FOOTBALL
ALL ARE SHUT out
Practice of the Varsity Team Is
/. Now of Strictly Secret
y 81 Sort. u
Complaints Are Heard Of Supply of
I. Seats for the Michigan
:, Game. =

Persons holding Secret practice per-
nits for Northrop field were notlhed
last evening that their presence would
not be desired until after the M1chl-
gan game on Oct. 81. Extreme Vlgl-
lance on the part of DR.. William
guards last evening prevented any one
except coaches and players from see
ing what went on inside the gates.
The team was out longer than usual
and it is understood that most or the
time was confined to pract1clng the
new formations which will be used
against Michigan a week from SAT-
urday. Heretofore it has been the
practice of DR.. Williams to use dlf-
ferent set Of plays against each OF the
conference teams and 1t is evident that
he has few surprises in store Tor the
wolverines. The work OF the men In
the line inspires more and more con-
fidence at every practice and altho the
men are not quite so heavy as the men
of the past few years they are playing
q fast and sure game.
a The rOoters will not lay much stress
on the BelOit game tomorrow whether
or not the score should be larger than
that run up by Michigan and W1scon-
sin. No one knows whether many OF
the second team men will be in the
lineup or not and as comparative
scores are never seriously considered
ut Minnesota it is quite possible that
the scrubs will be given an opportun-
ity to show their worth. Thus far
there have been no bets to the effect
that the Wisconsin score will be eX-
ceded. On the other hand Minnesota
may endeavor to reach the hundred
mark as 1t will be the first game with
team that has met the larger con-
ference elevens.
Tickets for the Michigan game were
placed on sale this morning and altho
the management had promised that
there would be good seats for every
one many patrons are complaining be-
cause three of the best sections have
been sent out Of the city. Two sec
tions were sent to Ann Arbor and one
to st. Paul. From current reports the
delegation from Michigan will not be
large, due to the desire of most Of the
students to attend the Chicago game
later in the season. If the two sec
tions are not sold out the unsold seats
will, Of course, be. returned, but they
will not be placed on sale before the
morning of the game. If this is the
case the Minneapolis patrons will have
to put up with bleacher seats. ~'.
The prices for the Michigan game
will be: General admission, $3.50:
reserved seats, 50, and boxes $3.50
and SO. -. ...-.
Line up Tomorrow.
The line up Of the Minnesota team
Tomorrow will be:

field, quarterback; Davies, left half

seminary and viii settle down to his
church. He means business. The other
fellow is just amusing himself"
"Well, / don't know. Cameron is a
sprightly young fellow, and l don't
think there's any bad In him"
The rivals were certainly very difTer-
ent. Evan Cameron was whole
souled, hail fellow well met young man
who usually made himself out much
worse than be was. The consequence
was that every one except Carrie
Woods father considered him a tribe
better than be was. Farnam Lamkie
looked with horror on all that was not
positively righteous. consequently some
people regarded him not quite So good
as he pretended However, both young
men were unexceptional characters.
and either would have made a good
husband for Carrie Wood. Carrie pre-
ferred Cameron. but her father was so
bitterly opposed to him that she dare
not encourage him.

Afr. and Mrs. Wood Invited their own
and their daughters friends TO an

lecturer accompanied his discourse with

a trip to the Holy Land. Mr.. Lamkle

Miss Wood selected a seat farthest IN
the rear and at the left OF the line.
Mr.. Cameron stood leaning against the
wall on the opposite side Of the room
and near the front
The evening was nearly spent, the
lecturer was approaching Jerusalem
and the end Of his discourse, when
something gave way in the stereopti-
con. and even that light which was
permitted to fall only on the screen
was suddenly extinguished In ten
seconds after the accident there was
heard proceeding from the identical
spot where Miss Wood and the young
theolog were sitting a kiss. It was not
a brotherly nor sisterly nor a filial
kiss. 1t was not a short kiss, nor was
it very long, but there was in it a
great deal Of body-a kiss to set the
young pairs OF lovers In the room TIM

electric button and turned on the light
But half minute had elapsed before
he succeeded in doing this. The sud

scarlet, and Miss Wood was rosy red.
Mr.. Cameron was observed standing
in the position he had occupied when
the lecture began and was the only
person in the room who had the good
taste to refrain from staring at the
much observed couple.
The guests were shocked. Mr.. Wood
was furious and was inclined to order
the offender from the house. That Of
fender took the first opportunity to go
TO the host and FASTENED to assert his
innocence. He was not believed by Mr..
Wood, who turned his back upon him.
Miss Carrie tried to laugh the matter

serted that any man sitting by so love

Mr. Lamkie after this episode was
not In position to press his suit for

dare be seen with her for fear OF excit-

to his face the moment he came into
her presence when others were about.
She manifested no displeasure with
him, but this did not save him from
being criticised for conduct at least
unbecoming to the cloth, It was not
remarkable that his rival. having the

NEW THEORY OF EATING.
EngIlshman FavOrs Thorough Mas
ticntion and Much Less Food.

ticatton and Much Less Food.
Horace Fletcher. an English mer-
chant resident in Italy, has made a Sc
rious attack on the eating habit, says
the Chicago Chronicle. BY experiments
on himself and others he claims to
prove that even the SO called daily ra-
ton prescribed by science is so per cent
too large He holds that the energy
needed TO digest the surplus half is a
total loss Of vital force. He holds also.
and this is the gist Of his theories, that
worse fault than eating too much is
not masticating thoroughly and that
less than half in amount of food mas
ticated four to five times as long as is
customary sustains life. strength and
flesh far better than is now done and
does not furnish the causes of the in
digestion and many OF the diseases
common among all peoples. 1t is said
that our war department is now max
ing thorough investigation of the sub.
Ject, which may be said to be a guar
antee that it is no joke
1t is curious theory and not the
least Of its possibilities are economic.
II nearly everybody eats so per cent
too much and all the people of the
United States could be educated to
eat according to Mr.. Fletcher's theory
the saving. subtracted from the daily
trade Of dealers in all kinds of provi-
sions, would create disturbance in the
market and readjustment Of occupa-
tions all along the line.
