Lawrence, Kan. Oct. 2O.-Snow. rain

practice altogether, and yesterday the
afternoons work was put in on the
campus west of Snow hall

snap and ginger than heretofore and
especially was this true of the backs
whose slowness has been one of the
most discourag ing features of the teams

dash of the backs in getting into the
plays may be attributed in large meas
ure to the presence of Hess behind the
line, who was found at his old position
of right half for the first time since his
injury.

The Third regiment Missouri volun-

the soldiers. A Kansas City paper
says of the effect the transfer Of troops
will have on the Topeka firm:
Probably Green and Wolff, the Tope-
ka merchants who have the contract for
keeping the soldiers of the two regi-
ments well fed, are subjected to great
er trouble in the removal to the city
than any others. At Paramount park
they erected large kitchens, both of
which will now be torn down. The
building from which the men of the
Fifth will be served with edibles, now
that they are in town, was built on the
vacant lot adjoining the den on the east
yesterday and last night. It is equip
ped with three large ovens. The con-
tractors will be put to the additional
expense of moving the Thirds kitchens
to the city.

MAKES MEAT HIGH.
Germans Aroused by High Duties on
Live Stock.


Washington, Oct. 20-A powerful ag-
itatiOn has commenced in Germany
against the high duties and numerous
restrictions by which the government
live animals and greatly increased the
price of meat products. This is the
substance of a report made to the state
department by Dean B. Mason, vice
and deputy consul general at Frankfort.
He says that the price of meat has been
increased so that there is a decided de-
crease in the consumption. the Berlin
slaughter houses receiving SO, 491 fewer
animals last year than in the preceding
year, while there probably has been a
still greater decrease since the figures
were gathered.
One result of this high price has been
a marked increase in the amount of
cured meat imported. This, Mr.. Mason
says. is peculiarly advantageous to the
United States which can export meat
products to Germany far more readily
than live stock.
