NO DOUBLE HEADER WILL BE
PLAYED

The management Of the Buchtel
football team visited the East Akron
management Wednesday with propo-
sition for playing double header Sat
urday on Buchtel field, instead Of hav-
ing the games apart and the crowd sep
arated. It was suggested that they
both play on Buchtel field, and that a
double admission be charged The
proposition was rejected by the East
Akron officials, it being argued that
one of the two games would have to be
begun too early to get the crowd, and
that tho attendance would be very
small, In case double admission wal
charged.

Lucky Days.

The belief in the special luck, bad
or good attaching to certain days Of
the week is as old as the hills. Some
great men have believed that particu-
lar days of the month are specially
propitious to them. Napoleon's day
was March 20; Cromwel's was Sep
tember 3; the great emperor Charles
V. was his star in the ascendant on
February "a; and so with others.
But the belief in specially lucky days
of the week has been much more gen.
eral than that in certain days of the
month. The mighty and the humble,
the civilized and the barbarous, have
alike shared in this belief. Louis
XIII. of France set store by Friday.
and when he lay dying on Thursday
vainly longed for a few more hours
of life, which might have brought him
to his lucky Friday. Pope Sixtus V.
had a special reg gArd for Wednesday.
Other great men have liked or feared
this or that day. Many humber peo-
pie share the same feeling, and prob
ably every day of the week has it's
votaries. Even Friday, which is
much more associated in the popular
mind with ill-luck than with good for
tune is lucky day to some good
folk.

ported to the Orrins that the big Gle
plant WAS acting strangely. A sur
Grun was sent for but he could not dis
cover whpi was wrong. The keeper
the next day reported that the animal
would not eat. The surgeon was sent
for again. and he found that the Gle
plants tuSk was dccaying at the roots.
Cocaine was injected and other med
irine applied TO ease the pain, but the
big fellow seemed to suffer more each
day. SO it was decided to pull the tnSk.
But how to do it was another thing.
The surgeon, with his assistant, how
ever. decided on Il plan. | was invited
by the agent to witness the operation.
"Thc big elephant was led into the
middle Of the mcnagcrie, where stakes
had been driven. He was then chained
10 the stakes and pulled back on his
ha"n"hcS. His big trunk WAS strapped
up over his back, Animal keepers were
stationed all around with hooks to
fight him If he became mad during the
operation. The doctors then began
work. Almost "A water bucket fun Of
cochiIie was in .icrted into the gum and

tookan angurand bored hole through
tie tusk near the gum. This took
long time. but every now and then more
dope would be injected. After the
hole was bored through he tusk steel
rod was showed through the hole. 10
this strong rope was attached. The
long rope was then covered with tar,
ana the rope was wound around the
tusk. The rope was then run through
pulley attached to several stakes. A
team of -four horses was in readiness
and the rope was attached to the traces.
When everything was secure the horses
were whipped mp. II was a long, hard
pull. but out came the big tusk. The
monster elephant, however. fought
and tried to get away, but he was
chained so well that he was powerless.
After the tnsk came out the big fellow
was released. and he went back to his
quarters, evidently more satisfied
than any one with the operation.
