SNAPS BOY
MAY DIE
LEO sTRoHMEYER OF IOWA CITY
MEETS WITH TERRIBLE Ac-
cIDENT IN THE FIRST
sCRIMk. AGE.

Iowa City, Oct 7.-(special)-To
the layman, a modern miracle" may
save the life Of Leo Strohmeyer, the
17-year-old football player Of the
Iowa City high school, whose spinal
column snapped In. the first scrim-
mage with the Cedar Rapids high
school eleven on Iowa field, Saturday
afternoon.
The unconscious boy was carried
to the University Homeopathic hospi-
tai, where he was operated on, dur
Ing the night, as the only means Of
saving his life.
The spine was cut open at the sec
ond dorsal vertebra, below which, to
the extremities, Strohmeyer was abb
solutely paralyzed. The pressure on
the spinal cord was relieved, and the
injured athlete on Sunday, began to
show Improvement. The operation Is
pronounced completely successful, and
the surgeons today have hope that
the boy will not. only, live, but will re-
cover the use of his physical powers.
The Iowa City board of education
which had condemned and forbidden
football, as angerous, during the past
seven years, and had removed the
ban but few weeks ago, may recon
slider its action as a result Of this
startling accident.

Chicago Pastor
Chides President
For 11''a',liin.g q Drink


Chicago, Oct, President Roose-
velt was denounced for drinking cham
pagne at the st. Louis banquet last
week by two Chicago ministers in
their sermons yesterday The Rev.
Melbourne P. Boynton Of the Lexing-
ton avenue Baptist church, and the
Rey. Frank G.. Smith Of the Warren
avenue Congregational church, were
the presidents critics:
Concerning President Roosevelt and
the chamagne episode, the Rev. Boyn-
ton said:
President Roosevelt In his curbing
Of the great trusts is doing magnifl-
cent public service. 1t Is not our pur-
pose, however, that he destroy those
lions, but simply that he tame them.
Recently. however, this lion tanner has
weakened in the presence of an evil
more gigantic and diaoolical than was
slavery in the days Of the immortal
Lincoln.
Sees Lion Tanner" Fallen.
"It is reported that upon his visit to
st. Louis. at a public luncheon, in the
pagne. Is it true? Can 1t be possible
that our lion tanner has gone down to
deep, igominious defea I before the
great American skunk? President
Roosevelt ought to know that in this
he has outraged the best American
sentiment. There is no tide setting
in American society today, running
swifter or rising higher than is the
temperance sentiment.
'The man who defies that sentiment
will be overwhelmed by it and forever
retired from public service.
If 1t is true that our president has
offended the best American sentiment
he owes an apology, or at least an ex-
planation TO the nation.
'This must be in the nature of a
momentary weakness on the presi-
dents part, for which, doubt not he
is in deep repentance. Let us not
speak hastily or disrespectifully Of our
great and noble president, for we thus
rebuke him for what we believe to be
a very damaging example on his part.
Drinks Foul Monster.
"He should know That in single
drop Of champagne is concentrated
for the moment the foulest monster in
American society today, and that to
drink wine under these circumstances
is a lamentahle affair. He ought to
have heard the sobbing of the widow,
the crying of the children. and the
groaning of the wrecks of humanity,
stumbling down the slippery way to
hell because of this gigantic evil"
For the *sake of the weaker
brother" the Rev. Frank G. Smith,
pastor Of the Warren avenue Congre-
gational church, corner of Warren and
Albany streets, believes that President
Roosevelt should abstain from cham
pagne and other liquors. The subject
of his evening sermon last night was,
The Drink Habit a Curse"
