KANSAS WON THE DAY.
Defeated the Missouri Tigers at Kan
sas City by a Score of IL to O.

Kansas City, Nov. 25.-The Missouri
Tigers went down to defeat yesterday
before the superior Drawn and muscle Of
the Jayhawkers from the University OF
Kansas. The score when the two
halves Of IS minutes each had been
played was u to 0. It was a valiant
battle, one that will linger long in the
memory of the 1000 people who braved
the terrible weather to see it.
It was a terrible day for football The
gridirOn was frozen as stiff as a board
and over this surface there was a coat
ing of snow which made any attempt at
intricate plays out of the question A
cold wind was blowing from the east,
a wind which carried with it not only
the freezing temperature Of the North
land, but also picked up in its wake
thousands Of the infinitesimal particles
Of snow, driving them with irresistible
force into the faces Of the spectators
and players alike. The field was a SHIN
mering mass OF snow and ice, and il was
next 10 an imp0ssibility for the players
probably the worst day that the fol-
lowers OF the pigskin have ever had to
show their prowess upon the great day
of the year.
Possibly the most notable play of the
day was made in the latter part OF the
first half. After holding the kansans
for two downs. MOsse was forced to
kick, q low, driving punt which McAlIis-
ter got on Nissouris ten yard line,
where he was downed The Tigers be-
gan to do valiant work here, buc1ng the
Kansas line for gains time after time,
principally through the holes which
Hunter tore through right guard and
center.
They advanced the ball steadily. the
JayhawSers' line seeming to go TO piec-
es, for 20 yards to the Kansans' 80 yard
line, and here Captain AIosse brought
a penalty upon his team by off-side
play. Ten yards were given the Tigers,
and they continued their good work,
carrying the pigskin to the 10 yard line,
when the Kansans braced up and took
the ball on downs. Here II was that
the Missouri team should have tried for
a goal from the field Mosse kicked
the ball out of danger. and the half
ended with the ball on the Kansans' 45
yard line.
The first score of the game was made
after ten minutes play Kansas kicked
the bail off to AIissOuri's 5 yard line,
Tiger bringing It back ten yards before
he was doWned. The Kansas line held
firm and they secured the ball on downs.
steadily forcing il forward and finally
carrying it across the line. MOsse

20 suferers From Pi1ea.

DR.. Redmond, a specialist in the study

Pile Cure, the new discovery for the cure
Of piles, was the most remarkable rem
edy he had ever seen or tried in one
respect: and that was the instant re-
lief experienced in all cases. no matter
how severe, from the moment the rem
edy was applied This was the more
surprising to him because he had care
fully analysed the preparation and no
trace Of opium. cocaine or similar poi
son could be detected.
Physicians look with great favor IN
on the Pyramid Pile Cure, because it is
rapidly taking place of surgical opera
tons and because it is so simple 50
easily applied and contains 10 mineral
or other poisons SO commonly used in
cures
Dr. Esterbrook reports that the Pyr-
amid Pile Cure not only cures the var
1ous forms of piles, but never fails to
give immediate relief on the first appli-
cation, no matter how severe the pain
or discomfort may be.
People who have suffered from piles
for years are often astOniShed St the in
