find out. Since being in Portland ia il,
Arlington has written to his Auburn
friends to como down and go his bail.

Nature.

Fort Scott, Nov. 2.-No trace has vet
been discovered which gives a clue to
the death of Elisha Brown of Bourbon
county who was killed at Humboldt

A coroner's jury has been sitting in
the case two days but failed to come to
a conclusion.
Brown is a young married man, q
years old. He was raised a few miles
north of Uniontown. Recently he has
been living north of Humboldt in Allen
county. Wednesday he was in Hum
bOldt and that evening he started home
IN company with a stranger whom he
met in town. He tied his team behind
the strangers buggy and got in to ride
with him. Late that night a man trav-
cling in q covered wagon, met Brown s
team about six miles south of Hum
boldt
1T was walking leisurely along with
out a driver. The next morning Brown
was found dead in a field along the
road, about a mile and a half south of
Hum boldt. He had been thrown over
the fence as had some of the contents
Of his wagon. His skull was fractured
by either a fall or a blow in the back Of
the head. and the trunk of his body was
badly bruised. 1t was at first thought
his team had run away and killed him,
but circumstances developed that
pointed to murder.
His body was brought to his old home
neigborhOod yesterday and buried last
evening.

Strong Kansas City Needles Win
Score 8 to O.

Kansas City, Nov. ITO the surprise
OF all the knowing ones, the strong Kan
sas university football team went down
in the dust Saturday before the crack
Kansas City team from the University
Medical college. The game was played
at Exposition ball park before a big
crowd Of football enthusiasts, and when
the whistle sounded for the conclusion
OF the last half the Medics had scored s,
while the boys from Kansas had only
a big goose egg to their credit.
The game was on the smuggling order
and one Of the toughest ever seen on
the local gridirOn. Both teams offended
in this particular many times, but the
slugging and foul tactics. Several play
ers were knocked out temporarily. and
one serious accident occurred, that of
Balm being thrown heavily to the
ground and his head injured.
Kansas did not present her strongest
team, the absence Of VOight and Hester
weakening the team greatly. Simpson
endeavored to play right guard in the
place Of Shorty Hammil and made a
failure. The backs of the Nedics
went over him at Will. He was handicap
ped by playing in a new position, but
that did not excuse the big gaps he left
open for the opposing team.
Walker, Williamson and Foster all
put up a. fast game, but the whole var
sity team seemed to lack snap and gin
ger, and did not put any life into the
game. During the last eight minutes of
brace, but that was the only time they
were in the game, as the AIedics kept
them on the defensive during both
halves
