DENVER MUST BE SCARED.
Get Two Old Washburn Players but
Are Afraid of Them

The Denverftes are having all kinds Of
spasms about the game to be played be-
tween the Washburn football team and
the Denver Athletic club team Novem-
Der 2 at Denver
Now comes the story about Hughes
and Cell going to Denver as spies for
Washburn. Hughes had the feeling that
his services were not appreciated at
WaShburn and so he failed to return
this year but went up to Nebraska with
the coaching bee in his bonnet From
all appearances he did not make a sue
cess of coaching as the following story
from the Denver News indicates:
Has Washburn college made another
strange move for the purpose of cinch-
ing the game with d. A. c. next month :?
First it was announced from excellent
authority that Washburn had sent thou
sands of dollars to Denver to lay on the
result of the game Now it appears that
they are sending players right into the
camp of the d. A. c.. to learn all that is
possible about the D. A. c. play. On
Tuesday night James Hughes, who or
ganized the Washburn college football
team few years ago, and Frank Sell,
a former star on the Washburn team
not more than two years ago, waited
upon the d. A. G. men and offered their
services as football players. They stated
that they had been out in the mountains
and desired to reside in Denver if they
could secure some work.
ROlla Parvin informed them that they
were free to come out if they so wished
and accordingly they appeared in Cava-
naugh's squad at D. A. C. park yester-
day afternoon. When the crowd at the
park learned that they were Washburn
men there was a unanimous suspicion
that they were emiSsaries dispatched by
Washburn to learn all that could be
found out about the strength of the d.
A. c. and if possible their entire signal
code.
Both men were tried by Cavanaugh
Hughes, who was one of the star guards
of Washburn, was played at right half
and went to the work like a man who
knew the game thoroughly. Sell was
placed at end for while and showed
good speed and knowledge of the posi-
ton. Sell represented Washburn in the
interstate oratorical contest a few
years ago.
At the close of the practice Captain
Rothwen was asked if there was any
ground for the suspicion against the
men. He said:
Il think they are on the square. Of
course we naturally expected at first
that there was something underhanded
when they told US they were Washburn
men, but now 1 feel quite sure they are
all right. 1 think that no college would
sanction. such unsportsmanlike action
as is suspected by a number of the D. A.
c. enthusiasts

AUTOMOBILE ON FIRE.
B. w. Landlords Exciting Experience
in Lawrence.

B. w. Landlord, of Topeka, his wife
and two children, came to Lawrence on
an automobile today, arriving here
about noon. saws the Lawrence Journal
of Thursday AS they were going south
on Massac husetts street, the machine
caught fire and it was with difficulty
that the party was unloaded and the
fire extinguished. AS it was, all alight-
ed without injury, and the fire was put
out with no apparent serious damage TO
the automobile.
The fire caught from the gasoline
used as motive power. The flame by
which the gas that runs the machine
was generated was extinguished by
some means and the gasoline continu
ing to flow, soon accumulated in guam
titles sufficient to cause ignition, and
the automobile was all in a blaze in an
instant, the blaze reaching a height of
ten feet or more
Mr. Landlord rescued his family, and
then got the fire out, and seeing the lit
tie damage done, proceeded at once to
get his machine in shape to start again.

INTEREST OF THE czoLGosz FAMILY
FATHER SAID HE WOULD HAVE GONE To AU-

WANTED To SEE HIM

Cleveland. Ohio oct. 29-Next to the witnesses in
the death chamber at Auburn Prison, where Leon
czolgosz passed out OF existence. there were no
more interested witnesses TO the far away vndica-
ton of justice than a little group of men who had
gathered in the local office Of The Associated Press
TO learn OF the final act early to-day. This group
included the Of kin TO the assassin his father
and two brothers, and half dozen OF his former
neighbors in this city.
The same seeming indifference that has character
lied the members OF the Czogosz family was MAIN
tained to the enc. and when the statement that
Leon Czoigosz had been put death was told to
the old IN Polish his fingers twtched nervously
