DIES MONIES, Dec. 0.-(speoiaI. Hon.
b. II. Buxton, the founder OF the town of
Buxton in Monroe county, was caller at
the Office of Governor Cummins today and
was in conference with the governor OH the
matter OF the Incorporation OF the town OF
Buxton. The grand jury OF Mahaska county
had petitioned the governor TO recommend
in his message q law requiring towns OF
over 800 population to incorporate Buxton
has 5000 and over. Concerning the matter
Mr. Buxton said today: THE movement to
get the town incorporated comes from the
saloonkeepers. If incorporated the popula-
ton of over 5000 would entitle the saloon
keepers 10 operate under the mulct law,
which they cannot do now. The Monroe
county grand jury keeps them all shut up.
They have TO either obey the law or move
out. Only little of the town extends into
Mahaslca county and the chief trouble is
from that source, as the Mahaska authori-
ties are not 80 vigilant about enforcing the
law. The coal company owns all the houses
and property and II has offered TO pay the
expense of all the extra deputy sheriffs
necessary 10 keep the law enforced The
town is a great deal better governed with
out being incorporated than II would be Il
incorporated"

COLUMBIA FACULTY. IN CHARGE
Announcement That New Athletic
scheme Has Been Devised.

NEW YORK. Dec. 0-The decision Of
Columbia university council, which is OK.
pected finally to settle the fate Of foot bell
at the university. will not be announced
until Friday or Saturday. The council met
yesterday and arrived at conclusion,
which il was explained would be given 10
the students today. The fact that the de-
cislon is TO be withheld until the beginning
of the Christmas holidays is taken by the
undergraduates as further indication that
the decision is adverse,
Tho Columbia Spectator, the student pub
lication. in its issue today declares that the
councils decision was withheld for the pur-
pose OF avoiding any demonstrations by the
students Dean Sewers OF the school of ap-
piled sciences. In an informal address 90
one OF his classes today, said that the
faculty had decided upon q big athletic
scheme which would place Columbia in a
unique position IN the college world. The
new athletic system, he said would be
something OF q revelation to the students.
He advised them not to get excited or act
hastily. but to trust the faculty to do the
best thing for Columbia.
Dean Sewers remarks are believed 20
I mean that the faculty itself will manage all
the colleges sports in the future, putting
them on sound basis.
