FARRAGHER's STAR SETS.
Notre Danes Faculty Disqua1ihes
Him for Team Work This Year.


Special to the indianapolis Journal.
SOUTH BEND, Ind. Oct. S.-The faculty
board of athletic control at Notre Dame
presented the second dose of disappoint-
ment to the rooters last night, when Far
ragher was disqualified from playing on the
varsity this season. Farragher left school
at the beginning of the Christmas vacation
last year and did not resume class work
until this fall. He put up a strong game at
tackle last season and football enthusiasts
rejoiced when he pulled in about ten days
ago. There were big holes in the line and
he was counted on to fill a large place. He
is one of the best tackles that ever playeo
on a Notre Dame eleven, but the action OF
the board is Anal and his playing out OF
the question. His return, however, Will De
to the teams advantage, as he Will work
with the scrubs, and while giving the line
some hard practice, will contribute his ex-
perience to developing the tackles. With
the setting of Farragher's star, that of Gil
len rises to prominence and his appearance
on the field to-day in uniform was nailed
with delight. He was worked at his old po-
sition at guard and ran signals with the
varsity. He will be a powerful addition TO
the team and with F~arragher in the line,
Salmon. As the day WIS very warm the
men were given a fast signal practice, lined
up quickly and sent into the formations
with speed. Draper and Fisher are being
given lots of work and will probably figure
in Saturdays game with Lake Forest.
Nyere was out to-day. Nyere was out after
several days lay-of. Beacom's work is a
feature. and If he gets freshman standing
in time, will have no difficulty in making
the team.

ALEXANDRIA, Ind, Oct. Sit is re-
ported that the Kelly AK Manufacturing
Company has gone into a trust composed
of all the ak factories in the country. The
new combination is to be called the Ameri-
can AK and Tool Company. Charles d.
Gates. of New York. is said to be the pro-
moter. The Kellys have always stood out
and fought the ak combination. They
have been able to do so successfully on
account of the cheap fuel afforded them
by being situated in the natural-gas belt.
The manufa cturers tried to fight them by
manufacturing scythes and other tools of
that character and putting the prices on
them high enough to yield a profit and
make up for what they were unable to
make on their axes. This year the Kellys
have entered the field with a line of scythes.
This is supposed to be the immediate cause
Of the combination.
