told the officer that she was so large

with the little children. and when she
was told that she would either have

Frantz. of Enid. o. T.. widely known as
Home Run" Frantz, has been appoint
ed head coach of the baseball team
with sole charge of the work. FraEtz,
who is a second year man at the law
school, was first baseman on "Bill'
Reid's team in 1901 and led that team
at the bat. With the stick he was reve-
lation to college batsmen and early
earned the sobriquet of Home Run
The following year he was disqualified
from further playing. as he remembered
having done some playing In his early
days, which amounted to a violation of
Harvard's code. Rather than have the
matter brought up to his own detri-
ment and that of the university, he in
formed Professor Hollis. who disqualifi-
ed him. Frantz is a natural free hitter
with a superb style. and if he can inn
part his knack to the Crimson men,
there will be some tall batting averages
for Harvard.

Haskell Player Quits the Team on
Account of Sickness

Lawrence, Kan, Nov. 5.-Coach Herrn-
stein is working his Indians on some new
plays for use against the Chicago team
next Saturday. He is also getting some
good work out of the men on the old plays
and the Indians attack ought to be good
wht n they meet Stages team. Wheelock,
the big Carlisle player who has been play
ing a tackle with the Haskell team, left
today for his home. He has been troubled
a great deal this fall with. rheumat ism-
He has done some good work in the Has
kell line and will be greatly missed. He
was the heaviest man on the squad and
was especially valued on that account.
Falls, the star quarterback, Is slowly re-
covering from the effects of the Nebras-
ka game, but it is feared that he will not
be in condition to go into Saturday )
game. He has been kept out of the last
two games in the hope that he would be
in shape for the Chicago games, but he
was SO badly used up in the Nebraska
contest that a great deal of time was re-
quired for him to get back into condition.
There will be very little change in the
lineup for Saturday Lugo will take Vince
locks place at tackle and either Falls
or Moore will play quarter.

HAYsvILLE PAINTED BLACK
Halloween Franks May Get a Crowd
in Jeil.

Some Haysville boys out for a good
Tune halloween have committed an Of
tense for which, if they are apprehended
they will be severely punished. After pro-
curing bucket of coal tar they started
out to paint the village. The Rock Island
depot was first visited. The boys painted
the lower panes of all the front windows
the signs, the station mail box, the doors
and the inside of the outbuildings. They
proceeded up the tracks, where they
painted the switch stands and also the
switch lights, which was a very serious
proceeding, especially in the eyes of the
railroad company. After painting the
switch lights they proceeded across the
street to the Methodist church, where they
painted obscene inscriptions on the front
doors of that building. Then they gave
two of the colored glass windows thick
coat of the tar. The Woodman lodge hall
was the next place visited. There they
painted two lower doors and went south
TO the Christian church. At that place
of the church was painted with vile pic
lures and lettering, which ruined the front
or the building and makes it necessary
that it be reprinted.
The people of the community are very
much aroused and say that they will leave
no stone unturned to discover who the
persons are. They have already started a
subscription among the members of the
churches and inhabitants of the town for
that purpose.
1t is understood that Rock Island detec-
tives are at work on the case and that if
caught the offenders will have to face d
charge that may secure for them places
