We sail toward evenings lonely star

Burnt with dull carmne through and through.
Slow smouldering in the summer sky,

How sweet to watch its splendors die.

The soft breeze sreshens leaps the spray
To kiss cheeks with sudden cheer.

And through the warm deeps OF the sky
Steal faint star clusters. while we rest

THEY WANT THEM BAD.
X. U. Professor Tries to Capture
Washburn Football Players.

Manager Frank Leach of the Wash
burn team stated today that James
Green, dean of the K. u. law school, was
in Topeka Monday, and tried to induce
one of the Washburn law school stu
dents who expects to play on the
Washburn football team this fall, to
desert Washburn, and go to the State
university.
This is great business for the K. u.
professors to be in," said Mr.. Leach.
They talk about purity of athletics
and then send out their professors to
try to proseIyte our players. The man
who was approached by Mr.. Green does
not desire to have his name mentioned,
but he is not going to accept the K u
proposition He will resume his stu
will play on our team.
ITO my mind this shows that K. U.
is in a desperate need of football ma
terial, or else that its law school is

not only tried to get this football play
err to come to K. U. this season, but
when he failed in this, he urged him
next year and to keep himself clean
meantime so that he would be eligible
for the team. Evidently K. u. wants
to cripple Washburn by keeping men
them itself. 1t is just the same tao
tics that were tried earlier in the sea
son by the K. U. coach on some of the
other Washburn players.

WILSON ISN'T CONVICTED.
Jury in Case of Strike Leader Fails
to Agree.

Thomas L. Wilson, fourth vice presi-
dent of the International Association of
Machinists was tried at Wellington,
Kan, Monday on the charge of assault
upon an employee of the Santa Fe Rail-
road company, a man who was en-
ployed to work in the shops after the
strike of the machinists. The jury did
not agree.
The case will come up for trial again
before a new jury. After hearing the
evidence the jury was out for is hours
without agreeing upon verdict. Eight
of the jury stood for conviction and
four for acquittal. The judge discharg-
ed the jury and the case will be tried
again.
The case is being handled by the
county attorney and the railroad has
no hand in the prosecution.
The following dispatch was sent out
from Wellington last night:
Wellington, Kan, Aug. 29.-TodaX IA

charge of Santa F'e detectives. w. H.
johnson and Walter Emerson met
them at the station and tried to in
duce them not to go to work. Johnson

injunction against interfering with the
companys employees. All the new men
but one went to work under the protec-
ton of the officers.
