No sooner are the all-westerns

the possibilities of changes in the

If the rules committee had the

the arbitrary one: mo boy, youth or

and builders and owners agreed on
! the construction of practically ocean
! going carriers for use on the tenn
/ pestuous inland seas. Mr.. Walsh re-
/ ports that 80 per cent. of the vessels
! being built in the Lake Superior ship
yards in the spring of 1895 were prac-
| tically ocean going craft; and adds
that insurance men and ship owners
are constantly figuring on the con-
struction of vessels and steamers
that will be even more seaworthy
than those recently built.
Mr., Walsh calls to mind the mot
ley process sion that has passed over
/ these lakes. The Indian padding ma
/ fragile canoe along shore; the sloop
and schooner of later years; then the
large wooden brigs; to-day the steel
! freighters and tue passenger steam
ers, great floating hotels. But to-day,
as in the day of the Indian and tho
canoe, the skipper must be a man Of
courage and experience, must bear
on his shoulders heavy ponSibil-
/ ity.
! If all the mysteries of the lakes
could be disclosed what tale they
might tell! Vessels have left lake
ports and no vestige of them ever re-
turned, ever been discovered They
have been swallowed up utterly by
/ the waters that perhaps not long
after the tragedies showed moss
! innocent, inviting surface. Every Sc
we're storm on the lakes is attended
with great disaster to the shipping,
and the weather mans signals mean
not little to those employed in
service on these waters. In the last
decade there have been ttwer acc'-
dents in proportion to the number OK
vessels in use, but there are still too
many.
The extensive lake navigation is
practically closed in wirter, but con-
siderable late fall ratic is continued
often at great risk; for the sake Of
filthy lucre the risk being assumed in
the face of wel-recognized danger.
Greed also accounts for the over
loading of the freighters, more OF

ocean carriers; although the biz
cards that sweep over the northwest
raise tumut in the lake waters
that the stormy Atlantic cannot
easily outrival. Another danger en-.
countered on the lakes is the shat.

and many a good lake vessel has not
only had hole stove in her because
of unknown rocks, but also many

%copsin.
# To briefly sum up the merits of
81 these selections: johnny" Flynn.
q captain of the Gophers, is in class
by himself, the critics think. His
general help to the runner and his
ability to break through made him
brilliant member of DR.. Williams
eleven. Ahlswede of the Maroons,
fills gaps in defense as if he were the
human cork" and no guard has out
played this valuable veteran OF
Stages squad this season. Lerum,
of Wisconsin, possesses in Il remark
able degree all of the distinctively
valuable attributes of Ahlswede, and
it is hard to choose between these
two good men.
No follower of football who has
seen Farr, the Cleveland man, play
tackle this season with the Maroons
would hesitate for moment about
giving him one tackle position. He
is the best defensive tackle the west
has seen in years. He was quick in
getting down the field on punts, and
his record is almost as many men
as the ends. His defensive work in
the attack against his side of the
line has been little less than mar
vclous. Maddox, of Michigan, gets
the other tackle. as ne has gained
distinction carrying the ball, as well
as in powerful defense work He is
one of the best third down men
Michigan ever had.
Abbott. of Wisconsin, made nine
tenths of the tackles on kicks for his
team, broke up interference that
looked impregnable for one man. and
rarely had gain around his end.
Everybody mas selected this square
iawed Massachusetts boy for an end
position. Jimmy Cook, of Illinois,
really deserves an end position on
an All-American team. He is the
fastest end this year, is always down
the field like lightning, is sure and
hard tackler, has never been really
outplayed, and has considerable abil-
ity as a drop-kicker.
Coach 1oSt. OF Michigan, who
thinks the Wolverine ends very
strong this year, says unqualifedly
of Cook that he is the best end rush
.. e has seen in the west.

STILL AFTER DRAPER
Philadelphia North American
VIII Exhaust Every Legal Proc
ess in the Prosecution.

st. Louis, Dec. 15.-In the court OF
criminal correction today Judge Moore
declined to hold as a fugitive from
justice William r. Draper, the news
paper correspondent for whose arrest
warrant was issued Saturday at
Wichita, Kan, by the county judge on
charge of criminal libel preferred by
the Philadelphia North American. The
judge declined to hear any of the evil
dence which Judge James Gay Gordon,
the attorney for the North American
was ready to present. declaring that
he would not hold Draper as a fugi-
tive from justice, as the warrant
charging libel was issued subsequent
to the bringing of the proceedings in
St. Louis.
S. B. Amidon, law partner of County
Attorney 1. F. Conley of Wichita. who
refused to issue a warrant Saturday,
appeared for Draper
In the court at the time were White
Buffalo, the Indian who was the prin-
cipal character of an alleged libelous
story written by Draper and printed
in the Philadelphia North American;
E. A Van Valkenburgh and Emery
Foster, editor and Sunday editor re-
spectively of that paper, and Lieuten-
ant Colonel r. H. Pratt. superintendent
of the Carlisle Indian school.
Judge Gordon, speaking in reference
to the court proceedings said: THE
action of the jury today merely delays
and obstructs our efforts. 1t will be
as temporary in effect, however, as the
action of the county attorney at Wich-
ita ir refusing to give us a warrant.
We got the warrant afterWard directly
from the judge. and we will through
other process and other tribunals yet
take Draper back for trial. The prose-
cution will not stop until every lawful
agency is employed
