NINETEEN FOOTBALL PLAYERS
HAVE MET DEATH THIS YEAR

Nineteen lives were lost on the football
field during the season of 1908, one boy
was driven insane from injuries and thir-
teen players were severely hurt, some OF
them being disabled for life The num-
Der OF minor but painful accidents goes
into the hundreds, and the list of the Sc
verely injured necessarily also is incom-
plete
The feature OF the years tabulation
is that it shows serious casualties prac-
tically were confined to unframed play
ers. No member OF any OF the tirst-class
eeyens was killed or permanently dis
abled. One Yale player and one Har-
ward player suffered a broken leg.
No player in any one Of the teams of
tho "big nine" in the West was the vic
tim of any hurt worse than wrenched
shoulder, bruised head, spraned
knee or turned ankle
In consequence of the injuries sus-
tanned by their players several of the
minor schools have forbidden the game
of football Two towns-Columbus
Junction. Pa, and Greenfield, Ohio
have stopped the sport MS the result Of
petitions circulated by parents.
The list of dead this season is as fol-
lows:
Sept ls-G Gustav Becher, Lake Forest

The injuries, minor injuries they are
called only in football, run up into the
hundreds. Scarcely a team in the coun-
try is without its list OF broken bones
and dislocations. The list OF nineteen
dead does not include large percentage
Of the team from Purdue University,
who were killed in n wreck on their way
to play game.

%CHOOAS
1n-D { COLLEGES

More young men and women are re-
ceiving college education this year than
ever before in this country. Sure indica-
ton OF this educational fact is gained
from enrolment reports received by the
Chicago Record Herald from sixty-iive
prominent institutions or = aiming, j asst
years phenomenal attendance OF $4,000
Mt these schools is now increased to more
than $4,000. The growth reported does
not contine itself to any section OF the
United States or to any specific lines Of
work. The University OF California
shows n substantial addition to its roll OF
students, the University OF Maine does
likewise, and in the South and middle
West the deans and registrars report Il
similar increase. Higher requirements
for admission have not acted as re-
straining influence save In the case of
Brown University and few other iso-
lated instances. ltemized estimates Of
the attendance show that most of the
5000 new students are actual freshmen
and not postgraduate pupils. The pro-
fessional schools attached to the univer-
stiles have their share of the increase,
but it is in the undergraduate, academic
nj departments that the classes evidence
the greatest expansion. Schools of mu-
sic seem next in the favor OF seekers
after culture. 3is
1t Is probably not generally known
that the United States spends annually
on elementary education about $227 OO0,-
000-the exact figures for 1900-1901
were, according to the report of the
United States Commissioners Of Educa-
ton, $226, 043, 1856. Europe spent during
the same period approximately sag O00,-
600. The enrolment in the elementary
schools of Europe Is however, in the
neighborhood of 100000, while in the
United States it is not much more than
10000, OO0-although it Is estimated that
there were, in 1901, almost 100000
children Of school-going age in the Unit
ed States. The yearly expenditure per
pupil in the United States averages $22.
Some profit may be gained from a com
parison of the amounts spent yearly by
representative American cities for the
maintenance and operation of their pub
lie schools. New York spent in sin
gle year $40, 731 ,629; Chicago follows
with an outlay of $S,2O3, 493; Philadel-
phia's expenditure was $3,310,604; Bos-
toms, S3,O43 GAO; Baltimore's. $1,417 1902;
Cleveland's, $1257 ,345; and Washing
toms 81 1926. New Orleans is Mt the
end Of the list, with an expense Of only
$47S,025. st. Louis, by the way, pays
more for its police department. than for
its schools; $1,G02, 1872 for the former,
against $1,526, 140 for the latter-a ratio
of one dollar for the police to ninety-five
cents for the schools.

There was picturesque survival OF
old times Mt the Michaelmas hiring
fair ut High Wycombe recently.
In Buckinghamshlr old customs die
hard, and the fair Is now as popular
as ever among agricultural laborers
and farm servants seeking employ
ment.
Early In the morning the old mar

inghamshire, Berkshire, OXfordshre
and Middlcsex farm wagons and
brakes containing men and women
candidates, attircd In their Sunday
clothes, drove up amid Il scene Of bus
tie that may have been strange to
many. A few more of the more mod
ern rode bicycles.
There were youths OF both sexes
trying to improve their position or
their wages, and even aged Soilers OF
GO strove-and with considerable sue
cess, toto prove that they were
more valuable as farm halds than the
more youthful Of their competitors,
and worth more to othe. masters than

A large number continued the nm
Client practice Of indicating their call
Ing by wearing distinctive badge Or
ornament in their caps. For instance,
plowmen and others who understand
horses wore little knots OF plated

lambs from ewes under their care last

Work Finished In Ten Days.
Ten days after the commencement of
the regular session the Senate TRANSACTED
the business for which the President
called Congress together in extra session
last month. There has at no time been
n question Of the passage Of the bill put
ting into force tho reduction Of duties
provided for in the Cuban reciprocity
treaty. The House promptly disposed OF
It's work. There was danger, up to the
time Senator Culom of Illinois, chair
man of the foreign relations committee,
secured an agreement for vote on the
bill, that n flbuster would spring up
which would open wide tariff debate
and postpone the passage Of the bill UNI
til late in the winter.
Before the meeting OF the Senate the
Democrats held caucus to consider
party vote upon the bill. An effort was
made by the opposing Democratic Sena-
tors to hold their colleagues to caucus
action, and make the vote of the party
solid against the bill.
In this they failed. Had they sue
ceeded they could not have defeated the
BILL because the Republicans had pres
ent n este larger than the entire Demo
cratic strength and the bill would have
passed 46 to 81 had the party lines been
stmctly drawn and Mr. Bard OF Califor-

What New Treaty Means.
The convention with Cuba goes into

per cent Of the rates OF duty now inn
posed, while United States products will
be admitted to Cuba at a reduction of
Is, 30 and 40 per cent, according to the
articles ms enumerated in the treaty.

will give n much greater market in Cuba

BLOWS AND
BLOODSHED

A fight took place about noon We'd
nesday between Special Policeman
Bowen, doing duty at the Aultman
works during the molders' strike, and
one of the employees of the Pennsylva-
mia road who had been celebrating and
he sat down to rest near the tower
house on South Market street adjacent
to the Aultman works. 1t is claimed
that Bowen ordered the man to move
away and this re refused to do, where
upon both men started to fight out the
difficulty. Both men received some
bruises and blood was drawn on Boy
en-. The trouble was witnessed by a
large crowd of people who thought
that the striking molders had attacked
the special policeman.
1t is claimed that the policeman
took the railroader for molder or
one of the pickets,. and that he fol-
lowed him. up. The fight took place
upon the street car track and held up
traffic for time. The molders claim
that they do not know anything about
the man or his business at the Ault-
man shop.
