himself he grabbed and then embraced
the main screen-shafting which tore
him from the scraper line, but whirleC
him about the shafting at terrif,

Fellow-workmen fortunately heart
his cries, and after some minuteq hac
the machinery stopped; but every

his person with the exception of hi.
stockings and shoes.
When released it was found that hi.
head, face, body, arms and legs wer,
injured, but no bones were broken.
How he ever held on to the revolvins
so long puzzles the officials
His physician says he will be about il

Chicago Thinks Minnesota Football
Game VIII Answer.

Chicago, Sept. 1S.=All regret over
the loss Of the annual Michigan foot
ball game has disappeared at the Uni
versity Of Chicago. The annual game
which has for years been one Of the
big football contests of the west will
not be played this year. but the feeling
on the part Of the Chicago students is
one of satisfaction rather than regret.
The Minnesota game is now the big
game Of the maroon sch edule. and It
has filled the place left vacant by the
adjustment of the Michigan game. to
the entire satisfaction of the reoters
here. The general feeling is that
there will be a better exhibition Of
sportsmanship in the n1aroon-gopher
game than has ever marked the an
nual Chicago Michigan contest.
