WHITE CAUSED TROUBLE.
Playing of Ex-Washburn Guard a
Kirksville Creates a Stir.

Lawrence, Kan, Oct. 16.-The playing
of White, the big ex-Washburn guard.
in the kirksville game last Saturday,
threatens to cause no small amount of
trouble. White is Ineligible to play in
intercollegiate games, and the Saturday
game was supposed to have been played
under the rules of the Chicago confer
ence. As soon as the athletic board
heard that White had played in the
game they called upon Manager George
o. Foster Coach Outland and Captain
Jenkinson to appear before them and
plain why the rules had been violated.
Coach Outland at once rendered his
resignation, but the board was not ex-
is reported that Outland was then re-
lieved from much of the blame and the
responsibility largely shifted upon the
shoulders of Manager Foster and Cap
tain Jenl1insOn. 1t is understood that Dr.
Outland Will resign if the board asks for
the designations of either Foster or Jen-
kinson, although he has made no state
ment to that effect. The board will take
final action in the matter today and the
result is being awaited with great inter-
the K u. team, which has opened the
season in such good form.
Coach Outland, Of the Kansas uni
versity team, has received a large box
wife of the president of B1ees Military
academy. Mrs. Blees said in the letter,
which Coach Outland did not object to
showing, that she went to the game ex-
pecting to root for the bone doctors. but
that she was so disguised with the tao
tics used by the Kirksville team that she
soon changed and boosted for the Kan
sans. She expressed her hopes that
Kansas university would be successful
the remainder of the season. and highly
complimented the players, coach and
management for their .'gentlemanly
conduct under great provocation."

M s. q. ELEVEN CRIPPLED.
Williams, the Big Guard, Declared In
eligible to Play.

Columbia, Mo-, Oct. 16.-Dr. Hether-
ington. the director of athletics at Mis-
souri, university, has just declared that
Williams, the big guard of last years
team, is ineligible to play again this
year.
This certainly seems unfair to the
man and the students in general VIII
liams was a bona fide member of last
years Junior law class and entered the
senior class this year in September
He was granted a leave of absence by
the law faculty but this seems to have
no weight with the director. If it were
some other man besides Williams this
discrimination would certainly not ap-
pear. The director, who also arranges
the games and has a sort of general
supervision, has written to the athletic
authorities at Kansas and Nebraska
universities for their opinion on the
matter.

IF'rom the Atchison Globe.1
In the woods a mile and a half from
Dentonville and four and a half miles
north of Huron, millions of crows roost
at night. They begin coming in just
before twilight, and keep coming until
9 o'clock. 1t has been ascertained that
some of the crows feed as far away as
Marysville, Seneca, and the Kaw river
Four or five years ago, an attempt was
made to drive the crows away. but it
did not succeed. They seem to hatch
in different parts of the country, and
come to this piece of woods to rOost.
Some times so many crows roost in one
tree that the limbs are broken. The
roosting crows are scattered over woods
more than mile square.
Two or three years ago, several thu
sand crows visited a grove four miles
from their present roOst, and seemed to
be discussing a change, but. the change
was never made.

Lindsborg SO; Salina o.

Mcpherson, Kas-, Oct. 16-The Sa-
lima college football team played a
badly losing game against the Bethany
college team at Lindsborg Monday af-
ternoon. From the first Kickoff it was
apparent that the Bethany boys were
the masters of the gridiron and the
first touchdown and goal were secured
in a trif1e less than ten minutes. In
the second play Sa1ina put up a better
game and was more successful in tack
ling, but the massive Petersons were
irresistible and repeatedly scored with
exasperating regularity, and when time
was finally called the score stood So
to in Lindsborg'S favor.

saUABBLE OVER REFEREE.
Jeffries Suspicious of Corbett and Pre-
fers Harry Stewart.

San Francisco, Oct. 16-Bil1y De-
laney and Billy Madden will meet today
and formally appoint a referee for the
Jeffries-Ruhlin fight. Just at present
the indication is that Harry Corbett will
be the referee. but there is a possibility
that JeffrieS will not gree to him. Mad
has aroused the champions suspicious.
He rather favors Harry Stewart, who
has been refereeing all the fights at
Los Angeles. Stuart may be urged as a
compromise candidate.
Tom Sharkey has sent word to Tim
McGrath, his old trainer, that he will
be at the ringside to challenge the win
ner, and will bring a bunch of money to
make side bet. There has been no
betting on the big fight, but Jeffries
is almost certain to be 2-to-1 favorite.

First Presbyterian Church of Greensboro, Ga, and It's Pastor and Elder.

The day was when men of promi-
nence hesitated to give their testimoni-
ais to proprietary medicines for publ
cation. This remains true today of
most proprietary medicines. But Pc
runa has become SO justly famous, it's
merits are known to so many people of
high and low stations, that no one
hesitates to see his name in print
recommending Peruna.
The highest men in our nation have
given Peruna a strong endorsement.
Men representing all classes and sta
tons are equally represented.
A dignifed representative of the
Presbyterian church in the person of
Rev. E. G.. Smith does not hesitate to
state publicly that he has used Peruna
in his family and found it cured when
other remedies failed. In this state
ment the Rev. Smith is supported by
an elder in his church.
Rev. E. G. Smith, pastor of the Pres
byterian church of Greensboro, Ga,
writes:
Having used Peruna in my family
for some time it gives me pleasure to
testify to it's true worth. My little boy
seven years of 6 had been suffering
for some time with catarrh Of the lower
bowels. Other remedies had failed. but
