Chicago. Nov. 27.-Chicago university
surrendered the western football cham
pionship and went down to defeat be-
fore the University of Michigan, % to 0,
on Marshall field, in the annual Thanks
giving day contest. Some 10000 spec
tators braved the cold and five inches
of snow to see the game. Considerable
delay was experienced in starting the
game on account of the labor OF sweep
ing the snow off the gridiron- Coach
Stage had a fever, and attended the
game in a carriage, closely wrapped IN
blankets.
The usual vigor of the Chicago eleven
was missing. Michigan scored her first
touchdown in twelve minutes OF play
by smashing Heston and Longman
against the yielding Chicago line and
using Joe Maddox, right tackle, for
first downs when a few yards were
needed.
The left end of Chicago's line was
particularly vulnerable, and Speik-
Parry and Weightman were swept aside
by the rushes of Heston and Graver.
Five times Eckersall alone stood be-
tween Heston and the goal after Hes
ton had cirled left end So desperate
and wearisome was Eckersall's tackling
that he had to give way to Lee Maxwell
in the second half. Eckersall did not
do well in kicking, as was predicted by
those who had watched his work when
his goals from field won the game from
Wisconsin.
On Chicago's right side, where Schner,
Catlin and Maxwell proved strong in
defense Michigan did not gain much.
In the first half Michigan was held only
once for downs, and Chicago was pos
SCISSOR of the bali only three times.

Emporia, Kan, Nov. 27.-ThesGazette
says:
Here are some extracts from personal
letters received from the Gazette's CAD
ding editor. These were all written
fre4n the various villages the party has
been visiting. They have now left the
villages and are in the grand canyons
I'VE were late in starting yesterday,
and got into the village too late to send
the women on down to the missionaries,
so we rented a native house-orle room
of It for so cents and all bunlIed to-
Eether on the eaFthen floor. We cook
ed on the American stove and the In
dams washed dishes am established
as cook. We had cold meat-prepared
at OFaybi--bacon, fried potatoes, poach-
ed eggs on toast, melon, peaches, coffee
and light bread, bought Of the Oraybi
missionaries.
I'VE went over the village this morn
ing, and as got up to see the sun rise,
I found a ceremony going on which
we all witnessed. It was the fire cere=
Inony. They have these underground
churches, called keevas. at the mouth
of this keeva half a dozen priests clad
in ceremonial robes chanted soft, low
sweet minor song, plaintive as doves
cry, while down in the keeva the MGR
prieSt-sitting alOne-made fire by ruD-
bling two sticks together on an altar
The chant ended when the smoke came
out of the mouth of the keeva- ano
each priest took some meal, breathed g
low prayer on it, bowed north, west
south and east and looked up and dowr
the six directions-and threw the mea
on the fire down in the keeva. The fire
was then carried. with a solemn cere'
nonial dance to the other keevas, where
a short ceremony was given and thE
fire rekindled there and in all the piou;
<11ouses in the village. Dorsey says this
Is the only tribe on the American con
tinent that renews its fire this way.
IT got up at 4 o'clock this morning
much to my own surprise, for had M
idea of getting up-and went to the tot
of the mesa to the village to see thu
sun rise. We picked up and got on {
house top-the house owned by Aiken
the artist Here we saw the marvelou
desert sunrise and heard in the keeva-
an underground church-the morning
sunrise chant of the priests and chill
dren. 1t was a most joyous chorus
and the procession came out onto
