BLAME IS ALL LAID on THE JEWS
German who Comes from, Odessa says
- They Attacked Troops.

BOSTON, Dec. e6.-According to Andreas
stockberger. an immigrant who arrived
here ON the steamer Csrthagenian, the re-
cent bloodshed In Odessa was largely due
TO Jews attacking the soldiers. Stock
berger Is a German and comes from a
German settlement at Gldendorff, near
Odessa. In an interview today he said:
In Odessa ] saw the troops march down
the main street with loaded guns Before
them was the bowling mob armed with all
sorts. Of weapons and whenever a chance
appeared they would sweep down on the
soldieps and tear them to pieces. From
housetops and windows stood men and
womep.. and even children, and as the SOL
diers marched by, bombs were hurled at
them, killing scores and wounding hum
dreds at a time.
The soldiers would charge on their at
tackers, piercing them with bayonets and
shooting them with ball. Wherever the
soldiers went they were attacked. The mob
made Up entirely of Jews, was almost be-
side itself with excitement and it's only
purpose was to kill the soldiers"

NEW FOOT BALL RULES TRIED
wichita Clubs Test Ten-Nard Fro
posaI and Neither side scores.

WICHITA, Kan, Dec. Exchanges in
foot ball rules TO require ten yards gain
on three downs and permit the forward
pass were tried in a game between Wash
burn and Fairmont clubs in this city to-
day. Neither side was able TO score. WASH
burn made the ten yards gain only four
times and Paramount but three. Both sides
punted constantly and the forward pass
caused more trick plays and end runs,
ONLY four times were attempts made Ia
break through the opposing line and these
to gain.
John Outland of the Pennsylvania team
of 1899 says that under the ten-yard rule
no team can score unless twenty-fouI
points superior to it's opponents, under the
| old rules. Heavy penalties against rough
| play caused a clean game, and not =
player was injured so as to leave the
! game Ii IL the general opinion OF foo
ball men who saw the game that shaC

yards the game would have been as opeJ

is a term that aptly describes
the character and action of
our Emulsion. More than a
medicine-more than a food,
yet combining the vital prin-

reason that SCOTS Emulsion
has distinct and special
value in all wasting diseases.
There is nothing better to
