Carlisle Indian warriors took with
them the neat sum Of $13, 700 as their
snare of the gate money. Minnesota
Will place a similar sum in the bank
on account of her athletic association.
Deducting from the face value OF the
tickets the reduction for the student
tickets, the actual cash taken in by the
sale Of tickets amounted to SIS. 900.
About $500 of this was necessary to
pay the expenses OF the officials and
other items shared by both teams. The
remainder was divided equally.
The total attendance al the game was
about 10000. That figure is 5000 less
than the number announced for the big
Michigan game in. 1903. and the differ
ence in the increased gate money is due
to the greater number of reserved seat
tickets sold.

TEN FEET TO THE EARS.
Wichita Eagle Tells of Mammoth
Corn Crop in That County.


P. V. Healy has found a new variety
of corn It was grown in this county
last season, just a few acres of it, and
he declares as an expert that it beats
anything in the way of corn that he
ever has SEEN He says he has seen
tall stalks but he never had seen a
field in which there were no short
stalks at all until he saw this one.
The field in question is on the farm
of w. H. Dyer, two miles east of Clear
water The corn stands. every stalk
of it, straight as a bean pole, and so
high that the old time lies of Kansas
corn are put to shame by the truth.
Mr.. Healy declares that there is not a
stalk in the field on which the ears are
nearer the ground than eight feet. and
most of them ten or twelve feet from
the ground.
"a tall man would have to climb a
ladder if he wanted to husk that corn
without breaking the stalks" said Mr.
Healy.
1t is white corn. The ears are not
unusually large, but there are two of
them on every stalk and consequently
the yield will be good.
Il do not know what it is called,
but it beats anything I ever saw said
the man who has seen all kinds of
grain and who knows good grain when
he sees it. Il imagine it would yield
pretty we'll, but I don't see any great
advantage in raising it. The man who
was husking it said he would 11tisk
other corn for three cents a bushel
but he would have to get five cents
for this because he has to break every
stalk so he can get ito the ears. There
is lots of tall corn in that part OF the
county, but there is not another field
that shows anything like The growth
that is in this one,
Mr.. Healy brought home a stalk
and has it on exhibition in his office.
1t is easily ten feet from the ground to
the ears.@Wichita Eagle.

FOR BEING EGCED.
Clarence b. Empey Makes An
other Effort to Secure $4,000.
Goes to u. s. Court With His
Suit Against Stafford.
UP FOR TRIALIN MARCH
Eight. of the Prominent Citizens
Mentioned as Defendants.
Empey Claims His Business of
Selling Liquor Is Lawful.

Wichita, Kan, Nov. 22.-After hav-
ing failed in one attempt to secure s10,-
0O0 or any part thereof, from the city
of Stafford and eight of its citizens,
Clarence B. Empey has brought two
suits in the United States federal court
as result of deciding to try again for
damages he claims to have sustained,
mentally, physically and in chattels as
the result of being egged out of stat
ford while attempting to sell liquor for
a Kansas City wholesale liquor house.
Last June suit was filed in Wichita
by SE1nll5 ayss0but son a demurERP to his
pleadings On the part of the attorneys
for herdsfepse,i Judge Pollock ruled
that Empty could not sue the city of
Stafford and several of its citizens from
the docket.
Recently two cases were filed in the
federal court here and they are now on
the trial docket of March term of court.
One case is against the town of STAFF
ford and the other names eight resi-
dents of the city as defendants.
In his original pleadings Empey set
forth that he was on the 18th of May,
1905, peacefully following his business
in Stafford and that he was. maliciously
and Wiifully set upon by the marshal,
mayor and eight citizens of the city He
further declared that he was assaulted
with eggs.
He claims that he was damaged to
the extent Of $40. 900.
In his pleadings he mentions Mayor
]. d. Rippey, Marshal Thomas Mofti-
more, Al Holmes. Mrs. ]. H. Cook, Mrs.
N. c. Dawson, Mrs. John Carey. Mrs.
Thomas Gentry. Mrs. Nellie Hull, Mrs.
A. Carey. and Miss Cellar. The peti-
tons of the two new cases are similar
to the pleadings of the first suit.
This case attracted no small amount
of interest when 1t was filed. When it
was thrown out of court on a demur
rer to the pleadings, the manner of its
disposition was not made knNwn. Out
of it has developed two new cases which
have been set for trial in this city next
March.

CINNAMON BEEF CROP.
About f25 Tons Grown in This Terri
tory Without irrigation.

Lemert received 25 tons of sugar
beets Saturday and shipped to sugar
factor at Garden City. The growers
were Doc Jones. W. D. Kinney Will
Robins. Clyde Hanna, John Bull and
Clint Truck. The growing of beets was
largely an experiment with those who
planted this year, and the yield is not
UP to the standard, but is sufficient to
prove that even with imperfect plant
ing and cultivation, the crop is a
profitable one, as nearly all had a yield
of ten tons per acre, which, at SIS per
ton, gives a fair return. Those who
tried sugar beets this year. are so we'll
satisfied with results that they will
plant on a larger scale next season. The
beets raised here this year were grown
without Irrigation Several parties are
arranging to irrigate next year. The
crop here was about 125 tons.-Cfmar-
