AN AWFUL DEED.
Jealousy of Hosea Bowers Made Him
Shoot Sweetheart and Self.

Manhattan, Kan, Nov 2.-The murder
of Lenora Smith and the suicide of her
jealous lover Hosea Bowers, which occur
red on the Paddleton farm, ten miles
north of here Saturday, is one of the most
atrocious crimes perpetrated in this vicin-
ity for many years.
Bowers was crazed with jealousy and
had threatened to kill both Miss Smith
and a young man by the name of Lyman
White, who had also paid some attention
to Miss Smith while she was living with
the White family.
warrant for Bowers arrest for threat t
ening to kill had been applied for by
young White. but County Attorney
Brock out of the city the warrant
was not issued until Saturday and Sheriff
Beryle was on his way to arrest Bowers,
but did not arrive in time to prevent the
tragedy.
Bowers drove along the road in@the vi
entity of the Paddleford farm on Hill
creek and fired several pistol shots in the
air. About o'clock in the morning he
stopped at the house and called Miss
Smith to the door.
AS she appeared, without a word, Bow
ers fired one shot which pierced her heart.
killing her instantly. The Paddleford fam
lily rushed out of the house only to see
Miss Smith breathing her last and to hear
the second shot which he had fired into
his own heart, causing instant death
Miss Smith was the 1S-year-old daughter
of Cal Smith of the Easement stock ranch
just north of Manhattan. Bowers was so
years old. His parents live here

Harvard 10: Carlisle II.

Cambridge Mass. Nov. I'm an IN
tensely exciting and decidedly sensa-
tional football game. Harvard defeated
the Carlisle Indians, - to II.
The closeness of the score was made
possible by one of the most unique
tricks on football field for many years.
Dillon, at the start of the second half,
received the Harvard kickoff on his s.
yard line and then. hiding the ball I'M
der his jersey behind his back, ran the
length of the field empty handed, for d
touchdown.
There is apparently no rule covering
this trick, so the play stood, and the
score was Il to o in favor of the Indians,
as they had already scored a goal from
the field in the first half.
Harvard then took brace and push
ed the ball down the field for a touch
down. The second Harvard score came
a few minutes later, and was also made
by straight football. Marshall kicked
both goals. Carlisle made desperate but
unavailing efforts for another score in
the darkness.
The Indians first score came after II
minutes of play in the first half, when
on rushing the ball to the Harvard 20
yard line, johnson executed 4 goal from
the field.
The Indians, although having a rluch
lighter team, played all around Harvard
in the first half. but Weakened in the
second

HASKELL IL: Missouri o.

Kansas City, Nov. 2.-With the ram
falling in a steady downpour curing the
greater part of the fifty minutes OF
play and on a field that was ankle deep
in sticky mud, the Haskell Indians oe-
feated the Missouri Tigers at Assoc1a-
ton park The score was IL to 0. The
first of the Redskins touchdown was
made two minutes after the sounding
of the whistle announcing the begin
ming of hostilities. and the second was
made one minute and half before time
was called at the end of the last half
Neither was the result of what could be
called legitimate football, as tumble
was responsible for the first and the
second was scored after a sensational
S5-yard run by E. Hauser, Haskell s
doughty little right tackle.
Never was a field in poorer shape Tor
a. football game There was not spot
on the whole gridiron that was not
sloppy with mud, and in many places
the water stood in puddles, through
which the players. splashed and spiut-
tered Accurate play was Impossible
and the game did not bring out the
relative merits of the teams. 1t the IN
dams are stronger than the Tigers, as
no doubt they are, they had no chance
to demonstrate it. Their two touch
downs were due to luck. 1t was not
regulation, scientific football that won
them the game. At no time during the
game did either team have the ball IN
its possession longer than ten minutes:
If it was not lost on downs it changed

hands as the result of tumble Theii
mastered with a coating of Shiny mud,
it was clearly impossible for the men to
handle the pigskin with any degree OF
accuracy, and half of the time it was
impossible to tell whether the player
had the ball or whether it was buried
in the mud.

on SUNDAY.

Junction City, Kan, Nov. AT 10: 80
Sunday all the troops had left the
maneuver camp. Besides the squadron
of Fourth cavalry which started on it's
march to Fort Leavenworth and one
battalion of the Thirty-fifth infantry
from Fort Reno are also marching. The
two latter organizations started on the
march Sunday morning. The battalion
of the Twenty-fifth is marching to
Wichita, and will go from there to Reno
by rail.
1t took fourteen trains to move the
rest of the regulars from the camp to
their respective posts. The first train
left Camp Sanger at Z o'clock. Every
fifteen minutes a train ran into camp,
was loaded with equipment and troops,
and then departed 1t took just three
hours and a. half for the fourteen trains
to arrive, load and depart, and the
transportation was on one line, the
Union Pacific.
Major General Bates left the camp
President Burt's special train, on which
he departed for Omaha. Colonel Nc
Clernard, the generals chief of staff,
accompanied him. 1t will probably be
two weeks before all the work of NOV
ing the stores and supplies from the
camp is finished.
Manhattan, Kan, Nov. 2.-The
Fourth cavalry camped here Saturday
night and left Sunday on return to
Leavenworth from Fort Riley. A steady

Prineaton "a: cornell Q.

Princeton, N. J., Nov. 2.-Princeton de-
feated Cornell by the. score of A to o.
Princeton gained at will through the CEN
ter of the line and seldom failed to work
end runs for substantial gains. Cornell
was helpless when she had the ball and
succeeded IN retaining it until the second
Cornell gained her first down but five
times while Princeton was held for downs
twice.
Princeton kicked off and when the ball
was returned rushed it back by steady
gains until Dewitt failed on drop kick
from the 25-yard line. Cornell punted out
of danger. By sending Foulke around the
end and Miller through center Princeton
reached the 4-yard line and Kafer scored.
Cornelfs line weakened and a second
score followed end runs by kafer and CEN
ter plunges by Cooney and Miller
On the next KICKOFF Rice slkirted left end
for 40 yards and rea ched the 30-yard line
before being downed by Vetterlein. De-
witt made futile efforts to kick a goal,
but after Burke's long run of ~ yards, he
scored a field goal from the 2-yard line.
This was his third effort. The. first half
ended II to 0.
Although Princeton used a substitute
team in the second half the task was still
easier being merely a question of how
many points could be rolled up before
time was called. Kafer and Cooney scored
from the 27-yard line.
On the 4-yard line Cornell took a brace
and held Princeton for downs. Foulks

Self-Confessed Murderer Lodged In
Jail at Salina.

Salina, Kas., Nov. ED I-arkin. the
self-confessed murderer of Harvey
Bardonnar, surrendered to Police Off
Ger Shanahan Saturday afternoon, and
by o'clock the young man had been
placed in a closed cell at the county
jail.
Although the city had been searched
of town. He was in hiding and had
been kept posted on all developments in
the case
He realized. however. that sooner or
later he must stand trial for the kill
ing of Bardonnar, and through the in
fuence of relatives he was induced to
surrender. He insisted that he sur
rendered to John Shanahan, of the local
police force. only because he was per-
sonally acquainted with the officer.
! City Marshal Thompson was notified
by L.arkin's brother that the murderer
would be produced provided he was
guaranteed protection. Secret arrange
ments were made by Larkin's relatives
and the officers, and Larkin was
! brought from his hiding place at the
Whitman hotel and turned over to
Shan9han.
How I4arkin managed to be secreted
from the officers is a mystery to the
public. The prisoner and others who
know regarding his forty hours of
seclusion, refuse to talk The hotel had
been thoroughly searched and the
young man was not found. 1arkin adj
mitted to q reporter that he had been
at the hotel most of the time. 1t is
possible that he was Secreted in a dry
well under the building.
Larkin is almost broken down. The
crime is beginning to tell on the boy.
He is still very pale and nervous He
will plead self defense.

WAS THE CENSUS PADDED
Atchison Receives Much More School
Money Than She Should.

Atchison, Nov. 2.-The Atchison news
papers are stirred I'D over the apparent
loss in school population of this city over
last year. One of them says: Last year
the school census for Atchison was g.
O66; this year it is 3,734. a loss of 1882.
This year the census had to be sworn to;
last year the school population was
guessed at. The poor showing last year
in attendance of school children was
because the population of school chill
dren in Atchison was placed too high.
AS a consequence of last years census
the schools of Atchison, received over
81, 900 that they were not entitled to, This
year and next the schools will receive
81. 900 less than last year. Last year the
school population of Atchison county
was 10, 2O2: this year it is 1904. differ
ence of 2,598 between the two years.

The plavers are a unit in their COM

because the Gophers slugged him, but
because they seemed to be bent on

would send 'fYost's wonders" home in
