Manager Lansdon of the Kansas uni

yesterday. He stated that the sole OBJ
ject of his mission here was to see the
baseball game.
You are not down here looking after
new football material?" was asked.
"Oh, no, no indeed, replied Mr. Lans-
don. We don't do that at the UNIVERSE
ty. People don't seem to understand
that we simply use people on our teams
who come there to school. We don't get
out and hunt material" (Now, don't

ably begin practice next week at the

and we expect to have a strong team
this year. I believe that the new rules
will be very well received, and will i'm
prove the game of football We are well

S. POTTENGER IS HURT
Street Car smasIles His Wagon and
Injuries Him.

Samuel Pottenger, As years old, who
has charge of the Cloverdale dairy,
narrowly. escaped death this morning in
a collision between his dairy wagon and
a street car of the Fourth street and
cemetery line, which occurred shortly
after o'clock at the corner OF Fifth
and jackson streets. Fortunately Mr..
| POttenger did not even suffer any bro
ken bones. He received several severe
bruises about his body and may nave
some internal injuries, although this Is
not likely.
Pottenger's dairy is located on the
old BILLY Allen farm two miles to the
south of the city on the Burlingame
road. He was finishing his morning
rounds with the dairy wagon and was
driving down the hill and west on Fifth
driving a span of mules to small
dairy wagon, built on the usual plan
OF such wagons, covered front ana back
and with entrances on each side near
the center. Except for a straight ahead
view the range of vision of a driver in
one or these wagons is not very great.
About the same time that Pottenger
reached the intersection OF Jackson
street a Fourth street car came bowl
ing along north on Jackson street at the
usual rate of high speed which the mo-
tornen are accustomed to put on while
running down this street. Evidently
not seeing or hearing the car, Potten-
ger drove ahead across the street and
the car smashed into the broadside of
the wagon. The mules broke away and
ran on down Fifth street but were
caught before they had gone very far.
Before the car was stopped the wagon,
with Pottenger in it, had been pushed
down the street fully 80 feet and thrown
to the west side of the street, and then
the car ran on few feet before it was
brought to a stop.
Several men in the vicinity. including
Chief of Police Donovan and other Of
ficers in the police station, heard the
crash and when they got to the street
they saw the car tearing along with the
wagon in front of it. When the wagon
was finally thrown off they ran to it
and found POttenger still in it, damned
up in the seat with boxes and other
things in the wagon piled about him.
He was still conscious. but that was
about all. He was lifted from the wagon
and carried into the police station. DR..
6. J.. MulVane was summoned and re-
sponded in his automobile. He took
Pottenger to his Office. By the time DR..
Mulvane arrived Pottenger was able to
walk from the station to the automobile.
After a thorough examination DR.. Null
vane announced that Pottenger's injur-
les were not Of a serious character and
that none of his bones were broken.
That he escaped without serious IN
jury is little less than miraculous. Both
wheels on the left side of the wagon
were smashed into splinters and the
side of the wagon was smashed and the
windows in it broken. This broken
glass flew all over Pottenger and
piece of it cut him badly on the nose
The fender on the street car was all
smashed up but this was about the only
damage done to the car. The police did
not get the number of the car, nor the
names of the motorman and conductor.
