A THEATRICAL MUSEUM.
treasures of the Property hoom OF
the Theatre Francois.

Great passions will ever carry 1t over
great upholstery if you give them their
chance. To this day the only setting
of the chief scene of ia Malade Ina
ginaire" at the Francois Is an arm
chair. 1t is carried on by a couple Oh
lackeys, as though it had just been re-
moved from furniture van, and Is
planted right in the middle OF tne
stage. That chair is the very one In
which Moliere, playing the part OF ar
gan in his own piece, suffered the nrst
shock of the illness that carried him
off. 1t is but one of the treasures of
house that is a perfect museum not
only of historic properties, but OF the
whole art of the stage.
In the greenroom, as M. Delorme, It's
historian, has told us, in the committee
room. in the office of the administra-
tor. in the archives, in every part OF
the theater to which the public has no
access, there is prodigious mass Of
full length portraits, of medallions, OF
genre pictures, of engravings, draw
ings, marbles, bronzes, Of statuettes.
These. with the works exhibited in the
public rooms, form a unique collection
whereof every piece belongs in some
sort to the history Of the house OF Mo-
liere.
The museum of accessories Is as rich
in its way as the museum of painting
and statuary. Here we may find the
mandolin used in "The Barber OF Sc
ville," an instrument of, rare beauty
of form, purity of tone and antiquity
Of make. Here, too. is the original gull
tar of 1.-THE Marriage of Figaro" When
the piece came out in 1854 the man
agement thought it was so sure to fail
that,it was not worth while to buy a
guitar for the hero. An instrument
was accordingly hired at 10 francs a
night. The piece ran for fifty nights
a tremendous success for that period
and in the excitement of this sur
prise the conditions on which the gui-
tar had been obtained we're totally for
gotten until the owner presented his
bill for 500 francs.-Richard Whiteing

CO-EDs ON STRIKE
Girls Won't Root Except From
Reserved Seats

The coed rooters at the university
have struck. At a meeting held yesterday
morning they decided that their efforts
were not sufficiently recognized and re-
warded by the management of the foot
ball team, and unless something is done
at once to appease them the gridiron war
riors will have no visions of sweatered
''rooter queens wildly waving their arms
and making all the noise that it is possible
for an excited young woman to make.
Heretofore the girls have had a complete
organization, and have attended all games
in force, occupying section of general
admission seats set aside for them, and
the Minnesota girls megaphone brigade
was famous not only through the West,
but even received favorable mention from
the student publications of some of the
great Eastern universities.
But al this may be no more. AT the
meeting yesterday Miss 10 was elected
business manager, and all the affairs of
the brigade placed in her hands. with in
StructionS not to call a meeting unless
the football management voted them re-
served seats. If the demand is granted a
meeting will be called and regular officers
elected, but otherwise they have no
systema tized roofing. confining their eff
fort to the spontaneous applause of good
plays, and that absolutely necessary when
the team is in tight place, which their
loyalty to-the university will not permit
them to omit
As the Nebraska game is rapidly ap-
preaching something must be done at
once. but the management refused to dis
cuSS the matter before the co-edS petit
ton was presented to them.

With the team in first-class condition
DR.. Williams was content to run them
through their signals yesterday afternoon,
and in order that all might get into the
game fast and strong there was no scrlm-
mage The men are in good shape for to-
days game and they will line up against
the Grinnell aggregation in trim to roll
up a comfortable score.
Grinnen arrived in Minneapolis last
night and the men appeared to be some
what heavier than the Gophers We're led
to expect. They have a top heavy aInbi-
ton to return to their college with a
smaller score than did Ames and d~are pre-
pared to fight for every inch of ground.
Their chances in this respect depend
entirely upon the game they put up, and
if Minnesota does not get through for
more touchdowns than they did against
Ames it will mean that Grinnell has a
much better team.
In the Ames game there were several
of the regular Gopher linemen out of the
play. while today all the old-timers will
be working, and this should add consjd-
erably to the scoring abilities of the team.
Coach Fisher has been working his men
hard for this game. which is the big
thing on their schedule. and as they stood
around the hotel lobby for few moments
last night they certainly looked to be fit.
The varsity rooterS will be out in
abundance this afternoon and the first
real roofing of the season viii be INDUCED
in. The occasion in itself does not war
rant any reckless vocal expenditure. but
the idea is to get the throats limbered
up for the game with Nebraska next
Saturday The game this afternoon will
be called at o'clock and the halves will
be of 20 minutes duration.

TYPHOID FEVER LAYS
TOM SHARKEY LOW
Microbes Land on Puaiist and Sailor
Fighter Takes Count

NEW YORK, Oct. 21-Tom Sharkey, at
one time one of the most rugged fighters
in the ring and capable of standing any
amount of punishment, seems to be sus-
eeptible to minor ills. The sailor boxer,
who gave Champion Jim Jeffries his hard
est battle. hasej just recovered from an at
tack of typhoid fever which confined him
fort was made to keep the matter quiet
but Sharkey's disappearance and subse-
quent investigation led to the information
that the once great fighter and champion
ship possibility was seriously sick at his
home on Rutherford place.
By those who know the sailor intf-
mately it is said that he had a very mar
before he is able to resume training for
any battles. 1t is some time since Sharkey
has shown his form of three years ago,
and his showing with Munfoe, when he
gave out after four or five fast rounds,
convinced them that he is not the Sharkey
of old.

NEW YORK. Oct. 2f.-Hopes of a foot

revived by a report that Reiter, the
Princeton halfback. has gone to Ann Ar

which may bring the eleven East.
With the failure of Columbia and Mich
igan to come to terms, it is understood
that the matter was taken up immediate
ly by Princeton advisers. and Reiter'S
journey is the result. If the proposal is
