HOW WIS, DOES IT
Some Of the Badger Plays as They
Will Be Seen in To.morrow's
Game.
A Play That Made Ground Against
Michigan Has Plenty Of
Interference. u.

Four of the Wisconsin straight" plays
are given herewith. They will doubtless
be seen in the game tomorrow. In addi-
tion to these Wisconsin, has this last week
been pulling one of the tackles back and
playing him with the halfbacks just as
Michigan does wisconsin learning the
play from Michigan, lis playing it as
though a home made article. In the game
against Northwestern last Saturday this
play netted Wisconsin steady gains, and
the Madison boys are expecting to use it
with effect against Minnesota. .
In all of the diagrams the circles rep
resent the Minnesota players, showing the
single line of defense with the halfba acks
on the line just outside Of the tackles.
The course taken by the man with the ball
is indicated by the dotted lines, and the
courses Of the various men in the inter-
ference by the plain black lines.

BOSTON BANK. FAILS
The Central National Bank Closed
by Order of the United States
Controller.
It Is a Small Affair With Deposits Of
= $2,7 100000 Which Will Be -
-. Paid in Full i;

Boston, Nov. 14.-The Central National
bank of this city did not open for~busi-
ness to-day, the controller Of the curren-
cy having ordered the bank examiner to
close it's doors and take charge of it's
business.
The closing Of the bank is said to be
due to excess loans and a lack Of quick
assets. An appeal for aid was made to
the Boston Clearing House association,
but the committee did not deem 1t ad-
visable to assist the bank.
The bank is among the smaller institu
tions of the city. 1t was organized in
posits aggregate s2,700,0 900. and 1t is de-
lieved that this amount can be paid In
full without an assessment on the stock
holders. Otis N. Luke is president and
j. Adams Brown cashier.
Just before 9 O'Clock to-day the fol-
lowing notice Was posted on the bank 8
doors:
CLOSED by order of the controller of
the currency
Inquiry at the bank elected the infor-
nation that the controller had ordered
Bank Examiner Neal to take charge as
temporary receiver. No one could be
found who had authority to discuss the
condition Of the bank. '~t,, Z. : ....s.
This turn of affairs is a surprise, as the
Central, although neither a large nor an
! old bank, had good commercial patron
age and was supposed to be financially
strong. The condition of the bank is i'm
derstood to be due partly to an inherit
ance from the old Pacific bank.
When the Pacific bank failed it was in
| volved in the collapse of the Lebanon
| Springs railroad in Vermont. The Central
| bank then lost s350,000 and an assessment
| of about 100 per cent was made upon the
| stockholders and no dividends were paid
| for thirteen years.
The failure Of the bank showed that the
| liquidation proceedings were not progress
ing favoraby. A meeting of the Central
| bank stockholders had been called, for
| Dec. 10 to approve the plan of the Elliott
| national to take over the business. Upon
| investigation, however, President Bur
| rage Of the Eliot bank and his board of
directors refused to accept the assets OF
| the Central bank as security for any
| guarantee of the. 81, zoo, 900 deposits.

The formation that Wisconsin played
for her straight end run against Michigan
this year and against Minnesota last year
is shown herewith. The leftshalf carries
the ball around right end. The important
feature of the play is that the Wisconsin
right end. indicated by the dash and the
arrow, drives into the opposing half on
the Minnesota line and tries to pen him
in, SO that the entire Wisconsin inter-
ference Of five men, the other half, the
quarter, the left tackle, the end and the
fullback goes for the end intact. I'm
less the Minnesota tackle and halfback
can break up this interference before It
strikes the end the run is likely to net
big gains for Wisconsin tomorrow.

THE EXAMPLE, OF LEE.

The Beers were criticized for continu-
ing their fight after all hope of foreign
Intervention was gone and it became
absolutely certain that their further re-
sistence to the overwhelming power of
Great Britain would be foolhardy. The
conduct of their leaders was contrasted
with that of General Robert E. Lee in
the last days of the Confederacy. Though
his once magnificent and invincible army
had been worn down to the condition of
less than 10000 muskets and very scant
supplies of all the necessaries of war; its
rank and file still trusted Lee so implic-
itly that they were opposed to surrender
and even fired at the bearers of flags of
truce from their own lines on the very
day before Lee and Grant agreed upon
terms of peace.
In discussing the situation with some
of his most trusted officers General Lee
said he was we'll aware that he could
scatter his army and carry on a desultory
war for a long time, but that no good
could come of it and he considered it his
duty to obtain the best terms of sur
render that were then possible. Though
the Boer leaders persisted long in a pol
icy which very different from that which
General Lee pursued, General De Wet,
their ablest commander, in his farewell
address to his comrades followed the ex-
ample of the great Confederate chieftain
when he urged the burghers to accept the
terms of surrender in good faith and do
their utmost to show what good colonists
they could be.
7 General Lee told the heroes who laid
down their arms at Appomattox that
their honor required them to stand by the
government to which he. as their COM
mander, had surrendered and to which
they were to acknowledge allegiance. In
his address to the students of Washing
ton university when he took the presiden-
cy of that institution, General Lee said
TO the sons of the south assembled there
that they must give their best efforts
as men to the promotion of the interests
and the defense of the honor of the Uni
ted States. He. was even greater in the
day of defeat than he had been in his
most splendid hour of victory.
General De Wet has won the admiration
of the world as much by his conduct and
counsel to his comrades since the Boer
surrender as he did by his wonderful skill
and sublime courage in the war.

MORE PHILIPPINE TROUBLE.

1t would seem that we had quite enough
worry over the Philippines on other &C
counts, but the question Of the character
OF the currency that we are TO let those
islands have is causing much discussion
and has put the house and senate at outs.
The senate Philippine bill, contrary to
the recommendation OF the Philippine
commission, provides for the coinage in
Manila Of coins of the same weight and
fneness as the Mexican dollar, which Is
in general circulation in the Philippines
and along the Chinese coast. The COM
missions plan was for the coinage of a
silver peso to be kept by our governments
guaranty at the value Of 80 cents in good
American gold standard money. This
would have given the Filipinos silver
money, which they desire, because they
are used 10 IL, but at the same time would
have kept their currency stable. The
senate, however. objected to our govern
ment's guaranteeing $4,000 900 or $50, 900 900
worth Of Philippine token money and ar
gued that as unsupported silver coins are
the currency OF China and the Straits
Settlements. and as the British coin at
Bombay dollar Of the same value as
the Mexican dollar, It would be best for US
to adopt a similar coinage for the Phil
ippines. It seems likely that the house
viii refuse TO take this view OF the ques-
tion.
Its committee on coinage, weights and
measures has amended the senate Philip
pine bin so as 70 give the Philippines a
currency enough like Mexican money to
please the tastes and prejudices of the
people Of those islands and their neigh
bOrs. but with fits stability OF value so
well guaranteed that the present rate of
exchange win be greatly reduced.
The fluctuations of silver affect trade
with the orient very seriously and the
house committee insists upon a gold
standard and therefore a steady currency
for our insular possessions, as well as for
our people at home. There will prob
ably be a stubborn conflict between
the two houses on this question, but the
business sentiment Of our people is strong
" in favor Of the contention made by
the house committee.

THE sHATTuc BILL.

Congress could hardly find a more i'm
portant matter to consider than that pre-
sented in what is known as the shattuc
bill, which the house of representatives
has passed and which it is hoped to put
through the senate before adjournment.
This measure goes a great deal further
than our present laws in the direction Of
restricted immigration.
To the classes already excluded the
Shattuc bill adds illiterates over IS years
of age who cannot read the constitution of
the United States in English or some 9TH
er language of their selection.
A large proportion of the immigration
that is now coming into this country is
composed Of persons whose illiteracy indi-
Gates that they are capable Of only the
lowest grades of labor. There are strong
reasons for believing that we have already
quite as large an element of this kind,
both native and imported, as we can well
carry. And it continues to pour in at a
rate which causes no little alarm.
The month of May which has recently
passed brought more immigrants to our
shores than any previous May ever
brought. 1t is found that illiteracy is
found chiefly among Poles, Huns, Italians
and the other classes which already con-
stitute the bulk of our immigration and
are becoming every year larger proper
ton Of the whole.
SO long as the bulk of the immigrants to
this country come from England. Ireland
Scotland, Germany, Holland and Scandina-
via the country was undoubtedly benefited
greatly by such accretions to fits popula-
ton.
But the case is very different now. The
desirable elements OF immigration have
fallen of as notably as the Objectionable
and dangerous elements have increased
It is time to protect the country better
against this danger.
What makes it the more alarming is the
fact that immigration has ceased to scat
ter as it once did in the thinly populated
regions Of the west to engage in agricul-
tural pursuits. but is locating mainly in
the already crowded centers Of the eastern
and middle states.
A brief retrospect will show how rapid
this change of drift has been. From 1880
to 1880 fully half of our immigrants went
to the western and northern central states
none Of which are yet crowded, and in
the ten years ended in 1900 more than so
per cent Of them stopped in the northern
Atlantic states. The south has never re-
ceived anything more than an insignifi-
cant proportion Of immigrants. and the
average character Of those who have come
to the United States in recent years causes
the south to rejoice that the tide has
never set this way.
The south has received only. a mere
hu ne he - 4,
grants who have landed on our shores
since the first of last January and will
probably get no larger percentage of the
quarter of a million which may be ex-
pected. during the remainder Of the year.
But the interests and welfare Of the ma
ton are at stake and we hope TO see the
senators from the south give the Shattuc
bill their united and hearty support.

- ROFFSSOR Frederick Starr, the
noted and eccentric anthropolo-
gia OF the university of Chicago,
IL thinks that in the not distant fu-
ture China, Russia and Germany
will be the nations dominating the world.
THAT was a very ridiculous statement
made by a friend of DIR. Carus," Profess
sor Starr said, that one thousand years
hence the Chinese. Jews and Saxons would
rule the world. DR.. Carus quoted II from
a fTienu IN our Folklore Association meet

scientific investigation or thought, but
on a basis or prejudice-Anglo-Sax pref
udice.

one can talk about what viii be the con-
ditions one thousand years from now.
Why. one thousand years ago there was
no British empire. The United States Is
only two hundred years old. But II you
want me to make some prediction about
the more immediate future possibly l can
accommodate you.
Then it is absurd to put Jews in the
same category with Chinese and Anglo
Saxons They are wordstof different cate
CORY. The Jews are not race. They are
a people who have one religion, Judaism
Most Of the Jews, you know. are Ger
mans, Russians or Poles. They are not
Hebrews. There are Irishmen who are
Jews Why, right here in Chicago know
Irishmen who are Jews.
I'm the future, and not far distant fu-
ture, Russia and China are nations which
will occupy the leading portions in the
world; and If you want third, Germany.
They are on the threshold now. do
not mean that the world is going TO be
Chinaized as we talk Of its being Angli-
cized But the English language has
spread as far as # is going.
THE Chinese will be the greatest peo-
pie the Russians the greatest white polst-

GOV. TAET,s MISSION

Just what passed between the pope and
Governor Taft at their recent interview
the public does not know. but there is
a general impression that the question Of
the status Of the Catholic church in the
Philippines will soon be settled AMIGA
bly,. For a very long time prior to its
loss OF the Philippines Spain had main
tanned fits hold upon those islands largely
through the influence Of the friars. They
had complete control of public schools,
the charities and other interests of the
government. The religious orders con-
sequentIy became very powerful among
the masses and obtained grants to a vast
quantity Of land.
In the course of time opposition to the
friars developed to an alarming extent
among the F1lipinos.
It is said that the two latest popular
uprisings against Spanish rule were due
10 this feeling.
A great number OF the frlars were ex-
PEELED from their parishes before our
government became possessed of the
country and throughout the islands the
religious orders were badly broken up.
The Philippine commission has declined
to restore the expelled friars and the re-
ngious orders to their former possessions.
and the question as TO what policy the
United States shall adopt concerning the
Catholic church in the Philippines is yet
10 be determined.
Governor Taft believes that the return
OF the friars and the reassertion Of the
authority OF the church would renew the
and ,roh1arr7 n
peaceful government in the Philippines

DOCTORS CLEMENS AND HARRIS

Last week two of the famous writers
of the United States reviewed honorary
college degrees. 8
Mr.. Samuel L. Clemens, by decree of
the University of Missouri, became a doc
tor Of laws and a few days later the
trustees of Emory college decided to con-
fer the degree Of doctor of literature upon
Mr.. Joel Chandler Harris
Every body will agree that Mark Twain
and Uncle Remus have been worthily
honored.
The degrees that have been so fifty be-
slowed upon these two genial and rarely
gifted men have been abused so often
that it is refreshing to see them used with
due regard to their dignity and meaning.
Mr.. Clemens and Mr.. Harris are so
modest that they will probably Shrink
when addressed by the title Of doctor,
but we will all insist that they shall wear
the blushing honors they have so fairly
won.
We congratulate the institutions which
have conferred these distinctions as heart
lily as we do the recipients Of them.
Samuel L. Clemens, LII D., and Joel
Chandler Harris, d. L., sound well. We
hope to see all our colleges when they
20 into the business Of making honorary
doctors act with the discretion which has
characterized the University of Missouri
and Emory College.
