NOTES FROM THE KANSAS GAME.
The fraternities at the university gave
q hop for the Nebraska men. They re-
port fine treatment. Turner, the manly
fellow with the auburn locks, Was the
idol OF the ladies and only for the strict
orders from Coach Robinson he would
have INDUCED in many frivolities.
Nebraska played a good defensive
game but were totally unable to advance
the ball excepting by the runting of
Thorpe and Packard.
Whipple is getting in good form
again. He went in the second half and
played brilliant defensive game. His
tsckling was invariably sure and hard.
Kansas played their new tandem play
using both guards. They also kicked
three goals in a way entirely new to Ne
braska. The quarter touching the ball
to the ground and holding it in the air
to be kicked.
BUTTE NEBRASKA GAME.
Thursday afternoon Nebraska met
defeat at the hands OF the celebrated
Butte Giants, at NJ street park, by
sore Of 20-6. Even though somewhat
resided, the Nebraska men felt proud
of being able even to score against
them.
The Giants are the cracks OF the
west and are composed Of as fine speci
mems Of Drawn and muscle as ever
played on the gridiron. Nebraska
hardly expected to win against them.
She did nobIy. however. Denver failed
even to score against them, and Ne
braska's 6 points was surprise 20
them.
Butte won the toss and kicked the
ball fifty yarcs into Nebraska's terri
tory. Thorpe returned it in fifteen
yards, and Nebraska lost the bail on a
tumble. Butte took the ball and pushed
it close to Nebraska's goal line. Ne
braska's ball on downs, but Butte took
the bali or tumble, by Packard, and
within VI minutes after play began
made toucl AHn and Laswell kicked
goal. Score 81l
Shedd then n d the ball sixty
yards into Butte's II TORY and Bensen
returned it twenty Is. Nebraska
then took the ball on, hble and with
steady gains by 81 Robbins and
Benedict scored ch down and
Shedd kicked an y goal. Score &C.
From this time 10 the end Of the first
half Nebraska succeeded in keeping the
ball well down the field and time was
called with the ball within thirty yards
Of Butte's goal line.
In the second half Butte increased
the speed Of play and Nebraska held her
down to two touch downs; both kicks at
goal failed. Laswell was not in good
form and missed two easy goals. Thorpe,
Shedd and Benedict did s5mS nome.
nal tackling in the second hall. pack.
ard retired early in tho game and Jones
took his place at right half. Jones has
recovered and is getting his old form
and is showing up well. Butte's quarter,
Benson, retired in the second half and
Sullivan took his place. Nebraska's
line could be successfully assailed at
any point.
Butte's tandem interference was
superb and told heavily on Nebraska's
line. The rapidity Of play was phe.
nomenal.
The game was well attended but the
result was not surprising considering
the relative standing OF the teams.

UNIVERSITY NOTES.

The Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity
gave very pretty informal party FRI
day evening at their rooms in the Harris
block. A very pleasant evening was
spent in dancing. Miss Willoughby's
orchestra furnished the music. The
rooms were profusely decorated in cut
flowers, chrysanthemums and the colors
OF the fraternity royal purple and old
gold. Among those present were: Messrs.
Haughton, X. Sawyer, Green, Z. Sawyer,
Edminston. HOLDEN, Bartlett, Morrill,,
Thorpe. White, Du Frene, Wooster,
Kenny, Honey, Clapp, Harmon, Marine,
Corby and Farwell. Misses Weller of

The Sigma Chi Fraternity initiated
Mr.. Geo. HELLER, of Nebraska City, and
Ray Montgomery Of Oak, Neb., at their
chapter house on r street. After the
initiation, "feed" was INDUCED in by
the members of the fraternity. A num-
Der OF the alumni were present.
NOTES FROM THE GRIDIRON.
All interest now centres on the
Thanksgiving game at Omaha when Ne
braska and Iowa lock horns for suprem-
acy. The interest is intensified even in
the face of difficulties. The team has
been unfortunate, but Coach Robinson
and Manager Curry have done phenom-
email work in making something out Of
nothing. Nebraska expects to win the
pennant and she will have to do it by
piling up large score against Iowa. The
status of the league has changed but
very little although the events OF the
past week have not helped to brighten
the outlook for Nebraska.
Kansas ought to beat Missouri easily.
Iowa beat Kansas on a fiuke and Ne
braska beat Missouri.
Kansas has some very fine material,
with probably the strongest line of any
western team with some very strong
backs; having two substitute backs that
are fully equal to any men on the regu-
lar team behind the line.
Hector Cowan, although graduating
from Princeton in 80, has coached Kan
sas for three years and keeps fully up
with all the new plays.
Iowa is the heaviest team in the
league, composed OF players Of expert
ence. Their backs, too, are men Of ex.
eeptional ability. Holbrook, the negro
who plays one Of the backs, is said to be
Q whirlwind in defensive and offensive
play.
Bull's work is showing up well. Penn.
sylvania's latest scientific plays are GER
tain.y eliminating any weak points in

COLLECTOR RYAN SUED.-A suit Of
considerable interest has been brought
in Norfolk by NJ. A. Hoban, who does
business as McHugh & Co., in that city.
It is an action against William Ryan,
collector of internal revenue of that
district: district and his deputy, r: S: Rogki1,
the latter having headquarters in that
city. In 1895 the governments special
agents seized and held for week the
stock of McHugh g. Co. on the charge
that it contained packages that were
not properly stamped. AT the end Of
a week the stock, except the alleged
improperly stamped packages, was re-
leased to McHugh & Co., and three
months afterwards the packages were
also released. The firm now sues for
$4,000 damages claimed to have been
done its business and credit by said
seizure. The law, it is said, permits
only the seizure of questionable pack
ages and not whole stock.
