to
SMITHS CELEBRATED CURE
FOR RHEUMATISM.
1t is medicine whose reputation is
founded entirely upon it's own merits.
1t fills the long-felt want of the peo-
pie for cure of that dreaded disease,
RHEUMATISM.
This medicine acts directly upon the
blood, removing the cause of rheuma-
tism in the quickest time possible, and
builds up the entire system.

number hundreds. Those persons
who are more or less interested in
the strenuous game run into the
thousands. They are all interested
in this special from Iowa City, show
ing the net result of the sport to the
Iowa State university team:
THE current athletic year ut the
University of Iowa will close with
the athletic management in debt.
The amount of Indebtedness is not
large and is covered many times by
the value of the athletic property.
The football season closed with Il
profit, but not with such n large mar
gin as had been calculated upon.
1.-THE debt of the athletic board of
control is largely represented by the
improvements made on Iowa field
this year in making the new football
field, erecting the new grandstand
and laying the track with cinders.
The baseball and track teams last
season ran each of them about $500
to the bad, and the total amount of
these expenditures was more than
the football profits could wipe out,
though the football season was the
most profitable in the history of the
university.
almost every conference manage
ment winds up the current year
slightly in debt on the whole calen-
dar years athletics, so far as can be
learned, save possibly the University
of Minnesota. Michigan, with phe
nomenal football team, winds up the
year in about the same shape as
Iowa.
1.-The Iowa board of control is not
at all alarmed about the indebted
ness, but il has announced officially
through General Manager McCutchen
that the track and baseball teams
must pay a profit next year instead
of a deficit and that profit must be
made by subscriptions TO their sup
port by the students or by largely
increased membership in the athletic
union. This body has been admit
tedly n farce for some time and has
this year but two paid members. An

More singular even than any OF
these odd requests was the obli9a-

the wish that his heart should he

there. adding that unless this WAS
done his relatives would never rest
happy in possession of his estate. SO
strong was this appeal that the or

The Michigan-Iowa game was the
only one on Iowa's schedule this
year that exceeded expectations. The
others fell behind. The figures on
the Michigan game receipts have not
been announced, but the receipt of
the check for Iowa's share made sew
eral staid professors on the board of
control dance with joy when they
saw the figures.
THE attendance at the Minnesota
game at Minneapolis was n big dis
appointment. The paid attendance
was only 400, due partly to the
death of Ex-Governor Pillsbury. a
week before the game, and partly to
the melancholy reports sent to Min
neapolis by correspondents early in
the season. At the home games the
attendance from the university and
Iowa City has not been as large as
last year The bitter fight made on
the management of the Athletic
union and the university by. local
paper did something to keep down
attendance from Iowa City, and
many Of the students became i'm
'bued with the idea that only big
games were worth attending"

SEARCH IS COMMENCED
FOR MISSING MOLINE MAN

Archie Kelso, the well-known South
Moline resident, has disappeared
somewhere i'm Honduras. Central
America, and his friends are eXerting
every effort tn locate him. He has
not written to his wife since Aug.
IL, and il is feared he has fallen into
the hands of ruffians in the wildS of
that country.
Arthur Weidlein. Mr.. KelSo'S
nephew and companion on the trip
to Honduras, returned last week
from Central America, and brought
the word that he last saw his uncle
as he was leaving with a party of
prospectors to penetrate the iungles
IN the search for gold.
Mrs. Kelso has instituted an inves-
tigation of her suspicion that her
husband is in some way Il victim
of mine-owner named Albers, who
spreads dazzling accounts of the
wealth of the country and the ease
with which il can he secured.
Mr.. Kelso and Weidlein left Mo-
line last spring for Honduras with a
company of fortune seekers. He he
came interested in Honduras
through an article in Il newspaper
which set forth the possibilities of
the country. The article was writ
ten by Henry Albers. of Des Moines.
brother of the Honduras Albers. Mr..
Eelso iourneyed TO Des Moines TO see
Henry AlberS. writer of the article
which had attracted him, to discuss
making the trip with him. \ dicSer
was made with him, and the COM
e Et-sa 80 nr.f a1 10 irna
later for Honduras, Mrs. Kelso pro-
testing against her husbands desire
TO be one OF the party, but to no
avail.
The Des Moines man then told
Kelso that business would compel
him to travel to Honduras by way of
New York, but promised to meet the
fortune seekers at New Orleans.
Nothing was seen of him later, and
for this reason the anxious people
here are prone to in some measure
hold the Des Moines man responsible
for the disappearance of Kelso.
Mr. Kelso is reported to have been
suffering with the southern fever, and
young Weidlein since his return has
been taken i'll at a friends house in
this city, with disease which the
attending doctor has not yet dag
nosed, but which is now suspected of
being the southern malady. Weidlein
saws Albers in Honduras is viewed by
him with suspicion. He says too
there is plenty of gold in Honduras.
but the ''sharpers" take care of it.
His last knowledge of Kelso's where
abouts is that he was in jungle that
has as yet never been penetrated,
and at a point some thirty-two miles
from the nearest village, with only
one or two men as companions.
Weidlein was more than five weeks
on his way home, so that there has
been time for much to occur since
he started. An application has al
ready been made to the consul at
Honduras to investigate and locate
the missing Moliner.
