was SIS, 1885.
As the result of the statement made
by Cunliffe in Bridgeport that he had
sent S85 600 Of the plumber to his
brother-in-iaw, Boardman in Bristol,
representative of the Associated Press
called at the Boardman house and
asked Boardman If that was so.
Boardman. who is a young man and
the agent for the Electric Express
company of Hartford, said that he had
received no money, but that on Octo-
Der II a dress suit case came to his
house from Bridgeport, and as there
was no name on it he had not opened

Roston PIaHers Recelnts.

Boston, Oct. 20.-The post season
series between the two Boston teams
earned the players more money than
they expected. The receipts for the
six days were S9,962.56. After pay
ing expenses the remainder was
divided equally between the owners
and players, the latter subdividing
their half equally between them
selves. Twenty men shared in the
American players portion, each re-
ceiving S1O9.9s. The National play
ers' portion went to fourteen men,
each one receiving a little more than
the Americans because Of their fewer
number. Nearly all the players have
left for their homes.

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 20.-The Ne

strong, with Coach Booth at their
head, departed last night to play
Yost's unbeaten Wolverines Saturday
at Ann Arbor. on Ferry field. A stu
dent rally, in which a thousand Corn
husIer supporters participated. was
held at the railroad station before the
team boarded its train.
Booth announced that the lineup at
Michigan would be: Johnson and
Benedict, ends; Weller and Cotton
tackles; Nelson and Taylor. guards;
Borg. captain, center; Morse, quar-
ter; Little and Wilson, half backs;
Mason, full back. Booth said:
TT is not fair to Nebraska to say
that We expect to win, for Michigan
is entirely too stiff a proposition for
such a prediction. We intend, how
ever, to make the Wolverines play
football and / shall certainly be sur
prised if the score is a one-sided af-
fair. Nebraska's offense is of a high
er grade than I have ever before seen
and the Cornhuskers ought to do some
Juggling on their own account"

SHAW TAKES 900.
And Returns a Struggled Necklace to
Its Owner.

New York. Oct 20-Rather than take
chances on the result of litigation over a
So 600 pearl necklace which is now in the
custody of Collector -Strauahan, the gov
eminent will accept a check for the
amount of duty and return the jewels to
the woman who owns them, says the
Herald.
This is the conclusion which Leslie NJ
Shaw, secretary OF the treasury, reached
after comforting with Mr.. Stranahan. The
necklace was brought into this country
without the payment of duty by the wo-
man, whose name the customs officials
have concealed She was followed by Sc
crete service agents from this city to Phil
adelphia, Boston and Chicago, and was
finally informed that customs officials
were watching her. A lawyer then called
upon the collector and offered a check
for $4,000 in payment of the duty.
Mr.. Stranahan insisted upon the surren-
der of the necklace.

Lawrence, Kan, Oct. 20.-A hard
game is looked for here with Oklahoma
Saturday The home team viii be sat
isfied with a victory. Luck has been
running against them lately.
The fact is that the men are in no
shape to improve and with Meyers out
of the game and a doubt about Strick-
Ter being able to go in. the Kansas at
mOsphere looks blue and hazy.
# Stricl1ler is unable to take the
place at tackle, the coach will send
Drummer back in the line and use Braw-
ley at full. The Indians say that the
OkIahomans are heavy and play with
more precision and evenness than any
team they have encountered this season.
The Kansas line will need all the weight
obtainabl to withstand the charges of
such stars as Acton and Barrett.
