a reporter Of the St. Louis Post-Dls-
patch a note OF ~veudoation on a story
o: bis last visit to Hannibal, Mo; his
birthplace, and a few good by words to
his old Missouri friends.
The note Is a touch of palhos to a
story full Of humor and will be printed
with the story IN the tweuty-inh
birthday number OF the Post Dispatch,
which is to be issued Sunday, Dec. l3
One of the novelties the Post-Dis-
patch will include in this number is an
airsbIp view OF the Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition, which Is rapidly
nearing completion. This comprehen
sive picture will be printed 10 ten col
ors and will occupy a double page.
From a newspaper makers standpoint
this double page in colors is a distinct
triumph and has but a few presidents
The difficult in printing so large a
picture, even on the best modern news
paper presses, are so great as to deter
most publishers from making the effort
even when the subject demands such
treatment. The POST Dispatch has

Stale University News.

The chances now seem good for the
University of Missouri TO win in its
fght for pure athletics. The Univer-
sity has insisted for some years that
only bona ide students able to do
creditable work in their studies should
take part ID athletic events. For a
good while it was almost alone in the
enforcement of this RECRUITMENT. Now
Kansas University is demanding the
same standard. This week Kansas
severed all athletic relations with Ne
braska University because of profess
sionalism in the Nebraska institution.
Prof. F. B. Mumford of the Unlver-
sity of the University of Missouri in his
address to the Worlds Fair Board urg-
ing an increase OF the appropriation
for the Missouri live sto k exhibit from
$4,000 to 500, 900 brought out some
surprising Information IN regard to the
magnitude of the live stock industry of
the state. The yearly income from
live stock, IN Missouri, according to
the last census, is one and one-half
times Us great as the income from the
fourteen leading manufacturing indus
tries, sixteen times that of all the min
ing industries, t%wenty-four times that
OF all the horticultural industries, and
eleven times thst of all the cereals
combined. When the census was tax
en- only 80 per cent OF the farmers gave
live stock as the chief source of income
yet these had 70 per cent of the income
OF the entire state from agricultural
products.
