the other.
There was a pause. Men were stand

stances, might have said something to
relieve a somewhat awkward predlca-

might come next. The senator's pow

obsolete rule that it is no part of

Then both smiled and nodded, which
was the signal to let go of hands. Bob
went down stairs to the lobby, where
he was surrounded by so or more of
the curious, who stared at him as if
he were a giant kangaroo. The sena-

MADE Over.

An irritable man can be worked over in
to quite a fellow if he is fed properly. The
lack of proper digestion sets up condi-
ton of brain, that in turn shows in worry
and fretfulness. Coffee is shown, in sci
entific experiments in artificial digestion,
to arrest the process of digestion and de-
lay and interfere in a serious manner
with the operations.
Persons with anything but the most
powerful digestive apparatus will find it
advisable to leave coffee out of their di-
etary and use Postum Cereal Food Cof-
fee. The change will remodel a
chronic in short order.

Kansas City, Nov. 22.-The K. S. L
team met defeat here Saturday at the
hands of the Kansas City Medics by
score of 2 to 0.
Neither team was able to cross its
opponents goal line. In the first half
Kansas man was forced over his own
line for a safety, giving the Medics
their two points.
Near the close of the game a Medic
player carried the ball foot across his
own line but the referee was several
yards away and was not sure of the
play.
A number of Medic players and one
of the head physicians of the college
acknowledged that a safety had been
made. Had this score been allowed,
the final score would have been to ?.
The work of the Kansas team was
not up to the standard of the earlier

TO MARKLETTERS PLAINLY
Postof1ce Department Reforming the
Cancellation of Mail.


Washington. Nov. 22.-The efforts made
by the postoffice department to reform
the careless practice existing in large
number of postoffices, in the cancellation
of mail matter, it expected to bring about
most important results. Already the
movement has borne fruit, for where be-
fore, according to the officials of the de-
partment, at the beginning of the admin
istra atiOn, 80 per cent OF the whole number
of postmarks on mail matter was practi-
cally illegible, the ratio has now been
brought down to less than 10 per cent.
First Assistant Postmaster General
Perry S. Heath is vigorously prosecuting
the reform and whenever complaints come
in about careless marking they are re-
ferred to the delinquent postoffce for re-
port. The matter has attracted general
interest and has brought out suggestions
and comments from business houses and
individuals throughout the country. So
far during this administration about 49,
600 hand stamps have been sent out to
postma sters. The committee appointed
by the postmaster general to examine
new designs or improvements in cancel
ling stamps will receive for inspection up
to January 1st working models of any in
vention designed to take the place of the
hand stamps now in use at the various
postoffces. This call for new designs or
improvements applies only to hand stamps
and not to cancellation machines, which
are used in the heavy work of the serv>
ice. The present movement is intended
primarily to improve the class of post
marking stamps now supplied to the
smaller postoffices, as well as those used
in an auxiliary way in the larger ones
and the principal points considered will
be simplicity, durability and cost.

wAsHBURN SO, MANHATTAN o.
Coach Coldrer Gets Into the Game as
'Phil Brown"-Shady Transaction.


Washburn won the foot ball game
Saturday from Manhattan Sc to in as
clean and snappy a game as was ever
seen in Topeka. 1t was clean foot ball
except for one thing. Coach COldren
of the WaShburn team played the first
half under the name of Phil Brown"
purpOrting to be d WaShburn college
student. 1t can not be said that his
playing was the cause of Washburn's
winning, as they did as well without
coach as one of the team is not show
ing the right spirit. 1t is not sports
manlike and Is abhOrred by al ltrue
lovers of inter collegiate matches. The
fact at the end of the first half, and
COldren was withdrawn and Brown
took his place. 1t is to be hoped that
WashbUrn will not stOOp to such tao
ties again.
The game was one sided, but interest
never Jagged. FarrOr, for Washburn,
was the surprise of the day and show
ed wonderful Improvement since the
game with Ottawa He scored the
first touchdown within a minute of the
time that play had been called. After
the kick off the teams lined up nearly
in the center of the field. There was
scrimmage and FarrOr was seen to
dart out of the crush and sprint across
the field for a touchdown. On a crisS
cross from Stahl on Washburn' s 80
yard line he Sprinted across the field
for the fourth touchdown On a feint
punt he made a run of 80 yards and at
another time he was sent around the
end for 90 yards. He was the star of
the day for Washburn. The final score
was 80 to 0 in favor of WaShburn.
The Manhattan team played a good
game Notwithstanding their crippled
condition. Four of their regular play
ers were out of the game, while Wash
burn had a much stronger line than
when they played Manhattan before.
Smedley, right end for Manhattan,
pIoyed the best game of any one of the
% men that were lined up. He broke
through Washburn's line repeatedly.
The game was not necessarily pro-
Ionged but it was quite dark when
time was called on the second half. The
following was the line up:
