Chicago is in. a sadly demoralized condi-

away. 1t will be weeks, and perhaps
months before some of the men fully re-
cover from the effects of the terrific strug-
gle on Marshall Field. Long john Mil
Ter, the big guard and half back, suffered
serious injury to his left shoulder. 1t is
thought the clavicle Is slightly fractured
and physicians say he will not be able to
take part in another game this season. This
is great blow to the team, as Miller has
been tower of strength, and this injury
is the first he has ever received in
football contest. He was never before
compelled to retire from the field. Krull,
the Indianapolis end who played in Minch's
place at Chicago, is also badly injured
He Is nursing a case Of water on the knee
and his doctor will not allow him to play
for several weeks. Captain Leslie is
bruised and stiff, but will continue to play
MacManus is lame and sore, and others
feel the effects of Chicago's demoralizing
onslaughts. Coach Best will not talk much
of the Chicago game. He only says his
men were scared and seemed to be 'in a.

There will be some stiff practice this week
for the Illinois game and 1t is said a shake

Variety at the Empire.

The Merry Maidens Company has been a
regular visitor to the Empire Theater, and
for several years its organization has
changed little. Nellie Hanley leads the
chorus, and Dan Hiatt Is the principal
comedian. Hiatt and his wife have had a
musical sketch in the olio since they were
married on the stage of the Empire, in
view OF an audience, a few years ago. The
show Is in the usual form, and the bur-
lesques have the old tricks In them. The
chorus changes costume frequently and
capably sings long list of songs. In the
olio the Spencer brothers, Irish comedians,
sing parody that contains a verse about
John Mitchell. He is put forward as a
workingman's deliverer, and the sentiment
was received with heavy applause last
evening. The Tourist trio contributes a
number OF songs, and the Johnson trio
presents a sketch The well-known Nelson
family of acrobats is the principal feature
of the vaudeville section.
