PLAN FOOTBALL
FOR AUTUMN
VARSITY BOYS LAY THEIR PLANS
EARLY
University of Southern California De-
cides to Stand by the American
Game for Another Season.
Work on Gridlron Soon

The University of Southern Califor-
mia has decided to stand bv American
football for another Season at least.
After the widespread agitation against
the game last season the faculty of the
university decided that no more foot
ball should be played under their
supervision until the rules were rad
ically chan-ed.
The rules as amended seem to suit
the faculty, and the athletic man
agement at the university has already
signed for a game with the Sherman
Indians on Thanksgiving day.
The varsity boys are looking for
ward to championship team. Most of
the boys on last years team are ex-
pected back with several new men.
The old men counted on by the foot
ball management are Elliott, SchI;e
and Nicholson, ends; Crltten, WestoVer,
Chester Haigler, Lavoni and Brown, on
the line. These men, with Burek,
Charles Haigler and White for the
back field, will make strong nucleus
around which to luilG strong team,
If dope" counts for anything.
Holmes will find 1t necessary to de-
yeop a new quarterback as young
Best. who, although new man. made
reputation as a reliable and heady
quarterback last season. has decided to
drop the game.
Probably Custen, new man from
an eastern high school, will make a
strong bid 70. the place. Custen also
has reputation as a weight man and
will materially strengthen the track
team.
Several new men are expected from
Arizona. and 1t is hoped by the uni-
verslty boys that they will turn out as
good as did Ochoa and the Haiglers
from that place.
Work will commence on the gridiron
In few days. The cunning track is to
be defined by cement curb and the
football field will be soaked. plowed

LOVER OF HOME.
Despite Great Wealth, Merchants
Life Is Simple and Quiet.

Life Is Simple ana Qu1et.
While a wizard of the commercial
world, Marshall Field never dealt in
fats. His transactions always were over
something tangible and real, and this
characteristic reached to the interior of
his home. Field was essentially a man
of family and home.
Marshall Field was married to Miss
Mamie Douglass Scott, a daughter of
Robert Scott of Ironton, Ohio, Jan. 5,
1868. Three children resulted from the
union, two of whom are still living. Mrs.
Field died at Nice, France, few years
ago, where she had gone for her health.
She had been an invalid for several
years.
The first child, Lewis Field, died when
an infants in 1866. Marshall Field. Jr.,
who shot and accidentally killed himself
last November, was born April ~, 1868,
and married Miss Albertine Huck of
Chicago The only daughter was Ethel
Newcomb Field, who was born in 1878.
She married Arthur Magic Tree in
1891, was later divorced and is now the
wife of Captain David Beatty of the
British navy. For several years Mr..
Field spent portion of his winters in
visiting his children and grandchildren
in England and France.
On Sept. of last year Mr.. Field was
welded to Mrs. Della Spencer Cation,
widow of the late Arthur Cation. Mr..
and Mrs. Field were given a cordial re-
ception on their return to Chicago, but
their happiness was soon clouded by the
death of Marshall Field, Jr., who acct
dentally shot himself with magazine
revolver at his residence.
In religion, as in everything else, Mar
shall Field always avoided display. A
steady churchgoer, what his contribu-
tons to religious institutions were will
never be known, as he was a modest
though generous giver
Perhaps no man of the wealth possess
ed by Marshall Field spent more happy
and contented hours in his later days.
His home was simple and quiet, with pri-
vate quarters for his friends-old books
and rare pictures-with which he spent
many a peaceful evening. In social life
Mr.. Field was retiring and it was sell
dom that he appeared in the gatherings
made up of what is generally termed $50
ciety." When his business was fir ished
he was invariably found at his home,
which, though expensive, is unostenta-
tious and in keeping with the plain char
acter of the man. To his children and
family Mr.. Field was always lavishly
generous. Mr. Fields kindness to his
employees, of whom there were thou
sands, was tempered only by his deter
mination to encourage industry and pro-
ficiency

STATE FUNDS SHORT.
CLAIMED THAT KANSAS TREAS
URY is OUT $4,000.
Report of Expert Investigators to
Governor Hoch Lays Blame at
Door of Present Treasurer and
Predecessor.

A shortage of $4,000 in the Kansas
State Treasury has been found by ac-
countants who have been at work on an
investigation for nine months under the
direction of Governor Hook. A sum
mary of their report has been made pub
lie by the governor. The shortage runs
through the administration of t. T..
Kelly, the present treasurer, and Frank
+. Grimes, former State Treasurer, who
served two terms. OF the total 100000
is due to missing coupons from bonds
owned by the State school funds and
$4,000 to the loss of interest on war
rants issued to the State of Kansas by
the Territory of Oklahoma. Most of the
shortage is found in the Grimes admins
trations. Disclosures of a most sensa-
fional nature concerning erasures of the
Estate property" stamp from the back
of coupons and mutilation of records in
the State Treasurer's and State Audi
tors offices are made. Grimes denies re-
sponsibility for the Oklahoma warrant
interest, saying he can account for all
the shortage except SIPS. He blames
his chief clerk, c. r. Richey, for some
of the discrepancies.

WAR SEEMS NEAR.
Believed in Washington that Ger.
many md France VIII Irinha

Believed in Washington that Ger
many and France VIII Fight.
Germany's attitude in the Morocco
question and the demands her repre-
sentatiyes will make at the coming in
ternational conference at AIgeciras
will, it is feared in Washington diplo-
matte circles here, lead to a war be-
tween the empire and France, unless
mediation induces the Kaiser to moder-
ate his views. France is determined, it
is said, not to allow Germany to inter-
fere with her plans in Morocco and
will resent by force of arms, if neces-
sary, any such interference.
That Germany's attitude on the
question has been anticipated by
France is believed in diplomatic and
army circles. The recent activity in
the French army, explained by that
nation as mere maneuvers incident to
a change in the head of the var de-
partment," it is thought proves this
belief. The French army is now in
a high state of excellence, and there is
a considerable element in the republic
that is willing to undertake q test of
strength with the Kaiser if driven to
it by Germany's avowed intention of
encroaching upon the rights of France
in Morocco.
Apparently German opinion is not a
little disturbed by the way events are
shaping. There are two sides to the
question in that country, the one which
is expressed in the tranQuilizing state
ments of the Kaiser's New Years
speech to his generals, and the other
by Prince Won Buelow's illusions to
"perils and unfathomable abysses."
1t is pointed out here that the Kali
ser counts himself more of a soldier
than of a diplomatist. In his diplo-
matte contests lie has always met dis
appointment. He has not yet tried his
military prowess. His army is larger
by a million men than when he came
to the throne, and he has been able to
keep it at the Won Moltke level of eff
cheney. He regards his navy as the
equal of any in the world save Eng
lands. In addition, he is pushing to
rapid completion naval construction
that will cost more than $6OO,00O000.
suggestive development in the
question has been the recent order for
$50,000,000 worth of cars, capable Of
transporting troops, and his proviso
that the cars must be rushed to COM
pletion. This and the massing of troops
along the French frontier is taken as
significant that, despite his words of
peace and infinite palaver, he is ready
for the worst if he cannot secure the
settlement of the Moroccan question as
he desires it.

death-bed of her father, Louis G..
Huck, the wealthy Chicago maltster,
engaged in a race with death, and
three railroad systems lent every as
sistance to enable her to reach the
bedside of Mr.. Field before the end
came. Shortly before he died Mr..
Field opened his eyes and in scarce
ly audible whisper called for his IA
vorite little grandson, Marshall Field
III.
Dr. Frank Billings, of Chicago, Mr..
Fields physician, was summoned to
New York, and Dr. Walter B. James,
DR.. Edward G. Janeway and Dr. Aus
tin f. Riggs were in constant attend
ance and everything known to medi-
cal science was employed in keeping
alight the Pickering spark of life. At
times there were alarming symptoms
of heart failure and nitroglycerin,
strychnine and digitalis were frequent
ly administered. The congested condi-
ton of the lungs failed to respond to
medical treatment. His pulse and
temperature were always unfavorable
to recovery, and to the physicians it
became apparent that Mr.. Fields vital
ity would not be equal to resisting the
attack. The cold, which developed
shortly before Mr.. Field left Chicago
and which was aggravated by the long
railroad trip to New York on January
s and 8, developed into deep-seated
pneumonia that baffled the skill of the
physicians. Among those at the bed
side, besides the physicians and nurses,
were Mrs. Field, Mrs. Marshall Field,
Jr., Stanley Field, Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
Dibblee, Jr., Norman B. Ream, Will
liam G. Beale and Robert T. Lincoln.
