she being the only daughter Of a

In the death Of Mrs. Mcdaniel,
this community is deprived of ono of

URBANA, ILL.,, Sept 17.-As a change
from the sweltering weather that has ham,
pered the practice of the football squad
since their return from Spring lake, the
weather man sent rain 10 Illinois Field
yesterday afternoon. The chill-edged at
mosphere was not unwelcome to the grid
iron warriors, who had so lately been
famed by the cooling breezes Of the north
and in spite of the all-day drizzle they got
down to work with vim and enthusiasm.
Saturday they win play the first game OF
the season with Englewood, and they
will have TO meet one of the best high
school teams in the West they are buckling
down TO work in earnest.
Only light work was given the candidates
by Coach Woodruff, who contented him
self with running two elevens through sig
nal practice. The coach occupied himself
with the remainder of the squad and a
football.
Knorr. who promised TO come and try
for end, has not yet put i'm an appearance.
and the manager has about given him up.
This is a great disappointment to the coach.
who was depending upon HIM TO help whip
in some of the raw material There was
noteworthy addition to the squad, how
ever, I'm the person of a player named
Smith, who was brought to the gymnasium
by Professor Pickett, OF the college OF
law, in which the young man had just en-
was a member of the team from West
Point that defeated Tale a few years ago,
and he was gladly welcomed.
1t is now reported that 1t is the intention
of Coach Woodruff TO use Captain Rothgeb
and Fairweather in the line OF defense and
revive a form of the old guards back"
formation. which put Pennsylvania in the
front ranks of football 1t is the intention
of the coach TO use this formation In Sat-
urdays game.
Dutch Diener, who promises to be one
of mi m he.
ball-carrying department, has only done
light work since his return from Spring
lake. He wrenched his knee while up
north, and although the injury IL painful
it will not keep him out of active work very
long. Fairweather is likewise out OF prac-
tice. He was tackled hard by Rump In
Tuesday evenings practice. and the coach
is giving him plenty Of time TO get his wind

COLUMBUS. o., Sept. 1.-THE last OF the
series between Indianapolis and Columbus
wes played here this afternoon, and the
score OF ) to tells the story of how Colum-
bus did not play the game. Young Ford
was out TO do battle and scored a shut-out
against the locals with I'VE runs on his side
OF the column. He pitched superb base
ball and but once did he get into hole.
This time the bases were filled by walk
and two singles. yet it seemed he did the
trick just to see himself pull out of the
hole. He smiled as he put the crimps into
Mellor and famed him. and his counte-
nance further lighted up when he retired
Wagner on a high pop-up undoing all the
bad work he did before. This was the only
chance the locals had to score.
The visitors got a man across the rubber
in the third inning through a hit by a
pitched ball, an error and free pass by
Hardy, the young twirler, who was being
tried out by Columbus. Hardy at that
pitched good ball. and will do with good
yellow game in the field and batted like
dopesters. The game which has lost for
them steadily OF late was repeated again
the other hand. indianapolis played stel-
lar game Hogriever made sensational
catch or OF Hardy's bat and then "Cy'
Coulter bagged liner after dive into the
air which set the small crowd wild. The
locals could not hit the ball. They fielded
poorly and erred at CRITICAL times In di-
rect contrast TO the visitors. The runs
came thickest in the fifth inning. In this
round Kihm opened by getting a walk to
first. Fox and Hogriever both singled and
kfhm scored. Mellor's bad error let Wood
ruff get life at first and Hogriever scored
after Fox. The three runs came fast and
the game was won right there. Score:

practicing yesterday afternoon for
Coach Cults had his teams pitted
against one another for half an
hour. The varsity exhibited greater
strength and skill than on the night
before. the backs showing up exceedingly
well. Perhaps no individual member Of the
team appeared to such advantage as
Thomas, the new full back. Aided by strong
interference the clever young man ad-
vanced the ball again and again. finding
holes i'm every position of the scrubbs' line.
Hotter who is also a candidate for full
back on the varsity, excelled in punting.
Could either OF the two candidates for full
back combine the good qualities Of both
Purdue would have one of the best full
backs in the West. Thomas is weak at
punting. but is stronger than Hotter in
every other respect. Coach Cults con-
tinues to play Thomas on the varsity and
it is likely that Leslie or Mowrey may be
depended on TO do the punting. Mowrey

as to his teams strength. but il is appar-

played quarter back, only taking ends posi-

CRISIS EXPECTED IN HIS AILMENT
WITHIN TwENTY-FOUR HOURS.
If No UnfavOrabIe Symptoms Develop
the Doctors Think He VIII
Speedily Get Well.

CHICAGO, Sept. 17.-Sir Thomas Upton,
who is ill of catarrhal appendicitis at his
apartments in the Auditorium Annex, passed
a quiet night and is doing well, according
to statement made by DIR. Thomas this
morning. To Alexander II. Revelle, Sir
Thomas's host who was an early caller,
the patient said: i've been an awfully sick
man, but I'm easier now.' Mr.. Revelle said
he believed the patients condition very en-
Couraging. DR.. Thomas spent the night in
a room of the Upton suite, but aside from
ordinary sickroom duties there was no ur-
gent need for his services.
The condition of Sir Thomas continued to
improve during the forenoon. At noon DR..
Homer NJ. Thomas gave out the following
statement: ''Sir Thomas is resting much
easier this morning, and his condition is
now perfectly satisfactory"
At 10 o'clock the physicians reported that
the condition of Sir Thomas was entirely
satisfactory. The crisis is expected within
the next twenty-four hours. If no evil
symptoms within that time his speedy re-
covery Is said to be certain.

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Sept. E.-Notwith-
standing the warm day yesterday, Captain
Salmon gave Notre Danes football squad
its hardest workout Of the season, and. al
though the practice was short, IL was fast.
and the men showed signs of WEAKNESS
when they came in from the field. Nyere
and Lonergan, the veteran ends OF last sea-
son, were out with the squad, and both en-
tered the practice with spirit. Nyere. who
is rather unfortunate in being the victim OF
frequent accidents. came out OF the play
Yesterday with slight limp. occasioned by
an injury to his ankle
The number Of candidates out yesterday
was the largest yet 10 report. and among
them are some good men. Donovan, who
Is from ST. Vincent College. and who made
a good record as a prep. full back, turned
is early TO make predictions he seems TO
understand football tactics we'll and IN the
sprints he led the squad.
The first half hour was spent yesterday in
catching punts and then Salmon took the
candidates for back position and three line
candidates in and put them 10 passing and
carrying the ball Silver worked at quar-
ter and almost all the new men We're given
a chance to carry the pigskin. The last
part of the hour was spent In running
down punts and at the conclusion OF the
practice Holland sent the linemen at
brisk pace around the Brownson campus
track.
Many new students came in yesterday
and last night. The Pennsylvania students
are looked for to-day, and IL Is probable
that there will be some likely youngsters
in the crowd. Fansler did not report yes
terday, but has sent word that he will be
in to-day. Football prospects are the best
to-day that they have been since school
began and each day sees an improvement
