The football schedule for next fall

contain some radical changes from

what schools will be dropped is nor

dropped. Only two of these schools
will be played next fall.

CALDWELL TRIAL CLOSING UP.

salina. Kan. Dec 21.-It is not
probable that the Caldwell murder
case will 60 to the jury today. The
court placed no limit on the time for
arguments and Thursday was con-
sumed by two attorneys. 1t is hardly
possible that T. L. Bond, for the de-
Tense, and c. w. Burch, for the state.
will be able to complete their argu-
ments today. Judge Reese read his
instructions to the jury in the morning
in the Caldwell trial. Under the in
structions of the court the jury must
either find Mrs. Caldwell guilty of
murder in the first or second degree or
acquit her. In the two former trials
the instructions have included man
slaughter in all degrees.
Mrs. Caldwell was accompanied in
court by her five children. daughter
in-law and one grandchild.
Immediately after the judge con-
cluded the reading Of his instructions.
Judge Thompson Of Minneapolis, as
sociate counsel for the state, addressed
the jury. His arraignment of the ac-
cused woman was very severe. He
was followed by z. C. Millikin for the
defense. Mr.. Millikin emphasized the
testimony of the expert witnesses as
corroborating Mrs. Caldwells testi-
mOny.

The Holiday Vacation VIII Continue
Seventeen Days.

When the public schools of the city
close this afternoon a holiday vacation
of seventeen days will ensue for the pu-
pills and teachers as well. The schools
Will not open again until January Z, and
pupils and teachers alike will probably

of them feel with reason that they have
earned after the arduOuS studies and Ia
bors Of the last three months.
In all of the schools in the city, with
the exception of the high schools, closing
exercises for the term were held They
consisted in the main of recitations, mu-
sic Of one sort or another, debates ard
the reading of essays, and in good
many instances, through the subjects
for the Rotations selected, the class of
music sung, and the themes for essays
and debates, they took on the nature of
Christmas celebrations. But no partic-
ular arrangements to make them such
had been made. except in one room In
the State Street school and also in the
Quinton Heights school, where the chill
dren had Christmas trees of the merely

However, it was sort of a Christmas
day with all of the teachers, for there
was not one of them who was not re-
membered with some sort of a gift from
each and every one of their pupils Some
than the efforts of embryo artists with
their water color paints, but these to the
teachers were quite as acceptable as the
more pretentious gifts.
