Mrs. E. H. Powers of 4725 North 28th

reason for saying a word In praise of the
United Doctors, those expert medical spe
c!all8ts of the Omaha1 institute at 206 Ne

where they, have gained a most enviable
reputation for curing hundreds of canes
of old chronic and deep seated diseases
that could not even be helped by ordinary
doctors and medicines.
In writing of her case, Mrs. Powers says:
OMAHA, Neb.;' Sept; 18, 1909. For lour
or five years I had been bothered with
kidney, liver and stomach trouble. I had
taken various medicines and treatments
for these conditions,' but none of them gave
me' any permanent relief. I continued to
grow worse, and last, February there came
on a kind of. dropsical condition in my
feet and legs. 'My feet would burn until
I would be compelled to put them out
from, under the 'cover at night. They be
came Inflamed and deep cracks came be

walk and grew worse constantly under
the .physicians' care, whom I had at that
time employed, and' the condition became
so bad that we greatly feared blood poison

began to Improve at once. My Improve

the publlo for the sake of any one who
may be suffering as I was, that I am per

OPEN DATE GIVES AN ADVANTAGE

Griffith's Mm Hfit of Two
Week Old Mea Are
. MImIii(i .
WKCOLN, Oct. 18.-(Fpeclal.) Now, with
the . Minnesota contest a matter, of history,
the Cornhusker students are ready for the
snnual game with ' Iowa, which will be
ployed In . Lincoln next Saturday. This
co.Uest the student are set on winning
and they look for their team' to have an
easy time with the men from Towa City.
"Let us win this game with Iowa, and on
November 6 let us defeat old Kansas, and
then we will be happy," Is the sentiment
of the entire school.
lows's showing against Minnesota, when
it was defeated 41 to 0. and Us narrow
escape from a tie score In the game with
weak little. Cornell last. Saturday have
given the rooters good grounds for expect
ing their eleven to defeat the Hawkeyes
by a comfortable margin.
The Nebraska coaches, however, have
cautioned the rooters not 'to treat Iowa
too lightly. The fact that Iowa was beaten
badly by the Gophers, they say. Is no sign
they will bo weak all season. It probably
has spurred them on in their training in
hopes of defeating Nebraska.
With Iowa, as with Nebraska, the Minne
sota game meant no more than a chance
to test the strength of their own men. The
later games of the season sre the ones
that count with the Hawkeyes. And of
all the games on their schedule there Is not
one. they would rather wlnjthan the game
with Nebraska. If they should lose all
the rest and yet defeat Nebraska their
season would be called a success. '
Anything to Beat Nebraska.
The sentiment of Iowa toward the Corn
huskers was well shown .laBt - fall when
"King" Cole took his proteges to Iowa
City for the annual game. Coach Cole,
because the big game with Ames was only
a week off, wanted to give his men as
easy a game as possible and wished to play
but thirty-minute halves. Coach Catlln of
Iowa, however, Insisted the length of the
halves be thirty-five minutes as required
by the rules. Of course this was agreed
to when the Iowa coach demanded it. To
explain why he wanted the full length of
halves Coach Catlln declared Nebraska was
Iowa's big game and - that the students
would rather win It than any. other. He
said Iowa was in good shape end he
thought the, men could stand thirty-five'
minute halves better than the Corr.huskers.
This fall finds the Iowa students, players
and coaches Imbued with the same spirit
that led their coach to make that state'
ment a year ago. It. is the sentiment of
"we must beat Nebraska and we don't
care how we do It" which permeates the
atmosphere In the little college town of
Iowa City.
Iowa had no game today and this open'
date has given the coaches a period of
two weeks in which to train the men for
Nebraska. The Minnesota and Iowa games
.were Just what' the Hawkeyes needed the
Incentive to make them work hard to get
a' reputation for, this fall, and according
to reports that have : emanated from the
Iowa stronghold this week they are getting
right down to business In preparing . for
the clash with the Cornhuskers.
' Iowa XUesee Star . Player.
Missing from the Hawkeye lineup is the
face of Kirk, the famous punter and drop
kicker of last season's team. He was a
great halfback and wfes placed on the
second all-western foot ball 'eleven by
several critics. ,
Kirk did effective work against the Corn
huskers at Iowa City In the annual game
which "King" Cole's men won by a score
of 11 to 8, but his work was more telling
In the contest with Kansas, when his toe
nearly caused the downfall of the Missouri
valley champions. The absence of Kirk
has weakened the backfleld of the Hawk'
eyes this season.
Besides Kirk, Iowa, like Nebraska, lost
several other good men. of last season's
eleven and the coaches are struggling with
green material In developing an eleven.
There are Still remaining on the Hawkeye
eleven, though, three powerful players of
last year's eleven and this trio Is a fine
nucleus around which to build isp a strong
team. These three men are Hyland, end;
Hasard, - fullback, and Captain Gross,
tackle. . .
Hyland probably has more possibilities
than any other of the letter men. He is
the fellow who, after Kirk was removed
from the Nebraska game last fall, did the
punting and goal kicking for Iowa. He
succeeded in booting the ball over the cross'
bars for one field goal, whloh brought the
score up to eight points. He tried another
field goal in. the lingering minutes of the
game, which. If made, would have won the
battle for Iowa. This kick was accurate
enough, but was blocked by one of Ne
braska's linemen.
This fall Hyland Is starring for the Hawk'
eyes. In the Minnesota game ne was
powei for his eleven and against a weaker
team than the Gophers he probably would
have done some effective work. Two weeks
of hard training should make him a danger
ous man In the game with Nebraska.
Groea ts Fierce Player.
In the line Iowa probably has one of the
best tackles of the Missouri valley In Us
captain, Gross. Against the Cornhuskers
last fall this player was a ' power of
strength. He was mighty hard to shove
out of the. way and very often was able
to open up holes tor his offense." His meth

ods were rudimentary theft, but this fall.
with much coaching, he has come to be a
great tackle and he will be a hard proposi
tion for the Cornhuskers.
As a fullback Harard Is belter than any
man on the Nebraska eleven. He Is the
best man In the Hawkeyes backrleld. He
is short and stout snd hits the line hard.
wMch mrnns he will do some charging
against the Cornhusker defense next Sat
urday.
From reports sent out at Iowa City It
has been gleaned that Coach Griffith will
play an open game against "King" Cole's
men. The Hawkeyes are now being drilled
In the ue of the forward pass and other
trl k plays. It Is rumored that the onslde
kick Is coming In for much attention In
the Iowa camp.
"King" Cole hss been teaching his men
several trick, plays during the last week,
but It Is not his Intention to use all these
against Iowa. He looks upon the Hawk-
eyes as a great foe, but. he does not believe
his men will be called upon to disclose all
their secrets. There are some he has In
vented for the Kansas game and It Is doubt
ful whether these would be used even to
tave off defeat at the hands of the Hawk-
eyes.
NEW RULES ABE NOW POPULAR
Changes Are Meeting with Favor la
All Colleges.
NEW - YORK, Oct. 18. When the an
nouncement was made last winter after
the foot ball rules committee had formu
lated the 1909 gridiron code that the scor
ing value of a field goal had been reduced
to three points, common comment among
ardent devotees of the great autumn sport
had it that the play would fall into dlB
favor. However, It Is evident that such
has not been the case. If recent games
can be taken as any criterion the. pretty
play whereby the leather spins between the
uprights will be decidedly In vogue this
season. Apparently the reduction of one
point in Its rallying value has not reduced
Its worth in the minds of the coaches and
their charges.
It was heady work on the part of Prince
ton's field general and the clever toe. of
Cunningham that saved the Tigers from
being played to a scoreless tie by . Ford
ham recently. With but a few minutes
left to play in the second half of the game,
Princeton recovered the ball on a fumble.
Cunningham was called upon to drive the
oval over the crossbar for the three points
that meant saving his team from the Ig
nominy of a tie with a supposedly weaker
eleven, and he was equal to the task.
Moreover, . proof positive that the Tiger
coaches had determined upon the. field goal
to save their charges was reflected In that
Cunningham essayed the play . twice.
shortly after the beginning of the second
half, but failed. Gargan of Fordham, also
tried to record a trio of points for his team
by the field goal medium.
But if the field goal saved Princeton It
was also responsible for preventing a no
score game being played by one of Its big
Occidental collegiate sisters.. Michigan
defeated Case by a 8-0 total. Captain
Allerdlce booted a successful place kick
from the thirty-five yard line after a long
run by Lawton had carried the leather
within striking distance. Tobin of Dart
mouth tallied a field goal against Bow-1
doln, sending his team's score up. to 16-0.
Larry Vorhis made It possible for Penn
sylvania State to tie the Carlisle Indians
by booting a field goal. Incidentally
Llbby, the aborigines' quarterback, es
sayed four times to achieve the three-point
score. Vorhis also attempted another goal
toward the close of the tame, but failed.
Alverson of Rutgers caused three points
to be chalked against the Navy's record
by his field goal In last Saturday's con
test. Other Instances of the popularity of
the play were afforded" by games In the
west. Western Reserve downed Miami by
a 8-0 score; 'Missouri triumphed' over the
Kansas Athletlo club through the same
medium, while Iowa was forced to use the
play to beat Cornell college.
From the foregoing It Is easy to realize
that the field goal will In all probability
play an important part In the deciding of
matches this autumn as was the case In
1908. Despite the fact that two sucoessful
boots from the field are necessary to off
set the six points accruing from a touch
down and successful try for the additional
count garnered by an opponent, the team
blessed with a capable booter, all other
things being equal, Is decidedly at an ad
vantage. A recovered fumble or other un
expected situation developing within, the
danger sons In the course of a game places
the weaker team In a position to do
things.
It Is Interesting to figure out what would
have been the scores of several of last
year's games In which the field gtoal
played a part had its value been three
points Instead of four. Yale tied Brown,
10-10, but if the field goal had only counted
three points the Ells would have won by
a 10-9 total. The Lafayette-Brown match
would have ended 8-6, Instead of 8-6, In
favor of the eastern combination.
In twenty-three other games where the
goal from the field figured, the new rule
would have changed the result materially.
The Indians, Michigan, Harvard, Annapolis
and Lafayette profited most by the goal
from the field. In twenty-five games It
was a scoring factor forty-four times.
Disregarding the value of the play In
points. It Is Interesting to note by refer
ence to the appended table that In five
games Indians 12, Syracuse 0; Lafayette 8,
Brown 0; Indians 16, Navy 6; Harvard 4,
Yale 0; and Amherst 4, Williams . 0 the
winners did all their scoring by drop or
placement kicking. The same play en
abled twelve teams to prevent shutouts.

ITHACA. N. Y., Oct 16. Herbert C.
Young, captain of the Cornell cross-country
team, will also lead the track team. Eddie
Cook, the Olymplo pole vaulter, was elected
to the place last spring, but did not return
to college. Young won his "C'-two years

NFW YORK. Oct. 18 Now that some
thing- definite is known ot tha plans of
sir Thnma.ii I .Id ton yachtsmen will prob
ably delay making up tbelr minds about
next season's sDort. A cud race year
Interferes somewhat with the rac
ing in the general classes, as many yachts
men who would ordinarily ouua yacnis
to race themselves prefer to have some
steamer or power boat and watch the
racing in the big class, which is always
spectacular.
A cup race under the new rules, how
vcr, will not be as spectacular as under
the old ones. The defenders and the
challenger will not have the towering mass
of canvas that the Reliance had, but will
h va.chta nearly of the slse of the Queen.
The Reliance Bpread about 16,000 square
feet of canvas, while the Queen has 11.0U0
square feet. It does not matter though
what slse the yachts are. The fact that
thv ara racine: for the America's cup,
that it is a battle between the best ot
Britain and the best of the United States,
will make It important enough to attract
the attention . of all the yachtsmen ou
both sides, of the Atlantic .
Since Blr Thomas sent his last challenge
a change has taken place In the New York
Yacht club, and many who were opposed
to him two years ago are now In favor
of arranging a race and reviving the
battles for the America's cup, which has
been held in this country since 1SBL There
are' still many, however, and among them
are the leaders in the club, who ars
opposed to Blr Thomas. They ars willing
to arrange a race, and there is no doubt
that if some other yachtsman were to
send a challenge and ask for a race under,
the present rules the challenge would bs
accepted, but they think that Sir Thomas,
after having tried three times and tailed,
should sUp aside.
to this the friends of .Sir
Thomas, says that he has waited now
for six years and no other yachtsman hss
shown any disposition to take up the fight
and that Sir Thomas has shown that he
Is not monopolising the racing at an.
Some think that the Jrlsh baronet Is
simply trying to keep in the public's eye
and that he is a shrewd advertiser. The
answer to that la that ha does not have
to advertise his business and that a man
who can entertain and be entertained by
the -King of England and the German
Dmperor and other big men in Europe,
does not have to race for the America's
cup to obtain social recognition.
Sir Thomas, when he was here a few
years ago resented the imputation that
he was simply advertising, and he then
asked If members of the New York Yacht
club. Who had been mentioned as builders
of defenders, and who were . engaged In
trade might not fairly be accused of adver
tising their wares because of the promin
ence they would get through the race,
(haaae la Hales.''
The point ot contention between tha
yachtsmen of the two countries Is the
rule of measurement. The deed of gift
says that the cup is to be sailed for under
tha rules of the club that hejds the cup.
and that Is since it was won In 1S6L the
measurement rules have been changed five
times. Four of those rules have been
made to apply to raoes for the America's
cup. Since the last race the rules have
been changed again and they favor a boat
of wholesome ype and not a freak with
long overhangs and enormous sail area,

which is good for nothing but racing.
The clubs that have sent challenges on
behalf : of Sir Thomas have asked for a
race under the present rules of tha New
York Yacht club, and that club has practi
cally said that the rules are not . good
for the . sport and have declined to ac
cept, the challenge,
Not only has the New York Yacht club
adopted the present rule, but all the clubs
on the Atlantic coast, on the lakes, on
the Gulf and the far West now have the
same rule, which la really a national one,
and yet the New York Yacht club has
declined to test the rule in an interna
tional race.
When Sir Thomas presents his challenge,
a meeting of the club will be called, and
at that meeting it is possible that a
committee will ba appointed with power
either to accept or decline the challenge.
It is possible that there will be a fight
in the club, and should the supporters of
Sir Thomas be in the majority tha com
mittee will be instructed to accept.
In the event of the challenge being ac
cepted and a race arranged for next
season defenders will have to be built.
A ninth foot schooner is now being built
at Herreshoff's for Alexander S. Cochrane,
owner of the Avenger. Work has just
been started on that yacht and It would
not require much alteration of the plans
to make her a ninety foot sloop and eligible
to defend the cup. There la no doubt
that a syndicate will ba formed to build
a defender, and it is possible that F.
Smith and the Hanan brothers might havs
boats. Cup yachts under the present rules
will not cost nearly as much as under the
old rule, and when their racing for the
big trophy is over they will still be good
for other racing and cruising. The three
Shamrocks and two Valkyries are broken
up and of the American boats the Defen
der and Constitution are broken up. The
Columbia and Reliance are the only two
left and they are of no use.
