KANSAS And MISSOURI LOST.
IOWA BEAT THE JAYHAWkERS AND
NEBRASKA THE TIGERS.
Both Games Were Desperately Con-
tested and the Defeat of Kansas
WINS Something of 81 FIul<e
Owls Beat Pastimes.

Iowa City, Ia, Oct. 26.-tSpecial) The
Western Intercollegiate Football League
season opened here to-day, and the Uni
yersity of Iowa team defeated the Kansas
university eleven by score of TO 0.
The game was the most exciting and
most stubbornly contested battle ever seen
on the Iowa City gridiron. The Kansans
put up a great game. They had the ball
on Iowa,s ten yard line three times, but
were driven back by Iowa's superb playing.
The touchdown was scored six minutes be-
fore the game was called on trick play,
resulting in thirty-five yard run by Hol-
brook the colored champion sprinter of
Iowa. The features of the game were Hoi-
brooks and Meyers long runs, Stanton's
tackling. Thomas punts and the daring
nlays of Coldren, in one of which his head
was badly hurt. The best playing 1or
Kansas was done by Hamill, Foster, Hes
Ter and Baine, and 1T was particularly
strong playing, too. Baine. the Indian hall-
back, did gilt-edged tackling. HIS work
has never been surpassed on the Iowa city
gridiron.
The game was a cosropoltan contest,
and, strangely enough, the negro anu 'he
Indian players carried off the honors OF
the day. All in all. the two teams We're
very evenly matched, and although the
Iowans won, as described above, the gen
eral impression of the unprejudiced spec
tators was that the victory was much IN
the nature of a 'fuke," owing to the TACT
that the new trick took by surprise the
Kansas ends and caught them playing IN
leaving a clear field for the runner. Inc
Kansans had the ball in Iowa territory
a great deal more frequently than the
Hawkeye men occupied the Kansas ground:
The Kansas team was within six YARDS OIL
the Iowa goal line at one time, and Within
ten yards twice. The Iowa men then
braced up, however, and, making des-
perate stand, pushed their opponents PACK
and finally captured the bali on GOWNS
and punted to safer territory.
The game was delayed over ana over
because of injured men falling, put oespi.e
the frequency of these "lay-outs' the con-
fest was not a rough one, in the sense
that brutal treatment was accorded elther
eleven. The 1900 students OF the iowa
university are wild with joy tonight, ana
are holding jubilee with brass band' Don

OWLS BEAT THE PAsTIMEs.
ment Opened on the Grand
Alleys Last Night.

The third week of the bowling tourna-
ment opened last night on the Grand alleys
with a game between the Owls and Pas
times. The Owls with their regular team
on the alleys for the first time this sea-
son figured so much the strongest that
the game looked to be an easy one for
them and they did win rather handily, but
their score was hardly up TO the standard
expected of sucn a strong candidate for
championship honors. The pins were con-
trary and a very small percentage Of
strikes was secured in comparison with
the number of good balls whicn were
rolled. In this respect the Pastimes suf-
fered more than the Owls. They had the
hardest kind of luck on strike balls and it
is a remarkable fact that they did not get
a solitary double strike in the entire game,
something which has never before hap
pened in a tournament game in Kansas
City so far as can be remembered. The
score at the end was 2,417 to 2,2i9 in favor
of the Owls, giving them margin of l6S
pins.
Whitney, of the Owls, was the only bowl
er of either team to clear the 500 mark,
finishing high man of the game with 5l4.
Stranathan, who has been sick and was
not in condition to bowl his game, did
nobly, lacking a single pin of reaching 800.
Deiterich bowled a good but unlucky game.
while both Jordan and Captain Crider. who
was low man for the Owls, fell considera-
bly, below their average. For the Pastumes
Cody was the high man with 4S3. closely
followed by Bray with All. Captain Conn
brought up the rear for his team with 4O3.

reached Kansas City yesterday, after a
long and arduous ride on his wheel, in
which he covered $50 miles. Mr.. Pate's
route took him through Eastern Colorado.
Southern Kansas, Oklahoma, and back
through Eastern Kansas to Kansas City.
Most of the road was pretty rough, and
as he was on a wheel geared to &c he found
it pretty hard work in spots. Four nights
he missed connection with towns or farm
houses and was forced to sheep out on the
open prairie with no blanket but the stars.
His only mishap of any consequence was
in La Junta, Col. where, in coming down
a steep hill, he ran into pile of curbing
stones and skinned himself badly. besides

A Legal Shooting.

SALT LIKE, UTAH, December l5.-Pat
Coughlin was executed in Rich County,
this State, to-day, for the murder Of Dep
uty Sheriff Dawes and Constable Stagg in
July, 1895. Coughlin chose shooting as the
manner Of death. He was pinioned,
blindfolded and seated on stationary
chair, and six depnties fired stimuli
taneously, aiming at the heart, over
which piece of white paper was fas-
tened. Every shot pierced the mark and
death was instantaneous. Coughlin
was about 25 years of age, native OF
Pennsylvania, and came to this State
when quite young. For some years
he was considered a hard character.
In July, 1895, he and another young man
named Fred George stole q number Of
horses and wero pursued by officers.
For over q week they eluded capture,
and several times, when brought to bay,
fired upon their pursuers, escaping fur
ther into tho mountains. They were
eventually surrounded in little cabin,
and when called on to surrender fired re-
peatedly, killing the two officers named
and wounding others before the posse
retired. Several days later they were
captured one hundred and fifty miles
from the scene Of the killing. Both were
tried on the capital charge and Coughlin
was sentenced to be executed, and George
to life term in the penitentiary. Cough
Inns execution took place near the spot
where the murders were committed in
the mountains.

The Scramble for Office.

COLUMBIA, December 20.-As there are
but few weeks before the Legislature
assemblies, the politicians are busy dis
cussing who is to get some of the import
ant positions that body will have to give
away. The first in honor and importance
is the Speakership, and q number ofgen-
tlemen have been mentioned as possible
successors to Speaker Gary. Among
those most talked Of are Representatives
Crum, of Barnwell, and Garris, Of Collie
ton. Both of these gentlemen have
friends who are pushing their candidacy,
but it is not certainly known that either
will actually stand for the position. Some
of Mr.. Crum's friends state that he posi-
lively will not be candidate, while 9th.
ers insist that he will, and are writing
letters to members-elect asking for their
support of him. Whether Mr.. Garris is
doing anything to promote his interests
is not known. There is no objection to
Speaker Gary, so far as is known, and
the probabilities at this time seem favor
able to his reelection.
There will, however, be pretty fight
for the clerkship of the House. Besides
being position of honor, this office has
a very comfortable salary attached to it,
and, in pecuniary way, it is the most
desirable of Legislative offices. Clerk
Gray, who has performed the duties of
the position almost continuously since
the beginning of the Reform era, is to
have serious opposition for the position.
Mr.. Jesse II. CAN'T. Of Spartanburg, edi-
tor of the Cotton Plant, has been laying
his wires for sometime, in order to make
connection with the clerks desk, and his
friends appear to be very confident of
success Clerk Gray is equally confident
that he will again occupy his accustomed
place in the House. The indications are
that this will be the most hotly contested
fight Of them all.
A successor to Superintendent Neal, Of
the Penitentiary, is also to be elected at
this session. Representative W harton, Of
Laurens, is formally announced as can
didate for the position. Col. Neal, who
has made such success Of his conduct of
the institution, will again stand for cleo
ton. While Mr.. Wharton is good
man and would fill the position accepta-
bly,, the indications are that Col. Neal will
be his own successor.
The Senate will have to elect a sergeant
alarms, as the incumbent, ]. G. Elliott,
of Lancaster, will resign. There are, no
doubt, any number of fpatriots willing and
working to fill the place, but they have
not announced their candidacy yet, prob
ably making q still hunt among the Sen
ators.-Nc1US and Courier.

said Mr.. Comstock "but the truth about
it is that we are to give him great deal
more. 1t is great venture, but it will
be a great financial success. My princi-
pal trouble is to keep the tickets out OF
the hands of speculators. Only yester-
day received telegram from fellow
in New Orleans saying that he had just
sent me $1,000 for q block of seats. I
wired him back that the tickets were on
sale at the regular place in New Orleans,
and he could get them in the regular way,
at the regular price. The money has not
reached me yet, but when it does shall
simply send it back at his expense"

While we sympathize with Cuba in her
struggle for independence and home rule,
we believe President Cleveland and his
Cabinet are in the right. This country,
and especially the South. does not want
to become involved in war with any
country. We have nothing to gain and a
great deal to lose. The United States
does not dread war with Spain, for the
world knows that Spain would soon be
conquered. The interests of other ma
tions might be involved during the war,
and then what would be the consequent
ces? Commerce would stop, foreign
trade would cease to great extent, and
the cotton producers would be the great
sest sufferers. Fi,zhugh Lee is represent
ing this great country of ours in Cuba.
He knows the condition of things there,
and we believe that President Cleveland
is being governed by what Gen. Lee
says. When Gen. Lee says the United
States must interfere, his advice will be
carried out. We are willing to leave the
matter in the hands of Grover Cleveland
and Fitzhugh Lee.
