Games for University

Illinois Gossip---IoqUa
Outlook.

Despite the football reform move
ment the University of Minnesota at
Minneapolis has arranged for five good
championship games. By many the
schedule is considered the best which
the GOphers have had for years.
With the exception Of the big game
with Chicago, Nov. 10, all the games
will be played on the home grounds.
The season opens Oct. n with the
Ames game. The following Saturday
brings the strong team from Nebraska.
On Nov. II the Carlisle Indians will
appear. This game should furnish q
means Of comparing Minnesota with
eastern colleges. The final game Of
the year comes Nov. "a with Coach
Sheldon's team, representing the Uni
versity of Indiana.
With such a schedule as the above
the Minnesota enthusiasts cannot COM
plain.
Heretofore DR.. Williams has been
rather slow in bringing his team to
top notch condition, and hard games
in the early part of the season have
shown Minnesota to be undeveloped.
Coach Williams will have hard task
to I'LL the vacancies in his team. OF
the veterans there will be six of last
seasons regulars back. The center
position probably will fall to Bandelon
or Stafford. Both men played last year
and with that experience should be-
come star players. Vita and Dan
Smith are both expected to return and
brace up the center position on either
side. Brush will be missed at right
tackle, and it is doubtful whether Case
can become eligible in time to be with
the squad.
Ittner should make good record at
left tackle. He is a powerful man
upon offense as we'll as defense. Bob
Marshall, the colored boy who was
picked for the "all western" end, will
again be in the game. The other end
position must be filled by a new man.

versity of Illinois camp, already blue

May Have Important Matters to Dis
 cuss Tonight.

The city council may be called
 On to discuss some matters of ex- t1eme importance to the city tonight, when the councilmen will hold their regular session.
 It will be remembered as announc- ed exclusively in the columns of the Graphic more than week ago, that the sanitary committee has under consideration the matter of reorganiz ing the city board of health, with scme important changes, both in plans and in personnel of the organi- z;.tion. Owing to the incompleteness of the committees plans the matter was not brought up at the last ses- sion of the council, but there is strong talk of the matter being preached to- night On the other hand, it is believ- ed that efforts are being made to have the committee leave the whole matter alone.
 The recent injunction suit to re- strain the city from enforcing a col lection of $25 for connections with the new lateral water main on Fourth avenue may likewise come in for a share of the co,lncilmen's attention.
 The vetoing of the resolution abol- iahing the office of city detective calls for further action by the council, and i, is difficult to predict whether or not the mayors action will be sustained. Mayor White vetoed the measure on the ground that it caused a decrease in the police force, which, he declares, i:, already too small to properly police the city. In this view many others concur, and it seems probable that the council will make provision for maintaining the force at it's present number or even increasing it, if the rev man is to be placed at the union eepot. as suggested In this connec- tion should be mentioned the coun- cil's probable action, too, in the mat ter of raising the chiefs salary. The original proposition was to raise it from $1O0 to $125 per month, but the police committee compromised on s11O. reporting favorably on this. The It port was never acted upon. however. It is the generally expressed opinion that the chiefs salary is inadequate, and the probability is that the coun- cil will raise it tonight.

NAVAL APPROPRIATIONS.

The bill approprlatng nearly one hundred million dollars for bl!, Eavy has been completed in the house ana will no doubt be passed by botn branches. An effort was made to de feat the appropriation for tfe largest battleship of it's class in the world, but without avail. This is the day of big things. We have monster loco motives, sky.scraping buildings and awe inspiring ocean passenger and eX- press steamers, and now 1t Is. to be the giant warship. The United States are to hava the biggest battleship afloat. Secretary Bonaparte has an, nounced that battleship of 1o,40O tons displacement is to be built, and naval enthusiasts. especially the ship building and steel trusts are dCight- ed. Such craft will be. for time, at least the largest of its kind in the world, having about 1,500 more dis placement than the new British bat tleship Dreadnaught, of which so much has been heard since it's launch ing recently.
 The rivalry in naval constructions nowadays appears to be in the line of building the biggest vessels. There are already under way in this country four battleships of the Connecticut type of 16,OOO tons, and the Michigan and the South Carolina. of the same size, will be begun soon. Thus it will be seen that the newest pro- posal is an advance of nearly 3.5oO tons over anything this country has acquired in the past. But this move ment did not originate in the United States Togo's flagship, the MikGsa, vas of l5.200 tons. and recently Japan has decided to build several more yes sels 5000 tons larger That country is also preparing to build at least one war vessel of 19.500 tons displace- ment. which. if built, will be greater than even Secretary Bonaparte's dream. The largest battleship owned by France is the Patrie, of the some what modest proportions Of lf,S6H tons. It will be eclipsed. however,
