M'GRAw's MEN DON'T QUIT.
Intend to BE Ready to Play the Bos-
ton Americans.

New York, Oct. 21--The action of
John T. Brush in expressing his will
Hngness to allow the New York Ma
tional league team to engage in both
ante-season and post-season games,
came as a great surprise to the Giants,
who thought that no amount of pub
lie condemnation could dissuade Mr..
Brush from his intention to perma-
nently ignore the American league.
Brush has taken his first step to
prove the sincerity of his assertions by
instructing Manager McGraw to see
that the Giants will not be caught
mapping III the event of the National
league supporting his views regarding
ante-season and post-season contests
with the American league. McGraw,
consequently. has ordered his players
to indulge in light training until
March, when they will be taken south
and put through siege OF hard work.
McGrawS order was issued in an
ticipation of an ante-seaSon series
with the Boston American league club,
the members of which have Endorsed
Brush's suggestions, as stated in his
letters to President Pulliam. The
Giants are happy at the opportunity
of meeting the worlds champions.
Several of them have notified Pres
ident Brush that they will be ready
to play Collins team in less than four
weeks after they report for spring
practice.

Football Carnival I'm Topeka on

Two Games Scheduled for WASH

FIRST ONE AT 2 p. nj.
Second Will Be Called at sac
O'clock.

Saturdays football games on Wash
burn field will be as follows:
p. m. Kansas City Central High
school VS.. Topeka High school.
$3.50 p. m Washburn college VS.. Doane
university of Crete. Neb.
Both of these games are played under
the Washburn management, and the
usual price for one game admits to
both. Washburn agrees to pay the ex-
penses of the Kansas City team. 1t
must also pay the expenses of the Doane
team over Sunday in Topeka The
faculty at Doane at first refused to al
low their team to come to Topeka for a
Saturday game, for the reason that
the team would have to travel on Sun
day If it returned Immediately to Crete,
Neb. Washburn wanted the game Sat
urday because of the possibility of bet
ter attendance on that day, and had to
agree to keep the Doane aggregation
here over Sunday.
There Is not bit of doubt that if the
weather is good that there will be a big
crowd out for these two games. IF
people in Topeka won't pay one admis-
sion to see two such games as this, -
says Manager Leach, II guess they

Is looked forward to by both teams as

On the condition in which the teams
come out of these contests depends
very materially the condition in which
they will enter the game on October 20.
An unlucky injury to one nr more men
might be sufficient to turn the scale,
and give one side or the Other the de-
cided Advantage. Next week will be
busy one with both teams. Washburn
has much to do to get in shape for the
battle Its backfeld work has been
lamentably weak throughout the sea-
son, and this will tell heavily against
it unless some radical improvement can
be shown.
Speaking of the condition of the X.
U. team, a Lawrence dispatch says:
the line today, the most important be-
ing the replacing of Davies and Ackar-
man in the positions they played be-
fore the Colorado contest. Stricken
count of a call to st, Louis. so Davies
was taken and will be put in at right
tackle, while Ackarman will be found
at his old stand on the left of center.
Rouse will hold down Captain Hicks
place of left end, and if the new man
does his duty as creditably as he did
in the Colorado game there will be
very few end runs around the right
wing. The remainder of the line Will
be the same as last Saturday. and in
the back field the same men will b.
found, but just who viii play at left
half and full is not known, because
circumstances when the game started
whether Ise or Meyers would be in at
lett half and whether Russell or Nc
Carly would play full. The following
is the probable lineup: Michaels0n-
center; Ackarman, left guard Drummer.
right guard; Donald, left tackle; ~
les, right tackle; Freshman, left end;
Rouse, right end; Pooler, quarter; My
ers, Ise left half; Mccoy, right half,
and McCarty and Russell, full.
With this team the Jayhawkers will
average about ITO pounds. If none OF
these men are badly crippled the
Kansas lineup against Washburn
on the 18th will be about the
ton of Rouse at end. Captain
Hicks may be in the game by that
time. Davies will also probably be Oh
the side line and Stricken may be in
at guard. This would throw Ackar-
man back to tackle.
The Washburn game is looked
upon with fear here, and the jay
hawkers know that the Congregation
alists are ever laying for the univer
sity. A large crowd will accompany
the team to Topeka to root, and a spe-
cial train is now being arranged for.
At present but little Kansas money can
be had here on the Washburn game,
but several Topeka representatives
have written supporters of the var
sity asking for even money on the
game. The officials for the Washburn
game have not been decided upon

MAY PLAY AT ST. LOUIS.
Talk of Yost's Men Meeting Affnneap-
oils at Worlds Fair.

St. Louis. Oct. 21.-If plans of the
physical culture department at the
Worlds fair do not go astray, football
enthusiasts will have the opportunity
Thanksgiving day morning to see one
of the greatest football battles of the
season. Efforts are being made to
bring Michigan university and the uni
versity of Minnesota together in the
stadium at the fair on that morning,
and If the effort is crowned with sue
cess the greatest football battle in the
history of St. Louis is assured. The
game now hangs on the matter of A.
nancial consideration for the teams.
and if this can be arranged the game
is assured.
Last year Michigan and Minnesota
fought for the championship of the
middle west and the game was tie.
This year it again looks as though
Michigan and Minnesota would battle
for the same title, and both teams
have shown phenomenal speed SO far.
That Michigan is on par with the
big eastern teams is almost certainty.
The refusal of the eastern elevens to
play Michigan has deprived that team
of a chance to show how it compares
with those of the east, but even the
eastern experts have been forced to
Concede the Wolverines chance to
defeat Yale, Harvard or Princeton.

MURDER OR SUICIDE.
Scott City Farmer Found With Gun
by His Side.

Scott City. Kan. Oct. 21.-Frank
Yager, a well to do farmer, living ten
miles south of this city was found dead
in bed Thursday with a load of buck
shot in his left breast and a shotgun
lying by his side. The last seen of him
was last Thursday when he was in town
and it is said was trying to buy some
poison with which to kill himself, but
the druggists refused to sell 1t to him.
Opinions differ as to the cause, some
advancing the suicide theory, but the
coroner's jury decided that it was i'm
possible for him to kill himself In that
manner and that there was no evidence
produced that he had taken his own
life. His pocketbook containing thirteen
dollars was found on his person which
was untouched. 1t is supposed that he

close of the game.
Emporia had carried the ball to within

and declared time up for the half The
crowd started to leave and the Ottawa
players started for the gymnasium. How
ever, Referee Mcfarland of Emporia de-
clared that he had whistled time out and
that Emporia should have another play.
Baughman Insisted that no time had been
called out. Falls of Lawrence, who UNI
pired the game, said he heard no whistle

final decision that time was up and Cap

his refusal declared the game forfeited to
