MUST LEAVE THE STREETS O. K

Street Commissioner Micklejohn has
come to the conclusion that the only
way to keep the streets from being
ruined by the plumbers, now that so
many sewer connections are being
made is to rigidly enforce the ordin-
ence against them, which compells
them to leave the street in as good
condition as found. Consequently he
mas case of two up before the recor-
der every morning and declares that
ne VIII continue to make complaints
until they begin to leave the streets
in proper condition.
He had John B. Garrett up this
morning for leaving the street in An
improper condition at 81 East street.
ana the recorder fined him $40, which
he appealed.

PALMA READ IN MADRID.

New York, Nov. PA special to the
Herald from Madrid says:
The letter of Tomas Estrada Palma,
in opposition to the proposed scheme
for Cuban autonomy has been widely
commented upon here. A member of
the cabinet said in an interview:
''Senor Palma's arguments are inval-
dated by his declaration that his party
is firmly resolved to reject any posi-
BILE form of autonomy which Spain
might offer. This remark puts him
out of court, as it is useless trying to
satisfy a man who is determined to
remain discontinued"

ELIOT OF HARVARD.
Sees no Good Grounds to Abrogate
Football

Sees no Good Grounds to Abrogate
Football.
Boston, Mass, Nov. 22.-President
Eliot, of Harvard, makes the following
statement over his signature:
THE grounds on which arguments
are based for the legal prohibition of
intercollegiate football do not seem
sufficient, in my mind to warrant fav-
or. understand that a bill has been
passed in the Georgia legislature max
ink the playing of football a crime,
simply on the ground that serious and
sometimes fatal accidents are liable to
occur in the hard fought contest. The
direct cause for the passage of the bill
was, / belive, the death of a football
player, who was injured in the game
between the Georgia university and the
University of Virginia.
But if we stop to consider other
sports we find that there are every
year,serious accidents in baseball, box
ing, fencing and other gymnasium
games. Rowing and sailing are enjoy
able pastimes, yet one reads of many
drownings every year. This does not
seem to lessen the interest in rowing or
sailing.
Everybody cannot play football 1t
is only the strong and well-built men
that can expect TO play the game with
and degree of success. Therefore I
do not favor football for everybody.
1t is, of course, valuable exercise for
those who, as I say, are able to play

FORT SCOTT WITHOUT WATER.

Fort Scott, Kan, Nov. 22.-Save for
one or two artesian wells this city is
without water. The continued efforts
of twenty men who for two days and
nights have been dynamiting the Mar
malon river bed for water to supply
the city, have failed and last night the
water company's pumphouse began
drawing wind and the city supply was
entirely shut off. The rain fail for
the past month or so has been too light
to afford any relief.
