BRYAN,s LUNGS AFFECTED.
Strain Put Upon Them at st. Louis
Was Too Great.

Lincoln. Neb., Sept 17-Authentic an
nouncement is made that the great
physical strain to which William j:
Bryan was subjected at the national
Democratic convention in st. LOUIS,
early in July, has progressed to the
point that it had become a severe me
mace to his health.
The ailment is a lung affection, ana,
although in its incipiency ana quite
likely to yield to treatment, Mr. Bryan
was advised to seek the higher and less
humid altitude of the Rocky mountain
country for a prolonged period OF re
Generation and rest. 1t was this state
of affairs which prompted the former
candidate to journey to the Grand can
yon in Arizona. two weeks ago, and for
the same reason he has now gone TO
Rawlins. Wyo.. for a stay of another
fortnight
Mr. Bryan will return from Wyoming
to make a series of campaign speeches
in Indiana. Missouri and Nebraska AT
ter that, if mis- medical advisers SO ad-
wise. he will return to the west Tor
prolonged stay.

TWO FOOTBALL CLAN IT'S.
Big Guards Added to the Washburn
Lineup.

Two big Medics have been added
to the Washburn football squad One
is Tice, who weighs 224 and is feet
inches tall: the other is Knudesen,
weight 200 and height feet II
inches.
Knudesen and Tice have both had
some football experience. knudesen
used to be in the Topeka High school.
This is his second year in the Medi-
cal college, but he has not played any
football since leaving High school
Tice has recently moved to topeka
His football experience is somewhat
limited but his weight will probably
help him to a position on the Wash
burn team.
So far neither Tice nor Knudesen
have been out in uniform, because the
new suits have not come, and none
of the old suits not in use are big
enough for them. Both were out on
the field last night, and stated that
they would be in the game if their
services were needed. The delay in the
delivery of the new football suits is
causing a great deal of trouble to the
Washburn management. The men are
obliged to practice with a limited sup
ply of shin guards, head guards, ETC.,
and hence can not get into hard
ScrimmageS.
Clifford c. Cunningham, tackle on
last years team, will be on the field
again this year. For some time he
has been In doubt about trying to
make the team, but has announced
that he will be on the field Monday.
He weighs 1875, and will be a candi-
date for his last years position.
The weather is too hot for foot
ball, but in spite of it the size of the
Washburn football squad is constantly
increasing. With the beginning of the
coming week, practice will increase
in interest. and the work on formation
plays and scrimmage will begin in
earnest.
So far there has not been a single
scrimmage. The men have been en-
gagged entirely in light practice. On
September "a the first game will be
played with the Kansas City Medics.
1t is intended that this game shall be
a try-out for a number of the new
men. Frequent changes are likely to
be made in the line and backfield, and
every man who promises to develop
into first team material will be given
a chance.
The following line indicates some
of the changes which are likely to be
made in the course of the game; those
players marked with a star have not
at this time arrived in town, but are
expected prior to the game:
Right end, R. Stewart, Thrailkill.

NEW YORK DEMOCRATS.
Explanation of Why Taggart and Par
xer Missed Each Other.

New York, Sept. lit was said at
Democratic national headquarters to-
day that Judge Parker will make an
other visit to New York within a week
or before the publication of his letter
of acceptance, and that the personal
conferences between the nominee and
mis- managers will be repeated as often
as necessary.
Just why Chairman Taggart found it
necessary to leave the city on the eve
of Judge Parker'S visit was explained
today by Mr.. Tanning, Mr.. Taggart's
chief assistant at the Demo cratic head
quarters. Mr.. flaming is vice chairman
of the Indiana state committee. Some
weeks ago, ne said, he visited that state
and found that e. consultation between
state leaders and the national chairman
was desirable. Ee promised them to
induce Mr.. Taggart to go to Indiara
and on his return to New York placed
the matter before the chairman in such
a manner that the visit was arranged.
Appointments We're made at Indianapo-
lis and French Lick Springs and the dates
fixed. 1t was not until noon of the day On
which Mr.. Ia ggart was to leave for the
west and that he was informed by Judge
Parker by telephone that the judge in
tended to come to New York. Mr.. Tag
CART explained the situation to Mr.. Par
practicable for him to cancel the arrange
ment in Indiana and Illinois. Judge Par
ker assented to this, but saw no reason to
cancel his own visit to New York city.
On his next visit, it is stated, Mr.. Tag
CART will be in New York.

Mr.. ABBOTT SAYS.
Gossip About the Personnel of Next
Years Ball Team.

A great many of the baseball fans
are asking about the makeup of the
team for 1905. Manager Abbott was
asked for a statement this morning
and outlined his plans.
"Outside of my pitchers, every man
who reports here next year will be
sure of his job" he said. "That is
the way to run a baseball team. Know
whom yau are getting, and get whom
you know and keep them. This con-
tinual changing around destroys ev-
cry semblance of unity. We cannot
afford that next year. Make a man
feel that his job is his for the year.
To do that find out whether he can
play ball before you get him, and then
get him.
