PRESIDENT ENDS CANE RUSHES.
MUST BE GIVEN Up AT THE MASSACHUSETTS,
INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

Boston, Nov. 19.-President Prtchett of the Mas
sachusetts Institute OF Technology tonight gave
out a statement in regard to the attitude of the
institute toward cane rushes. growing out OF the
fatality of last Thursday. He says:
There are two objections to the cane rush, either
one of which is sufficient to Danish II from college
sports. First, it is not game OF skill and cannot
be played under definite rules.
The second objection is all too evident IN view
OF the sad of last Thursday. Previous to this
there have been, far / learn. no serious
accidents In these rushes When the custom began
the classes were smaller and the danger OF injury
inappreciable. The danger increases with the in
crease OF numbers and Of the momentum OF the
two opposing forces. For this reason If for no
other. the tnIe has come when the cane rush must
he given up.

DIDN'T WANT TO BE "TOTED"
PrODositiOn VIII ch Made Dennis
Flynn OF o. lahOma FlY.

Mr. Tom Ferguson. chairman of tire
territorial Republican central committee
of Oklahoma, and D. T. Flynn, delegate
to congress, were in Wichita over night
Sunday and left yesterday morning for
Englewood and thence into Beaver coun-
ty, where Mr.. Flynn and Mr.. Ferguson
have two meetings. Mr.. Ferguson in the
course of an interview said: The mo-
ment a man from Oklahoma tells an
outsider that Flynn is making fight in
Oklahoma the outsider is utterly asround-
ed and wants to know why any fight is
necessary. But we are making a fight
and intend to keep it up. We know that
Mr. Flynn is going to be elected, but
that is not our only goal this year. We
want a big majority, and great big ma
jority. We want to show the nation that
Oklahoma is appreciative of good things
bestowed. And we will. The way the
people turn out to the meetings given by
Flynn is astonishing. At our place, my
home, Watonga, Saturday we had 1000
people al the afternoon meeting. The
whole county came in to see and hear
him. have never seen an audience so
still as the one we had at Watonga while
Mr. Flynn was telling about free homes.
Although it was out of doors, you could
have heard a whisper
Mr. Ferguson laughed and told this
story:
After the meeting an old colored lady
came up to Mr. Flynn in the hotel, ard,
extending her hand, said, in the midst
of a big group of white people:
Lord bless you, Mr.. Flynn, you saved
my home
Mr.. Flynn thanked her. but she turn
ed around and said to the crowd:
And you white folks-he saved your
homes, too. Why don't you tote him
The group, under this stimulus, made
a movement towards Flynn to tote him,
and you never saw the Oklahoma dele
gate make faster tracks before. He fed
like the dowager empress of China He
didn't want to be toted.''

ed, His Pal Escaping.

George Emmerson, who served short
term in the county jail for shooting at
Officer Sam Jones in this city some weeks
ago. was shot and wounded at Belle
PLANE on Sunday morning Emmerson
and a companion were caught In the act
of robbing Fultz Bros store. and when
surrounded by citizens. took refuge in the
upper part of the store. After time the
two men came out on a little porch in
front of the store. They were observed
by man in the street below, who i'm
mediately opened fire on them with a
shotgun. The load from the gun took
effect in the limbs of Emmerson, and as
a result he was captured by the officers
and is now confined in the jail al Well
ington.
Emmersons accomplice. during the ex-
element resulting in the shooting of En-
merson, hid in the upper part OF the
building and afterwards escaped, and at
the present time the officers have not
found him.
On Sunday night the men drove to
they were found. for the work It seems
that there is a burglar alarm in the store.
and owing to this the robbery became
known.
After the capture OF Emmerson an in
vestigation was made of the interior Of
the store A number OF articles were
sacked up ready TO be taken away. In
a little while the robbers would have es-
capped with their booty.
A number OF letters were found on the
person of Emmerson and from the con-
tents of several Of them it appears that
he is the member OF an organized gang
The officers here have not yet seen the
letters. all of the conversation concerning
them being over the phone.
The fact Of the letters being found in

the theory that Chief Cubbon has been
advancing for some time. In a close
watch OF the recent thefts reported and
the seeming inability Of the officers 70 Sc
cure the property, this idea was strongly
supported.
Emmerson has been going under a diff
ferent name since he left the city and
has been known as Anderson. IL has also
been learned that there g some author
