pital List for Friday
Game.
ALUMNI TO ATTEND GAME
The chances of the Bellevue coaches
sending any kind of representative
lineup against Peru this afternoon are
slim. Half the members of the squad

the squad through"' Sonie stiff signal
drill this week, and has been giving
ut a new line ot plays to use against

around to make p laces for the men,
laid up. Johns was used for a short
time yesterdajf evening at Daugherty's
tackle, the latter going to Williams'
end.
A large. number of Peru alumni is
expected tp attend the game this aft

Herrmann Replies
To Fultz Request
Cincinnati, 0., Nov. 9. August
Herrmari, chairman of the National
Base Ball commission, today issued
a statement. .replying to. a request
by David Fate president of the Base
Ballplayers''. Fraternity, that some
Dlavers contracts be changed to' pre
vent players injured in the services of
a club, being suspended uncompen
sated during their illness. Mr. Her
rman's statement say in part:
"This request on the part of Mr.
Fultz in my judgment is wholly un
waranted and uncalled for and creates
a false impression in the minds of the
base ball public to-wit: That they
may be given to understand that the
practice now is that players injured
in' the service of a club, after a cer
tain period, may be suspended with
out compensation. This is not a fact
and the commission has at all times
ruled that a player must be compen
sated when injured in the service of
a club, regradless of the length of
the period of his injury, or else be
given his release after a certain
period."

Danny Maher, Famous
, American Jockey, Dies
- London, Nov. 9. Danny Maher,
the American jockey, died at a nurs
ing home in London early today after
a lingering illness, which caused his
retirement from the turf three years
ago.
Danny Maher had the greatest rec
ord of any jockey on the English or
American turfs in recent years. He
was a- star performer on English race
courses for nine years prior to his re
tirement. In this time he rode to!
victory in three derbys, his mounts'
being Rock Sand, Cicero and Spear-1
mint. He also captured the Oaks in j
1916 with Keystone II; the Doncasterj
St. Leger in 1903 with Rock Sand
and the same classic race in 1909 with
Bagardo. He was reputed to be
worth a large fortune as the result of
his turf victories..
v.When You Have a Cold.
. It is when you have a severe cold
that you appreciate the good qualities
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Mrs.
Frank Crocker, Fana, 111., writes:
"Our five-year-old son Paul caught
a severe cold last winter that settled
on his lungs and he had terrible
coughing spells. We were greatly
worried about him as the medicine we
gave him did not help him in the least.
A neighbor spoke so highly of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy that I got
a bottle of it. The first dose bene
fited him so much that I continued
giving it to him until he was cured."

(Correspondence of The Associated 'rps.
Tokio, Sept. 30. The Toyo Kisen
Kaisha is building two large passen

tons gross register, which will be
used in service to San Francisco. One
will be called the San Francisco Maru
but the name of the second has not'
yet been selected. The liners will
have a length of about 636 feet, or
about thirty-six feet longer than the
Empress of Russia or the Empress of
Asia, the two big sister liners of the
Candian Pacific Steamship comprany.
They will have quadruple expansion
engines and each will afford accom
modation for about 300 salon oassen-

third class. The speed is estimated at
twenty-three knots, making them the
fastest on the Pacific.
The company will also build as

It is also learned here that Great

100 steamers in an effort to make up
for the depletion caused by the raids
of enemy submarines. It will be im
possible for Japan to turn out such a
large number of ships, but the Japan
ese shipyards are exerting every ef

needed in the carrying trade to South

President of Panama
Now Gets Loyal Support
Panama, Oct. 13. Following the
inauguration of President Valdes on
October 1 the contest over his elec
tion, in which the opposition en
deavored to the last to prevent his
acceptance by the United States gov
ernment appears finally to have
melted away. There is, indeed,
general feeling of relief that it is al
over and there is a very general
tendency to give the new president
loyal support.
Prsident Valdes has informed the
American minister that he intends to
push the investigation of the treasury
and customs scandals to a finish. He
appears also to be in svmoathv with
the minister's suggestions that it is
important to have a better system of
accounting throughout the govern
ment, but he lias not expressed any
willingness to have an outsider ap
pointed to take charge of this work
and to act as either fiscal adviser or
auditor witlvplenipotentiary powers,
as urged by the State department.
THEY ARE PAID TO BE GOOD

Henry Miller's grandchildren must
remain "sober and industrious" if
they expect to enjoy the estate left
by the California cattle king.
In his will Miller specified in de
tail what the conduct of his two
grandsons shall be. They are to en
gage in "useful and honorable busi
ness" or lose their thirds of his for
tune of $20,000,000. He goes to the
detail of prohibiting them from hy
pothecating their expectancy during
the lifetime of their parents, Mr. and
Mrs. J. Leroy Nickol, and also de
clares their estate forfeited if they
ever get inside a bankruptcy court.
The sum of $900,000 is eventually
to go to charities, but the bulk of
this is not to be distributed until the
death of Henry Miller's three grand
children. A fund of $15,000 is created, the
proceeds of which are to be distrib
uted at Christmas to the poor in
Gilroy, Cal., and a similar fund of
$25,000 for the poor of Brockenheim,

Cities Despite Raids
Panama, Oct. 11. Raids on gam
bling places which have been flour
ishing in Colon are being conducted
by Governor Ruben Arcia, who is the
governor of the province and has
powers superior to the alcalde of the
city. Two places have been raided,
and their property confiscated. Sim
ilar raids were made in Panama City
about a month ago. Governor Arcia
has declared that he will not stop till
gambling has been driven from the
city.
Arcia is one of the characters of
the isthmus. A comparatively young
man, he has made a fair fortune out
of cattle and lands, and his wealth
has placed him beyond the reach of
ordinary corruption. He ii a little
father to the peons all over the pro
vince, and has an extraordinary repu
tation for honesty. He ii on very
good terms wjjh most of the promi

have told him that he has ideals like
an American or European statesman,
and he seems to work hard to live up

GRANT SWAMPS HIS RIVAL
By A. R. OROH. -
Six precincts out of sixteen in

son, t32 Eli Buggins, who visited the
San Francisco exposition last year,
says he believes California will go for
Wilson Chairman Willcox claims
election of Hughes Eighty-five pre
cincts in Douglas county give
No, no, no, I aon't want to say that,
but I just can't get those dawgonned
election figgers out of my head. What
I wanted to say is that there have
been some mighty close presidential
elections in this grand republic of
ours, and then again some not so
close.
A man. who is older than I, re
calls the election of 1884, when
James G. Blaine, the "plumed
knight," was running against Grover
Cleveland. Some numbskull of a
preacher tried to inject the religious
element into pontics with trie result
that the candidate whom he favored
lost by just 1 14 popular votes. New
Vork was the pivotal state and it
was ten days before the count was
completed there and the state's elec
toral vote given to Cleveland, elect
ing him.
A "Tie" Vote.
In the early days of the republic
no man was nominated for vice pres
ident. The man receiving the sec
ond largest vote for president was
chosen vice president.
In 1800 Thomas Jefferson and
Aaron Burr each received 73 elec
toral votes. The house of representa
tives had to make the choice be
tween the two men and elected Jef
ferson president and Burr vice presi
dent. Thomas Jeffersosr, republican,
"snowed under" Charles C. Pinckney,
federalist, in 1804 with a vote of 162
to 14.
James Monroe did more than that
to J. Q. Adams in 1820, the electoral
vote standing: Monroe, 232; Ad
ams, 1.
Coining down to more modern
times, we find the most signal vic
tory was that of Abraham Lincoln
in 1864, when he ran against George
B, McClellan and secured 212 elec
toral votes to McClellan'a 21. The
"solid south" wasn't voting that year,
for the very good reason that it was
at war with the rest of the country.
What Grant Did.
When General U. S. Grant ran for
re-election in 1872 he got an elec
toral vote of 286 against his oppo
nent's 63.
The election of 1876 almost precipi
tated war. There was a dispute over
the votes of Florida, South Carolina,
Oregon and Louisiana. This was re
ferred to an electoral commission
composed of eight republicans and
seven democrats, which decided it so
that Hayes secured 185 and Tilden
184 electoral votes.
Roosevelt had a popular vote nf
,0;j,0 to marker s S.Uu7,911 in 191)4
and Taft had 7,678,908 to Bryan's
o,Hoy,iut in ivwo.
In 1912 Wilson received 6,293,019
and Taft and Roosevelt vote was
7,604,463.

of hours or mileage, as preferred by
the men, is the basis of compensation.
The bill recites the circumstances
surrounding the passage of the Adam
son law and claims that it is a mere
arbitrary increase in wages. The law,
says the bill, is unconstitutional and
void, because it is not a regulation
of interstate commerce, that it is a
mere experiment intended as a basis
for further legislation, that U de
prives the company of its liberty of
contract and right of property with
out due process of law, and that it
is unworkable and uncertain.
The bill devotes considerable space
to explaining why the company con
siders the law unworkable. It con
cludes withal statement that the rail
road is willing to guarantee employes
against loss pending final decision as
to the legality of the law.
The court is asked to indicate what
steps it shall take "by way of com
pelling special acts, srivintz bonds or
otherwise for the purpose of assur-
ing complete protection to all its em
ployes. On the other hand, complain
ant says if preliminary and final in
junction be denied and this com
plainant be compelled, under fear of
penalties of the said act, to adopt at
its own peril some construction of
the act involving payment of in
creased wages to considerable num
bers of its employes and if the act
shall substantially be declared invalid,
the loss thereby sustained by this
complainant can never be repaid in
any way.

Special Service to
Room Advertisers
Many people rent all their rooms from the first
two or three insertions of their ads, while others
advertise several days and get but a few calls.
A great deal depends on the way an ad is written
an advertisement which gives all the nice features
about a room will always bring more replies than
one only giving the location or phone number.
The Bee has a special ad writer whose services
any furnished room advertiser can have for the
asking.
