled
the larger men, who evidently had not
been as well drilled in the new game of
foot ball as It Is played under the je
vlsed rules. Several times the Grand
Island boys made poor plays, which
howed clearly they had not been well
coached on the rules of the game. ' At
one stage a husky from Grand . Island
caught a' kick back of the goal line
and tried his best to carry the ball Into
fair territory and was only prevented
by a taukia. At another time two downs
war made by Grand Island with one
of their back field men playing back to
catch a punt.
Bellevue showed speed that was re
markable and gave a 'splendid exhibition
of what could be done under the new rules
to make the game open and !n constant
view of the spectators. Their forward
passes worked well, as well as the quar
terback kick, which was constantly used
with good effect
A goodly crowd was present, but t'ie
band which has been In evidence in the
Crelghton games at the park to date was
missing. The Bellevue rooters were
bunched In one section of the bleacher3
and kept things lively with their songs
and yells. Grand Island had few rooters
land these few had little grounds for get
ting hilarious after the first kick-off.
j Grand Island was never In the game from
the first and It turned into a question of
how large the Bellevue score would be.
Brovrne Krgnlar Mande.
Browne, the left-footed kicker of tho
Bellevue team, was able to punt twice the
distance of the Grand Island kickers and
continually used this advantage to good ef
fect. Bellevue won tha toss and took the
north goal. Grand Island kicked oft and
after Browne had made a short return of
the ball the opposing elevens were lined up
for, tho first scrimmage. It was this first
effort which took .all the starch out of the
Grand Island team. Browne kicked" the
ball on the first down and Mortar, the fleet
footed halfback of the Bellevue team, cap
tured the ball, and dodging all the Grand
I Island players who happened to be In front
of him, put the ball between the goal posts
n less than minute after the first call of
i p,ay Browne miaeei tne goal. After a

OMAHA HIGH SCHOOL WINNER
Gives Hnvlan High School Its First
Defeat for Several Years.
HARLAN, la.. Oct. 2S. (Special Tele
gram.) Harlan High school had Its colors
lowered tpday for the first time, in several
years. Omaha High school won the game
by a score of 43 to 0.' 'The Omaha boys
were the heavier and also had the ad
vantage In age. Harlan was also handi
capped by the absence of -several of Its
best' players, mado necessary by the strict
observance of the lnterscholastlc rules.
While the score might, have been closer
had these men been in the game it would
not have made any difference in the result.
an Omaha fairly outplayed the locals by a
wide margin. So far as the line was con
cerned there was not much to choose be
tween the two elevens, Harlan making
practically all Its gains through the line,
but the Omaha boys pulled off a rfumber
of long runs," the local tacklera being un
able to get to the runners effectively, while
the Omaha boys stopped every effort at
long gains around the ends, j ' v v
There was considerable fumbling on both
sides and Omaha lost at least two touch
downs through penalties for hoKlng. The
score at the end of the first half waa 32
to 0. In the final half Harlan braced some
what and Omaha, having the game cinched,
was not so anxious to score,, being prin
cipally concerned to see that Its own goal
was not crossed, and In this it waa success
ful. Following was the lineup:

Roasting nuts before a fire Is used In the
reading of the future and makes a Jolly
stunt for a. Hallowe'en party. Flace two
nuts side by side before the fire. If they
Jump apart as they begin to burn the
couple for whom they stand will never
marry. -
.,The women In Ireland test the faithful
ness of their lovers by naming three nuts
and placing them near the grate fire. The
nut that peps br Jumps stands for an
Untrue and fickle lover, the one that
flames up stands for a man who has high
regard for the maiden, while the one that
burns steadily she will marry.
From Scotland comes the test for the
future by the three luggles. Three luggles,
or djshes, are placed in a row. One con
tains clear water, another dirty water,
and the third dish is empty. Each player
is blindfolded and in turn dips Into one
of the three luggles the position of which
has been changed, before each trial. If
the clear water is dipped Into It means
that -the' player will be happily married,
the 'dirty water stands fori an unhappy
marriage, while the empty one signifies
that the player will remain single.

Tanja. I became sort of an adviser for him
and the higher officials, and they asked me
many questions. Tanja had a daughter,
who liked me very much, but I refused to
marry her, because If I took her as my
wife I Would never have been allowed to
leave the Island again. One peculiar thing
about tho Mendans is the manner In which
they keep the population divided.
"The ruler alms to keep an average of
about Ave girls to every man. It Is also
the aim or the authorities to prevent births,
as well as deaths, upon the islands. If any
person becomes 111 and the chances are not
good for bis recovery he Is removed to
some other island so he will not die while
in Tanja's dominion." Cincinnati Enquirer.
