Unique Birthday Celebration.

unique nsFtnudy ScicUFdt1om
Menasha. Wis, Aug. 1S.-~-One of the
most unique birthday celebrations ever
held in the city, and possibly in the en-
tire state. took place at the home Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas Mackin in this
city Four gcuerations were repre-
scented at this ga...ering and the most
notable feature is the fact that each
representative of generation was
born on the sixteenth day Of August.
Mrs. Mary Mackin. the great grand
mother, was born in Milwaukee on
Aug. Is, 1885. Thomas Mackin, her
son, was born in Milwaukee on Aug.
IL. 1855. John Mackin, a son of Mr..
and Mrs. Thomas Mackin, was born
in this city on Aug rs. 1878. and
Raphael. the 5-year-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. John Mackin, was also born

SEES BRIBERY IN
LA CROSSE JAIL
Sheriff Believes Money Was Used tO
Aid Escape of Cunningham
and TrainOr.

Lacrosse, Wis, Aug 19.-Sheriff
Faugen says there is every indication
that money was used to get tools to
Andrew Cunningham, and perhaps to
Earl Trainor, the prisoners who es-
capped from the Lacrosse Jail In the
case of Cunningham, the prisoner was
constantly guarded by prison en-
ployes, and it seems almost impossible
that tools could have been sent to his
cell without the knowledge of some
one about the Jail.
He was never allowed near Win
dow, nor We're any of the prisoners
friends allowed to see him. He was
watched while he ate and no oppor-
tunity was given him to get an eating
knife or other tool at that time. Sher-
iff Hangen seems to welcome the
shakeup in his all force. and is
anXiously awaiting the arrival Of
United States secret service men.

FOOTBALL CAMPAIGN
is ON AT STANFORD
11a MEN READY TO CARRY THE
CARDINAL BANNER
Fifty Are Old Men and Some Have
Seen Warfare on tho Grldlron.
Coach flanagan Believes Varsity Is
Up Against Hard Proposition

Special to The Herald.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Sept. 10.
The first gun of the football campaign
was fired here Friday night, when
several enthusiastic students gathered
in Encina hall to listen to addresses by
Coach flanagan and others and make
merry with college songs and yells.
After the formal program was finished
all those present desiring to play foot
ball signed up with the coaches. One
hundred and eighteen men handed in
their names, fifty Of whom were old
men, and the remaining sixty-eight
freshmen. This is the largest number
of men that ever signed up for football
at Stanford, and this list will be mater
tally increased during the next few
days by men who were not at the
rally.
Coach flanagan said in part: I'VE are
up against hard proposition this year.
and 1 am sure most of you realize it,
SO there is no danger of over-confdence.
Only three men of last years team are
back, but they are men who play the
game from start to finish, and play
clean football. They will set standard
for the varsity, and around this trio
we will try to develop a team"
While but three of last years varsity
return, the college is not fearful as to
the outcome of the football season. Two
years ago flanagan developed a team
from a much weaker squad than he has
this year, which held California's
veteran team down to a tie score, 6-6.
Now there is a wealth Of good second
team material to draw upon. Besides
these candidates are Rook are Crow,
two star backs, who were not eligible
to play last season. The three old men
to return are Capt. Chalmers, half;
Stump" Stott, quarter, and Thompson,
guard. Considering everything there
fore, Stanford partisans do not view
the varsity outlook with alarm.
Perhaps never before in Stanford his
tory has the outlook for a winning
freshman team been so bright. The ma
jority of the sixty-eight who have
already signed up are very heavy, and
not a few Of them are men of much ex-
perience. Judging from physique and
reputation several of them have a good
chance of making the varsity before the
season closes. Among the candidates
for the baby team several hail from
Southern California. Among them are
M. Adams, D. S. Baremore, H. V. Dodd
and P. r. johnson OF Los Angeles; c.
owen, Pasadena; H. r. Stoltz, Red
lands; G. w. Lull, Pomona; ]. Parned,
