FOOTBALL GAME IS OFF.
Ottawa Won't Come to Topeka satur-
day-High School Game.


The game between Washburn and
Ottawa which was scheduled for next
Saturday on the Washburn field has
been called of. On account of the
hard trip to Oklahoma City Thanks
giving day to play the Oklahoma uni
visable to play the Ottawa game and
run the risk of some of the men get
ting hurt before Thanksgiving The
Oklahoma game will undoubtedly be a
hard one and it will take more than
week to get the men in shape
Negotiations were begun last week
to get the game called or and it was
left to Ottawa. They were to have
notified Manager w. w. Stahl of the
Washburn team yesterday of their de-
cisiOn in the matter, but as not word
had been heard from them up until
this noon, Manager Stahl wired them
that the game was called off
i would have been taking a finan-
cial risk to have played the game, as
it would have taken a. good guarantee
to get the Ottawa team here This
was anothe r reason that induced Man
ager Stahl to call off the game.
The game last Saturday with St
Marys was the last home game for
the Washburn team. as the only re-
naming game on the schedule is the
Oklahoma game.
The Ottawa team however, viii play
in Topeka this fall. A Thanksgiving
game will be played a the Western
Association bali park with the Ottawa
and St. Mary's teams as participants.
This Will be the only remaining inter-
collegiate game of the season
The only game in Topeka next Sat
urday afternoon will be the game be-
tween Lawrence and Topeka high
at the latter place last Saturday by
score of 10 to 0.

ASKS REHEARING.
Witness in San Francisco Graft Case
Begs Leave to Amend

San Francisco, Nov. 20-When the
grand jury reconvened this morning to
resume its inquiry into charges Of
municipal graft and extortion Jean
Loupe, a French restaurant keeper wle
had appeared before the jury last Weo-
nesday as a witness again appeared
with the request that he wished TO
correct and reconsider" the testimony
he had given Loupe was admitted 10
the grand jury rooms and as he re-
manned behind the closed doors FOR
sometime it is believed that he was al
lowed TO take the stand again.
LOupe's action this morning is be-
lieved to have been prompted by the
rurnor' that he was to be indicted for
perjury as the result of false testimony
he is said to have given before the In
quisitorial body. It is stated that LouIe
endeaYored by false or erroneous state
ments to shield Abraham Ruef, who
was Indicted for extorting thousands u
dollars from the French restaurants.
Whether Loupe will be permitted by
the grand jurors to reconsider his tes-
timony and thus escape the indictment
that is said to be hanging over him is
a matter of conjecture.
Juror D. H. Young was again tenn
porarily excused this morning before
the investigation into the restaurant
matter. It is expected that the Jurors
will also take up today the charge that
Abraham Ruef pTacticed extortion on
O'Farrell street resorts demanding a
block of stock in the concern

THE PENALTY OLE OVFRWORK.

Work has been mans lot since the
creation. but a day of toll should not
have its penalty of pain Why is it,
then, you ask, that backache so often
follows? 1t is because the modern
tendency is to overwork to tear down
faster than nature can rebuild An
unnatural strain is thrown upon the
vital organs and more especially upon
the kidneys, which have the work of
hltering the blood free from waste and
poison.
The heavy tax of overworl,-the
strain upon the back that is so com
mon to many trades and occupations,
IS too great The kidneys begin to
fail in their work, and there is a
double danger to health. The poison
Gus matter collects in the system, and
the kidneys themselves begin to break
down.
Pain in the back is only a warming
of trouble in the kidneys. An in
Illumination has set in, and a disordered
condition of the urine soon becomes ap-
parent.
Too much or too little urine, with a
constant desire to void the secretions;
any noticeable deviation from the nor
NAL color; the appearance of a sandy
sediment. proves a disordered condition
