Haskell- oarlisle aame.

Lawrence, Kan, Jan. 21-Haskell and
Carlisle, the two big Indian football
teams of the country, have at last sue
ceeded in scheduling a game. Superin-
tendent PEARS of Haskell institute
closed a deal with the Carlisle manage
ment, and the two teams will meet next
Thanksgiving day at Cleveland, o. The
outcome of this game will be watched
with a great deal of interest by follow
ers of the gridiron game. for both teams
have won regulations for playing the
fastest and trickiest football ever
played 1t will be q contest of speed
and cleverness, and while the Carlisle
team has far the better chance on form,
still the Western Indians will probably
surprise them a trifle, for they will meet
them with the same tactics, and so far
as speed is concerned it would be hard
to find a better aggregation than the
Haskell Indians.

a wealthy merchant of Wilmot, this

$3.50 at a certain spot near Wilmot at
a certain time the boy would come home
all right, otherwise he would come
home with his eyes burned out" Watts
life was threatened should he inform
the officers of the letter.

of the sheriff, however, and the boy,
who was visiting in Winfield at the
time, was Swallowed to prevent being
kidnapped. A plan to capture the black
mailer by decoy was unsuccessful. No
attempt at kidnapping the boy or carry

DIDN'T KNOW HIMsELF.
Sad Plight of an Old Man Found in
Emporia.

Emporia, Kan. Jan. A.-The police
picked up a strange old man on the
streets here who had wandered into town
and doesn't know his own name nor
where he came from. He says he is an
old soldier and the G. A. r. post has
taken hold of the case to try and find
where he is from and who his friends
are. He says he walked into town. but
his shoes, which are new show no signs
of wear and it is evident that he came
on the train.
He has a deep depression in the back of
his head, evidently a wound received
while in the war. When asked a Ques-
ton, he rubs his hands and apparently
tries hard to remember, but to all ques-
tons he makes the reply: Il don't know;
can't remember" Another popularity
is that so far he has refused to eat any
thing Otherwise he seems to be sane. He
asked the marshal to lock him in jail for
fear he would get away again.
