ON THE
GRIDIRoN
Morris Defeats Madison II to o.
Schedule of the uame For
the Season.

The game at Appleton last SatIr-
day between the Morris and the
Madison high school teams was a
hard fought battle. The Madison
team was the heavier of the two, and
was also an old and experienced team
which had never suffered defeat.
They we're confident of victory. but
they did not know the young giant
of football team which had been
organized in Morris this year.
The game was exciting from start
to finish. There we're no bad tlukes,
and the teams were evenly matched
in skill. The large crowd in attend
ance was kept at high pitch of ex-
element.
At the end of the first half the
score stood 6 to 6. At the end of the
game it was IL to + in favor of Morris.
Each member of she Morris team
distinguished himself. Capt. Stone
displayed good generalship through
out the game.
Brown distinguished himself with
his long punts, DeKay and McKen-
sic with their line plunging and
Spooner and Nilsson with their long
runs. The work of the men in the
front line, though not as conspicuous
as those back of the line, was equally
worthy of commendation. Ortman,
Olson, Geiser, Kerl and Buckentiu
stopped the rushes through the
Morris line and also protected the
back line we'll in offensive playing.
The Madison team were a gentle
manly aggregation, who took their
defeat in good spirit. They have
since written here to obtain another
game, but as the schedule is made
up, it is not probable that there will
be another game this season.
The team went to Ortonville yester-
day to play the team at that place
today. The Ortonville team is much
stonger than when it played here
three weeks ago, but as the same is
true of the Morris team, there need
be no fear that the Morris team will
allow itself to be beaten.
A week from today, Morris will
play Glenwood here. 1t is under
stood that the Glenwood team is not
a high school team, but mixed
team. The Morris team will, never
theless play all school boys.
On the next Saturday, November 9,
Morris will play Litchfeld at Benson.
This Litchfield team has been the
strongest eleven in this part of the
state.

WILLING 60 obli0e.

An Englishman at dinner once
told tale of a tiger he had shot
which measured twenty-four feet
from snout. to tailtop. Every one
was astonished, but no one ventured
to insinuate a doubt of the truth Of
the story.
Presently a Scotchman told his
tale. He had once caught a fish
which, he said, he was unable to
pull in alone, managing only to land
it at last with the aid Of six friends.
"It was a skate and it covered two
acres"
Silence followed this recital, dur
ing which the offended Englishman
left the table. The host followed.
After returning he said to the
Scotchman: \. Sir, you have insult
ed my friend. You must apollo
gize."

Scot.
Yes, you did, with your two acre

concession, sStell him if he will take

In proof of inherited talent it is
said that the mother of Schumann
was endowed with great musical
ability, and that Chopin received
his gift and also his delicate con-
stitution from the maternal side.
Gounod's mother was exceedingly
fond of both music and painting,
while the mother Of Spohr was an
excellent judge Of music and fine
critic without being herself mu-f
sician.
Milton's letters show tender love
and gratitude to his mother, and Ra-
leigh credits to his the politeness of
departments which ever distinguish.

be the happiest man on earth if he

how, No pauper of an ensign is
going to marry my daughter. You'd
better wait until you are promoted
and are able to support yourself be-
fore you think of marrying"
The young. officer astounded the
admiral by not retiring precipitate-
ly. He even ventured the reminder
that the admiral himself had mar
ried when he was but an ensign, and
that his married life had been
happy one.
"Red Bill" Kirkland slared at the
presumptnous speaker for a mo-

Difference in Hair.

The difference between straight
and curly hair is very apparent on
q microscopical examination. A
hair is hollow tube, and straight
hair is as sound as reed, while a
curly hair is always flattened on
both sides and curls toward one of
the fat sides and never toward the
edge. 1t is curious and little
known fact that the hair of women
is coarser than that of men, as we'll
as thicker on the scalp. In an av-
erage head of hair there are about
130, 900 individual hairs. The hair
seems to have a life of its own in
dependent of that of the man, for
numerous instances are known Of
the hair continuing to grow after
death.

brick is made, and a ready
market is found in the cop

The company has about TOO, 200

Semi-Annual AppOrtionment OF
Primary School Money.
Aud. Gen. Powers has determined
that the amount OF primary school
interest money to be included in the

the counties of the state, Nov. 10, is
81, 739, ,463.72.
The total number of children OF
school age in the state is 720,612.
The rate therefore, will be $2.41 per
capita. This is much the largest
amount ever distributed, the next
highest rate per capita having been
$1.65. The great increase is due to
the increased amounts paid into the
state treasury.
There being total of 475 children

accordingly receive boost of

for Which Tax is Spread.

844.97, and is greater by $4,000
than that of 1899, which was the
next highest tax ever spread in the

900 this year than it would have
been had the state board of equali-
zation not increased the equalized
value of the state, the addition to
the university tax alone amounting
to this sum.
