SPY WAS A SHOEMAKER.

Madison, Wis, Nov. 7.-Footbnll practice yes
terday afternoon was seriously interfered with
by the appearance Of a stranger who followed
the men out to the golf grounds where the team
was to practice.
The suspicious Of Coach King We're aroused
and when the man was asked where he was from
he replied that he was from Northwestern, and
desired to watch the practice of the team
When asked to leave the grounds, the stranger
was obdurate and refused to move beyond the
slstance of Coach King, but his pleadings were
without avail. Next Sakigowa, the little Jap,
called upon and his appearance caused the
stranger to retreat, but the stranger was not
deprived of watching the practice, and climbing
upon box of the Illinois Central standing
outside the field caused the practice to be de-
ayed till nearly dark.
1t developed later that the stranger was
George White, a Madison shoemaker. who had
gone out to watch the practice and afterward
get line the Minnesota game as to place
a small wager the result.
In the signal ractice the Nnemen were coached
charging and tho backs on forming 1ntefer-
ence and getting into the plays together. Fol-
lowing this the varsity was lined up against the
second team for fifteen mnues Of scrimmage, In
which the veterans were allowed to keep the
ball, although the scrubs held them several times
for downs
At times the varsity men played fast game.
Their work on the whole was very ragged and
not satisfactory to Coach King. The backs were
rather slow in starting and did not help each
other in the plays.
Captain Juneau is still on crutches 1t begins
to look IL he would not get In shape
for the Minnesota game. His lame knee is i'm
pied list with weak ankle, but he managed to
go through the signal practice and scrimmage,
each night All the regular varsity men were In
the line up except Captain Juneau.

President Ban Johnson returned to Chicago

NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA
A CURE FOR ALL.
Not Patent Cure-All, Nor Modern
Miracle, but Simply a Rational
Cure for DvspepsIa


Miracle, but Simply Rational
Cure for Dyspepsia.
In these days Of humbuggery and de-
ception, the ma nufa cturers Of patent med
icines, as a rule, seem to think their
medicines will not sell unless they claim
that it will cure every disease under the
sun. And they never think of leaving out
dyspepsia and stomach troubles. They are
sure to claim that their nostrum Is abso-
lutely certain to cure every dyspeptic and
he need look no further.
In the face Of these absurd claims it is
refreshing to note that the proprietors of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have carefully
refrained from making any undue claims
or false representations regarding the
merits Of this most excellent remedy for
dyspepsia and stomach troubles. They
make but enc claim for it, and that is,
that for indigestion and various stomach
troubles Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a
radical cure. They go no farther than
this and any man or woman suffering
from indigestion, chronic or nervous dys-
pepsia, who will give the remedy a trial
will find that nothing is claimed for it that
the facts will not fully sustain.
1t Is a modern discovery, composed of
harmless vegetable ingredients acceptable
to the weakest or most delicate stomach.
Its great success In curing stomach
troubles Is due to the fact that the med
ical properties are such that 1t will digest
whatever wholesome food Is taken into
the stomach, no matter whether the stom
ach is in good working order or not. 1t
rests the overworked organ and replcn-
ishes the body. the blood. the nerves. Gre
ating, healthy appetite, gives refreshing
sleep and the blessings which always &C
company a good digestion and proper as
sanitation Of food.
In using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets nc
dieting Is required. Simply eat plenty OF
wholesome food and take these Tablets at
each meal, thus assisting and resting the
stomach which rapidly regains its proper
digestive power. when the Tablets will
be no longer required. ~ ~ TX. -. {,
Nervous Dyspepsia is simply a condition
in which some portion or portions Of the
nervous system are not properly nour-
ished. Good digestion invigorates the
nervous system and every organ in the
body.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold BY
ill druggists at so cents per package.

CORNELL EASES UP,

Ithaca, n. Y. Nov. 7-Cornell has not been
able to accomplish much during the past week,
and the eleven will enter the Washington and
Jefferson game with special preparation.
The coaches fear that the players have got stale,
and on this account the work Of the week has
been especially light.
OF the varsity men who reported yesterday,
the most that required a short run
aside from half hour spent in kicking the
ball. although Captain Warner and Davitt of
tneir accord. went in at tackle on q scrub
eleven. AS far as injuries to players are con-
cerned. Cornell is fairly fortunate for Smith,
Warner Hunt and Brewster seem to be entirely
we'll. Purcel's swollen toe is cause for alarm
and he may be out of the game permanently.

Non-Partizan View.
A dispatch from Chicago gives very
good non-partizan view Of tomorrow s
game, as follows: -
illinois game with Minnesota is the
one event In western football Saturday
that is looked forward to with consider
able interest. The Illini have gone to the
twin cities with the expressed intention
of defeating the gophers. 1t is likely that
the team from Champaign and many Of
it's hackers really think that Illinois will
win. There is no reason why they should
not have this opinion.
when you once think 1t over Mime
sofas great prowess just at present is
based on single game-the contest last
Saturday. One game Is hardly enough to
prove the mettle Of an eleVen-especially
when that game against a team as weak
Grinnel probably is.
Minnesota is naturally the favorite for
the game with Illinois, but the chances
of the Illini are far from being gloomy.
They are very good indeed. Illinois has
had pretty good try out already this
season. 1t has been beaten, too. and that
means that the members Of the eleven
have probably learned a good deal.
Whether they win or not, Coach Holt s
players will give Minnesota hard game"

STUDENT STRIKERS WIN.

Northfeld. Mimi. Nov. THE boys of the
Northfield high school football team, who stood
by the captain and manager, whom the super
intendent suspended from school, have won a
victory.
The school board held meeting and decided
to allow the captain and manager to return to
school. which all the boys wished, and to-
day all will return.
It was at first thought that trouble would
result but itseems that the school board be-

things right.

TO-MORROW'S LINEUP.

Twenty-Five husky looking men from
Illinois arrived in Minneapolis this morn
ing. At and ready for to morrow's battle
with Minnesota on Northrop field. The
squad is quartered at the West Hotel.
Athletic Director Huff expressed the
opinion that his men would win
the game. He expressed the opinion
that Illinois would average lighter
than Minnesota, but according to
the schedule Of weights handed
out by MIR. Huff himself. there will be
scarcely a pound difference in the weight
of the two teams per man.
Coach Holt said that Illinois was not in
the best Of condition, but so far as an es-
innate can be made from seeing the
players In citizens rig, the visitors are
very fit. They run to extremes. Half
the men are tall and rangy. the other
half short and stocky. The members of
the team expressed the belief that to 2
on Minnesota were the logical odds on
to-norrow's game. They said that the
few rooters who accompanied the team
would take all the money they could get
at those terms.
