THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOUItlTAE TUESDAY EVENING. ATTQTTST 11. 1903. FOOTBALL TALK. Coming Season at Washburn Seems Promising. While Good Hen Passed Out More Are on List. JOHNSON WILL STAY. Stalwart Fullback Expected to Be in School. Brethour and Munford Will Be In Old Positions. LVlTrflu Shall Project. Washburn college for the coming seasTn look Pl8lnKl,?erfa8T"a healthy bunch of substitutes last sea son" who were almost classy enough for first team positions, who will ap pear in the lineup this season nd will make a good team a possibility. "The authorities at the local college .re arranging for football practice to commence before the opening of the school, possibly the first week in Sep tember. John Robb. who has played the right end possition for the past three seasons, is captain of this year team and will toe back by the latter part of the present month. Walter Stahl, who will manage this seasons team, has written m that he will be back September 1. Stahl is busy this summer campaign ing for the office of county attorney of Rio county and recently won the nomination at the Republican pri maries. Coache Weede is already here, having opened his dental offices at the close of last season, and he is enjoy ing a big practice. Captain Robb will of course play one of the ends, preferably right end. He Is an experienced and aggressive play er and one of the surest tacklers on the team. Osborne Larimer, who sub bed at end last season, will probably make the other end. Larimer, who 19 left handed, was the surest man on last season's team when it came to handling forward rasses and often was nut into the game on this account. He made his "W" last season. Of last season's linemen. Brethour and Mun ford will be back and will probably play their old positions at guards, but may be shifted to tackles. Brethour was the sensation of the line last sea son and Is expected to do even greater work this season. Templeton. the two hundred pound sub of last season, will he back and may get a position at guard. Reasln, another promising sub of last season, is sure of a place. t.-i nrl,r ini fVnm wlnnlnsr his J r n n i y. 11 o umj r W" bv an injury to his shoulder while in practice. Hoaglln, who sub bed on the team two years ago and played a strong aggressive game, will be back and will get a chance In the line. Codding, the most promising freshman guard last year, will be back. He may play center. In the back field Hope, who for two seasons has been the generally ac cepted all-star quarterback of the state will call the signals at his old Heep Your Mood Cool by Right Kind of Food and Enjoy Warm Weather t r It's largely a matter of selecting the hot weather diet with reason. Summer is Nature's season of activity seed-time, growing-time, harvest time a time of expansion, energy and Man is influenced to do his part to put forth greater effort because activity is in the very air. BUT caution is necessary to avoid excessive heat from combustion (digestion, of heavy, greasy food, (Nature's way of generating body-heat in winter) in addition to the heat of the summer atmosphere. Q RAPE-NUT Is the Ideal Food for Hot "Weather because being largely predigested (and con centrated) in the making at the factory, it is quickly absorbed, a small quantity affording great endurance with little effort in digesting it. Grape-Nuts, made of Whole Wheat and Barley, contains only the natural elements of these cereals, including the phosphate of potash grown in the grain for rebuilding waste cells, especially of brain and nerves. Try for breakfast, lunch or supper: A Little Fruit; A Soft Boiled Egg; Saucer of Grape-Nuts and Cream; Slice of Crisp Toast, and a Cup of Postum, Hot or iced, with Sugar and Lemon. Surprising how cool, yet full of healthy energy and "go" one feels on such a meal, no matter what the weather. "There's a Reason" Postum Cereal Company, Limited, Battle Creek, Mica., U.S.A. position. Johnston, who played In the line last season, will probably be back although he decided to quit the game last season. He will be tried at full back In all probability as he played several game in thia position last sea son. McVey. who played quarter at Cooper college last season and is counted a wonder, will be in the back field probably at one of the halfback positions. Karnes, Bradfleld and Fos ter, who were the mainstays of the second team backfield last season, will be back in Washburn this year and will try for positions behind the line. Lee, Dunn and Weidling, three players of ability, will try out this fall. Lee is the only one of this trio who has play ed at Washburn, but the other two are old men at the game. Coaeh Btahl has written that he will bring a. couple of "huskies" with him when he returns to Topeka this fail and these men will probably be given a a chance on the second team. The field will be improved with a new fence and the athletic quarters will be fitted up In better shape than ever. Last season waa a financial suc cess and the players this season win have better facilities as a result. A strong schedule has been provided for this year. Nine games have been booked and another is a possibility and of the nine games seven will be played in Topeka. The only out of town games will be played at St. Mary's and Lawrence. Three of the games will be "big" ones. The biggest game in Topeka will be with Drake university and will be played October 31. The Drake team was the champion of Iowa last season. Bennie Owen and his Sooners will be the Thanksgiving atraction and this will be a great game. The K. U. game which is prob ably the biggest game of the season on account of the rivalry between the two schools will be played at Lawrence this season, the date for the game be ing November 7. The entire schedule for the season as announced by Man ager Stahl is as follows: Sept. 27 Topeka high school at To peka. Oct. 9 Kansas State Normal at To peka. Oct. 10 Open date at Topeka. Oct. 17 Haskell Indians at Topeka. Oct. 22 St. Marys at St. Marys. Oct. 81 Drake at Topeka. Nov. 7 Kansas university at Law rence. Nov. 14 Falrmount at Topeka. Nov. 21 K. S. A. C. at Topeka.

In this connection it will be in teresting to the many friends of Mr. Kurtz Kellam, lately of Kansas City, to learn that he has taken a special position with the Aetna and will be the representative of that splendid in surance company in Topeka. Judge Parker Headed for Seattle. San Francisco, Aug. 11. Judge Alton B. Parker has arrived here by automobile from Los Angeles. He Is headed for Seattle to attend the gath ering of the National Bar association during the latter part of the month. Judge Parker has been asked to ad dress the Democrats of this city but Is not anxious to do so. He will go to Yosemite before starting north. THEY WILL SEE. Council to Investigate the Na tural Gas Situation. Let People Know Before Cold Weather Sets In. CIRCUSES MAY COME IN Prohibitive License Tax Sealed Down. Anti "Puller In" Ordinance Re ported and Referred. Councllmen Miller, Fraser and Kutz, as a committee representing the coun cil will attempt to find out in advance of winter if the pumping facilities and other improvements made by the Kan sas Natural Gas company are ade quate to furnish the city with natural gaa without undergoing another ex perience like that of last winter. The committee was appointed after a resolution was introduced by Coun cilman Fraser and passed by the coun ell. His resolution follows: "Whereas, During the winter of 1907 and 1908 the gas company that has the franchise to furnish natural gas to the consumers of the city of Topeka prov ed absolutely nnable to supply the peo ple of the city with sufficient gas for heating purposes, during the periods when the physical comfort or nun dreds ot people absolutely demanded it; ana "Whereas, The sole reason for such failure and incapacity was by the gas company charged to the lack of the ca paclty of the pumping stations located upon the pipe lines between the city of Topeka and the gas fields of Kan sas: and. "Whereas. Said gas company faith fully promised to enlarge its pumping plants so as to Increase its capacity to the extent that it would be able to furnish gas in such quantities and at all times and seasons as the comfort and convenience of the consumers de manded: and. "Whereas, It Is a matter of serious importance to the people of Topeka to know whether they shall rely upon the gas company to furnish gas for heat ing purposes and not supply them selves with fuel; -and. "Whereas, Another winter is fast ap proaching: therefore, be It, "Resolved, That the mayor be and he is hereby Instructed to appoint a committee of three with instructions to wait upon the officers of said com pany and request a full report from them as to what they have done in the way of increasing their capacity to fur nish natural gas to the people of this city and to Investigate such report as may be made by them, and to report to the council what in their judgment they deem to be the capacity of said company to furnish gas for the com ing year. The legal opinion of the city attor ney was filed with regard to the right of the council to declare the gas com pany's franchise forfeited and to amend by Inserting- a maximum rate lower than now specified of 45 cents. The city attorney is in Colorado and so was not present last evening. Nothing 1 K-MIIjLIOX-YKAK-OLD Chicago, Aug. 11. A ten million year old "bull dog" fish is the latest discov ery of scientists at the University "of Chicago. President Samuel W. Willis. ton, head of the university paleon tology department, who found the spec imen in the bed Of the Smoky Hill river in Kansas, placed it on exhibi tion yesterday at Walker museum. The fish is the only complete specimen in the world of an extinct species, known as the Portheus Mollosus. Its facial resemblance to the bulldog is responsi ble for Its name, according to Profes sor Williston. The discovery Is regard ed as Important by Professor Williston because only small parts of the species have heretofore been discovered. The will be done with the opinion beyond referring It to the gas and' electric lights committee which has now pend ing before the above two questions of forfeiture and reduced rates. Though no movement was made last night it waa stated by the mayor to be proba ble that counsel would be engaged by the city to advise It in addition to the city on the phase of forfeiture and low er maximum rates. Walton W. Gllmore was awarded the contract for the paving of Locust street from Fourth street to Eighth avenue and the repavlng of Bast Sixth ave nue from the east end of the viaduct to Locust street. Gilmore's bids were: Repavlng Bast Sixth avenue. $12,04; paving Locust street from Fourth street to Sixth avenue. $4,531.11: paving Locust street from Sixth to Eighth av enues, t4.186.40. This is exclusive of the concrete-cement curb and gutter. The curb and gutter contract was awarded to Lllttilohann and Polks for $4,634.81. On the paving J. H. Max well was the next lowest bidder, being separated by but $3.50 on one stretch of the paving. The third bidder was Hasklns Ramsey. The work on the paving will com mence immediately following the sign ing of the contract by the mayor. The contract for the construction of a small sewer on Polk street, between Douthltt and Fourteenth street was awarded to J. H. Maxwell for $212.30. The construction Is necessitated by rea son of the faulty construction of the Fifth ward sewer which is one of the fraud sewers and is built by the city without expense to the property owners there. No contract was made for the Bid die creek improvement work. All of the bids submitted were in excess of the estimates prepared by the city en gineer and the latter will have to draft new plans. The first plans were based on the low price of cement which pre vailed a few weeks ago but In the meantime cement has advanced .from $1 to $1.40. If the United States government hasn't any circus advance agents on its staff of diplomatic agents they should send in an order for that brand right away. For the red under good edges they are certainly it. A large, expansive act ing man, with a soft voice and a kind ly face drifted into the city hall Mon day afternoon. He Inquired particular ly concerning the license for circuses and also for the names of a number of the councllmen. Then he drifted out. Last evening he sat on a front seat in the space reserved for spectators in the council chamber and carefully watched the council as it took up an ordinance amending the existing one covering the license asked of circuses. The amended ordinance proposed tp re duce the license charges from $500, $400, and $300 for the three ring, two ring and one ring circuses respectively to $300, $260 and $200. Then the man on the front seat got up and said that To peka was in a class all by itself when it came to a $500 license charge, that Chicago, Cleveland and many other large cities asked nothing at all or only a nominal sum. After arguing in a very persuasive way the man who said he represented one of the large circus organizations sat down and watched his diplomacy win out as the councllmen passed the amended or dinance with a rush. Since the increas ed license charges were authorized by the council last year the larger cir cuses have carefully avoided Topeka and the decision was based last even ing on this experience. The sideshows which are attached to circuses had their license scaled down from $15 to $10 and Wild West sftows or circuses approximating that character were as sessed $100. rurfng May, June, July, August and September stable refuse must be re moved daily, Sunday excepted, from all stables in the city where 13 or more horses are kept. During the remainder of the year, at leaat three times dur ing the week. An ordinance covering thia waa adopted by the council. An ordinance providing for specifica tions for uniform cement sidewalks on Kansas avenue was introduced and re ferred to the committee on public works. The specifications provide that the concrete must be 5 Inches thick of one part cement to two parts sand and five parts of Joplln flint or hard lime stone or granite, the largest' pieces to be less than 14 Inch thick. On top of this there must be a finishing coat K of an inch thick of one to one cement mortar carefully troweled. The merchants who go out on the side walk and drag their unwilling custom ers into their stores will be interested in the following ordinance which waa drawn up under instruction of the council and referred to .the committee on Judiciary: It shall be unlawful for any per son to solicit for or hawk any goods, wares or merchandise In front of any store, shop or other place of business in the city of Topeka, or to call to any person passing by for the purpose of selling any goods, wares or merchan dise. "Any firm violating any of the provisions of this ordinance shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and. upon conviction thereof, shall be. pun ished by a fine In any sum not less than $5 nor more than $100 for each offense and pay the coats of the ac tion and stand committed to the city prison until such judgment is complied with." A petition to pave Kansas avenue from Euclid avenue to Twenty-third street to be 85 feet wide from Euclid to Nineteenth and SO feet wide the re-, FISH EXHIBITED AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO. fish lived in the cretaceous age, and is believed to be entitled to the ten mil lions years assigned it. The only por tions of the body missing were small sections of the caudal fins and the end of one dorsal fin, which have been re stored. The specimen was mounted by Dr. Paul C. Wilson of the university paleontology department and hung be side the recently acquired Mossaur rep tile, also found by Professor Willis ton. In its present form it weighs 2,000 pounds. The skeleton is 15 feet long. The Smoky Hill river region was found to be rich in paleontological specimens by Professor Williston and his party. A number of valuable discoveries were made, and the best of the lot will be mounted and exhibited at Walker museum. The only specimen of the mainder of the distance was referred to the streets and walks committee. The request of A. L. Furman to operate an employment agency was granted upon the recommendation of the committee on license. W. E. Potter of 1020 Madison street thinks the city should pay his plumb ing bill of $10 for lowering a water service pipe because city employes told him it was unnecessary to lower the pipe and. therefore he did not dj the work himself as he could have done.. The bill' was submitted to tlw judiciary committee. The license collector reported collec tions amounting to $302.50. W." H. Gilflllan. food inspector, col lected $163.44 during the month of July. An ordinance levying special assess ments for sidewalks laid this year was introduced and adopted. The city engineer is Instructed to examine the cause of the accumulation of the water at Kansas avenue and Kioua street and -report the expense of carrying off the impounded water.

Daring a Voyage From Portland, Ore., to New Vork. New- Tork, Aug. 11. Deep laden with Oregon pine, the four masted steel bark Acme, an American ship, with an American crew is anchored within the grateful shelter of Staten Island. She arrived there after a voyage of 111 daya from Portland, Ore. The trip was replete with inci dents. The stirring time for those on board really began on the trip from Kobe, Japan, to Portland, where she went to load for this port. For seven days the vessel rode a terrific sea practically on her beam enda, with her crew working like mad between decks shifting ballast to bring the Acme back to an even keel. So far over did she go that her main and lower topsail yard arms dragged in the sea. 1 Captain A. F. McKay was obliged to have the crew chop away the stand rigging of the fore, main and miszen top gallant masts with their yards. The Acme's time In making the trip from the Pacific, said Captain McKay might be marked by moons for they sailed tinder five full moons on the way around. Thirteen days were spent rounding the Horn. The extremity of South America waa hidden all thia time in a dense fog. The Acme Is 8,288 tons, one of the biggest sailing vessels under the American flag. Her craw la Ameri can, many of them having gone to San Francisco to help re-build that city. They shipped to get east. Constipation deranges more lives with nervousness than any other abnormal condition. WHEAT FLAKE CELERY is made from the whole grain of the wheat, celery infused, mak ing it nature's evacuant. M For by all 6roeer mm "bulldog" fish discovered previous to the Chicago specimen is in the pos session of the American museum at New York. .According to -Professor Wlllistpn, this consists of parts of dif ferent fishes, and is therefore not near ly so valuable as his find. Since Pro fessor Wllliston's discovery another In complete example, of the Portheus Mol. losus has been found by scientists from the University of Kansas. "This specimen is chiefly valuable because it is the only complete one In existence," said Professor Williston. '"It is impos sible to state the appearance of the fish in life beyond the fact that it resembled somewhat the modern tar pon. It was carnivorous. We mounted it in precisely the position In which it was dug up. EASTTOPEKAIIfllKI Items for the East Topeka column ma 1 be telephoned to Ind. phone 621.
