| Those who have followed football
believe in it as filling a great place and

Vulnerable number of lives which are
touched by the college spirit in one
or another way. But it must be kept
pure. 1t should be swept of taint of
money of professionalism, of football
for football. We put too much stress
on victory. Winning a game is the
least of what football is or is meant to
be. We want to see it played by col
lege boys, boys to whom the game has
come as revelation, and not as an
end to which their college course is
bent. Every year the little fat editors
are preaching this sound doctrine,
along with a lot of non-sensical talk
about brutality" when they mean
that it is not a game for fat editors.
The boys will look after the game if
they are left to play it. Football is
fair in the end and the hardness of the
play, resulting in fewer injuries con-
sidering the number of players than
many other more gentle games. is an
advantage rather than a drawback.
But let there be a few more hard
faced men taking special courses
light as thin air: let there be an in
crease in the number of students liv-
ing at college beyond their means and
playing better ball than the rules al
low; and the fat editors will put their
pens behind their ears and write a
false epitaph over the grave of the

ODESSA'S BLOODY HOR-

IN RESULTS.
NUMBER KILLED Is NOT KNOWN.
The Fury of the Mob Only Ceased
From Absolute Exhaustion-There
Were Nearly 5000 Manned
and Wounded.
NUMBER KILLED is NOT KNOWN
Unequalled Mob Ferocity.

Owing to the mobs being satiated
with two days carnival of murder and
destruction by flame, the revolt against
law and order in Odessa began dying
down on Saturday, partially, perhaps,
because of lack of material upon which
to prey. Almost the entire Jewish quar-
tiers of Moldavanha, Slobodka and
Bugaiovka are devastated and their in
habitants have either been killed Or
wounded or have sought refuge in 9th
er sections of the town. 1t is impossible
TO ascertain the number of persons
killed. Up to Saturday morning 5,657
wounded persons were reported to
have been taken to the hospitals. The
whole fury of the mobs was directed
unchecked against the Jews. During
the first demonstration owe the emper-
or's manifesto and the sudden acquisi-
ton of freedom" tens of thousands of
men who had hated the Jews through
generations became drunk with the
desire for Jewish blood, swarmed into
the Jewish sections of the town and
killed for the very joy of killing.
In some instances the military aided
instead of prevented the work of ven
geance and fury which eliminated Sat
urday in the quarters mentioned.
Every Jew, man, woman or child, who
was caught was slaughtered The
methods employed in the work of
butchery were too revolving for de-
scription. Before the mornings dawn
the material had become exhausted
and the men who had for the moment
become beasts, left the wrecked sec
tons of the city, and though sullen,
were easily driven back before the
rifles of the infantry.
A trip of investigation over the Jew
ish quarters confirmed the stories of
horrors and devastation. Some bodies,
mutilated, of women and children were
still unremoved from the deserted
streets. The shops were closed and in
the wrecked houses broken furniture
was lying everywhere in heaps.
AT the beginning of the massacres,
the students militia rendered some as
sistance and saved many lives, but the
police, it is said, disarmed tie students
and even in some cases shot them with
their own Tevolvers.

safety In Proprietary Medicines.

Replying TO the charge that certain
popular proprietary medicines contain
narcotic drugs, an authority says:
Some years ago one OF the leading
pharmacists CT America. in connection
with some official work, undertook TO
ascertain, by an elaborate inquiry in
representative cities OF the country,
what percentage OF physicians pre-
scriptions contained a narcotic drug
of some kind. Out of 100000 repre-
sentative prescriptions, dispensed in
drug stores in all parts of the United
States, 1t was found that 20 per cent
contained opium or some one OF its
preparations.
Proprietary medicines are almost
invariably accompanied by the NEST
detailed and specific directions for use,
while the directions accompanying
physicians prescriptions are generally
very brief and sometimes illegible. 1t
is also true that but a moderate pro
portion of proprietary medicines con-
tain any poison or narcotic, and, when
they do, it is generally in such small
quantities or so protected by accom-
panying antidotes, as to carry with it
no danger whatever"
